Chapter 370: Cross the Yang with a Hundred Steps
Master Cheng looked in amazement at the Mo Dao in Zhang Kuang's hand that had been added with later steel-making materials by Mr. Liu: "I didn't expect Mr. Liu to still have such a back-up plan. I can't help but accept it. A random craftsman can compete with Old Cheng just by adding a few things." The craftsmanship of several generations is comparable, and Mr. Liu is indeed the one behind the Yangtze River pushing the waves ahead."
Liu Mingzhi also took the Mo Dao in Zhang Feng's hand and looked at it. It was almost the same weight as the one given to Zhang Kuang. It was an absolute master's ability to grasp such precision: "Master Cheng, don't belittle yourself. You still have If you are not familiar with the knack of making steel from coal, otherwise your skills will definitely make a sharper weapon than the current Mo Dao. According to Liu, the current Mo Dao is only 70% of your level at best."
Master Cheng pursed his lips and nodded lightly: "Old Cheng admires Mr. Liu's neither arrogant nor impetuous temper. To be honest, this knife is at least 70% of Old Cheng's level."
Master Cheng's frank admission did not surprise Young Master Liu at all.
The wisdom of the ancients cannot be underestimated, especially the ancients who can be called master craftsmen.
"Okay, you two, stop flattering each other. You are both working for His Majesty, regardless of each other."
Zhang Kuang saw the black lines appearing on the foreheads of Young Master Liu and Master Cheng as they recalled their endless boasting, so he interrupted their conversation at the right time.
"Yes, General."
Looking at Master Cheng with arrogance and satisfaction: "Master Cheng, you are an old craftsman. Now Liu Xiaozi has figured out a method to quickly improve the smelting of iron ore. You must go all out to build the Mo Dao. The soldiers in Northern Xinjiang are still waiting. Following you."
"Follow the order, my subordinates will spare no effort and devote all of their energy to building the Mo Dao."
Arrogant nodded with satisfaction, and then it was time to see the power of plate armor and the power of arrows.
After the plate armor cooled from the stone mold, it turned into a smooth iron plate, faintly emitting a cold light, without any conspicuousness. At first glance, an uninformed person would think that it was just an iron plate that looked like clothing.
After the cooling, craftsmen had already put coarse leather on the inside of the plate armor according to Liu Mingzhi's instructions to prevent wear and tear on the soldiers' skin.
Young Master Liu, the armored warrior in the West, didn't know much about it, so he could only cross the river on a pony and feel his way forward.
There are no roads in the world. The more you walk, the more you walk. The more you walk, the looser and wider the road becomes.
Zhang Kuang drew out a soldier's sword and said to the craftsman holding the plate armor: "Put this plate... the plate armor on the wooden pier."
"yes."
The craftsman fixed the plate armor on the wooden pier, and Zhang Kuang raised the weapon in his hand and got into a stance. Everyone present was eagerly waiting for Zhang Kuang to make his move.
Especially Young Master Liu did not dare to move his eyes.
It was he who came up with the idea of plate armor, and no one wanted to know what his results would be like more than he did.
"drink."
Zhang Kuang slashed hard, and the plate armor bounced along with the wooden pier with a clang, which showed Zhang Kuang's great strength.
After the wooden pier was secure, Zhang Kuang raised the knife with his backhand and bent down to look at the plate armor. He saw a long knife mark on the plate armor, but the knife mark only left traces on the surface of the plate armor and did not cut through the plate armor. internal.
"Get the Mo Dao."
Zhang Feng raised his hand and said, "Master Hou, take the sword."
Mo Dao rolled in the air, and with a crazy leap, he grabbed the handle of Mo Dao, flew in the air, and slashed hard to the plate armor with Mo Dao.
The bodyguard's sword did only slight damage to the plate armor, but under Zhang Kuang's sword in hand, the armor and the wooden pier were shattered into two pieces.
Instead of rushing to see the plate armor, Zhang Kuang first used his hands to test the blade of Mo Dao.
Looking at the undamaged and extremely sharp Mo Dao, the corner of Zhang Kuang's mouth raised slightly, and a trace of bloodthirsty light showed in his eyes. Apparently, he had already thought of the scene where Mo Dao would shine brightly on the battlefield in the future.
