Chapter 131: Soft Armor
Seeing Zhu Xiaobao waving his fists and cheering for Jumei, Tong Wuxin and Wu Yue couldn't help but be stunned, this little fat man still seems to be so heartless, he was talking about him just now and seems to have grown up, but now it seems that he is still the same!
"Hey! Do you know that King Ming's ironclad army has all lined up at the border of Xiyuan City, and they are about to fight, why don't you take it seriously at all? Wu Yue is still very disappointed, why doesn't a mature man who cares about state affairs look like at all! Now I actually watch Jumei milking cows and watch it with relish?
"Isn't there Xia Zixiu? What do you want me to worry about? Isn't your idol the most adored of you women? Zhu Xiaobao glanced at Wu Yue, and snorted a little unhappily, to be honest, he didn't have a good impression of Xia Zixiu, just because Xia Zixiu's appearance was too coquettish, and he threw Zhu Xiaobao away from afar.
"That's what it was! A man straddles a horse in front of the battle to kill the enemy, and he is very handsome if he makes meritorious contributions! My dad was like that back then! Wu Yue said with admiration, she has been influenced by Chief Wu since she was a child, so the concept has always been like this. So I am very dissatisfied with Zhu Xiaobao's lack of progress!
"Humph! A brute force, with iron all over his body, can he be decapitated? Zhu Xiaobao snorted disdainfully, if he wants him to go into battle to kill the enemy, I'm afraid there is no hope in this life! And Zhu Xiaobao is also very disdainful of this way, he fought hard to kill an enemy general, maybe he will make a lose-lose situation, what is there to envy?
"I won't tell you, have you tried the custom armor this time? Why not wear it? This stuff is really useful when it comes to crunch time! Wu Yue also knew that Zhu Xiaobao's talent was impossible to become a general who could go into battle and kill the enemy. It's just a little regret in my heart! It's just that unconsciously, this regret has become less and less. But when it was really time to face the actual battle, Wu Yueyou began to yearn for it a little!
"Don't wear it! It's too heavy, it's a burden! Hee-hee, you're just in time, look at the costumes I designed for the guards, this is the most advanced and scientific! Zhu Xiaobao shook his head.
This time, the armor sent by the nineteenth princess was also carefully crafted, it was actually bright silver armor, and the materials used were also of the highest quality, and the female soldiers looked very vigorous after wearing them, and the weight was not very heavy.
Zhu Xiaobao also has a set of customized armor, which was designed and supervised by Wu Yue himself, somewhat referring to the style of Xia Zixiu's set of bright silver armor, but Zhu Xiaobao wore it once and threw it aside, it was too heavy! And Xia Zixiu looks capable and handsome in dress. But when Zhu Xiaobao put it on, it was like a moving silver ingot, which caused all the female guards to laugh when they saw him, so Zhu Xiaobao threw it aside in a fit of anger.
However, Zhu Xiaobao was not idle, he personally designed a set of soft armor, mainly based on leather armor, and the color was grass green, which was added to the modern concept, and grass green was easier to conceal. Not easy to spot! Originally, I wanted to get a camouflage uniform, but it seems that this condition is not yet available. The current dyeing process is all dyed in full color, so it can only be excellent with grass green!
For that kind of armor, Zhu Xiaobao doesn't value it very much, and feels that the effect is not very great, especially in the face of opponents who use heavy weapons, that thing is an ornament, and when it encounters heavy weapons such as hammers, iron rods, maces, etc., no matter how heavy the armor is, it will be killed on the spot! Therefore, his point of view is still inclined to Tong Wuxin and Zhao Shenbao's soft armor, which is light and practical, and also has a certain protective effect on ordinary hidden weapons and swords.
"Okay, let's take a look!" Although Tong Wuxin does not wear heavy armor, she still insists that the female guards wear and train every day, because in real large-scale battles, this armor still has a certain effect.
Wu Yue followed her to the martial arts arena with some chest tightness, Wu Lijia and they had all changed into light clothes designed by Zhu Xiaobao, although the style was a little weird, but it could give full play to its flexibility to the greatest extent, the key parts were sewn with leather armor, and when fighting in close quarters, flexibility was very important! The helmet is also a bulky helmet that completely abandons iron, but a soft hat that fits the contours of the head, and is also sewn with leather armor one by one.
"What is this? The machete and hammer of the enemy have no effect at all, right? Wu Yue asked a little surprised after seeing it, although all the female soldiers were standing together, very spiritual, but this defense seemed to be too low!
"Hey, hey! I don't ask them to fight the enemy head-on, when it comes to hand-to-hand combat, it's all forced to do it in the end! Speaking of hand-to-hand combat, flexibility is more important than defense! Zhu Xiaobao shook his head and said.
According to the history of the development of ancient warfare, the distance between the two warring sides increased the later it went, because long-range shooting weapons were constantly innovating and improving. What Zhu Xiaobao wants now is to defeat his opponent before he gets close. Just like the last time he faced Ao Yang and others, when he got close, he had completely occupied an absolute advantage.
