"Nonsense!"

This time, not only Shi Lang, but all the generals present looked at Chen Kai with incredible eyes. Seeing this, Shi Lang sneered even louder: "This is probably the same joke as your two hundred people destroying a country of six million people." Chen Kai, Ben Shuai sees that you are crazy, the eight-petal helmet is iron, your bullshit rattan helmet is rattan, don't say it's the same, how can the rattan be stronger than the iron?! ”

Shi Lang's words are not unreasonable, the eight-petal helmet is riveted and assembled with iron sheets, and it definitely can't be compared with the one-piece helmet, and even if it is compared with the iron-tipped helmet, it is much worse. However, iron is iron after all, rattan helmets are cheaper in cost, and the rattan craftsmen of the Ordnance Bureau are obviously overcapacity, but if it is really about sturdy, it still can't be compared with the former.

The eyes were full of disbelief, and there was no lack of ridicule from Shi Lang, Shi Xian and others, Chen Kai smiled slightly, but shook his head, and simply said to everyone: "Did the official say that it is stronger?" ”

"Damn, you dare to play Lao Tzu, how can you better protect the soldier's head if you are not strong, if you don't give an explanation today, you won't want to get out of this big tent today."

Saying that, Shi Lang was about to step forward and grab Chen Kai's neck, but he was immediately stopped by the Ke family brothers, and even next to Ke Chenmei, Chen Bin also pinched his fist, and a crisp explosion protruded at the joints, and his eyes were full of disdain when he looked at Shi Lang.

There was no fight, Chen Kai just stood there, standing still. At this moment, seeing that everyone stopped Shi Lang, he asked Shi Lang even more bluntly: "I said yes, you said no, why don't we gamble something?" ”

"Gamble, gamble, I'm afraid you can't afford to lose!"

"Enough!"

Shi Lang had just finished speaking, but was immediately interrupted by a loud shout from behind the crowd. In the next moment, Zheng Chenggong came out of the crowd, first pointing at Chen Kai, and then pointing at Shi Lang, and the scolding of "two scoundrels in the market" was in his mouth, and he almost blurted out.

"You two, what kind of system!"

With a face of hatred that iron does not become steel, Zheng Chenggong was so angry that he had nothing to say. A moment later, in the voice of the people who were angry and the Hou Ye was angry, Zheng Chenggong finally issued a sentence: "Since you want to gamble, let you gamble." If you do this, whoever loses will be fined a month's salary to the other party, and it will be decided! ”

After that, Zheng Chenggong snorted angrily and was about to return to the big tent, but he didn't take two steps, but turned around and came back, pointing at Chen Kai and Shi Lang and said angrily: "You two, whoever loses a cold hair, I will hang the other one on the mast." I'm Zhu Chenggong, and I do what I say! ”

"The last general will not dare."

"The lower officials don't dare."

Whoever hears this, it is all said to Shi Lang, because Chen Kai is a civil official in the final analysis, and some of the things in his hands are basically craftsmen. Even the guards of the workshop, together they are less than a hundred, and they can't be compared with Shi Lang as a military general. And this sentence clearly shows the word protection to everyone.

However, as soon as this remark came out, everyone could see that Zheng Chenggong was extremely angry. One by one, they simply found an excuse and left, only Chen Kai and Shi Lang stared at each other for a moment before they left with a cold snort.

Zheng Chenggong drew the bottom line, and Shi Lang was angry. Now he is waiting for the result of Chen Kai's side, this is not just a matter of a month's salary, but more importantly, whether his action to attack Chen Kai by means of broken weapons can be successful, which will inevitably affect his status in the Zheng group in the future.

Here, Shi Lang returned to the camp in Zuo Pioneer Town, and Chen Kai rested in the camp in Rongqi Town. However, he is not able to be idle, but this matter is not something he can do alone, and he must find a helper.

"Chen, Chen Tongzhi, Xiaguan Chaoyang Zhixian Chang Yifeng specially led a number of craftsmen in the city to work in Tongzhi."

Chang Yifeng's posture is very low, since he welcomed Zheng Chenggong into the city, he didn't want to meddle in the contradiction between Shi Lang and Chen Kai, let alone offend anyone, even if he couldn't pick up any of them.

The county magistrate came in a hurry, left the craftsman and hurried away, fortunately, Chen Kai and the other helpers were never him, but these lowly craftsmen.

"This officer needs you to drill two holes in this position and this position of this rattan helmet, and it will not affect the overall stability. Then, put the strips of cloth in the way I said......"

