Chapter VI During the Great Pilgrimage

readx;? Words written before the editor:

The armor of the Qin and Han dynasties was generally dominated by armor. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info materials are both leather and metal. Even in the late Han Dynasty, metal armor was only equipped by elite soldiers and officers.

Well...... The situation in film and television dramas can be said to be exceptional. Whether it is "The Son of Heaven" or "Wei Zifu", which has just ended, the kind of scene dominated by leather armor is actually unreasonable. The southern army and the northern army of Chang'an in the Han Dynasty were the most elite troops, and the wolf rummaged through the information, which said that the iron-armor ratio of these two armies was very high.

Hawkers, it is impossible for actors in film and television dramas to wear more than fifteen kilograms of iron armor to shoot, which can be directly ignored.

In fact, in the Western Han Dynasty, Mingguang armor was only in the stage of development. Well, the armor style on the abdomen is still dominated by armor. A small number of armor pieces are in the form of fish scale armor.

Fish scale armor and armor are the two main types of armor in ancient China. For example, in many novels or film and television dramas, there are hundreds or even all of them equipped with composite plate armor such as Mingguang armor, which is very rare in history books. In many cases, even the Royal Praetorian Guard has this standard.

Although the fish scale armor and the armor seem to be cumbersome to use, its follow-up maintenance cost is very low, such as the Buren armor of the Song Dynasty, which is a composite fish scale armor. As long as a set of armor is not too badly damaged, it often only needs to replace the damaged armor piece before it can be used.

Zajia also falls into this case.

However, the Mingguang armor is different, once the deck position is damaged, then it is easy to have the entire set of armor directly scrapped.

People in ancient times were not stupid, and many of those in power were also shrewd. Cost control is not only something that can be solved when an equipment is introduced, but also one of the problems that must be considered for follow-up maintenance.

Well...... Even those who had money in the Song Dynasty were all foot armor with the top equipment, and the ranged troops were either leather armor or paper armor, and there was nothing equipped with the kind of ring chain mail that was cumbersome to maintain.

Heavy armor in Chinese history did not prevail on a large scale in Western Europe. Because such armor, in many ways, does not correspond to the situation on the battlefield in China.

At the same time, many of the Central Plains dynasties in the past dynasties did not form heavy cavalry troops on a large scale because of the lack of horses, not to mention the kind of cavalry (cavalry, also known as cavalry, the difference between this thing and heavy cavalry is that even horses are covered with heavy armor). As for the three military dynasties of the Central Plains, the Qin, Han and Tang dynasties, they also did not establish their military status with heavy cavalry.

Because the foreign enemies at that time were mainly nomads, most of these enemies could be said to be light cavalry that lacked even armor and armor, and even if they formed heavy cavalry, it was useless. A very simple sentence: Can you run well?

Heavy cavalry can do one-sided slaughter against infantry, in the right terrain and with the right tactics, but it is completely powerless against light cavalry. Unless the opposing officer is stupid enough to attack with light cavalry and heavy cavalry.

Here's the text:

............................................................ Body line..........................................

Zhang Jiashi didn't wear this kind of armor, which was similar to the armor, but with a few more gadgets.

And Ying Yuexi and Ying Yuelian, who entered the inner room hand in hand, saw Zhang Jiashi, who was wearing a light black fine linen robe, and was picking up the lacquered white iron plate that should be the heart protection version, wrapped in the middle by a circle of linen cloth and was at a loss.

As a result, Ying Yuelian let go of his hand, walked to Zhang Jiashi's side, and said: "You are really stupid, if you have two more chest guards and two gauntlets, you won't wear them." Really, stay quietly for this princess. ”

Ying Yuelian fiddled with Zhang Jiashi's new armor on the side, and wrapped the two chest guards with the silk threads designed on the armor. She turned around and rolled her eyes at Zhang Jiashi, and then said to Ying Yuexi, "Sister Xi, can you help me?"

