Chapter 195: Wonderful to Me, Great England
PS: Thank you for the reward of "Huang Yinglong” and " Fallen Angel”. To be honest, I was really scared to see the reward of 50,000 starting coins... thank you very much for your support.
PS1: Thanks for the "Dark-Evil” and “Ibrahim” reviews! Thank you. Three hundred votes. I'm in a good mood.
PS2: That's it for the priests, and I don't want Kai to be a "God said" priest, because no one in the base industry has known that for millions of years, so let's stop there.
PS3: Sure enough, England still needs a fleet to have fun!
Roccal raised his hand and shouted, "Turn the rudder! Turn the wheel!”
Suddenly, three or four lexes pushed hard on the rudder, just slowly flipping the rudder, while the hull began to shift sideways.
It's not about leaving or picking up a starboard battle, it's about Kerall's secret weapon - "Ready for the crossbow!! ”
A stone crossbow, not an arrow, is soaked in tongue oil for sixty days by a crossbow embedded on either side of the side of the boat, and then stranded with beef muscle. The beef muscle is soaked with fish glue and pine oil. It is very elastic and can be used as a bow string, even if ordinary people can't pull it apart, so there is something called a winch here.
The winch is formed by a cross shape, pushed slowly by a strong man on both sides, and finally pulled the string to half-open, which is almost okay, then it may increase the range and power, but it will cause damage to the bow string, this half-open state is enough to eject thousands of meters of distance, in this only bow and arrow range is about 230 meters in the centuries, this weapon can be described as timeless.
Of course, the weapon is not without a weakness, first loaded at a long interval of about 30 seconds, but it is not a problem in terms of his power, because there are eight stone crossbows on one side of a red leaf warship, 16 stone crossbows on both sides, and then ammunition.
The orbit of this thing is concave, in other words, rock projectiles, which are demanding and must be exploited and polished by masons above the intermediate level, which increases costs and time.
Someone might say, "Why not use metal?" Metals can easily be manufactured in bulk using molds as long as they melt.
But there is one thing that cannot be ignored: in this era of underdeveloped mining, iron is a precious thing, going up to armor, swords, arrow heads, spears, horseshoes, horseshoes, armour, down to pickaxes, shovels, plows, none of which require a huge amount of iron. Camelot is an island country, and cannot waste iron on a large scale.
Lead is too heavy, it is a huge pressure on the ship's weight, and bronze is more than lead, so ultimately you have to make ammunition out of rocks all over the mountains (in a slot, England really has a lot of rocks).
But don't underestimate this thing, it wasn't made by Kerall, it wasn't created by Kerall with the wisdom of the next millennium, it was his creativity, and his students complemented it with “homework" over three years!!
Never underestimate the intellectual power of the ancients!
There's a sight on that stone crossbow, it's made of wood, a sight similar to a grenade launcher, and it can be sighted slowly through experience. It's a very delicate setting, you just need to aim, and you can hit each other very precisely. This method improves the accuracy by at least twenty times!
Only after Roccal raised his hand, the sixteen strong men turned the winch in front of them naked and spitting in white, and then the other baby's chunky arm turned in front of them and turned again, they were all rigorously trained to step on the 2,1,2,1 number and slowly pulled the giant stone crossbow halfway open.
Because it was rigorous training, they did it almost at the same time.
“Aim!” Five fingers wide open, Roccal shouted.
Suddenly, a strong man squatted down and began to adjust with a sight.
“Two thousand meters!!!” Roccal shouted, gazing at the distance.
Double check up.
“Fire!” Roccal slammed his hand.
Like a meteor, a stone bullet the size of a man's head flew out with a sharp whistle, and that speed multiplier was more than just a bloodshed!
Everyone who has been hit by stones knows that redness and bruising should be fortunate. The blood flow from head breaks is moderate. Muscle fractures and brain splashes are normal!
But it's definitely not as simple as the damage that this rock brings when it's accelerated by beef!
Just see the barbarians have not reacted yet, the six stones directly crashed into their cabins, the wood outside is broken directly, the sea water is constantly poured in, and even worse, the stone bullets that didn't go out are good, the other stone bullets are the most dangerous, the stone bullets smashed the walls of the boat and directly punched the number of people inside, or blew their heads, or broke the sternum gut, those barbarians who just broke their hands and feet after the bomb should go kiss the toes of the lucky woman, look at their companion, a piece of meat mud! Meat mud! Blood mixed with meat mud, like a red potato mud, disgusting!
And while the attack is not over, the ship starts to flood and shake, they may be able to scoop the water out in numbers, but there is more than one red leaf battleship!
Now that the first test shot is successful, will the next wave attack be far?
At least 100 Red Leaf Ridge, this is a hybrid fleet, not just the Red Leaf Big Ship, 15 Big Ships, 16 Stone Crossbows, 600 Archers, 300 Marines, plus 1,000 Logistics Managers.
Thirty-five medium-sized ships, eight doors (four on each side) with 200 archers, 100 spear troops and a total of 400 logistics personnel.
The small ship, 50, is divided into two types: one with long horns and thick skins, a very fast impact ship, and the other a very fast harassing ship, which is filled with more than fifty archers and arrows, with the exception of the helmsman and sailor, specializing in shooting down enemies or suppressing them, both of which are close to attack and can be regarded as frigates.
Two hundred and sixty rock crossbows were fired in full, and there may be a lot of falling water, but more is through scopes and skilled shooting at ships hitting the enemy with precision.
More than fifty big dragonbone ships like vulnerable eggs can't be stopped, they were directly broken through the ship's walls, but they saw the noise of the sea water pour into it, many more than thirty rounds of dragonbone ships directly and slowly sunk down. The consequence of this quality of large ship sinking is a huge vortex, even at this time the savages who want to swim away are slowly sucked into the sea floor...
