There are many tools that can throw stones far, such as slingshots and catapults.
However, these weapons have too high requirements and are not the ones Han Cheng wants to make for his second senior brother.
What he wanted to make for his second senior brother was a slingshot, something that was easy to carry, had few restrictions on use, and was quite powerful.
The power of a slingshot is no less than that of a bow and arrow, but its accuracy is not as good as that of a bow and arrow.
In his previous life, Han Cheng had seen some data about slingshots, which said that the longest distance a slingshot could be hit was close to 500 meters, which was farther than the longest distance of a bow and arrow.
Of course, this distance only exists like a legend, and few people can achieve it. However, with the slingshot in his hand, the second brother can shoot the stone bullet seventy or eighty meters and compete with the bow and arrow.
After getting the accurate information from Han Cheng, the second senior brother was beaming with joy. He didn't want to wait any longer and wanted to get the weapon that the Son of God mentioned immediately.
The eldest brother, junior brother Sha and others were very surprised to see the second brother, who was in high spirits and looked like a completely different person.
I don’t know what the Son of God did when he called the second senior brother into the house, but in such a short period of time, the second senior brother was reborn.
The second brother was a person who was not very good at keeping secrets, especially when it came to happy things. When asked by the eldest brother and others, he immediately told them what Han Cheng had just said about creating a new type of weapon.
After everyone understood what he meant, they were skeptical. After all, stones were different from feather arrows. They had been dealing with stones for a very long time and knew how difficult such things were. To want to throw a stone as far as an arrow, this... this was really unbelievable.
“Son of God…”
The eldest brother could no longer contain his excitement and came over to ask Han Chenggong. The others also pricked up their ears to listen.
After getting a definite answer from Han Cheng, the people, led by the eldest brother, couldn't help but cheer.
The appearance of bows and arrows has completely refreshed their cognition and greatly enhanced the overall strength of the Qingque tribe. Now that they have learned that there is a new weapon that can throw stones very far, how can they suppress the joy and excitement in their hearts?
Compared to bows and arrows, which they had never used before, more than half of the people preferred this weapon that could make the stone fly farther.
After all, they are more familiar with stones, and most people have a mentality of not wanting to touch unfamiliar things.
Wu, who had just learned the news, also rushed over and asked Han Cheng anxiously.
Han Cheng just remembered the matter of the slingshot last night, and he was busy looking after the charcoal early this morning. He had planned to tell Wu and his eldest senior brother about it after dinner, but after seeing the look on his second senior brother's face, he told him first, so Wu didn't know about it in advance.
After confirming the news, Wu quickly asked someone to call Shitou, who was squatting on the kang and staring at the pottery plate in a daze, to come and watch the Son of God make new weapons.
This guy Shitou understands these things faster than Wu, and records them better than Wu.
Up to now, Wu has seldom written.
The news of the slingshot was like a thousand-pound boulder thrown into the lake, which immediately caused the Qingque tribe to boil.
The eldest brother, the second brother, Shang and others looked at Han Cheng with great energy, pounding their chests to indicate that they would do whatever the Son of God ordered.
Bo Ye lifted up the animal skin, revealing his arms, indicating that he would follow the Son of God closely.
As the number one carpenter in the Qingque tribe, he was not the first to complete the bow and arrow. This stimulated Bo, so he tried his best to fight for it today.
Even Han Cheng was a little surprised by the momentum shown by everyone at this moment, who were ready to fight tigers in the mountains and capture dragons in the sea.
How could making a sling just cause such a big fuss?
As everyone was getting ready and looking forward to making a big move to develop this new type of weapon, Han Cheng began to give orders.
This lifted everyone's spirits and they felt that it was time to make a great effort.
However, Han Cheng's next words made everyone almost fall down, because he did not ask them to do work that required great strength, such as chopping trees or splitting stones, but asked people to bring some ropes.
The weaving of the slingshot is not complicated. Under Han Cheng's guidance, Bo put the ten ropes together in pairs to make five ropes.
Then these five ropes were weaved together into a thick rope, with a section left out at one end to make a rope loop, which would be used to put around the wrist to prevent the slingshot from flying out.
In the middle of the rope, there is a section of about ten centimeters that is not woven together.
Here, the five ropes were separated and used as the warp. Under Han Cheng's guidance, Bo used thinner ropes as the weft. After weaving them back and forth, he weaved out something like a net bag.
This net bag is used to hold stone bullets.
There is certainly more than one way to make a sling, but a sling made in this way is stronger than an ordinary sling since it is a whole piece after all.
Compared with bows and arrows, slingshots were much easier to make before the advent of ropes. In less than half a day, the slingshot was already formed under Bo's hands and appeared in front of the people of the Qingque tribe.
Looking at this thing that was so different from what they had imagined, the people of the Green Bird Tribe seemed a little quiet, which was very different from their previous appearance when they were ready to do a big fight.
They couldn't imagine how to use something like this to throw stones far away.
If these words were not said by the Son of God, but by someone else, they would have already left shaking their heads.
Faced with such a new weapon, Han Cheng, the Son of God, naturally stepped forward without hesitation.
He first put the loop deliberately left at one end of the slingshot around his wrist, then twisted it around and tied it on.
He picked out an egg-sized stone from the stones that Second Brother was carrying in the sling, put it into the net bag in the middle of the slingshot, folded the slingshot, and held the other end in his hand.
Then people were asked to stand far away, not only in front but also behind.
The slingshot is different from the bow and arrow. When using the bow and arrow, Han Cheng can ensure that the arrow shot out will go forward, but as for the slingshot, he really can't guarantee anything before he is familiar with it.
After there was no one within thirty meters, Han Dashenzi began his performance.
He suddenly exerted force with his right arm holding the slingshot, spun the slingshot around in his hand, and then released his hand.
With the help of this powerful inertia, the stone flew out.
