(Thank you for the great reward of Dameng! I was a little excited. Thank you for the book friend who said "I can't tear you a hundred sisters but I can only take off my death sister". This ID is a bit familiar. Well, I am the helm leader of the previous book. Haha, welcome back.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After breakfast, most of the soldiers returned to the team to carry out their missions. The crossbow soldiers' training ground was finally deserted. Ma Han did not receive the mission. It is said that the Japanese team killed the generals and seized the flag yesterday, made great contributions, and had a special rest for one day.

Just in time, the Martin can dominate the training ground and practice freely, but the effect is not satisfactory: 120 steps, and a total of ten arrows were shot. The first three arrows were not on the target. Starting from the fourth arrow, the bow was already mature and the arrows were shot without any loss. Although less than half of the arrows hit the red heart, at least they did not leave the target. The battlefield is not a game, and you don’t need to arrow ten rings, as long as you hit the target and destroy the target. Whether it is the head, the throat, the center, or the limbs - as long as you hit it, it’s fine.

This time, the grass man target was still pierced, but after the arrow penetrated, it fell on the back of the target, which shows that its power was exhausted. From this, it can be seen that the effective armor-breaking (shield) force of the Six Stone Bow is 120 steps. To put it bluntly, this is the final level distance for sniping the enemy general.

One hundred and fifty steps, the arrows entered the wood, but they could no longer penetrate it. This is the ultimate distance to kill the armorless soldiers, but that accurate head... Marven can completely forgive himself. After all, the extremely long distance of 200 meters has never been tested with a crossbow before, and one or two of them are considered good if you hit ten times.

As for the two hundred steps, it’s out of reach!

Ma Wu was depressed, but he didn't know that the only spectator on the side had a shiny look, and he was as respectful as a god. He used a leopard bow that was no less powerful than a crossbow, aiming for a long time and firing twenty arrows in a row, as if nothing had happened. Such divine power, even if you saw it with your own eyes, you had never heard of it!

Xiao Shizi happily picked up the arrows one by one, smacking his lips: "A total of eight arrows were damaged. If you go to the military department to withdraw them, you will be criticized. It is better to spend money to buy them yourself. Anyway, the master has received so many rewards..."

Ma Han asked casually: "How much does an arrow cost?"

"Twelve cents. But I am very familiar with a branch manager of the Military Equipment Department, and I can tell the price to ten cents." Xiao Shizi proudly showed off his connections.

Ma Han smiled: "Okay, leave this to you. Put down the quiver and go play for yourself. I want to be alone."

Xiaoshizi agreed to his promise and turned around slowly, hesitating, obviously reluctant to leave.

Ma Han smiled and shook his head, thought about it, reached out and took out something from his pocket. He was about to call Xiaoshizi and said he would give him a toy. Suddenly, he thought of something, and his whole body was fixed, his eyes were filled with strange light, staring at the things in his hand.

Infrared signal transmitter! There is this device on some assault rifles and even sniper rifles. Its function is very clear, which is auxiliary aiming. What I lack now is not the shooting distance, but the accuracy, which is aiming. If, install this auxiliary aiming device at the bow handle...

Just do it. Mahan first sets the aiming position of the bow handle, then draws a spare bow string, intercepts a section, and binds the pen-shaped infrared signal transmitter. Then, the end bow is in a shooting position, observe repeatedly, and adjusts the visual range. After everything is correct, hold the fixed bow handle with your left hand and press the switch with your thumb to conduct actual measurement.

At the mouth of the 120-step straw man bullseye, a red dot the size of a fingernail appears clearly. Unlike the soybean-sized shooting point of the general assault rifle infrared device, the shooting point of the infrared signal transmitter is as big as a cent coin, which is three times larger than the general injection point, because its purpose is to allow searchers to see more clearly. Therefore, with the sharp eyes of the horse-hair eagle, the red dot can still be vaguely seen outside of 120 steps.

Ma Wu felt excited. Of course, this does not mean that if you fire at this red dot, you will definitely hit the target. He also needs to calculate the angle, because long-range shooting, the trajectory of the arrow is not a straight line, but an arc. Medium and short-range shooting is a straight line, but two parallel lines cannot intersect. Therefore, the arrow he shot will never hit the red dot, but will only hit the red dot above. As for whether to hit one inch or two inches above the red dot, look at the angle adjusted by the arrow.

After repeated calculations, the Martin General's infrared ray shooting point moved down by about an inch, and then loosened the strings.

Buzz, the bow and strings trembled violently, and the arrows went away like lightning.

