Chapter 111: I have the archery skills of Yang Yuji!
Actually, right? Zhiyao knows that she is a very selfish person, but that is reflected in major decisions. Her daily life carries the habits of her "past life". To put it bluntly, she knows how to respect people, even if that person is just a servant.
That's nothing. Unless modern people are extremely arrogant, who doesn't have basic courtesy?
Zhiyao would not deliberately embarrass anyone, and would not be punished if he met anyone who had minor troubles. He would basically help someone with a few words, which made him have an excellent reputation at home.
In fact, other nobles will not deliberately embarrass their servants. They are simply taught over and over again during their growth that servants are just human tools. They are often treated as tools. Who would deliberately make things difficult for them?
Most nobles have an indifferent attitude towards their servants. They usually don't lose their temper, but when they get angry, they may use "tools" to vent their anger.
Therefore, if contemporary people are not aristocrats, they cannot control their destiny in their own hands.
Even if you are a noble, if your strength is not strong enough, you will still be controlled by others.
The goal Zhiyao wants to achieve at this stage is very clear. To become a person who doesn’t need to look at other people’s eyes is to say that he will find ways to ensure that he continues to be strong and powerful. The small goal is to make the Zhi family the strongest among all the families in Jin. The medium goal is to represent Zhiyao.
Jin, the biggest goal must be to try to complete the unification.
It's hard to fall asleep when you're hungry, so Zhiyao got up and ate something before lying down, thinking about things and falling asleep.
The next day, it was still dark, and even though she didn't sleep enough, Zhiyao's biological clock still woke her up.
Once a person has a goal of progress, it is difficult to become lazy. No matter how sleepy Zhiyao is, he never has the habit of staying in bed. He yawned and asked Zheng Dan to help him put on his clothes. After washing himself, he went over to Zhishuo and Zhizhi to apply for bed, and then ate.
Grab something and go practice archery.
Many fellow travellers, they think it is pretentious to need help from others to even get dressed. But they have forgotten one thing, as long as they have some status and status, the style of clothes they wear is really not something they can just dress casually.
Take Zhiyao’s outfit as an example. A set of underwear is a necessity. If the climate is warm, she will wear at least one layer of silk inner garments. The outer garment is the most complicated style among them. If the climate is cold, she will wear several layers at once.
Layers, as long as there is no cotton, it certainly doesn’t have a thermal effect just by wearing a jacket. It doesn’t matter if you put on six or seven layers of clothes.
Among all styles, coats are the most troublesome to wear. The clothes must be symmetrical. The left front part should be tied towards the right armpit and the right part should be covered inside. The clothes should not be worn loosely, and the belt should be
Tie it smoothly.
Proper dress is something that every noble should pay attention to, otherwise it will be considered as insulting the guest. It is really not a funny thing for the guest to fall out on the spot and then turn into enemies.
With such complicated clothing, how long would it take even if I could wear it myself? Furthermore, I have to take care of the front, and there is no mirror with high enough clarity to take care of the back.
The so-called dressing up is very difficult, not to mention there are so many layers, plus it cannot be baggy, it is really difficult for a person to dress by himself!
When she doesn't go out at home, Zhiyao wears relatively simple clothes, and she also has special clothes when practicing her shooting skills.
Speaking of which, he has to change clothes for every occasion due to different needs. Sometimes it is normal to change clothes five or six times a day.
So, some of the servants who are responsible for dressing Zhiyao always need to carry a lot of things with them, including the clothes Zhiyao uses to change, and temporarily set up tents to block their sight, not to mention some things that are used for food and drink.
Cutlery.
If his soul traveled to a young man or an adult, it would definitely be difficult to adapt to such a life at first. With the mother's pregnancy and the process of growing up, everything will be natural in the growing life.
The ground merged into it.
"If nothing unexpected happens, Bolu will be here today, and he may be accompanied by Geng." Zhiyao skillfully opened her bow and shot an arrow. In the blink of an eye, an arrow was inserted into the bullseye of the target about ten meters away.
This is the case for some people. When they sleep, someone is watching nearby, and a large number of loyal guards are on duty a little further away. The moment they wake up and open their eyes, there are a large number of people surrounding them.
There are always a group of people following me everywhere.
This yard for archery practice belongs exclusively to Zhiyao, and is usually maintained by someone.
Among the people who came with Zhiyao in the early morning, there were indispensable Tai Hu, Yu Rang, Shi Yiguang, Zheng Dan, and the rest were some servants who were indispensable but looked like background walls.
Zigong, Zilu, Ran You, Zaiyu and others have different responsibilities from Taihu and Fulu. Most of the time, they don't have to follow Zhiyao closely and have their own things to complete.
Zi Lu and Zigong, who had food in the city, once they did not get a job, they actually stayed at home and busied themselves with their own affairs.
Zhiyao shoots arrows again and again, hitting the target accurately every time.
"I'm still young, and my strength is only the same for the time being. I can't use a bow with a higher tension." Zhiyao feels that she has the talent to be an expert archer. She can pick up any bow quickly. If the arrows are of good quality, they won't shoot to pieces.
.
