"Arrow arrowheads are made of metal, and there are ready-made molds that can be easily mass-produced, so the arrow shafts are particularly precious."
"As for recovering arrowheads, many are broken inside the enemy's body and need to be cut open to take them out. This is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Even if there are feathered arrows stuck in the body, in case there is no feathered arrow on the body, you have to find it. Arrowheads are more troublesome."
Yang Gan suddenly realized that it was not always necessary to linger for a long time on the battlefield. During the battle, the mental energy was 100% concentrated. Once relaxed, many soldiers would become exhausted. It was indeed a difficult task.
"Come on, let's try two arrows?"
"OK!"
The two came to the shooting range with bows and arrows. According to Yang Gan's request, the apprentices began to place the targets at fifty meters, one hundred meters, one hundred fifty meters, and two hundred meters.
The target is also covered with three layers of iron armor. This kind of armor is now the mainstream equipment of the elites of the Central Plains vassal states.
Yang Gan was not good at archery, so he found a man who was good at archery from the blacksmith and pulled the pulley bow, only to hear.
There was a "whoosh" sound.
The feather arrow has hit the fifty-meter target.
"Swish swish~~~~!"
The blacksmith didn't stop for a moment, just looking at the 200-meter target. Yang Gan couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He was helpless. It's not that simple to pierce Yang with a hundred steps. Unless Cao Wushuang takes action, most people can't shoot at 200 meters and can hit 150 meters. Mi, it’s already amazing.
"Report the count." Ou Yexia ordered.
The craftsmen ran over to check it out.
"A fifty-meter target can penetrate three layers of armor."
"A hundred-meter target can penetrate two layers of armor."
"A target of 150 meters will not break the armor."
"The two-hundred-meter target missed the mark."
Except for those that missed the target, Yang Qian nodded with satisfaction. This was a flat shot. It would be incredible to have such a good result in a flat shot, if it was a projectile shot.
The strength of the bow and arrow combined with the force of the fall, the power, and the distance are absolutely outstanding, and some armies may not wear three layers of armor.
One stone has a pulling force of 120 kilograms. In Yang Qian's vision, if a force ratio of 20% can be achieved, then with a pulling force of 60 kilograms, the force of the shot can be 240 kilograms, which is two stones.
Almost any archer can achieve a pulling force of 60 kilograms, which not only saves a lot of energy, but also gives Yang Qian a chance to create the arrow formation that he has always wanted to do.
From now on, no matter who it is, let's shoot arrows first when we meet, and then talk about other things after hitting them from a distance. If there are enemies who have experienced the arrow formation, they still dare to rush over.
The soldiers holding gongs, chariot troops and cavalry will teach them how to behave, and even the cavalry can be used as intercepting troops to prevent them from escaping.
"Equip a shield!"
The craftsman began to hang the shields one by one in front of the armor, and also thoughtfully relocated another set of targets.
After all, there is a difference between an ordinary shield and a tower shield.
The arrow I just used is a cone-shaped arrow. This type of arrow is the most common arrow. It is a flat prism shape. It is used for killing and can also be used to break armor, but its lethality and armor-breaking ability are weak. The advantage is that it is cheap. Easy to manufacture.
“Swish swish swish!”
“Swish swish swish!”
Eight feather arrows shot towards the target quickly.
"Count!"
"Fifty meters, normal shield, broken shield."
"Fifty meters, tower shield, broken shield."
"One hundred meters, normal shield, broken shield. Update without error@"
"One hundred meters, tower shield, unbroken shield."...
Yang Gan nodded. It was obvious that the quality of his home-made shields was very good. After all, they were fixed on wooden shields with steel plates. It was pretty good that they could penetrate such a long distance.
But shooting through and killing someone are two different things. Except for the fifty-meter target, any other target that can break the shield will have an arrow stuck on the shield.
Even if you hold on to death, you can only damage the enemy's shield arm, and this also depends on luck.
When Yang Gan brought the armor-piercing arrow, the situation immediately became clear. It is slender than the tapered arrow and has stronger penetrating power. It can break through leather and scale armor at medium and long distances, but its effect on plate armor is not ideal. The disadvantage is that it can kill Little force.
Each arrowhead has its own advantages and disadvantages. The experiments here are all standard equipment, and Yang Qian's favorite is the one. (This chapter is not finished yet!)

It's a three-edged arrow.
The triangular arrow has a triangular shape with barbs and blood grooves. It has strong armor-piercing ability and lethality, but the manufacturing process is complicated and the cost is high. @精品\/书馆*First update~~
In fact, there is not much difference in the current technology for casting arrowheads. The key lies in the materials. The more complex the arrowheads, the higher the requirements for materials.
Otherwise, it may not be injected into the human body, but it will be blocked by the armor.
Yang Gan threw the pulley bow to Ou Yexia, patted it, and said, "Not bad. Although it has similar performance to our bows and arrows, it can save a lot of energy. Please add more oil."
"Your Majesty, please don't worry. After Xiaoniang Zhang is busy during this period, I will keep pestering her. She will definitely not be able to accept it and teach me new steel materials."
Yang Qian gave him a thumbs up. Yes, people like Zhang Yumeng can only smooth their hair. Once they soften their hearts, they will be easier to talk to.
"Have the meteorites been coming one after another recently?"
