"Ding, congratulations to the host for getting Zhang Shuye, the implanted identity, Zhendong veteran, eight-foot tall, god-like appearance, well-read, well versed in the art of war, ape-armed and good at shooting. He is quite famous among the Zhendong army."
"Ding, congratulations to the host for getting Li Mibi, implanting his identity, and trapping the governor of the Beidi branch."
Hiss! I actually intercepted this one!
Wang Yu's regard for him is no less important than that of Kunpeng!
In the process of Wang Yu's struggle for world hegemony, such a talent was far from even comparable to Demon Master Kunpeng.
Talents like this are a rare breed!
To put it bluntly, if this one could appear before Chen Pingping, one of the two deputy commanders used to check and balance Luowang Commander Zhao Gao might not necessarily be Chen Pingping.
In the snow, Liyang Zhaogou, Beiliang Fushuifang and Beimang Spider Web are known as the three major intelligence organizations in the world.
The spider web is a homonym for Zhu Jing. Li Mibi, a close minister of the Beimang Emperor, imitated Zhao Gou of the Liyang Dynasty and created it. In the web, there are two cocoons, six poles, three hundred dragons to catch, and eighty butterfly ladies to carry out infiltration and assassination.
Waiting for tasks.
Catching butterflies and dragonflies with a pole sounds poetic, but it is extremely bloody. Once they are stuck to the pole, their heads will fall to the ground. You can kill them first and then play, and kill several Yelu royal family and descendants of Murong for the Empress of Beimang.
Li Mibi, the creator of the spider web, was just a frustrated scholar from the Han tribe in East Vietnam twenty years ago. After entering Beimang, he turned into a dragon when encountering a storm and became the shadow prime minister of Beimang, regarded as the ninth in Beimang.
The shadow holds the festival order. Li Yishan once said that the death of Li Mibi is equivalent to killing the empress of Beimang with one eye and one arm.
This man was used to being alone and liked to hide and plot against others. Xu Fengnian almost took off the head of Tuoba Bodhisattva but failed because of him.
Moreover, this person is not a weak scholar with no power, but a true master of Xuanjing, who definitely has a place even among the ranks of masters.
Moreover, the snare and the spider web are so perfect for each other!
As the summoning was completed, memories about some of the characters summoned by the system began to appear in Wang Yu's mind. After a while, when Wang Yu digested this part of the memory, several more images of people appeared in his memory.
Or a name.
In addition to the five people drawn, Luo Yi's son Luo Cheng, Zhang Shuye's two sons, etc.
"Ding, the balance is completed, new system functions are unlocked, Shenbing Pavilion Level 2 and Mechanical Manufacturing Institute Level 1, please choose one of them."
Mechanism Institute, this is a new systemic function!
However, from his name, Wang Yu can also guess a rough idea. Even if he cannot completely join the technological stream, I am afraid he can start to join the technological stream.
"System, select the first level of the Machinery Manufacturing Institute."
"Ding, congratulations to the host for opening the system's new function mechanism."
An introduction about the Machinery Manufacturing Institute also appeared. As expected, the Machinery Manufacturing Institute was indeed biased towards science and technology.
The Mechanical Manufacturing Institute will randomly produce three drawings every month. The contents of these drawings are the manufacturing drawings of ordnance and armor weapons used by various Chinese and Western armies before the Qing Dynasty. Wang Yu can use summon points to purchase these drawings.
, you can currently only purchase one piece per month.
Fortunately, Wang Yu had already liberated the second database at this time, so that all relevant drawings from China and the West would appear.
Of course, this is also a very technical job. After all, all the drawings before the Qing Dynasty are likely to appear here. Although a considerable part of them are definitely useful, a large part of them are definitely useless.
The level of ordnance development in this world has reached a considerable scale in the cold weapon era.
This system function can be used as a supplement to Wang Yu, but it is difficult for Wang Yu to crush the enemy on the technology side.
After all, although there were firearms before the Qing Dynasty, the firearms before the Qing Dynasty were still immature and could not form an absolute advantage over cold weapons. Moreover, it was not necessary to think about it, even if firearms were really invented.
There is definitely something to say about the drawings, the probability of getting one and the price at that time.
Furthermore, firearms or thermal weapons are a system and do not require the manufacturing drawings of a single process. To put it simply, even if you are given the manufacturing drawings of a gun, you will not be taught how to use bullets.
