The mystery of the Mongolian bow and arrow: The Mongolian cavalry archers were equivalent to modern armored forces at the time. They could maneuver 100 kilometers a day and night, combining firepower and mobility. They used bows and arrows at long distances, and once they rushed in, they were light cavalry. Such capabilities were not comparable to those of ordinary troops, so their record was the most brilliant in history.
To this day, we can speculate that most viewers have seen the video tape of Lars Anderson, in which Lars Anderson beat the enemy to a pulp with only a pair of bows and arrows, which was more satisfying than the scene of Legolas drawing a bow to kill the enemy in the extended version of "The Lord of the Rings". Although many people immediately pointed out that Anderson's abilities and performances in the video were exaggerated, this video tape still set off a new wave of archery.
Mongolian Archers: Shooting Beyond Contemporary Riflemen In history, apart from Spartans and Jedi warriors, few warriors could be as awe-inspiring as Mongolian archers on the battlefield. On the battlefield, the enemy had no place to hide in the face of Mongolian opponents, which made the Mongols dominate and dominate the battlefield. It is documented that Mongolian archers can hit targets 500 meters away. In comparison, the maximum range of the guns used by the US Army today is about 600 meters, and the lethal range is only about 300 meters. In principle, the Mongolian archers' bows and arrows pose a greater threat to people than the US Army's guns at a range of more than 400 meters.
The dragon tongue bow only exists in historical legends, and its authenticity remains to be verified, but I think some of the words are exaggerated, but it still exists. It is said that this bow uses dragon tendons as bowstrings, so the speed and explosive power are extremely high. The famous general Lu Bu of the Three Kingdoms period used this bow to shoot the halberd at the gate. Everyone should know Lu Bu. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that Lu Bu is the best among people and Red Hare is the best among horses, so it is not an exaggeration to say that Lu Bu is the most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms, but he was treacherous and was eventually captured and killed by Cao Cao.
However, the bow and arrow used by this person is not an ordinary thing. The dragon tongue bow can be said to be the best bow in the world at that time. Coupled with Lu Bu's carving, it occupies a very important position in the history of our country. Xue Rengui, the bow of Zhentian, was ordered to lead the army to fight the enemy in the mountains. Everyone knows that the Turks have always been known for their bravery and good fighting skills. Because of their extraordinary mastery of bows and arrows, they even have the deeds of bending bows and shooting eagles. At the beginning of the battle between the two sides, the Turkish army selected more than a dozen powerful warriors to challenge the Tang army. Among these dozen warriors, there were three well-known Yuanhu, Yuanlong and Yuanfeng in the Turkish army. Facing such a strong enemy, Xue Rengui was calm and composed. He took out the bow and fired three arrows in a row. At this time, Yuanhu, Yuanlong and Yuanfeng fell down. Seeing this scene, the Turkic army was in chaos and fled for their lives. What's more, seeing that the situation was over, they directly surrendered to the Tang army, and Xue Rengui became famous in one battle. The bow used by Xue Rengui was the Zhentian bow. When hearing the name of Overlord Bow, everyone will definitely think of Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu. In fact, this bow is named after Xiang Yu. This bow is what Xiang Yu carried with him, and its power is enormous.
Xiang Yu was extremely powerful. The bow body of this bow was made of black iron. It is said that the weight alone reached more than 100 pounds, and the bowstring was made of the back tendon of a black dragon. This back tendon was when Xiang Yu was 15 years old. He saw a black dragon doing evil and hurting people in Wujiang River. After hearing about this, Xiang Yu came to Wujiang River alone overnight. After fighting with the black dragon for three days and three nights, he finally killed it, skinned it and pulled out its tendons, and finally made this bow. This bow is not afraid of ice and fire, and it is difficult to be injured by swords. It has been with Xiang Yu for decades and has made great contributions to him.
