Time flies by like a white horse, and it slips away in your hands inadvertently.
In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.
It has entered the month of May, and in the next life, this is the sixth month of the solar calendar, and the flow of gold is like fire, and it is the season when the heaven and earth are as hot as a furnace.
"Tomorrow, it's the Dragon Boat Festival!" Lian Zining sat on the lobby of the Chenzi Hundred Households, half-squinting his eyes.
He has been an official for more than a month, and he has dozens of brothers under him, who follow the law, everyone obeys it, and he doesn't dare to disobey, and he is arrogant, and he has already cultivated a bit of bearing, which makes people know that they are very human at a glance.
"Lin Sanniang's Hun family, who is doing half-open business in the town, works as a gardener in Wang Dahu's mansion, and the small one spent ten taels of silver for him to find out the news. On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival in May, the head of the nursing home in Wang Dahu's mansion had to go out of the nest to buy white salt from the salt factory in Jiaodong, and personally escorted it, and it took more than a month to come back. After doing this ticket business, they will not go out again, and the next ticket will be the queen of autumn. Liu Liangchen half-bent over, stood in front of Lian Zining, and said in a low voice.
"Hmm!" Lian Zining nodded and said gently, "Thank you for your hard work." β
"The little ones don't dare!" Liu Liangchen's eyes showed a hint of emotion, and then hidden: "Adults are reinvented with the kindness of the small, if there is no adult, the small one is afraid that he will still have to live a life like this, the adult teaches us martial arts, gives us a job, and lets us know how to read, every brother is very grateful to the adult." β
"Huh!" Lian Zining smiled faintly, took out two ingots of silver from his arms and handed them to him: "Yao, take it!" β
"This?" Liu Liangchen hesitated and didn't dare to stretch out his hand.
Lian Zining glared at him: "Take it, don't grind and chirp like a girl, this money is not for you, it is for your mother." Your mother and his old man are seriously ill, take the money to grab some medicine to see a Langzhong, and after a while, I will not be busy, so I will go to visit her old man. β
Liu Liangchen's eyes turned red, he took the silver, knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times, his voice was already crying: "My lord, my lord, thank you for your great kindness, there is nothing to repay, and there is only this rotten life!" I, Liu Liangchen, swear here, that I am willing to die for adults in this life, if I violate this word, heaven and earth will be destroyed, and I will not die well! β
"Okay, they're all their own brothers, so don't see each other like this." Lian Zining got up, helped him up, patted him on the shoulder, and encouraged: "Follow this official, you will be useful in the future." β
Looking at Liu Liangchen's back as he walked out, Lian Zining smiled slightly, feeling a little happy in his heart, it was also a very proud thing to be able to completely pocket such a scheming and resourceful talent as Liu Liangchen!
Compared with when he took office a month ago, there was already a different scene in this lobby, the big green bricks on the ground were shining, a rosewood chair was placed in the right position, and on the wall behind was a picture of a fierce tiger descending the mountain. The four walls of the lobby have also been freshly painted, and the steps in front of the door have been removed from the grass to make it look clean and tidy.
Lian Zining walked out, the sound of assassination in the courtyard, the sharp sound of weapons breaking through the air was endless, more than thirty soldiers, divided into more than a dozen piles, three people in groups, each group was surrounded by a five-foot-high wooden stake. Each of them was armed with a red tassel spear, bent over, and was stabbing at the stake in front of them.
The soldiers were barely recognizable compared to a month earlier, their bodies stronger, and their shiny faces showed that they were unusually well nourished. More than a month of high-intensity training, has been enough for them to lose the fat on their bodies, strength is also a sharp increase, due to age restrictions, they have no longer grown, only to develop horizontally, everyone has grown a few laps, looks like a wooden pier.
They wore uniform military uniforms of the Ming army, with a layer of cotton armor nailed with bubble nails on the outside. Cotton armor is in line with the emergence of firearms, after the appearance of firearms on the Chinese battlefield, the traditional heavy armor became vulnerable, the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, the appearance of cloth armor with cloth on the outside, iron sheets on the inside, that is, the predecessor of cotton armor.
Out of the impression of the Eight Banners Cavalry, later generations often think that the cotton armor was used by the Qing army, but in fact, the cotton armor of the Qing army was originally captured from the Ming army, and later improved by itself. The success of cotton armor, or in the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty made cotton armor, take seven catties of cotton, use cloth in the jacket, sew the thick thread tightly, soak in the water, take out the paving, use the feet to be steady, no longer fat and swollen for the degree, dry to make a very thin cotton sheet. A number of such cotton sheets are decorated into a very thick and solid cotton cloth, and between the two layers of cotton cloth is an iron armor, which is fixed with copper nails inside and outside.
Cotton armor has a very good defensive effect on firearms, and it also has the effect of cold protection when worn in winter, and it is easy to make, inexpensive, and unlike traditional heavy armor, it needs to be tailor-made, which is convenient for mass production and light in weight.
Although this kind of cotton armor is not as strong as the rotten silver plate armor on Lian Zining's body, but the defense power of close combat is also expensive, Lian Zining once did an experiment, put a cotton armor on a wooden stake, Liu Liangchen stabbed hard, but it was only pierced into less than half an inch. Liu Liangchen's strength roughly represents the general level of the Ming army.
These cotton armors were exchanged for the regular silver handed over by Lian Zining, and on the fifth day after the regular silver was handed over, they were sent down by a small official from the military department, of course, Lian Zining knew that if there was no support from Dai Zhangpu, these armors would not fall into his hands even if they were rotten in the warehouse.
An unexpected joy is that since the military department where Chenzi Baihu is located reported fifty people, the armor issued is also fifty sets, and Lian Zining still has thirteen sets left.
He remembered an allusion, the wild boar Pinurhachi, who had been blown out in his own time and space, raised troops with thirteen pairs of armor, and he was talking about this kind of foam nail cotton armor. Such a bubble nail cotton armor, the whole world is only the Ming Dynasty under the Ministry of Industry under the Ordnance Bureau of skilled craftsmen can make it, out of the Ming Dynasty boundary, not seen at all, in the extreme north of the bitter cold land, the value is doubled. In the Mongolian steppe, such a pair of armor can be exchanged for fifty sheep, or five slaves. If it is the Jurchen surnamed San, who is rich in sand gold, it can be exchanged for gold of the same weight!
After the military reform of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Zhengde in order to strengthen the military power, on the one hand, reformed the military government, reduced redundant troops, and strengthened weapons and equipment on the other hand. However, now only the Beijing army battalion and the soldiers of the 24th Guard, as well as the border army of the important towns of the Nine Frontiers, have been equipped, and the local guards have not been popularized.
