Chapter 9 Customized Soldier Equipment
"Presumably this adult is Zhang Tuanrate, right?" the man asked, looking at the Tuanling armor on Zhang Han's body.
Zhang Han arched his hand and said, "Contemptible Zhang Han, I have seen Your Excellency." ”
"Hehe," the capable man smiled freely and easily: "In Xia Wanfu, I have seen General Zhang, and the general is invited to take a seat." ”
The man named Wanfu said as he turned sideways and let Zhang Han into the room.
At this time, there were three other men in the room, all dressed roughly, and when they saw Zhang Han coming in, they also got up and saluted.
"Xiao Er, serve the wine!" Na Wanfu shouted at the door.
Turning around, he looked at the very young Zhang Han and said: "The general is still a real young hero! ”
Zhang Han smiled faintly and said: "Brother Wan doesn't need to be polite, time is limited, so I'll get straight to the point, I don't know if any of the items that my brothers asked Brother Wan to find can be found?"
Hearing Zhang Han's words, Na Wanfu looked stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he said with a smile: "General Zhang is really fast-talking, but don't worry, you want most of the things we have brought." ”
With Wanfu's words, I saw a strong man sitting on Zhang Han's side bending down and taking out a sack from the ground, pulling it open, and dozens of vegetation plants of different shapes appeared in Zhang Han's eyes.
I saw Zhang Han's pupils condense, and he took out one of the vegetation plants and took a closer look.
After half a ring, "That's right, this is what I wanted." Zhang Han nodded and said.
What he was holding in his hand was a celestial star grass, which generally only grows in places with sufficient starlight, which has the effect of absorbing the essence of the stars and moons, and is also the main medicine for refining the elixir.
In fact, in the past few days, Zhang Han has been collecting these spiritual grasses, and even went out of the city several times to look for them in the mountains.
However, this thing in the Blue Star Rotten Street is not very common in this world, and it is only enough to find the materials for refining a pair of pills for Zhang Han, and there is even a lack of a few auxiliary medicines, which causes the effect of the Yunling Pill refined by Zhang Han to be greatly reduced, and this is the matter of looking for a caravan to collect.
Looking at Zhang Han's appearance as a treasure, the Wanfu people were a little surprised.
They also know these things, they are ordinary herbs for healing the body, but looking at Zhang Han's appearance, these things should not be so simple.
After half a ring, Zhang Han put the spirit grass back in the bag, looked sideways at Wan Fu and said, "How many more such things do you have?"
Listening to Zhang Han's question, Wanfu groaned and said: "It's not a secret, this thing is relatively rare in this barren frontier area, but as long as you enter the mainland, it is not difficult to find, if General Zhang uses a large amount, the brother can draw a horse team out to collect and escort, I don't know what General Zhang wants?"
"Good. Zhang Han nodded with satisfaction, and then asked, "How does Brother Wan charge?"
This time, Na Wanfu said without the slightest hesitation: "This thing is also quite abundant in the mainland, but the transportation distance is long, and there is a lot of manpower that needs to be mobilized, if General Zhang can trust me, how about receiving five taels of silver from General Zhang for each medicinal herb?"
"Five taels of silver?" Zhang Han frowned slightly.
The price of five taels of silver per plant Zhang Han felt that it was a bit high, according to the calculation that a furnace needs five elixirs, it is twenty-five taels of silver per furnace, and there are not many soldiers in his own army at present, if the troops are expanded by thousands or even tens of thousands in the future, the money required will be astronomical.
However, after groaning for a while, Zhang Han slowly took out five taels of gold from his arms and said, "If you can ensure the quality of medicinal materials and the supply demand, you will come at this price in the future." ”
"Hehe, General Zhang is refreshing, don't worry, my horse gang has been doing business for so many years, and I have never smashed my own signboard. ”
"When will the next batch of goods arrive?" asked Zhang Han with a calm face.
"At most, half a month, the next batch of goods will be delivered. Wanfu said affirmatively.
Nodding, Zhang Han stood up and thanked him, and left with a sack of spirit grass.
With this batch of spirit grass, it was enough for Zhang Han to refine the half-moon spirit pill, and with the support of this spirit pill, Zhao Feng and the others could also maintain better physical strength and devote themselves to training.
Walking out of the gate, Zhang Han did not immediately return to the camp, but walked for about twenty minutes to the outside of a blacksmith shop.
The standard equipment of the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty is a long spear and a short sword, and some of the soldiers equipped with shields also use small round shields, and the marching battle is also a clear camp, spearmen, swordsmen, and archers are each in a formation, such as Zhang Han, the formation of swords, shields and guns has never been mixed.
However, according to the formation of the soldiers taught by Zhang Han, these weapons are useless.
The blacksmith shop is not named, it is only two streets away from the camp, and the owner is a strong man in his fifties, and when Zhang Han came in, he was taking three apprentices to make a batch of horseshoes.
On the wall of the blacksmith shop, Zhang Han saw seven or eight kinds of weapons hanging scattered, most of which were mainly swords, and they looked quite exquisitely made.
Retracting his gaze, seeing that the boss and the others were busy and did not find out that they were coming, Zhang Han opened his mouth and shouted.
