In addition to the horses, two pairs of double plunges and three sabers were captured in this battle, which Yang He was more concerned about. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

These two bows are actually still small bows, but they are well maintained, Yang He pulled, and the bowstrings of the bow body are well maintained, so that the bow strength has been maintained.

Han Daxia praised on the side: "A pair of five-force bows, a pair of seven-force bows, the bow body is baked properly, and they are all good bows." ”

He looked at the bow and arrow in Yang He's hand, and there was a look of longing in his eyes.

Yang He nodded, in addition to the upper, middle and lower calculation of the bow force in the Ming Dynasty, it was mostly calculated by "individual force", which was different from the previous stone bucket.

"Cover the strength of the bow and arrow, and want it to be commensurate. The bow of the ancients measured the strength of stones, and the bow of today measured the strength of a force, nine catties and four taels for one force, and ten forces for one stone ......"

- Ming, Li Chengfen "Archery"

If converted, a pound in the Ming Dynasty was about 1.3 pounds in later generations, a force was almost 12 pounds, and a stone bow was 120 pounds, which was about 110 pounds of pulling force in later generations.

This is stronger than the Zhongli bow, but it does not meet the Qing army's ten-force bow standard, because they have a "force", also called "strength", which is calculated according to ten catties.

The two bows that were captured, one with a strength of eighty pounds and seven bows, and one with a strength of sixty pounds and five bows, were also very good.

He played with it for a while, hung the five-force bow on the right front of the saddle, used it as his own horse bow, and then handed the seven-force bow to Minister Yang: "Minister, this seven-force bow is for you, and your bow is for Lao Han." ”

Minister Yang happily took it: "Young Master Xie." ”

He couldn't put it down, and cracked his mouth: "Now that the young master has a horse, and he has a bow, hehe...... My old Yang also changed to a hard bow to play tricks......"

Han Daxia took the bow and quiver replaced by Minister Yang, and he was also happy, he could see that the foundation of this bow was very good, but it was not properly maintained and became what it is now, if the fire is properly baked, it can also restore the original bow strength, but now there is no condition.

Seeing the happy appearance of the two, Yang He smiled slightly, now that he and Minister Yang have hard bows, and they also have horse bows, their combat effectiveness has increased dramatically.

Minister Yang replaced the fifty-pound bow to Han Daxia, and he added another archer, adding more combat power to the army.

Han Daxia happily played with bows and arrows, and all the young people watched with envy, but none of them knew how to use bows and arrows, and it was useless to double insert them into them.

Yang He looked at the sabers again, he took out a saber and looked at it, the whole knife is about one meter long, showing a curved scimitar shape, the blade is made of fine iron, and the blade is also wrapped with steel, which is considered to be excellent. However, the overall weight is very light, and the blade is not wide, so it looks relatively light.

Sure enough, it is a saber, only suitable for horse fighting, he pulled out all three knives to see, the whole is the same, and they are all bladed, it seems that these horse thieves are old bandits.

Generally, veterans only use sabers with open blades, after all, it is not easy to use knives immediately, and if they are not used well, it is easy to hurt themselves and horses under their hips.

In particular, some novices are prone to use too much force, so that the saber is stuck in the enemy's flesh and cannot be pulled out, so the veteran uses the sword-cut saber with the help of horsepower to drag a long hole in the passing person, instead of slashing.

Of course, in the face of an opponent in heavy armor, this light saber is useless, and must be replaced with a thick-backed saber, and it can only be cut, not cut.

Yang He hung a saber on the left front of the saddle, his saber can actually be used as a saber, but it is still a little heavier to use on a horse, it is better to use a professional saber, and wait until you may encounter an enemy wearing iron armor.

He didn't move the other two sabers, and he didn't plan to distribute them to everyone in the army, and it was better to use an ordinary waist knife to fight on the ground with this light and agile saber.

He also looked at the captured waist knife, which he had obtained from the bandits' sword and shield hand, and it was not much different from the three waist knives captured from the hands of the soldiers.

The last three spears, imitating the standard in the army, are one zhang long, the spearhead is shaped like a duck's beak, and the general wrought iron is made, Yang He plans to use this captured waist knife for Han Guan'er, and the three spears are distributed like a spear.