"The general is mighty."
"The general is mighty."
Seeing how powerful Zhang Kuang was, a group of people praised him sincerely.
Zhang Kuang stopped the praising voice: "Phoenix feather arrows, wooden feather arrows."
Immediately, someone came over with a bundle of arrows and placed them on a wooden stand nearby.
"Replace them with watering arrows?"
"Replying to the General, fifty phoenix feather arrows and wood feather arrows have all been replaced with watered arrowheads."
Zhang Kuang took out a phoenix feather arrow and played with it in his hand. He looked at the bright arrow and fiddled with it with his hand. It was extremely sharp and said: "Get the bow."
"Master Hou, how many stone bows are there?"
"Five-stone bow."
Young Master Liu opened his mouth slightly. Although the power of a five-stone bow with one stone and a hundred kilograms is not five hundred kilograms in the sense, it cannot be underestimated.
After a moment, the personal guard brought a crossbow that was one size larger than the ordinary iron-tied bow to Zhang Kuang: "Master Marquis, the bow is here, how many steps is the target?"
Zhang Kuang looked at the iron-tied bow and phoenix feather arrows in his hands and muttered: "One hundred steps, one hundred and fifty steps, two hundred steps, and three hundred steps, each with ten targets."
"It's an order."
The people on the side seemed to be used to this kind of thing and were not surprised at all. This was the first time Liu Mingzhi saw someone shooting an arrow.
Of course Mr. Liu had seen archery on TV. What surprised Mr. Liu was the distance at which the target was placed wildly. One hundred and fifty steps was barely understandable, but three hundred steps was a bit outrageous.
Three hundred steps is equivalent to a distance of more than 400 meters. Even the effective killing range of later generations of assault rifles is probably no more than this.
Let’s not talk about whether the target we see is very clear. Even if we can see it clearly, can the arrow have such a long range? This is not a sniper rifle.
Zhang Kuang immediately had an explanation for Young Master Liu's doubts. The command from the soldier setting up the arrow target had just come. Zhang Kuang quickly grabbed three arrows and placed them on the bow string. Zhang Kuang actually wanted to bow with three arrows.
A set of smooth movements was completed effortlessly. The iron bow was stretched wildly into the shape of a full moon. Three piercing sounds were heard. Three phoenix feather arrows immediately separated from the bow string and shot away at a speed that was as fast as lightning.
In the blink of an eye, Young Master Liu saw that all three phoenix feather arrows had safely hit the target.
Without hesitation, Zhang Kuang grabbed three arrows again, bent his bow and pointed at a farther target.
In a moment, all the arrows shot by Zhang Kuang were inserted into the target. Without exception, they were all shot with one bow and three arrows.
Young Master Liu was stunned as he watched on the sidelines. He never imagined that a three-arrow bow and three arrows from a distance of 200 steps could hit the target perfectly.
Hitting the target is easy to understand, as long as the force is strong, what makes Liu Dashao feel most incredible is that it is obviously an iron-tired bow, and how the three arrows shot from one bow string can hit three respectively. On the target, the stress points where the arrows escape are all the same. Why can they fly to their respective targets so accurately?
I can only silently sigh at the awesomeness of the ancients. Sometimes it is like this. Unless you see it with your own eyes, you cannot believe that human power can do this.
This just proves the saying that just because you haven’t seen something doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
At the moment, there is only the last three-hundred-step archery target that has not yet been attempted.
Zhang Kuang took a deep breath. This time, instead of bowing with three arrows, he only took out one arrow and placed it on the bowstring. He calmly and breathlessly looked at the target 300 steps away.
"Whoosh..."
Young Master Liu didn't even notice how the arrow flew away. He saw Zhang Kuang holding the iron bow and starting to walk towards the target. A large group of people also gathered behind him.
Young Master Liu also hurriedly followed. He could no longer see whether there were any arrows on the archery target three hundred steps away, so he had to walk in.
Zhang Kuang and his group skipped the nearest arrows and rushed forward.
Young Master Liu stopped at the arrow target a hundred steps away and observed: "Haha...it looks pretty good, but I didn't hit it at all."
Young Master Liu laughed softly when he saw that there was nothing on the target.
