Chapter 227: The Beginning of Armor (Subscription Requested)

After the trip to the grassland, the warriors of the Tianlong tribe finally returned to their homeland after a long journey, and the victory drum was beaten, and in the sound of the drum, the warriors returned to the tribe with their heads held high.

But the thunderous sound of the drums frightened the wild horses who came to the tribe for the first time enough, and the horses almost ran away, but fortunately, the crowd was pacified early, so the camp was not bombed.

"Wu! You see, this is Lightning and its tribe, majestic enough! ”

When this witch was still annoyed by the drums that almost bombed the camp just now, Wang Tian greeted him cordially as if there was no such thing.

"Oh, good, lightning isn't it! Good name, good name, that who, hurry up and get the forage to entertain the new members of the tribe! ”

This is just what Wu said deliberately in order to alleviate the embarrassment, in fact, there is no one else around him at this moment except the Son of Heaven, of course, except for the five divine dogs and the big tiger and the little tiger.

These 7 little things were not enough to cause the panic of the wild horse herd, but they still surprised the horses who came to the Tianlong tribe for the first time, whether it was a human or an animal in this era, there was always something to make them stunned when they came to the Tianlong tribe for the first time.

In fact, as soon as they entered the tribe, in order to appease the frightened horses, the fermented green fodder was already waiting in their new home, and animals, like people, there was nothing that could not be appeased by one meal, and if there were, then two.

What made Wang Tian slightly disappointed was the two little girls, as soon as they came back, they turned everyone's luggage upside down, and looked for the gift that the Son of Heaven said with high interest.

Fortunately, Wang Tianyan was quick, and selected the best fox skin from a pile of skins as quickly as possible, plus the previous piece of wolf skin, and gave it to the two girls as if offering treasures.

But the expressions on the faces of the two of them still couldn't help but be a little disappointed, Wang Tian couldn't help it, in any dynasty, it was not difficult to find two gifts to make girls happy, but who said that now is the primitive era of poverty and whiteness......

"Son of heaven, I forgot about the horse just now, so I beat the drum ......"

Seeing that Wu was still embarrassed by what happened just now, Wang Tian hurriedly said: "Wu, it's okay, the horses will have to get used to the drums sooner or later, and they will be knocked on them three times a day in the future, so that they can get used to it as soon as possible." ”

Wang Tian's words are not purely to comfort the witch, the biggest use of horses is to use the military, to hear the drum and march, to sing gold to collect troops, this is the most basic means of commanding cold weapon warfare, in this era of communication purely by roaring, action basically by walking, sound, beacon, and flag language is the language of long-distance communication.

These will be applied in the military training of the Tianlong tribe in the future, even in ancient times, after having gunpowder, the horses must also undergo the corresponding gunpowder explosion adaptation training, otherwise these horses who have just entered the battlefield, before the enemy's attack has fully begun, the horses themselves will be messed up with the knights on their backs, how can this battle be fought? 【~!

"Wu, in the past few days we have been gone, nothing has happened in the tribe!" Wang Tian asked with some unease.

"It's nothing, it's just the cry of wild beasts in the mountains and forests at night, it's just loud these days, and it is estimated that those fierce beasts are finding more and more difficult food."

Hearing Wu say this, Wang Tian nodded, this is an inevitable result, but the tribe does not need to face these beasts in winter for food, with the protection of the wall, no matter how fierce they scream, they will not pose a threat.

"Brother Tianzi hurry up and tell us a story, it's so boring these days!" In this winter, except for teasing a few god dog Taro and big and small tiger Jean, there is really no other entertainment, and you can spin gauze during the day, and the two girls will stare at each other at night

And after following Wang Tian for a long time, they have long been used to going to bed later, so this is the time when they miss Wang Tian very much.

"Okay, but can I get some food, and I'll tell you about this time in the grassland while eating!" Wang Tian touched his stomach with his hand, and made a pitiful look to win the sympathy of the two girls.

"Brother Tianzi, wait a minute, the lark will serve you soup, Wu doesn't know that you will come back so late, all the food must be made at zero hour!"

"Oh, then I'll tell Wu and you about this operation first!"

At this moment, the lark was holding a tray with two bowls in it, one bowl of fish soup and the other bowl of braised wolf meat.

Since there was a bronze alloy, the copper pot was naturally cast, and the stir-fried vegetables in the tribe became the staple food, Wu looked at this way of eating, and felt that it was a bit of a waste, in his eyes, stewed soup is the most reasonable way to eat.

Although there is no shortage of food in the tribe now, the thrifty Wu is still living a careful life, and Wang Tian also knows this about the Wu, you may change a person's opinion, especially an old man's opinion.

In Wang Tian's view, as long as grain becomes the staple food and meat becomes a "vegetable" in the future, Wu's idea will naturally disappear.

Sitting around him were two genius children, Kuroko and Zhou, both of whom had eager expressions, and Wang Tian knew that he had something to say to himself.

But both of them were patiently waiting for the Son of Heaven to report the trip to Wu, and they didn't mean to interrupt him.

"Wu, on this trip to the grassland, we met the people of the sheep tribe, and the food they stored this year didn't seem to be enough, so we united with the Youniu clan to carry out a hunting operation with them, and the skins brought back today, except for more than 10 wolf skins, all the others were the prey caught in this hunt."

The words of the Son of Heaven surprised everyone, originally Wu thought that these skins were exchanged with Youniu's clan, but he didn't expect that such a large number was just the result of a hunt.

