"As you can see, this armor is not made entirely of iron, but is mixed with things like silk cloth to make it lighter and tougher. Of course, the reason why the arrow shifts its position after being shot is because of the use of some completely new techniques called force and reaction force. ”

"Force action and reaction force?"

Yang Biao and the others showed a strong look of incomprehension on their faces, Yuan Chang was naturally in no mood to explain physics to them, and even if they did, they might not be able to understand it. Therefore, he said directly and simply: "The so-called force and reaction force of force, simply put, is the same as beating someone with a fist, the other party will be in pain and the person who beats someone will also be in pain." And if a weak woman hits a strong man with her fists, the strong man may not feel pain, but the weak woman will hurt her fists, which is the truth. Of course, it is complicated to talk about in detail, and it will be difficult to explain it clearly for a while. If you are interested, you may wish to go to the library, which has a physics book, which is divided into elementary, intermediate and advanced levels, and you will be able to understand the meaning after research. ”

"Physics, the principle of all things, this name from Chairman Yuan is exactly what it means!"

Yang Biao stroked his long beard, and praised it again, everyone couldn't help but roll their eyes when they heard it, what is there to praise this, if it weren't for knowing Yang Biao's human nature, I'm afraid they would think that this guy was patting on the back. Of course, although Yuan Chang is powerful, Yang Biao will not pat him on the back. It was completely after seeing the books and the invention of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and I was subconsciously admired. Besides, Yang Biao's temperament is like this, and he doesn't mind what others think of him.

Dong Cheng, as a general, said excitedly: "This armor can only penetrate the armor by shooting with a five-stone longbow at a distance of fifty paces, if you want to shoot people, I am afraid that you must use a longbow of at least seven stones or more." And the soldiers, wearing such armor, on the battlefield, when the archers simply cannot get closer to a distance of fifty paces, can completely ignore the archers of the opposing side. Moreover, on the battlefield, it is not certain that the seven-stone longbow can shoot soldiers, unless it is a nine-stone longbow. However, elite archers can't shoot continuously with a three-stone longbow, let alone a longbow of more than five stones. With such armor, it will greatly reduce the casualties of the soldiers, which can really be described as treasure armor. ”

As Dong Cheng said, on the battlefield, wearing such armor, as long as the luck is not very bad, and the unmanageable positions such as the face gate are shot, the archer's attack can be completely ignored. Even if it is not on the battlefield, wearing such armor to avoid being attacked by others is also a sharp weapon, there are many people who are good at bows and arrows these years, but how many people can pull a longbow of more than five stones?

Liu Xie praised them, but Yuan Chang didn't interrupt, and he brought them here to let them know the importance of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Otherwise, Yuan Chang was full and had nothing to do, so what kind of strength would he take them here to visit. Now, they have clearly recognized the importance of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, although the officials brought back from Luoyang will not necessarily stay in their current positions. However, at least for the time being, it is necessary to let them know something about the situation, which is conducive to the development of future work.

Liu Xie and the others discussed for a long time before they finally stopped, and at this time, Yuan Chang asked people to take swords, bows and crossbows and other things again, and continued to test the protective power of the armor.

The sword created by the Chinese Academy of Sciences also requires several swords and knives to destroy the armor, and the bow and crossbow can shoot through the armor at a distance of three steps, and the result is naturally satisfactory, even the strict Ma Jun and Ou Nanbao nodded with satisfaction when they saw this situation.

"Deheng, Nanbao, the protection of this armor is excellent, you have done a good job. ”

Liu Xie and others saw that Yuan Chang was praising Ma Jun and Ou Nanbao and other personnel of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and felt that it should be so, and it was natural for others to create such armor, praise and reward. However, Guo Jia, Zhao Yun and other people from Youzhou know very well that if Yuan Chang is like this at the beginning, there must be a follow-up. Sure enough, I only heard Yuan Chang continue: "However, you can't just be satisfied with this, you should have a higher pursuit. For example, under the slash of the sword, the armor is guaranteed to be damaged within ten attacks, and in the case of a crossbow, even if it is close to the body, it will not be able to hurt the person wearing the armor, and you can even study that if the opponent sneaks up with the bow, the crossbow can even bounce back. ”

"This..."