"This ...... All right. Ying Yuexi blushed slightly, then walked to the table and picked up the large-looking crown hat and walked to Zhang Jiashi's side.

"Huh?" Zhang Jiashi seemed to remember something wrong, he opened his eyes, and then said, "Yuelian, what did you call this just now?"

"Sister Xi. Ying Yuelian didn't expect anything wrong with this, she fiddled with her armor directly with her back to Zhang Jiashi, and replied directly to Zhang Jiashi.

"Is this your sister?" Zhang Jiashi was dumbfounded, and at this time, Ying Yuexi held the crown in one hand, and then slowly put it on Zhang Jiashi's head.

"Yes, she is my fifth sister. Ying Yuelian answered Zhang Jiashi very directly, she seemed to think of something, turned to look at Zhang Jiashi, and then said: "Hmph! surnamed Zhang, don't bully Sister Xi, otherwise, I won't let you go!"

Before Zhang Jiashi could reply, a person walked in from the opposite side of the screen, wearing a black imperial robe and the twelve imperial crowns on his head to announce his identity.

"All stand down!" Ying Zheng said this sentence without looking back, and there was a chorus of voices behind Ying Zheng: "Oh." ”

Ying Zheng saw the scene that seemed to be different from his imagination, he was puzzled for a moment, and then said indifferently: "I am waiting for you outside." ”

Ying Zheng turned around and left, leaving behind three people who looked at each other, only able to speed up the work at hand.

......

After a while, Zhang Jiashi followed Ying Yuexi and Ying Yuelian, and walked outside, and he saw the First Emperor Ying Zheng sitting cross-legged behind a low table, as if thinking about something.

"Wechen greets Your Majesty. "The son asks his father for peace. ”

Zhang Jiashi, Ying Yuexi and Ying Yuelian all greeted Ying Zheng.

During the Qin Dynasty, soldiers wore armor and could not kneel.

And Yingzheng didn't care about this set of false etiquette, but opened his eyes and said: "Xi'er, Lian'er, you go back first and wait for the state banquet to start." ”

"Yes, Father. ”

Ying Yuexi and Ying Yuelian, after blessing Ying Zheng, turned around and left the palace.

The door of the palace was closed again by the two waiters waiting outside the door, and Ying Zheng looked at Zhang Jiashi at this time, and said very calmly: "Do you understand my arrangement?"

"Wechen was foolish and couldn't guess what His Majesty's Sacred Heart meant. Zhang Jiashi thought about it and shook his head.

"In that case, I've heard that you've found a few staff members who seem to be capable, and if you go and discuss this matter with them, you'll naturally understand. Ying Zheng said disapprehantly.

"Wechen respectfully obeys His Majesty's teachings. Zhang Jiashi bowed his hand to Ying Zheng.

"Next!" Ying Zheng threw a sword to Zhang Jiashi, and Zhang Jiashi took it casually and found that this sword was the Lulu sword that he had stored at the palace gate.

He didn't know what this meant, but he heard Ying Zheng say a sentence: "Bastard boy, you should call yourself Shen instead of Weichen now, and besides, in the future, only I or the next emperor can let you untie the sword." ”

"Yes, Wechen...... Ministers should act according to His Majesty's grace. Zhang Jiashi held the middle and upper part of the scabbard of the Lulu Sword with both hands, and then bowed to Yingzheng.

Ying Zheng didn't speak, but motioned to Zhang Jiashi with his eyes to put on the Lulu sword, and said a sentence: "Do you understand...... Why did I arrange this scene?"

"This ......," Zhang Jiashi shook his head very dryly.

"I heard that you also have some experience in medicine and pharmacy, and I am thinking that if Xi'er is taken care of by you, she can live a better life. Ying Zheng looked at Zhang Jiashi, who was wearing a full set of armor and a ceremonial crown, and nodded slowly: "The last time I asked you, what you said can be said to make me very satisfied." It's also the first time I've seen Xi'er so shy. But now, as a father, I ask you a ......"

