    This period of history flashed through Ke Suo's mind. Seeing the prince's gloomy face and depressed mood, he pondered for a moment and said tentatively: "Your Majesty, if you really want to shoot down the four giant eagles, there is nothing you can do" "Oh.  !" The prince turned his head and looked at Ke Suo doubtfully.  Licking his chapped lips, Ke Suo gestured with his hands to shape the shape of something, "I don't know, have you ever heard of the Song Dynasty's bed crossbow?" The prince nodded, "I have not only heard of it, but also seen it with my own eyes.  , That kind of bed crossbow is indeed powerful, not only a weapon for defending the city, but also for attacking the city, that kind of bed crossbow can be used." Ke Suo nodded, and he said: "Although the people of the Song Dynasty are weak, they are indeed creative.  We have many tools that are unimaginable in the Great Jin Kingdom, and this bed crossbow is one of them. That kind of bed crossbow not only has a longer range, but also has a powerful attack, and can be fired in multiple directions." After listening to Ke Suo's words, the prince just nodded.  But she still looked at him in confusion, obviously not knowing what he was doing when he suddenly mentioned the bed crossbow.  But Ke Suo continued: "Your Majesty, if you want to shoot down those four big eagles, this crossbow will be a big killer!" "Oh, what should I say?" The prince looked at Ke Suo, "I  Although I know that the bed crossbow has a long range, it is still a bit difficult to shoot down the big eagle in the sky." Ke Suo nodded and continued: "What I want to tell the prince now is the bed crossbow of the Song Dynasty.  It was a new type of crossbow machine, called the three-bow crossbow. There was a saying of "eight-oxen crossbow", which meant that it took the strength of eight oxen to pull the crossbow and shoot the crossbow arrows, which could even reach the city.  Penetration, and most importantly, its range is the longest in history, and it is said that it can reach a thousand steps! "Thousand steps, according to the measurement unit of the Song Dynasty, one step is approximately equal to 1.536 meters, which is a thousand steps away!  At 1536 meters!  "Thousand steps?!" The prince's face was shocked, and his eyes were full of disbelief.  Over there, Ke Suo talked eloquently: "The rumors are indeed true, but regardless of whether the Song Dynasty's three-bow bed crossbow has the rumored range, it is undisputed that the bed crossbow is definitely better than any archer of our grassland nation.  To shoot far, to deal with the giant eagle in the sky, even a sharpshooter can only feel helpless at a long distance, and the Song Dynasty bed crossbow might come in handy!" The prince nodded, "Although it's not true!  I have seen the power of that kind of bed crossbow, but after hearing what you said, I have an idea. After conquering the Song Dynasty, I will try to seize as many of these bed crossbows as possible, not to mention how these bed crossbows can be used for siege.  It¡¯s also incredibly effective against the giant eagles in the grassland!¡± ¡°Your Majesty is wise!¡± ¡°It¡¯s a pity that we don¡¯t have that kind of bed crossbow around now, otherwise I would have been able to shoot down the four giant eagles in the sky!¡±  I can't help but feel a little lost.  Na Kesuo over there immediately comforted him: "My lord, don't be disappointed. Although the bed crossbow of the Song Dynasty sounds mysterious, our cavalry of the Kingdom of Jin are invincible. I don't know how many cities have been destroyed by this time. That kind of bed crossbow is just terrifying."  It has already fallen into the hands of our army." The prince's eyes lit up and he nodded, "That's right. Let's rush to the front line immediately. Maybe we can see the power of that bed crossbow with our own eyes. Then  " Having said this, the prince looked back at the four giant eagles that were flying towards the sky, and said: "If I encounter these four giant eagles again next time, I will definitely find a way to shoot them down"?  ¡­ On the ground, the prince led the Jin cavalry to rush towards the front line. In the sky, Ye Yang and Sha Diao also happened to pass by this battlefield.  ¡­ ¡­ As soon as the prince arrived at the front line, he was not eager to wait for the generals to meet and greet him, so he proposed to see the big Song Dynasty bed crossbow.  When that huge bed crossbow was delivered to him, his face turned red. He couldn't wait to see the power of this bed crossbow. More importantly, he had already thought of using this bed crossbow to hunt on the prairie.  .  And coincidentally, Ye Yang and Silly Diao also appeared in the sky where the Song and Jin wars took place.  The prince was so excited that he could not be more excited. I didn¡¯t expect these four giant eagles to fly so leisurely. They were still lingering in the sky at this time and did not leave without permission. God help me!  In fact, it was Ye Yang who also discovered the war that broke out on the ground. Out of curiosity, he fell here and stayed here.  Ye Yang was definitely not able to witness the Great War between Song and Jin in his previous life, but in this life, even if it was just a parallel world, the course of history was generally the same.  In order to observe the war at close range, Ye Yang even took the initiative to fly down. Of course, he was still far away from the ground, at least above a thousand meters. This is the height that almost all eagles are accustomed to flying in the sky. No matter how high it is, it is not too big.  Necessary, after all, we are not in a hurry.  