Hearing someone shouting, the boss immediately put down the hammer in his hand and looked sideways and said, "The official buys a sword?"
Zhang Han shook his head, stepped forward slowly, took out a cowhide roll from the armor and said, "I want to customize a batch of equipment, can the boss do it?"
"Oh. The boss replied with a swarthy face in surprise, it was the first time he had met someone from the army to order equipment.
Putting down the hammer in his hand, the boss stepped forward to open the drawings given by Zhang Han, and saw that there were five kinds of weapons such as knives, guns, shields, bows, and markers painted on them.
Although it is still a drawing, the boss's eyes lit up the first time he saw these weapons.
Good stuff.
The blacksmith boss thought silently.
I saw that the long knife drawn on the drawing was three feet long, made of stainless steel as needed, the blade was pitch black, the width should be about two fingers, the arc was small, and the blood groove was extremely deep, which was the authentic Tang knife on the Blue Star Continent.
This style of weapon had never appeared in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the owner of the iron shop was also very shocked when he looked at it.
Then looking down, the blacksmith saw a heavy shield, two feet wide and one meter long, with a sharp spike painted on the shield surface, which looked like the horn of a rhinoceros, which was equally terrifying, and it was not difficult for the blacksmith to imagine how badly he would have been hit by this shield.
After looking at it for a while, the guns and bows below were not far from the styles used in the Great Zhou Dynasty now, but the one-meter-long javelin, which was all made of fine iron, shocked the blacksmith again.
"These things can be held by ordinary people?" the boss asked in surprise.
Zhang Han smiled faintly and did not answer the boss's question, how could the soldiers under him be just ordinary people.
"I wonder if the boss can make these things?"
The blacksmith frowned and glanced at the drawings in his hand again and said, "It should be possible, but this kind of weapon has never been forged, and there is no standard, so I am afraid that it will not meet the conditions of officials." ”
Listening to the boss's words, Zhang Han's eyes flashed with a trace of essence, and he saw him go straight to the stove used by the blacksmith to make weapons, and take out a piece of fine iron that was burning red.
He looked back at the blacksmith and said, "Hammer!"
The blacksmith was stunned for a moment, but handed over a hammer that had been placed aside.
Taking the hammer, Zhang Han tried the feel, untied the armor of his upper body and hung it upside down on his body, and said flatly: "Look." ”
"Phew!"
"Phew!"
"Phew!"
The crisp sound of iron clashing sounded in the field, and in the stunned blacksmith, Zhang Han danced a heavy iron hammer like a windmill, hammer after hammer, his body was agile and orderly, without the slightest pause, and the action was so fast that everyone was dazzled.
Under Zhang Han's hammer, a piece of red-hot iron quickly stretched and lengthened, and the prototype of a Tang knife could be roughly seen clearly, and fireworks were splashed around.
An hour later, a finished Tang knife has been quietly placed on the shelves on the side, and it only needs to be carefully polished, and this Tang knife can become a killing weapon.
On the other side, Zhang Han did not stop there, and stepped on the blast bag next to the furnace a few times, burning the flames in the furnace more violently, and several pieces of refined iron raw materials were thrown into the furnace by him again.
"Shhh
Is this TM still human?
A Tang knife with such exquisite workmanship is about to start again without taking a break?
The blacksmith roared in his heart, but he didn't stop it, he also wanted to see how the official in front of him would build the next few weapons.
He even felt that watching the people in front of him forge weapons was an alternative enjoyment, and it was simply a blessing in their forging world.
The sound of the clanging bells continued until the evening, and when he left the blacksmith shop, Zhang Han spent thirty taels of gold to place an order for thirty sets, and agreed to come and collect them at the beginning of next month.
When he rushed back to the barracks, Zhang Han felt that his arm was a little numb, and he secretly sighed that it was still lower on the ground, if he entered the foundation building period, he would be able to control the spiritual power released for forging, and at that time, there would be a qualitative leap in both the forging speed and the quality.
No matter how dissatisfied Zhang Han was with his strength at this time, in the blacksmith shop, the blacksmith and his three apprentices were sitting at a long table in a daze.
On the long table were placed a few strange weapons with cold light and flickering, and the blacksmith slowly got up, stretched out his hand and trembled to pick up a spear on the table and looked at it carefully, and muttered to himself: "O god-man!
went straight back to his camp, and from a long distance, Zhang Han heard the sound of Zhang Lin and others training.
Standing in front of the camp gate and looking at it quietly, Zhang Han found that Zhao Feng and the others were becoming more and more proficient in the battle formation, and they could often randomly cross positions with the people around them in the melee, flexible like a fish, and it was only a little more than a week to have such progress Zhang Han also nodded with satisfaction.
In this week's time, Zhang Han visited almost the entire Panyang City, but all he saw were ordinary people, and no trace of monks was found.
Later, when I inquired, I found out that this monk had seen the dragon in this world, and most ordinary people had only heard of it, but had never seen it.
After learning the news, Zhang Han was still very shocked, he didn't expect that there were so few monks in this world.
However, it was precisely because of this that he planned to train Zhao Feng and the others as monks, and he didn't even dare to think about what kind of turmoil the appearance of an army of monks would bring to this continent.
