Chapter 197: The Power of the Horse Lance
Seeing that Wang Hu began to charge, Fat Lu was not to be outdone. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info holding the reins of the horse in one hand, holding the horse lance in the other hand, and placing the lance flat to make a spur. Then he clamped the horse's belly and shouted: "Arrogant bandit, give your grandfather's life!" ”
Lu Chenhuan's horse lance is actually not as heavy as it looks on the outside. On the contrary, the horse lance after the Dashun Dynasty is not like the previous dynasty. Due to the large-scale use of standard cold weapons, generals generally use easy-to-make spears on horses, and those with great strength use broadswords, halberds, axes, hooks, hammers, etc. And because the horse lance is too expensive to make, it is not affordable for ordinary generals. Therefore, even in the Great Shun, few people will use a horse lance.
At this time, cold weapons were also almost at their peak. There are dozens of guns alone. In addition to the horse-pounding spear that specializes in dealing with cavalry, there are also double-hook guns, single-hook guns, ring guns, plain wood guns, crow guns, key guns, shuttle guns, fade guns, Taining pen guns, short-edged guns, grab guns, Zaoli guns, crutch guns, crutch guns, crutch guns, etc., there are many patterns, depending on what personal preference uses.
And there are several kinds of knives, such as the well-known glaive knife, as well as the knife, the bending knife, the phoenix mouth knife, the halberd knife, the eyebrow knife, the pen knife, etc., and there are many patterns. What's more, they will use a smashing weapon, such as the famous mace, don't think that the mace is used by nomads, on the contrary, the first to use the mace is the Han themselves.
In addition to the mace, it is a hammer. But both maces and hammers are extremely heavy weapons, and ordinary people and horses can hardly afford them. Therefore, smashing weapons are still mostly sticks. The water and fire stick used by Wang Hu is also a kind of stick, which belongs to a lighter level of stick, and cannot be used by the people. There are also many kinds of sticks, such as hook sticks, big sticks, Qi Mei sticks, three-section sticks, big stick sticks, hand stick sticks, rod sticks, coiling dragon sticks, etc., all of which are heavyweight sticks, long and heavy, and they are either killed or injured when they are hit.
But the weapons mentioned above are not as good as a horse lance! One can imagine how expensive the price of the horse lance is. The production of a horse lance is also extremely complicated, the cost is quite high, and it is not surprising that a horse lance can be sold at a sky-high price.
The lance is shaped like a spear, but the blade is much longer than the spear, reaching more than two feet. There are obvious armor-piercing edges on the blade of the horse lance, with eight sides, and ordinary armor such as fish scale chain mail, iron circle armor, and iron sheet armor are broken with one blow under the armor-breaking lance.
The high-quality horse lance is not directly cut from a wooden pole, but is made of high-quality extension wood and peeled into a fine scorn of uniform size and thickness. This Tuomu is also known as mulberry wood, which is a precious kind of mulberry wood, and the god arm crossbow is also made of such mulberry wood.
After the mulberry is made into fine scorn, it is necessary to soak the fine scorn in oil repeatedly, about a year's time, soak until it is no longer cracked and deformed before it becomes a material, and then take out the fine scorn, air dry it in a few months, and then glue it with the top glue paint, wrap the outer layer with hemp rope, wait for the hemp rope to dry thoroughly, and then coat it with raw lacquer, wrap it in kudzu cloth, dry a layer and wrap a layer, until the hammer body is cut with a knife and makes a metallic sound but does not crack, this lance body is qualified. Although this lance is made of wood, it is stronger than iron and stone, and it has the flexibility of wood, so it can be said that it has the strength of gold and wood at the same time.
After the body of the lance is made, remove its head and tail, the front is equipped with a steel lance, and the back is a red copper lance, even if it is a literati, seeing such a well-made horse lance, it will also give birth to a sense of pride, which shows the degree of popularity of the horse lance. Not to mention anything else, that appearance alone has captured a large number of men who advocate force.
A horse lance naturally cannot be made so easily. After the blade is installed, it has to be constantly adjusted. To use a hemp rope to hang at the tail of the lance two feet, the whole Zhangba horse lance can be in mid-air like a scale rod at both ends without falling or falling, so that it is a qualified product. In this way, the military commander can ride on the horse, so that he can keep the tip of the lance forward without the slightest effort. The resulting lance is light, tough, and strong. Generals can charge with horsepower, or swing them in melee combat.
It takes three years to make a horse lance, and the success rate is extremely low. The Sangtuo wood used can be made into ten divine arm bows. So that a good horse lance, which has a price, often attracts the children of wealthy families to buy it as soon as it comes out. The price has also skyrocketed from the market price of 3,000 guan to 5,000 guan, or even 10,000 guan.
It can be said that those who can afford to use the horse lance are either rich or expensive. Lu Chenhuan's horse lance was carefully built by a famous lance maker at his own expense, and it took four years to complete. During this period, the cost is much higher than that of ordinary horse lances.
This is like a business card of a military general, Lu Chenhuan spent a lot of money to build this horse lance, naturally in order to win a good impression of the boss, so that in just more than ten years, he was promoted to the position of the commander of the infantry army. In addition, Lu Chenhuan is also powerful, and his single-handed lance method is worthy of everyone, and he has worked hard.
No, just after the confrontation with Wang Hu, the judgment was made.
As soon as he exchanged blows, Wang Hu only felt a strong force coming from the opponent's lance, and he smashed out the water and fire stick with all his strength, but it was just a slight deflection of the direction of the horse lance's attack.
The horses of the two were extremely fast, and they could only exchange blows when they charged, and between the lightning and flint, there was a sonorous sound of gold and iron between the spear and the fine iron water and fire sticks. Then the two were out of place, and they had to turn their horses' heads before they could attack again.
That's it, Wang Hu saw that this fat man is by no means simple! Because at this moment, his hands and tiger's mouth are numb. The strength of this fat man is amazing. Wang Hu secretly complained: "It's miserable, it seems that I am going to die here today." This fat man, so powerful, if he knew that I would run as far away as possible, saving my life is the best policy......"
And where Lu Chenhuan has just been, but he has just used eighty percent of his strength, which can be regarded as a warm-up. He turned the horse's head and exclaimed excitedly: "Happy, happy!" I didn't expect you, a tiger, to still have some ability, come again! ”
At this moment, Wang Hu also turned the horse's head, and secretly gritted his teeth and said: "That's it, let's die, if you take this blow again, you will run for your life!" "He has already entered the range of the forbidden army behind him at this moment, and if he doesn't return to the horse fighting general, I'm afraid he will die under the bow and crossbow of the forbidden army. There is no way, retreat is death, advance is death, only continue to charge the way of life.
Wang Hu mustered up Yu Yong and began to charge again. When the big horse first went into battle, he seemed to be quite excited. Lu Chenhuan's eyes were hot, and he thought to himself: "This yellow-faced tiger, his martial arts are not good, but the horse is very good." What if this horse had been replaced by me? ”
I made up my mind to take the horse, and my mind to kill Wang Hu also decreased a lot. Although there are only more than 1,000 people in front, I don't know if there is an ambush. The safest way is to win the horse in battle.
Thinking of this, Lu Chenhuan also became excited, he was huge, although the horse under his crotch was good, it was not a famous breed, he could only afford him, if he rode for a long time, he would not be able to bear the weight, and he would need to be carefully fed for a few days to recover.
But Wang Hu's horse is different, it is a Dawan horse, which is equivalent to a Ferrari in a car. Lu Chenhuan's horse is equivalent to Volkswagen, although it is good, but it is certainly not as good as Ferrari, right? (To be continued.) )
