Chapter 135: The Great Yellow Crossbow and the Divine Arm Bow

The original Xiangjun arsenal in Taoshan County was guarded by these five old Xiangjun soldiers, and a bunch of old guys were all grumpy and looked down on these useless native soldiers in Taoshan County...... Ding Gu was playful, and he was afraid that the county lieutenant would be angry and investigate after he found out, and secondly, these township soldiers were as frightened as a plague chicken when they saw a few murderous veteran ruffians with scars.

These things are also a waste if they are moldy, Song Wen simply cheekily picked out five hundred spears, these things are all well-made weapons in Zhezong's time, and they are really much better than the garbage made by Gao Yu and the current soldiers who are forgetful.

The Great Song Hand Knife, a broad-bladed weapon that looks short and thick, is really not looked down upon by Song Wen, and there is no such thing as it...... Because of the need to control costs, the hand knife of the Great Song Dynasty and the well-made Tang Heng knife completely went to two extremes!

One is to be sharp and tenacious, and also have the ability to pierce armor. One is for the sake of a large number of equipment, and the steel clamping method is used, which is short and stupid, but more durable and cheaper.

Song Wen simply doesn't like it!

The most expensive and strictly controlled iron armor and chain mail have long been transferred to the forbidden army arsenal in the state capital, Song Wen said for a long time before Lao Huang led him to a tightly closed warehouse, and after opening it, some leather harness inside was revealed, almost all of which were old and damaged. Behind the harness were dozens of neat pieces of leather armor.

Song Wen was surprised, does Da Song have leather armor? I remember that the history books recorded that the iron armor of the Great Song Dynasty and the step armor were famous, when did this kind of leather armor exist?

Lao Huang sighed: "I didn't lie to you, there are only these leather armors left in this broken arsenal, and there is no other armor." Anyway, it's going to be eaten by insects, so if you like it, take it all......"

Song Wen thanked him and promised to send ten more jars of spirits in a few days...... Lao Huang scolded with a smile: "If it weren't for the fact that you really dared to fight with the bandits, we wouldn't have given you a set of 100 jars of good wine...... These are all old objects that have followed the Great Song cavalry on the battlefield, and we don't dare to insult them. ”

Song Wen was very happy here, but An Chun, who was jumping with Lao Xu outside, suddenly ran back and panted at the door and said to Song Wen: "Brother, there is a crossbow!" Good bow and crossbow! ”

Song Wen's eyes lit up!

The Divine Arm Bow is also known as the Divine Arm Crossbow, its bow body is three feet two long, the string length is two feet five, and the supporting arrow feathers are several inches. It can shoot half of the elm without falling and the range is more than 340 steps, which is about 150 meters in later generations! It can be called a big killer in the Great Song Dynasty.

The old yellow head stood at the door with a serious face, and glared coldly at the embarrassed old man Xu: "Who told you to open the Tianzi library?"

Lao Xu sneered: "I haven't seen the doll before, isn't this trying to make him open his eyes......"

"Nonsense! This is the armament of the forbidden army's arsenal, and even the use of the box army has to be approved by the commander, what's the use of you letting the township soldiers see it? If they dare to use it privately, it will be a sin of rebellion......"

Song Wen sighed...... This Lao Huang's words are obviously for himself, and he has done some homework before, and the weapons that the township soldiers can be equipped with are basically spears, broadswords, and shields, and some bows and arrows are good. You don't have to think about what kind of armor, crossbow and war horse...... However, the official positions of the Great Song Dynasty were chaotic, not subordinate to each other, and clamped each other, which made many local government decrees chaotic, but there was only one point that officials at all levels were all watchful of.

That is the organization of the army, no matter what the official, as long as he finds the slightest sign of any army out of control, he will immediately play impeachment and then deal with it by thunderous means......

In the end of the Great Song Dynasty, the peasant uprisings were not few, but the only one that caused the regime to be shaken on a large scale was the Jiangnan La Uprising...... As for the heroes of Liangshan, who would squat in a puddle and rebel? Do you trap yourself to death? Song Jiangwu Yong, Lu Zhishen, Li Kui, Lin Chong, these people are all real...... But in the end, the rebellion was only called the 36 thieves of Jingdong, and they were not even given the name of rebellion!

It is also true that the battle to attack the city in several places is also true, and the result is in the most critical transition period...... They met the nemesis of hits, Uncle Zhang, the governor of Haizhou!

