The purpose of coming here today is known to Zhang Buyi.

Since the first forging machine was completed, officials from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry have been stationed here, constantly instructing craftsmen to build armor according to requirements.

Today is the day when all the armor has been built and the initial tests have been carried out.

Wang Buyu brought these ministers over, in fact, they came to inspect and finalize the form.

Looking at the entire row of various armors on the shelf in front of him, Zhang Buyi couldn't help but swallow.

It's so extravagant......

Especially the one on the far right, I just like to die......

Zhang Buyi forgot about the transaction with Sima Xin, and ran over with excitement on his face.

Today he was wearing casual clothes, so he didn't need to take off his clothes or anything.

With the help of craftsmen, Zhang Buyi easily put on the first and simplest set of armor.

It's so simple that it only has the front chest and back, and wearing it on the body is not a burden at all for Zhang Buyi, and he doesn't have his own set of armor.

"Your Majesty, this set of armor weighs a total of seven catties, four catties in the front armor, three catties in the back, using an arc design, which can better fit the body, when slashing and stabbing, you only need to turn around slightly, you can resolve the enemy's attack, this set of armor can resist the attack of light arrows fifty steps away, and if you are in close combat, you can make it change shape." The craftsman began to introduce the armor on Zhang Buyi's body.

Wang Bu nodded his head, and at the same time threw away this set in his heart.

Seven catties, or divided into two parts, this weight is indeed not complimentary.

If you convert it to modern weight, it is about three catties and five taels.

Then make it into armor that protects the entire chest, which is basically a thin piece.

However, the Huns are all light arrows, so if they are equipped with this kind of armor, they save materials, and the effect is somewhat effective.

Wang Buxing waved his hand, Zhang Buyi took off the armor on his body, and put on a new set.

After changing, I don't forget to move randomly and irregularly, not idle mold, but to try to see if wearing it on my body affects the battle.

And this set of armor is a little more feeling and weighty than the one just now.

"Your Majesty, this set of armor weighs about twelve catties, seven catties on the chest, and five catties on the back, light arrows cannot affect it, and heavy arrows can pose a threat...... "The craftsman introduced this set of data.

Basically, except for the weight, the shape of these two sets has not changed much.

It's all simple to burst, and it's only responsible for protecting the front chest and back.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Buyi changed another set.

This set is a lot more advanced.,The full weight is twenty pounds.,It looks a lot better than the two dicks just now.。

Previously, due to the lack of smelting technology, the armor was mainly made of scales.

It was piece-by-piece, strung together with hemp rope and woven into the shape of armor.

This armor has a certain protective ability, but when faced with arrows, if it is not tightly fabricated, it is easy to penetrate through the gap.

In addition, the hemp rope is not conducive to maintenance, and it is exposed to the wind and sun, so it basically has to be replaced once every two months, and this is a big project.

If you don't change it, the rope will be bad, and when the time comes, the nail pieces on your body will fall to the ground with a bang, if you go to the battlefield, not only will you be injured, but you will even be heartbroken, and it is estimated that there are not a few people who shouted tofu scum engineering before dying.

But not anymore.

The smelting technology has been upgraded, and the forging technology has also been upgraded.

The armor on the chest and back is now monolithic.

Even if you maintain it, you only need to change the rope that connects the front and rear armor pieces, and it can basically be done in a minute.

And the protection capability has also been increased by more than one level.

This set of twenty pounds of armor, the front armor weighs nine pounds, and the rear armor weighs six pounds, adding protection at the two shoulders, and the shoulders are still used with scales.

However, it is a large piece, each of which is composed of six pieces, with a little arc, just connected with the armor at the shoulder blades, and the protective ability is undoubtedly several levels.

However, Wang is not hungry, but he prefers the next set.

It is two catties more than the previous set, the front armor and the back armor are integral, and the weight is mainly increased here, but the thickness is slightly thinner than the previous set.

The design of this set is similar to that of clothes, people just get into it, and they are fixed at the ribs with ropes, and the joints are still scaly.

"How's this set?" Wang Bu was hungry and asked everyone directly.

"The protection ability is good, and there are many places that can be protected, basically as long as the first knife does not cut the neck, it is not a big problem!" The baby is also very pleasing to the evaluation.

This set is also equipped with a two-pound iron jacket, which is directly poured with molten iron, and the only weakness is that it cannot protect the neck.

"This is too much to expect......" Zhang Cang couldn't help but wipe his forehead.

It's all money.

Although the mine doesn't need money, but the labor needs money, every expenditure comes to him to ask for money, even if the Han State receives the treasury of the Qin Dynasty, it can't withstand such spending.