"What will happen if I marry Xi'er and Lian'er to you at the same time?"

Ying Zheng looked at Zhang Jiashi and tapped his fingers lightly on the table.

"The minister cannot promise His Majesty. But the minister can guarantee that the people he loves can be happy. After thinking for a while, Zhang Jiashi said this sentence.

Ying Zheng didn't speak, but looked at Zhang Jiashi like this.

"Okay! I'll hear you say that. If Xi'er and Lian'er suffer any grievances, I will definitely be with you!" After Ying Zheng finished saying this, before Zhang Jiashi came back to his senses, he heard Ying Zheng say slowly: "I will go to Yongdu in a few days, and I plan to let you go too." You're good to go. ”

Although Zhang Jiashi didn't understand what Ying Zheng meant, he intuitively felt that such a thing had something to do with Ying Yuelian and the young woman who should be called Ying Yuexi.

But he didn't ask in detail, because Yingzheng had already driven people out, and it was no good for him to stay here, since this was the case, he might as well leave.

"The minister retired. ”

Ying Zheng didn't speak, but slowly closed his eyes, thinking about something.

When Zhang Jiashi was about to walk to the palace gate, he heard a sentence: "As a minister, there are some things that can be said, done, and listened to." But the reverse is also true. You must know that I can give you all this, and I can take it back. Hello for yourself. ”

After Zhang Jiashi heard this, he could say that he muttered a lot in his heart. But he didn't know that Ying Zheng's words were warning him not to do things with some people who made Ying Zheng feel that they exceeded his bottom line.

The door of the temple closed, and Ying Zheng opened his eyes and sighed softly.

...................................................... Dividing Line................................................

Zhang Jiashi planned to go back to the tavern now, but he didn't know that he was also eligible to participate in the state banquet after the Great Dynasty Meeting.

This time the state banquet was held in the square in front of the main hall of Xianyang Palace. Many civil ministers and military generals, clans, and the concubines and children of Yingzheng have been seated one after another.

Zhang Jiashi, under the guidance of an attendant, walked to a position that made him feel a little stunned.

It is not the seat on the side of the Wenchen, nor is it the seat of the military generals, but the seat of the close clan.

He didn't know what Ying Zheng was calculating, but the number of people sitting here should be the smallest, including Zhang Jiashi, there were only six people.

And Zhang Jiashi glanced at the five people who were at least a year or two older than him, and they were looking at him, he nodded, then stood up and said, "Who are you?"

Several people also slowly walked to Zhang Jiashi's side, and the middle-aged man who was about thirty-one or twelve years old clasped his fists and said, "I am equivalent to the emperor's son-in-law, and I should have a friendly exchange." Zhang Duwei is deeply valued by His Majesty, and we are really hot-eyed. By the way, I forgot to introduce, I'm the county guard of Sanchuan County. ”

Li You, as Ying Yuexiao's husband, is the leader of his circle in a sense, and he introduced the remaining four people to Zhang Jiashi: "This is the second princess Ying Yuexiao, the Lintao guard Li Xiao, he is the cousin of Li Junshou of Shu County." ”

"Disrespectful, disrespectful. "Over-reputation. ”

The remaining three people are the husband of the third princess Ying Yueshuo, the right Beiping County Shou Wei Chong, and the nephew of Wei Yizi.

(Wei Yi, this is not the correct name, Wei Yi's title is the same as Nei Shi Teng in the history books, this cannot be regarded as a name.) There is a possibility, that is, Wei Yu's surname is Wei, and the history books may sometimes omit the national surname of the country in which he is located. For example, Nei Shi Teng, a native of Qin, is likely to be Yingzheng's clan brother, so he won the surname Zhao and omitted it directly. Wei Yu represents the State of Qin, which can only be a title and cannot be understood as a name. )

The husband of the fourth princess Ying Yueqin, Sima of the Northern Army of Great Qin, Zheng Yao, and the husband of the sixth princess Ying Yueqin, the eldest son of the Xianyang merchant Guo Xiao.

