Chapter 298 Plot of Hulao Pass

"Great, hurry up and get dressed up and give it a try!"

Zhang Bei was very excited. He also specially prepared a set of equipment, including war horses, armor, Fang Tian's painted halberd, etc. It was similar to Yang Ming's equipment, only one size smaller.

Soon, with the help of the staff, the two of them put on their armor, put on their makeup, and then took Fang Tian's painted halberd and mounted their horses.

Zhang Bei played with the Fang Tian Painted Halberd in his hand and couldn't help but sigh: "The level of props now has indeed improved a lot. The weight is just right."

Zhang Bei has said in some interviews before that when filming Lao Sanguo, he actually had two Fangtian painted halberds, one was real and the other was fake.

The real Fang Tian Painted Halberd is really made of pig iron and weighs less than thirty kilograms.

The other one is made of rubber.

There was a very classic scene where Dong Zhuo bumped into Lu Bu and Diao Chan. In anger, he picked up Fang Tian's painted halberd and threw it at Lu Bu. The original book said "the cloth hit the halberd and fell to the ground". It was also filmed in the TV series of the Three Kingdoms this scene.

In fact, the scene of catching the halberd with bare hands was actually filmed, and the director requested that it must be shot with a real halberd. However, due to many other reasons, the scene was changed to a scene where the halberd was inserted into a pillar next to it.

But no matter what, there were indeed some minor problems with the production of props at that time.

The real thing is too heavy. On the one hand, it is prone to danger. Not to mention throwing it over and poking it. Even when filming some martial arts scenes, it is easy to get injured if you are not careful.

After all, we are all actors, not real military commanders in history.

Moreover, weapons that are too heavy will also affect action shooting.

The fight scenes in Lao Sanguo are actually relatively simple, especially the fights between generals on horses. Basically, there are few fancy movements, and the understanding of the battle is often expressed through simple movements and side descriptions.

This is partly due to the action design, but there is also a very important point: the weapons are too heavy!
In order to highlight the reality of the props, many weapons are made of pig iron, and their weight actually exceeds the weight range of normal cold weapons for combat.

According to the novel, the weapons of these famous generals often weighed 222 kilograms. Even according to the weight of about 15 grams per kilogram in the late Han Dynasty, these weapons weighed more than [-] kilograms.

From this point of view, the crew of Lao Sanguo is indeed quite realistic. The weapons used by the actors are actually not much different from the weapons recorded in the novel.

But romance novels are exaggerated after all. In fact, weapons that can be used on the battlefield are not that heavy at all. For example, the spear recorded in the Ming Dynasty's military book weighs three kilograms, which is actually only three kilograms and five taels in today's weight. This is more normal. The data.

Even taking into account the strength of some fierce generals, this figure will be doubled or tripled at most, and the weight of seven, eight, or ten kilograms will be the limit.

The entire weapon and the gun barrel are made of pig iron, which was actually impossible in ancient times. It was more of an exaggeration in a romance novel.

Therefore, now the production level of props of the "Sword Shadow and Prairie Fire" crew has been improved, and the materials are no longer limited to pig iron and rubber. Naturally, weapons can be produced that better meet the weight requirements.

Zhang Bei and Yang Ming each mounted their horses and briefly waved the Fangtian Painted Halberd in their hands. Don't tell me, the weight is just right!
It is neither too heavy, which makes it difficult to swing and affects the movement, nor is it too light, which makes the weapon look unrealistically light.

In particular, the workmanship of these two Fangtian painted halberds is very good and very strong. Even if they collide with ordinary weapons, there is no need to worry about any serious damage.

Of course, even if it is damaged, it is not necessarily a bad thing. At least Li Rushan should be eager to ask the prop team to make brand new props immediately.

"Don't tell me, I really felt that high-spirited feeling back then.

"It would be great if I could fight against the eighteen princes again!" Although Teacher Zhang Bei is already very old, his body is well maintained and he can still ride a horse and play with a halberd, galloping around the field. After all, this physical fitness is much better than Li Rushan.

As for Yang Ming, since the horse he rides is essentially a draft horse, he can't gallop like Teacher Zhang Bei. What's more, he himself is not good at riding, so he can only put on a show.

But even so, he was still completely immersed in the feeling of playing Lu Bu.

"Mr. Lu, what's the plot here? Are the eighteen princes still attacking Dong Zhuo?" Yang Ming asked curiously.

Lu Zhixing smiled and shook his head: "No.

"The plot here will have three possibilities based on the plot direction chosen by the player before."

Lu Zhixing began to briefly introduce the plot of Hulao Pass to the two of them.

According to the setting of "Sword Shadow and Set on Fire", the world is in chaos, and the timeline experienced by players is completely chaotic. It can be seen as different major events happening in various locations at the same time.Which events the player triggers first and which events are triggered later will affect the final outcome of the entire game.

Here in Hulao Pass, there may be three different plot trends at the same time.

These three plot trends are: the traditional three heroes fighting Lu Bu, the player fighting Lu Bu alone, and the player fighting the heroes alone.

If the player has previously completed the plots related to the three brothers Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei in other locations, such as Taoyuan, Yellow Turban Army, etc., and has established a relatively close relationship with these three brothers, then the traditional The plot of the three heroes fighting against Lu Bu.

After completing any one's plot, he will help as a helper.

The benefits of helping Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are obviously relatively large. After all, Liu Bei's combat power is just a head start.Each time one is activated, the player's combat difficulty will drop sharply.

If all three brothers are activated, the player can even choose not to take action and watch the three brothers attack Lu Bu, easily completing the level.

But if the player does not complete the plot line of any of them, then they must monopolize Lu Bu.

At this time, the players are just like Fang Yue and Mu Shun who were beheaded. They go out to fight Lu Bu as cannon fodder, and the battle difficulty is directly maxed out.

Of course, there is no kill relationship between the player and Lu Bu. As long as the player fights with Lu Bu for a period of time, a cutscene will be automatically triggered and the level will be cleared.

However, compared to the previous easy clearance method, this hard-power clearance can bring more rewards and more reputation to players, and will also have an impact on many subsequent plots.

As a soldier who can challenge Lu Bu without losing, the player will become famous in the future and affect the attitudes and plot lines of many characters.

In addition, there is a third plot line, which is to stand on Lu Bu's side and fight for Lu Bu alone.

This requires players to complete the plot lines related to Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo in advance, and during the battle, they will encounter wheel battles, sieges, etc. just like Lu Bu.

This plot line is the most difficult and dangerous, and will have some negative effects. For example, helping Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu will make the eighteen princes have a bad impression of themselves, which will affect some future plots.

However, the follow-up of this plot line can open up Lu Bu's plot, and have the opportunity to obtain Lu Bu's assistance and unique rewards.

Lu Zhixing casually took a prop gun with a tip wrapped around it from the side and said to Yang Ming, "Come on, let's make some gestures!"
