Why is crossbow more powerful than bow? They are all long-range cold weapons and powerful.

Because the range and power of crossbows are stronger than bows, the requirements for archers are reduced, so it is easier to train and cultivate than archers.

The traditional bow uses the arm strength to open the bow, while the crossbow can use the strength of the legs and waist when winding, so the tension is greater and the range and power are stronger than the bow. Moreover, after the crossbow is wound, the archer does not need to pull the string for a long time, which saves physical strength and reduces the strength requirements for the archer. The crossbow is also equipped with aiming devices such as Wangshan, which is more accurate than the bow and easier to train archers.