In the first battle, Song Jiang and his men were so embarrassed that they lost their armor and abandoned their armor, and they could only surrender obediently.

Compared with the Jiangnan Rebellion, which directly shook the grain and grass wealth of the Great Song Dynasty, Jiangnan, and the Western Xia, a party that continued to harass the northwest...... There was also the Liao State that suppressed the Great Song Dynasty for more than 100 years, and finally destroyed the Jurchen Jin people of the Northern Song Dynasty twice when they went south...... Song Jiang's Jingdong Thirty-six Thieves are as inconspicuous as a wave in the sea!

Song Wen was basically not interested in the so-called Liangshan heroes...... In addition to Lin Chong and An Daoquan, who have known each other for a long time, the rest of Song Wen also has some feelings about Yang Zhi, who was born in the four major generals, as well as the flower monk Lu Zhishen and Wu Song! The rest are either ghostly or pickled...... If anyone can really gather these scoundrels together and succeed in rebellion, it will really be an evil god!

Song Jiang in the romance was bent on recruiting peace, and later generations scolded him for it...... But once you really sit in Song Jiang's position, look down...... The most literate is a bad showman Wu Yong, except for engaging in some intrigues and tricks that are not on the table, there is no ability at all! The rest, scoundrels, ruffians, beggars, monks, and Taoists...... There are also those who run the rivers and lakes to perform and practice long-distance running, stealing chickens and touching dogs...... The crooked melon and cracked jujube are strangely shaped!

Take these man-made counter-overthrows to the Great Song Dynasty as the emperor? He didn't dare to think about farting Song Jiang's head clamp with a big iron door?

How can it be successful? With that large number of former generals who were framed, calculated, and squeezed out by the imperial court, it is impossible for them to fight with the imperial court sincerely! Three dozen Zhujiazhuang, Zengtou City, then Fangla, and then go north to fight with the Liao...... Anyway, these people just don't want to really tear their faces with the imperial court and kill you to the death!

So...... Song Wen didn't even think about getting involved with Song Jiang Fangla's people in the past, that is, looking for death!

As long as the most elite Western army of the Great Song Dynasty is still there, any rebellion will only end up with the death of the whole family......

Song Wen really wanted to do something, but he really didn't think about how far he could go!

originally wanted to be the biggest invisible rich man in the Great Song Dynasty, no matter what six thieves he was, whether he was a loyal minister or a good general, does Lao Tzu still care about giving you some benefits? Song Wen even thought about supporting a family to turn the tide in the shame of Jingkang and make a great contribution, and then use this to help the Great Song Dynasty change his title and enjoy peace......

But this time the attitude of the six thieves towards himself made Song Wen completely chilled...... The so-called rich everyone makes money, everyone makes money, and everyone earns is a big joke for these high-ranking magnates!

Lao Tzu's money is Lao Tzu's, and your money is also Lao Tzu'...... The emperor's money belongs to Lao Tzu, and the lives of the untouchables belong to Lao Tzu...... As for whether the Great Song Dynasty dies or not, what does Lao Tzu matter?

Is there any room for such a group of people to control the government? Do you still have the sense of security and prosperity you want? Bullshit...... Even if you really want these things, you have to be like the generals in the northwest, holding the most elite and powerful force in your hands! In this way, we can encompass a real wealth and security in this corrupt and dark age......

Song Wen looked at Lao Huang and said, "I have heard that our Great Song Dynasty is sharp, and I don't dare to ask for it for myself...... Just take a look, how? ”

Lao Huang sighed and shook his head: "Look, as long as you don't take out the arsenal......"

A row of ten bed crossbows that resembled looms were neatly arranged, and next to them were crossbow arrows as thick as chicken eggs, which were sharp weapons for defending the city! Song Wen looked around, patting the still sturdy crossbow frame and crossbow machine base.

"Senior Huang keeps this treasure so well, there is not even a trace of worm-eaten ......"

Lao Huang sighed: "Where is it!" This wood was boiled with medicinal water and soaked in medicinal oil, and it has been kept for decades...... However, the wood is already loose, and if you really use it, I'm afraid that it won't be able to shoot dozens of times before it will crack and be scrapped. ”

An Chun excitedly held a sturdy and heavy crossbow and said to Song Wen: "Brother, is this the divine arm bow you mentioned?"
