Compared with the setbacks in the development of bows and arrows, the development of new weapons here went very smoothly. It was so smooth that Luo Ji made the first sample in less than an hour.

That's right, after Luo Ji took a step back, the new weapon he chose to make was a sling! To put it simply, it's a slinger. This is probably the oldest long-range weapon in human civilization, right?

In ancient times, he didn't know how humans made slings, nor had he studied them. However, the structure and production of slings were obviously much simpler than bows and arrows. He asked people to find a piece of tough animal skin the size of a palm and four pieces to serve as

Considering the strength of the animal tendons of the rope, he weaved two animal tendons into one in a spiral weaving method, and then used a stone spear to forcefully poke four small holes on the edge of the animal skin, one on each side, and weaved the braided animal tendons into one piece.

After the tendons are passed through the small holes and tied with knots, a simple sling is completed.

System prompt: Congratulations to the player 'Luo Ji' for successfully making the 'Sling' and gaining 30 civilization points and 3 military points.

The system's reminder made Luo Ji more confident. With the newly completed sling, he walked out of the tribe with great interest. He had to try the new weapon to find out whether it worked or not.

The five people from the Ordnance Department followed one after another. They were obviously very curious about the simple but never-seen new weapon in the hands of their clan leader.

On the way to the experimental site, Luo Ji did not leave the five of them idle. Along the way, he collected many stones of suitable sizes to use as ammunition for the slings. At the same time, he also called over Luo Yong, Zhao Pan and others who were training.

After all, the sling he made was for the warriors in the tribe. However, their tribe was currently short of manpower, and Luo Ji could not increase the number of tribe warriors in a short period of time.

In this way, the candidates for the slingers can only be selected from the existing tribal warriors. However, four of the wolf warriors are on the Black Rock Tribe, so there are currently only fourteen warriors on the Mirror Tribe.

After the rigorous training some time ago, the fourteen tribal warriors finally felt somewhat disciplined and well-trained. They stood in a neat row, giving people a much more reliable feeling.

No nonsense, Luo Ji went to the battle to demonstrate it in person. Who among this group of people was he the only one who had done so much research on this newly made sling?

He held one end of the sling in his hand and placed a round stone about the size of a tennis ball on the hide. To be honest, Luo Ji was quite nervous. He had never actually used the sling.

, if he misses and injures himself by mistake, wouldn’t he, the patriarch, be very embarrassed?

"Calm down." Luo Ji comforted himself in his mind and after adjusting his breathing at will, Luo Ji quickly calmed down. "It should be based on the same principle as pen spinning. Anyway, it uses the centrifugal force of rotation..."

At this thought, Luo Ji gently shook the hand holding the sling twice, trying to feel it. Then he exerted force, and the sling in his hand suddenly spun rapidly, making bursts of whistling sounds.

Luo Ji's movement caused a burst of exclamations from the people behind him, and pairs of curious eyes suddenly focused on the spinning sling.

Without further delay, with the feeling of dying early and being reborn early, Luo Ji saw an opportunity and swung the sling that was spinning rapidly in his hand far away! Placed it on the animal hide.

The stone suddenly flew out with a 'swipe' sound.

His strength was still good, and with the blessing of centrifugal force, the stone flew very far. Seeing this, Luo Ji finally breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time secretly felt grateful that he had done so before.

He didn't seek death by setting a target opposite him, otherwise his accuracy would have made him burst into tears.

"Uh-huh!" He coughed heavily, and Luo Ji turned around seriously. Feeling the eyes full of surprise, excitement and admiration, his self-esteem was greatly satisfied. "Anyway, that's it. Who wants to try it?"

one time?"

"Me, me!" Upon hearing this, Luo Yong, who had been eager to try it for a long time, quickly expressed that he wanted to try it.

Luo Ji didn't care. He directly handed the sling in his hand to Luo Yong. After explaining the key points of the operation to him, he let him try it himself.

The difficulty of the sling itself is how to control the aim well so as to hit the target relatively accurately. It is not too difficult to just throw the stone projectile.

After Luo Yong placed the stone, he smoothly made the sling spin. He was very powerful, and just by swinging the sling, he felt astonishingly powerful. However, before Luo Ji could sigh for a second,

At that time, there was only a muffled sound of "bang", and the stone bullet hit the ground with an astonishing power, directly creating a small crater as big as the mouth of a bowl. The visual range was about...

Well, five meters...

"Pfft!" At that moment, Luo Ji couldn't hold it back at all and accidentally laughed out loud.

Luo Yong's face turned red on the spot. Although Luo Ji did not explain the standard, looking at the distance that the stone bullet flew when Luo Ji demonstrated before, and looking at him again, anyone could see what he had just done.

How bad it is to play.

As a long-range weapon, what kind of trouble is it with a range of about five meters? It's better to just charge forward with a stone spear and fight in close combat.

The smile on his face faded slightly. Luo Ji stepped forward and patted Luo Yong on the shoulder, "Okay, let's change to the next one. Everyone, come over and get familiar with each other. Then I will choose four or five of you to use."

The best people specialize in this sling."

Luo Yong's problem at that time was obviously that he used too much force and failed to see the timing correctly, so he shot a shooting range that was simply hilarious. But it didn't matter. As a fierce general who can charge in the front row, Luo Yong

Ji Ke had absolutely no intention of letting Luo Yong change his profession to a slinger, but it was obviously unreasonable not to let him try, so he took advantage of the moment just now to get him to give up that idea.

After appeasing Luo Yong for a while and publicly stating that both slingers and melee fighters had their own advantages and that there was no strong or weak distinction, Luo Ji turned around and asked the people in the Ordnance Department to follow this pattern.

A few slings were brought out, and then they were left to practice on their own. Although the development of the tribe has been on the right track recently, his daily work is still not easy.

After such a long time, almost half of the defensive fortifications outside the Mingjing tribe have been built. As the clan leader, it is time for him to go back and continue to fight against his 'pulley block'. At the same time, the design of the entire city gate must be drawn quickly.
Chapter completed!
