Chapter 587 Gambling, Weapon 2



Three months later, early in the morning, Chu Tian brought a group of apprentices and drove several carts out of Baigu City.

After a while, City Lord Yun also came with a smile, and left Baigu City with a group of sturdy men riding on exotic beasts, under the pretext of hunting in Dacang Mountain. They followed the road Chu Tian took out of the city and headed all the way to Dacang Mountain in the north.

The main range of Dacang Mountain stretches for billions of miles. Baigu City is located at the southern foot of the main range of Dacang Mountain. Several small mountain ranges derived from the main range of Dacang Mountain are like arms, gently wrapping up several alluvial plains.

From Baigu City to the north, after walking more than 200 miles, you will directly enter the mountainous area.

In the past few days, Chu Tian's apprentices have been practicing the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Furnace Method. Their muscles and bones have become strong and their steps are fast. The strange beasts pulling the carts are also moving very fast. After just over an hour, the convoy led by Chu Tian met up with City Lord Yun in a small basin in the mountains.

A small camp has been built in a small basin that is more than ten miles long and seven or eight miles wide. Several mighty falcons are standing on the gate, and more than a dozen ferocious hunting dogs are tied to the gate. A group of burly men in hunting clothes are coming in and out of the camp, looking like the sons of powerful people going into the mountains to hunt and preparing to stay there for a long time.

Chu Tian and others stopped outside the gate. After City Lord Yun called out, Yun Tian hurried out with a group of guards.

"Is that thing good?" Yuntian looked at Chu Tian impatiently and asked loudly.

Chu Tian waved his hand, and several of his apprentices lifted the oilcloth covering a cart and slowly moved down from the cart a large crossbow that Chu Tian had drawn on the blueprint three months ago.

This crossbow is shaped like a coffin and is pitch black all over. There are 360 ​​square holes on the smaller end of the crossbow. Through these holes, you can see a little bit of terrifying flashing cold light.

“Whether this thing is good or bad, we’ll know after we take it out and try it!” Chu Tian patted the crossbow, which was about 26 feet long and as thick as three people could hold together, and pointed to the end of the basin and said with a smile: “Go over there and set up some targets!”

"It's been prepared long ago!" Yun Tian waved his hand excitedly, and a dozen guards rushed over. Not long after, at the end of the basin about ten miles away from Chu Tian and others, more than a hundred targets wearing triple heavy armor were erected - inside the heavy armor, more than a hundred live wild boars with thick skin and flesh, struggling and screaming constantly, were tightly tied!

Chu Tian laughed "haha", he slapped the tail of the bed crossbow, a metal plate rose up, accompanied by the sound of "clicking" mechanism, a metal rod as thick as a bowl stretched out, and several rocker arms protruded from the metal rod, forming a rocker wheel with a diameter of about six feet.

"It's impossible for one person to string this thing. It requires the cooperation of many people, and they need to be very strong!" Chu Tian pointed at the bed crossbow and said in a deep voice: "Ten million pounds of strength, hehe..."

Yuntian nodded happily and shouted at the big men behind him who were more than ten feet tall, with shoulders almost as wide as their height and arms as thick as the waist of an ordinary person. Several big men came up, grabbed the wheel and exerted force at the same time, and heard the "click" sound, the wheel slowly turned, and the dull "dong dong" sound of the string being wound up came from the bed crossbow.

When the wheel was completely stuck, Chu Tian shouted loudly and slapped the middle of the bed crossbow. Four sharp metal stakes stretched out from both sides of the bed crossbow and pierced deeply into the ground. The wheel at the tail of the bed crossbow also stuck to the ground, forming an effective support for the bed crossbow.

Chu Tian slightly adjusted the angle of the bed crossbow, raising the head of the bed crossbow more than ten degrees. Then he grasped a lonely handle in the middle of the bed crossbow and pressed the handle down hard.

"Boom, boom, boom!" a series of thunder-like sounds erupted from the bed crossbow, which vibrated violently. The ground within a radius of seventy or eighty feet was shaking continuously. Large arrows forged with fine steel pierced through the air at a speed that could not be seen by the naked eye, making a "rumbling" sound and shooting forwards as fast as lightning.

Chu Tian raised the head of the bed crossbow to a limited angle, and the large crossbow arrow drew a slight arc and hit the targets ten miles away with extreme accuracy.

Three hundred and sixty arrows hit the targets covered with triple heavy armor hard. With terrible sounds, the targets and the live wild boars tied inside exploded abruptly. Flesh and blood flew everywhere, and blood mist splattered. A large number of shattered armor pieces were like shrapnel produced by the explosion, sweeping in all directions with a shrill whistle.

Three hundred and sixty arrows created a terrible metal storm ten miles away. Countless broken armor pieces and broken arrow shafts swept across an area of ​​two hundred feet in radius, smashing the nearby rocks and plants to pieces!

It is conceivable that if such a metal storm broke out on the battlefield, there would be no survivors within a hundred feet radius!

Such a wave of crossbow arrows can at least kill thousands of densely packed soldiers.

Yuntian was shaking with excitement, and the faces of several trusted generals behind him suddenly changed drastically - with their level of cultivation, it was impossible for them to survive such a barrage of arrows. With just one wave of crossbow arrows, they would definitely explode into a bloody mist like those wild boars!

This is just a bed crossbow, but it can exert such power!

What if there are 100 units? 1,000 units? Even 10,000 units?

Yuntian has no shortage of trusted warriors with strong brute force - his mother is from the southern border of the Da Cang Dynasty, a place that specializes in producing simple-minded and brute-force wilderness warriors. Yuntian's mother's clan has provided him with a large number of powerful warriors!

If ten thousand of these crossbows were to fire at the same time, even a mountain ahead would be completely flattened, right?

"This crossbow is extremely powerful. It is great for attacking or defending a city." Chu Tian patted the crossbow he had carefully forged over the past three months and said calmly, "It's just that it's just a dead object after all. It's not very flexible to use on the battlefield."

"As for fighting, even an outsider like me knows that mobility and lethality are both essential." Chu Tian pointed to several other large vehicles and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, this is another powerful weapon designed by our Hu Dali for your army. It is specially used to sweep away the enemy's army on the battlefield!"

"First, use the large crossbows to kill a large number of enemies and undermine their morale. Then use the iron pagodas and crooked horses... hehe, to break up their army." Chu Tian chuckled, and he personally lifted the oilcloth on the cart, revealing dozens of sets of extremely thick and strange armor shaped like an iron tower.

These armors are not only used by humans, but even mounts have special heavy vests prepared.

What is even more peculiar is that there are lock rings on the vests, and the carts are equipped with iron chains covered with barbs and sharp knives, which can connect these vests in a row.

Just by taking a look at the objects on the cart, Yuntian and City Lord Yun understood the meaning of the so-called Iron Pagoda and Crooked Horse.

Just imagine the scene of tens of thousands of heavy cavalrymen wearing such heavy armor and connected by iron chains roaring across the battlefield... Yun Tian and City Lord Yun took a breath of cold air at the same time, and then they looked at Chu Tian with even more fanatical eyes.
