The First-Class Medical Princess Chapter 90: Crossbow Team

In the next few days, after handing over the previous knowledge to Ying Yiying and the second class, Su Yunchu wandered around in Lan Ying's school grounds because she had nothing to do. There was one thing she had to learn - archery.

It's unbelievable to say that Su Yunchu didn't learn anything about ancient weapons before he came to this world. Therefore, archery only started to learn when he came to the barracks these few days.

Therefore, when Su Yunchu was holding a bow and arrow at this time, when his posture was slightly awkward and seemed to be incorrect, when he shot towards the target twenty steps away, the arrow fell to the ground with a thump before reaching ten steps.

The microcosmic people next to him were stunned. It turned out that the omnipotent military strategist could not shoot arrows. However, no one dared to make a sound. Therefore, in the quiet school grounds, when everyone's eyes were on Su Yunchu again When the arrow landed, the sound of the arrow hitting the ground was particularly abrupt.

Su Yunchu looked at the arrow that fell on the ground within ten steps of him, frowned and pondered for a while, then took out an arrow feather from the quiver on the side, put it on the bow and arrow, Adjusting her posture, she thought in her heart, with the posture of holding a gun, and regarded the bow and arrow in her hand as her favorite crossbow, and tried again, but, even though she thought so in her heart, the arrow feathers fired again It still fell to the ground.

She practiced for half a day without hitting a target that was less than 20 steps away. Su Yunchu couldn't help doubting her ability.

In her previous life, she had never learned ancient weapons at all. The daggers that are almost necessary for modern special forces were always the weapons she was best at. Crossbows, in addition, because there is an older brother in the military compound at home who likes crossbows to an almost crazy degree, under the influence of her ears and eyes, she has studied crossbows at least seventy-eight percent, but arrows and crossbows are different after all, she Using a crossbow can almost be said to be handy, but this bow and arrow, whether it is exerting force or pulling the bow, cannot be mastered so quickly.

However, whether it is a bow or a crossbow, the knowledge of mechanics is actually used.

Murong Yuan only stood not far away, looking at the people who had practiced for half a day but still didn't achieve much. At the beginning, he would comfort Su Yunchu a few times, saying that she was a beginner and she couldn't learn well at the beginning This is also reasonable, but Su Yunchu is a stubborn person after all, and his requirements for himself are always higher than those of others. Although Murong Yuan guided himself at the beginning, more people still have to Relying on her practice and comprehension, therefore, this practice is half a day, but the effect is not great.

Su Yunchu will not be stubborn enough to be rigid. After practicing like this, if she still has no problems, it means that she has not mastered the trick yet.

Squatting on the ground, Su Yunchu held the bow in his hand and studied it for a while, then suddenly turned his head to look at Murong Yuan behind him, "Huaiqing, show me a few more times."

Murong Yuan sighed slightly in his heart, feeling a little helpless for Su Yunchu's uncompromising temperament, but his eyes were more indulgent and pampering, walked to Su Yunchu's side, picked up another bow, and put it on The arrow, almost played back in slow motion, is showing Su Yunchu how to shoot an arrow that hits the bull's-eye all the time.

"Ah Chu is watching!" Finally, the voice fell, and the arrow feather flew out, hitting the red heart of the target a hundred steps away.

After that, Murong Yuan took the arrow and drew the bow again, but in his mouth, he explained in detail with Su Yunchu how to shoot a qualified arrow feather, "Archery pays attention to the placement of the arrow feather, the stretch of the bowstring, and how to draw the bow." The way of stringing, Ah Chu, look carefully, for different archery targets, the direction of the arrow is different, and the position of the comparison is also different. Twenty steps, connect the eyes, the bull's-eye and the top of the bow handle in a line, and pull the arrow with three fingers. String, fast release, arrow out, hit the target!"

Speaking, Murong Yuan shot another arrow, following his voice, another beautiful arrow.

Afterwards, Murong Yuan showed Su Yunchu the sword skills of 30 steps, 40 steps... 100 steps again.

In the past, Su Yunchu was a little eager for success, and he was very proficient in the use of crossbows. He originally thought that with his own ability, he could at least quickly learn this traditional bow and arrow, but he didn't want to. Overestimate yourself.

While carefully observing Murong Yuan's bow and arrow, he slowly comprehended Murong Yuan's explanation, and Su Yunchu also understood a little.

What Murong Yuan said contains a lot of knowledge of mechanics. In the process of shooting strings and shooting arrows, any skilled archer will naturally use these knowledge of mechanics.

After explaining several arrows in a row, Murong Yuan put down the bow in his hand, but looked at Su Yunchu who was still thinking to himself, "Ah Chu, how is it?"