Liu Xie and the others all looked at each other when they heard Yuan Chang's words, with an expression of disbelief, is this Yuan Chang's requirements too high, the armor with such a strong protective ability is still dissatisfied, and there are higher requirements, is it that they are too ignorant, or is this world no longer the world they are familiar with?

Compared with Liu Xie's surprise, Ma Jun and Ou Nanbao had obviously long been accustomed to Yuan Chang's style, and they responded to the order, saying: "What the Lord taught is that we will not be complacent, continue to create and innovate, and strive to do better." ”

"Hmm!"

Yuan Chang nodded with satisfaction, and began to preach without saying a word, saying: "You must remember that on the road of research and invention, you can never stop, once you stop, others are still moving forward at all times, so sooner or later one day will be surpassed, then, if you fall behind, you will be beaten, this is an eternal truth." In short, you should remember that on the road of scientific research, there is no best, only better, so that you can achieve something. ”

"Yes, we will remember the teachings of the Lord, and I will save my body three times a day!"

"If you fall behind, you will be beaten, this is true, and even reasonable. At the time of Emperor Wu, the Han court was strong, chasing the north of the country, and the Huns who fought fled in embarrassment, and they couldn't live in panic. However, after Emperor Wu, the military strength was slightly weaker, and the Xiongnu and other foreign races began to invade the Central Plains of our country and rob the people's property. ”

Yang Biao listened to Yuan Chang's words, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but sigh.

Compared with Yang Biao's feelings, Liu Xie's feelings are more profound. It was precisely because of the weakness of the Han dynasty that the strength of the imperial court was greatly reduced, and thieves such as Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, and Guo Yan were able to exert their power and fortune, and they pressed on his head, and did not take him as a son of heaven in his eyes at all; moreover, it was precisely because of his backwardness that he had to move the capital to Youzhou, and his actions and words had to look at the faces of others, which was not the most direct manifestation of being beaten if he was backward. If the majesty of the imperial court is still there, which thief dares to offend the royal family?

It's a pity that when Liu Xie took over the throne, the world had become like this, and he had the heart to change, but he was powerless to recover. On the surface, the state ministers still claimed to be the courtiers of the Han family, but secretly, who would care about him as an emperor? If it weren't for the fact that he still had a little use value, I am afraid that he would have been in a different place long ago.

However, what he has seen and heard in Youzhou in just a few days has eliminated his previous dissatisfaction. Perhaps, with the help of Yuan Chang, it is not impossible to re-establish the majesty of the Han dynasty again. Of course, the premise of all this is that Yuan Chang is willing to help him do this, otherwise, it is all empty talk.

After the scene quieted down, Yuan Chang spoke again and said: "Everyone, you have also seen the protective power of the armor, but I might as well tell you that this armor is only the standard equipment in the Youzhou army, and every soldier wears such armor." ”

"What?"

Yuan Chang's voice fell, and one after another exclamations followed, in their opinion, the treasure armor that could be used as an heirloom turned out to be just the standard equipment of the soldiers of Youzhou, what a shocking thing. Originally, they thought that such armor was extremely rare, and it was already very good to have a few pieces, and they thought that only generals from Youzhou could have them. Therefore, even Yang Biao, who was so cheeky, did not open his mouth to ask Yuan Chang for it. Unexpectedly, such armor is just an ordinary thing, and every soldier in Youzhou can equip it, so it seems that it shouldn't be difficult for them to ask for it, right?

"Of course, in addition to this armor, the Chinese Academy of Sciences has also created armor that is more functional and effective. However, due to the process and materials, the quantity is relatively scarce. ”

Speaking of this, Yuan Chang paused, and under the expectant eyes of Liu Xie and the others, he continued: "Therefore, I present the Führer with one piece of excellent armor and ten pieces of ordinary armor, and the rest of you can choose for yourself, whether to choose one piece of excellent armor or ten pieces of ordinary armor." ”

After speaking, Yuan Chang stopped talking and gave them time to think about it.

