All Heavens: Starting from Douluo

The Mohist government city is hidden in the mountains.

Built against a mountain, the terrain is unique.

There are steep cliffs and deep valleys for hundreds of miles, making it almost impossible to climb.

Exceptions like Bai Feng who can fly...

Below the Mohist government city, there is a turbulent river surrounded by dense reefs. Ships often run aground when sailing, resulting in shipwrecks and fatalities.

Similar to the moats of many cities.

However, it is more effective than those moats.

Very good at making it difficult for the attacker to transport troops.

What's even more peculiar is that because it is built on a mountain, under the influence of the terrain, it is also covered by the unpredictable sea of ​​clouds. The climate is sometimes sunny and sometimes rainy, making it difficult to find the correct route in the sudden sea of ​​clouds.

Well, like the wrong line, the Mohist family reserved it for outsiders.

It doesn't matter if you go wrong.

Just be careful in your next life.

When powerful crossbows are fired down, one has to avoid them three times.

Combined with various mechanisms to eat, it will definitely make every bad visitor who goes the wrong way unable to eat and wander around, and will not want to revisit the same place in the next life.

Inside the organ city, water is used as power.

This should be the earliest water-driven urban defense device.

However, everyone knows about things like agencies.

There is nothing wrong with the design of small mechanisms being more complicated, but if even the large mechanisms are designed to be quite complicated, then you are asking for trouble for yourself, because complex things will be more difficult to repair. If you don't repair them, you don't know when. The aging of a certain small part will cause a certain mechanism to be scrapped as a whole, thus increasing the total amount of daily inspection tasks.

Therefore, it is not easy for city defense agencies to become too complicated.

There are only two main features.

The first point is that the leather is solid, resistant to damage and has low wear and tear.

The second point is that it is simple, efficient and quick to use.

If the hydraulic drive is a genius idea, then the complex mechanisms in the Mohist Mechanism City later are the work of a fool.

"Water has no permanent momentum, and soldiers have no permanent shape."

"Water is both hard and soft."

"If you don't fight, no one in the world can fight with you."

"If it goes into a basin, it becomes a basin; when it goes into a bottle, it becomes a bottle."

"Anger becomes a river and sea, peace becomes a silver mirror."

"The main thing is good control, and when necessary, it can stir the water, and use inertia to provide unparalleled power to the gear, so powerful that it can fly."

Sitting on the back of the machine beast Suzaku.

Lin Chaoci raised his head and looked at the arrows shining coldly like stars above his head.

Ignore the shouting Jing Tianming.

He ignored the stunned Shao Yu.

Withdrawing his gaze, in the dim cave, under the shining of countless "stars" above his head, he smiled and said: "The manpower, material resources, and cost required for the daily maintenance of these powerful crossbows should not be a small number, right?"

The law of conservation of dynamics in this world still exists.

Therefore, the bulk of the cost of any crossbow lies in the bowstring.

No matter how good the bowstring is, it cannot withstand being fully stringed twenty-four hours a day.

The consequences of keeping the string full for a long time are not just small problems such as bow string disintegration, crossbow ignition, and crossbow stalling. The most terrible consequence is that the bow arm breaks. If a bow arm breaks, it means that the crossbow is scrapped. When it breaks, The parts scattered in an instant will be affected by the full strength of the string, causing extremely strong destructive power to the surroundings.

The distance is too close, no less than a frag grenade.

And in such a huge crossbow formation, as long as there is a problem with one crossbow, other crossbows will soon be affected and have problems.

Maybe someone will say that the Mo family can not string the bow and crossbow. It is not too late to string the bow and crossbow after confirming that the person coming is an enemy?

Listen.

Both those who played with crossbows and those who did not play with crossbows were silent.

Crossbows are different from bows.

The crossbow is cocked first.

The bow is nocked first.

In other words, the normal operation process of any crossbow is to first pull the bow string, snap it into the reserved slot, then install the bow and arrow in the slot, finally aim, pull the trigger, and shoot the arrow.

For a bow, you first need to nock the arrow and take the arrow into your hand.

Then, hold the arrow and draw the bowstring at the same time.

One hand is behind, holding the nock or fletching of the arrow.

One hand is in front as a holder for the arrow shaft.

It can also be used as rough aiming and positioning.

Finally, let go and shoot the arrow.

Therefore, the cost of maintaining a crossbow is higher than that of a bow of the same value. The biggest advantage of a crossbow is that it is quick to use. A standard archer needs to train for a month to be qualified, but a crossbowman only needs one or two days. It can be done quickly, especially since the Song Dynasty also developed an eight-oxen crossbow, which directly pushed the power of the crossbow to its peak.

Because of this, after seeing this "bright starlight" scene, the first thought in Lin Chaoci's mind was the terrifying maintenance costs, followed by the lethality, and finally whether the existence of these crossbow arrows violated Mozi's concept of "love without aggression" and a series of random thoughts.

Hearing Lin Chaoci's question, Master Ban glanced at this strange young man in surprise.

However, when I think of Duan Murong’s introduction just now.

This strange young man was sent here by Prince Han.

I must have seen similar crossbows.

Especially among the six countries, only Qin Nu and Han Nu competed.

In its heyday, South Korea built strong and powerful crossbows with a range of up to 600 meters. Regardless of whether they were fired upwards or not, their lethality was true from 600 meters away.

Qin Nu had to avoid him.

Don't dare to shoot with Han Nu.

Lin Chaoci is familiar with bows and crossbows, which is not surprising.

Without doubting his presence, he proudly boasted: "Our Mohist family has modified these crossbow arrows. They were fired straight from the crossbow, fired through holes, and powered by gas. Now they hang from the top of the cave. The smoothness from top to bottom is no less than The crossbow shoots wildly. Because of this, you only need to polish the arrows from time to time. The repair cost is indeed not small, but it is not large either."

In human terms: we have transformed these crossbows into hidden arrows with holes similar to those in tomb-robbing novels. They use water vapor as power and shoot from top to bottom. With the help of gravity, the power of these arrows can be increased. One level, no less than an arrow shot from a traditional bowstring.

Lin Chaoci nodded thoughtfully.

The Mohist family can be regarded as relying on mountains and water.

Even water vapor has been studied.

The principle is probably similar to "blowing arrows".

However, you are so dependent on water power, what if someone poisons the water?

Are you counting on Xuanwu to change the water again?

Isn’t this still a shortcoming?

Find another way into the city, turn off the water, and don't care how many lines of defense you have. As long as they are water-powered, all of them are useless. The cunning rabbit still has three holes. Don't you, the Mohist family, prepare a second plan?

But... none of his business!

He is just a tourist, here to visit.

Also called a traveler.

These crossbows are integrated with the mountain rocks, and the firing devices behind these crossbows can't be seen at all. It's hard for Gai Nie to have a God's perspective here. There is no need to ask the brush about such a trivial matter. Because of this, Asking this question can be regarded as diverting the topic.

Otherwise, Jing Tianming was the only one shouting along the way, and the atmosphere would have been too heavy, especially for Robber Zhi. You said you were a joke, but you just stared at Gai Nie. Are you ready to stare Gai Nie to death? ?

Love rivals should be extremely jealous when they meet.

Come on, fuck him!

That’s how interesting it is!

You are so cowardly that you don't even dare to challenge the injured Ge Nie, "Robber Zhi, Robber Zhi, can you still give me, a traveler, a good sightseeing experience?"
