"Crossbow arrows are typically six or seven inches long and are powered by a mechanism. They are ten times faster and ten times more powerful than bows and arrows."
"However, the crossbow has a limited range. Once it exceeds the range, its power is greatly reduced."
"Old Wei, do you still remember the saying 'A spent crossbow cannot wear the silk of Lu'?"
"No one would say that if I changed the bow and arrow."
Then, Chen Wujiu picked up a bow and began to explain enthusiastically:
"The arrow can be three or four times longer than a crossbow bolt, and weigh more than five times as much."
"When shooting from a distance, the arrow is usually curved upwards, and the weight of the falling arrow alone can penetrate armor."
As he spoke, Chen Wujiu put on the arrow and shot it into the sky.
The arrow drew a perfect curve, easily flew a distance of one hundred and twenty steps, and shot down a battle flag of the provincial soldiers.
"Wow, you're such a good archer! No wonder you like hunting..."
"Hush!" Chen Wujiu said jokingly, "Don't shout about it. If others knew about my background, no one would play with me anymore."
Only then did Wei Wuyin realize that this good brother of more than ten years was actually so sinister.
No wonder every time he went hunting with others, he always won by a tiny margin...
It turns out that he was controlling the score!
This method of hiding one's own shortcomings is at least one-third of Qin Yuan's strength!
The exclamations of the palace soldiers merged with the cheers from the mountain.
I just don't know who shot the arrow.
Chen Wujiu calmly put down his bow and continued:
"A crossbow machine is invincible within fifty steps. Even if the crossbow is twice as powerful, it will only be effective within a hundred steps."
"Hehe, fortunately the Qin army's powerful crossbow has been lost. It is said that the Qin crossbow has a pulling force of twelve stones."
"These palace soldiers are only using eight-stone crossbows."
"If Xie Wanshi had a little more understanding, he wouldn't have let those crossbowmen die in vain."
"You lose." Wei Wuyin patted his shoulder, "Xie Wanshi is going to play a shooting game with you."
