The rangers are formed in formation, even loose.

It's sparse and it's not as compact as a swoop. Don't underestimate it. The knights on their backs all have two stones and strong bows. is as strong as Xu Rong, and can even open the bow left and right. The charge does not take a straight line, but a roundabout. Divided into two formations on the left and right, diffusing the Wuhuan Assault Cavalry.

Wulian's riding skills are also extremely clever.

He was able to toss and turn on horseback and avoid cold arrows! You can also pull back and fight back.

Two teams of people, no need to aim. Draw your bow and arrow, raise your hand and shoot. The arrows are like meteors, although the armor-piercing arrows are broken, you can still hear the sharp arrows whistling, endlessly.

This side shoots highly. It's wonderful to hide over there.

You come and go. In the quiver on horseback, the arrows are gradually decreasing. Wu Lian deserves to be the sister of the king of Wuhuan. Horsemanship, archery, and archery avoidance are all superior. Although he is young, he can open two strong bows in a row! If it weren't for the recent start of growing hair, I would have mistaken her for a Wuhuan warrior.

Fierce battles are also costly. Xianbei horses and Wuhuan horses are all good horses in the world. It's been a long time and it's tired. The speed drops, and the turn is not in time. The knights on their backs were shot one after another. The two sides agreed that the arrow would be withdrawn. And every knight came out.

Knights in the field, the more you fight, the less you fight. Only Wulian and Xu Rong remained. Only then did the obsessed audience wake up. After fighting for a long time, both sides are all shooting bows! galloped back and forth, but there was not a single short-handed encounter. In the case of infantry phalanxes, the rangers should be of great use.

Leaning over to dodge the cold arrow that shot into the back of the heart, Wu Lian touched it with a backhand. There are no arrows left in the bag.

"Look at the arrows!" Xu Rong chased after him, opened the full moon with his bow, and shot an arrow.

The arrow is like a meteor, piercing the back of the heart!

Wu Lian turned around suddenly, and he was embarrassed. The tail of the arrow will be grazed on the cheek, but she opened her mouth to hold it!

He took it off with one hand, turned around and shot an arrow, and went straight to Xu Rong's door.

was swept away by Xu Rong with a bow.

"Come again!" Wu Lian's legs kicked the horse's belly, and the war horse jumped violently. Xu Rong also chased after him.

The arrows scattered in the field were picked up by the two of them. You go back and forth, and you shoot again.

"How?" Liu Bei asked Huang Zhong.

"When Xu Rong's skills are superior." Huang Zhong is the enemy of 10,000 people. There is no mistake in vision: "Xu Rong did not do his best. With his ability, he can fire quick arrows in a row. There were a few times when he got close, and Xu Rong did not raise the knife. Short soldiers intersect, not out of the three will be cut off under the horse. ”

There were several times when Xu Rong had an arrow in his front and back hands, which was obviously a rapid-fire archery method. But it didn't lead to it, obviously because of the mercy of his subordinates. Worthy of being a strong man who defeated Cao Cao and Sun Jian, Liu Bei nodded: "You can be called a good general." ”

Huang Zhong said with a smile: "Young Master Mo doesn't want him to lead the Wuhuan Tu Cavalry. ”

Liu Bei nodded first, and then shook his head: "The Wuhuan Turquoise Cavalry is long at charging into battle. Xu Rongshan guerrilla, with different tactics from each other. He can be put in charge of the army. ”

"It's just ten horses, where did you come from?" Huang Zhong questioned.

"We'll see soon." Liu Bei replied with a smile.

The Xianbei horse was very tired from the bumpy boat all the way. gradually lost his physical strength, but Xu Rong was able to shoot each other with Wu Lian, and the battle was tied.

The stands applauded. The audience was hooked. The five-penny ticket price is worth it!

Wulian whistled, and the assault cavalry lined up. Xu Rong personally gathered with his horse. Both sides saluted each other, and there was respect on their faces. When you meet an opponent in chess, you will meet a good talent. Joyfully.

