Chapter 187

PS: Thank you for the reward of "Huang Yinglong" and "fallen angel". To tell you the truth, I was really scared when I saw the reward of 50000 yuan Thank you very much for your support.

PS1: Thank you for the vote of "dark evil" and "Ibrahim"! Thank you, 300 appraisal votes have been reached, and I am in a good mood ~ hehe ~

PS2: let's stop the problem of magic sticks. I don't want Kay to become a "God said" prodigy. No one knows about his foundation for thousands of years, so let's call it a day.

PS3: sure enough, England still needs a fleet to enjoy!

Rocal raised his hand and exclaimed, "rudder! Turn the rudder

Suddenly, three or four strong men pushed the rudder hard, but slowly turned the rudder over, and the hull began to move sideways.

It's not about leaving or fighting. It's Keller's Secret Weapon - "crossbow preparation!"

The stone crossbow is not an arrow. It is soaked in tung oil for 60 days through the crossbow inlaid on both sides of the ship's side, and then the tendons are twisted. The tendons are soaked in fish glue and turpentine. They are very elastic. Even ordinary people can't pull them apart. So there is a kind of thing called winch here.

The winch is formed by a cross, with a strong man on each side slowly pushing it, and finally pulling the string to half open, which is almost OK. Opening it again may increase the range and power, but it will cause damage to the bowstring. This half open state is enough to shoot a distance of more than 1000 meters. In this century of only bows and arrows, the range of bows and arrows is about 230 meters This kind of weapon can be said to be cross era.

Of course, this weapon is not without weaknesses. First of all, it takes a long time to load ammunition, about once every 30 seconds. But in terms of its power, it is not a problem, because a red leaf warship has eight crossbows on one side and sixteen crossbows on both sides. Then there is the problem of ammunition.

The East-West track is concave, in other words, it is used to launch stone bombs. The requirements of this kind of stone bombs are very high, and it must be mined and polished by stonemasons above intermediate level, which increases the cost and time.

Maybe some people will say why not use metal? As long as the metal melts, it is easy to make ammunition in batches with a mold.

but there is one thing that can not be ignored: now the mining industry is not developed, iron is valuable. To the armor, sword, arrow, spear, horseshoe, horse armor, down to the ore pick, shovel, plow, no need for huge iron, Camaro is an island country, and can not waste iron on a large scale. All over the mountains and plains,

lead is too heavy, and it is a great pressure on the ship's load. Bronze is much more than lead. So, finally, we can only choose stones from all over the mountains and make complaints about ammunition (Tucao, England is really a lot of stones).

However, don't underestimate this thing. It's not made by Keller, nor created by him with the wisdom of later generations. It's the "homework" that his students completed in three years after he put forward the idea!!

Never underestimate the wisdom of ancient people!

The aim rate of the target can be increased by 20 times of the target accuracy of the target, which is similar to the target accuracy of the target set by the target!

Only after Rocal raised his hand, the sixteen strong men suddenly turned the winch in front of them, naked upper body, spitting out white gas. Then another small arm thick handle of the baby turned to his front. Once again, they were all strictly trained, stepping on the number 2,1,2,1, and slowly pulled the huge crossbow to half open.

Because it was strict training, they finished it almost at the same time.

"Aim!" He opened his fingers and Rocal cried.

Suddenly a strong man squatted down and began to adjust with the sight.

"Two thousand meters!" Roared Rocal, giving the distance by eye measurement.

Up two squares.

"Launch!" Rocal throws off his hand.

Like a meteor, the head and head sized shrapnel flies out directly with a sharp whistling sound. The speed and mass of this kind of thing is not just the head breaking and bleeding!

People who have been hit by stones know that they are red, swollen and bruised. They should be glad that their heads are broken and their blood flow is medium. Only when their muscles and bones are broken and their brains are splashed can they be called normal!

But the killing power of the stone is not so simple after being accelerated by the ox tendon!

Seeing that the barbarians did not react, the six stones were directly smashed into their cabins. The wood outside was directly smashed, and the sea water was constantly poured in. What's worse, these stones were good enough to hit out, and other stones that didn't go out were the most dangerous. After they broke the wall of the ship, they directly pierced or hit ten people inside The barbarians who blow their heads or break their sternal organs, and whose hands and feet are only broken after wiping, should kiss the toes of lucky women and look at their companions, a piece of mud! minced meat! minced meat! Blood mixed with meat, like a piece of red mashed potatoes, too disgusting!

And the attack is not over, the ship began to water, staggering, they may be able to use the number of people to scoop out the water, but the red leaf warship is not only one ah!Now that the first test is successful, will the next wave of attacks be far behind?

Hongye ridge has at least a hundred or more. This is a mixed fleet, not just a big red leaf warship. There are 15 large ships, 16 crossbows, 600 archers, 300 Marines, and a total of 1000 personnel.

Thirty five, eight gates (four on each side), two hundred archers, one hundred spearmen and four logistic personnel.

There are two types of small warships: one is the impact ship with long angle and thick skin, and the other is the extremely fast harassment ship. Besides the helmsman and sailor, there are more than 50 archers and arrows on it, which are specially used to shoot down enemy or suppress enemy ships. Both of them are close to attack and can be regarded as frigates.

If 260 crossbows are fired together, there may be a lot of them falling into the water, but most of them will hit the enemy ships accurately through the sight glass and skilled shooting.

More than 50 large keel ships, like fragile eggs, couldn't be blocked. They were directly broken into the ship wall, but they saw the sea water pouring into it. Many of the keel ships that had been hit by more than 30 rounds went down directly and slowly. The consequences of the sinking of large ships of this quality were huge whirlpools, even the barbarians who wanted to swim away at this time It was slowly sucked in by the huge whirlpool and buried at the bottom of the sea
