0043 Ravens that go and return
Judging from the analytical diagram on the scroll, the blt92f type continuous-firing crossbow gun has a very complex production process. The part where the crossbow arrows are stored is similar to the magazine of an automatic gun. It is equipped with a clever spring structure inside, which is convenient for automatic filling.
Springs have very strict requirements on metals and are not parts that can be produced in this era. This technology alone exceeds the current world for at least 1,800 years.
As for the launch system, it is even more advanced. It is composed of a very precise and ingenious mechanical structure, hidden inside the body of the crossbow gun, and a large number of gears and connecting rods are used to achieve automatic upward and continuous firing of the torsion spring. Augustus has not yet studied the skills at all.
“Look at how excellent it is!”
Augustus muttered, too lazy to study the dazzling drawings anymore. He pressed his thumb on the hexagram in the lower right corner of the scroll, and then the light shone brightly, and a detailed assembly and disassembly process appeared in his mind, no matter how big or small it was.
The hand sank, and the blt92f type continuous crossbow gun appeared on Augustus's hand. The main structure is made of wood, with a small number of metal parts on the outside. The whole body is about 40 cm long, which is smaller than the crossbow, but slightly larger than the light crossbow.
Augustus weighed it and said that the crossbow gun weighed about seven or eight pounds. Not to mention bows and arrows, even his own fine iron sword is not that heavy. However, it can be understood that the two major characteristics of automatic loading and continuous firing are the main reasons for the heavy crossbow gun, and the other point is the crossbow arrow.
The matching crossbow arrow of the blt92f type continuous crossbow gun is very small. Augustus removed the "magazine" full of crossbow arrows, picked out one and measured it with his finger. It was about eight centimeters, like a reduced version of the arrow, and the whole body is made of metal. Although it is short and full of weight, it is held in the hand and sinks.
"No wonder it's so heavy, these crossbow arrows alone are not light..."
Augustus counted and there were ten crossbow arrows stored in the magazine of the crossbow gun. He put the magazine back on the crossbow gun and pulled the loading lever according to the "instructions for use" in his mind.
While the pull rod was pulled, the sound of gears and torsion springs sounded inside the crossbow gun. Because it was a closed design, it was impossible to see how the crossbow gun operated from the outside, but just listening to the sound, you can imagine many precise parts operating in an orderly manner.
With a light sound, a crossbow arrow lay on the launching chamber. Next, you only need to pull the trigger to fire the crossbow arrow. From Augustus pulling the loading rod to being ready for the launch, the whole process does not exceed three seconds.
Augustus looked left and right with his crossbow gun in his hands, and wanted to test the power of the crossbow gun, but he couldn't use it in the bedroom, and he had no suitable shooting target and did not have enough distance to test the range.
"Since it is known as a continuous-firing crossbow gun, let's try the continuous-firing effect first."
Augustus knew that everyone was waiting for him in the vestibular vestibule, and he couldn't walk much today, but this did not hinder the enthusiasm for experimenting with new weapons. He raised his crossbow gun and aimed the heavy door panel with a cross aiming device, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Bang!
Crack...bang...crack...bang...
After a while, ten crossbow arrows were fired in an empty space, saying they were continuous shots, but they didn't have to manually fill in the crossbow arrows and the upper force. There was still a certain interval between each shot, which was about two seconds.
Augustus recalled carefully that he had never used guns in his previous life, but he had played in the game. The fire rate of crossbow guns is indeed not fast, and it is even far from comparable to ordinary pistols. However, in this era, shooting ten powerful crossbow arrows in twenty seconds is definitely an extremely amazing weapon.
"It's good, and the accuracy and penetration within at least ten meters are excellent!"
Augustus walked to the door and touched the tail of the crossbow arrow that was only two or three centimeters outside, and said in his heart: "Even wooden boards can be pierced four or five centimeters, and the fine iron armor will definitely not be blocked!"
Regardless of the range, with this penetration, Augustus felt that he was so perverted that he could not even pull the crossbow arrow out of the door panel...
"It seems that if you don't remove the door, you won't be able to remove the crossbow arrow..." August muttered a little embarrassedly. The power of the crossbow gun was greater than he thought. He thought that at most one head could be pierced in and pulled it out as soon as he pulled it out.
"Are you going to leave here? I saw a lot of people gathered in the yard." A crisp sound rang out from the windowsill.
Augustus was about to call the servant to tear the door, but was shocked by the sudden sound.
"Hei... Xiaodu, you are here just in time. I have something to ask you."
The raven flew to the wooden door of the bedroom and stood on the tail of the crossbow arrow, saying, "It's still so rude. Shouldn't you answer my question first?"
Augustus curled his lips secretly and nodded, "I'm going to the Earl's city-state. You came by chance. I'm leaving soon."
From Baihe Town to Guanghui City, according to Augustus's idea, it was like a family in the countryside and then went to the county town to purchase. There was no need to mobilize all the troops, making it as grand as if they were going to learn from the scriptures.
The Raven tilted his neck and looked at the crossbow arrow nailed to the door panel, then turned around and said, "Do you want to ask about magic? I'll go with you."
…………
On Griffin Avenue, Baron Augustus's team was heading southwest, and Augustus rode Bai Zhan to the forefront of the team.
Logically speaking, Raymond, who carried the Griffin family flag, should follow Augustus closely, but now he is at least thirty meters behind. There is no way. This is the lord's mandatory requirement...
"Brother Raymond, when did Lord Lord raise a raven?"
Square-faced Drake looked at the lord who was far ahead and asked in confusion. He was quite clear about the raven, the crow and the raven, knowing that the lord was standing on his shoulder.
Ravens are very rare, at least in the long winter and short summer, the Kingdom of Hiyes.
Raymond tightened the flagpole tied to the saddle and said, "I don't know either. Maybe... it's Lord Lord's pet?"
The hobby of keeping pets is more popular in the circle of great aristocrats. At least the nobles above the earl have the leisure and elegance. Barons can only raise dogs or wolves, and can help when hunting and fighting.
"Lord is really low-key. He keeps a raven silently. I always thought...hehe, I think Thunder Axe Castle is under great financial pressure." Drag said embarrassedly.
Ravens are definitely a rare bird and are very valuable, especially in the Kingdom of Hiyes where there is no raven. A duke's descendant once issued a notice, intending to buy ravens with fifty gold coins, but in the end it was still unsuccessful.
Kolf frowned slightly after hearing Drake's words. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Maybe... it was not bought by an adult, probably because it was captured. He planned to take it to Guanghui City to sell it."
"It's possible, but it's hard to sell Raven in Guanghui City to a high price..."
"But the journey to Tulip City is too far, just to sell ravens seems inappropriate."