Obviously, Zhu Xiaobao's concept is not yet accepted by everyone, but now I am quite excited to wear the new and improved uniform, because this style is indeed very attractive. And Zhu Xiaobao is also a demonstration on the spot, a hundred female guards are wearing armor, a hundred female guards are wearing new uniforms, also standing a few hundred steps away, the female guards wearing armor can be seen at a glance, shiny, and reflecting silver-white light, see very clearly. But the female guards in grass green leather armor looked very blurry, as if they could not see clearly, and blended in with the surrounding environment.
"Hey, hey! See? That's why color is so important that it's easier to hide and not easy to spot! Zhu Xiaobao looked at Wu Yue's surprised expression and couldn't help but say.
"I don't know how you came up with it, but even the color was taken into account! As long as it's not a large-scale melee fight, this soft armor is still very effective! "Tong Wuxin first fell in love with this costume, she often performs various tasks of tracking and lurking, and of course she knows the importance of this function of confusing vision!
"Hmmm! It's a bit of a doorway. But I'll go down the mountain first, I'm going to the princess, Xia Zixiu's 30,000 horses have already confronted King Ming! I'll have this soft armor with me! Wu Yue nodded, and then said, she still really wanted to experience large-scale combat in person.
"Alas! You're a woman, why do you like to fight so much? Really, isn't it good to carry it in the blessed land? Zhu Xiaobao shook his head and said.
"I'm a female guard leader, if I don't participate in these battles and don't accumulate experience, how can I teach other female soldiers? How will you help the princess fight in the future? Wu Yue said without hesitation, she had a sense of mission in her life, that is, to help the nineteenth princess fight, and even Chief Wu has always had this belief.
"Alright! Well, this little gadget for you! It's not lethal, but it can scare the other party! Zhu Xiaobao was very worried about Wu Yue, and gave Wu Yue a few thumb-sized things before leaving. Then he came to Wu Yue's ear and whispered, and took the opportunity to touch it!
"Nasty!" Wu Yue was full of joy, but she hummed very habitually in her mouth, then went back to clean up and went down the mountain!
Seeing Wu Yue leave in a hurry, Zhu Xiaobao was a little helpless, he didn't want Wu Yue to participate in any battles, he wanted her to stay in the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, wouldn't this kind of day be very good? But he also knew that he was wishful thinking, after all, the nineteenth princess was the backbone of these people.
"Little treasure! This is something that can't be helped, the Nineteen Dukes are mainly down, and you have no support here! Wu Yue is not only for the nineteenth princess, but also for you! Tong Wuxin said softly on the side.
"Hmmm! I know! So I have to prepare! Zhu Xiaobao sighed and said.
"Huh? What are you preparing? By the way, what did you give Wu Yue just now? Tell you, are you allowed to hide it from me? Tong Wuxin asked a little itchyly, obviously I saw Zhu Xiaobao give Wu Yue more than a dozen cannonballs just now, but this damn Zhu Xiaobao didn't say a word.
"Hey, hey! You know you can't help but ask! It's a cannon that crashes, and it sounds when it falls, and it's used to scare people, but I added some more material to it! Zhu Xiaobao said with a smile.
"How do you use it?" Tong Wuxin immediately asked with great interest, instinctively she felt that this thing might be more useful to her.
"Hey, hey! Come on, try my kung fu, from here to that tree, you try your best to hunt me down, remember, with a wooden knife! Don't really hurt me! "Zhu Xiaobao also changed into his leather armor at this time, not to mention that this costume is worn on his body, he will immediately be more energetic, and he is also very flexible!
After Zhu Xiaobao finished speaking, he didn't give Tong Wuxin time to prepare, he raised his knife and slashed, and at the same time, with his own footwork, he actually made Tong Wuxin scramble all of a sudden.
"Little bastard! Dare to sneak attack! Tong Wuxin shouted a little annoyed, but he was also a little surprised by Zhu Xiaobao's kung fu, this guy can be so flexible, and he has really improved a lot!
In the future, Zhu Xiaobao can only escape! is not a Tong Wuxin's opponent at all, but his ability to escape is indeed very set, turning left and right, and the footwork of the mandarin duck knife is actually very good.
Seeing that Zhu Xiaobao was getting closer and closer to the tree, Tong Wuxin also sped up, but just as he was about to get close to Zhu Xiaobao, Zhu Xiaobao threw out a falling cannon as soon as he turned around. Tong Wuxin has long been guarding against the secret weapon of Zhu Xiaobao! With a swing of the knife, the cannon was knocked down.
"Smack!"
A very crisp explosion really startled Tong Wuxin, but this thing is indeed as Zhu Xiaobao said, it has no lethality, it is just a flash in front of him, which makes people a little caught off guard, but Zhu Xiaobao has already taken advantage of this gap and escaped several meters.
Tong Wuxin was a little anxious, and on tiptoe, he was about to rush over to catch up with him, but at this time, he seemed to smell something similar to pepper in his nose, and what he didn't expect was that he actually wanted to sneeze at this critical time, and it was very uncomfortable to squint his eyes, but Zhu Xiaobao threw several cannons one after another......
