Golden Fishery
Vol 2 Chapter 1629: . This is the strongest?
Little Blake calls himself a Confucian businessman. This can be seen from the sports he likes. He likes golf, and Qin Shiou likes basketball. As for Billy? This guy likes rugby, so little Blake usually calls Billy a barbarian.
Qin Shiou asked Little Blake to open the longbow to see how powerful it was, but it was actually a problem for him.
He is a master of bow and arrow. A compound bow is handy for him. In his hand, it is a weapon that is not inferior to a firearm.
Simple than power, modern longbows are stronger than composite bows. The maximum range of arrows that it can launch can reach 400 yards, and the initial velocity of the arrows can reach more than 60 meters per second, which is equivalent to bolts falling from 60 floors. Or a stone thrown at a car at a speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour is powerful.
In addition, used in actual combat, the longbow can penetrate leather, padded armor and fabric, or penetrate the chain mail at a distance of 240 to 280 yards. At a distance of 200 yards, it can kill plate armor or fish scale armor and cause penetration, and if it is within 100 yards, if it is a frontal hit, even the plate armor can't resist it!
If it is within 50 meters, the longbow and arrow can be said to be invincible!
According to historical records, during the siege of Abergavenny in 1182, the Welshman fired an arrow through a four-inch thick oak door. In the same battle, a knight under William of Blaus was shot. The arrow pierced his chain mail skirt, leg armor, thigh, and through the inner leg armor and wooden saddle, all the way into the horse's back!
However, high-power weapons require matching power to use, and the English longbow requires a very high quality of archers. So many modern experts on cold weapons think that the power of the longbow is exaggerated.
Because if according to historical records, the power of the longbow is so great, the power of the archer is particularly great. And even modern people who are well-nourished and scientifically trained. In theory, it is also difficult to draw the traditional English war bow, let alone the British farmers who were in a state of famine at that time?
Billy’s work on the salvage of the pirate shipwreck really explained the matter. He salvaged some dry bones, saying that the spine and humerus with some bones had been found to have deformed changes. The British are the bones of archers. They did not have as good nutrition intake as modern people at the time, but through pathological training and special training, there is no pressure to pull this longbow.
Under Qin Shiou’s teasing, Xiao Blake had to take out a long bow to prove his point. In the oil. It still maintains flexibility.
Qin Shiou helped Little Blake to set the bowstring, pulled it and tried it, and then exclaimed: "Xiete, it's unbelievable. This bow and arrow have to be kept underwater for hundreds of years, right? It can be pulled away? Except for our country's. The King of Yue Goujian sword, I have never seen such a perverted ancient cold weapon."
The bow is still flexible, but the bowstring is not working. Little Black drove the duck onto the shelf. He took two deep breaths, with a solemn expression on his face. He held up the bow with his left hand, and put an arrow on the bowstring with his right hand, ready to pull it away.
Qin Shiou went up and pretended to remind him: "Hey, brother, don't blame me for not telling me in advance. The English war bow is different from other bows and arrows. It is not the archer who receives the greatest force. It is the archer who receives the force. That is, your left hand receives the force. The biggest, don’t strain your muscles."
Little Black had finally gathered up the strength of archery, but when Qin Shiou interrupted, his strength was lost. Can only curse and draw the bow again.
He took two deep breaths again, his chest and abdomen muscles tightened, and his legs stretched out into a horse stride. The right hand tried to pinch the arrow feathers and prepare to pull back.
At this time Qin Shiou stepped up again and said: "Be careful, man, don't let the string open, it will hurt the bow too much-you remember, this bow is your British treasure, and it's still Antique weapons."
The concentrated attention was finally dissipated again, and Little Black couldn't help but scolded his mother: "Fuck squid, Qin, you get out of my way! You **** fellow, what is the use of using this kind of indiscriminate means? I will definitely show you that our bow is the best bow and arrow in the world!"
Qin Shiou shrugged, stood to one side, holding his arms and waiting to see, he knew that Little Black would definitely not be able to shoot a powerful arrow.
Archery is a kind of warfare. What is important is to do it all in one go, then fail again and again. Little Blake will have already exhausted his heart.
Little Blake gathered his strength again, but he made a few gestures and put down his bow and arrow. Billy waited impatiently and said, "Brother, can you please shoot out quickly? Are you shooting arrows or shooting tubes? The tube is faster than you... Xuete, I didn't mean that..."
Qin Shiou looked at him in horror, while Little Blake was full of anger: "Fak squid, you two bastards, I won't let you go!"
While roaring, little Blake slammed the bowstring back, only to hear a crisp sound, the antique bowstring broke all of a sudden...
Billy was dumbfounded now, but Qin Shiou was mentally prepared and explained: "It doesn't matter. The bowstrings were previously tanned with lamb intestines or tendons. After such a long time, they would lose their toughness. It is normal for them to break. ."
It is true that the bowstring has no toughness and elasticity. If the normal bowstring is severely broken, the bounced bowstring may stretch on the human face and cause injury, and the bowstring breaks and hangs down like a rope.
Hearing his unsavory words, Billy was very dissatisfied, and shouted: "What is normal? This is antique, understand? I found such a bowstring, you broke it for me?"
Qin Shiou waved his hand and said, "Okay, man, isn’t it more important for our brother’s safety? The bowstring is just broken, not lost, just stick it with turpentine oil."
Billy murmured: "Hope, I have figured out who this longbow and this armor will be sold to. The absolute value of the longbow and this armor is millions. You can't break the bowstring. If you lose any one, the value will fall. A lot."
Putting away the longbow, Qin Shiou smiled and looked at Little Black, and said, "This is the world's number one English war bow? I think that's nothing more."
Little Blake was furious, and said, “When you change into a new bowstring, I must show you the power of our bow. Isn’t this a joke, understand? Brother, I’m not a joke!"
Billy’s salvage team continued to work. From time to time, whale oil barrels were pulled out of the water and then immediately sent into the cabin. Special personnel began to clean the whale oil in a vacuum environment to display the precious antiques inside. (To be continued~^~)
