Chapter 10 Various Ballistas
There is another update at 8 o'clock in the evening. Thank you for your support for recommending monthly tickets, collection and rewards...
Lao Wang said contemptuously: "This is your own factory, and you are not allowed to offer the price? It's just that you have changed your left hand to your right hand?"
Wen Fei smiled bitterly when he heard this. He said that most of the business of this factory is his own. For example, although the weapons and armor made for his soldiers are all cost and labor costs, this still puts too much financial pressure on him, Master Wen’s great master!
"Don't have this look! How heavy is this one you make? Can the naughty kids wear it?" Wen Fei asked again.
"I definitely can't wear it anymore. After the armor is made, it will be at least 100 kilograms. It's just put it there as a decoration!"
Wen Fei said, "I don't want to be so heavy. I need to be able to wear it on my body. You can think of a way to see if there are any good materials. Well, I also need to have real defense..."
After giving a lot of instructions, Wen Fei patted his butt and was about to leave. However, Director Wang grabbed him and said mysteriously: "Boss, what you asked me to do last time has been done!"
Wen Feiqi said, "What?" He, the noble master of Wen Datian, forgot about things. He had told Director Wang about something, but he couldn't remember it all at once.
Director Wang said mysteriously: "Did you forget the Huihui Cannon you mentioned last time?"
Wen Fei was overjoyed: "You won't really create Huihui cannon? Lao Wang, you are so powerful!"
Director Wang smiled and said, "This kind of thing is very simple for modern craftsmanship. It's just the principle of leverage. I not only built the Huihua cannon, but also the scorpion crossbow!"
Wen Fei was even more happy, although he didn't know what the scorpion crossbow was. Huihui Cannon was only after reading a martial arts classic that the Mongols used this thing to find out that Xiangyang City was captured by the Mongolians.
However, now when it is impossible for the Northern Song Dynasty to produce gunpowder in large quantities, then we have to think of other ways. Needless to say, Hui Hui cannons were also a peak in the era of cold weapons, siege weapons.
Although Wen Fei felt that the Huihui Cannon was not used much. He guessed that the Jurchens would not hide in the city and asked him to attack the city.
Following Director Wang to the warehouse behind, Director Wang suddenly opened a rain-proof cloth in a corner.
What a joke, Wen Fei was shocked when he saw it, but it was not because of shock. But no matter how he looked at it, he felt that the cannon was too small. At most, it was only two meters high, which was completely different from the kind of weapon that fired a few hundred kilograms of stones in his imagination.
However, he immediately realized that if this small Hui cannon had practical uses, it would have been much more useful. At least it would not be used only on siege.
"This is a model." Director Wang smiled and said, "But it is really made according to proportions. The strength of iron is much higher than that of wood, and the stones emitted can be heavier."
"Well, this is a scorpion crossbow. How to say it, it doesn't feel very practical. This thing is fired with animal tendon twisting." Director Wang pointed to a crossbow that looked a bit similar to the bed crossbow on the next door and said, "This thing can be shot nearly 300 meters away according to records!"
Wen Fei took a deep breath. If he hadn't felt anything about this number before, but now, after personally experiencing the battlefield, he would know what this means.
This small crossbow cannon weighs only a few hundred kilograms. In fact, it is somewhat similar to the whirlwind cannon in Xixia. If Xixia is blocked on the Silk Road, it may be a technique learned from the Western Regions.
The Xixia people's whirlwind cannon can be directly carried by camels and fired stones the size of fists, which is enough to make people beat their heads and bloody, and their tendons and bones break.
The effective range of bows and arrows in the Northern Song Dynasty was about sixty or seventy meters, and it was difficult to shoot through armor even further. There were even large killing weapons such as the Divine Arm Crossbow, with a range of more than 340 steps, which is about five hundred meters. But in fact, this Divine Arm Crossbow is a foot-pedal crossbow.
In conjunction with another type of killing weapon in the Song Dynasty army, namely the bed crossbow. One or several bows were installed on the bed frame and the axle at the rear was twisted to mount the arrows. During the Battle of Chanyuan, if the bed crossbow had not shot the Liao general to death, I wonder what the war would have been like?
In short, the Song Dynasty was very rich. Because of the constant beating, it attached the most importance to the research of these new equipment. It can be said that the quality of equipment is the best among all dynasties.
In comparison, even if Wen Fei makes a bunch of guns to the Northern Song Dynasty, he can hardly gain any advantage in range. Modern guns have always pursued not the range, and the effective range of rifles is only seven or eight hundred meters, which is not as far away as World War II.
As for automatic rifles, they are only three or four hundred meters away. It can be said that unless Wen Fei can organize the frontal firepower of a regiment, it will almost have no effect in front of other people's brigades of cavalry. The Liao Kingdom is a country with millions of iron cavalry, and the Jurchens are more fierce than the Liao Kingdom.
