Chapter 30

As soon as Liu Bu heard that it was the rumored big killing weapon, he became interested in it, and then said to Mao Shengli, "Uncle Ling really can make a divine arm crossbow?"

Mao Shengli said, "how dare villains cheat adults about these things?"

"Invite him, no, I'll invite him myself." Liu Bu couldn't wait. He took out Liu Bei's style of looking after the cottage three times.

The Mao family is one of the 13 big families that existed when Fushan opened its guard. It is also a military family for generations, but they have moved to live in a mountain village outside Fushan city.

Liu Bu invited him in person, which was a great honor. Mao Shengli was very excited and said, "villains guide adults."

The attendants found a horse for Liu Bu and asked him to ride it to visit maojia village.

There are not many horses in Fushan, only more than 50. Liu Bu is very dissatisfied. Liu Zhongyong already knows that this is the only one among all the thousands of households in the country. A thousand households have more than 50 horses. If other generals see it, they will be jealous to death. Of course, these horses are the private property of the Liu family, not the thousands of households.

Liu Bu is learning to ride a horse recently. As a modern man, where does he have a chance to ride a horse? So they were all clumsy, but no one doubted or thought there was anything wrong, because Liu Bu bragged directly: "in the past, young master, I used to ride in a sedan chair and a carriage. My carriage was built with 20000 Liang silver, and Quan Daming was just like this."

As the eldest childe of an aristocratic family, he looks more dignified in carriage and sedan chair. Others think so, so it's normal for him to learn to ride a horse now.

Liu Bu knew the importance of learning to ride a horse. Many records in history books are that when the generals were besieged by the enemy, they were defeated like a mountain. They only got out of the siege and escaped from heaven by having a fast horse.

Fushan Suo is old and broken. The walls are covered with moss and weeds. It is even more damaged outside the city. There are few mud brick houses. They are all thatched houses. There are many villages around Fushan Suo city.

They came to a mountain village at the foot of Fushan. There were about twenty or thirty families. Only a few houses were made of mud bricks. Others were made of wood or thatch, which looked very dilapidated and poor.

When Liu Bu and his party arrived, the locals looked very surprised and came out immediately. They saw Liu Bu's flag, knelt down one after another and said, "I've seen thousands of adults."

Liu Bu's current banner is general Wupin Wude and officer of thousands of households in Fushan. Among these ordinary people, the boss of military households in this area is a senior official, a very great senior official. It's a great crime of disrespect not to kneel at the sight of the official. It's possible to pull out and fight the board.

The adults were kneeling and the children were running around to watch the excitement. Liu Bu was the style of the eldest childe of the aristocratic family. He was very happy to see so many children and said to Liu Kang, "fat sugar!"

Liu Bu thinks he must be welcomed by people. First of all, he must be welcomed by children. Children are the hope of the future. If everyone likes him, he has hope. Therefore, he ordered Liu Kang's backpack to be filled with sugar. The two bags on Liu Kang's horse's back are filled with two bags of sugar. As long as he sees the children busy, he will give sugar, Then he is the most beautiful boy in Fushan.

Sure enough, Liu Kang took out a lot of sugar. Often as soon as he sprinkled it in the sky, the children scrambled to grab the sugar. Even some adults couldn't help grabbing it one after another.

With this skill, Lord Liu Bu's reputation as the most beautiful son of Fushan has spread. When everyone saw that adults made sugar, they smiled one after another and said, "Lord Xie."

Seeing that the people here were so poor and they were the people under the rule, he said to Liu Kang, "each person will be rewarded with ten Wen."

There are only twenty or thirty families and more than a hundred people here, each with ten Wen or more than ten liang of silver. It's a piece of cake for Liu bu. Now he has begun to establish a reputation for himself.

Everyone was even more happy. They kowtowed and said, "thank you, sir! Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"

At Liu Bu's command, Liu Kang immediately sent money. The people kept cheering, kowtowed and said, "I wish you success and longevity."

Liu Buwei sat on the horse, led by Mao Shengli, and came to the floor outside Mao's house.

Mao Shengli said, "please wait here and the villain will call my uncle out right away." as Liu Bu, it's a little condescending to let him enter the thatched house.

Mao Shengli immediately ran into the thatched room and said, "uncle, come out quickly. Thousands of adults are coming. Come and see you quickly."

Mao Shengli's uncle is Mao Qiao. Although his family has been a military Archer for generations, he has not inherited the military position. He has learned to forge iron and trained his skills. He usually helps everyone forge iron and repair weapons. He is also a knowledgeable person. He is a little surprised to see that Mao Shengli is wearing a hundred families' official clothes: "Oh! Am I right? Or is there something wrong with my eyes?"

