The biography of Gu Qi, a poor girl

"Notify the wild wolf and block the first point."

Gu Qi and the others stayed in ambush in Yushan for four full days, naturally not for the purpose of beheading a few hundred soldiers.

There are six blockade points and two evacuation points before and after Yanwangkou.Point No. [-] is sixty feet away from Yama's mouth, and the narrowest point is only two feet away, which is also a good position to cut off the retreat of deserters.

The team ambushing at point [-] consists of nine people, code-named Wild Wolf, and it is the best team with crossbow arrows in the hands of the people brought this time.

As for the wolf that brought an improved version of the three-bow crossbow, its prototype comes from the three-bow bed crossbow.

As the name suggests, the three-bow bed crossbow is supported by a wooden frame base, on which three large bows are mounted, and uses the combined power of the three strong bows to shoot long arrows.This kind of bow and crossbow is extremely difficult to launch. The most powerful three-bow bed crossbow requires eight oxen to pull the bowstring, so it is also called "eight oxen crossbow".

For the convenience of use, two capstans are usually installed on both sides of the rear of the three-bow bed crossbow, and the bow strings are pulled apart by the lever force of turning the capstans.Even so, at least two people are required to operate it together. If the matching long arrow is made of hardwood with a length of more than one meter and the arrowhead is made of fine iron, like a long spear, four people are required to operate it.

Due to the huge impact force of the explosion when the three bows are pulled together at the same time, the crossbow not only has a long range but also has amazing attack power when fired.

According to statistics, the range of a well-made three-bow crossbow can reach as far as 500 steps, which is about [-] meters today. It is the bow with the longest range in the feudal period. Sniper rifles have a fight.It is also the most lethal sniper weapon in the cold weapon era.

In addition, the three-bow bed crossbow can also be used in siege warfare as a stepping arrow. The soldiers responsible for assisting the attack use the arrow shaft as a fulcrum to climb up the city wall with their hands and feet, which is equivalent to a siege ladder.

The advantage of the three-bow bed crossbow is obvious in the military warfare of the cold weapon era, but of course it also has disadvantages.For example, because of its huge structural ladder frame, it is very cumbersome and troublesome to carry. Fortunately, later generations added six-wheel supports on both sides of the tripod to facilitate marching.Of course, it is only limited to spacious flat ground, if it is a mountain road, it will not be so easy.

The craftsman Zhang Lu who can design and manufacture the three-bow bed crossbow was hired back to Yuzhong with a lot of money two months ago. At this time, in the Four Seas Guard City, he has led a group of carpenters to build five three-bow bed crossbows that can be used for city defense. .

The improved version of the hand-held three-bow crossbow in the hands of the wild wolf players was also developed by Zhang Lu.Its shape is similar to that of a general hand-held single crossbow, only the position of the hand is lengthened to form three short bows, which can shoot three arrows at the same time.

Due to the smaller scale of bows and crossbows, which are hand-held and light, their range cannot be compared with that of the three-bow bed crossbow. The normal range is nearly [-] feet, and the furthest top-level Seiko can only reach [-] feet.

Zhang Lu's craftsmanship is naturally good, but the materials that can be found in Yuzhong are not top-notch.The furthest range of the three-bow crossbow in the hands of the wild wolf players is forty feet, and its lethality is amazing enough, especially for ambushes in the wilderness.

At this time, at the No. [-] ambush point, after being severely injured, the Huwei army fled in a hurry and thought they had escaped by chance, but they didn't know that their group of people was like a flock of sheep entering the hunting circle, and they had already become meat on the chopping board.

"Scattered sheep have entered the ambush range, ready to shoot!"

Except for the team leader, the nine members of the wild wolf team were divided into groups of four, and the hatchback cooperated. One group shot forward, and the other group loaded the rear. One advance and one retreat, twelve arrows were fired every time, without missing a beat. The arrows see blood.
