Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 37 King Yu and the Golden Cudgel

"Fifth brother, this thing looks good. It's longer and better than your six-leaf hammer. I think this thing is good." Luo Si picked and picked, and finally picked one in a corner. Odd guy out.

Luo Feng looked at it at a glance, but what he saw was like a hand cast in front of an iron rod.

This hand is clenched into a fist, but the middle finger and index finger are brought together to form a sword and stretched forward.

And he held a pointed pen in his hand.

"What weapon is this?"

Luo Feng couldn't help being stunned, he had never seen such a strange guy.

Lao Menzi had a hundred dollars in his pocket, and he was in a good mood at this time, and his attitude was much more enthusiastic than before.

"This thing is even more particular. This thing is not from outside, it belongs to our Han family, but few people use it. You see, the two fingers stretched forward are called fingers, and the five fingers stretched out are called palms. Hold them tightly. A fist is called a fist, and a double-headed iron nail held horizontally in the fist is called a horizontal, and the combination of these is called holding and weighing."

Luo Lao Si was stunned, "Fingering in the palm of your hand? Is there such a name?"

"It's the homonym that controls the balance, and it's about the sanctity of Dayu, who wiped out harm for the people in ancient times, so the name of this weapon is also called Yu Wangluo."

Lao is the same as grasping, so you can almost imagine the characteristics of this weapon from the sound.

"Weapons like Lao have a special feature. Generally, weapons that have the shape of human hands or animal claws are called Lao. Generally, there are three types of long, short, and soft weapons, and this King Yu Lao is a common one. .”

"Generally speaking, there are many restrictions on the use of these strange weapons, and ordinary people can't use them. For example, this Yuwang Lao, some people call it Yuwang Lance, but it has nothing to do with lance, but Some similarities with 槊 are that the person who uses it is powerful."

Lao Menzi is indeed a person who has stayed in Jiazhanku for many years, and he is also very eloquent when talking about this unpopular weapon.

"This hammer is very heavy. It's seven feet long. Although it's not as good as the Zhangba horse lance, it's still heavy. It's longer and heavier than your leaf hammer."

"Brother, how do you use this thing? Is it punching and pointing?" Luo Lao Si asked, his strength is not small. Speaking of which, the strength of the Luo family is not small. related.

Holding a seven-foot Yu Wangluo in his hand is as easy as holding a wooden gun.

"The finger part of the sword is actually like the tip of a gun, which can be stabbed or picked. The two ends of the stylus are similar to the twigs of a halberd, which can be blocked, cut, lifted and stabbed. The fist part holding the pen is equivalent to The hammer head can be smashed, so speaking, this King Yu Luo is actually a long soldier dedicated to the powerful."

The fourth waved it a few times, "I want this one, Yu Wangluo, this guy is famous and domineering, such a guy is in line with my identity."

Although Luo Feng thinks that Lao Si's choice of this weapon is a bit too flamboyant, after all, this weapon is a set, spear, halberd, and warhammer in one, so at least he must know those weapons first, but Luo Lao Si In the past, I was just playing tricks, except for brute force, how can I do that.

But since he was willing, Luo Feng didn't bother to take care of it. Anyway, the weapon was also in stock in the yamen, and he didn't need to pay for it.

"Xiao Liu, you can choose the same."

"Fifth brother, help me choose one."

Xiao Liu looked left and right, but he was a little confused, he didn't know what to choose.

Luo Feng looked at his younger brother, he was only 12 years old this year, but he was very strong, even bigger than him.However, he also has never learned any martial arts, and his only characteristic is his strength.

After thinking about it, Luo Feng chose one for Xiao Liu.

"What do you think of this?"

What he picked out for Xiao Liu was an iron rod, the two ends of the rod were made of copper with eight edges, and each of the two ends had three fine copper hoops.The stick is only five feet long, but it is heavy and has no edge in the middle.

