Chapter 231: Falling Star Crossbow
Even the clouds are mountainous, and the sky is connected to the clouds. The peak is covered with snow all year round, holy and majestic, located in the grassland, and is the holy mountain of the Yi people in the world of flowers and trees.
The Yi people are divided into many races according to their source language and appearance, but all of them regard Lianyun Mountain as a sacred mountain. Only the most powerful tribes can occupy the holy city built on the mountain at the foot of the holy mountain and become the co-lord of the Yi tribe. Because of the growth of the Kai and Totem tribes, the Yi tribe formed their own country, and the capital city is this holy city.
Although the Yi people's construction technology is not very good because of the characteristics of the nomadic people, in order to build a majestic enough holy city, a large number of craftsmen were captured from the Central Plains and the west, so the construction of this holy city is magnificent and magnificent, and it is also one of the most famous cities in the entire continent.
The Yi people are fun-loving, and whenever there is a festival or other reason to celebrate, they always celebrate it. This time is the Yi tribe's Winter Festival, which is transliterated as the holy city of Teris that lasts for ten days.
But on this night, the city of Teris did not have the joy and laughter of the previous days. During the day, the enemy appeared out of nowhere, and with great strength, quickly captured the proud capital of the Yi people. Hundreds of thousands of Yi people and tribal leaders were either killed or captured, and a large number fled the holy city.
In the majestic palace halfway up the mountainside, Emperor Zhang stood on the terrace, looking out everywhere.
The two bright moons shed a cold glow, casting a light veil over all things. The planet has two moons, and the moonlight may vary slightly due to the different composition of the moons. This is a subject of great interest to astronomical and aviation experts at the Tendo Academy.
"The world of carving, painting and weaving is unique." Cai Yan looked around in the gorgeous hall and praised casually.
"Well, it's very exotic. It seems that the world has a high gold production, and gold is decorated everywhere, and some of them look gaudy. Diao Chan said.
The group of women visited the exotic palace with great interest, because of the different customs. Many of the utensils were unheard of, which made them quite curious.
"This is the god worshipped by the Yi people? Three eyes, eyes are still so big. Wan Wan looked at the gold inlay pattern on the mural and said with some disgust.
"There is also a creation myth in this world, and there are some similarities to our world in that the creation god created the world and then incarnated into all things. A god worshipped by the Yi people. It is regarded as the embodiment of the eyes of the creator god. And the Yi people consider themselves to be descendants of this god, so they have extraordinary eyesight. ”
Leaning on the railing made of unknown wood, Zhang Hao turned around and explained.
In order to conquer this world, he deliberately studied the myths of this world, and the purpose was naturally to integrate the myths of this world into the immortal god system of Daqian. So that all races in this world will be willing to accept the rule of the Great Qian. Sufficient results have been achieved in this regard.
"The myth of the Yi tribe is so plausible, their eyesight is indeed strong. Especially those who have dynamic vision, it can be a bit tricky. Whether it's a long-range bow and arrow, or in close combat, it can play a huge role. Fortunately, I was prepared in advance. Otherwise, the damage will be great. ”
Shi Fei Xuan thought about the battle during the day and said seriously.
"If it weren't for the failure of gunpowder weapons, it wouldn't have been so troublesome. And this time there was no chemical weapons used, that's why it was so. And even if these races have talent, they still can't compare with our strong people. Wan Wan habitually talked back to the concubine.
"No matter what, the races of this world are really not to be underestimated. They are better suited to combat than humans. However, the potential for human development is stronger. Song Yuzhi commented.
Listen to the women talking. Zhang Hao was thoughtful. The conversation with Shi Zhixuan broke the pride in his heart that should not exist, but Zhang Hao did not follow the plan submitted by the General Staff. It's not that you can't put it on the shelf. It's that the world of flowers and trees is not worth his bothering so much.
Through the space-time gate, he traveled to and from several important cities in the Flower Tree World, and with his illusion magic and soul transfer skills, Zhang Hao got enough detailed information. In fact, the Privy Council and the General Staff didn't know that this method was better, but they couldn't ask Zhang Hao to act.
Being a subordinate does not solve the problem. I also have to bother the emperor to take action personally, which is a slap in the face for his subordinates. Zhang Hao knew their concerns, but he didn't care much about it. Just because he likes to put on a shelf and put on an X, doesn't mean he has to put it up.
In this way, the strongest strength of the Flower Tree World was once again determined, and Daqian's conquest of the Flower Tree World officially began. The first target was chosen by the Yi people. Daqian needed a strong wildebeest from the grassland to replace Daqian's war horses.
To capture the Holy City is to smash the Yellow Dragon. Strive to conquer the Yi in the shortest possible time. Despite the preparations, the power of the Yi Clan in the Holy City is still amazing. Cold weapons alone have brought a lot of casualties to Daqian, and it can only be said that several races in the Flower Tree World can really be called combat races.
