Chapter 41 The Power of God and the Power of God

I don't know when there was a rell-like young man beside the king. He always wore dark tight scales and long hair tied behind his head. The limbs are slender but look extremely explosive. There is no sound when walking, and there is no sound even if they step on the grass. As a proton left by Fanyang in Chinas, he was disarmed. In fact, the young man was not armed when he came. He only carried a half-foot-long knife around his waist. The blade was extremely narrow and long, but it was gorgeously decorated. He smiled and said that this knife was just an accessory and was not lethal. Moreover, with so many famous generals again, is he still worried that he will be in trouble?

Such innocent and flattering words made the Chi Nasi warrior present's face hot, and the young man's expression was still so frivolous and untamed.

The smile at the corners of his mouth is always so impenetrable. In fact, as an assassin who is proficient in assassination, he really can't let others see through him! Whether it is the ink-colored scale armor on his body or the short knife around his waist, it is the equipment that he exerts his lethal power to the maximum. Such a thing that looks defenseless and lethality can reduce other people's defense against him and achieve a fatal blow.

Yin Zhe looked up at the sky, saw the blue purity, took a deep breath, and let the fragrance of the early spring mud pour into his chest. I have to admit that the sky in the far north is much purer than Fanyang. As an assassin who is born to hide in the dark, it is really a great luxury to be able to walk freely under such a sky.

"Ms. Yin, what kind of bow can such an arrow use to exert its power?" The king walking in the front stopped, raised the four-foot-long arrow in his hand, and pointed straight at Yin Zhe. The king's amber eyes followed the straight arrow shaft along the sharp arrowhead, and the dangerous arrowhead was even more murderous.

Yin Zhe smiled and said, "This kind of arrow does not need to be fired by the bow. The tension of the bow is far from exerting its power." He stepped forward, reached out to take the arrow, held the sharp arrowhead in front of him, turned the arrow shaft with his fingers, and the murderous arrowhead also turned. Several generals present couldn't help but feel numb - if they were pierced into the flesh by such arrows, I'm afraid life is better than death!

"The arrowhead of this arrow draws on the standard equipment of Fanyang Aoyu's long shooting. The total length is four feet and two, and the arrowhead is close to a puncture. The straight arrowhead is pure steel. The lower part of the arrowhead makes barbs and blood grooves, so that the arrows cannot be directly pulled out after being plunged into the meat, because the barb will tear off the whole meat around the wound, which is a beautiful Blood hole. The arrow can only push the whole arrow out of the body in the direction of the barb of the arrowhead, but at this time, the blood groove effect on the arrowhead is reflected - when the arrow penetrates through the body, the bleeding is very deadly! And... There is a groove here that can store venom and so on. If you add a little poisonous thing, the person who hit the arrow will definitely die!" He looked at the arrow in a clear tone of appreciation and praise, as if he could be proud to hold such an arrow.

"General Aratancang is a master of bows and arrows. You can feel the power of this arrow." With that, Yin Zhe walked to the general who twisted like a steel bar and handed over the arrow with both hands respectfully. Be careful, be careful, don't touch the arrows..."

Alatancang's deep eye socket sank into the shadow, but when he saw this arrow, his eyes suddenly lit up. What he was most familiar with in his life was the bow and arrow, but it was the first time he saw such an arrow, even more shocking than seeing the 'beetail arrow' provided to them by Shen Guo in Mengyang. Whether it is a long fine steel arrowhead, a barb, a blood tank, a venom tank, a four-foot-long arrow rod, a hard and straight arrow feather... This arrow exists completely for killing people, and the arrow is as heavy as a small javelin. To shoot such an arrow with a lethal speed, it takes at least 1,500 stones. There is no such tension bow on the grassland. Even if there is, the Alatan warehouse can't be opened.

"Tut, the general doesn't have to worry about what to use to launch this arrow, because this 'poison dragon arrow' is more valuable than the tool to launch it. Oh, the poisonous dragon arrow is the name of this kind of arrow... Such a fierce arrow must have a matching name..." Yin Zhe smiled gently and narrowed his eyes at General Alatancang.