Every time Li You introduced someone, Zhang Jiashi greeted each other to show that they had known each other.

After getting to know a few people this time, Li You suddenly remembered something, and he asked Zhang Jiashi in a low voice: "Duwei Zhang, who is the princess that Your Majesty intends to marry?"

The other four people also nodded and asked, "Yes, I'm also curious." ”

In fact, the five of them knew on their knees that only three of them could be married to Zhang Jiashi by His Majesty, the fifth princess Ying Yuexi, the seventh princess Ying Yuelian, and the eighth princess Ying Yueyong. And the most likely is the rumored seventh princess who has a good relationship with Zhang Jiashi, Ying Yuelian.

They asked, mostly out of curiosity.

But what they got was a result that surprised them.

"Your Majesty said that he wants to marry Princess Xi and Princess Lian......"

Well, after hearing this, the five people were like wax figures, and they stood for a while before coming back to their senses, and after looking at each other, they showed a wry smile.

In a sense, they are also entrusted by others, hoping to strike out some of Zhang Jiashi's tendencies. However, the fifth princess Ying Yuexi is good friends with the eldest son Fusu, and Ying Yuexi is Hu Hai's own sister. It can be said that in this case, His Majesty will definitely play fifty boards each, and that side is not biased.

They don't actually want to get involved in such a thing, but there is no way they can avoid it.

As the age of each prince increases, and at the same time, the position of the crown prince of Great Qin has been hanging in the world, and many people have a trace of thought. Even Childe Fusu is no exception. In fact, few of the sons and princesses of Daqin are fuel-efficient lamps.

Those of them, as the emperor's sons-in-law, are also difficult to stay out of the matter.

It's just that the answer Zhang Jiashi said made them helpless, and they also immediately thought of what Yingzheng's arrangement was all about.

They really envy Zhang Jiashi this time.

Except for Li You, the other four returned to their positions after whispering a few words to Zhang Jiashi.

Li You bowed his hand to Zhang Jiashi, looking at Zhang Jiashi, who was much younger than him, Li You said: "Zhang Duwei, as a person who is somewhat related, I will give you a little advice, if you can not touch some things, don't touch them." I'm also going to take my leave. If you have the opportunity, you can have a deep talk with Zhang Duwei. ”

Zhang Jiashi bowed his hand to Li Youyi, and after seeing Li You slowly turn back to his position, he also sat down in his seat.

......

After a short while, an attendant stood on the steps of Xianyang Palace and said loudly: "Your Majesty has arrived!"

This time, there was no kneeling ceremony like the Xianyang Palace Grand Meeting, and Zhang Jiashi also hurriedly stood up after seeing that many people who were sitting stood up.

"Greetings to Your Majesty!"

Ying Zheng didn't seem to change his clothes, but still dressed up in the same costume as the Great Dynasty Meeting, and slowly walked out of the Xianyang Palace.

Of course, this time it was not only Ying Zheng alone, there were also a large number of concubines and concubines behind him, and then it was Ying Zheng's children who came out.

Seats can be seen almost everywhere in the entire Xianyang Palace Square. But as long as you look at it clearly, you will find that it is not chaotic at all, but very organized.

There is only one person sitting in front of the main hall of Xianyang Palace, and this person is Yingzheng.

Of course, theoretically, there is also a queen in this position to sit with. But Yingzheng does not have a queen, which can be directly ignored.

On a long staircase below, there are no seats. This seat was originally the seat of the Queen Mother and the Crown Prince, of course, Zhao Ji has been dead for many years, which can also be ignored.

The next step is the harem group area of Ying Zheng...... Well, Zhang Jiashi found that many people are quite old, especially the biological mothers of several older sons, who are over forty years old.

Zhang Jiashi didn't care much about this, but put his eyes on the position of the Yingzheng children's group located in the staircase area and one floor below.

