Yang Zhechong took the sniper rifle blankly, feeling as if he was dreaming. But the unique roasted blue metallic luster in front of him and the heavy feel reminded him that this magical weapon was really in his hand.

superior.

Di Lie patiently waited for Yang Zhechong to adapt to the new weapon before telling him how to aim at three points and one line and how to use the sight to lock the target.

If it were another person, just a scope would be enough to make him dizzy for a long time. However, besides Di Lie, Yang Zhechong was the one who played with scopes the most. He was already quite familiar with its performance and quickly got started with it.

Already.

Seeing the ant-sized target three hundred steps away, in the scope, it was as big as a fist. Yang Zhechong was confident about hitting the target, but he had doubts about such an ultra-long range.

Three hundred steps! That's a range that even the God's Arm Bow can't match. You probably need to use a three-bow bed crossbow (a large long-range city defense weapon in the Song Dynasty. There are three super powerful crossbows on the crossbow arms, two on the front, and two on the back.

Installing one is also installed relative to the front and rear. Because this type of crossbow is more powerful, it is also called the "Eight Ox Crossbow", which means that it takes the power of eight old oxen to pull it open. It usually takes 20 to 20 to open the crossbow manually.

Only one hundred people can achieve such an astonishing distance. However, using a three-bow bed crossbow to aim and shoot a human-shaped target 300 steps away... It seems that no one has done such a crazy and stupid thing since the invention of the bed crossbow.

thing.

However, in the early years of this dynasty, around the time of Zhenzong, when Song and Liao were in confrontation at the foot of Chanzhou City, someone once did such a crazy thing - a group of city guards fired a "one shot" with a three-bow crossbow.

"Three Swords Arrow" (the arrow shaft is extremely thick, has iron feathers, and is equipped with a huge triangular-edged iron arrowhead at the front, so it is named because it is about the same size as a spear used by ordinary soldiers). It will be more than 300 steps away.

Xiao Dalan, the general of the Liao army who was inspecting outside the city, shot an arrow through his chest. This unexpected incident also indirectly contributed to the establishment of the "Chanyuan Alliance" between Song and Liao.

Of course, this does not mean that the three-bow bed crossbow can really accurately snipe a humanoid target 300 steps away. The arrow that killed Xiao Daran can definitely be said to be an unprecedented strike through the ages. It is like using a cannon to hit a three-shot target.

Like a mosquito a hundred steps away, the probability is lower than winning the lottery. It is purely a case of a blind cat encountering a dead mouse.

Di Lie ignored Yang Zhechong's doubts. He acted as an observer on the side. After measuring the distance, wind speed, humidity, air resistance and other factors, he set the aiming position for Yang Zhechong. When he was about to call for launch, he slightly

He hesitated for a moment - the shooting range of the original standard ammunition is more than six thousand meters. Of course, this is only theoretical data. It is how an individual can hit such a far target. Generally, the normal sniper distance is between one thousand five hundred meters and one thousand meters.

Even though it's 1,800 meters, there are some who hit targets above 2,000 meters. That's a special case.

Nowadays, reloaded ammunition is used. Regardless of the nature of the gunpowder, the amount of powder charged, the quality of the primer propellant, the warhead and the cartridge case, there is a big gap between it and the original standard ammunition. This will inevitably affect the range and accuracy of the bullet.

However, no matter how bad it is, it should be able to shoot at 500 meters. Otherwise, this is the most advanced "artillery sniper" now and in the future. Wouldn't it be downgraded to a general rifle?

Di Lie took a deep breath and finally issued the command: "Shoot! Now!"

Poof! There was a slight vibration, and a stream of white gas spurted out from the muzzle brake. The strong recoil shocked the inexperienced Yang Zhechong to the point where he screamed. If he was not shooting in a prone position, but instead

If you shoot from a standing or kneeling position, you will probably stumble.

But at this time, Yang Zhechong could no longer care about the pain in his shoulder. He hurriedly looked at the target through the scope, and then jumped three feet high: "Hit! Hit!"

At this time, Di Lie had already grabbed the sniper rifle and quickly ran towards the target.

The human-shaped target five hundred meters away was made of five centimeters thick elm wood, lined with leather armor, and covered with a fine iron infantry armor. As a result, the shot directly penetrated the infantry target.

The armor then penetrated the leather armor, penetrated three-thirds of the way into the wood, and got stuck in the human-shaped elm wood.

Di Lie punched hard, suppressed his inner excitement, and carefully dug out the warhead with a dagger. It could be seen that the warhead had been severely deformed, and even partially exploded. There were fine copper shavings scattered around the impact point. If

If this target was a real person, even if the shot missed the vital point and did not kill him on the spot, these fine copper shavings would slowly erode his life in the years to come.

Although Yang Zhechong wanted to do it again, Di Lie didn't give him another chance.

Di Lie personally used the gun and tested it at distances of 800 meters, 1,000 meters and 1,200 meters. The final data obtained was: 800 meters, it can penetrate infantry armor and leather armor, but cannot cause damage.