Su Yunchu did not answer Murong Yuan's words, but was still thinking quietly about what he had seen and heard before and what Murong Yuan said.

Murong Yuan originally thought she couldn't digest it, so he said a few words of comfort, "Ah Chu, don't be impatient, learn slowly and practice more. With Ah Chu's intelligence, he will definitely learn."

Su Yunchu turned to look at him, with a smile on his face, but picked up the bow and arrow in his hand again, nocked the arrow and pulled the string again, adjusted his posture and the position of the arrow feathers on the bow and arrow, and found the correct position. Dot the line, shoot an arrow, and hit the target twenty steps away.

Although it deviates from Jianxin a little, but compared with the situation where the arrow landed not long ago, this reversal is too big.

Then, under Murong Yuan's astonished eyes, Su Yunchu once again set his arrow and pulled the string, and shot it out, hitting the target thirty steps away. He did this again and again, as if he was addicted to playing, Su Yunchu was already able to shoot. Hit the target eighty paces away.

Murong Yuan couldn't believe Su Yunchu's learning ability. Not long ago, he couldn't shoot an arrow. Now, it's only been a while...

Even Yan Yishan, who rushed over from behind and wanted to make fun of Su Yunchu, was too surprised to open his mouth. What's going on? He just left for a while, and Su Yunchu made a huge reversal? Is she too smart or Murong Yuan is too good at teaching?

However, Su Yunchu looked at the arrow feathers he shot, and few of them hit the bull's-eye, so he couldn't help shaking his head slightly, "It's still not proficient enough, this traditional bow and arrow is really not as good as a crossbow."

Murong Yuan had put away his surprised expression, but looked at Su Yunchu and said, "What did Ah Chu understand, how could he improve so fast?"

Yan Yishan couldn't help but leaned forward, "Su San, you couldn't have pretended earlier, did you..."

Su Yunchu chuckled, "Learning archery is also skillful. The range of traditional bows and arrows is at most about 150 steps. Regarding, I just came into contact with it before, and I couldn't understand the technique of exerting force. However, after watching Huaiqing's several exercises and his explanations, I also understood a little bit. The center of gravity and centroid of the arrow feather itself is placed on the bow handle Different positions above will have different shooting effects, and the length and width of the bowstring will also affect the shooting of the arrow itself, which is the embodiment of the knowledge of force in the bow and arrow.”

But Yan Yishan was confused, what is the center of gravity, and what is the center of shape?

Although Murong Yuan didn't know what the unfamiliar words in Su Yunchu's mouth were, they did not hinder his understanding of Su Yunchu's words. What surprised him was that Su Yunchu was able to sum up in such a short time. out this theory.

Following Su Yunchu's words, Murong Yuan continued, "Ah Chu is right!" He praised Su Yunchu without discomfort in his tone.

Su Yunchu shook his head, "The range of traditional bows and arrows is too short, and it is more difficult to practice. They will be eliminated in the battlefield after all." However, Su Yunchu also understands that at the current level Under the circumstances, firearms have not been really well developed and utilized. Today, the long-range weapons on the battlefield are still bows and crossbows. These remarks are nothing but groundless exclamations.

Murong Yuan understood in his heart why Su Yunchu sighed, "What do you think, Ah Chu?"

Su Yunchu put the bow and arrow in his hand aside, but picked up a crossbow, "Compared with arrows, I prefer to use crossbows!"

Speaking, the bow and crossbow in his hand fell to the ground and sent out an arrow feather, which hit the center of the arrow target a hundred and fifty steps away.

It's just that today's crossbows are really inferior to the level of the later Tang and Song Dynasties. The range of each arrow is not far enough, which is no different from the range of bows and arrows. Apart from being easier to operate than traditional bows and arrows, the meaning of existence is not not big.

Seeing that Su Yunchu seems to be extremely proficient in using the crossbow, Yan Yishan is stunned again, who is this woman Murong Yuan is looking for!

Seeing that Su Yunchu used the crossbow machine to lightly fire a crossbow arrow, and the posture was correct and natural, and then saw her looking at the crossbow machine in her hand with a slight distaste, Murong Yuan's eyes flickered slightly, "Ah Chu said to the army The crossbow machine is not satisfied."

Su Yunchu made no secret of it, "I'm really dissatisfied. I think that with the current level of technology, the shortest firing distance of the manufactured crossbow should be two hundred steps away."

Yan Yishan was dissatisfied, "Two hundred steps is already a long way!"

Su Yunchu looked at him and shook his head, "If there is more processing on the materials and mechanism, three hundred steps will not be a problem at all."

"Heh! You're joking." Yan Yishan couldn't believe her words.

Su Yunchu curled his lips, not responding to Yan Yishan's words.

