Chapter 165 Bow and Arrow
After Luo Fang learned about the first four skills of Wind Track, he immediately felt that a wind magician is really cool.

You can use the wind track speed, flash step and floating shadow to move quickly, and teleport the thirteen in the streets and alleys of the city.

Think about it, one second you were on the street, and the next second you appeared at the end of the alley.

This speed is far faster than The Flash, and it's exciting to think about it.

Luo Fang continued to look behind the skills of the wind track, and he found that the fifth level of the elementary magic of the wind system is the sentry arrow.

I go!

Luo Fang was taken aback.

Because he didn't expect the fifth-level elementary wind magic to be such a sharp offensive skill.

Think about it, a junior wind magician has the basic guerrilla combat ability after owning the wind track movement trio and the wind track cyclone.

If this magician has a powerful output skill, then this wind magician is really capable of both offense and defense.

For whistle arrows, Luo Fang suddenly thought of Arrow Rain.

In 1863, Guerns, the Forbidden Curse Master of the North Bear Kingdom, said: "Bows, strings, and arrows are already very complicated tools, and the invention of these tools requires long-term accumulated experience and relatively developed intelligence."

In the era of cold weapons, bows and arrows are the most terrifying deadly weapons.

Why do you say that?
When it comes to the scenes of confrontation between ancient armies, the most common thing we see is flying arrows in the sky.

Imagine that there are 1 archers and [-] husbands in charge.

In a battle, if one arrow can take away one life, then a round of arrow rain will be a sea of ​​corpses all over the place.

It was also mentioned in an entertainment program that the invited high-level military mage also mentioned ancient bows and arrows.

He pointed out that the range of ancient bows and arrows was about 150 meters.

This distance is not very prominent, and in Luo Fang's view, it is not painful or itchy.

However, it was only after Luo Fang actually checked the historical materials that he realized that this was not the case.

When it comes to the battlefield, the basic range of the bow and arrow is indeed only 160 meters.

However, its damage cannot be underestimated.

Because some archers who are good at archery are extremely powerful, and the furthest ones can even shoot hundreds of meters.

That kind of penetrating power can take away the lives of soldiers on the battlefield every minute.

Thinking about it this way, the fifth-level whistle arrow magic of a novice wind mage must be able to bring much more damage than the fourth-level wind track cyclone.

It is conceivable that if the soldiers faced the arrow rain, they would be so desperate.

And the sentinel arrows that can create the effect of rain of arrows must be unrivaled in power when you think about it.

Contemporary people who are interested in ancient bows and arrows have done the restored ancient bows and arrows test.

With the muscle strength of a normal male, the speed of the arrow shot is about fifty meters per second.

The target of the test is an ancient heavy armor.

Within the range of bows and arrows, under normal circumstances, arrows can not only penetrate thick armor, but also penetrate the human body.

It penetrates the thick iron armor and shoots from the back of the soldier, and its lethality is staggering.

The subject of the test is also the ancient fish scale armor.

Although, fish scale armor is much harder than ordinary armor.

However, within the range of the bow and arrow, the protective effect of the fish scale armor on the human body is actually very little.

Moreover, under the simple and backward conditions of ancient times, not every soldier had the opportunity to wear armor.

Most of the soldiers only wore thin, dispensable clothes, and only a few elite soldiers wore specific defensive armor.

Imagine that the opponent's archers on the battlefield are all riding on tall horses.

Tall war horses were wreaking havoc on the battlefield, not to mention the people trampled to death under their hooves.

When charging into battle, the distance between soldiers is relatively close, and they shoot from top to bottom.

Face to face with an arrow in this way, the soldiers in front are likely to be hit critically.

From this point of view, the condescending use of whistle arrows by the wind magician must have caused huge damage to the magician.

Even if it's not a critical hit, in such a chaotic battlefield, being shot by an arrow means the loss of a life.

Although the soldier was lucky, he survived the wounded on the battlefield.

However, under such backward medical conditions and harsh environment, infection is inevitable, and the outcome of such a survival is still death.

In the long backward society, battlefields happened from time to time, so the ancients were familiar with fighting.

On the battlefield, soldiers become numb when they are used to killing and killing.

In such a situation of desperate fighting, human life is simply not worth mentioning

Therefore, when preparing for war, people at that time considered the fatality rate more than the survival rate.

Therefore, the arrows made by ancient soldiers are often very sharp.

Only in this way can the arrow be guaranteed to pass through the enemy's body with sharpness.

Moreover, those ancient arrows all have iron ore heads, which are very hard.

Even, some arrows are highly poisonous and have barbs.

If the flying arrow didn't completely pass through the soldier's body, but stuck in Liqi's body.

Then, after the soldier pulls out the arrow in his body, it is still possible to die due to secondary trauma.

In addition, there are many military books about war in ancient times.

All kinds of ancient art of war, pay attention to the strategy of deploying troops, ambush and outflanking, etc.

This means that ancient wars are not just simple head-to-head battles, but also may encounter strange battle situations.

For soldiers without any armed defense, the rain of arrows flying all over the sky is a great psychological test for them.

Moreover, the rain of arrows often comes in waves one after another. It is no wonder that the soldiers under the rain of arrows often have narrow escapes.

In such a difficult environment, it is a miracle that the soldiers survived.

Although archers often appear on the battlefield, it is very rare for archers to charge into battle on tall horses.

After all, cavalry are treasures in the army.

In ancient times, horses were very precious resources, which is why the Central Plains countries were bullied by nomadic countries all the year round.

People basically have strong soldiers and horses, but we can only be equipped with horses and horses for elite troops at best.

Generally speaking, archers are the units that stand in the back row of the army and output.

Not only the rain of arrows, but when encountering those strange shooters, the soldiers on the opposite side will face a range of hundreds of meters.

At this range, soldiers could be shot at any time.

At this time, there is a huge psychological shadow in the hearts of soldiers on the battlefield.

Under such enormous psychological pressure, ordinary people have already fled in fright.

In ancient times, soldiers who wanted to retreat before fighting were very common.

Generally speaking, archers play a supporting role in large-scale battles.In small battles, archers will play a key role in determining the direction of the battle.

After all, when there are not many enemies, the archer will strike first, and the opponent will naturally become confused immediately.

Of course, during the battle of defending the city, the archers on the city wall often took over important defensive responsibilities.

They must stand up at this time to create a glimmer of life for the brave fighters, knights and other melee units behind them.

Of course, the archer unit also has its own shortcomings.

You must know that a country's financial resources are limited, and the arrows of bows and arrows are simply consumables.

Just making arrows requires a huge amount of iron ore, so there is no need to mention the processing and production of arrows.

Therefore, generally speaking, an archer can only be equipped with about 45 arrows.

Furthermore, compared with arrows, the manufacturing process of bows is extremely complicated.

It is precisely because of these shortcomings that the number of archers in the army is often not very large.

In this way, the rain of arrows will not appear frequently on the battlefield, so soldiers don't have to worry about the rain of arrows all the time.

After Luo Fang learned the news about the ancient archers, he immediately took a deep breath.

After all, the fifth-level elementary magic whistle of the elementary magician of the wind system involves bows and arrows.
