Chapter 413 The Mystery of the Bow
Hongmane Yanglie lowered his head and studied for a long time. The bow Xiaobai's new drawing is really not that different from the bow he is using now, except that the tip of the bow has been slightly changed, and then the name changed?
"That's the difference between a recurve bow and a straight bow?" Hongmane Yanglie analyzed for a long time, but couldn't come to a conclusion, so he had to ask Xiaobai for advice.

"The difference is very big. The straight bow is the bow you use now." Xiaobai said while pointing to the bow that Hongmane Yanglie held in his hand and said: "This kind of bow is the simplest. It is simple to make and uses simple materials. It's also easy to use."

"Simple is simple, but it's easy to use." Hongmane Yanglie said while gently stroking the bow in his hand.

"Simplicity is good, but the disadvantages also follow." Xiaobai spread out his hands: "You have been practicing bows for so long, and you must know something about the bow you are using now. The bow in your hand is getting better and better. Strenuous, will consume your strength, and at the same time uneven force."

After hearing this, Hongmane Yanglie recalled it for a while, and then nodded, but he didn't care about this point. The primitive people are all powerful, and the current bow and arrow are nothing to them.

Xiaobai pointed to the recurve bow drawn on the ground and said: "A recurve bow, the tip of the bow is raised at both ends, when drawing the bow, the force is more even and less labor-saving, and it will allow you to aim at the enemy more conveniently."

"Eh? Really?!" Red Mane Yanglie was immediately surprised when he heard Xiaobai's words. He didn't expect that the effect would be different after a slight modification of the bow.

"Of course it is true. The advantage of straight-drawing the bow is that you can draw and shoot casually. The speed of the arrow is fast, and the shooting speed is also fast, but the accuracy is not high, and it takes more effort." Xiaobai commented very intuitively Dao: "The advantage of the recurve bow is that the force is evenly distributed, the stability is better, and the accuracy will also be improved."

Although he has not been in contact with bows and arrows for a long time, Hongmane Yanglie also knows the pros and cons of bows and arrows. Some of the words Xiaobai said are very awkward, such as stability and precision, which are relatively uncommon words for him. But I also understood what Xiaobai meant.

He looked down at the recurve bow drawn on the ground again. Compared with the straight-draw bow in his hand, this bow has its own advantages, but in general, the benefits of the recurve bow are greater than the straight-draw bow.

Still the same sentence, primitive people have great strength, and the strength used to draw the bow does not affect them at this stage. What really affects them is the problem of accuracy.

Whether you can hit the target is the most important thing. After all, bows and arrows are used to kill people.

If the recurve bow is really as good as Xiaobai said, then the weapons of the knights of the Red Maned Horse Tribe will usher in a new revision.

"You think the recurve bow is everything?" Xiao Bai couldn't help laughing again when he saw Hongmane Yanglie's shining eyes.

"What else?" Hongmane Yanglie looked up at Xiaobai in surprise.

"As I said, any kind of weapon is not simple. We must pay attention to technology and use our brains. Now you only see recurve bows and straight-draw bows. Smaller impact?" Xiaobai guided little by little.

After listening to Xiaobai's words, Hongmane Yanglie lowered his head in thought, and couldn't help but marvel. Indeed, these were things he had never thought about.

Compared with other tribal people, although he is smarter, his thinking mode is still the pragmatism of primitive people, and he will not change it at will, because it is unnecessary, and their experience comes from reality, not through brain simulation.

Xiaobai taught them how to make and use bows and arrows. They used them and practiced repeatedly until they mastered bows and arrows. They never thought about changing the shape or material of bows and arrows.

Xiaobai's words seemed to open a new door for him, and when he looked at the bow and arrow in his hand, Hongmane Yanglie already had a new idea.

In particular, there was an example earlier, isn't that the case with the huge bow of Murgan.

"In addition to these, you can also change the material." Xiaobai continued.

"Materials can also be changed?" Hongmane Yanglie raised his head and asked.

"Of course it can be changed. The material of animal bones is not always the same. Even the bones of a giant animal are not all equally hard. Teeth are generally harder than bones in other places." Xiaobai said calmly.

"Yes, yes, yes." Hongmane Yanglie nodded again and again. Did he know that the hardest part of a giant beast is usually its teeth.

"Did I say that the harder the bone is, the more suitable it is for bowing?" Xiao Bai raised his eyebrows and said.

"No, I never said that." Red Mane Yanglie followed up foolishly.

"Well, I didn't say that, why?" Xiaobai paused, as if the teacher was explaining the exam questions, and Hongmane Yanglie was relieved, and then said: "The harder the bow body is, the better it is." , the harder it is, the brittle it is, but the bowstring is not easy to draw, and the bow body needs toughness, so that it is easy to open the bow! So the harder the better, then the choice of material..."

"That's more." Hongmane Yanglie followed Xiaobai's words and exclaimed.

A brand-new door has finally been opened to Hongmane Yanglie. Different bow shapes, sizes, lengths, thicknesses, materials, and different combinations can produce different bows. These bows are good and bad, which kind of bow is really suitable for everyone. No one knows about the Rider Rider with a red mane, even Xiaobai can't tell, so they need to explore by themselves.

Even if Hongmane Yanglie spends his entire life in poverty, he still cannot fully understand everything about Gong.

"There are also arrows, aren't arrows different?" Hongmane Yanglie's body trembled slightly, he was very excited, as if his little friend got a new toy.

"Of course it's different. The material of the arrow is different, the shape of the arrow is different, and the tail of the arrow can also be pasted with feathers. There are many kinds, and the natural effect is also different." Xiaobai grinned, like a devil's smile.

"God of the horse, how could it be like this!" Hongmane Yanglie's eyes straightened, he didn't expect that there would be so many bows and arrows that were so simple in his mind.

"So, don't worry about the mutual market. When a secret emerges, it is no longer a secret. Don't worry that they will learn it, because our bows and arrows will always be stronger than theirs." Xiaobai patted Hongmane Yanglie on the shoulder, and continued Said: "What can really protect us is our ability to keep moving forward, not sticking to the rules. If you don't break the rules, then what you are using now is not spears, long knives, bows and arrows, but half-moon round knives, just like before."

Red Mane Yang Lie nodded repeatedly when he heard Xiaobai's words, now he is more convinced of Xiaobai, the boss is the boss, he thinks a lot.

"They want bows and arrows, so that's for them. Only by giving them can we have the motivation to move forward and produce more powerful weapons, but we can't give them for nothing. We have to take something back, such as this. "Xiaobai took out a spirit stone while speaking, and handed it to Hongmane Yanglie.

"What is this?" Hongmane Yanglie looked at the small sparkling stone in front of him and asked blankly.