Regarding the manufacturing method, can the value of this gun on the battlefield be comparable to that of a cold weapon?
This new function of the system may give hope for the emergence of hot weapons, but there is still a long way to go to truly reach this point.
Of course, in fact, before the new functions of this system appeared, there were already channels for obtaining these drawings. If those talents with relevant technologies were born, there would be a certain probability that they could bring some of the relevant knowledge with them.
When the new function of this system appeared, Wang Yu had already directly clicked on this system function, and three drawings appeared. The first two drawings made Wang Yu very disappointed, especially the second one, which was actually the earliest drawing of the ancient people.
The most humble catapult, this thing comes with a hammer, and the price is extremely cheap. It only has one summoning point.
Fortunately, the third drawing did not disappoint Wang Yu.
The Divine Arm Crossbow, the "King of War" of the Song Dynasty, was prohibited from being made privately by the government. It has been lost and cannot be copied to this day.
"History of the Song Dynasty" records that the inventor of the Divine Arm Bow was Li Hong, who presented the Divine Arm Bow through the eunuch Zhang Ruoshui. Song Shenzong ordered someone to test-shoot it, and it shot half an arrow deep into an elm tree 240 steps away.
However, Shen Kuo's "Mengxi Bi Tan" said that during the Xining period, a Dangxiang chief named Li Ding donated a "biased crossbow". The method of use is similar to the step crossbow during the Warring States period, with the foot stepping on it.
The part is similar to a stirrup. When you pull the bow with both hands, it can shoot through iron armor within three hundred steps. After imitation in the Song Dynasty, it was named "God's Arm Bow", "the most powerful weapon".
The military equipment of the Song Dynasty was very advanced. In Shen Kuo's words, "Hitting, stabbing, galloping, and shooting were all the skills of Yixia. The weapons and armor were extremely skillful in modern and ancient times." The divine arm bow was the best among them, with a long range and lethality.
Large and lighter than crossbows of the same power, it became the new favorite of the Song army as soon as it came out.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The emergence of the divine arm crossbow can already replace some of General Wang Yu's strong crossbows and ordinary crossbows.
Although some strong crossbows can break armor compared to ordinary bows, their cost and weight are problems. Therefore, the army only equips some strong crossbows, not all strong crossbows.
The God Arm Crossbow has excellent range and armor-breaking capabilities, but it has a lower weight. This is the biggest advantage of this crossbow.
The only weakness is probably that this crossbow can only be used as an infantry crossbow and cannot be used on horseback.
At first, the power standard of the God's Arm Bow was 2 stones and 3 buckets. The Song Army believed that in actual combat, the God's Arm Bow was fired at a relatively short distance, and generally did not need a range of two to three hundred steps, and could be made lighter.
Therefore, during the reign of Emperor Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty, the imperial court issued an edict to create a divine arm bow with a bow power of 1 stone and 4 tons. It was lighter and required much less strength from the crossbowman.
In the early years of Emperor Gaozong's reign in the Southern Song Dynasty, the more powerful "short pile divine arm bow" appeared. Usually there were 100 people equipped for every 500 crossbowmen, including 20 superior crossbowmen, who used 3 stones and 4 buckets of crossbows;
There are 20 medium crossbowmen, who use crossbows of 3 stones and 2 buckets, and 60 low-level crossbowmen, who also use 3 stone crossbows. The third-class ordinary divine arm bow also has a bow power of 2 stones and 4 buckets.
One stone in the Song Dynasty, some said it was ninety-two and a half kilograms, and some said it was one hundred and twenty kilograms. In the early Southern Song Dynasty, one kilogram was 625 grams. If calculated based on ninety-two and a half kilograms, it would be 57 kilograms or 125 pounds today.
Calculated based on one hundred and twenty kilograms, it is today’s 75 kilograms and 165 pounds. Converted to 6.4 grains per pound and 4.85 grains per pound, both are far lower than today’s minimum arrow standards.
A reasonable guess is that one stone weighs 120 kilograms, or 165 pounds, which is 82.5 pounds, or 9.7 grains per pound. Such a weight is very suitable for the needs of a war bow.
Even if one stone weighs 120 kilograms, the Godly Crossbow obviously has high quality requirements for soldiers' pulling power. Therefore, this is a foot-operated crossbow and can only be used as an infantry crossbow.