At this time, the person over there who just got the bed crossbowIn his excitement, he decided to ask Ke Suo and others to show him whether the bed crossbow had the legendary magic. Of course, the most important thing was that he had always remembered the death of his aunt thirty years ago.  In his heart, he had instinctive hatred and anger for the giant eagle. When he was in the prairie, he organized a team to hunt the giant eagle more than once. Because of this, he received awards from the Khan. Without him, in the prairie, eagle shooting was the most popular.  Every man's dream, a prince who can hunt giant eagles, is the most heroic representative no matter how you look at it.  Ye Yang had just flown by, not noticing that someone on the ground was already peeping at him and even preparing to shoot him.  "Set up the crossbow and prepare the manpower. I will shoot down the big eagle in the sky today and give you the first gift for the war against the Song Dynasty!" The prince said with excitement and passion.  Because of the distance and the limitation of sight, the prince could not accurately confirm Ye Yang's body shape, so he did not know that Ye Yang was not just a big eagle, but a giant eagle!  Over there, Ke Suo immediately asked people to prepare. To pull the three-bow crossbow, thirty people were needed. Soon, the Jin cavalry dismounted one after another.  There are three crossbows in total. Person No. 90 pulls the crossbow with his bare hands, just waiting for the prince over there to give the order.  After roughly estimating the distance, Ke Suo nodded towards the prince, then saw the prince wave his hand, "Shoot!" Phew!  call out!  call out!  The crossbow arrows were coming, and Ye Yang soon heard something strange. He looked down and saw several crossbow arrows as big as javelins shooting towards him. He shrank his pupils, growled low, and dodged sideways.  Over there, the calls of the silly eagle and the two white eagles rang out at the same time.  They are also the targets of crossbows!  Damn it! ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Ye Yang let out an angry roar, spread his wings, and violently flapped away the six crossbow arrows that were aimed at the silly eagle and the two white eagles. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Duh!  Duh!  The falling crossbow arrow pierced the big tree on the ground in a parabola, and even knocked down the big tree.  It¡¯s as big as a javelin, and its impact is astonishing!  As far as the eye could see, Ye Yang quickly saw the ant-like Jin Cavalry on the ground!  At the same time, he also saw the bed crossbow that was set up.  It¡¯s just that this thing shot such a high distance just now, almost hurting them.  Unforgivable!  Originally, Ye Yang only planned to observe this battle. After all, the Song-Jin War was famous in history. Seeing it with his own eyes would not be a waste of time. Who knows, the people in the Jin Kingdom over there don't know whether their heads are convulsed or not.  He actually took the initiative to attack him with a bed crossbow!  At this time, he had no idea that as early as thirty years ago, he had already formed a grudge against the grassland people, and the prince on the ground even had a murderous grudge against him.  " However, Ye Yang didn't know that the prince didn't know him. It was just a coincidence, driven by hatred, and hatred of all eagles that led to this strange attack and shooting.  Angry Ye Yang vowed to kill the audacious prince on the ground and massacre the arrogant and domineering golden soldiers.  His original intention was also changed by the prince on the ground whose head was definitely kicked by a mule. It was obviously impossible for him to stay out of this Song-Jin war!  Since it is impossible, then just participate in person, or at worst, use a pair of wings to disrupt this war (The Three-Bow Crossbow of the Song Dynasty is very controversial. Encyclopedias, TV commentators and related historical records have recorded a thousand-step range.  It can reach a distance of more than 1,500 meters, but there is a paragraph in the Wu Jing that introduces this kind of bed crossbow, but the approximate range is only more than 300-500 meters. There are also folk experiments using bed crossbows left over from the Song Dynasty to prove that the range is only a few hundred meters.  Some people who have studied physics and are accustomed to using scientific explanations have suggested that the range of this bed crossbow is only 160-200 meters. Well, the introduction in the martial arts scriptures needs to be verified, and the folk experiment is even more questionable.  Do you think the bed crossbows used in warfare in the Song Dynasty will appear randomly among the people? As for the physical science and so on, everyone should try to ignore it. There are too many things in this world that science cannot explain. The most important thing is, let me say something.  The words are - don't overly question the IQ of the ancients and their development and creativity, especially in the Song Dynasty, which was the most technologically advanced country in ancient Chinese history.  After more than two hundred years, who said that the range of the bed crossbow of the Song Dynasty cannot reach the modern level? Well, there are so many explanations, just for some textual research parties not to delve too deeply into the bed crossbow mentioned in this book. Another reason is also this  The bed crossbow is indeed controversial. Also, that¡¯s it for today. Well, let me take a break and think about the plot behind it)
