People in Datang have been expelled from school

276 Chapter [-] Lu Mo was beaten

Give the bowstring that was first made to Li Ke for a try.

"Your rope is very strong, can it be used on a bow and arrow to pull the bow?"

Li Ke was skeptical about this, "But yours is much stronger than the tendon we usually use."

The bow can only be made from birch, one of the harder woods.

It can't be made of aluminum alloy.

The carpenters under Zhang Qi can make more than a dozen bows in one day.

Zhang Qi looked at the busy craftsman class under him, and said to Li Zheng: "I have made a lot of longbows, and this is the first time I have seen such a strange bow."

Li Zheng tried the weight of the bow. It wasn't too heavy and it was just right for him to hold in his hand.

When the spring rain fell, Li Zheng was sitting at home reading books on bows and arrows, and at the same time had a few words with Di Zhixun to learn about the situation in the court.

The civil servants and the military generals quarreled over the debit and credit bookkeeping method. On the issue of species diversity in the court, Li Shimin maintained it fairly well.

Duo sent all the built parts, and it took half a month to build these things.

Li Zheng looked at these parts and said, "The craftsmanship is really not good."

Du Hu smiled bitterly: "Those blacksmiths said that this thing is not easy to make, and it takes a lot of work."

Pick up an axle, it still has some burrs on it.

While disgusted, Li Zheng began to assemble the parts on the bow body of the compound bow.

After working hard for half an hour, with the help of Li Ke, it was exhausting to put the bowstring on the axle.

After assembling, Li Ke looked at the composite bow, "How strange, why are there three bowstrings?"

Li Zheng explained: "The secondary string is used to adjust the draw length."

Li Zheng held a compound bow in his hand, adjusted the axle, and tested his strength.

"To tell you the truth, His Royal Highness the King of Shu, in fact, I am also a good archer."

After Li Zheng finished speaking, he had adjusted the compound bow in his hand, nocking the arrow and drawing the bow.

He shot an arrow towards the target five hundred paces away.

The bowstring of the compound bow vibrates, and the string sound is very crisp.

The arrow pierced through the air, shot straight through the target, and hit the tree behind.

Li Ke hurried to check, and couldn't help but gasped.

The target was shot through, and it even penetrated three points on the tree behind.

Looking back at the bow in Li Zheng's hand, how many stone bows are they?

According to Li Zheng's physique, the three-stone bow should be the limit.

Such power is at least in the five stone bow.

"His Royal Highness, do you want to try?"

Li Ke took the compound bow with a worried face. No matter whether the bow is good or bad, you have to try it to know.

The first feeling when pulling out this bow is that it is easy, which is not like the feeling that those five-stone bows in the army should have.

Aiming at the target and shooting an arrow, the arrow still shot through the target, and half of the arrow body had already shot into the tree.

"What a strange feeling." Li Ke said to himself.

Examining the compound bow in his hand again, Li Ke said, "Let me try again."

Li Zheng put a barrel of arrows by Li Ke's side, "His Royal Highness the King of Shu may try it, but I also want to know the limit of this bow and the limit of the bowstring. I must know the quality first."

"Why can it be so accurate?"

I installed a shock absorber, and Li Zheng pointed to the device on the bow and said: "When an ordinary longbow shoots an arrow, the whole bow is vibrating, even the arrow is actually shaking when it is shot, so the hit rates are reduced.”

Li Ke shot another arrow, and unexpectedly found that the arrow was very fast and very accurate.

After more than ten times, Li Ke can already adjust the draw length by himself, and he is very proficient in using the whole compound bow.

"Change target!" Li Ke shouted.

A guard immediately ran over to change the target.

Li Zheng looked at the replaced target with pity on his face, "Look, it's all turned into a hornet's nest."

From day to night, the compound bowstring in Li Ke's hand finally broke.

Li Zheng asked while eating hot pot, "How many arrows?"

"630 arrows."

"It's much better than I thought." Li Zheng was eating the hot vegetables, "His Royal Highness, please sit down, I haven't eaten tonight."

After taking a sip of wine, Li Ke's mood was very complicated.

"Li Zheng..." Li Ke hesitated to speak.

"What happened to His Royal Highness the King of Shu?"

Li Ke gave up his thoughts again.

That night Li Ke couldn't sleep all night, looking at this compound bow late at night, he couldn't make a decision.

If such a bow and arrow can be used in the army, how much combat power can be improved against Datang's army.

But Li Zheng didn't seem to have such an idea at all.

Thinking of the way Li Zheng looked at this compound bow, it seemed that in Li Zheng's eyes, it was like a toy.

After reinstalling the bowstring, Li Ke raised his bow again, shooting arrows non-stop.

A grown man, using this compound bow, can easily pull out the power of a five-stone bow.

Although the guards in the village had no armor, they all had a compound bow.

Except for practicing archery on weekdays, Li Ke didn't let the guards take him with him.

Because the power of this kind of bow is too great, even the five stone bows in the army are not as powerful as this compound bow when the string is fully drawn.

Li Ke came to the conclusion that as long as the guards in the village were slightly trained to use compound bows, their bow and arrow accuracy would be comparable to those of the sharpshooters in the Guard Army.

As long as there is a compound bow, everyone is a sharpshooter.

There was a lot of rain in spring, and one day it was finally sunny. The aunts in the village hurriedly took out all the paper in the printing workshop, for fear that the paper would become damp.

Li Chengqian came with a group of people, followed by hundreds of big geese.

Li Zheng stepped forward and said, "His Royal Highness, you are too polite."

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Where is it, I would also like to thank you for your debit and credit bookkeeping method, which helped Mr. Li Gang out of the siege."

"Prince, you are welcome." Li Zheng was in a good mood looking at these white geese.

"Originally there were [-] of them. On the way here, I ate a few and escaped, and there are only [-] left." The official of the East Palace explained to Li Zheng.

"It's okay, it's good to have it." Li Zheng looked at these big geese and liked them more and more.

Let Daniel hand over the geese to the aunts in the village.

Li Zheng invited Li Chengqian and Cheng Chumo to sit down beside the horse pen.

The three sat side by side, enjoying a cup of hot tea.

Li Zheng looked at the bruise on Cheng Chumo's face, "Brother Chumo, did you get beaten up by your father again?"

"No." Cheng Chumo said with a straight face.

Li Chengqian smiled wryly, "It's really not because of General Cheng, but because of Cheng Chumo and Feng Zhidai. The fight in Chang'an wine shop was so lively that even the officers and soldiers of the Weifu were alarmed."

"Who is Feng Zhidai, who dares to fight us silently? Does he still want to hang out in Chang'an!" Li Zheng said.

Cheng Chumo gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, I've beaten him so hard that he can't get out of bed."

"Really?" Li Zheng took a sip of tea in embarrassment, "Brother Chu Mo is mighty."

Cheng Chumo nodded, "It's just a waste of winnings, and a few bucks for soup and medicine."