"This is called an octagonal-copper-gold cudgel. It is suitable for strong people. The ribs and the hoop are very lethal. When the stick falls, you will be disabled even if you don't die. Your tendons and bones will be damaged." The old man said beside him.

"Xiao Liu, try it." Luo Feng handed him the stick.

Black in the middle, dark red at both ends.

Xiao Liu took the stick and waved it casually a few times, "It's pretty good."

"Like it?"

"like."

"Then accept it, this eight-ling mixed copper golden cudgel will be your weapon from now on."

Luo Feng himself chose the Morning Star Six-leaf Hammer, Luo Si picked Yu Wangluo, and Xiao Liu picked the octagonal mixed copper golden cudgel.

Several other people also quickly picked their own guys.

The third brother-in-law Scarface Zhao Gui is a hunter, so he finally picked a good bow from the Jiazhan library, and the fourth brother-in-law Zhou Xin used to have a harpoon for fishing, so he finally chose a triangular iron fork with a seven-foot handle. It weighs about five catties. The center of the three-pronged fork protrudes three inches, and there is a melon hammer at the end.

Seeing that he chose the triangular hairpin, Menzi also found two short forks from a box.

"This pair of short forks can be used for self-defense in close combat, so I'll give them to you together."

Zhou Xin was overjoyed when he got the three forks, and thanked him repeatedly.

"Du Da, Fu San, what do you two like?"

Du Da and Fu San were injured by the whip last time. They were seriously injured, but they recovered after a few days of rest. They begged Luo Feng for a long time to come and help, and finally Luo Feng agreed.

He is still not sure that Du Da is the later King of the Jianghuai River, Du Fuwei, but after all, he has the same name and surname, and this kid is resolute, so Luo Feng finally accepted it.

Du Da finally chose a knife.

A ring-headed broadsword.

The knife is three feet five inches long, the handle is seven inches long, and there is a ring at the back. It is two feet eight inches long, four inches wide, and four points behind it. There are seven rings, and the rings are golden, so this knife is also called Jinsiqi. Huan Da Dao.

The saber was very heavy and very domineering at first glance. Luo Feng was also a little surprised when he saw that he finally picked this saber.

Fusan was rather well-behaved, he directly picked up a spear.

In fact, spears are not well-known in this era. Real generals either use spears or lances. Guns are rarely used because guns do not have a strong armor-piercing effect.

On the contrary, infantry use more guns, but most infantry also use spears.

But since Fu San chose it himself, Luo Feng didn't interfere.

After everyone's choice, Luo Feng said a few good words to Menzi, and finally one of them got another horizontal knife.The horizontal knife is a standard weapon in the Sui army, and it is also the main equipment. Almost everyone has one. The shape of the knife is inherited from the Han Huan Shou knife, and the handle of the horizontal knife they hold also has a ring head.

The blade is very straight and narrow, especially the tip of this horizontal knife is very distinctive, unlike ordinary knives with a curved tip, its tip is a straight cut sharp corner, so this straight horizontal knife In fact, it looks like a sharp point, but it only has a single edge.

The knife is only more than two feet long, and it is also very light, so it is easy to carry.

Originally, Luo Feng wanted to be equipped with a bow and two pots of arrows, but there were not many bows in the arsenal, and the control was stricter. Besides, no one knew how to use a bow except the third brother-in-law. Luo Feng followed Uncle Wang I learned a little bit of fur, and I haven't learned the essence yet, so I forget it in the end.

　Many readers say that the weapons in the book are relatively light. In fact, I wrote these with reference to many materials, and they are more realistic. Many ancient weapons unearthed now are indeed not exaggeratedly heavy.

　　A weapon is for combat, not a test of strength, and the weight it can carry does not mean that this weight is the optimal solution for a weapon.

　　It's like you can carry [-] catties, but you don't use a [-] catties kitchen knife to chop vegetables, because it's unnecessary.