Everyone gathered around the pile of seizures and talked excitedly, and Minister Yang also took a red cloak and looked left and right.

It was a cloak, a cloak, with a hood and a thick wool at the collar, which seemed quite warm in the early winter, but it was seized from the horse thief who wore a blue folded scarf.

He also grabbed a red tasseled felt hat and looked at it, obviously considering whether to change the hat.

Minister Yang actually prefers the red tasseled felt hat, but the red hat on his head is brushed with tung oil, which has a strong ability to prevent rain and water, but this red tasseled felt hat cannot be compared, think about it or forget it.

Yang He also looked at these two hats, the red tasseled felt hat was originally used by the military of the Song Dynasty, and it was more popular among the people, but the military was red, and it was brushed with tung oil or raw lacquer, and it was white for civilian use, and it was generally not painted and oiled.

Looking at this pile of seizures, Yang He thought about it, or let Yan Dezheng be responsible for managing and picking up the military equipment in China, such as knives, guns, sticks, etc., which can't always be pressed on Zhao Zhongju and others.

Yan Dezheng originally taught children, and usually led a few old and weak people to collect with Sun Zhaodi and others, but now that there are more women in the army, and some military equipment is also more, it is better to let him manage this section.

They are not as capable as the young and strong, but it is still possible to bring some old and weak soldiers to serve as baggage soldiers.

Yan Dezheng hurriedly received the order, his Hun family's grandson Zhaodi was happy to watch, she always thought that her husband was useless when he went out to collect with her, and the ideal thing was that he was responsible for teaching children, and not to do anything else.

This is obviously impossible, and it is better to retreat to the next best thing, and to manage and be responsible for some military supplies.

Yang He decided to put away these materials first, and then distribute the rewards after entering the abandoned village.

Now the division of labor in the army is also clear, Zhao Zhongju and Yan Dezheng are responsible for both military and civilian logistics, of course, Minister Yang is in charge of the law and military discipline, approves the harvest, and any material in the army has the power to inventory and supervise.

……

Three days later, Yang He left the place and led the group on the road again.

When the crowd left, there was also a change in the image, that is, each person was equipped with a shield.

The style of the shield is simple, square and round, large and small, and they are all ordinary wooden board materials.

After treating the wounded that day, Yang He ordered the dead to be buried, and then they entered the abandoned village in front of them, conducted a great search, found wooden doors and windows from many abandoned houses, and made a large number of shields.

After careful consideration, Yang He finalized two types of shields.

The first is a large wooden shield used by women and children, the shield is quite large, which can effectively protect the whole body.

In addition to the inner grip, this shield is also equipped with a rope shoulder strap, the length of the shoulder rope can be adjusted, the shield is carried on the body when marching, and the live rope is tightened so that the shield does not shake behind him.

When encountering an enemy, release the live rope and move the shield to protect yourself.

One is a round shield, which is used by young people, and it also has a live rope with a shoulder belt, which can be carried on the back.

Considering the needs of combat, in addition to the inner grip, the round shield is also equipped with two rings, and the round shield is placed on the left arm when used, which can reduce the difficulty of holding the shield.

This kind of shield, which can be carried and adjusted to the length of the back rope, aroused the curiosity of the refugees.

At this time, the shield is mostly handheld, that is, the shield used by the cavalry, and it is mostly hung on the saddle, this shield is anti-arrow at the same time, and it does not prevent both hands from using bows and arrows, spears, and clubs, which is very convenient, so that many young people can't put it down.

In fact, these shields are very rough and simple, most of them are a wooden plank, and the shoulder strap on the back is also made of discarded hemp rope cloth, but Yang He does not require how good these shields are, just block the direct shooting of ordinary bows and arrows, and the general wooden board material can meet the needs.

So during these three days, the shields made by the people were basically one hand to everyone, even to every woman.

With the shield, everyone is also much more relieved, and the next time they encounter a horse thief throwing arrows, they will not be so passive.

In three days, everyone also cleaned and made a lot of bandages, and Han Daxia led people to find a lot of herbs, and next time someone was injured, he would be much calmer.