He turned to face the king again and said, "Your Highness, let me show you the power of this arrow!"

The king frowned, nodded, and acquiesced in Yin Zhe's request.

They watched Yin Zhe return to the tent behind them and take out two pieces of steel armor and a half-finger-thick cooked cowhide - steel armor is the military supplies given to Chi Nasi by Fanyang's messenger this time, used to restore the equipment lost during Chi Nasi's southern expedition last year, ripe cowhide - several generals and kings couldn't help laughing, obviously from the tent wall It was cut off abruptly. He held steel armor and cowhide in his left hand, but held a heavy crossbow in his right hand, smiling as if he showed his favorite toy to the people around him.

"General Alatancang put these two pieces of steel armor and cowhide together and put them over there - um, about 450 steps!" Yin Zhe said with a smile.

"450 steps?" Alatan's pupils suddenly shrank, and this one has surpassed the shooting distance of a full 100 steps beyond the arrow riding arrows that are good at bows and arrows! He quickly put away the shock in his eyes and ran away from the camp with the steel armor and cowhide handed over by Yin Zhe.

Yin Zhe placed the vicious dragon arrow in the arrow groove of the heavy crossbow and pulled the string away with the machine bracket placed on the heavy crossbow. It seems that when this heavy crossbow is wound, it is impossible to rely on manpower alone. Fortunately, there is advanced machine bracket technology in the south. But when the crossbow string is tight, the whole crossbow machine makes a creaking sound, as if it were going to break the whole thing. He aimed roughly. After the Alatan warehouse placed the steel armor and cowhide, he suddenly pulled the trigger of the crossbow machine. The trembling sound of the crossbow string was sharp and harsh, and the whole poisonous dragon arrow was pushed out like a beam of black stream light--

The king feels that even if the arrows can fly there at such a long distance, they can't maintain strong enough penetration. Looking at the Alatan warehouse and the small target 450 steps away from afar, I couldn't help but doubt it. But the result is surprising!

' miso--', after the arrow penetrated into the steel armor, the penetration did not decrease at all. Unexpectedly, it flew back with two layers of steel armor and a layer of cooked cowhide for nearly 20 steps before stopping. If the steel armor hadn't scratched the turf and become an obstacle, I'm afraid it could have flown further.

Alatancang came back with the steel armor penetrated by arrows, and the expression on his face became more and more gloomy - this kind of crossbow machine with such a murderous arrow is terrible. It completely surpassed the four hundred and fifty-step distance of the falcon-riding warrior who is good at bows and arrows. Such a distance is simply unpreparable. Who would have thought that he would be shot at this distance?

The king's amber eyes were also full of surprise, and his vicissitudes seemed to rejuvenate. Yin Zhe still smiled indifferently. He took the steel armor from Alatancang's hand, looked at the traces of the poisonous dragon arrow penetrating the steel armor, and said, "The effect is unexpectedly good. Do you see it, king? The two layers of steel armor are cold forged steel built by Fanyang. Maybe the quality is not as good as the armor you ride under your command, but the two layers should be almost the same, right? Coupled with a layer of half-finger thick cooked cowhide, the arrow still wore half of the cowhide after penetrating the two layers of steel armor, but was bitten to death by the toughness of the cowhide. If it is shot on a person, the effect is better. With that, he pulled out the knife from his waist, separated the cowhide, and then pulled it out from the steel armor.

He checked the damage of the arrow in the sun, a long arrowhead, sharp barbed, and dark arrow pole. Everything was old, and there was almost no loss. The squinted eyes glanced at the generals and kings around them, looked at the complex and shocked look on their faces, and the smile on the corners of their mouths was deeper - it was indeed a pleasant thing to shock the barbarians! The magical machine manufacturing technology in the south is not something that the walnut head of these vulgar barbarians can figure out. A machine crossbow from design, drawing, calculation, manufacturing, experiment, and transformation... This is a series of complicated and sophisticated work, and the time and money spent are unimaginable, otherwise how could it have such power?