On more than one occasion, Zhang Cang suggested conscription as a way to reduce the pressure on the state treasury.

But Wang Bu was not hungry and only agreed to the nearest conscription, and the kind of conscription that required a long journey was directly waived.

So now the most pressure is Zhang Cang, not others.

"We'll talk about the materials then!" Wang Bu was hungry and shook his head.

He was satisfied with this set, but it was not without problems.

directly took the iron crate and put it on Zhang Buyi, then fixed it, found a craftsman's crowbar, and knocked it on Zhang Buyi's head with twenty percent of his strength.

'Bang ......'

"How does it feel?" Wang Buxing asked with a smile, and he knew that he felt very bad by looking at his expression.

"It hurts ......" Zhang Buyi was about to cry.

Although the iron cane can protect, for blunt objects, his protection ability is very poor.

Especially this kind of monolithic, basically if you smash it, the whole person will be shocked out of internal injuries.

But there is no need to think about this now.

The iron grate is tightly attached to the head, and there is no cushion in the middle, can it not hurt if it is smashed like this?

This is still a situation when the king is not hungry and does not use too much strength.

"Change the iron crest, make a larger circle, with some holes around it, and weave a net in it with hemp rope when the time comes, so that the head and the iron crest can be kept at a fixed distance, and there can be a buffer when attacked." Wang Bu was hungry and said directly.

No matter what helmet you are, you have to make an inner lining, otherwise it's nothing, and the whole person will be GG this time.

An unlined helmet is actually no different from not using it.

"No!" The craftsman humbly recorded his opinions.

In fact, there is no record, it is not a difficult task, as for the compilation of the network.

I'm sorry, they don't have the energy, at most they just give a few samples, and then send them to the front line for the soldiers to do it themselves, anyway, it's not any technical work, how fancy and how to come!

"That's it, build 500 sets immediately, and then send them to Han Xin, let the soldiers experience it, if there are no changes, start building!" Wang Bu was hungry and decided directly.

When the craftsman introduced it earlier, he had already talked about the speed of the creation of this armor.

With the hydraulic forging machine and the blast furnace ironmaking, it is still very fast to build.

One machine, one day, is capable of building ten sets of bodies.

With some small details, 500 sets is less than five days' work for the moment.

Next up is the heavy armor, which is specially designed for heavy cavalry.

There are three sets of armor for war horses alone.

Two of them are monolithic, and the style is very similar, except that one is protected by the legs of the cavalry.

It was to widen it a little in the riding position, and then create a saddle shape directly on the armor, leaving holes, and then you can add some soft things.

The leg position is widened, and there is a pedal attached to the iron armor inside.

This has the advantage of protecting the cavalry's legs from threats.

The disadvantage is that the sensitivity and freedom will decrease, and if the war horse is tired or dies, the person will fall down with the war horse, and the weight of the war horse will be pressed on the legs, and it will be difficult for the person to get out immediately.

The other is also integral, the saddle and pedals are also connected, but on the outside, the pedals are directly hit, which can save some materials that link the stirrup and the saddle.

The last one is scaly and the lightest.

Wang Bu was hungry and chose the integral external and scaly type, and made fifty of them to send.

Then came the most important thing, the armor of the heavy cavalry.

There is only one set of armor for the heavy cavalry, and this king has seen it and has made a lot of opinions, so this set is retained according to his opinion.

And now the set that is unfolding in front of you is the armor that is really armed to the teeth.

"Your Majesty, isn't this a bit heavy?" Zhang Buyi, who was wearing a full set of armor, now seemed to be incarnated as Iron Man, although he was very handsome, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

"This suit of armor weighs sixty pounds, and it is almost invulnerable!" Wang Bu said proudly.

Don't think it's terrifying to listen to sixty catties, and then convert it, that is, thirty catties and fifteen kilograms in later generations, which is already considered light among heavy cavalry.

The vest weighs more than 100 kilograms, but it is actually about 30 kilograms.

Add to that the weight of a cavalryman, according to seventy kilograms, and then ten kilograms of various weapons.

The weight that a war horse needs to bear is one hundred and twenty-five kilograms, which is the weight of later generations.

For a war horse on the steppe, this weight is acceptable.

And this level of heavy cavalry, he is invincible now, he is not only invincible, if he uses high-quality war horses, he can also ensure his charging speed and staying power.

Every time he thought that he was going to take the heavy cavalry to play with the Huns, the king couldn't help but laugh when he was not hungry.

And after seeing this set of armor that satisfied him, Wang Buxing finally couldn't help it.

Pointing at Zhang Buyi, he said: "You say, I took this suit of armor to fight the Huns, is it a bit of a bully?" ”