Descending to the ground by ladder, Liu Bei went back to his house and took out his self-defense leather armor to check. There are many stones mixed into the white skin, so it is invulnerable. The reason why enamel armor is better than iron armor is because enamel is harder than steel (Mohs hardness 6, higher than steel, second to gemstones). And because of the broken energy absorption, the anti-armor-piercing arrow is a miracle. If you let the leather armor mix with the stones......

Liu Beifu was very happy, and this was a flash of inspiration. In the process of painting leather armor, can it be mixed with some enamel glaze?

The speedy man invited Suber. Tell us everything you want.

Su Bo thought for a while and said: But the young owner wants to apply a layer of enamel on top of the leather armor?

Liu Bei nodded: Exactly.

Su Bo smiled: What's so difficult about this? Just grind the enamel glaze into powder and brush it on top of the leather armor.

Liu Bei asked urgently: How can I brush the skin?

Sub smiled again: You can use paint.

Liu Bei asked again: What is lacquer?

髹lacquer (xiū qī), also known as '髤lacquer', refers to the use of lacquer to paint things.

Lacquer is also a crucial step in the leather armor production process. The leather tire of the leather armor of the Qin Dynasty is a raw skin that has not been processed into leather. The outer part of the leather tire is painted black or dark brown, and it is generally two to three layers. The nail piece is first painted with red lacquer, then with black lacquer. Braided with a ribbon three to four minutes wide (0.6~0.8 cm) to form a nail. The ribbon is dyed vermilion with cinnabar, which is the 'group armor' recorded in ancient texts.

During the Han Dynasty, iron had replaced bronze, and the army was heavily equipped with steel protective gear. But leather armor is still used. In the Han Dynasty, leather armor was called 'leather armor' and 'leather armor' (dī mào leather helmet)' to distinguish it from iron armor. Leather armor is still the primary armor used by junior sergeants even today.

Su Bo found a few craftsmen who were good at making armor and took raw cowhide to make armor.

The enamel on the armor pieces that have been replaced due to martial arts or battles is crushed with 'water pressure'. Scrape and grind into enamel powder, mix in varnish, stir well, and apply to the cowhide armor.

And according to the ancient method, first red paint, then black paint, a total of three layers.

Wait for Jiacheng to let Huang Zhong give it a try.

The three-stone strong bow can only be shot through!

It's a big deal!

Liu Bei was overjoyed. Huang Zhong was shocked. Su Bo was also surprised and delighted. The young owner is really a genius!

As everyone knows, mixing porcelain chips in the paint is not Liu Bei's patent.

In the "Wubei Zhi", it was mentioned that the method of leather armor in the Ming Dynasty: "Raw cowhide is cut into nail pieces and shaved with a knife; Break the bowl and crush it, sieve off the rice crumbs, adjust the lacquer on the fu, and the sharp blade cannot enter if the oil is soaked. "In order to improve the defensive ability of leather armor, the armor makers of the Ming Dynasty took advantage of the good adhesion of lacquer to mix fine porcelain chips or tile chips into the lacquer and brush them on the surface of the leather armor. and Liu Bei's scraping enamel paint, there are similarities.

Leather armor can block two stone strong bows. but it can't block three stones. How can it be improved?

Two ways: multiple layers of leather are stacked to form a composite armor. or increase the thickness of the paint.

Both methods have a drawback, excessive armor. How can you composite and thicken the paint layer without adding weight?

Liu Bei then asked: Su Bo, what kind of skin can be made into 'leather armor', and it is thin and wrinkled?

Su Bo thought for a while and said: It should be the dragon armor (tuó).

Dragon, also known as Pig Dragon. It is what later generations called the Chinese alligator. A crocodile endemic to our country. After the scaling of the crocodile skin, it is indeed wrinkled. The more wrinkles, the better the adhesion when painting. And compared to cowhide, crocodile leather has pores. This is especially important for painting. In this way, the varnish can penetrate through the pores and increase adhesion.

Liu Bei paid a lot of money and ordered someone to buy it in Jiangnan.

Made of perennial crocodile skin, nitrate made of nails, hard and durable.

It is also too hard to wear. Liu Bei also ordered someone to make a lining to solve the drawbacks of the dragon leather armor.

After repeated tests by good craftsmen, the Lousang version of the dragon equipment was finally completed.
