Chapter 34 - tester
Shangwen and the old man sent away King Qin, and they invited the old man to join their team to improve their weapons. The old man heard that he could play for Qin again. He immediately agreed, and Shang Wen asked the old man’s name. Only then did I know that there is only one word, called hi. Shangwen had to call him “Hi Lao”. Shang Wen didn’t know why there was only one word.
“Boom, boom,” several roars in the distance continued to blast. Shangwen and Hexi stood on the stage watching with a telescope.
“Successful, Xi Lao.” Shang Wen took the binoculars and carefully observed the impact point of the rocket after the bombing.
“Yeah, sir. I didn’t expect it. This rocket can hit so far. It is beyond the imagination of the old.” Elder Xi put down the telescope in his hand and looked at the billowing smoke rising in the distance.
“It’s been a month for Xi Lao. If it weren’t for Xi Lao’s improvement. I’m afraid the rocket will not hit so far.” Shang Wen said.
“You don’t have to be polite to Elder Xi. Let me see the specific effects of the rocket.” Shang Wen said, taking Xi Lao’s hand and walked off the stage.
Shangwen has moved his laboratory since he sent away Queen Qin. Today’s laboratory has a preliminary scale. On this basis, Shangwen began to improve the existing models of weapons he invented.
Especially rockets. Bamboo is used as a new material. Reduce the overall weight of the rocket. Grease paper was used to wrap the propellant and combat parts. The overall effect of the rocket has been significantly improved. Coupled with the refining of fierce oil. Nowadays, napalm rockets have been developed, but the number is very small.
For small rockets, a curved launch method is adopted. Shangwen was a little unhappy, but what was needed for war was such weapons and equipment, and he acquiesced in developing such a product.
Shangwen arrived at the impact point in the car. Start checking the distance between the impact points and so on.
Xi Lao looked at the large and small craters all over the floor, and was very generous.
Shangwen saw Xi Lao’s expression and said with a smile, “Xilao has any thoughts.”
“No, nothing. I just think that with such a weapon. Even the six-nation armies are difficult to defeat. I think at the beginning, the old men fought with the kings, and they were all soldiers fighting hard. On the battlefield, they can survive. Very few. The old man is one of them. Especially in the Battle of Handan, many people did not come back. If you have such a weapon, those old guys, too.” He said that Xi Lao was a little sad, and his eyes began to wet.
Seeing this, Shang Wen felt that it was necessary to divert some topics.
“Elder Xi, look, how far is this from the launch site.” Shang Wen asked.
“Oh, old man, take a look.” He said with a thumbs up and began to measure the distance. This kind of distance measurement method is still cultural and educational. But the good ones are not Shangwen. Because Shangwen’s concept of distance is very poor. It’s very easy to use for old age.
“According to estimates, there are almost eight miles of land. This distance is already very impressive. Such a distance. The army is stationed a little far away. Just take this rocket and blast it around. Then what kind of formation is there, and the layout of the camp? . As long as you launch a charge, the problem will be solved.” Elder Xi said happily. With that said, I thought it was time to fight on my own.
Shang Wen looked at this distance. “By the way, let’s start experimenting with the next test product, a crossbow equipped with a scope.” Shang Wen said suddenly.
“This, the bow and crossbow need to have a special archer to use. The old man suggested that we should find a special crossbowman in the army to test. Only these people can know how to use it well.” Xi Lao said.
“Well, just do that, go, and follow me to see Meng Tian’s army. Speaking of it. I haven’t seen him for this month. I don’t know how his cavalry unit has been trained.” Shang Wen left with Xi Lao. Hit point.
Meng Tian is in the army. Teams of cavalry rushed back and forth.
Some were assassinated with a halberd, and some were hacked back and forth with a machete. Looking at the grass man being knocked down, Shang Wen felt that this was a bit of a movie. Shang Wen is not particularly cold with these cold weapons. If it were not for gunpowder restrictions. Shang Wen can’t wait to be equipped with firearms right away. I really don’t catch a cold.
Xi Lao is very happy. because. Such an active Longteng force is exactly the one he didn’t have back then. Moreover, they are all cavalry, their speed and maneuverability are totally different. The same is true for the servants behind with the ordnance. Many of these people have participated in wars. I have special feelings for the army. Everyone’s expressions turned into very excited faces.
“Kill, kill, kill.” Teams of cavalry were rushing to kill. There was a rumbling roar in the distance, like the sound of a grenade exploding. But look back at horses. He didn’t move, and he had obviously adapted to the shock of the explosion sound. This is a good thing.
“Shang Wen, Shang Wen,” Meng Tian came over with a horse in the distance, followed by a cavalry.
“Huh.” A bunch of horses stopped behind. Then the dust floated over. Shang Wen waved his hand to beat the dust.
“I brought those new weapons again this time. It’s been a month. I almost miss you.” Meng Tian had already dismounted and began to open the equipment behind.
Shang Wen glanced at the soldiers. Good guys. There was a row of grenades pinned to his waist. There are at least ten. Shang Wen looked a little broken.
“What is this, Shang Wen. Two bamboo tubes. What is it?” Meng Tian had already opened the package.
“Oh, this is a telescope. Clairvoyance. It can see far away.” As he spoke, Shangwen began to demonstrate to Meng Tian.
Meng Tian followed Shang Wen’s demonstration and started to take a look.
I didn’t believe it at first. Pull it down in a while, take it up and have a look at it in a while. “This thing is so magical. Things in the distance can be placed in front of your eyes.” Meng Tian said.
“There is something more magical. Look at this.” With that, Shang Wen took out a crossbow with a scope and handed it to Meng Tian.
“This is.” Meng Tian asked.
“Sniper Crossbow”. Shang Wen said very simply.
With the experience of the telescope, Meng Tian began to adapt to the scope. Looked back and forth. Draw out a crossbow arrow. “Swish”. The arrow flew far away. Shot into a place in the distance.
“It’s far to see, but it’s not convenient to use.” Meng Tian said unhappily.
Shang Wen listened. Somewhat unhappy. What does it mean.
“Just let your crossbowman have a try. I’m a test product.” Shang Wen said.
“Huzi. Come.” Meng Tian said.
Speaking, a strong young man stood up. Nothing to say. There is no lyrics, answer, take the crossbow and draw the bow, hook it.
aim. The time is a bit long, not very straightforward. “Swish,” the arrow flew out. Hit a distant target. Then there was another one, another one.
Six arrows in a row. Just in the blink of an eye.
“How do you feel.” Meng Tian asked.
