Your majesty is awesome

Chapter 266 Such a fast rate of fire, such a long range... (one more)
"Sister is talking about your age, really..."

Miss Shi Shi saw Gao Zhang staring at her unwillingly with a small face, she smiled sweetly, as if she was really just talking about her age.

Heh... Female goblin, forget it, let my master take you in. As a disciple, I should walk the right path more and do more serious things.

On the day of the military exercise, Gao Zhang specially put on his red official robe, led a group of personal guards, and rushed to the residence where the envoy of the Liao Kingdom lived, and picked up Xiao Fengxian.

After that, he went straight out of the city towards Xinzheng Gate on the west side of Bianliang, Tokyo, and continued to rush west.

After traveling for more than twenty miles, I turned to a small path, which was not far away.

I saw more than a dozen soldiers guarding the trail, and even the trail was lined with refusal horses.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Fengxian couldn't help but subconsciously look at Gao Zhang beside him.

Seeing the prodigy number one scholar continue to ride his horse forward, and one of the guards here saw Gao Zhang, and quickly stepped forward to salute him.

"The general has seen the Yamen, why did the Yamen come here?"

"I have an important matter to discuss with my father today, and I heard that he is hosting a military exercise here today, so I came here specially."

Hearing Gao Zhang's words, that person couldn't help but look a little ugly, and subconsciously raised his head to look at the servants of the Gao family behind Gao Zhang.

Gao Zhang's face suddenly darkened, and he said softly in displeasure.

"Why, do you think that this official can still be an enemy spy?"

"No, no, of course it's impossible. Since the Yameni wants to find the Taiwei, then the general is willing to lead the way for the Yameni. What are you doing in a daze, don't move the rejecting horse quickly."

Accompanied by the sound of scolding, after the refusal to move away, the head of the capital took the lead. Of course, in order to avoid silence, the head of the capital told Gao Zhang very earnestly.

Today the Taiwei presided over the military exercise, so all the troops worked extra hard.

Moreover, there are a total of [-] forbidden troops in the military exercise here today. It is precisely because the scale is too large that they choose such a remote place to prevent disturbing the people.

Hearing that there were [-] people today, Xiao Fengxian couldn't help but look forward to it secretly, hoping to see the very powerful new long-range weapons of the Song Dynasty military that Gao Zhang said.

It can be compared to the god arm bow, and Daliao has naturally heard of the god arm bow.

Although there has been a lot of peace between Daliao and Song, at most there are only some minor frictions.

Therefore, I have never been able to see this kind of ordnance, which was regarded as a long-range individual weapon by the Song Dynasty.

However, Xixia can often taste the bitterness of this divine arm bow. It is said that this thing can penetrate leather armor at a distance of about two hundred steps.

Fortunately, it is very difficult to make this kind of long-range weapon, which made it impossible for the army of Song Dynasty to equip it in large quantities.

If now, listening to the complacent Song Jun bragging in front of him, it seems that the range of this new long-range weapon of the Song Dynasty is not inferior to the magic arm bow.

Moreover, its production is simpler than that of the god arm bow, which is very beneficial to the large-scale and large-scale equipment of the Song army.

While speaking, the group heard a sound similar to rain coming from the mouth of the valley ahead.

"Did you hear it in the Yamen? This is the sound that can only be produced when a thousand arrows are fired..."

#####
Soon, Xiao Fengxian who was following Gao Zhang saw a scene that shocked him beyond measure.

He saw at least [-] soldiers of the Song Dynasty forming a phalanx, neatly arranged on the plain.

And at this moment, every square formation will have a canopy of arrows flying into the sky every one or two breaths.

Then it traveled a very long distance, and it fell at least two hundred steps away.

But at this moment, countless feathered arrows were stuck in the arrow stacks and grassland two hundred steps away, it looked like an overly productive wheat field.

"Such a fast rate of fire, such a long range..."

Xiao Feng first heard that although the magic arm bow of the Song Dynasty had a long range, its firing speed was far inferior to that of bows and arrows.

But now, there are at least [-] soldiers of the Song Dynasty forming a phalanx in front of them, and the interval between each shot of each phalanx is less than two breaths.

In other words, there is no difference from ordinary bows and arrows.

If the same number of Daliao elites were to face off with this Song Dynasty archer, at least half of them would be killed or injured before they rushed to the front.

After all, as a vulgar warrior who likes to wield knives and swords, Xiao Fengxian can be regarded as adept at bow and horse.

Seeing such a long-range weapon, he immediately realized that if Da Song is really in the future war, he will face Daliao.

Even if the cavalry of the Song Army is not large at all, but just relying on this long-range weapon, which is far superior to ordinary bows and arrows, is enough to make them invincible.

At this moment, I heard a big flag erected high in this plain, on the general platform rammed with soil, and after the thunderous war drum sounded.

Accompanied by the waving flag, many things that looked like carriages placed in the other direction began to approach the bow and arrow troops.

After a short rest, the bow and arrow troops once again opened their bows and arrows, shooting at the van teams about 120 to 150 steps away from them.

"What are they doing, why are they shooting those heavy ordnance?"

Gao Zhang asked the Dutou who hadn't left with a curious baby's expression.

"The yamen don't know something, this is naturally a test of the power of the arrows shot by these bows."

"See how far you need to break through these iron-covered vans."

Before he finished speaking, he saw that some vans had only traveled about twenty steps, then stopped their forward speed, and began to wave white flags from the gaps in the compartments.

As the last van also raised the white flag, finally, the crazily majestic bow and arrow troops finally stopped shooting.

At this time, a horse came galloping from Dianjiangtai, and it was Gao Zhang's father's confidant, who hurriedly led Gao Zhang and his group towards Dianjiangtai.

Xiao Feng suppressed the throbbing in his heart first, and accelerated to keep up.

#####
After the father and son muttered in front of the general stage, Gao Zhang pointed to the vans full of arrows, wanting to witness the power of this bow for himself.

Naturally, Gao Taiwei would not stop his beloved son, and even happily accompanied Gao Zhang to go.

And as Gao Zhang's guard, Xiao Fengxian finally had a chance to get close to those vans that were getting out of them.

Only then did I notice that the fronts, left and right sides of these vans were all covered with iron plates.

But at this moment, especially the iron plate on the front is densely filled with arrows...
