Chapter 823. A strong array of crossbow arrows
The Mojia Organ City is hidden in the mountains.
It is built on the mountain, and the terrain is peculiar.
Hundreds of miles are steep cliffs and deep valleys that are almost impossible to climb.
Bai Feng is an exception to this kind of flying......
Below the Mojia Organ City, there is a turbulent river surrounding, and the water is full of reefs, and ships often run into the reefs when sailing, and end up with a ship wrecked and killed.
Similar to the moat of many castles.
However, it is more effective than those moats.
Very good to make it difficult for the attacker to move troops.
What's even more peculiar is that because it is built on the mountain, under the influence of the topography, there is also an unpredictable sea of clouds to cover, and the climate is sunny and rainy, making it difficult to find the right route in the sudden sea of clouds.
Well, like the wrong route, the Mo family keeps it for those outsiders.
It doesn't matter if you go wrong.
The next life to pay attention to is.
Under the strong crossbow shooting, you have to avoid three times by nature.
Combined with various mechanisms to eat, it will definitely make every villain who goes the wrong way unable to eat and walk around, and he will not want to revisit the old place in the next life.
In the interior of the city, water is the driving force.
This is probably the earliest hydraulically driven city defense device.
However, there is such a thing as a mechanism, and everyone who understands it understands.
There is nothing wrong with the complexity of the design of small organs, but if even the design of large organs is quite complicated, then this is to find trouble for yourself, because complex things will be more difficult to repair, but you don't need to repair it, and you don't know when because of the aging of a small part, let a certain organ be scrapped as a whole, so as to increase the total amount of daily inspection work.
Therefore, it is not easy for the city defense organs to make it too complicated.
There are only two main points of performance.
The first point is that the leather is solid, resistant to manufacturing, and low wear.
The second point is concise, efficient, and quick to use.
If the hydro-powered drive is a genius idea, then the complex mechanism in the Mojia Organ City behind it is a masterpiece of stupidity.
"Water is impermanent, and soldiers are impermanent."
"Water, to be rigid and soft."
"There is no dispute, therefore, the world cannot compete with it."
"Into the basin is the basin, into the bottle is the bottle."
"Anger becomes the river and the sea, and the peace is the silver mirror."
"The main thing is a good handling, and when necessary, the water can be stirred, and the inertia provides the unparalleled power of the gears, and the power is great."
Sits on the back of the trap beast Suzaku.
Lin Chaoci raised his head and looked at the arrows above his head that shimmered like stars.
Ignoring Jing Tianming, who was shouting.
also ignored the dumbfounded Shaoyu.
Retracting his gaze, in the dim cave, and under the illumination of countless "stars" overhead, he said with a smile: "The daily maintenance of these strong crossbows, the manpower, material resources, and cost required should not be a small number, right?" ”
The law of conservation of dynamics in this world still exists.
Therefore, the lion's share of the cost of any bow and crossbow is on the bowstring of the crossbow.
No bowstring can withstand a full twenty-four hours a day.
The end of a long time with a full string is not only a small problem such as the disintegration of the bowstring, the activation of the crossbow arrow, and the stall of the crossbow arrow, but the most terrible end is the fracture of the bow arm, a bow arm breakage, which means that a bow and crossbow are scrapped, and the parts scattered out at the moment of fracture will be affected by the strength of the full string, causing extremely strong destructive power to the surroundings.
Too close, no less than a frag grenade.
And under such a huge crossbow array, as long as one bow and crossbow has a problem, soon, other bows and crossbows will also be affected by the problem.
Some people may say that the Mo family can not wind the bow and crossbow, and when it is confirmed that the comer is the enemy, it is not too late to wind the bow and crossbow?
Listen to it.
Those who played with crossbow arrows and those who did not play with crossbow arrows were silent.
Crossbows and bows are different.
The crossbow is wound first.
The bow is the first to take the arrow.
In other words, the normal operation process of any crossbow arrow is to first pull the bowstring apart, snap into the reserved slot, then install the bow and arrow in the slot, and finally aim, pull the trigger, and shoot the arrow.
The bow is the first to take the arrow and take the arrow in the hand.
Then, pinch the arrow and pull the bowstring at the same time.
With one hand behind him, he pinched the tail or feather of the arrow.
One hand in front of it, as a bracket for the shaft of the arrow.
It can also be used as a rough aiming positioning.
Finally, let go and shoot the arrow.
Therefore, the cost of maintaining a crossbow is higher than maintaining a bow of the same value, the biggest advantage of a crossbow is that it is quick to get started, a standard archer has to train for a month at the fastest to qualify, but a crossbowman, only one or two days, can be fast, especially in the Song Dynasty also made a crossbow with eight bulls, directly pushing the power of crossbow arrows to the peak.
Because of this, after seeing this "star-studded" scene, the first thought in Lin Chaoci's mind was the terrifying maintenance cost, followed by the lethality, and finally whether the existence of these crossbow arrows violated Mozi's concept of "love and non-attack", and a series of nonsense.
Hearing Lin Chaoci's question, Master Ban glanced at this strange boy in surprise.
However, when I thought of Duanmu Rong's introduction just now.
This strange boy was sent by Prince Han Fei.
I'm sure I've seen a similar bow and crossbow.
Especially among the six countries, only Qin crossbow and Han crossbow competed.
In its heyday, South Korea created a strong bow and crossbow with a range of up to 600 meters away, regardless of whether it was a backshot or not, it was true that it could maintain lethality at a distance of 600 meters.
Qin crossbows have to be avoided.
Don't dare to shoot at Han crossbow.
Lin Chaoci is familiar with bows and crossbows, which is not surprising.
There is no doubt that there is him, and he boasted proudly: "Our Mo family has transformed these crossbow arrows, from the bow and crossbow straight hair, turned into a hole to excite, with gas as the power, now hanging on the top of the cave, from top to bottom homeopathy, no less than a strong crossbow messy hair, because of this, only need to polish the arrows from time to time, the repair cost is indeed not small, but it is not big." ”
To put it bluntly, we've transformed these bows and crossbows into holes similar to those found in tomb robbers, powered by water vapor and shot from top to bottom, with the help of gravity, these arrows can be made more powerful than arrows shot with traditional bowstrings.
Lin Chaoci nodded thoughtfully.
The Mo family can be regarded as relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and relying on the water to eat the water.
Even water vapor has been studied.
The principle is estimated to be similar to "blowing arrows".
But you're so hydraulically powered that what if someone poisons the water?
Counting on Xuanwu to change the water again?
Isn't that still a disadvantage!
Find another way into the city, turn off the water, don't care how many lines of defense you have, as long as it is water-driven, all of them will be invalidated, and there are still three caves in the cunning rabbit, so your Mo family will not prepare a second plan?
But...... It's all about the!
He was just a tourist, and he came to visit.
It can also be called a traveler.
These bows and crossbows are integrated with the mountains and stones, and the excitation device behind these bows and crossbows cannot be seen at all, Gai Nie is here, and he is not good at opening a god's perspective, like this kind of trivial matter, there is no need to ask the brush, because of this, there is this question, which can be regarded as a divergence of the topic.
Otherwise, only Jing Tianming shouted along the way, and the atmosphere was too heavy, especially the thief, you said that you were a joke, and you just played with Gai Nie and stared at each other, are you going to stare Gai Nie to death?
When rivals in love meet, they are very red-eyed.
him!
That's how interesting it is!
is so wretched, even the injured Gai Nie didn't dare to provoke a few words, thief, thief, can you still give me, a traveler, a good sightseeing experience?