How far a bow can shoot depends not on the bow string, but on the bow itself. Therefore, the material of the bow body is very important, and what kind of material determines its strength.
There are so many parts of an arrow. To ensure accuracy, of course you need to look at the shaft and sword feathers, while the arrow head is based on actual requirements.
Today's arrowheads are generally shovel-shaped and flat, and their penetration effect is very average.
Because no one has done research, even if there is a demand for armor-piercing, the arrowheads used for armor-piercing are not as good as Zhiyao's triangular arrowheads. I don't know when they will appear.
In fact, it is very good to use shovel-shaped arrowheads to deal with unarmored enemies. When shot into the body, there is no body penetration, and it can also have a secondary trauma effect when dealing with arrow wounds.
In order to reduce the difficulty of dealing with injuries after the arrow hits, it is best to use an arrowhead with an undercut.
To put it bluntly, it is best not to use triangular arrowheads casually. The main reason is that the penetrating power of triangular arrowheads is so good. If you shoot through the torso, you only need to break the arrow shaft and pull it out. It is a type that is easy to handle.
Zhiyao, who noticed early on that he had a talent for archery, had no intention of wasting his talent and practiced archery for at least an hour every day without having to do anything.
Of course, it is not the kind of continuous archery practice, otherwise your hands will really become useless.
No matter how good an archer's physical fitness is, if he uses a bow without any mechanical assistance, after shooting eighteen arrows in a row, the muscles and ligaments of his arm will almost reach their limit.
Under non-urgent circumstances, archers often need to shoot about fifteen arrows to give their arms time to rest before shooting again.
Because it is Zhiyao's exclusive archery yard, there will definitely be new weapons like crossbows in it, but he doesn't usually use crossbows.
There are several pairs of crossbows placed on the wooden racks in the yard, crossbows or imitation Qin crossbows of similar styles but with different ranges.
This imitation Qin crossbow is about the Qin State in the future. At present, the Qin State does not have such a weapon as a crossbow.
Zhiyao remembered the relevant articles she had read. It was mentioned that the crossbow first appeared in a family called Qin in Chu State. It was only used as an assassination tool and was not mass-produced.
According to historical records, the first country to mass-produce and install crossbows was the Qi State. They appeared in the Qi army commanded by Sun Bin and were used in the "Battle of Maling" to ambush the Wei army led by Pang Juan. It is recognized that the crossbows were made into
The best country is South Korea.
Although the crossbow was "invented" and mass-produced by Zhiyao, it used a crossbow style that was extremely easy to manufacture.
The current best crossbow has a range of about 180 meters, which is similar to the range of the four-stone bow. The advantage is that it does not need to consider the number of shots that human muscle tissue can withstand.
The imitation Qin crossbow seems to be larger than the crossbow, and Zhiyao directly used the crossbow.
Historically, the maximum range of the Qin Dynasty's Chuanzhang crossbow was one thing. The longest range of the Chuanzhang crossbow made by Zhishi was about 420 meters.
Now, Zhiyao is shooting arrows with a crossbow and an imitation Qin crossbow.
The firing rate of the crossbow is slower than that of the bow, and the arrows of the crossbow need to be crafted separately. It is a wrong use to use only crossbowmen. In fact, a mixed combination of archers and crossbowmen is most suitable.
"This thing is a sharp assassination weapon." Yu Rang commented after seeing Zhiyao using the crossbow to shoot a target a hundred meters away with perfect accuracy.
Zhiyao said: "Let me try."
Based on the fact that I have seen how Zhiyao used it, Yu Rang's movements are just a little slow when using the crossbow.
Yurang shot several times, but never hit the target.
The crossbow does not have a sight. If you are close, you can aim in the direction pointed by the arrow. If you are far, you can get a rough shooting range.
There is a device called "Wangshan" in Chuanzhang Nu. In order to do "Wangshan", many people know that there is such a theory as "science".
After repeated test firings, Yu Rang still insisted that the crossbow was a weapon for assassination, even though he missed all the shots. The main reason was of course that the range of the crossbow was farther than that of the bow.
"If it is miniaturized and can be taken out and shot, it will indeed be a weapon for assassinating people." Zhiyao thought to herself.
However, the production process needs to be continuously improved, and the materials must be selected appropriately, otherwise talking about miniaturization is just a rogue thing.
Zhiyao thought about what kind of army he should have more than once. Wearing heavy armor, holding a halberd in one hand and a shield in the other, and carrying a powerful crossbow, such an army would be quite good.
The army he imagined was not the military soldiers of Wei. The weapons of the military soldiers of Wei were spears and spears, and the halberds they used were those of the Three Kingdoms that could withstand the elite cavalry.
The misunderstanding here is that the Chu State actually had an army that used halberds, and they were called "Left and Right Guang".
Waiting and waiting until the end of the archery practice, Zhiyao still did not wait for Zhao Bolu's visit.
Zhiyao's patience was about to run out, and she thought she had made a mistake. The sun was about to set, but Zhao Bolu came.
Zhiyao went out to greet him, and was surprised that there was a carriage with female relatives coming with Zhao Bolu.
It's almost evening now. It's okay for Zhao Bolu to come by himself. What's the point of bringing Zhiyao's fiancée?
