Chapter 254 : The power is strong enough, and the mountain can fly!
Can you imagine? A 200-meter-long super giant bow shoots an 80-meter-long giant arrow.
I dare say that even the most imaginative film director would not dare to imagine such a crazy scene.
Really, it's so crazy. This amazing scene can only be described with the word "shocking".
The giant pulls the giant bow, and the giant bow shoots giant arrows!
At this moment, everyone was staring nervously at the live broadcast camera, for fear of missing the most exciting launch scene. After all, there is only one such alternative and exciting live video broadcast on the entire earth. This cannot help but make those who have never seen the world feel...
Excited and excited.
The bowstring is full of power waiting to be released!
When Lin Shuhang pulled the last wooden stake out of the ground, the thick bowstring suddenly rebounded, pushing the 80-meter-long giant redwood tree forward at great speed.
The air was torn apart by the giant arrow, making a loud "whooshing" sound, the force was amazing!
The 80-meter-long giant sequoia tree transformed into a rocket flying at high speed, pulling the long tree vines into the sky and flying towards the other side of the rift valley a few hundred meters away. The scene was extremely shocking!
Looking at the momentum, this giant arrow should easily reach the other side of the rift valley, but this is not the case.
As the distance continues to increase, the flying force of the giant arrow becomes weaker and weaker. This is mainly because the weight of the tree vines tied to the tail of the arrow reaches several tons. As the distance increases, the power of the giant arrow begins to be consumed significantly.
Strength.
After only flying forward for a distance of three to four hundred meters, the huge redwood tree fell feebly to the bottom of the valley with its long vines, like a rocket that failed to launch.
Billions of tons of hot magma accumulated at the bottom of the valley, bubbling out like a pot of boiling water.
Before they even came into contact with the fiery red magma, the giant trees dozens of meters tall were scorched by the high temperature, and a raging fire ignited in mid-air.
It's a pity that the first step of the "soft ladder" plan died in this way.
"What a pity!" There were sighs in Lin Shuhang's time broadcast room. Everyone was regretting this result. This was far from the result they expected.
Such an unexpected occurrence at this time is undoubtedly the most difficult thing for Lin Shuhang, the designer of Jugong, to accept.
Looking at the giant arrows and vines that were roasted by the magma into a blazing fire, Lin Shuhang frowned and muttered: "How could this happen? The strength of this bow seems to be very strong? Why did the arrow fall after it shot halfway?
?”
Some spectators outside the venue gave their own opinions: "Anchor, this bow is powerful enough, but don't forget that what you shot is not a modified giant arrow tied with tree vines. Each of those tree vines you twisted has
The weight is very heavy for a length of thousands of meters. If you don’t believe it, you can try changing to a thinner tree vine. Not to mention a distance of 800 meters, even a distance of 8,000 meters can be easily reached.”
This is not true at all. The power of the bow is indeed strong enough, but the heavy vines consume the strength of the bow and arrow. Just like what the spectator said, this test shooting, if it were replaced by thinner vines
, let alone 800 meters, it is not impossible to reach 8,000 meters.
"It can't be any thinner!" Lin Shuhang said: "It's not safe to be any thinner. The diameter of each of these tree vines is five centimeters. According to the proportion, it is only equivalent to one of my hairs, and is not even thicker than my hair. Not only is it insufficient in strength,
, even the length is not enough, and it can only be used by splicing them together."
"In a word, the bow is still not strong enough. If the bow were strong enough, even a big mountain would have to fly to the other side of the rift valley."
Lin Shuhang thought about it while looking at the live broadcast camera, and said: "It seems that I should modify the strength of this bow. Modify it to three times the strength. I don't believe it can't be shot!"
The giant arrow carried the tree vines and flew a distance of about 400 meters. After being tripled in intensity, its theoretical launch range exceeded 1,200 meters, which was enough to shoot the rope bridge to the opposite mountain.
Lin Shuhang gritted his teeth: "Today I must make sure that the rope bridge reaches the opposite side smoothly! Crazy General, go get some big trees, and we will immediately modify the hardness of this bow to give it some strength!"
"Roar!" The mad general responded and ran with Lin Shuhang into the woods a few kilometers away.
In this way, the heavy modification work began vigorously under the afterglow of the setting sun.
In order to enhance the power of the giant bow, Lin Shuhang and Mad General worked for most of the night, painstakingly acquiring hundreds of huge redwood trees from the woods.
These redwood trees are all century-old trees, each one is seventy or eighty meters in length, and their thickness is about five meters. They are materials used by Lin Shuhang and Mad General to strengthen the main structure of the giant bow.
As we all know, the redwood tree is a high-quality tree species with high hardness and strength.
This kind of tree grows rapidly, has a high survival rate, and has an extremely long lifespan. It is recognized as one of the most valuable tree species in the world.
With the structural support of a large number of redwood trees, the arms of the giant bow were more than three times thicker.
Of course, just increasing the thickness of the bow arm will not meet the modification requirements and standards.
In order to pursue stronger power and range, Lin Shuhang decided to modify this giant bow according to the specifications of the "Three-Bow Crossbow".
The three-bow crossbow is a frightening and powerful long-range weapon in ancient warfare.
This heavy weapon strikes with three bows linked together, and can fire two-meter-long giant "treading arrows."
The "stepping arrow" is as big as a javelin and is an alternative type of arrow. It uses hard wood as the shaft, a spear tip as the arrowhead, and an iron quill made of iron at the end.
The scene of the three-bow bed crossbow firing talons is spectacular. It can drive two-meter-long talons directly into the hard city wall like a nail gun.
When attacking a city, dozens or even hundreds of three-bow crossbows were fired together, and rows of "javelins" were nailed to the city wall like a torrential rain. The siege soldiers could use these "javelins" nailed to the city wall.
Giant arrows climbed up the city wall, and the attack was invincible.
Of course, it is very difficult to pull such a huge power. According to historical records, the three-bow bed crossbow in the Song Dynasty required the combined efforts of 30 soldiers to pull it.
This is just an ordinary version of the three-bow bed crossbow. Some specially improved heavy-duty bed crossbows, such as the famous "Eight Ox Crossbow", require more than 100 soldiers to pull it.
The three-bow bed crossbow has a range of 700 steps, and the eight-bow crossbow has a range of 1,000 steps.
The unit of measurement in the Song Dynasty was different from that in modern times. One step equals 1.536 meters. In other words, the improved version of the three-bow bed crossbow can reach an astonishing 1536 meters!
This distance has far exceeded the range of most modern light weapons, and it is definitely the king of the cold weapon era.
Thinking of this, Lin Shuhang decided to make a super giant three-bow crossbow.
As some viewers said, as long as the bow is strong enough, even a mountain can be sent to the other side!
Regardless of whether he has this ability or not, Lin Shuhang has this confidence anyway.
No matter how difficult it is, he must successfully cross this dangerous prehistoric rift valley.
At this moment, he is not only doing it for himself, but also for the countless spectators outside the field who are expecting him to create miracles.