"Son of Heaven, what about the meat?"

The shrewd witch only saw that the skin was not the flesh, so he naturally couldn't help but ask out loud.

"I didn't want meat, as long as I had these skins, firstly, it was difficult to carry the long distance, and secondly, because both of their tribes lacked food, and the sheep tribe almost fought with us because of food......"

Wang Tian took it

Let's tell Wu in detail about the process of the matter, and Wu was extremely angry after hearing that the sheep tribe wanted to plunder the Son of Heaven as a hostage.

Thinking about what the Son of Heaven told him before, now that everything seems to have become a reality, there are several attacks by the Niu clan, the ill-will of the sheep tribe, and Wu also feels that his neighbors are all a pack of wolves.

"Son of Heaven, the Sheep Tribe and the Youniu Clan are a group of insatiable wolves, why are you still so good to them, although we are not short of food, there is no need to cheapen this group of bastards!"

The more Wu spoke, the more angry he became, not caring at all about the feeling of the lark sitting next to the Son of Heaven, Wang Tian gently held Yun'er's hand, he did not have the slightest reservation when he narrated the matter, but when facing Yun'er, he couldn't ignore her feelings.

"Wu, anyway, these two tribes have not caused us any losses, if you can help, you can help, the River tribe has a good impression of us, and there is no hostility at all, the tribe's housing at this stage can only accommodate them One tribe to join, take your time!"

In front of the lark, Wang Tian didn't say the word annexation, but Wu had already understood what he meant, the annexation of the tribe also took time to digest, and the steps were too big, and it was easy to get involved.

When Wang Tian said that the Youniu clan had launched another attack on the Tianlong tribe, her expression did not change, but when Wang Tian said these words later, Wang Tian obviously felt her body tremble.

Wang Tian whispered in her ear: "Don't worry, there were no casualties this time, and I also saw your mother, but in that case, I didn't say anything." ”

"After a few days when the people in the tribe are familiar with the horses, let them send the remaining salted fish to Youniu, and by the way, take your mother over to reunite with you, is it okay?"

The lark nodded slightly, she was already very grateful for Wang Tian's thoughtfulness, her tribe attacked several times, the Son of Heaven didn't care, and wanted to send them salt, of course she knew why.

"Thank you!" The lark said softly in an inaudible voice, and Wang Tian looked at her gaze and smiled slightly:

"Silly girl, I'm just afraid that they will kill the cows, these cows are all treasures, it's a pity to kill and eat meat, but tomorrow I can make you beef offal soup to eat..."

"What are you two whispering again?" Ling'er on the other side felt left out, and suddenly said with a displeased face.

"It's nothing, I said that tomorrow I will cook you a delicious beef offal soup, and that fox skin is good to use to make a beautiful scarf, Ling'er, by the way, you can help the lark add that silver-gray wolf skin to make a cloak, I'm full, Kuroko, Zhou, don't you have something to say to me?" Let's go, let's go! ……”

Wang Tian threw the bowl away, grabbed the two of them and ran away, otherwise he didn't know what would happen next.

……

Entering his room, Wang Tian glanced at the two of them, "Who said first?" ”

"Son of God, you have made all the molds ready, when you take a look, you can pour it

Built. ”

The first to speak was Kuroko, who Wang Tian had instructed him to make molds for casting armor when he left the tribe on his way to the grasslands.

Armor is from the Tang Dynasty _ began, for leather armor and iron armor collectively, before that the leather armor, iron juice for the armor, to the Tang Dynasty armor shape has been very diverse, according to the "Tang Liudian" recorded thirteen kinds: that is, Mingguang armor, scale armor, mountain armor, black hammer armor, white cloth armor, soap silk armor, cloth back armor, infantry armor, leather armor, wooden armor, lock to armor, horse armor, mainly for infantry cavalry.

This trip to the grassland still made Wang Tian really feel the threat of bows and arrows to the lives of the tribesmen, although the metal armor with bronze as the main material was not the mainstream production material for armor in later generations.

But for the complex connection method of the armor, it is still a good way to experiment with bronze alloy first, and the threat faced by the Tianlong tribe at this stage is actually enough to deal with it with rattan armor.

The reason why Wang Tian started to make metal armor was entirely so that he could crush all his opponents in the future.

For the production of armor, Wang Tian is limited to appearance, and there are not many suggestions that can be made, chain mail and the famous Mingguang armor are what Wang Tian wants to develop the most.

Chain mail is also known as "ring lock armor" in ancient China. Generally, it is made of iron wire or iron ring buckle to form a garment, and each ring is buckled with the other four rings, shaped like a net lock, and the production materials of different civilizations are not the same.

The style of this armor is a foreign product, which was introduced to China from the Western Regions, and the earliest record is found in the "Armor Table of the First Emperor's Ministers".

Its biggest advantage is that it covers the whole body, including the face, and because the material connected is also metal, it is of great significance in this era of many fierce people, and Wang Tian hopes that it can minimize casualties.

Of course, there is still no knowledge of his process, Wang Tian just asked Heizi to make molds for helmets, wrists, knees, clips like Yu Ning, etc., and the specific connection and production methods need to be explored step by step.

Wang Tian felt that the current population base in the tribe was not large, and the two young geniuses of Zhou and Heizi could be born, as long as the population of the tribe continued to grow, Wang Tian believed that there would be no shortage of all kinds of talents.

But at this stage, it is obviously impossible for him to let the dozens of existing people in the tribe do nothing and study these things......
