In the barracks, five days passed in the blink of an eye. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

During these five days, Lu Zheng had to train every day from early in the morning until the sun went down. Coordination of this formation, personal skills, cooperation with crossbowmen, cooperation with large shields and gourd soldiers, various formation changes, etc.

With Lu Zheng's physical strength, these things can't tire him. But the recruits of this team are different, they are tired and crying fathers and mothers, and every day as soon as the training is over, they run back to the camp and fall asleep.

At the end of the training that night, most of the people had gobbled up their meals, and went to bed when they returned to the camp.

After Lu Zheng had eaten, he slipped to a campfire not far from the camp tent, and there were two crossbowmen chatting in front of the fire.

When one of the younger crossbowmen saw Lu Zheng coming, he immediately smiled and shouted happily, "Brother Lu, you're here!" ”

Lu Zheng also smiled slightly, and said, "Xiaoshan, why didn't you two go back to sleep?" ”

Xiaoshan pulled a shield from the side and handed it to Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng took it, put it on the ground directly, and sat down.

Xiao Shan pointed to the crossbowman next to him and said, "Brother Lu, he is my own brother, Yang Dashan." ”

Lu Zheng clasped his fists and saluted, and said, "Brother Dashan, my name is Lu Zheng." ”

Yang Dashan hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, and said, "Brother Lu, I know you." Our brothers in the bow and crossbow battalion know that you are powerful and skillful! ”

Lu Zheng smiled and said: "It's just brute force, both of you brothers have come to be soldiers, who will take care of your parents at home?" Do you have any brothers in your family? ”

Yang Xiaoshan spoke: "There is also an older sister and a younger brother in the family. They are taking care of their mother, and their father has already ......" At this, Xiaoshan choked up and couldn't go on.

Yang Dashan glanced at Xiaoshan and said, "My father died in a war with the Jin people last year......

Lu Zheng's body suddenly shook, and his heart was very uncomfortable. It turned out that the brothers were sons inheriting their father's business, and the family was all in the army to defend the country, and their father had died on the battlefield.

Lu Zheng said slowly: "Two brothers, I'm sorry, I don't know ......"

Yang Dashan shook his head, interrupted Lu Zheng's speech, and said, "Brother Lu, it's okay." ”

Xiaoshan wiped his eyes and said, "My father often told us that neither the Liao, Jin, or Xixia people are good things, and they are all coveting our Dahua land. My father wanted us all to be men and protect our mothers, sisters and brothers. ”

Lu Zheng nodded and said, "Where are you from and where is your home?" ”

Yang Dashan opened his mouth and said: "We are from Hejian Mansion, we moved to Zhending Mansion three years ago, and now our home is in the east of Zhending Mansion. ”

At this moment, Wednesday Zhu came over from a distance, and said as he walked: "You two, go back to sleep quickly, the border is in an emergency, we are likely to leave early." ”

Yang Dashan and Yang Xiaoshan hurriedly got up and packed up the things around them. Lu Zheng also stood up and handed the shield to Yang Xiaoshan.

The two brothers ran to sleep, and Wednesday Zhu came to Lu Zheng and said, "Brother Lu Zheng, Shen Lao asked me to bring you a message and tell you to go to the baggage camp to find him." ”

Lu Zheng clasped his fists and saluted, and said, "Thank you, Brother Zhou." Brother Zhou just said that the border is in an emergency, what's going on? ”

Zhou Zhu glanced left and right, and after making sure that there was no one else around, he whispered: "This time, not only the Khitans attacked the border pass, but the Jin country also inexplicably sent a large number of troops, and now it is approaching Yanmen Pass!" ”

Lu Zheng frowned suddenly, and said, "I know, Brother Zhou, I'll go to Shen Lao first, if you have something, you can go to me." ”

Wednesday Zhu nodded and said, "Well, you can go." ”

Lu Zheng strode towards the baggage camp, because he was a little anxious, so he walked faster and faster, and soon arrived at the blacksmith camp of the baggage camp.

Shen Lao had already made the hanging axe and iron belt that Lu Zheng wanted, and also built the horizontal knife. Lu Zheng tried the iron belt and felt that it was very suitable.

