Vol 3 Chapter 1455: -Equipment update

The Lihuo tribe is one heart, it can be said that they are full of energy.
There is no time for a day to be idle for delivering prey cubs, transporting and planting wheat seeds, building cities and building houses.
Three months later, the city walls in all directions have been completed, and the city gate tower has almost been completed.
At the end of October, the weather had turned cold. Ji thief led a group of clansmen from the combat department, asked them to bring the siege hammer, and randomly found a stone wall location, and then arranged for someone to drag the siege hammer against the stone wall.
After hitting for ten minutes, the stone wall was safe and sound, let alone something wrong, it was just the surface of the flower.
Next to Usma, who followed, spit out: "My lord, this stone wall is so thick, it’s not a problem to sleep on a dirt mountain. It’s useless to hit the bronze wood with your head. Let me say, try , Let’s let Ahu pull out of the fighting department and hit it with a trebuchet."
The thief looked back at Usma: "Did you awaken the attributes of your demolition? Ah? What if it breaks?"
Usma pursed her lips: "It's not the king, I think so, since we want to test whether the stone wall is strong or not, let's try it bigger."
The thief asked Usma: "What should I do if it breaks?"
Usma patted her chest with a hand: "If it broke, I will repair it, what a big deal."
This is what Ji Zei waited for. At the moment, let Ahu pull the military department out, stand at the standard 500 paces away, and smash the stone wall.
At the same time, under the command of the thief, all the people of the tribe were scattered around the stone wall, whether inside or outside.
Ahu led the Military Fighting Department to the outside of the stone wall, spitting in his hand, waved his hand, and the Military Fighting Department's twenty trebuchets whizzed into the air, slamming down the stone wall without stopping.
The busy people in the city heard the huge boulders rumbling and smashing continuously, and the whole person was stupid, asking what was going on and what happened.
Fortunately, Aduo was comforted by the Ji thief's order to take people back and forth, so that he calmed the flustered people.
After a while, after each trebuchet smashed out about hundreds of boulders, Ji thief just called to stop, and brought people closer to see the stone wall.
It's just that a layer of skin peeled off on the outside, and the main structure inside was not lost at all.
Usma also said: "If you do engineering, you must have confidence in what you have made."
Seeing Usma's stinky ass, Ji Thief couldn't help but laugh, and instead let Ahu lead the military department around the position, and in one day, he tried it on the other three stone walls.
No one was damaged by the trebuchet.
As soon as the result came out, Ji Thief was very satisfied.
Nowadays, the basic construction of the stone walls and the gates of the city has been completed.
It was the arrow tower observation deck behind the stone wall, which was easily made.
Sitting in front of the tent on the construction site at night, under the bonfire, Ji thief was eating with a bowl, sipping and drinking soup, Ji thief looked at the crowd and said: "Now, the city has been initially completed. Next, the city gate and The defense facilities on the wall are gone."
Usma said: "I have researched new trebuchets these days, and I can make something more powerful."
Ahu nodded next to him: "Yes, Usma told me when he was resting before. The catapult he said is the same as the one you said before the king. I tried it when I was resting. It can hit about 670 steps. The only problem is that the leather used for pulling on the trebuchet is frequently replaced, and it is too heavy to be used in battle."
Usma looked at Ahu with a speechless expression, and looked back at Ahu: "You have said everything I said, what do you want me to say?"
Ahu: "···"
The thief frowned: "The catapult is of course the best weapon, but what I think is that another new weapon can be invented. A weapon that is more powerful and deterrent than the catapult. "
Usma weakly said: "My lord, are you talking about Ahuang again?"
Ah Huang, who was sullenly eating, raised his head and looked around blankly: "What?"
The thief screamed at Usma: "Don't talk nonsense, how can Ah Huang be a weapon."
Usma smiled awkwardly: "What kind of weapon do you plan to make, Lord?"
The thief squeezed his chin and groaned: "I plan to make a weapon that can be used on the city wall or on the sailing ship in the future."
