Handan, weapon workshop.

Gong Yi really stroked the weapon in front of him, and the whole person was extremely excited, two lines of tears slowly flowed from his eyes, and he muttered in his mouth: "Finally, it was finally made by me." ”

Several Zhao masters were beside Gong Yu Zhen, and they also had great emotion in their eyes, and they couldn't help but have a little admiration in their eyes when they looked at Gong Yu Zhen.

What appeared in front of the public was a bed crossbow.

Truth be told, the bed crossbow in this era, although not commonplace, is also a weapon that can be used on a large scale on the battlefield.

But if it was just an ordinary bed crossbow, the public would naturally not be so moved, and several masters of Zhao State would not be so admired.

The structure of this bed crossbow is more sophisticated and complex than the bed crossbow of Zhao Guo today.

There are two cross-shaped twisting shafts on the left and right in the front, between the winch shaft and the crossbow machine is a traction rope made of ox tendons, then there is a lookout and a hanging knife, and then a towing hook is fixed in the middle of the crossbow machine, and the rear is three four-stone strong bows united together.

A master craftsman of Zhao couldn't help but open his mouth and said to the public loser: "Master Gong, I don't know how to use this thing?" ”

Gong Zhen raised his head, the corners of his eyes that were still full of tears just now were already radiant at the moment, stroking the bed crossbow in front of him, as if he was caressing a lover in his previous life, and smiled at several Zhao masters in front of him: "Everyone, why don't you go to the test site to try this crossbow?" ”

Moments later, the Proving Ground.

Standing in front of this bed crossbow, Gong Yi patted the bed crossbow very proudly and said: "This crossbow is a secret technique passed down by my Gong Loser in ancient times, with a total of twelve stones for three crossbows, and the range can reach up to 1,200 steps. ”

"Twelve hundred steps?" The eyes of several Zhao Guo masters present were about to bulge out.

In this era, the most outstanding crossbow undoubtedly came from Korea.

The peerless crossbows produced in Korea, such as Xizi, Shaofu, Shili, and Yuanlai, all have well-known names, and are said to be able to shoot 600 paces away.

Extrapolating from this, the maximum range of the Korean crossbow should be around 600 to 700 steps.

This is already the strongest crossbow in the whole of China today, and now the public loses his belly and really says that his crossbow can shoot 1,200 steps?

Obediently, this range is directly doubled, and the effect on the battlefield is simply not too great.

Not to mention anything else, the two armies are facing each other, this hand is long and the opponent is short, and it definitely shoots the enemy to the point that he has no temper at all.

Gong Yu Zhen looked at the stunned Zhao Guo master craftsmen in front of him, and he was also a little proud in his heart.

This eight-bull crossbow is actually not a public loser's stunt, after all, the belly is really not a public loser.

This kind of crossbow is actually recorded in the ink book written by Mo Zhai, the patriarch of the Mo family, which is different from the book of Mozi that can be taught publicly, but it is the secret of the Mo family, and it has always been kept by generations of Mo family giants.

The father of the belly is a contemporary giant, and the belly is regarded as the successor and the chief master of the Mo family, and it is naturally not unusual to have seen the Book of Ink.

It's a pity that my father said that this thing is an ominous thing, and it can never be made to harm the world, so although the Mo family has the manufacturing process in hand, they have never made this eight-bull crossbow.

As a person of the younger generation, he naturally disagrees with the words of his antique father. He had already decided to wait until he took over as the giant to dedicate the eight-ox crossbow to the King of Qin.

As for the eight-bull crossbow in front of him, in fact, it is just a test hand, the belly has already left the back hand, this eight-bull crossbow will fall apart completely if it is shot three or four times at most, and no one can restore it without a process diagram at that time.

For the current belly truth, this eight-bull crossbow actually only needs to be shot twice.

Belly Zhen picked up an arrow as thick as an arm, and smiled at several Zhao masters in front of him: "This arrow is aimed at Tieling, and it is extremely penetrating, if it is hit within five hundred steps, even the armored cavalry will not be spared." ”

"What" Zhao Guo's craftsmen were shocked.

You must know that the heavy armor of armored cavalry is now the most powerful protective weapon in Zhao State and even in the entire Chinese world, and this eight-bull crossbow can actually threaten the lives of armored cavalry?

"Someone, bring a suit of armored cavalry armor!"

A moment later, at the chorus of several wrestlers, the winch began to squeak and turn, the three bowstrings were slowly filled, and the thick arrows were aimed at a wooden shelf five hundred paces away, on which was covered with the armor of an armored cavalryman.

In the sound of clicking, all the bowstrings were completely full.

Belly Zhen smiled proudly, squatted down, raised the hammer in his hand and gently aimed at the hanging knife and smashed it.

"Buzz!"

The giant arrow flew out in an instant, slicing through the air with a sharp sound, hitting the armor of the armored cavalry with incredible accuracy.

There was a loud bang, and the stake was knocked down by the tremendous impact, and the sawdust flew sideways.

A moment later, several Zhao State masters looked at the armored cavalry armor in front of them that had been shot through a large hole in their chests, and couldn't help but look at each other.

A moment later, several masters saluted at the same time, their tones extremely respectful.

"The master of public defeat can make such a divine weapon, and he should be the chief general!"

Gong Yu really looked at these Zhao masters who were convinced in front of him, and he was also proud in his heart.

After these months of getting along day and night, of course, he also knows that these masters are all top craftsmen in the world, and it is precisely because of this that gaining their admiration makes the public lose belly more fulfilling.

With this sense of achievement, Gong Yi Zhen happily picked up another slender and long javelin-like crossbow arrow, and smiled at several Zhao masters in front of him:

"I want you to know that there is actually another use for this eight-bull crossbow, this arrow is called a stepping arrow, and if it is fired within two hundred paces, it can be nailed directly into the city wall. All it takes is a number of Eight Ox crossbows to fire at the same time, so that the soldiers can climb the city wall on top of this pedal arrow, without the help of a ladder! ”

After happily pretending to be forced for a while with a few Zhao Guo masters who were almost glowing with green eyes, Gong Yu was really happy to return to his small courtyard in the workshop.

The reason why these eight-bull crossbows were taken out is, of course, for a reason.

Although the last time I met Zhao Dan, I was sure that I would kill Zhao Dan directly face to face, but then I would definitely be killed on the spot, and I never regarded myself as a dead soldier.

So I really need a chance, a chance to approach Zhao Dan openly.

According to the order issued by Zhao Dan, if a craftsman can present a major invention, then Zhao Dan will personally confer the title and personally crown the hero.

Belly Zhen had already inquired clearly, and two of the Zhao State masters who had just talked to him had enjoyed such treatment.

As long as at that time, Belly Zhen hid some small organs in his hair, so that the poison in the mechanism could enter Zhao Dan's body unconsciously, and then wait for an hour or two to attack again, everything would be flawless.

When Zhao Dan's body was cold, Yu Zhen had already escaped from Handan City with the help of Qin's domestic response.

Thinking about it, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile.

Once the assassination of King Zhao is established, not to mention the position of the Mo family's giant, even the Mo family of Qin, who has been overwhelmed by the Legalists, should have a chance to turn over, right?

Belly Zhen walked into his house with a smile on his face, and suddenly his heart was startled and he stopped.

In the belly room, a middle-aged man sat there with a smile, looking at the belly with an extremely strange look.

"The master has been returning for a long time, but I have to wait."

ps: This eight-bull crossbow is a simple version, and that's how it is set.