True! The man is in the mouth of the bullseye.

Therefore, a jaw-dropping scene is taking place on the silent Youzhou crossbow soldiers’ training ground:

A sergeant holding a large bow and carrying a quiver kept running, firing at the grass man's target as he ran: eighty-step target was broken, hundred-step target turned, one hundred-step target hit the red heart, one hundred-step target hit the target without any flaws, two hundred-step target...

"It's all on the target! Master, it's all on the target!" Xiaoshizi jumped all the way, and the arrow in his arms fell all over the floor.

"It's just that I didn't take off the target." Ma Han squinted his eyes and looked at the tiny grass man target two hundred steps away, and sighed softly, "It's a pity that although the infrared shooting point can be precisely aimed, it can't see clearly when you have enough eyesight! However, before the battle formation, there really is no need to aim, as long as the shooting range is long enough. Well, if you can have a ten-stone bow, hehe..."

...

It was another morning, and the first ray of sunlight shone into the tent through the gaps in the curtain. Ma Han was already dressed neatly, lifted the curtain and took a deep breath of the air with a faint smell of blood. This was the fourth day of Ma Han's arrival in the Three Kingdoms era. He didn't know what this day meant to him, to this local war, and even to the entire history of the Three Kingdoms. He only knew that from this moment on, he would no longer let anyone threaten his life.

Any danger must be eliminated from a hundred steps away.

In front of the tent, Xiao Shizi was concentrating on wearing armor for the owner, while Ma Han was checking for the forty armor-breaking heavy arrows that Xiao Shizi bought for him from the Military Weapons Bureau.

Each scout soldier of the Scout Qu is equipped with two bags of twenty-four feather arrows, most of which are ordinary flat-blade arrows with average armor-breaking power. The twenty-four arrows of the Marven have been damaged by training yesterday, so they naturally have to be supplemented. Considering that their main weapon in the future is bows and arrows, the Marven's requirements for arrows must not only be more than the conventional quantity, but also have a unique quality.

Anyway, I have the money and items rewarded by Gongsun Zan, which is worth tens of thousands of yuan, and there is no need to spend money in the military camp. I don’t need to modify the military weapon to improve my life protection, but where else can I use it?

Mahan bought forty triangular armor-breaking arrows and two scattered bags at a high price of fifty dollars. In this way, others only hung two scattered arrows on both sides of the saddle, while he hung four.

After the inspection results, Ma Han was quite satisfied: the shaft was straight and there was no joint, and the paint was very bright; the tail feathers were newly tufted, and the feathers were smooth and not tied; the triangular arrowheads were polished and shiny, the edges were parallel, and there was almost no error in the naked eye. Such a good arrow was not expensive for fifty dollars.

While checking, Xiao Shizi laughed and said, "Master, those two female slaves are here."

As soon as Ma Han raised his eyes, he saw that there were two women wearing pointed felt hats and single jackets saluting him from afar and peeking at him from time to time.

When Ma Han saw these two women, Ma Han smiled bitterly. These two Wuwan women were slaves who were rewarded to him. Gongsun Zan only cares about the reward. As for what Ma Han used for, it was his own business.

As one of the leaders of the American Imperial Gang, Ma Han didn't have too many women around him, including all kinds of skin colors, identities, and styles. After seeing all the faces, his taste and grade were naturally gained, and his general appearance was easy to see. However, when he first heard the news of the arrival of the two women of the Maowan who were rewarded, Ma Han was a little excited and even more vaguely looking forward to it, wanting to see what the woman of this nation that had long disappeared in later generations looked like.

The truth is shattering. The man can tolerate a little inferior appearance and can tolerate all kinds of strange hairstyles for women, such as loose braids, short hair, flat heads, and even bald heads. However, if you are a good woman, what's the point of getting a haircut?

The so-called hair is the exclusive hairstyle of Hu people. They shave it in the middle of their foreheads and leave a circle of hair around them, either braided or loose. The Hu men and women in Mobei, such as Wuhuan, Xianbei, etc., have this hairstyle. It’s not a big deal for men to keep this hairstyle, but women are like this... There is no need to see where they need to be seen, just thinking about it is disgusting enough.

When Ma Han saw it, he immediately drove him out of his tent. Although the quarantine officer who sent the female slaves repeatedly explained that once the Wuwan woman got married, she would have her hair. In other words, these two female slaves were unmarried and were gifted by the Marquis of Ji. But how could her appetite be improved? In the end, the two female slaves had to set up a different tent next to herd and milk Ma Han's sheep, clean clothes, and be used as ordinary slaves.

