Cheng Liu knows that his physical fitness is strong, and he is strong in confrontation, not in the confrontation of these lack of physical skills, so that his advantages cannot be brought into play at all.

Wen Liang saw that he didn't speak for a long time, and couldn't help but tease: "Cheng Daguan is this afraid? ”

The mountain bandits behind the stockade suddenly laughed, brandishing sticks, knives and guns in their hands.

Cheng Liu waved his hand: "It's decided!" ”

Although he agreed, Cheng Liu was really not confident.

Wen Liang shouted, "Fetch my longbow!" ”

Before the longbow could be presented, Cheng Liu's mind had already begun to analyze it closely.

The most used in the Han Dynasty was the recurve compound bow, which simply put, had a maximum range of about 150 meters. Of course, the European English longbow can reach about 15 to 18 meters, but the actual effective range is about 150 meters.

However, Cheng Liu was taken aback when he saw the longbow in Wen Liang's hand, after the perfect arm span of this longbow was pulled away, the range could at least exceed one hundred and fifty meters after the pull was full, that is, with all his strength, it might be able to reach a distance of one hundred and sixty meters.

This may be a little different from the historical record, but Cheng Liu doesn't think much in his heart.

When the national strength of the Han dynasty was declining, the bow and arrow were improved with the siege weapons of the Qin Dynasty, which originally required two people to shoot arrows with bows, and later derived from the amazing arm strength of the martial artist can be used by one person.

And in the gradual improvement of the later period, a more flexible weapon of the repeater was born.

But before, the longbow in Wen Liang's hand was definitely one of the powerful recurve compound bows, but it was hardly seen in Danyang County.

"It's a good bow and arrow!"

Cheng Liu couldn't help but admire, and was already muttering in his heart, after Wen Liang was brought under his command, this manufacturing technique had to be implemented in Danyang County, and with his understanding of the repeater, he would remake a set of war weapons.

Wen Liang laughed and said: "My grandfather left me this bow, and on the battlefield back then, he used this bow to kill countless enemies, but it's a pity ......"

Speaking of this, his eyes suddenly became a little cloudy.

"Well, I'll let you see how powerful this longbow is today."

The wind blows, and the people on both sides hold their breath at the same time.

A person took the broken clay pot and walked out a hundred steps away, and hung it on a tree, because it was carrying the sunlight on his back, so as long as he aimed at the broken jar, he would be dazzled by the sun, but Wen Liang raised the bow and arrow in his hand, and almost instantly pulled the bow, and with a bang, the arrow shot straight over.

Almost at the same time, the sound of broken jars breaking sounded on the other side.

"Congratulations, the crockpot is broken!"

Wen Liang was very satisfied, and threw the longbow in the direction of Cheng Liu.

"It's your turn, little white face."

Cheng Liu smiled helplessly, in ancient times, his good-looking skin was indeed a little delicate, even if he had watched it for three years, he would still be handsome when he washed his face every morning.

"What's the longest range of this bow?"

Cheng Liu looked at Wen Liang and asked seriously.

Wen Liang is no one, this precious bow and arrow is even held when he sleeps, and he is more familiar with it than himself.

"The farthest is only 120 paces, but the arm strength that needs to be stretched is as much as 100 paces, that is to say, the most effective range is within 100 steps, otherwise it is easy to lose the target."

Cheng Liu nodded, and said very pretendedly: "Then hang it on the two trees in the back, yes, it's the crooked neck tree!" ”

Wen Liang was stunned for a moment, and finally couldn't help laughing.

"I said, Brother Childe, you should have misunderstood what I just said, this distance is more than one hundred and twenty steps!"

Cheng Liu smiled: "If it's just the same distance, if I win, you can only be regarded as similar in strength, but I have a few more steps than you, and then I win you as a person, you should have nothing to say, right?" ”

Since it is a recruitment, it is necessary to convince the subordinates.

Bandits like this are used to being free and casual on weekdays, and it is common for them to disobey the leader's arrangement.

So Cheng Liu simply didn't do it endlessly, since he was competing, he would let them lose and be convinced.

"Okay, whatever you say is what you say, but if you lose, what you said before counts?"

"Naturally count, you can see!"

At this time, Dian Wei quietly leaned over and reminded in a low voice: "Lord, this bow and arrow is not so easy to pull, if I am not mistaken, this string is a kind of animal tendon." The key is that this bow was handed down by his grandfather, how can a bamboo bow last so long, so the range is indeed limited......"

Cheng Liu didn't expect that Dian Wei knew a lot.

immediately praised: "Yes, yes, you are still very smart, this bow is indeed the same as you said, but you missed a little, this bowstring is not only animal tendons, but also hemp rope on it, so under long-term use, it is still not seriously worn." ”

"In addition, this is indeed a bamboo bow and arrow, but with material added in the middle to increase the elasticity, it should have been passed from the grassland, or his grandfather may have killed the enemy at the border pass, so it passed into his hands."

Cheng Liu said so much in one breath, and found that Dian Wei looked confused, and immediately thought that there were no such statements in this era, so he had to let him stand far away, so as not to accidentally hurt him later.

Wen Liang was amazed, because this longbow was in Cheng Liu's hand, and it was perfectly matched, as if this bow and arrow belonged to him.

He suddenly remembered what his grandfather had told him.

"Those who are good at bows are only invisible in taking a bow, and they are like arrows on the string, majestic in all directions. The bow is not good or bad, but the one who uses it well ......"

"Hey, gentle, where's the arrow? Give me a bow by light! ”

Wen Liang reacted immediately, he was too fascinated by it, and couldn't help but be conquered by this unique personality charm.

"Give him the quiver!"

Cheng Liu took the quiver and carried it directly behind his back.

After holding his breath and concentrating, he directly set up his bow, faced the dazzling sunlight, and shot the arrow with a bang.

Bang!

The sound of the crockpot breaking sounded, and Dian Wei and the others immediately began to cheer.

However, Cheng Liu did not put down his bow and arrow, took out another arrow, and shot it directly at the position of the arrow that had just been fired.

It was about half a cup of tea, Cheng Liu directly shot three arrows, and the crooked-necked tree was directly shot through a big hole, but it didn't fall, but the hole was shocking.

"Good!"

Wen Liang was already dumbfounded, the person who shouted this was an old man who was in his prime, and his steps were faltering, even if he didn't need to be introduced by others, Cheng Liu already understood that this was Master Xu Zuo.

"The longbow has been in disrepair for a long time, and its accuracy is not the same as it was back then, and the arrows shot in this breath are all impartial, and the accuracy and arm strength are indispensable. The old man admires, if you don't dislike it, take us down the mountain together. ”
