Nog wapens

'n Ou geweer, 'n kanon en 'n trebuchet. Die definisie van 'n trebuchet is:

"A trebuchet (occasionally referred to as a trebucket) is a medieval siege engine, a weapon employed either to smash masonry walls or to throw projectiles over them.
The trebuchet is thought to have been invented in China between the 5th and 3rd centuries BC. The counterweight trebuchet evolved from the simpler Chinese traction trebuchet. The device reached Europe around AD 500. It could fling three hundred pound (140 kg) projectiles at high speeds into an enemy fortification, quickly obliterating walls and defenses. Occasionally it was used to throw the bodies of people and animals who had died from various diseases including the black plague over castle walls, in an attempt to infect the people under siege. Trebuchets were far more accurate than other forms of medieval catapults."

Hulle skiet soms die trebuchet, maar net in hoogseisoen. Ons was ongelukkig daar in laagseisoen en kon dit dus nie in aksie te siene kry nie.