Liu Xie is a titular boss, and it is already very good to give one piece of excellent armor and ten pieces of ordinary armor. Although ordinary armor can be crafted in batches, it can't be given away as cabbage, so let them know how valuable this armor is. If they give too much, I'm afraid they won't know how to be grateful, and Yuan Chang is still clear about this truth. As for the others, naturally there is no such treatment as Liu Xie.

"Well, the old man will choose a good piece of armor!"

A moment later, Yang Biao was the first to speak. Under normal circumstances, it would be better to choose ten pieces of ordinary armor, after all, ten pieces of armor can be equipped for ten guards, and if you get such armor, the guards will not be willing to die for it. However, Yang Biao has never made enemies with others, and generally no one will assassinate him, so Yang Biao does not have many guards, and ten ordinary pieces of armor are not very useful, so it is better to take a good armor as an heirloom. Moreover, Yang Biao's eyes flashed with wisdom, and he seemed to have other thoughts.

"Like Commissioner Yang, I choose a good piece of armor!"

"So and so!"

The choices of Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi were the same as those of Yang Biao, and as civil officials, they considered more about the preciousness of the items. Therefore, ten pieces of ordinary armor that can equip ten guards are not as good as one excellent piece of armor.

"Ten pieces of normal armor!"

The person who spoke was Dong Cheng, who, as a general, cared more about practicality. Moreover, in his opinion, this ordinary armor was completely enough to use, and ordinary sneak attacks could not hurt him personally. On the contrary, in Dong Cheng's opinion, excellent armor is mostly worshiped at home, and it is not as practical as this ordinary armor. Moreover, these ten pieces of armor, in addition to one for himself and one for his son, the remaining eight pieces can cultivate eight subordinates who are completely loyal to him, in Dong Cheng's opinion, this meaning is obviously better than the effect of enshrined one piece of armor.

"Choose a good piece of armor!"

Yang Feng's choice attracted the attention of Liu Xie and the others, in their opinion, Yang Feng should choose ten ordinary pieces of armor to build his subordinates, but unexpectedly, the result was beyond their expectations. However, thinking about Yang Feng's background, they were relieved, Yang Feng obviously valued the preciousness of excellent armor more, and did not consider the actual role, and his vision was really a little short-sighted. However, Yang Feng's own choice is like this, so they naturally don't have a good idea to say anything.

Of course, Liu Xie and the others naturally didn't understand that Yang Feng had already served Yuan Chang, was he afraid that Yuan Chang would not give him ordinary armor to build his subordinates, he naturally wouldn't say this, just let them despise him.

After Yang Biao and them made their choice, Yuan Chang continued: "Since you have all made your choice, then I will have someone send the armor to your mansion later." There is one more thing I forgot to tell you, but if you can make any suggestions that will help the Chinese Academy of Sciences to research inventions, you will be rewarded with armor. Moreover, according to the results that can be brought by the proposals, there are different divisions in terms of quality and quantity. If the advice is good enough, it is not impossible to reward ten or a hundred pieces of excellent armor. Also, if you want to create more functional and complete armor in the future, it is recommended that those who have made meritorious contributions can also replace it without paying any price. ”

Hey!

Yang Biao's old face showed an expression that was really like this, he had already guessed just now that Yuan Chang must have something to say, so he would choose excellent armor, ordinary armor may have other ways to obtain, and as he expected, Yuan Chang really said it. However, it was a suggestion that would be helpful to the research and invention of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in order to obtain armor, which made him a little embarrassed. Not only Yang Biao, but also Zhao Wen, Zhang Xi and others felt embarrassed.

As civil officials, well-read literati, there is no problem at all for them to speak the truth. But to ask them to make suggestions about craftsmen makes them feel powerless. However, the allure of armor is too great, and such armor, one or ten pieces of armor naturally cannot satisfy them, of course, the more the better. In this way, didn't they force them to contact the craftsmen, Yuan Chang's hand was very beautiful, and he didn't force it openly, first showing the strong protection of the armor, and then gradually showing his fangs, and finally achieving the goal he expected. Come to think of it, Yuan Chang not only treats them, but also others, so it is difficult for the Chinese Academy of Sciences not to grow.

In order to obtain armor, everyone has to contact and study science, and in the end, science will inevitably spread silently in such a situation, and Yuan Chang will promote the development process of society.