But Murong Yuan, who was standing by the side, really listened to Su Yunchu's words. The three-hundred-step crossbow machine is a level he dared to imagine but could not reach. Beiliang is a fierce nation in the north. In terms of riding and archery, it has always had an advantage, even in terms of riding and archery tools, it is better than Daxin. This is one of the reasons why the two countries have not seen a clear conclusion despite frequent battles over the years.

Su Yunchu didn't say any more, but picked up the bow and arrow, and continued to practice on the field, but, looking at Yan Yishan's previous expression, he had a slight idea in his heart, and he didn't know if it could be formed in the end.

When I returned to Murong Yuan's tent at night, Murong Yuan was not in the tent because he had to deal with military affairs. Looking at the desk where Murong Yuan was supposed to be staying, Su Yunchu stepped forward and looked at the desk. Spread out a piece of white paper on the table, pick up a small unburned charcoal in the stove, and draw something on the spread out white paper.

At night, as soon as Murong Yuan entered the tent, he saw the person who usually read military books and the analysis of previous years' battle reports on the soft couch, sitting behind the desk and drawing something, under the candlelight. Her lips were tightly pursed, she was very quiet, and she looked extremely serious. It seemed that she lacked the tenderness of a young girl and more of the calmness of a wise man.

The corner of Murong Yuan's mouth raised a smile unconsciously, and he walked towards Su Yunchu.

Hearing the footsteps, Su Yunchu didn't raise his head, but said naturally, "Huaiqing, come and have a look."

When Murong Yuan walked over to take a look, he saw that Su Yunchu had already drawn the shapes of several crossbow machines and small pictures of some parts on the white paper with charcoal pencils of different thicknesses. Machines are very different.

Although Murong Yuan was surprised, he raised his eyebrows slightly, "This is what Ah Chu is satisfied with."

Su Yunchu pursed his lips and smiled, with a hint of coquettishness in his smile, "Not yet, but combined with the current level, I think it should be possible to manufacture such a crossbow. The crossbow that satisfies me is now , it is still difficult to manufacture."

Murong Yuan's eyes flickered slightly, "Ah Chu wants to make these in the picture?"

Su Yunchu looked at him with a smile on his face, "How does Huaiqing feel?"

"Let's try it first, and then make plans if you can." This is the most conservative statement, Murong Yuan will not blindly indulge Su Yunchu.

Su Yunchu understood the meaning, but looked at Murong Yuan and said, "We need a trustworthy and experienced craftsman who specializes in making crossbows, Huai Qing, I want to try it before returning to Beijing. "

Murong Yuan nodded, "Well, I'll prepare for Ah Chu tomorrow."

Hearing this, Su Yunchu said, "Actually, the ones in the picture are not the best. If it is possible, I think there should be a plan for the next step."

Murong Yuan raised his eyebrows, "What other plans does Ah Chu have?"

Su Yunchu betrayed him, "Secret!"

Murong Yuan smiled and said nothing, but he condoned her "hiding and not reporting"

On the second day, Murong Yuan really found an old man with many years of experience in making crossbows for Su Yunchu. She is very familiar with the crossbow machine, no matter what dynasty or generation it is, as long as it is famous, she is familiar with it. Therefore, there are not many obstacles in the conversation with the old man.

After Su Yunchu took out the design drawing, the old man's eyes lit up, "This..." He has been making crossbows for decades, and he is constantly exploring and improving, but he has never seen one before. For such a delicate and complicated thing, his hands trembled slightly even holding the blueprint.

"Military division...here, where did this picture come from?"

Su Yunchu looked at the old man's excited expression, but still had a faint smile on his face, "I'm not talented, what does the old man think?"

After hearing this, the old man's expression became even more excited. At Su Yunchu's age, it was unbelievable to be called a military adviser, not to mention the blueprint that he had never seen before as a crossbow craftsman in half his life.

But although he was excited, he didn't say much after all, "Okay! This old man must do his best to see and manufacture such a crossbow. This old man should have no regrets in his life."

Su Yunchu can understand the mood of this kind of person who is obsessed with certain things, so he doesn't say anything more, "Then trouble the old man, how about three days?"

The old man lowered his head and pondered for a while, then raised his head, but said seriously, "Yes!"

Su Yunchu nodded, "If there is something unclear in the drawing, the old man can ask me."

The old man didn't say any more, but took Su Yunchu's design and studied it seriously.

In the past three days, Su Yunchu spent most of his time with the old man, and he didn't pay much attention to the things that were given to Lan Ying earlier. A crossbow like a crossbow, but she also understands that making such a crossbow requires extremely high precision. Now, it is really difficult to do it, but even if it is difficult, she still has the heart to try.