Ma Han avoided the hot gazes projected by the two female slaves with black faces and strong bodies, and got on the saddle and ran towards Xiying.

There is an area that is smoky and fire-burning all day long at the left corner of Xiying, which is the Youzhou Army’s military weapon maintenance office. There are hundreds of military craftsmen stationed here, responsible for repairing military armor, repairing saddles, polishing blades, repairing shields, etc. for the soldiers.

When Ma Han passed through the camp, his ears were full of jingling irons, so he had to increase his voice and shouted at one of the tents: "Lao Yu! Lao Yu! Have you prepared what I want?"

A middle-aged strong man with a black face and a shaved beard appeared in the tent. When he saw Ma Han, he grinned and showed a big yellow-colored teeth: "Oh, it's Ma Bai Zheng, what you want is done. I, Lao Yu, have pushed back several pieces of military armor repair work, and made this thing for hundreds of generals. I am afraid that I will be clamored by those soldiers..."

Ma Han dismounted from the horse's legs and took out three wuzhu coins from the mattress beside the saddle, and threw them to Lao Yu: "You won't lose any money, take out the things quickly."

Lao Yu deliberately told the embarrassment, but in fact he wanted to get more rewards. Three thousand coins plus five hundred coins yesterday's deposit, which was 500 cents more than the price he had negotiated before, which was considered a pay attention to foreign wealth. He happily entered the tent, and after a while, he brought out a heavy burden.

Ma Han took it and opened it, nodded, put the bag on the horse, rolled over the horse, and slapped the horse away. When passing by Lao Yu's forging furnace, he picked up the small hammer beside the furnace and shook it at Lao Yu: "I borrow your hammer for you."

Lao Yu widened his mouth with both hands and shouted at Ma Han's back: "Take my equipment to delay my working hours, and you will have to pay at least ten yuan of lost work fees!"

Ma Han waved his hand without looking back and drove away.

On the cavalry training ground, the horse was riding a horse and briskly, making some tongue-in-mouthing movements from time to time: for example, hiding back and hiding back, leaving the saddle, and fitting on the horse's neck, just like a later equestrian, half of his body was supported high, galloping, and riding the horse as if flying.

The reason why he could do such a move was simple. He installed stirrups - real stirrups, not two leather ropes or rope stirrups.

After fighting with Zhao Yun yesterday, Ma Han realized this important problem. Without stirrups, it would take at least half a year to ride freely like the scouts. If you want to do it like the white horse, it would probably not be possible for a year or two. So he immediately found the military weapon maintenance site, drew two stirrups in shapes, and asked if it could be created as soon as possible.

Stirrups are basically not technical. Although Lao Yu is a little greedy, his craftsmanship is really good. He can guarantee that he can be taken the next day. Ma Han then asked to nail the horses to the horses, but Lao Yu was stunned.

Ma Han was very surprised. Is there no horseshoe in this era?

In fact, there is really not! According to historical development, the first horse harness appeared was the horse chew, and then the saddle. Moreover, the saddle in the Three Kingdoms period had developed quite well. The advanced form of the saddle, the Gaoqiao saddle, had appeared. The next one was stirrup, which was invented around the Jin Dynasty, and the horseshoe appeared the latest. Some believed it was in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and some believed it was in the Yuan Dynasty... No matter which view, it was recognized that the horseshoe appeared after the stirrup, and at this time, there was no trace of stirrups in the Three Kingdoms period.

So Mahan customized six horseshoes (two spares, just like a car spare tire). Lao Yu couldn't figure out what these strange-shaped iron lumps are for a while, and he didn't know the significance of these two things. Anyway, if you have money, you will work, so why don't you do anything else?

With stirrups, the effect is significant. Ma Han probably uses his riding foundation to strengthen his training for two or three months. Even if he can't compare with Zhao Yun, at least he will never have a problem joining Baima Yi.

The horseshoe is also the top priority. Once a war horse breaks its hooves, it basically bids farewell to the battlefield, and it is not even qualified to be a pack horse. The war horse is definitely one of the most important war resources. A small horseshoe can save many war horses and pack horses.

The horse man had the experience of nailing horseshoes for his treasures. He planned to nail horseshoes for his mounts by himself. But just when he took out the knife, hammer, nails and other tools, suddenly, a burst of rapid call of horns spread throughout the military camp, and the Youzhou military camp suddenly became boiling.

After just two days of silence, the Jizhou army broke the deadlock and launched an attack. The second phase of the Battle of Jieqiao began.
