After the belly problem was solved, Zhang Sheng focused on armaments. If he wanted to consolidate the fruits of his labor, his fists must be strong enough.
In Guangchang City, the sound of training is endless; more and more heads hang around the porridge shack, and the refugees outside the city are becoming more and more obedient; the population of Guangchang begins to increase at a steady rate, and everything finally stabilizes and is on the right track.
The crossbow arrows buzzed and hit the target after the triggering sound again and again.
One hundred and fifty steps later, only a white spot remained on the leather armor;
One hundred and twenty steps, a dent appeared in the leather armor;
Ninety steps later, a hole appeared in the leather armor, but it was only a small hole. The arrow lost its strength after passing through the leather armor, and could barely penetrate the linen clothes and pierce the fur.
Seventy steps later, the crossbow bolt penetrated the armor, pierced the linen clothing, penetrated the sheepskin, and penetrated more than an inch into the flesh. The ram tied to the wooden pole struggled incessantly, its eyes full of fear.
Seventy steps is the effective distance of the compound crossbow.
Compared with a bow and arrow that takes forty or fifty steps to cause the same damage, the composite bamboo crossbow increases the effective range of blocking the enemy by a full twenty or thirty steps.
"Marquis, the first batch of crossbows must be equipped for a full number of people. I guarantee that I will carry back the head of whichever tribal leader you like." Cheng Lian saw the power of the composite crossbow and his eyes widened like bells. , start grabbing immediately.
"Brother, I want it too. I can also bring the head back for you." When Yu Zhong heard that the treasure was about to be snatched away, he immediately became anxious.
"Commander, they are grabbing the rest, but they have to take care of us. You can't be partial." Yang Mazi and Zeng Niu looked at each other to make sure they didn't fall behind.
"Go, go, all of you, move aside. We archers should be equipped with strong bows and crossbows first." Li Ji, the person in charge of the archers, wanted to pull everyone aside directly.
There is no fool.
These people all know what this increased range of twenty or thirty steps means.
The extra twenty or thirty steps indicates that you can make the enemy lie down before his bow and arrow fall.
Facing the crowd's scramble, Zhang Sheng smiled and said nothing, took the crossbow from Zhou Chuang, had the leather armor removed from the ram, and stood still at a hundred paces with the crossbow in hand.
"Bata!"
There was a clear trigger sound, and the crossbow bolt buzzed out, "Bah... baa baa..." In the ram's pitiful cry, everyone saw that a trace of blood slowly appeared on the ram's belly as it struggled. red.
Except for the officers and soldiers, the armor rate of the rest of the enemies should not be high, right?
"Marquis..."
"Commander..."
"Brother..."
The thieves who suddenly reacted suddenly surrounded Zhang Sheng, wishing he could conjure up a bunch of composite crossbows right now.
"If you want a crossbow, you can do it. When will you bring out the team's appearance, and when will you equip the crossbow." Zhang Sheng looked at the group of thieves and responded with a smile.
Yu Zhongchenglian, Yang Mazi and others turned and left. They pinned their hopes of getting the compound crossbow first on the riding whip or stick in their hands. The training ground was filled with bursts of shouts and the howls of the soldiers... …
crossbow? Don't think about it for now.
When will the guards at the four levels be equipped with a hundred composite crossbows for each level, and when will it be their turn.
The safety of my home is the most important thing!
Looking at the soldiers training again on the training ground, Zhang Sheng had a smile on his face.
Withdrawing his gaze, Zhang Sheng focused on Xu Huang. It would be better to eliminate this unstable factor as soon as possible.
After a lot of stumbling and collision in recent months, Zhang Sheng was finally able to exchange a few words with Xu Huang. Only then did he realize that Xu Huang was only eighteen years old at this time, a few months shy of nineteen. The future Xu Meng was so tall He was a little anxious and looked to be in his early twenties.
At this time, Zhang Sheng looked at Xu Huang, who was staring at the ram on the wooden pole in surprise, and asked in a show-off manner: "Brother Xu, how are you? I still have some ability, right? Can these things cope with that Guo Qushuai?"
Xu Huang did not answer the question, but turned around and looked at the boy in front of him with complicated eyes.
These days I wandered around Guangchang City. The more I wandered around, the more frightened and hotter Xu Huang's heart became.
In this small Guangchang, everything is carried out in an orderly manner, which is not simple.
I don't understand much about other things and can't comment on them, but I still know a little about soldiers.
When the soldiers were training, they took a look and found that they were already far stronger than the scattered soldiers in Baibo Valley. If these soldiers faced the soldiers of Baibo Valley, Xu Huang believed that it would be easy for one group to defeat two groups, or even three groups of four. Tun is no problem either.
Elite soldiers, definitely elite soldiers.
Xu Huang thought to himself about the seriousness and ferocity with which the soldiers trained. He couldn't say that he could escape unscathed against such a group of soldiers.
That team was so neat that I was envious of it. I once thought privately about what it would be like to have such a group, an army, and a unit led by me. Xu Huang felt that with such a group of soldiers, he dared to lead them to challenge a thousand-man army in Baibo Valley.
Now, this guy has come up with this extremely lethal compound crossbow. It can kill the enemy through armor at seventy steps, and it can cause indiscriminate damage to unarmored soldiers from a hundred steps away. There is no way for those thieves in Baibo Valley to survive against them. ?
Then again, in Guangchang City, everything is so novel and full of vitality. In Guangchang County, the people are busy, the soldiers are working hard, everyone is doing their own thing, but they are hugging each other. It seems that this county is full of people. There is a kind of magic that attracts me inexplicably, giving me the urge to join in.
And all of this is the result of the boy in front of him.
This boy, who is younger than himself, is even more extraordinary. He controls a county town of Nuo Da, but he has no airs. He discusses everything with everyone, is kind to everyone, and is as close as a family. Everything makes people feel very comfortable. very natural.
Xu Huang thought to himself, compared to the intimidating feeling of Guo Qushuai and Yang Feng being superior, at this time, he actually liked this boy a little bit in his heart, and he liked Guangchang County even more.
Thinking about it at this time, this boy's ability is indeed extraordinary. It is really surprising that he can take a fancy to himself after just one glance.
From his behavior in the past few days, it can be seen that this boy really likes him. In Guangchang County, you are completely unprotected from yourself. You can go wherever you want at any time, including the workshop. Moreover, whenever there is a discussion, this kid will always ask someone to notify him to participate. It can be said that there is nothing big or small in Guangchang that he doesn't know about now.
Two hundred stones, when I wanted to fight this kid with all my strength, I only had this number in my mind. Is it cheap? Or should we not treat ourselves as commodities?
Thinking about it now, the two hundred stones was just a contest between him and Yang Feng. He just saw through Yang Feng and wanted to keep himself from Yang Feng's thieves at the minimum price.
Doesn't this just show that people's eyes are more than just a little bit higher than Yang Fenggao's? It's not that others simply look down on me, so why should I be angry?
At this moment, Xu Huang thought about many things clearly.
Baibogu, I definitely can't go back. Leave Guangchang? If you are a thief, where can you find such a comfortable place?