An elm target; one thousand meters, it can penetrate infantry armor, but cannot penetrate leather armor; one thousand two hundred meters, it cannot penetrate infantry armor, but it can penetrate leather armor and cause damage to the target it protects.

Considering that most of the Jin Army's cavalry wore cowhide armor for lightness and speed, they were basically within the strike range of reloaded bullets. The sniper distance of 1,200 meters was the "artillery sniper" using reloaded bullets.

's limit.

"It's only 1,200 meters! That's...a distance of seven or eight hundred steps. Sure enough, compared with the original standard bullet, the effective range and lethality are more than half...a good sniper cannon will kill everyone.

Downgraded!" Di Lie shook his head and sighed.

Barrett's original bullet can penetrate an eight-millimeter-thick steel plate at 500 meters, and a four-mm-thick steel plate at 1,200 meters. The reloaded bullet created by Di Lie can penetrate infantry armor and armor at 500 meters.

Leather armor, these two types of armor combined are barely comparable to the protection of later generations of four-millimeter steel plates. In other words, the range and power have been reduced by 700 meters. And this is the result of using solid heavy bullets. Because of the lead

Although the core's bullet penetration is strong, its blocking force is poor. In other words, it is more effective in penetrating armor, but after hitting the human body, the cavity effect is poor and it is not easy to cause large-area wounds. Straightforward

Some people say that it is not that easy to get a headshot. Of course, if the distance is right, it is still possible.

Fortunately, the quality of the cartridge case comforted Di Lie a lot - usually, after each launch, the cartridge case would be slightly deformed and damaged, such as ablation of the inner wall, elongation of the mouth of the cartridge case, and inelastic deformation under gas pressure.

, the surface will naturally suffer from oxidation and wear, and the primer cap will also crack. When accumulated, the damage will eventually become unusable.

However, these strengthened bullet cases that have undergone metal mutation have remained intact after being used several times, which is really an unexpected surprise. Of course, there are also unsatisfactory aspects, that is, the farther the distance, the worse the shooting accuracy.

The further the bullet point deviates from the target. In other words, when hitting a target over a thousand meters away, it is best to hit a large area like the torso, otherwise there is a possibility of missing the target.

As a sniper, how could he miss the target when he shoots 1,200 meters? Di Lie was speechless, but there was nothing he could do. This was the twelfth century AD. It would be great if he could get a warhead for him to use. He could still count on others.

Is the performance the same as modern times? Just be content!

Yang Zhechong was already a little numb from the successive shocks. Hearing Di Lie's sigh at this moment, he could only be speechless. It was such a shocking thing to be able to snipe the armored golden soldiers seven or eight hundred steps away from a long distance.

!You are still sighing? What does it mean to be unpopular...

At this time, a neatly dressed soldier ran over from a distance. At a glance, Di Lie saw that he was a guard guarding the mountain road. Since the test firing was a highly confidential matter, Di Lie put a few heavy armored soldiers on guard.

At the entrance of the mountain road, no one is allowed to enter without being summoned. So when I saw the guard actually leaving his post and running over without asking, I knew there must be something important.

Sure enough, the guards brought important news: "The whereabouts of our captured craftsmen have been discovered, and they are all imprisoned in the Zhenzhu Dawang Village on the north bank of the Yellow River."

"Pearl King? What the hell is it? A bandit?" Di Lie was confused. Hearing this nickname, he had the same virtues as the monsters in "Journey to the West", such as the Golden Horned King, Silver Horned King and so on.

Yang Zhechong had been a prisoner of the Jin Army for almost half a year. He had seen and heard about it on weekdays and knew a little about the important figures in the Jin Army. He immediately said: "The name of King Zhenzhu is Wanyan Sheyema, and he is the commander-in-chief of the Jin Army's West Route Army.

, the eldest son of Zong Han, the left deputy marshal of the State. This man was only in his early twenties. It was said that he was very brave and had excellent cavalry. He was already the Temu Jinjun (Captain of Ten Thousands) of the Jin Army and led an army by himself.

"

"Oh, he is actually a captain of ten thousand men, and he is also the son of Zong Han. He is quite high-ranking!" Di Lie unconsciously tossed bullets up and down with one hand and rubbed his chin with the other hand, thoughtfully. Ever since he dealt with Jin Bing

, it was his first time to come into contact with the level of Captain of Ten Thousands. Needless to say, the so-called Zhenzhu King's Village must be heavily garrisoned and protected at all levels. It was more challenging than the previous Bolu Village and Guxin Village.

However, the "cannon sniper" in my hand has been resurrected, and in a short period of time, there is no need to worry about the lack of bullets. In addition, during this period, a large number of ** bags and thunderbolt bombs have been urgently stored... Hehe, even if you are an iron turtle

Shell, I also want to pry open your vest and expose the tender meat inside...

Di Lie fired up the cannon and laughed: "Let's go, let's go meet this 'steamed pig' king!"
