Chapter 88: Compound Crossbow
At the moment when he saw Huang Rong, Long Xiang seriously realized the slight aesthetic deviation between himself and the ontology - although generally every man likes beauty, the choice of the ontology is more diversified.
Whether it is the young and lively Gu Xiaoyue, or the gentle and mature Zeng Jing, or the handsome and delicate, Selina with the best appearance and figure.
And the dragon elephant's own aesthetic is more mature.
The kind of mature, charming, gorgeous, and delicate that a woman exudes between her posture and temperament after reaching a certain age! On the other hand, cute Lori like Gu Xiaoyue and Serena who don't look more than twenty years old...... The dragon elephant is not very interested.
I hadn't paid attention to the difference between myself and the ontology before, and the dragon elephant hadn't thought much about it.
And now that he has understood the difference between himself and the ontology, the dragon elephant has also begun to think about it in all aspects, and has become more precise in grasping the nature of his inner activities.
As a split body of Shao Cheng.
On the basis that Shao Ben is not a good person, Long Xiang's character is a little more domineering and fierce.
Although all this is overshadowed by the thoughtful and low-key personality of the day.
But in fact, at this moment, the dragon elephant's heart roared like a greedy hungry wolf: "This woman...... I'm going to make this woman! βγ
Evil thoughts are hard to suppress for a lifetime.
β¦β¦
A hint of repulsion flashed in Huang Rong's eyes.
In her opinion, Brother Jing's behavior of treating this suspicious person of unknown origin as a guest of honor after communicating with the giant man was very dangerous.
There was no evidence of this, but when she saw the giant man who called himself the dragon elephant, she felt the unsettling heat in the other person's gaze!
Although every time she looked at the other party, there was no expression on the other party's angular facial features, like those of the Western Regions, she could always feel that it seemed that the other party's gaze was constantly wandering on her body...... would even linger in those shameful places for a long time, making her feel very uncomfortable.
Some people who are even the slightest vigilant can feel the gaze of others watching them, let alone with her current martial arts cultivation...... Huang Rong can almost guarantee that the other party has definitely quietly observed herself many times!
Those who are not of my race will have different hearts!
This truth is not very clear to Guo Jing, who grew up in the desert steppe and has neighbors and friends who are Mongolians.
Even now that Mongolia is rising and the two sides are hostile, Guo Jing has never really had much hatred for the Mongols.
Otherwise, with Guo Jing's martial arts, nothing else...... Organize a few martial arts masters to lurk in the north and kill those herdsmen and soldiers at will, I'm afraid that they will be able to kill thousands of people in less than half a year!
And the other party may not even touch a single hair of him!
Of course, Guo Jing is not that kind of person, and he will not do anything to kill civilians at all.
The martial arts of most of the other martial arts masters in the Southern Song Dynasty were far from reaching Guo Jing's level, even if they secretly went to the north and wanted to attack the Mongols, an ordinary small group of Mongolian light cavalry could often hunt them down, and they could not come and go as freely as a master of Guo Jing's level in the army round-up.
In short, Huang Rong doesn't like this giant with an odd name.
The other party's height, body shape, and facial features that were obviously different from those of the Song people made her feel an obvious alien atmosphere. And in terms of the temperament of the other party...... Definitely a ruthless person with blood on his hands.
This kind of person appeared around her family and was treated as a guest by her husband, which made Huang Rong feel a little uneasy......
But things don't always go as planned.
Although Huang Rong didn't want Guo Jing to get too close to Long Xiang.
But how did she know the painstaking calculations of the dragon elephant who had already positioned her as prey in her heart?
In the tone of "the great man of chivalry, save the country and save the people", combined with the analysis of the situation in the Southern Song Dynasty by countless young generals on the Internet in later generations, he suddenly completely conquered this Guo Daxia.
Speak from the heart.
Long Xiang has a good impression of Guo Jing.
Although he himself is a person with a cold temperament and puts his own interests before everything, for Guo Jing, a hero who is loyal to the country and the people, even if he is a bad person...... As long as there is no hatred and no hatred, where would you not like such a good person?
But as the saying goes, "The husband is not guilty and bears his guilt".
Because of Huang Rong's relationship, the two are destined to become friends.
Of course.
Long Xiang didn't want to kill Guo Jing eitherβalthough he had a good chance of killing Guo Jing if he had a good chance of killing him, for this good man, Long Xiang still planned to accomplish his goal in another way.
β¦β¦
Xiangyang, Bu Military Academy.
"This is the new heavy crossbow you designed, Brother Dragon?" Surrounded by a group of officers, Guo Jing and everyone looked curiously at the strange crossbow machine in Long Xiang's hand.
"yes!" The dragon elephant nodded, and wound the simple compound crossbow that he asked the craftsman to make according to the drawings: "Everyone has been at war with the Mongols for many years, and they must know much more about the Mongols than I do...... Then, if you want to defeat the Mongols in battle, or at least maintain undefeated, you need to understand the advantages and disadvantages of the Mongols and our Great Song Dynasty! βγ
"The advantages of the Mongols? That's cavalry, of course! If my Great Song Dynasty also has hundreds of thousands of cavalry, where can I still be afraid of him, a small Mongolia?! An officer said angrily.
"That's right." The dragon elephant nodded.
"But...... This advantage of the Mongols is not easy to make up! Because how difficult it is to train a cavalryman, it takes a lot of food and grass, not to mention time...... On the issue of war horses, there is no large grassland suitable for raising war horses, and it is obviously impossible to organize a large-scale cavalry! βγ
"Two legs can't outrun four legs...... On the battlefield, the soldiers desperately chased the Mongols, and the end would only be to be easily killed by the other side after exhaustion! Or even shoot him with a bow and arrow from a distance! So...... To make up for this shortcoming, you need a bow and crossbow with more advanced performance! βγ
"Bows and arrows, as we all know, are long training, and it is not easy to become a soldier! Although Mongolia does not have many masters who can kill two birds with one stone like Guo Daxia...... But as a grassland people, their attainments in bows and arrows are indeed quite high! Coupled with the factor of war horses, this also caused the two armies to fight, and the Song army suffered heavy casualties before the opponent could fight! βγ
"Wait until we train successfully...... Apparently it's too late. Unless the official orders the whole people to practice shooting...... It will take three to five years to see results, otherwise there is absolutely no hope of catching up with Mongolia. βγ
"Well, this new crossbow machine in my hand is designed for this!"
Guo Jing looked at the strange image in the dragon elephant's hand, and the crossbow machine with a strange wooden support, crossbow arm and two iron wheels at the back of the crossbow machine couldn't help asking: "This crossbow machine is so weird, but what are the special benefits?" βγ
Long Xiang smiled: "Of course! I'll show you how to explain it! βγ
After taking the crossbow arrow and winding the arrow, the dragon elephant pulled the trigger on the target that had been prepared for a long time.
Bang!
There was a muffled sound from the grass target in the distance.
The bolt was nailed deep into the target.