Therefore, in the past few days, the old man was making the crossbow that she made according to the level of the Song Dynasty, while she herself was studying the greater possibility.

That is, even Murong Yuan seldom saw her these three days, and the two of them could only see her at night.

Three days passed in a flash, when the pattern on Su Yunchu's design was restored into a real crossbow, the one who looked the most excited was the maker, because of time, he just made one, but, Su Yunchu and the old man have extremely high requirements in terms of material selection and details. Therefore, after Su Yunchu's first arrow attempt, he confirmed that the crossbow machine has met his own standards. In front of Murong Yuan.

In Lan Ying's large tent, when Su Yunchu put the crossbow machine in front of everyone, everyone was amazed. Everyone just paid attention to the crossbow machine, and didn't think too much about it. Now, seeing Su Yunchu put on the table, which is completely different from the crossbow machine used in the army, I can't believe it.

Yan Yishan picked it up first, and looked at it almost inch by inch, "It really is different."

Su Yunchu raised his eyebrows, "General Yan, do you want to try?"

Yan Yishan has long been eager to try, so he doesn't say any more, just takes the crossbow machine, goes outside the camp, and shoots an arrow in the distance. The use of the crossbow machine is similar, Yan Yishan doesn't feel How difficult it is.

When the arrow was fired, Yan Yishan already understood from the touch, that the crossbow in his hand was indeed better than those used in the military today.

Looking at the crossbow arrows that were obviously two hundred steps away in the distance, Yan Yishan sighed in admiration, "It's really unexpected, there really is such a thing."

Su Yunchu smiled lightly, "Now you know I'm not joking."

Yan Yishan was a little embarrassed on the surface, and he admired Su Yunchu in his heart, "It's not like I've never seen this before."

The people next to him, when they saw this scene, looked at the crossbow in Yan Yishan's hand, they were envious for a long time, and wanted to go forward to try it.

Su Yunchu's literary and military skills can no longer surprise them. After all, these days in the army, Su Yunchu always brought waves of surprises, which made them habitually believe that, This mysterious military division can bring them many unexpected things.

Su Yunchu, however, withdrew from the crowd who were scrambling to use the crossbow, exchanged glances with Murong Yuan, and left side by side.

After walking for a while, Murong Yuan sighed helplessly, "Ah Chu is so outstanding, I'm afraid I'm not good enough for Ah Chu."

Su Yunchu raised his eyes and glanced at him, "If that's the case, then go away."

Murong Yuan gently pulled her into his arms, "No!"

Su Yunchu struggled slightly, and whispered, "Let go, this is in the army!"

Looking at the soldiers who were training not far away, Su Yunchu felt ashamed. Murong Yuan could suddenly make such an intimate gesture towards her regardless of the occasion, location and time.

Murong Yuan understood her embarrassment, so he didn't insist anymore, and let him go, with a proud look on his face, "Even if Ah Chu is so good, it's mine. He is the most outstanding man in the world!"

Su Yunchu chuckled inwardly, ignoring his scoundrel.

However, he said sternly, "Huaiqing, Beiliang is good at riding and shooting. Have you ever thought about setting up a team of crossbows and arrows to point the needle at the wheat."

Listening to Su Yunchu's words, Murong Yuan also put away the look on his face, "It's not that I never thought about it, but Ah Chu also saw the appearance of the bows and crossbows used in the army before, not to mention, forming an army is easier said than done. , that is Blue Eagle, and now, it has been restrained everywhere."

Su Yunchu understood this level, but only looked at Murong Yuan, his eyes were shining brightly, "Lan Ying didn't need too many people. Now, there are 8,000 Lan Ying. Huaiqing, 8,000 is not one." A small number is likely to cause other things, what if the number of Blue Eagles is reduced, and 3,000 of them are used to form the crossbow team?"

Because of the large number of Blue Eagles, Emperor Yongye feared them. Even though they made great achievements in battle in the past two years, it was because they only obeyed Murong Yuan's orders, and the other generals did not command or did not know how to command. In the past two years, Emperor Yongye had already had a headache.

Hearing this, Murong Yuan pursed his lips slightly, "Is this Ah Chu's idea?"

Su Yunchu was eager to explain, "Huaiqing, I don't want to dismantle Lanying, I just think..."

Murong Yuan interrupted her, "Ah Chu, you don't need to say more, I understand." How could he not understand her, she sees things much more thoroughly than ordinary people.

After pondering for a while, Murong Yuan said, "If you let Ah Chu form the crossbow team, how would Ah Chu feel?"

Su Yunchu was slightly taken aback, "Me?"

Murong Yuan nodded, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyes showed complete trust in Su Yunchu, "I don't think there is anyone more suitable than Ah Chu." In such a short period of time, there is no one who knows more than her in mastering a subject.
