I believe many people have heard of the story of the spear and the shield. There are people in Chu who wear shields and spears. They praise their shields and say: "My shield is so strong that nothing can sink it." They also praise their spears and say: "My spears.

The benefits are bound to everything."

Zhao Hao has also heard of this story. Now that he has even built the strongest defensive equipment and armor, he will naturally think of the strongest offensive weapons.

So, what is the most powerful offensive weapon in the cold weapon era?

There are no swords, guns, swords or halberds. When it comes to the most powerful offensive weapon in the cold weapon era, it has to be the crossbow!

In the pre-Qin Dynasty, there was the world-famous Gale Arrow Formation. When the six kingdoms saw this thing, they were all frightened by it.

The structure of the strong crossbow is too complex, and Zhao Hao cannot make it at the moment. However, the bow and arrow are very simple things, and it is quite easy to make them.

After he tried the effect of the armor, he began to make bows and arrows.

At the beginning, he made a small mold according to the process he had figured out. This mold was roughly a little thicker than his thumb, triangular in shape, pointed in the front, and with a deep round hole in the back.

This thing is somewhat similar to a gun head, but it is much smaller than a gun head. What can it be used for?

Zhao Hao followed his usual practice and did not give any explanation.

He just asked Ahua and the other five people to keep casting, and kept casting, until they had cast thousands of them, and then he asked them to stop and carefully hammer the front end into a sharp edge, and polish it until it was extremely smooth and sharp.

To this end, he even cast several round pig iron rods as thin as a finger and inserted them into the round holes at the back of the little thing to prevent the round holes from deforming during the making.

What this thing was used for, no one knew until the samples were built, but at this time, Zhao Hao left Ahua and others, directly found a pile of hard eucalyptus branches, and carefully selected them.

Then, he used the magic weapon to cut the selected long strips into thin pieces of the same size, soaked these long strips until soft, twisted them tightly together, and then tied them with a cowhide rope and tied them in a circle outside.

I fixed it on a wooden mold with a rounded shape and left it outside to dry for a few days.

No one knows what this nearly person-high thing is used for.

This morning, Zhemu was basically in shape, and Zhao Hao finally came to reveal the answer.

He directly twisted several long cowhide ropes into one, tied it to the Zhemu bow, and a long bow was completed.

This long bow must have at least five stones or more, which means that it requires a master with more than 800 kilograms of strength to pull it open. Moreover, the long bow also has a small diamond-shaped hole in the middle, and arrows can be passed through the middle.

There is a misunderstanding here. It seems that all the bows made by wilderness survival anchors in the wild or the bows that appear in most movies and TV shows do not have small holes in the middle. People place the arrow against one side of the bow body and then pull it.

Open the bow and shoot the arrow.

It's as if the small hole in the middle cannot be made at all.

Of course this is not the case. In ancient times, the bow body was made of hard eucalyptus or other hard wood strips twisted together. As long as a small wooden stick was inserted in the middle when the bow body was twisted, the small hole would be left, and

, it’s still there after it’s finalized.

There was no such thing as a bow and arrow at this time, so even if Zhao Hao made all the long bows, no one would understand what he was doing.

Zhao Hao did not explain. He took a few more polished arrowheads, whittled a few arrow shafts, and found a few pieces of wild pheasant feathers to make a few arrows slightly longer than his arms. Then he took Ah

Yun and A Yue, along with Cang Wu and others, came to an open space on the edge of the gathering place of the Black Stone Tribe.

Then, in front of everyone, he opened the bow and loaded the arrow, pulled the long bow to the full moon, and shot the long arrow out with a whoosh.

In the astonished eyes of everyone, the arrow hit a big tree a hundred steps away with a scream and a pop. From a distance, everyone could feel the terrifying penetration.

Power, because the thigh-thick tree trunk was penetrated by this arrow!

The five-stone bow is truly astonishingly powerful!

However, the quality of the arrows at this time was not so satisfactory.

Zhao Hao walked over with the stunned people, picked up the arrow that fell behind the big tree, looked at it, and shook his head with a wry smile.

This guy's arrows were all deformed by this arrow, and they couldn't be used again.

Everyone looked puzzled when they saw this, you are not satisfied with this terrifying power!

Such a thick tree trunk has been shot through. If you want to shoot at people, you can probably shoot through several people!

Cangwu couldn't help but trembled: "What's wrong, Chief Tian, ​​do you think this thing is not powerful enough?"

Zhao Hao still smiled bitterly and shook his head: "This thing is powerful enough, but the arrows are not strong enough. Alas, it will not work after one arrow. If we want to really fight Xue Man's tribe, we don't know how many arrows we need to make."

"

At first, he only pursued the power of the bow, but did not consider the strength of the arrow. It seems that this five-stone bow is not very suitable. At least, until there is no breakthrough in iron-making technology, the five-stone bow

Strong bows cannot be equipped on a large scale, otherwise Ahua and the other five would be too busy making arrows every day.

In fact, there are not many people who can draw the five-stone strong bow at the moment. There are only about a dozen or so of the Yan tribe, and even more pitifully few of the Black Stone tribe, including Cang Wu, Ah Xing, and Teng Lei.

The three of them were able to pull it apart, but the others, including Chong Fei, couldn't.

Next, Zhao Hao began to experiment again, but this time, he did not make the longbow in front of the Blackstone tribesmen. After all, this amazingly powerful thing was still safe in the hands of his own people.

He still called Ahua and the other five people together, explained in detail the process of making longbows, and then asked them each to choose five different thicknesses of eucalyptus wood strips and follow the method he taught to make five different thicknesses.

Here comes the long bow.

After the longbow was finished, Zhao Hao roughly tested the strength. The strongest one was about four stones, which means it took about 600 kilograms of strength to pull it open. The lightest one was even less than 600 kilograms.

It takes only one stone and about a hundred kilograms of strength to pull it apart.

Then, he asked five people to make dozens of arrows and led them to test the range and power of the five longbows.

The shooting range of these five longbows can reach more than a hundred steps, but the difference in power is huge. A four-stone strong bow can roughly penetrate a tree trunk as thick as a thigh, while a longbow of about a hundred kilograms can penetrate even a tree trunk as thick as an arm.

The tree trunks cannot be penetrated.

He roughly weighed it up, and finally decided to mass-produce a longbow of about two stones, because this kind of longbow only requires about three hundred kilograms of strength to draw, and basically anyone with a little strength can use it.

, Moreover, as long as the arrow it shoots does not directly hit a hard object such as a stone, the arrow will basically not deform.

The only drawback of this kind of long bow may be that it is not powerful enough. Basically, the arrows it shoots can just penetrate a tender tree trunk as thick as an arm. If you want to shoot a person, it is probably difficult to penetrate.

Of course, the power of an arrow can be considered quite good if it can penetrate a tender tree trunk as thick as an arm. After all, arrows generally rely on quantity to win. If shot alone, the power is not very great. If there are hundreds of them,
Chapter completed!