The workload was not large, Chen Kai finished it that night, the craftsmen left early, and Su Mao also sent someone to follow one home, and after spending some money, he easily put the words out.

"Wearing a rope?"

"No, it's strips of cloth."

"How much are you wearing?"

"It's like five or six, threaded in from different positions, and a little loose net is woven into it."

"Loose little nets?"

This statement was really a bit abstract, and Shi Lang, Shi Xian, and even Su Mao didn't quite understand what the intelligence brought back by the cronie meant.

"Forget it, I'll look at it tomorrow, a broken rattan helmet with a few rags tied to it can be better than an eight-petal helmet, but I don't believe it."

Believe it or not, in fact, it doesn't matter anymore, the next day will reveal the mystery, and they can't change anything until then, rather than thinking about it here, it is indeed better to wait until tomorrow to worry.

The next day, Chen Kai unexpectedly brought the transformed rattan helmet to the Chinese army's big tent, and Zheng Chenggong also took an eight-petal helmet from stock, and just put the two helmets directly on a case.

"How is Chen going to experiment?"

The two helmets were placed there, Chen Kai stood up, and replied: "If you return to the country, the experiment of the rattan helmet and the eight-petal helmet facing the arrows has been done a long time ago, and those who can shoot through the eight-petal helmet can also shoot through the rattan helmet, and vice versa." The one General Shi brought last time, didn't it say that it was broken by thieves during the siege, so let's simulate being hit by siege equipment during the siege, well, the situation after being smashed by rolling wood and stones. ”

Condescendingly, once the rolling wood and stone fall, it is no longer something that people as individuals can compete with. As soon as Chen Kai opened his mouth, he used such a big killing weapon to test, but Shi Lang knew very well that the owner of the rattan helmet he brought earlier was obviously hit by a rolling wooden stone when he was climbing the village, fell off the ladder, and hit his head on a stone when he fell, which caused the rattan helmet's eyes to be damaged.

"General Shi, are you okay? If you think it's inappropriate, you can bring it up, and you can change it to a lighter way. ”

Chen Kai was clearly an agitated general, but with Shi Lang's temper, he refused to fall behind, so he simply responded.

At the beginning of the experiment, there was no need to go to the city, what they wanted to experiment with was nothing more than the effect of being hit by a rolling wood stone, so Chen Kai simply asked someone to bring two watermelons over, put them on with the helmet, and motioned to a guard named Cai Qiao next to Zheng Chenggong to lift a wall brick of the city wall and smash it towards the helmet.

"Wait!"

"What's the matter, General Shi, is the stone too small?"

Chen Kai seemed to have figured out the trick of squeezing Shi Lang, a short-tempered guy with words, and the latter also raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but Zheng Chenggong was on the side, Shi Lang didn't dare to attack, so he simply said bluntly: "Didn't Chen Senjun say that your improved rattan helmet can have better protection for the soldier's head than the eight-petal iron helmet?" It is not convenient for our soldiers to use it for experiments, so let the prisoners wear it and try it. With watermelon, what is it. ”

As soon as these words came out, Chen Kaiden frowned, and then asked Shi Lang: "The captives are also living people, and they also have parents, wives and children. is as cruel as General Shi, this official is very strange why he didn't see it in the eyes of Huang Shuai, Hong Shuai, and Deputy General Su, it was born with you! ”

"You!"

"You two are still finished?!"

Shi Lang was furious, but was immediately stopped by Zheng Chenggong's angry shouting. As far as Zheng Chenggong is concerned, these two are arms, but Chen Kai and Shi Lang seem to be born to deal with each other, as long as they meet, they don't talk more than half a sentence, Zheng Chenggong even suspects that if these two get along well one day, he will go out to see if the sun comes out of the west.

"Those who resist the king's master, causing many injuries to the king's master, should be executed. But since it has been decided to let those captives serve hard labor, there is no need to harm their lives again, just use this watermelon! ”

Zheng Chenggong made a decision, and Shi Langzi couldn't say anything more. The next moment, Cai Qiao lifted the city brick and smashed it directly at the eight-petal helmet.

The city bricks are angular and angular, and the weight is really not light, and when they are smashed on the helmet, the watermelon below is clicking, and the juice is splashing everywhere, most of which is splashed on Cai Qiao's body.

Ignoring it, Cai Qiao lifted the city brick again, and smashed it on the rattan helmet as concocted, still cracking like an ear, and still splashing juice on his body, at first glance there was not much difference. However, when Cai Qiao took off the helmet, everyone looked at it again, but they were shocked.

"It can't be!"
