"Yes." Ye Shan nodded bitterly, "We were attacked by people from the Barbarian tribe with slings, and the prey we hit were also taken away."
The hunting team of the Mingjing tribe, in this era, the weapons in their hands are absolutely excellent, but it is impossible for Luo Ji to let them go hunting with a sling and a basket of stone bullets on their back. ill.
As for the bows and arrows that have just been developed before, it takes a lot of time to practice the bows and arrows if they want to use them well. It is better not to use them when the bow skills are too poor to shoot at all. So even now, the main weapon of the hunting team They were still stone spears and stone axes, but they did not expect such an accident to happen.
"When? When did the Bear Tribe learn to throw slings?" Similar thoughts kept flashing through Luo Ji's mind, "Is it when I used slingers to suppress hyena groups outside the forest?"
There was uncertainty in Luo Ji's tone. The structure of the sling is indeed simple, but it's not something that other barbarians can learn just by looking at it!
"By the way, Patriarch, the slings in the hands of the Barbarian Bear tribe seem to be different from those of our tribe." Looking at Luo Ji who was deep in thought, Ye Shan, who seemed to have remembered something, hastily added.
"Not the same?"
"Yes." Ye Shan nodded, "The sling in their hands seems to be made of bark rope."
There is absolutely more than one way to make a sling. In the final analysis, as long as you understand the principle, you can do whatever you want, and of course the bark rope will work, so the key here is the difficulty.
Their tribe also has bark ropes, which Luo Ji learned before going offline to check the information, and used them to replace the original tree vines. Although the weaving technique is not very complicated, it is not something that the indigenous people in ancient times could do at once. It was even more impossible for a group of ancient aborigines to think of it, let alone weave bark rope into a sling.
Thinking of this, Luo Ji's eyelids twitched, and he came to his senses, "When Liu Zheng searched for the corpses of the intruders, he didn't find any of the weapons left by them at all. Looking at the current situation, they were picked up by the people of the Barbarian tribe. "
Realizing this, Luo Ji couldn't help but stretch out his hand to rest his forehead, "I'm really entering a period of bad luck now."
Taking a deep breath, Luo Ji's eyes fell on Ye Shan again, "Anyway, you will stay in the tribe for the next few days to recover from your injuries. At the same time, I will send someone over to teach you how to use bows and arrows."
Obviously, looking at this development trend, it is estimated that the sling will spread among the barbarians in a short time. Although the sling will become less effective when used to deal with some rough-skinned and thick-skinned beasts, but using it When it comes to dealing with people, the lethality is unquestionable. One heavy blow is enough to bleed people's heads. The threat caused cannot be underestimated. Luo Ji felt that he had to prepare early.
If you want to weaken the threat of the sling, there is a simple way. The first way is to build a helmet. As long as you protect your fragile head, although the blunt attack of the stone bullet will hurt other parts of the body, it will not hurt you. Not too fatal.
The second way is to make shields, shields and armor, which are probably the two most famous armors in the cold weapon era.
However, according to Luo Ji's current situation where he has no metal ore, no forging equipment, and no forging method, don't count on metal helmets. Wolf bone masks do have a certain defensive power, but the number is limited, and there are still It can only block one side, and in this way, the shield has become his best choice in the current situation.
In the past, shields were not needed at all, so time and energy were not wasted on this matter, but now, with the proliferation of long-range weapons, the demand for shields will obviously increase significantly.
The styles and types of shields are more or less. As a fan of strategy war games, Luo Ji naturally understands them. After all, this will affect the defense and action capabilities of various arms, so let¡¯s roughly distinguish them. , can be divided into three types, large shield, medium shield and small shield
A small shield generally refers to a small round shield, also known as a fighting shield, which is very light and small in size, suitable for one-on-one single-handed combat, but not very suitable for warfare.
A large shield, commonly known as a door panel, actually looks like a door panel. It is very large and seriously affects the ability to move. It is suitable for arming heavy armor and advancing large-scale troops.
After such a simple screening, Luo Ji's next choice was ready to come out, and that was a medium-sized shield that was neither too big nor too small.
After confirming the choice, the production of the medium-sized shield does not need to bother Michelle Ye who is studying the three-bow bed crossbow at all, and it is not complicated at all.For things, just call Liu Shu and the others, prepare the materials, and start working
The shape of the entire shield is determined to be a round shield, and the material is made of wood. The main reason is that there is no other good choice. The handle is placed on the inside, and the outside side should have a curvature, which can better relieve force. At the same time, considering the overall The outer surface is covered with a layer of tough hard leather, which can not only make it stronger, but also increase its defensive ability to a certain extent.
With Luo Ji pointing from the side, a round leather shield with a simple structure was quickly formed
System prompt: Congratulations to the player 'Luo Ji' for successfully making the 'Round Leather Shield'
Not paying attention to the system prompts that sounded in his mind, Luo Ji took the finished round leather shield and gestured in his hand. Although it was made of wood, they deliberately adjusted the thickness of the shield in consideration of its defensive capabilities. It took a lot of work, so it still holds a lot of weight in your hand.
After trying the feel, Luo Ji held the round leather shield in his hand, and then put on a posture to resist the attack, "Take a stone spear and attack me, I want to test the defensive power of this leather shield .¡±
As soon as Luo Ji said these words, everyone in the Ordnance Department was taken aback on the spot. They saw that one person, at this moment, put on a posture of observing his nose, nose, nose, nose, and heart in an unusually tacit understanding and remained silent. What are you kidding? That's the leader, who dares? No one dared to test the defensive power of the leather shield.
Faced with this situation, Luo Ji was also speechless. Liu Shu and the others' concerns were well known to him, but he wasn't bragging. With the strength of the people in the Ordnance Department, he could easily overthrow several warlords by himself. indivual.
"Don't bother me, Liu Shu, it's you! Hurry up!"
Liu Shu, whose name was called out by Luo Ji, was on the point of crying, "Patriarch, you should use another person to take the shield. If you take the shield, the subordinates dare not do it!"