Ou Yexia said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. Meteorites are constantly being delivered every month. I put them all in the most confidential inventory. Without my key, ordinary people can't even get in."
Yang Gan nodded, but still warned, "Use this thing as little as possible. No one can use it without my order."
"promise."
Look, after nothing happened, Yang Qian went back to continue having fun. The sacrifices have begun. If you don't have fun, it will be useless. Starting tomorrow, you will be busy.
Compared to Yang Qian's leisurely style, Zhang Yumeng had changed her clothes early. Her clothes were precious Shu brocade, which could not be bought even if you had money, and were limited edition.
She sat on the specially made desk and began to draw design drawings on the paper.
This kind of simple machine is just trivial to Zhang Yumeng.
But this manufacturing machinery not only requires building the machinery, but also requires time for debugging. In order to speed up the progress, Zhang Yumeng could only divide the craftsmen into several teams, each performing their own duties.
Looking at the drawings in hand, the thresher and centrifuge are all easy to build, but the press needs strong rotational force.
Zhang Yumeng Xiumei frowned slightly and started writing and drawing on another piece of white paper.
I am afraid that the voltage of the battery is not enough, so I need to increase the voltage. Fortunately, this small one is very simple.
In the blink of an eye, three or four days flew by.
Not only Yuntong County, but all the major vassal states in the Central Plains have begun to get busy. No one will start a war now.
Everyone is rushing to collect this season's food, but some are happy and some are sad.
If nothing unexpected happens, Yuntong County will build granaries again. Some granaries that were previously unreasonably designed will be demolished and rebuilt due to the replacement of new and old grains. This will not only expand the space, but also extend the shelf life.
Zhuangzi, mansion.
Yang Gan, Cao Wushuang and Mu Qing looked at the bronze tripod in front of them. This tripod was round in shape with a lid on it. When opened, there was a compartment in the middle.
Put saltpeter in the outer circle to make ice, and put fruits, drinks or snacks in the middle circle, it can have a cold and cool feeling.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I really didn't know that there were such skilled craftsmen in Yuntong City. This gold-stitched craftsmanship is simply the pinnacle of excellence."
Stroking the whole body of the bronze tripod with his hand, there are intertwined patterns of cyan and gold everywhere.
Solemn, beautiful and grand.
"How much does it cost?"
"120 gold." Cao Wushuang said.
Yang Gan was surprised and asked, "Is it so expensive to order?"
Cao Wushuang said along the golden lines, "These are all gold. The entire bronze tripod is worth no less than fifty gold."
Yang Gan nodded, it was a good deal, it was a great deal, he had plenty of money, and now he was slowly adding some luxurious furniture and utensils to the house.
At this moment, a hurried figure rushed out of the elevator and almost hit the bronze tripod.
Yang Gan was shocked and immediately rushed over and placed him in front of the visitor. The visitor directly put his head into Yang Gan's arms.
Yang Gan lowered his head and saw Zhang Yumeng, who looked like a little tabby cat, staring at him with red eyes, looking around. .
"What's wrong with you? What if you knock over my bronze tripod?"
"Wow!"
"Yang Qian, do you have any conscience, auntie? (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 461 is done
I haven't slept for three days, and I finally made the machine for you. You actually do this to me? "
After learning that it was to protect the bronze tripod, Zhang Yumeng's fiery temper immediately came to the fore.
Yang Qian was stunned and said happily, "Have you done it all?"
"Nonsense, it's not difficult."
Zhang Yumeng broke away from his arms, looked at the bronze tripod, and kept making tut-tsk sounds.
"You are getting better and better at enjoying it. This thing is really beautiful. Sigh, if it were this big in the previous life, it would have sold for at least 100 million." Zhang Yumeng kept mumbling.
Yang Gan smiled and said, "Please, Bronze Ware, I'll pay back 100 million. These days are getting more and more decisive. I will definitely eat peanuts."
"Let's not talk about it for now. Let's go. I have to make arrangements for the machine."
Zhang Yumeng waved his hand feebly, "Go ahead, I want to sleep. What if I die suddenly. Update without error@"
After saying that, she pointed at her eyes in grievance and said, "Look, the bags under my eyes are about to fall off. It's easy to age quickly like this, okay?"
"They all use it, right?"
"I've taught you how to use it several times, but I can't hold it any longer." Zhang Yumeng stretched for a long time, his eyes narrowed to a slit, and he didn't even take a shower, staggering toward the Walk into the room.
Yang Gan nodded, and after saying hello to the girls, he took Krisna and Belika and walked downstairs.
When I arrived outside the mansion, I saw dozens of carriages parked outside. The carriages were filled with machines, which may have been made of steel. Except for the heavier motors and some specific parts, the overall machine was much lighter than it looked.
"Your Majesty, there are ten rapeseed threshing machines, ten stir-frying machines, five presses and five filters here."
When Li Wang saw Yang Qian coming, he ran over and handed over his hand to report.
Yang Gan took inventory of the machines on the carriage and said, "Old Chen, go nearby. A large number of rapeseeds have been harvested and dried for more than three days. You can pull all the rapeseed threshing machines over."
"Then use that to send the stir fryer, press and filter to the new factory. After threshing, all the black rapeseed will be pulled into the new factory."
Li Wang immediately accepted the order. .
