Coming over from Dongfang with Jiang Feng, Luo Zhen was still amazed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

He had the impression that his friend didn't seem to have much talent in instrument making, and he was crushed by his friend in all aspects, but he still had a psychological advantage in magic and instrument making.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Feng actually had a whim, and put forward the idea of improving the stone throwing car, and suddenly made a qualitative leap, other ordinary craftsmen may not be aware of the huge impact of this improvement, but Luo Zhen was keenly aware of it.

Such a change can greatly improve the efficiency of the stone throwing car, although it may put forward higher requirements for the production process and material requirements of the stone throwing car, but as long as the process and material are solved, the power of the stone throwing car will be greatly improved, whether it is defending the city or attacking the city is unimaginable.

"Erlang, how did you come up with this whirlwind cannon?"

Luo Zhen lost weight several times, and since he came to Gushi, Luo Zhen has devoted himself to the construction of the material office.

This is also what Jiang Feng has been preparing for since he grasped the power of Gushi City.

The position of the solid beginning is extremely important, but it is limited to the times, and has been left cold for many years, and the construction of the city defense system can not be completely improved in a short time, and this kind of tinkering can hardly withstand the real test of blood and fire.

Similarly, after the Gu Shi Army experienced a split, its strength was also weakened a lot, especially the departure of some backbone veterans, which also made the Gu Shi Army's combat effectiveness drop a lot, although Jiang Feng, Zhang Yue, Gu Minghai and Huang Anjin also tried their best to strengthen training during this period, but the improvement of combat effectiveness was not qualitatively improved in a day or two.

The improvement of a unit's combat strength is multifaceted.

Gu Shi is only a state army, even if it is the most neat Gu Minghai's middle battalion, it can only be said to be neat, and it is quite worrying in terms of combat effectiveness, Zhang Yue's tooth battalion must be the most rich in combat experience, but this army has suffered a big defeat, and its morale has been greatly affected, although it is encouraged by the reason of revenge, but in general, it still takes a while to recover slowly.

Moreover, the two main forces are uneven in terms of weapons and armor and equipment, which is also an aspect that restricts the improvement of combat effectiveness.

The old tooth army was inevitably discarded in the process of fleeing, while the Gushi army was not taken seriously in the first place, and there were some deficiencies in weapons and armor.

Fortunately, before the fall of Gwangju, Luo Zhen, who had been reminded by Jiang Feng, began to consciously prepare, and some materials and utensils were quietly transferred outside the city.

After learning that the Gwangju army was ambushed by the Caizhou army, Luo Zhen did not slack off, and transferred this part of the materials to Gushi overnight, but did not transfer to Gushi City, but hid outside the city.

It wasn't until the Gushi Army completely broke up and Jiang Feng took control of the overall situation of Gushi that they sent this material and utensils into the city.

"I didn't think of it, do you think I have the ability to do this? When I went to the ant thief to inquire about the news, I met a big cannibal, a craftsman, who was dying of hunger, gave him two pieces of bread, helped him live for a few more days, and told me the principle of this stone cannon before he died,...... Jiang Feng said casually: "That thing looks okay, but I don't know how long it can last?"

"It's difficult! It's just that the workmanship is not exquisite, but the material requirements are too high, the anti-shock force of throwing boulders is too great, and the damage to parts is too great, I have tested, about a heavy cyclone cannon, about to throw 60 to 80 stone bullets repeatedly, basically about to fall apart. ”

Luo Zhen's attention was quickly shifted to this, and he was full of interest.

"But if we can find a better material and use other spells to solidify it, it is estimated that it can be extended to more than 300 bullets, but now we can't do it at all. ”

"Of course we don't expect this now, Gushi's family background is all up to you from Gwangju, and we can't get through this level without you getting this little bit of family money. Jiang Feng sighed heavily.

Although Jiang Feng is full of confidence in front of and behind others, only he knows that it is still unknown whether he can survive this battle if he really fights.

The number of ant thieves is too large, so big that it can completely outweigh quality by quantity, and the pile can collapse the solid beginning.

This gap between them cannot be bridged by improving one or two pieces of equipment and strengthening the city's defense facilities.

More than 20,000 ant thieves!

Now in the entire GS county, plus the refugees who hid in the city during this time, there are only 30,000 or 40,000 people, of which the old and weak women and children account for most of them, but the ant thieves are more than 20,000 strong people who have experienced the baptism of war, and there are really too many unpredictable variables in this battle.

Luo Zhen can also feel the huge pressure in his friend's heart, but he can't help much in the battle command layout and the battle, the only thing he can help is what he is best at.

Originally, he was still going to habitually shout that he was tired, but at this time, Luo Zhen didn't talk nonsense, pointed to the wooden yellow objects that the other party had piled up in the warehouse, and raised his hand proudly, "Look!"

"Oh, what is this?" Jiang Feng didn't react for a while, and approached with some surprise.

Half of the warehouse was piled up, and the bright yellow color was particularly soft in the sunlight through the window, and the fine and tight silk grass seemed to be woven with some kind of tendon, which looked more like some kind of cotton armor.

"Erlang, the grass and wood armor you want me to make, I've done my best. I bought a batch of thousand-heavy reed grass around Shaobi, found some skillful women to weave, and then added purple kapok into it, barely made three hundred pairs, and then soaked it with ox blood and sandalwood gum, the effect can only be said to be unsatisfactory, stronger than ordinary cowhide armor, and compared with Mingguang armor, it is still far worse, but it is not bad in terms of tenacity and density, and it has a good effect on resisting arrows, but in frontal combat, the defense still cannot be compared with iron leaf armor. ”

Making grass and wood armor is a last resort.

At present, the five battalions of the Gushi Army, not counting the cavalry battalion for the time being, Zhang Yue's tooth battalion and Gu Minghai's middle battalion are 1,000 soldiers, and there are less than 700 with a full set of leather armor, if you count Huang Anjin's front battalion, among 1,500 people, the lack of armor is at least 700 pairs or more.

This is not counting the left battalion led by Jiang Feng.

There were only 100 pairs of incomplete rags in the entire left battalion, which was also the most resentful of the soldiers of the left battalion during training.

But to make up for so much armor, firstly, a small county like Gushi has no ability to make such a large amount of armor, and secondly, even if he wants to buy it in other cities, Gushi can't get so much silver.

Now it is quite difficult to maintain the food of more than 2,000 soldiers, let alone others.

In the absence of other ways, Jiang Feng had to hit the grass and wood armor with his mind.