Zhang Jiashi calculated for a moment, and then muttered: "This is too much." ”

Childe is on top, and the family is sitting together. Of course, these people sitting next to the princes should only be wives and children.

The princess is below, and there is no one to accompany her, this is the seat layout of the Yingzheng children's group. Zhang Jiashi did not know why for this arrangement.

Well, if the princess had someone to accompany her, the few wouldn't have been all the wouldn't have sat here one by one.

Below is a list of ministers arranged by rank, official position, and status. The three princes and nine kings at the front are accompanied by their wives, and the rest is okay, and it's not bad if you don't share a table with others.

......

After Ying Zheng waited for everyone to calm down, he glanced at the ministers sitting in the square of Xianyang Palace, and said loudly in a loud tone: "Everyone, Great Qin has ushered in a new year, and in the new year, Great Qin will work with you to assist me to continue to govern." I wish Daqin a smooth wind and rain in the new year, and peace and security for the country and the people!"

After Ying Zheng said this, he picked up a glass of jade wine that had been filled with wine and slowly stood up.

And Zhang Jiashi also hurriedly picked up the wine after seeing that almost all of them picked up the wine jue and stood up.

At this time, almost everyone said in unison: "I wish Your Majesty a long life, and the Great Qin world for thousands of generations!"

"Okay! I drink first as a respect!" Ying Zheng brought the wine jue to his mouth, and after slowly drinking a wine jue, he raised his wine glass: "The state banquet begins!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Everyone raised the bartender and drank it down.

At this time, from both sides of the main hall of Xianyang Palace or the bottom two sides of the palace pedestal, a group of palace maids and servants came out. They delivered food from top to bottom, from north to south, at one time at a time.

It's not something that can be solved in a while, because there are too many people.

At this time, Zhang Jiashi saw the harem group sitting on the steps, lined up according to their identity and grade, holding the wine lord, slowly ascending the middle steps, and then slowly said these things in front of Yingzheng.

Zhang Jiashi didn't hear it, because the scene was a bit noisy.

But he saw that Ying Zheng waved his hand after drinking a glass of wine, and asked the chamberlain to send something to these concubines.

"Red envelopes?" Zhang Jiashi looked at the black cloth bags suspiciously, shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

After the concubine, it is naturally Yingzheng's children's group.

Some people who should be Ying Zheng's grandchildren, accompanied by Ying Zheng's daughter-in-law and daughter, congratulated Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng waved his hand again and rewarded something for his descendants.

At this time, Zhang Jiashi felt that his shoulder was tapped a few times, and he saw Zheng Xiao, who looked a little weak, holding a wine lord, and said to him: "It's time for us to toast Your Majesty." ”

"Thank you Brother Zheng for reminding me. Zhang Jiashi hurriedly waved to Zheng Xiao, picked up a wine lord filled with an inner waiter, and slowly followed Li You and a few others, and climbed the steps.

"Captain Zhang, don't go too fast later, because the princesses won't be coming right away. Zheng Xiao whispered to Zhang Jiashi, who was walking side by side with him.

Zhang Jiashi nodded, and then continued to follow the few brothers-in-law in front of him, climbing the steps step by step.

After a while, as Zheng Xiao said, several princesses with their children, or alone stood on the left hand side of their husbands.

As for Zhang Jiashi...... He suddenly discovered the highest essence of what it means to hug left and right.

What is more pleasant than on this occasion, Ying Yuexi is standing in his right hand position, and Ying Yuelian is standing in his left hand position, toasting his father-in-law step by step?

Of course, it's not all good things, because Ying Yuelian muttered in a low voice: "Hmph! If you're not good to our sisters, be careful that I strangle you!"

"Poof. Ying Yuexi hurriedly covered her mouth with her sleeve.

And Zhang Jiashi sighed helplessly.

......

The three of them didn't expect Ying Zheng to look at the three people in the team at this time, showing a hint of an imperceptible smile.