Scorpion crossbows can shoot three hundred steps away, which is much simpler than bed crossbows. The "Wu Jing Zongyao" contains many types of bed crossbows from 2 to 4 bows. When the bed crossbow is tensile, the number of people with a small one is 5 to 7 people; the large one is like the "Bao Niu Crossbow", which requires more than 100 people.
As long as one person is used as a scorpion crossbow, the genius is paired with two people to help...
Thinking of this, Wen Fei, who turned into a war madman, had his eyes almost red. Grandma's, used a long-range catapult (return cannon), combined with a medium-range bed crossbow, a scorpion crossbow, a divine arm crossbow, and then a close-range bow and arrow. This formed a three-dimensional saturation strike that was far, middle and near, and covered.
Teach the Liao people or the Jurchens a lesson to let them know what contactless war is...
Thinking of this, Master Wen Da was so excited! Other time travelers could not do it even if they wanted to. It was nothing else. The ancient craftsmanship was very difficult to pass. However, Master Wen Da Da was supported by modern industry and could do it!
"In fact, these things are all ancient designs, and they are nothing great." Director Wang said: "If it were replaced with modern materials, it would be much more powerful."
Wen Fei didn't know much about these cold weapons, but it seemed that Director Wang was very polite and erotic when talking about these things. Thinking about this guy being the first to make swords and other things, he must be an enthusiast of these cold weapons...
Sure enough, when asked, Director Wang smiled and said, "Yes, the various cold weapons made by our factory have gradually become famous. Our factory is not the type of parallel products in batches, but they are all made in a single piece, but they are all called high-quality products!"
Wen Fei was too lazy to talk nonsense and said, "Then you design a crossbow for me that is easier to use than these. Don't ask me what's the use..." Wen Fei blocked everything first.
"The crossbows made with modern spring technology are naturally much more powerful. But this is a real weapon. Boss, are you using it to kill people or set fire?" Director Wang joked.
"Nonsense, do you go and kill people with the crossbows?" Wen Fei sneered: "I'll contact the business, hurry up and find someone to design the crossbows I want. Maybe there will be a big business, which will be enough for you to be busy for a while!"
When he heard that there was a big order business, Director Wang stopped tempting. Money was the biggest good thing. Could anyone really use a crossbow to steal the bank? It weighed hundreds of pounds.
After leaving the factory, Wen Fei naturally would not be in contact with business. He himself is a customer!
A thought suddenly arose in his mind, and he felt that he was too stupid. Why did he always think about getting some resources from the Northern Song Dynasty and selling them to the Modern Times to exchange for funds?
Of course, it is actually not bad to be able to get things from the Northern Song Dynasty to sell them to the modern era. However, in the Northern Song Dynasty, there were really not many that could be sold in large quantities in modern times. Don’t mention those unlucky furs, as Wen Fei was almost cheated!
Things like various gems have very little output in China. Most of them are not something that Wen Fei can’t do. One is that they are difficult to mine. The burial is too deep. Do you think there is any mining technology in the Northern Song Dynasty?
Furthermore, the territory of the Northern Song Dynasty was too small, and many gem mines were distributed in the Northern Song Dynasty at all. Do you think of jade? Do you know that Yunnan was still the territory of Dali Kingdom at this time. It seems that at this time, Duan Yu was the emperor of Dali Kingdom. That's right, it was Duan Yu in the Tianlong Ba Tribe.
Even if he couldn't reach his sphere of influence, he wanted to go to Myanmar to mine jade, which was like a dream. So Wen Fei was always worried about his capital chain.
But now, Master Wen Da Tian has a new idea. We can’t sell physical entities, we can do creativity. No, it’s selling culture.
Thinking of this, Wen Fei called Zhang Yu: "Fatty, where is your wife's cousin?"
Zhang Yu was stunned by Wen Fei's tongue twister-like statement, and immediately reacted and said contemptuously: "You are talking about Xiaoxiao, I tell you, it's too late, it's too late. At the beginning, you didn't chase him, but now they have a boyfriend, so you came to inquire..."
Wen Fei was ridiculous and joking, what a joke? Do I need to chase girls? Just say it, a beautiful woman can line up from the door of Shangfu’s mansion to the Suzaku Gate in Tokyo!
"Stop talking nonsense, I have serious things to ask her!" Wen Fei shouted.
"Serious things?" Zhang Yu said: "The problem of men and women is the most serious thing in the world. Let me tell you, your mother has been looking for me many times and has always asked me how your personal problems have been solved. I asked me to help you with your heart. I also said that you are not young and don't even have a girlfriend. You are so stupid..."
Just kidding, I, Master Wen, is about to become the son-in-law of the Song Dynasty and want to marry the most beautiful princess in the royal family of the Song Dynasty. He even said that Master Wen could not marry his wife? It's simply outrageous!
However, then Wen Fei was completely depressed!