After a long time, the king opened his mouth and said, "How much does it cost to have 10,000 heavy crossbows and 150,000 arrows?" He didn't even hear what kind of trembling his voice contained!

"10,000? Please forgive me. We still can't take out 10,000 such heavy crossbows. This is just an experimental product. It took six years to make it from the manufacturing office of Emperor Fanyang... And it has a lot of defects. According to the amount requested by the king, 10,000 crossbows, 150,000 arrows, and an average of 15 arrows... The steel string support with heavy crossbows At present, when the crossbow string we study exerts the tension of 1,500 stones, it will be scrapped if it is used six times at most, so... it still needs time to improve the manufacturing process of the crossbow string!"

"How long will it take?" The king asked in a low voice, and his voice was faintly harsh.

"It takes an estimated four to five years to develop crossbow strings with longer endurance, from development to mass production!"

"Four to five years?" The king squeezed his lips tightly together, and this time coincided with the set plan in his heart! If you can equip an army with such a machine after the start of the large-scale war on the grassland, the advantage of Chi Naisi is too great! But what Chi Nasi wants is the whole grassland. Its enemies are the other five tribes. If they don't have an absolute advantage, how can they dare to start a war easily?

"And, Your Highness, please forgive me. Maybe 10,000 heavy crossbows and 150,000 poisonous dragon arrows, this cost may not be affordable by your department. Even our royal family may not be able to take this fee out easily..." Yin Zhe said with a smile, his fingers flexibly turned the poisonous dragon arrow into the wind, and narrow eyes narrowed to look at the king.

"How much do you want?"

"Well... Probably, this is just a rough number, maybe more... about a million plutonium gold~!" Yin Zhe said this number lightly.

"One million-dollar gold?" General Altancang almost lost his voice and shouted, "The red willow pole on our grassland can be cut straight and wrapped in iron sheet can also be used as arrows. The birch pole is bent and pulled on the cowhide string is a bow, which can still kill people!" Just such an arrow, such a machine, a handful of nearly 100 gold? Southerners, don't be too greedy... The wealth of the grassland can't stand your plunder like this..."

"Hahahaha--" Yin Zhe laughed brightly, and the whole blue sky was full of his laughter, indescribable self-confidence and arrogance, "General Alatankang, your thoughts are still too old! You still don't understand what such a machine manufacturing technology means! This is an epoch-making invention! This is the crystallization of human wisdom, and it is not even too much to call it a god-sling power!"

Yin Zhe took two steps, with his back to the king and General Alatancang, facing the highest snowy mountains in the north of the north, and his dark eyes were full of longing. "A hundred years ago, the steel smelting technology invented by the ancestors of the Jingxi Dynasty defeated the Jinluan Dynasty with steel weapons. The bronze weapons of the Jinluan Dynasty had no France competed with the steel weapons of the Jingxi army, which completely failed and was replaced by the Jingxi Dynasty. More than 500 years ago, the far north barbarians developed, and the terrible charge of the barbarian cavalry destroyed the most popular 'instant killing tricks' of the Jingxi Dynasty at that time. During the Mengyang Fanyang Dynasty, large array brigades and long warriors were derived to resist the large-scale cavalry impact of the barbarians, as well as various military array books. If the research of this kind of heavy crossbow is successful and mass-produced and put into the army, think about the power of 500 steps through two layers of steel armor and a layer of cooked cowhide, 10,000 such heavy crossbow machines take turns to shoot three rounds of arrows, even if your proud of the magnificent cavalry can't resist. Therefore, I dare to predict that the era of large-scale cavalry charge in the future is coming to an end, and it will be replaced by a new era of fighting with great power! General, do you still think this explanation is too expensive? Yin Zhe suddenly turned around, and the ink scales were illuminated by the continuous snowy mountains in the far north. His young face had unparalleled magic, which made people unable to look at.

He looked at the general's complicated eyes and continued, "Our machine bracket manufacturing technology will become more and more advanced. At that time, there will definitely be a machine bracket with a shooting distance of 700, 800 steps, or even a thousand steps. General, can you guard against shooting from a thousand steps away? The era of large-scale cavalry rushing close combat has come to an end. The truly visionary emperor will actively promote the arrival of the new era, instead of guarding the shaky old era. Chi Naisi's battlefield heavy cavalry emperor, it is difficult to maintain its glory in the future, general, this is the era! You can't resist the development of the times, either stand on the top of the times to lead it, or be eliminated by the times and become historical dust... If you are unwilling to accept this opportunity because the cost is too high, then we can even lend it to your department first, and it is not too late to calculate the cost after the big plan is completed. But if you think this kind of heavy crossbow is opportunistic and weakens the strategic position of the rayan, then please forgive me for saying frankly, general, it's better for you to take off your armor and be a mortal..."

After saying that, he ignored the faint anger on Alan Cang's face, turned to the king, bowed down and said, "Your Highness, this is also for you! One million gold and an era, which is more valuable? The times are priceless, but we human beings have such technology, the smartest minds, and skillful craftsmen... We can promote the development of the times! In the future, the person who stands at the top of history will be the first to accept this change! What if this kind of machine is introduced to Emperor Lin Xi of Mengyang? Introduced to other tribes? Can your hegemony be preserved? This is the reality you have to accept! At the same time, introducing such a machine technology to you is also to express my sincerity of Fanyang... We can take out such technology, provide funds, and provide everything we can take out. There is nothing else to push His Royal Highness to the throne of the world!"

"Good! That's enough! One million gold is nothing! I barbarian warriors can fight and kill people, but why do they return every time they go to Mengyang in the south? It's just that the equipment is not good! Up to now, I still remember that my cavalry were blocked from the Mengyang Emperor's capital by several shield walls! If my barbarians have advanced machine manufacturing technology, what are they afraid of? What else are you worried about? The king looked up at the sky and said fiercely. His amber eyes were full of determination, "Yin Zhe, as you said, Fanyang will improve this machine as soon as possible. I will give you four years. I want 10,000 such a heavy crossbow and 150,000 poisonous dragon arrows, 100-ylon gold, and pay in full!"

Yin Zhe's squinting eyes suddenly opened, and his pure black eyes were exposed for the first time. They were pure and black without any vitality. His sharp lips twisted with a smile and said, "I am proud of the wise decision of His Royal Highness. I am glad that Fanyang can have an ally like the king!" I can already see the arrival of the era of infinite glory in the future! Congratulations to the king!"

The king did not listen to his compliments. He looked at the bracket in his hand, stroked its oily and exquisite bracket and sharp steel strings, and looked at the vicious poisonous dragon and arrow. What kind of shock would this murderous equipment bring when it appeared on the grassland for the first time on a large scale? I can't tell. He and the big shaman are committed to promoting the hegemony of Chi Naisi, but the big shaman chose to pursue the illusory power of the gods, relying on such an unpredictable existence as the magician and prophet... It's really unreliable. At least in his heart, he feels that this kind of real, visible and touching thing is the most at ease! The great shaman chose the 'power of God'. He chose the product of the crystallization of human wisdom, as Yin Zhegang said about the power of God'...

No regrets! The king's eyes became firm and comfortable again. The annual output value of the grassland is less than 300,000 yi. Just this 10,000 pieces of machine will invest more than three years of output value of the grassland. Let history judge whether it is worth it or not.

"Your Highness, I, Fanyang, do my best to help my allies recover their strength. Please make a list of the equipment lost by Chinasi in the Southern Expedition last year, so that I can also ask Mr. Miaobai, the imperial capital."

"It's time for you. I'll send someone to give you something when I get back." The king said hoarsely.

"There is one more thing." Yin Zhe's eyes glowed coldly and said coldly, "There is another team of southerners on the grassland. The purpose is unknown. I hope the king will beware!"

The king's eyes also became severe in an instant. He looked at General Alatancang and said coldly, "Notify Zaerhua to strictly investigate this matter!"