Although in the eyes of the officials above, the hundred family officials of the guard office are a trivial small official, in the eyes of ordinary people, they are great families. They are in charge of 100 soldiers. They are very great. They have stepped into the ranks of officials and belong to people who can't afford it

Mao Shengli is just a military household. He has become a hundred households, which really surprised Mao Qiao.

Mao Shengli said, "today, Qianhu adults officially appointed me as the commander of the archer of Fushan Institute. The official title is Baihu. It has been passed down from generation to generation. We are proud of our ancestors and have come out."

Mao Qiao said, "thousands of adults come to see me. It's a relief to respect and reduce your price."

Mao Shengli said, "where does so much nonsense come from? Go to see you quickly. Don't let the adult wait for a long time. I recommend your Divine arm crossbow to the adult. When you see the adult later, you must know everything and say everything."

People are naturally afraid of officials. Since thousands of people come to the thatched cottage in person, Mao Qiao, who has seen the world, is also a little afraid. He goes out with his nephew and comes to the door.

Liu Bu was dressed in gold armor and stood high above the war horses. Surrounded by dozens of armored generals, he looked majestic.

Mao Qiao quickly knelt down and said, "villain Mao Qiao has seen thousands of adults. Adults are in good health."

Liu Bu said bluntly, "I heard Mao Shengli say you can make a divine arm crossbow. Take it out and have a look with me."

Mao Qiao said, "villains can really do this craft. Here is a sample, but I'm afraid it's not a place to show it?"

This is the entrance of the village. With so many villagers watching, it is really not the place to display the divine arm crossbow.

Mao Shengli was very clever and immediately ordered the villagers and children to disperse.

Taking the divine arm crossbow wrapped by Mao Qiao in a wooden box, they came to a flat place in the back mountain, where Mao Shengli usually practiced martial arts and archery.

This is a lawn, about three or four hundred meters wide. At the other end of the lawn, there are more than a dozen straw people with a target painted on them. It should be the place where he practices archery.

Mao Shengli opened the box and showed something inside that looked a bit like a composite crossbow.

He presented the crossbow to Liu bu. Liu Bu looked at it, a bit like the divine arm crossbow he saw in the video, and then said, "show me your hand."

Mao Shengli immediately put down the crossbow. He stepped on the other end of the bow string with his foot, then pulled the bow string to buckle, aimed at the target and shot the scarecrow 150 meters away.

Mao Shengli's shooting skill is very good. He shoots ten arrows in a row and hits the target continuously.

Liu Bu was very surprised. It was really an artifact, a big killer.

Now the military is equipped with hard bows. The harder the bow, the longer the range. Pulling the bow and arrow is similar to a modern thruster, but pulling the bow needs to pause and adjust the aiming, which takes more effort. Generally, more than ten arrows in a row are almost the same. Even when you are desperate, it is possible to pull more than 20 arrows. But it's estimated that we won't be on the battlefield for a long time. Therefore, the general archers should shoot in rotation, shoot an arrow, step back and take the arrow, relax and adjust a little, and prepare for the next shot. In this way, they should be able to put more arrows.

A skilled Archer can only shoot fifty or sixty arrows a day. That's why every Archer carries one or two pots of arrows, because after shooting two pots, he should be almost the same. His hands are too tired to move and can't be pulled until he has a rest.

Mao Shengli is such a strong man. When he shoots arrows with his hard bow, he has to rest before he can shoot again. But now he directly pulls the bow string with his feet and aims, saving a lot of effort. After shooting ten arrows, he looks calm and relaxed. It is estimated that it is not a problem to shoot ten more arrows.

Liu Bu exchanged a wink with Liu Zhongyong and immediately realized that this is an artifact, which can greatly save soldiers' strength. It can be said that now an archer can fight with two or three archers before.

They use their feet to pull the bow, which greatly reduces the strength of the archer's arm, which means that they can shoot more arrows faster. This is an ideal weapon.

China has long had the concept of maximum range and effective range. According to the bow types dropped in the Song Dynasty, the maximum range of the bow is generally about 200 meters and the effective range is within 120 meters. In other words, the effective exchange of fire between the two sides after the real battle formation is that JianNu is a little more powerful at a distance of 100 meters, reaching 120 meters.

It is also difficult for a general bow and arrow to hit the target after 100 meters, but seeing its divine arm crossbow, it directly hits the target of 150 meters, which means that its range is longer and higher than a general military standard.

With less effort, longer range and greater power, Liu Bu immediately realized the value of such things. He immediately said, "your name is Mao Qiao?"

Mao Qiao had always been a little timid and afraid of Liu Bu's majesty, but after his excellent works showed their divine power in front of Liu Bu, he began to be a little confident, and then said, "it's the villain."

Liu Bu said bluntly, "I appreciate your ability and your Divine arm crossbow. Come and work for me?"
