There were more than a dozen Islan-style swords in the chest, most of which were probably the trophies of the wars between European countries and the Ottoman Turks, although it was not excluded that they had been obtained from other sources.

It looks like all the traditional long knives of the Turkish Ottoman Empire - for example, the one taken out by Guan Xingquan is the largest "Kili knife" in the traditional Turkish long knife.

This long knife with outstanding armor-piercing ability was very common in the Ottoman Empire, and its shape was very distinctive, the blade became wider the further you went to the tip, and the knife shape suddenly widened at the front third of the blade, and then the front end became a double-edged blade, that is, a sword tip came out of the front of the knife.

It is about one meter long, the curve is not large, the thickness of the blade is eight or nine millimeters, and the weight is about 2 kilograms. Zhang Nan took two knives in his hand and gestured, feeling that the head of the knife body was slightly heavier, and it was estimated that a knife could have a bit of a tomahawk slashing effect, and it was estimated that these knight armors with amazing protection in the carriage could not be completely blocked.

Moreover, the arc of the blade is not large, the hardness, toughness, and sharpness of the tip of the knife are first-class, and it can also stab and attack directly when fighting, and the knight armor with a thickness of 1.5 to 5 mm is stronger than leather armor in front of it.

However, the weight of this knife is a bit too heavy for Zhang Nan, lack of training, and the strength of his arm is slightly insufficient. But Boss Guan felt that this was very convenient: what he didn't say, no matter if there was a silver wire inlaid text in the middle of the back of the knife, even if it used to be the saber of any sultan, it belonged to Guan Xingquan.

Xiang Weirong also likes long knives, he is forty years old this year, and this writing about Long Island can remind him of the days when he was a militia at the age of seventeen or eighteen when he patrolled the commune with a cavalry knife and a 79 rifle on his back, and people will feel a little younger.

He took a fancy to a "para long knife", which was also a common knife type in the Ottoman Empire, slightly shorter than the Kili knife, and lighter in weight. The knife body has a blood groove, the tip of the knife is widened, there is a reverse blade on the back of the knife, the handguard is cross-shaped, and the handle of the knife has to be bent downward, which can prevent it from getting out of the hand in the chopping.

The Para knife can't deal with heavily armored opponents, but in the era of cold weapons, it's an absolute nightmare for light armor and unarmored enemies!

Sharp and abnormal, strange attacks, and it is not uncommon to cut everyone in half with a single knife.

The brother-in-law likes knives, he can pick them at will, and he even gives them a sword casually under the mountain, and these Ottoman nobles have the same saber, and the brother-in-law likes it.

Zhang Nan also picked a handful of himself and planned to take it out first, compared to Guan Xingquan and Xiang Weirong had to choose, this knife is relatively short, this is the handle of the Yatcan knife: this single-edged knife shape is very special, because the blade of the general type of scimitar is facing outward, while the blade of the Yatcan is facing inward, arcing in the direction of the blade, and the center of gravity is forward when chopping, and the cutting force is great.

Nepalese doglegs are also similar designs, but in terms of shape, steel type and decoration...

Don't say it, it's unfair to the dog's leg if you talk too much, anyway, Zhang Nan will never collect a Nepalese dog's leg, that thing will be used as a woodcutter.

The Yatkan knife is very easy to carry, just put it in the scabbard and insert it horizontally into the waist: one of the characteristics of this knife is that there is no handguard, not only the entire blade can be inserted into the scabbard, but even part of the grip can be inserted into the scabbard, leaving only a part of the grip outside, which is very convenient to carry.

Zhang Nan also measured it with a tape measure, this knife is relatively long in the Yatkan knife, with a total length of 78 cm, a blade length of 62 cm, a blade width of 3.7 cm, a thickness of 8.5 mm, and a sheath weighing about a kilogram.

The handle of the knife feels comfortable in the hand, very handy, and there is a bit of a desire to cut something - this knife can slightly affect the feeling of people, absolutely good knife!

The blade is slightly oxidized and a very small amount of thin rust spots, the natural pulp is perfect and natural, the texture of the blade is like a ribbon, and there is a *** style pattern inlaid with gold wire in the middle of the blade.

The end of the blade, the handguard and the sides of the handle are wrapped in a thin floral motif, high-relief decorated gold plate, and the handle looks like the horns of some animal, and the dots are inlaid with a flower vine pattern in gold. As for the scabbard, there are no cheesy gem-encrusted stones, but they are also wrapped in gold sheets at the head and tail with a high relief technique.

At least 300 years of history, it is rare to be so well preserved.

Don't look at it as short, it's easy to cut off people's heads!

The monetary value of the things in this carriage is not comparable to a wagon of gold, but Zhang Nan is even happier than getting a cart of gold, "Ha, my castle finally has some armor and cold weapons with enough weight!"

A few other people smiled, all of them knew that Zhang Nan had made a lot of top-notch European antique furniture and furnishings in the past year, which were all needed in the castle in the future: you have seen a lot of European castles, and if there are not a few matching knight armor as furnishings in those castles, you are embarrassed to take your friends to visit!

That's what I want.

This is the same as the Baylor Mansion in the capital: if there are not a few pieces of rosewood furniture from the Qing Dynasty, Jingdezhen official kilns, and objects flowing out of the palace to support the façade, are you embarrassed to say that you live in Baylor Mansion?

It's matched, and that's a faint taste of that...

This is not a matter of money, Baylor House can only use Chinese goods, and the use of Western antique furniture is;

The style of painting is wrong!

Here is almost a full carriage of armor and cold weapons, and there are several very large oil paintings on the walls of the carriage. Draw out a horizontal painting nearly 3 meters long and more than a meter high, in the middle of a pile of swords and armor, which is more important than the knightly armor of the kings according to the way the carriage is guarded.

Unwrap the brown paper and see what the bottom of the drawing is.

Anyway, the size of this frame is too large, and if you want to transport it out of the tunnel, you have to take it apart, so it doesn't matter if you take it apart first.

As a result, several people in the carriage felt a little enthusiastic about it!

War!

This is an oil painting showing the tragic fortress attack and defense battle, judging from Zhang Nan's half-level, the painter's painting skills are extremely high, because a tragic smell comes from the canvas!

The cross is in a desperate battle with the stars and the moon, and it is obvious that the stars and the moon have the upper hand.

Zhang Nan looked at it for a while and said, "The fall of Constantinople." ”

In May 1453, the Byzantine capital of Constantinople was captured by the Ottoman Turkish Empire, and the end of the Byzantine Eastern Roman Empire and the rise of the new Islan power were even regarded as one of the symbols of the end of the Middle Ages.

During the seven-week battle of attacking and defending the fortress, both sides, regardless of nationality and creed, showed amazing heroism and tenacity.

Wars were always brutal, and after the fall of the Eastern Roman Empire, it was the turn of the Holy Roman Empire to take on the Turks, and it was normal to have such a painting in a museum in Graz.