But that's about it. The strong men of Daqian are stronger and more powerful, and have transcendent military technology, even if the Yi people resist desperately, their fate is already sealed.
At this time, the door of the main hall opened, and a group of sergeants walked in carrying a huge crossbow of a length of a zhang, followed by Yao, the wife of the department. After the sergeant put down the giant crossbow, he saluted and retreated towards Zhang Hao. Wan Wan and the others saw the giant crossbow engraved with exquisite patterns and gathered around to watch.
"This is the giant crossbow that shot down a Exocet ship and two helicopters during the day?" Wan Wan stroked the giant crossbow and asked in disbelief, "It doesn't seem to be anything special." Looking at the structure, it is not as delicate as the crossbow machine used by Daqian before. ”
Not only Wan Wan, but Shi Fei Xuan, Song Yuzhi and others all have the same expression. Cai Yan and the others were a little dazed, they did not participate in the war during the day, but they only heard Wan Wan's explanation, and surprise and shock suddenly appeared on their faces.
The helicopter is just that, it doesn't fly high, and the protection is average. But the Exocet ship is different, it flies high, and the shell is tough enough to withstand rocket attacks. It's unbelievable that this giant crossbow can pierce a Flying Fish ship.
"That's it. This kind of giant crossbow is called the Falling Star Crossbow by the Yi people, and it is the treasure of the Yi people. The department's wife replied affirmatively, standing on the edge of the giant crossbow, Yao stroked the exquisite patterns on it, and explained: "I carefully inquired about the captives and learned about some of the Falling Star Crossbows. These patterns are the mysteries. ”
Yao said, looked at Zhang Hao on the terrace, and said very seriously: "Your Majesty, I suggest that Daqian must pay attention to the totem clan. Although this race is not as powerful as the Kai, I think they have the strongest development potential and will help us the most.
The pattern on this falling star crossbow is made in imitation of the totem of the totem clan, which is somewhat similar to the formation pattern of the legendary Xiuzhen formation and the rune of our Taoist channeling technique. This is a godsend for applying special abilities. The pattern on the crossbow increases the speed and power of the bolt, and the pattern on the bolt has a tenacity and piercing effect. The combination of the two creates an effect that pierces Exocet's armor.
Although the totem of the totem clan does not yet have the ability to use external energy, it is only now that it has a good ability. There are a small number of totems in this city, and I plan to take them to the Kaiyuan World later to see if this totem works in other worlds. If it works, it will be of great help to our development and research. ”
"Is that so?" Zhang Hao listened to Yao's explanation, and his expression became serious. Walk into the main hall and look at the giant crossbow.
"In that case, send people to the west and try to capture some of the totemic elites. When the Yi tribe is subdued, the next target is the totem tribe. ”
"This totem clan is so powerful?! Does the Kai clan, who can suppress the totem clan, also have stronger abilities? Dugu Feng said.
"I can't be sure. And what I like is the help of the totem of the totem tribe to us, as well as the potential for development. It's not that in battle, the totem clan can be stronger than the Kai clan. The kind of innate battle armor of the Kai clan is perfect for combat. Yao explained.
"I learned about the Falling Star Crossbow from the captives. The totem people have long been researching the technology of applying their recorded totems to objects. However, there are very few materials that can withstand totems and exert effects. Moreover, the totem is extremely detailed, and there are very few people who can accurately depict the totem.
Due to these limitations, the research progress of totem tribes is very slow. But for us, it's a lot simpler.
For the totem clan, in addition to plundering some elites, the more important thing is to collect the totem catalogue of the totem clan, so many years, although many totem people will repeat, but the huge number, so that the number of totems is not less. Some of them are extremely powerful.
According to the captives, the Falling Star Crossbow previously possessed more powerful arrows, capable of exploding, and some possessing concussion abilities. But the previous use has been exhausted. Both the Falling Star Crossbow and the Arrow Stick were built with the help of members of the Totem Clan, and they could not replenish them themselves.
More than 100 years ago, there was a war among the totem tribes, and one of the big families wanted to fight for the dragon, but after failure, they had no choice but to come to the grassland and accept the protection of the Yi tribe. They crafted the Falling Star Crossbow in exchange. But the family's life in the Yi tribe was not satisfactory, and more than a decade later, the family returned to the West.
During this period, despite the obstruction of the Yi people, most of the family still returned to the West because of their thorough preparations. Except for the few who were killed by the Yi tribe, the remaining members did not know the relevant technology. Although it can still be maintained, it is unable to make new arrows. ”
"It seems that the combat power of the Western Totem Clan needs to be re-evaluated. A single family can build a weapon like the Falling Star Crossbow, and there is no shortage of similar weapons among the totem clan. Zhang Hao said seriously.
But his expression was more interested, not dignified. Weapons like the Falling Star Crossbow are indeed very strong, but they cannot play a decisive role in the military technology possessed by the Great Cadres. Emperor Zhang was more concerned about the effect of the totem in Yao's words. (To be continued......)
