Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord
Chapter 18
Niu Ben is a knight. The knights of this era are very demanding, and longbow shooting is one of the compulsory courses; his arrows are very accurate, no worse than those who hunt all year round.
The recurve bow is one of the bows and arrows Liu Feng brought from the earth, and he prepared it for his army.
"Huh? How could it be?" Niu Ben looked at the recurve bow in his hand in amazement. The bow string was drawn with great effort, several times harder than the longbow he had drawn in the capital.
"Whoosh!"
"boom!"
Niu Ben strenuously pulled the full string, and the long arrow whizzed out, hit the target on the wall, pierced through directly, half of the long arrow sank into the earth wall.
"Hiss..." Niu Ben and Mina took a breath, and hurried forward to observe, the more they looked, the more surprised they became.
"The power of this recurve bow is too powerful. It can penetrate so much into a wall at a distance of 50 meters. That knight's armor..."
If Niu Ben didn't continue, everyone present understood that the knight's armor couldn't stop the recurve bow at all.
"This kind of recurve bow has too much pulling force. Few people can pull it away. Even if you pull it, you can't shoot many arrows. And only with a special arrow can tear the knight's armor." Mina immediately noticed. The downside of this recurve bow.
Liu Feng had thought about it a long time ago. When he came to another box, he took out another recurve bow and said, "There are still some recurve bows here, but they are not as powerful as the ones held by Uncle Niu Ben, but they are thirty to forty meters long. With special arrows, it is still no problem to shoot through armor."
"Let me try." Mina ran over, took the recurve bow, and stretched the string without much effort. The long arrow hit the bull's-eye, and the entire arrow penetrated the target.
"Amazing!" Niu Ben praised after seeing it.
"I only have a few of the powerful recurve bows in Uncle Niu Ben's hands, but there are dozens of recurve bows of that level in Mina's hands."
Liu Feng opened a box again, which contained special arrows.
"These arrows are all specially made and can easily penetrate the knight's armor, but you have to save them, there are not many arrows."
Immediately afterwards, Liu Feng opened several boxes in succession, one of which contained only three longbows, he took out one and said:
"This is a composite hunting bow of a higher level than the recurve bow. I spent a lot of money to get it. It is more powerful than the recurve bow in Uncle Niu Ben's hand, but the pulling force is easier."
"What?"
Niu Ben and Mina opened their mouths wide, quickly put down the recurve bow, and ran over to pick up the compound hunting bow, but they were a little confused.
"How do I use this? There are so many bow strings." Mina was a little confused, and she also found that the bow body in her hand was not made of wood, and there were several small circles.
"This is the main string..." Liu Feng pointed a few times, both of them were experts, and immediately knew how to do it.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
"Bang bang!!"
The two shot long arrows one after another, leaving only a hole in the target, and as long as the tail of the arrow could be seen in the earth wall, the whole long arrow shot into the earth wall.
"This... This is too terrifying, I'm afraid it can shoot the knight right through?" Niu Ben said dully, and couldn't help shivering.
"Young master, such a big killer can't be placed here, or if someone gets it, it will do too much harm to you."
Mina said anxiously, she was the first to think of assassination, if anyone has such a composite hunting bow, he can easily kill a person from a hundred meters away.
"Indeed, it is strictly forbidden to be guarded." Niu Ben said seriously.
Liu Feng waved his hand and said indifferently, "Okay, for these three compound hunting bows, give one to Uncle Niu Ben, one to Mina, and keep the rest, and reward the great hero later. Well, it’s a waste to hide it, so it’s better to take it out and use it.”
"No, this must be kept as a background." Niu Ben immediately refused, resolutely refused, and refused to accept the compound hunting bow no matter what, Liu Feng generously rewarded him, but he had to be self-aware.
In his opinion, this composite hunting bow is basically a divine weapon. If it is sold in the capital, it can be sold for thousands of gold coins at least.
This is very expensive, comparable to the income of a big nobleman for several years, he dare not accept it.
"Master, this composite hunting bow is a waste in my hands, why don't I accept this recurve bow." Niu Ben carefully put down the composite hunting bow, and picked up the powerful recurve bow beside him.
"Master, I can't take it either. The saber you gave is enough for me." Mina turned her wrist, and a saber appeared in her hand.
Liu Feng is helpless, the compound hunting bow is too advanced for people of this era, even the almost recurve bow is much more advanced than the longbow of this era.
Lian Niu Ben and Mina felt that it was too precious, which is why Liu Feng only brought three compound hunting bows. Recurve bows are enough for people of this era.
Chapter 0025 The elves are all marksmen.
"Okay, then put away this compound hunting bow and take it to the inner vault of the castle."
Liu Feng has no choice but to hide all the treasures, too advanced may not be suitable.
"Master, the main reason is that we can't use the full power of this composite hunting bow, it would be a waste for us, it's not as real as a recurve bow." Mina shook her ears and said softly.
"Indeed, this composite hunting bow requires a sharpshooter to exert its greatest power." Niu Ben nodded in agreement.
"A sharpshooter? How can one be considered a sharpshooter?" Liu Feng was a little curious.
Mina narrowed her eyes, and said in a serious tone, "Elves, they are all natural marksmen, and with ordinary longbows, they can shoot targets tens of meters away. I'm afraid I can shoot someone at more than 200 meters."
"Have you ever seen people from the elves?" Liu Feng was taken aback. These are more powerful than some pistols. It seems that people in this world should not be underestimated.
"I have encountered it a few times in the Forbidden Mountains." Mina nodded.
A trace of sadness flashed in Niu Ben's eyes, and he said, "I saw it by chance in the capital."
Liu Feng frowned, thinking that the elves were not simple, and they would admire them endlessly. He was also curious whether the elves had pointy ears.
If he had the chance, he would definitely steal...cough coughcough...hiring a few elves to serve him, it would be good to form a team of elf marksmen, maybe this is the alien version of the sniper team.
"Master, although the recurve bow is very good, it will take several months for those rookie soldiers to know how to use it and shoot accurately." Niu Ben calmed down and asked the key point.
The corner of Liu Feng's mouth turned upwards. He had already passed the exam on this question, and asked, "How many of those people can master the recurve bow within ten days?"
Niu Ben took out a roll of sheepskin from his pocket, and said, "There are twenty hunters. They hunt with bows and arrows all year round. It shouldn't be difficult to master a recurve bow."
"Very well, there are more than I imagined, then let them use the recurve bow."
Liu Feng came to another box and took out a military crossbow from it. This was his big weapon.
"Master, is this also a bow and arrow? It seems a bit small." Mina asked curiously.
"Let's see how I do it first." Liu Feng quickly installed the long arrow, aimed at the target and pulled the trigger.
"Whoosh!"
The long arrow immediately hit the bull's eye, which made Mina and Niu Ben's eyes shine.
"Master let me try." Niu Ben stepped forward to take the crossbow, and shot seven or eight arrows in succession.
