Total war three kingdoms trebuchet3/25/2023 ![]() ![]() It is characterized by making full use of the elastic potential energy provided by the three large bows, thereby obtaining extremely long range and great destructive power. In the Three Kingdoms period, the bed crossbow was a very common large-scale siege weapon, but the image of the bed crossbow in the game, at first glance, it is known that it is the big killer of the Northern Song Dynasty 800 years later-the three bow bed crossbow. Not all bed crossbows are called "three-bow bed crossbow"Įxcept for the catapult, the other big mechanical killer in the Three Kingdoms is the bed crossbow. Later, because it was not practical, it stopped. Then slowly stir faster and faster, at the limit speed, pull the knife to cut the rope and let the stone fly out. The principle is to make a wind wheel disk, which is covered with stones, and the person in the center stirs by the principle of leverage. Wei Dynasty Minister Ma Jun also invented a continuous-fire trebuchet. Cao Cao destroyed Yuan Shao's arrow tower with a catapult and named the catapult "Thunderbolt." Later, Sima Yi attacked Gongsun Yuan and Sima Zhao attacked Shouchun both used trebuchets extensively. During the Battle of Guandu in 200, Yuan Shao built a rammed arrow tower to attack Cao Cao's camp. In the Three Kingdoms period, the catapult was further developed and became a thunderbolt. "Flying stone weighs twelve kilograms, it is a machine, and it travels three hundred steps." According to the "Fan Xin Art of War" in the Spring and Autumn Period: Compared with the Western world at that time, the Chinese manpower trebuchets are still at the advanced level in the world (Westerners tend to use the torsion trebuchets with animal tendons because of the large number of cattle and sheep). The human trebuchet of the Three Kingdoms eraĪlthough the Three Kingdoms era did not have a counterweight trebuchet such a devastating weapon, there is no shortage of simple human trebuchets at that time. It can be seen that under the firepower of counterweight trebuchets, any medieval castle cannot escape the fate of destruction. Under the powerful attack of the wolf, Sterling Castle was beaten to pieces. He forced the Scots to stay in the castle and relaunched the siege. But at that time Edward I was eager to try the newly built trebuchet and refused to accept surrender. ![]() Facing a trebuchet almost as tall as the castle, the Scottish army stationed in the castle had to surrender. In 1304, in a campaign to conquer Scotland, King Edward I of England ordered his engineers to build a giant trebuchet before the siege of Stirling Castle, which was the largest trebuchet ever made by -the wolf.

Good at making artillery, and in the eighth year of Yuan Dynasty, with Alao Wading to the capital. "Yi Si Ma Yin, Hui Hui clan, Xu Liren in the Western Regions. According to the "Yi Si Ma Yin Biography": So how powerful is the counterweight trebuchet? It can be said that before the middle of the 12th century, the concept of counterweight trebuchets did not exist in the world. In the siege of Castelnuovo Bocca d'Adda in 1199, the German document appeared in German literature, which was different from the previous human trebuchet Catapult. According to his description, the initial placement of stones by the catapult might be just to reduce manpower, but he did not expect that a boulder would be equivalent to "50 strong men". The book records a kind of trebuchet, which is different from the previous purely manual lever pulling, but is pulled by counterweight stones. The earliest record of the counterweight trebuchet was mentioned by Madi Ben Ali Al of the Middle East in a military manual compiled for Saladin Sultan in 1187. Three-country catapult is not fake, but the counterweight catapult configured in the game is purely a crossing weapon. However, were there really these two ancient weapons in the Three Kingdoms period?Ĭounterweight catapult-China's "returning gun" When a counterweight catapult cannonball and a three-bow bed crossbow giant arrow hit the wall, it is powerful People can't help but sigh the endless wisdom of the ancients. The exquisite war scenes are beyond the reach of most games, especially the siege scenes.