The innermost part of this iron belt is made of three layers of cowhide, and the outer part is inlaid with thick iron sheets. The entire iron belt is shaped like a crossed backpack strap, and a wide belt is attached underneath.

The horizontal knife is also impeccable, and Shen Lao's craftsmanship is indeed extraordinary. Lu Zheng picked out a thicker piece of scrap iron from the ground and stood next to the blacksmith furnace.

Shen Lao looked at Lu Zheng tinkering with iron pieces there, he didn't know what Lu Zheng was going to do, and asked curiously, "Lu Zheng, what are you doing here?" ”

Lu Zheng smiled, waved the horizontal knife in his hand, and said, "Try Shen Lao's craftsmanship." ”

As he spoke, Lu Zheng picked up the horizontal knife in his hand and stabbed it at the piece of iron.

The sound of metal colliding in Shen Lao's imagination did not come. The horizontal knife in Lu Zheng's hand, when it pierced the iron piece, made a dull and short "poof" sound.

Lu Zheng took back the horizontal knife and carefully looked at the tip of the knife, and found that the tip of the horizontal knife was not damaged at all. Lu Zheng sincerely admired: "Shen Lao is really good at craftsmanship!" ”

Shen Lao smiled and said, "It's still your strength, and speed is the key." If I had to stab it, it would never have been like this! ”

Lu Zheng put the knife into the sheath, carried the iron belt, and solemnly hugged his fists and said: "Thank you Shen Lao, when we finish this tough battle, I will set up a banquet to thank Shen Lao!" ”

Shen Lao patted Lu Zheng on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Creating a weapon to kill the enemy for you is originally my business, so let's talk about thanks." By the way, I don't think your helmet seems to fit well these days, so I'll help you build one, you can try it! ”

As he spoke, Shen Lao turned around and took out a helmet from a cabinet, as well as a very small and delicate long shield, and handed them to Lu Zheng together.

Lu Zheng took the helmet and took a closer look, and was suddenly pleasantly surprised. This helmet is made of stainless steel at first glance, the helmet wall is twice as thick as the average helmet, and the most important thing is that this helmet also creates a visor, a mighty tiger head armor!

This armor is exquisitely designed, and it can be picked up and stuck on top of the helmet in normal times, and when it is pulled to the end during combat, it will naturally get stuck. When you want to pull it up, you just need to press the mechanism on the side of the helmet.

If you look closely at the long strip of shield, you will see that it is an arm shield! The shield is also made of stainless steel and is fitted with a leather strap that is attached to the arm.

Lu Zheng's helmet has always been out of fit, too big. The careful Shen Lao actually discovered this problem, and he specially created one. At the same time, he also helped himself build an arm shield.

Lu Zheng was grateful in his heart, solemnly clenched his fists, and bowed deeply to Shen Lao.

Shen Lao helped Lu Zheng up, reached out and took the arm shield in Lu Zheng's hand, pointed to the three small openings at the front end of the arm shield, and said: "This arm shield hides three bone-penetrating steel cones, which are extremely powerful and can break heavy armor. You look at the three raised steel points on the side, as long as you press it, you can fire. It can be fired in unison, or single, and several cones can be sent by pressing a few points. ”

Lu Zheng looked at this exquisite arm shield, listened to Shen Lao's words, his heart was excited, and just about to speak, Shen Lao interrupted Lu Zheng again.

Shen Lao turned over the arm shield, pointed inside, and said, "After you finish firing, you only need to remove the arm shield, open the interlayer inside, pull back the tension spring, and you can refill the bone-penetrating steel cone again." ”

"You can pull the strapping spring of this arm shield with one hand. When I put on the tension spring, I asked my two apprentices to pull it up together......"

Lu Zheng was suddenly surprised, it seems that this arm shield is also specially built for himself, Shen Lao is really very attentive to himself.

These exquisite things only took five days in total, and Lu Zheng took a closer look at Shen Lao's bloodshot eyes, and Lu Zheng understood. Shen Lao has probably not rested much in the past five days!