Usma didn't understand: "What is that?"
Ji Zei tilted his head and thought for himself. It took him a long time to hit the ground and picked up a branch, found a clean place on the ground, and drew a bow and arrow pattern on it.
Usma was puzzled, and everyone around was puzzled. They opened their mouths and asked, "My lord, is this a bow and arrow?"
Ji Zei shook his head: "No, this is a bed crossbow."
Everyone croaked, and then look at the graphics drawn by Ji Zei, isn't it? Under the bow and arrow, there are other structures.
Like a bed, but also like something else.
But since the thief said it was a bed crossbow, this should be a bed below.
Isn't it? I couldn't suppress the doubts in my heart, and everyone asked: "That king, this, is the bed crossbow you mentioned?"
Ji Tie hummed: "If I look at it now, it may be because my painting is too vague to see clearly, and many details are not reflected."
"My lord, this is not a problem. The problem is that this bed crossbow is really the kind you said that it can be used on a sailboat or on a city wall?"
The thief nodded: "Of course, if this crossbow is used well, it won't be worse than a catapult."
As soon as he said this, Usma became unhappy, watching the thief said: "My lord, I have no problem with you saying that the bed crossbow is powerful, but you said that it is not worse than the trebuchet. I am not convinced. How could it be possible? It's a lie."
Ji thief: "···"
"I'm a puppy to lie to you." Ji Thief said: "In terms of area killing, the power of the bed crossbow is undoubtedly inferior to the catapult, but the bed crossbow is so powerful that it has a strong penetration and a long range."
"Farther than a trebuchet?" Usman asked wonderingly.
Ji Zei clenched his fists: "That's right! If the bed crossbow is used, the range of 800 steps will start."
Usma curled his lips: "The trebuchets I newly researched already have an attack range of six or seven hundred steps."
"Brother, yours is the maximum range, mine is the lowest range, can it be the same?"
Usma: "I..."
The thief waved his hand: "Let's not talk about it for now, hurry up and erect the city gate, and then we will start to study the crossbow carefully. In addition, the weapons of the combat department should also be updated."
"Use meteorite?" Usma asked tentatively.
The corner of Ji Thief's mouth twitched: "I used up the meteorite iron and the meteorite iron came from there. The updated weapon I said is not a melee weapon, but a long-range weapon."
"Remotely?"
The thief nodded: "Yes, it's a long-range weapon. It's time to make a crossbow."
"Crossbow? Is it a crossbow? It's not right, the king, the range of this crossbow you said is destined to be not a light thing. If it is held by the people, there is no need to fight, just carry the crossbow and walk. "Usma vomited.
Ji Zei rolled his eyes: "I wonder why you talk too much? Did I say to replace the bed crossbow? I said to replace the hand crossbow, do you understand it?"
"Hand crossbow, what's that?"
Not to mention Usma, even the other clansmen on the scene asked Ji thief in surprise.
Ji Zei pursed his lips, gestured with both hands in a range, and said: "The crossbow is probably so big that it can be held in hand. I plan to allocate it to wolf cavalry. Although they are all long-range firing weapons, compared to bows and arrows, The owner of the hand crossbow has the characteristics of stable shooting, strong penetration and easy to carry. Of course, there are two types of hand crossbows, one is the large crossbow used by infantry, the shooting range is longer than the bow and arrow, and the other is the small hand. Although the range of the crossbow is a bit closer than that of the bow and arrow, the dexterity is incomparable to the bow and arrow. The most important thing is the hand crossbow, which can be held in one hand. Think about it, on the back of the wolf, the wolf cavalry has a bronze sword in one hand. , With one-handed crossbow, isn't the combat power going up?"
Everyone closed their eyes and thought about it, wolf cavalry, there are specific impressions, as well as bronze swords, it is this hand crossbow, everyone really does not know what is going on there.
After looking around, Ji Thief pursed his lips and said nothing: "Anyway, when I make the crossbow, you will know what's going on."
