After this set of armor was taken out, the eyes of the guards around Wang Tong lit up, "Everyone is a martial artist, so they naturally know what luxury this represents." Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is good that ordinary soldiers in the Ming Dynasty can have cotton jackets, and officers and colonels wear cotton armor on the placket, outer cover or inner coat of town armor, and then scale armor or mountain armor, this kind of wear, even a military general of the guerrilla level may not have.

However, the armor of cotton armor, shop armor, scale armor and mountain armor, if it was hit by a fire gun, it would not be able to prevent it at all, and it could not be resisted by spear stabbing and knife slashing at close range, but the rather rough armor in front of him was completely different.

Wearing the armor of the straw man, he was stabbed by a spear, he was slashed by a big knife, if he didn't stand still, he couldn't break the armor at all, and he was basically only forced to open a small pit in the armor with a bow and arrow, and he couldn't break the armor within thirty steps with the Ming Dynasty's bird gun.

You must know that if this bird gun is made by a good craftsman, but it is claimed to break through the armor like grass within a hundred steps, but it is also blocked by this armor, but the foreign soldiers take out the fire gun as thick as a small arm and hold it with a fork, so that a hole can be opened in the armor.

"This armor only uses two pieces of iron, is shaped and punched with a press, and then tied to the sand field on the body with a leather rope, which can protect the armor man's thoughtfulness, this set also has a waist skirt, arm and shin guards, helmets, and is completely draped, and the chance of surviving on the battlefield will be a little greater."

Ren Yuan explained with a smile on the side, he also noticed the preoccupation of Wang Tong and his people Wang Tong nodded, and then went to touch the dent on the armor, and asked:

"Does this armor have a name?"

Ren Yuan leaned over and said:

"These people are vulgar, but they are named after their talents, and they are called 'plate armor', but the lower officials want to ask the adults to name them, so that they can be passed down for generations. ”

Wang Tongtong patted the iron armor with his hand and said:

"What's the use of circulating for centuries, it's important to be able to block the fight on the battlefield, the name of the plate armor is good, if you don't think it's majestic enough, it's called the tiger armor!!"

The surrounding craftsmen all shouted hello, Wang Tong thought for a while, and then asked:

"If this sloppy armor has something wrong on the battlefield and will be investigated in the future, do you have any means to find a craftsman?"

Ren Yuan was stunned for a moment, but he read a lot of books, and he also had quick wisdom, remembering what Wang Tong said before, and replied immediately:

"As the Lord said before, the armor-maker put a mark on the armor, and then traced it with this mark."

Wang Tong nodded, opened his mouth and said in a solemn voice:

"Every process, every craftsman, and everyone who inspects and receives the goods, etc., must leave a mark, and if something happens, they will be punished for escaping from the battle!"

Qiao Da on the side hurriedly agreed, Ren Yuan pondered for a while, and said with a smile:

"Lord Wang's method is very similar to the law that binds craftsmen in the Qin period, and with military law, there must be no mistakes."

"Not only A, but everything made in the workshop must be used in this way, not only on my side, but also on your side."

Wang Tong's own workshop, the rules are naturally set by himself, but Ren Yuan is the official family's craftsman's workshop, Ren Yuan was originally elated, but when he said this, he sighed, shook his head and said: "My lord, this method is indeed a good policy, but it is too difficult to implement it in the official workshop." ”

The affairs of the official family naturally have such and such difficulties, although Wang Tong is also in charge of the side, but he also knows that this matter is really troublesome, but he does not force it, and his own A workshop makes a good example and will slowly promote it in the future. "Come on, the craftsman has made a set of armor specially for the master, please try it on."

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stiff, Qiao Da said with a smile on the side, he stretched out his hand to greet him, someone had already prepared, and several young apprentices came to Wang Tongyun's side with the plate armor on the wooden frame.

The Western armor in that life was all covered as if it was an iron man, just showing the eyes, and the one in front of me only had a helmet, breastplate, waist skirt, wrist guards and shins, but it was much simpler.

The style is simple and simple, but there are a lot of decorations on it, since it is for the king to use universally, the patterns on it are complicated, and there are tiger head reliefs, gorgeous and abnormal. "Wear it, sir!!"

Not only the craftsmen are talking, but even the surrounding guards are shouting, it is the nature of martial artists to like weapons and armor, and seeing such good armor, although they may not be able to get a piece of armor at home, it is also good to see Lord Wang wearing it.

With the help of the craftsmen, Wang Tong put on the armor, the armor was polished and shiny, and when worn on the body, it was extremely powerful, and the weight of this armor was not light, but it was okay for the military year of the Huwei battalion.

Seeing Wang Tong's majestic appearance, the personal guards were all applauding, Wang Tong walked a few steps, took out a knife to try the flexibility of the joints, and asked, "How many sets have been made now?" Before Qiao Dahe could answer, Wang Tong said: "Twenty cannons have been made, and only twenty sets of armor have been made, and only three firecrackers have been made now, which is too slow." ”

He has been busy everywhere since the beginning of the year, but the detailed report of the workshop has always been concerned, the creation of cold weapons and the casting of cannons are okay, but the Franc machine fire gun and this plate armor are too slow.

As soon as he heard Wang Tong ask this, Qiao Da's face was immediately a little embarrassed, Ren Yuan cleared his throat on the side, and said:

"It's no wonder that Master Qiao is procrastinating, the triangle is civilized here, the soil by the river is soft, let's start digging ditches to lay waterways, the number of roads on the Fanren side is the first time we do here, everything is groping, and there are all kinds of troubles after completion, until half a month ago, it was not smooth, this armor and fire gun also have an iron thing, after the Fanren craftsmen saw the iron, they said that it was not suitable, and they could only be used after our blacksmith shop forged it." Wang Tong nodded, Qiao Da watched his face improve, and then interjected:

"A few masters plan to build another iron furnace and use their methods to make iron, the furnace only burned the day before yesterday, and when the iron is produced over there, everything will be soon."

Hearing this Wang Tong is always a little helplessly uncomfortable, in this era, has the technological gap between the East and the West been slowly widened?

Wang Tong stretched out his hand and patted his breastplate, shook his head and said with a smile:

"What do you have to say, you don't have to engage in these tricks to please the official, do you want to make this set of armor to please the official, and then let me not ask about other things, how much artificial silver does these patterns and carvings cost, it is also good to have this kung fu to make some swords and spears, our Huwei Camp does not engage in these exaggerated and false decorations, just do some things." Seeing that Wang Tong's expression was not stern, but just admonished, Qiao Da relieved himself.

Although the workshop has played tricks, they have been doing things, but it is just a normal progress, so Wang Tong will also say a few words.

Today, after seeing the machinery in the water and seeing the plate armor, Wang Tong was in a good mood, ordered his subordinates to take off their armor, and said with a smile: "The weather is good, don't be in a hurry to go to the barracks and the market to have a look."

After the thing was done, at ten o'clock up to code words, arms can not be raised, barely enough to write the number of words of full attendance, at that time in Europe and the Ming Dynasty iron smelting, there is a problem of charcoal and coal as fuel, which determines the amount of carbon and the quality of iron.