Thinking of this, Lu Zheng's heart was extremely moved. Lu Zheng took a step back, knelt on one knee, put down the helmet in his hand, and solemnly bowed with both hands in fists: "Lu Zheng will definitely live up to Shen Lao's expectations, I should use the weapon that Shen Lao built for me to go into battle to kill the enemy, in order to repay Shen Lao's kindness." ”

Shen Lao came over to help Lu Zheng up, and said slowly: "I'm old, I can't go into battle to kill the enemy." In this war, it is the common people who suffer! I think my poor grandson died in the chaos back then......"

Speaking of this, Shen Lao was already a little choked. Shen Lao took a deep breath and continued: "When I saw that day you could pick up the tiger and wolf axe, I knew that God blessed me Dahua and bestowed us with such a fierce general. The situation at the border this time is not trivial, so you have to be more careful. ”

Lu Zheng nodded and did not speak again. Lu Zheng knew that it was pointless to say more thanks now, this old man took so much trouble to create things for himself, he hoped that he could protect the land and the people!

At this time, a Liu Ge's personal guard came outside and ordered Lu Zheng to go to the tent to obey orders.

Lu Zheng took the iron belt on his back, stepped on the horizontal knife, put on the helmet arm shield, and turned around to leave.

Shen Lao suddenly remembered something, grabbed Lu Zheng, and said, "You wait!" ”

Shen Lao ran to the cabinet just now, took out a small bag, and handed it to Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng pinched the bag with his hand, and he already knew that it contained a bone-penetrating steel cone.

Lu Zheng solemnly clenched his fists again, saluted Shen Lao, and then stopped talking and turned to leave.

Shen Lao looked at the back of Lu Zheng leaving, and muttered, "If my grandson doesn't die, he should be your age now......"

Lu Zheng followed the guards to the handsome tent, and when he entered, he found that Li Liang and Chen Tieniu were also there.

Lu Zheng saluted all the officials one by one in accordance with the etiquette of the barracks.

Liu Ge beckoned to Lu Zheng and said, "Lu Zheng, come forward." ”

Lu Zheng was originally standing behind Li Liang and Chen Tieniu, but now that Liu Ge called him, he could only pass the two deputy generals and come to Liu Ge.

Liu Ge took a closer look at Lu Zheng and saw Lu Zheng's iron belt, horizontal knife, arm shield, and helmet, and then Liu Ge smiled knowingly and said, "You pull down the armor and take a look with me!" ”

Lu Zheng stretched out his hand and pulled down his armor and stood with his chest up.

Li Liang and Chen Tieniu had actually noticed Lu Zheng's new equipment a long time ago, and now they also walked to Lu Zheng's side curiously to watch.

Lu Zheng was originally tall and burly, but his white face was a bit like a scholar. Now pull down the tiger head armor, and wear a military uniform, suddenly looking majestic and domineering!

Li Liang couldn't help but admire: "Good! What a tiger general! ”

Chen Tieniu also smiled and said, "Sure enough, you have to block your scholarly face, so that you can look like a man and be domineering enough!" ”

"Ahem......" Liu Ge coughed and glanced at Chen Tieniu with slanted eyes.

Chen Tieniu immediately came back to his senses, his handsome man was also a scholar! I'm looking for excitement......

Chen Tieniu hurriedly slapped himself, and said with a hippie smile: "Look at my stinky mouth, hehe...... Don't be surprised! ”

Liu Ge had long been accustomed to Chen Tieniu's upright temperament, and he didn't care, looked at Lu Zheng, and said: "The tiger wolf axe with the tiger head helmet does have the spirit of a tiger general!" Shen Lao also bothered......"

Liu Ge stood up, turned to look at a map behind the handsome chair, and said, "I received a military report today, and the border is in an emergency!" Now the provinces and all roads have begun to order troops, and they will send troops tomorrow. As a commander, I must march with the army, but I am anxious ......"

Speaking of this, Liu Ge suddenly turned around suddenly, his eyes were sharp, and he said:

"Lu Zheng! You follow Yue Fei's vanguard, set off now, and rush to Yanmen Pass overnight! ”
