There was no time to set up traps and ditches around the town of Soyo. It was closer to the hyena tribe than the Corinne River camp. Once discovered by the sneaking hyena tribe, it would not be good. Before a sufficient number of hard crossbows were made, Zhou
Ji Ping still thinks it’s better to stay away from the hyena tribe.
Rahn is a genius and very dedicated. When everyone else had finished eating and chatting by the campfire, he still used the light of the campfire to carefully assemble the hard crossbow. He learned and understood quickly, and he was still very short.
He had made enough cross braces and collected enough other raw materials in a short period of time. Now that it was getting dark, he just happened to take them and assemble them.
The other tribe members looked at Rahn with envy, with expressions of curiosity and reverence on their faces. This is better for the Damon people. Their status is earned entirely based on their ability, and no one showed any jealousy towards Rahn. Due to Zhou Jiping's application of special tactics, the tribe members
They also gradually changed their view of handicrafts as a lowly profession, and Rahn's status in the tribe also increased day by day.
Dedicated, dedicated, and a little bit talented, this is the secret to success of Damon's Rahn
Seeing that Larn had been busy assembling the hard crossbow, Zhou Jiping couldn't stay idle anymore and started to process the arrow shafts by himself while chatting. When the others saw this, they were too embarrassed to watch any more, and began to imitate Zhou Jiping's behavior.
, cut the arrow shafts, and bake the arrow shafts straight on the fire... Gradually, except for a few sentry posts arranged, everyone joined in the work of making arrow shafts.
It’s easy to get things done when there are many people! The progress of making hard crossbows is much faster than Zhou Jiping expected
By noon of the next day, all the fifteen rattan crossbows brought by the field platoon had been turned into hard crossbows driven by springs. Moreover, each crossbow was equipped with twenty crossbow arrows. Due to the initial handling of these crossbows,
Everyone knows Lahn, so Lahn's adjustment of these crossbows is quite smooth and efficient.
As soon as noon passed, crossbows were distributed to every field platoon soldier. Zhou Jiping particularly carefully explained the precautions for using such crossbows.
For example: you need to use a stringer (actually a hook) to tighten the string, otherwise you will injure your hand; do not leave the string on for a long time, otherwise the rattan arm will be damaged; do not put the string open, which will also damage the crossbow arm.
Do not put your fingers in front of the crossbow string at any time, otherwise it will be smashed; when shooting, you must master the strength of pulling the trigger and stabilize the crossbow body to hit the target.
In fact, there are many shortcomings of this kind of crossbow, but in this situation, Zhou Jiping has no choice. If it is not forced, who will use it to restrain firearms? This is already a huge risk. Fortunately, this
The structure and method of use of the crossbow are very simple. If it is ambushed at close range, its lethality is no worse than that of firearms. Especially when several crossbows are used against a target at the same time, the terrifying power is probably unparalleled by anyone.
willing to face
Here the soldiers were practicing their arrows enthusiastically, but over there Zhou Jiping was taking Larn and two other indigenous people who knew how to do some handicrafts, "hunting" thin iron sheets from the pile of scrapped cars and filing them with a file.
It becomes a dagger or short knife; a screw can be sharpened and turned into a crossbow arrow; a dismantled rusty rim can be turned into a simple oven by adding some charcoal fire...
Seeing that so many useful things could be removed from these scrap cars, Larn and others were so excited that they removed an old oil tank in Zhou Jiping and thought about how to make an earthen water heater, which they could happily use in the future.
While taking a shower, Bei Lu suddenly came to him in a hurry.
Beilu brought a piece of news: the vulture discovered that someone was coming. This news made Zhou Jiping quickly calm down from his nervous excitement.
Looking up, I saw the huge vulture, just like what Zhou Jiping had seen before. It swooped down rapidly for a while, then slowly climbed up. After climbing to a certain height, it swooped down from the southwest again.
Ji Ping roughly knew that this was a kind of "eagle language" used to communicate between the Cardosan people and eagles - it meant: Someone is coming from the southwest.
"How far is it?" Zhou Jiping didn't know the specific situation, so he could only ask Bei Lu.
"It took about two meals, but they came very quickly," Belu said, and suddenly pointed to the dilapidated car and added: "I wonder if they have this!"
The indigenous people do not have a clear concept of time. Zhou Jiping needs to calculate two meals by himself. The meals of the Damon people are relatively simple. The indigenous people finish eating while chatting. It takes about half an hour for one meal to be eaten twice.
It takes about an hour to cover a distance of about five kilometers at the speed of a normal person.
But if the other party has a car, it will be much worse. Even if the terrain on the grassland makes it difficult for the car to go fast, the speed can be easily maintained at 30 kilometers per hour. In this way, these visitors will arrive within ten minutes. Of course, this is normal.
Speed, if the passengers are willing to enjoy the feeling of shaking their bones, then that is another matter
Time is very tight and we need to act quickly! Especially since the other party is coming from the southwest, and that is the lair of hyenas. As for whether these people coming from there are hyenas or white people, no one can figure out. The only thing that is certain is:
