Ang Lee looked slightly disappointed, this duel was not as exciting as he imagined, because the two sides were not fighting fiercely enough, or rather, not evenly enough, at the beginning, the pirates had some advantages, but soon the robbers regained the advantage, and moreover, they have maintained this advantage, and the pirates who have been pressed are breathless.

The fight between the two sides is not too much, more than half of the time is chasing and dodging, and this is obviously a bit much, in the duel game, the duel scene between the two sides should occupy at least eighty percent to be good-looking, and, if it is the kind of, after one is cut, and then swings the sword and slashes the other party, the two sides are constantly being cut, constantly counterattacking, and the fight is inseparable, this is the real duel.

And the duel in the Colosseum in front of him obviously does not meet Ang Lee's expectations, there are not many attacks that can really make each other suffer damage, they are all shield strikes and chase dodges, looking like children playing at home, although the crowd of onlookers is already very satisfied, but Ang Lee's requirements are higher, and the current fight obviously does not meet Ang Lee's psychological expectations.

"Let them fight well, and if they are so foolish, they will all be killed."

Li An looked at his subordinates beside him and asked.

"Li Shilang, rest assured, his subordinates have already warned them, and they won't let them play hide and seek anymore, just wait and watch the show!"

The subordinate said hurriedly.

Because there was a promise before the fight, as long as they behave well, they will be given great benefits, and those who can survive will have the greatest natural benefits, even if they die, they can get a thick burial, if they don't behave well, the treatment will be too bad, and they will even be brutally beheaded, so they don't dare not pay attention to the perspective fight, and after being warned, they will no longer run around.

The pirate raises his sword to meet the enemy, while the robber throws away his shield and picks up the sword just below his feet, ready for a final fight to the death with the pirate.

"Ah......h

The two gladiators shouted and charged forward, and as soon as they got closer, they swung their swords at each other, because the physical exertion was relatively large, and the fine armor was relatively cumbersome, so the first attack did not achieve actual results.

But after they stopped, they continued to attack each other with long swords, of course, they also used long swords to block each other, the probability of the attack being blocked accounted for about eighty percent, and only two percent of the attacks hit the opponent's body, but because of the protection of excellent armor, these two percent of the attacks did not cause too much damage to the other party, not enough, the pain is unavoidable.

And in order to survive, even if they are in extreme pain, they must fight with all their might, because once they give up, they will lose their lives.

Li Andu felt sorry for the two pairs of armor, attacking back and forth, on the excellent armor, it is estimated that they are already scarred, although it does not affect the actual use, but the appearance is definitely not good.

However, as long as the duel match is exciting enough, the loss is worth it, and nothing is more important than having fun, and it is also a good choice to buy some money for happiness.

The audience likes to watch wonderful performances, the more wonderful the performances, the more the audience likes them, after the fight between the two gladiators entered the white-hot stage, all the audience was boiling, constantly yelling, they couldn't control themselves at all, and the scene became extremely enthusiastic.

"Li Shilang, the protection of these two sets of armor is too high, unless it is hit in the neck, it can't cause too much damage to the opponent at all."

A civil official said.

"This is the most sophisticated armor, and the protection is naturally very amazing, and this fight is the best proof that Datang's Mingguang armor and Dashi's fine armor are both very good armor."

Another civil servant said proudly.

Ang Lee also admitted that the armor worn by the two gladiators was indeed very sophisticated armor and had very excellent protective capabilities.

But no matter how good the armor is, if it is too bulky, it is not very good, even if it is bulky, it is not warm enough, and once it is winter, it is often difficult to wear on the body, these are its biggest shortcomings.

It's just that the high protection means that it can protect the lives of soldiers, so soldiers and generals like such armor, even if such armor has many shortcomings, it will be covered by this advantage.

But Li An doesn't like the heavy armor of Mingguang armor, according to the specific model, Mingguang armor has several grades, among them, the heaviest model weighs seventy pounds, and it is really stressful to wear on the body, Li An himself has never worn armor, in case he falls into the river, he will die if he can swim.

However, before the better armor is studied, the Datang warriors can only wear these bulky armors, and there is no better way.

And the armor that Li Ang hopes for should be breathable and warm, and it must be very lightweight, and the bulky armor is definitely not too good armor.

Since ancient times, the best armor has always been heavy armor made of metal, and this practice of sacrificing light in exchange for strong defense is not a solution, and it also allows the army wearing heavy armor to enjoy great benefits.

However, with the development of science and technology and the progress of attack weapons, metal armor was finally eliminated, because with the gradual increase in the power of guns, metal armor has no defense at all, replaced by metal tanks and armored vehicles, and soldiers no longer need to wear armor.

Of course, with the further development of science and technology, more sophisticated flexible armor eventually appeared, which was much more advanced than metal armor, and its defensive power was no worse than metal armor.

The most glorious era of metal armor should be the era before and after the Tang Dynasty, after the modern era, the metal armor has declined, and the world has entered the era of soldiers without armor, and then there is a relatively flexible and sophisticated armor like body armor, which is far more protective and lightweight, far beyond the metal armor of the Tang Dynasty.

In the land of China, the decline of the first metal armor should be in the era of the Braided Dynasty, when because of the emergence of firearms, the role of metal armor is not large, and the cost of producing metal armor is very high, so fools will desperately produce metal armor.

Instead of cotton armor, cotton armor, as the name suggests, is an armor made of cotton clothing, however, cotton armor is not just a material of cotton, otherwise, what is made is ordinary cotton clothing, which has nothing to do with cotton armor.

The so-called cotton armor is made of iron armor inlaid in the middle of two layers of cotton cloth, and its defensive power against early firearms is very amazing.

This is because in the early days of firearms, all shots were scattershot, just like a handful of sand, and cotton armor was just a good defense against this kind of attack, so that soldiers could suffer minimal damage.

For example, the cotton armor of the braid is to repeatedly beat the newly picked wet cotton to make a very thin cotton cloth, and then superimpose many layers of cotton cloth together to make the cotton cloth required for the cotton armor, and finally, the iron armor is sandwiched between the two layers of cotton cloth, and the inside and outside are fixed with copper nails, so that the cotton armor of the braided face is completed.

Such cotton armor can not only defend against the attack of cold weapons, but also defend against the attack of early firearms, in addition, because the inner and outer layers of this cotton armor are cotton cloth, so, the warmth is still very good, in winter, can be worn as cotton clothes, play a role in keeping warm.

With Datang's existing scientific and technological strength, the pressure to create a cotton armor like the braid Chao is not great, and it is easy to develop it, however, Li An is still not very satisfied with this cotton armor, because the middle of this cotton armor is iron armor, which is still very bulky, and the weight is not much different from Mingguang armor, it is a heavy armor with strong defense, cumbersome and heavy.

And the high-quality armor that Li An is looking forward to in his heart cannot weigh more than twenty catties, and the defensive effect cannot be worse than that of Mingguang armor, at least it cannot be penetrated by swords and bows and arrows, otherwise, it cannot be called armor.

Such a high-demand armor, with the scientific and technological strength that Datang currently masters, can be completely developed, however, ordinary R & D talents do not understand the science and technology of later generations, so they must not know where to start, and Li An knows far more than people in this era, so if you want to develop a lightweight armor to replace Mingguang armor, you must Li An personally go out, overseas conditions are too limited, Li An must return to the research and development center in Chang'an City, in order to carry out research on this technology.

Because he hadn't started the research yet, Li An couldn't be very sure whether he could succeed at all, so he didn't reveal it to these subordinates, so as not to fail in the research in the future and embarrass himself.

"Datang Warriors, come on, come on."

"If you work harder, you're going to win."

"Kill, kill, kill, kill ......"

The duel between the two entered a very exciting stage, and the crowd of onlookers cheered again.

"It's still Li Shilang's idea, let them wear armor and fight, otherwise, they will die in three or two hits, and there will be no point to watch."

A military general was on the verge and said happily.

"It's a pity that if we keep fighting like this, when will the fight end!"

An official is old, when he first started to watch it, he was still excited, he felt very thrilling, but after a while, he couldn't hold on, because of age and body, he always couldn't enjoy a thing for a long time, sleep can not last, sleep at most three hours a day, eat can not last, sometimes, eat for a while to take a break, pop is even less lasting, almost just go in and it is over, it can be described as a quick solution, watching a good show will soon feel boring, this is a typical sign of aging, people are old, the vitality will slowly fade, and eventually return to the loess.

"If you're tired of watching, let's go back first! Those who want to see continue to stay. ”

Li An is a commander who is very sympathetic to his subordinates, and when he saw that some of his subordinates were tired, he spoke.

"Li Shilang, the lower officials are not tired, not tired."

The old official was actually very tired, but in order to accompany Li An, he still refused to leave.

Ang Lee doesn't force it, he can leave if he wants to go, and if he doesn't want to go, stay and continue to enjoy the performance.

They are all right, they all have tables, chairs and tents, and people come to add tea from time to time, if they are tired, lie down and take a nap, in short, they are not very tired at all.

The many spectators on the side are more hard, they only have a small number of seats, most of them can only stand, standing all the time will definitely be very tired, and there are many older businessmen on this façade, at this moment, many people are already tired of standing, so they have to use this measure to walk back and forth to relieve their discomfort.

Because standing still will be very tired, and walking back and forth will be easier, so that people will not be too tired, such as standing guard for a few hours, it will make people very tired, but if you go shopping for a few hours, the feeling of fatigue will be very slight, this is because there is always a fixed action, so that part of the muscles of the body will always be in a tight state, and the other part of the muscles will always be in a relaxed state, so that the body is naturally very tired, and if you keep walking, The muscles in different parts of the body will take turns to tighten and relax, and the fatigue will naturally not be high.

Therefore, some old businessmen who are not very good physically choose to walk back and forth, which can reduce the discomfort of the body, in addition, there is another advantage of this, that is, you can meet different acquaintances, hear the evaluation of the Colosseum by different businessmen, and even, maybe you can also hear the business opportunities they are interested in, and bring enough benefits to yourself?

There are also some businessmen who choose to sit on the ground for a while to rest, and after they have rested enough, they will get up to watch the wonderful beast fight, after all, if the body is tired, no matter how beautiful the wonderful performance, it will become less exciting.

Only when people are in good health and in a good mood can they have more thoughts to appreciate beautiful things, and if there is a bad one, the effect of appreciating beautiful things will be greatly reduced.

For example, when you are in good health, you will be very excited to watch a football game, but if you are not feeling well, it is estimated that you will not be in the mood to watch a football game.

When the couples in the park enjoy the bright moon, they will feel that the bright moon is very beautiful, and the more they look at it, the more beautiful it is, but if it is a single dog, in a park full of couples, it is estimated that the mood will be very bad, and there is no mood to look up at the moon, let alone think that the moon is good-looking.

"Good, wonderful, wonderful!"

"Datang warriors are doing well, come on!"

The crowd of onlookers shouted again.

"What's wrong, what's going on?"

Some of the merchants who were sitting on the ground resting, hearing the loud cheers, quickly got up and looked at the Colosseum.

"Hahaha! The Datang warriors are amazing! The one on the other side was beaten down, hahaha! ”

Everyone screamed in excitement when they saw the pirate fall to the ground.

After a series of slashes, the armor on the two gladiators had been slashed at least dozens of times, and they were already scarred, and in addition, most of their physical strength had been consumed, and there was not much strength left.

The robber's stamina was superior, and at the end of the day, a slash knocked the pirate to the ground, followed by a series of slashes aimed at the pirate's vital point.
