"Alright, then put away this composite hunting bow and bring it to the castle's treasury.”
Liu Feng was helpless. He had to hide all the treasures he had. It might not be suitable if he was too advanced.
"Young Master, the main thing is that we can't unleash the full power of this compound hunting bow. It's a waste to give it to us. It's better to give it to us with a recurve bow.”Mi Na's ears twitched as she spoke softly.
"Indeed, this compound hunting bow can only be unleashed to its maximum power by a sharpshooter.”Niu Ben nodded in agreement.
"Sharpshooter? What makes a sharpshooter?" Liu Feng was a little curious.
Mina narrowed her eyes and said in a serious tone," The elves are all natural archers. They can hit their targets from tens of meters away with ordinary longbows. If they are equipped with this composite hunting bow, they can hit people from more than 200 meters away.”
"Have you seen the elves?" Liu Feng was shocked. This was even more powerful than some pistols. It seemed that he could not underestimate the people of this world.
"I met him a few times in the Imprisoned Mountain Range.”Mi Na nodded.
Niu Ben's eyes flashed with a trace of sadness as he said," I saw it by chance in the capital.”
Liu Feng frowned, thinking that this Fairy Clan was not simple. To be able to make the two of them admire them so much, he was also very curious. Did the Fairy Clan have pointy ears?
If he had the chance, he would definitely…cough…hire a few elves to serve him. It would be good to form a team of elf sharpshooters. Perhaps this was the foreign world's version of the sniper team.
"Young Master, although the recurve bow is very good, it will take a few months for those rookie soldiers to learn how to use it and shoot accurately.”Niu Ben calmed himself down and asked the key question.
The corner of Liu Feng's mouth rose. He had already tested this question before. He asked," How many of those people can master the recurve bow in ten days?"”
Niu Ben took out a roll of sheepskin and read," There are twenty people who used to be hunters. They use bows and arrows to hunt all year round, so it shouldn't be difficult for them to master the recurve bow.”
"Very good, there are more than I expected. Then let them use the recurve bow.”
Liu Feng came to another box and took out a military crossbow. This was his ultimate weapon.
"Young Master, this is also a bow and arrow? It seems a little small." Mi Na asked curiously.
"Let's see how I do it first." Liu Feng quickly loaded the arrow and aimed at the target before pulling the trigger.
"Sou!"
The arrow immediately hit the bullseye, causing Mi Na and Niu Ben's eyes to light up.
"Young Master, let me try." Niu Ben took the crossbow and shot seven or eight arrows.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Mi Na was also having fun.
"How is it? With this military crossbow, people who didn't know how to use bows could shoot people after training for more than ten days, right?”Liu Feng laughed.
"No problem. This is relatively simple. You just need to train your arm strength.”Niu Ben said excitedly.
"Alright, I'll leave these to you. I want at least 50 archers.”
Liu Feng had 50 archers. In this era where combat power was lagging behind, he was basically invincible. Of course, the enemy couldn't outnumber him by too many times.
There were also heavy cavalry, heavy armored infantry, and so on. These were all still in his imagination. Once he increased his steel production, Liu Feng would truly be invincible.
Thinking of steel, Liu Feng was excited. He did not expect that there would be an iron mine and a coal mine not far from Xiyang City.
However, the iron-making technology in this era was backward, and the annual iron production was so low that it made one's hair stand on end.
After Liu Feng took out the Steel-Stirring Method, the ironsmiths were so excited that they almost fainted. Of course, they were now obediently helping Liu Feng to smelt steel.
Under Liu Feng's request, the production of steel increased by the day after several furnaces were opened.
Liu Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry at the discovery of coal. People in this era didn't know that coal could be burned. They still used wood, mostly charcoal.
Speaking of the discovery of coal, Liu Feng was also lucky. He saw a few naughty children playing with coal on the main road. Looking at the black coal from afar, he thought it was a gem at first. When he got closer, he realized it was coal.
After some questioning, he found out that there was an open-air natural coal mine more than ten kilometers away from Xiyang City.
With coal, it was not difficult to make iron. Liu Feng still had a few plans that required coal. Sometimes, energy represented civilization.
"Let's go! Let's go and see if those craftsmen have produced what I want.”Liu Feng left the warehouse with Mi Na, leaving Bull Running to arrange everything.
The two of them left the military camp and headed to the back mountain of the castle. There were several hidden workshops there. No, in the words of Earth, they were laboratories.
Other than the military camp, Liu Feng had invested the most gold coins into those workshops. Perhaps in the future, he would invest more and more because this was the otherworldly version of the Research Institute. Of course, it was very simple and crude now. There were only a few wooden houses and very few people.
When Liu Feng arrived, he saw a few people hugging rocks and shouting. Niu Wu was holding a long sword and blocking them.
" Get out of the way. I'm going to report to the City Lord. We succeeded, we really succeeded…"
Niu Wu was unmoved and said coldly," If there's anything, just tell me. I'll help you pass the message. Without Lord Liu Feng's order, none of you can leave."”
