With Xuan's help, they were able to carve it much faster than if he had carved it himself with a knife. However, the crossbow was more complicated to make than the cart and simple crane, so it still took them two days to carve out all the parts.
After assembling the model, Meng Yuqing gently turned the handle at the back, pulled the string, and placed a small branch into the shape of a toothpick on the crossbow.
Then press the trigger with your finger.
The toothpick shot out instantly and pierced through two leaves that they had deliberately hung one meter away.
Xuan walked over to the leaves and picked up the toothpick. He looked at the palm-sized crossbow model and said in surprise, "It went straight through two leaves from such a distance?"
Although leaves are not hard objects, Meng Yuqing was a little surprised to see the "little toothpick" shot out from one meter away and penetrate two leaves in succession.
He looked at the information about the crossbow in detail and found that the one he made was called a three-bow crossbow. It was said to be the most powerful long-range weapon before the advent of artillery.
Even if the original version was moved to this world and used, it would be enough to pose a threat to large beasts and orcs, not to mention that they are also planning to use the enhanced materials from this world to make it.
Meng Yuqing felt like he had created something big.
After seeing the power of the small crossbow model, Xuan became more interested in the other two weapons. If this weapon was made according to normal size, it would probably be able to kill a large beast or orc from a long distance.
If the enemies were dense enough, I could probably shoot several of them with one arrow, just like I shot through these two leaves.
After making the bed crossbow, the next step is to make the Yaksha Raiment and the Catapult.
The Yaksha Arena was relatively easy to make. The two of them made a small model in just two hours, and Meng Yuqing demonstrated to him how to use it.
After reading it, Xuan nodded. "It's pretty much what I thought. However, if someone really comes to attack us, we will do our best to keep them outside the moat. If they get close to the city wall and we need to use this kind of weapon, you will be in danger."
Xuan looked at Meng Yuqing, "These powerful weapons only require a sub-beast to operate. If you are forced to use this Yaksha Fighting, it must be a very urgent situation."
Meng Yuqing held up his face and looked at Xuan, "Yes, if you find that this situation is about to come, I think you should just focus on dealing with the particularly powerful ones, and let the other small fry come over and let us deal with them. Besides, there is still a powerful one that has not been made yet. Once the catapult is made, it will be able to alleviate this situation very well."
The Yaksha Arena was originally created by Meng Yuqing as the last line of defense, or to deal with Lao Liu who wanted to bypass the front battlefield and climb over the wall to launch a sneak attack.
When the model of the catapult was made, Xuan was stunned.
The range of the catapult is not as far as the crossbow, but this thing does not require specially made arrows, it uses stones!
Especially when Meng Yuqing wrapped the stone with a layer of hay and leaves, poured oil on it and placed it on the catapult, lit it on fire before throwing it out, and launched the stone out before the fire burned the catapult.
Xuan's hairs stood on end.
If this were thrown into a group of attacking wild beasts or enemies.
Hiss~ It’s so scary.
After the two of them made the small models of the three weapons, they took them to find Xia.
Xia was discussing something with Lan and Li.
When they saw these three weapons, they had the same reaction as Xuan.
This is to keep all enemies outside the tribe and prevent them from getting close.
"Xia, I want to go make these things with Xuan and Yuqing. Why don't you let someone else take care of the moving team for a while?" Li touched the three weapon models and couldn't let go of them.
The last time a simple crane was made, Li did not participate because at that time the orcs had to carry the stones on their backs, and there were not enough people, so he was too busy.
He had never even seen the crane model before Xuan took it back.
So stingy!
Now that the carts have been made, the transportation routes have been determined, and the road surface has been leveled, the overall transportation speed has increased, and many orcs have been freed.
He also wanted to make these weapons, especially to touch these models more.
Xia pressed his temple. He knew what Li was thinking. After the moving team got on track, there was no need for Li to keep an eye on them.
He is considered to be one of the more leisurely ones among the current leaders. Apart from moving stones every day, he actually has nothing to do.
"Find someone to watch over the transport team for you, and then go help make weapons." Xia put down his hand as if to agree with Li's words.
Then he turned to look at Lan, "What about you? Do you want to make weapons too?"
Lan was a little tempted, but after thinking it over, he refused. "Forget it. After all, this is a special time. The hunting team itself is dangerous. It's better for me to keep an eye on it. Hu is still young now."
After hearing Lan say this, Xia didn't try to persuade him much.
Because these weapon sub-beasts can also be used, Shu asked his partner to come over and help make the weapons.
Shu is responsible for teaching the little orcs, and Tongsui often goes along to take care of them, including those who have lost their parents, whom he often visits.
He often followed and listened when Shu was teaching the little orcs hunting knowledge.
Sometimes he would even spar with those little orcs who were about five or six years old. Some seven-year-old little orcs might not be able to gain the upper hand against him even if they transformed into beast form.
If the sub-beasts in the tribe want to compare their fighting strength.
