Chapter 182: Sid Steel Armor

At the end of July, Lorist received a letter from Fat Man at Maple Grove Lodge stating that Baron Philim Charward of the Pegasus family had sent an emissary to buy 5,000 sets of iron armor from the Norton family. In addition, Baron Saheen, also known as Knight Henned, wrote a letter to Lorlist, asking him to sponsor him with 3,000 sets of iron armor and matching weapons......

Lorist could not return to Rock Castle because the old steward Kress was in his dying stage, and after six months, the old steward became more ill and bedridden, and Pat had been serving by his side for nearly two months.

Looking at the map, Lorist pondered for a while, and wrote a reply to Shi Fatzi. If the Pegasus family wants to buy iron armor, then sell it to him, real money and silver, young and old, pay money with one hand and deliver it with the other, and if the money is not enough, you can barter with grain and grass materials. As for Knight Henned, Lorist wrote a reply inviting him to come and talk about it.

Knight Hennend arrived at Maple Grove Lodge just as he was confronted with the death of the old steward, who was conscious on his deathbed, and he held Lorist's hand and expressed his wish that he would be lucky enough to enter the forbidden land of the family, and even after his death, he would be able to accompany the ancestors of the Norton family.

Loris nodded, and shook his head again, but the old manager Kress didn't understand what this meant, and couldn't catch it in one breath......

Pat cried very sadly, his parents died early, his grandfather raised him since he was a child, and now the death of his only loved one makes him grief-stricken. He didn't understand why Lorist refused his grandfather's dying request, after all, Old Chief Kress had dedicated his life to the Norton family and stabilized the situation at the family's most critical moment. Delay until the return of Lorist to inherit the realm and title. Great contribution to the family. Entering the forbidden land of the family is beyond reproach.

Lorist said that he was going to build a family cemetery in Bailugang, which was a holy place of sleep given by the goddess of the silver moon to the ancestors of the family, but the ancestors of the family did not understand it. This time, he wanted to build a large number of buildings, and move out the bodies of the ancestors and ancestors in the family's forbidden land to Bailugang and bury them, so that they could sleep forever. And the old manager of Kress will also enter the White Deer Hill family cemetery as a member of the Norton family.

Pat turned his grief into joy and volunteered to take on the job of overseer of the cemetery. Lorlist, on the other hand, was busy with the design of the project. He planned to cremate all the more than 300 corpses in the family's forbidden cave and then move them to Bailugang, and hired stone carvers to carve stone statues for the family's famous ancestors.

Knight Hennell spent twelve days at Maple Grove Lodge, attending the cremation and burial of Chief Kress, and all that remained was to erect a statue of Old Master Kress, which was naturally in charge of Pat, but it would take some time. However, Lorist managed to find the time to have an open conversation with Knight Henned.

The pressure on Knight Henneid was great, and he was faced with more than 56,000 troops of the First Legion of the newly established Iberian Kingdom of the Second Prince, and his territory was adjacent to each other, so he had to shrink his forces to protect himself. He had under him more than 12,000 troops of the former Northland Legion. But in the face of the second prince's aggressive measures, he could only barely maintain it. Try not to clash with the second prince's men.

At the Northland Nobles' Fellowship held in May this year, the second prince gave an enthusiastic speech, saying that in order to revive the former Krissian Empire, it was necessary to integrate the Iberian Kingdom, let all the territorial nobles work together, and concentrate their forces in order to hope to unify the empire and embark on the road to revival. But at present, there are still many nobles of the kingdom who disobey the second prince and refuse to obey his orders.

The second prince is willing to give these nobles a chance to mend their ways, as long as they can show their loyalty to the second prince and contribute to the revival of the empire, the second prince will not hold them accountable for their past mistakes. Otherwise, the second prince will lead the first legion of the kingdom next year to make these territorial nobles realize that the dignity of the kingdom cannot be violated and the king's orders cannot be violated......

Therefore, Knight Hennend decided to strengthen his armaments and expand his forces to protect himself, but it was difficult to raise weapons and equipment, and the barony left to him by his father was very barren, and he could only rely on Cherry Blossom Ridge Manor and Evenson Town to maintain the food and clothing of his 12,000 men. If it weren't for the fact that he pretended to be Lorlist's subordinate and made a lot of money in the Grand Duke's territory the year before last, he would have gone bankrupt long ago. This time, he decided to expand to 15,000 people, so he hit the idea on Lorlist, hoping that relying on his old friendship could get Lorist to sponsor him with a batch of weapons and equipment.

Lorist is a person who misses the old love, and when he saw that Knight Henned's words were pitiful, he agreed to his request, sponsored him with 3,000 sets of iron armor and supporting weapons and equipment, and helped him think of a way to make money, and asked him to go to Shi Fatzi and wholesale a million catties of snow salt to resell in the past. If the deal goes well, Knight Henneid can earn about 10,000 gold fords from this million-pound snow salt business, and he will have half a year's military expenses.

After sending away the Henneid knights, Lorist began to organize the survey of Cow Hill and the design of the fortress castle. Woniu Gang is a granite hill, only more than 30 miles away from the military fortress at the junction of the two mountains, it resembles a demon cow lying on the wasteland and gets its name, and it is currently the archery battalion of Chosk stationed on Woniu Gang.

After the design of the fortress was finalized, it was already September, and the Bailugang family cemetery was nearing completion, and Lorist presided over the ceremony of cremating the remains of the family's ancestors and relocating them to Bailugang.

Lorlist's family cemetery is more of a casual place, digging out the miscellaneous trees and shrubs from White Deer Hills, and at the top is the first ancestor of the Norton family, a bluestone statue of a knight ready to shoot with a bow, and the base is inscribed with his deeds and the inscription that founded the Norton family.

In addition to the stone statues, there are bluestone tombstones, but there are dozens of statues that have not yet been completed, and they will be erected in predetermined positions in the future. Beyond that is the green meadows, the family cemetery is surrounded by a ring of dwarf, spired maple fences. Bailugang is surrounded by a sparse maple forest.

When night comes, the white deer figures who have disappeared for many days appear again on Bailugang, they play on the grass between the statues and tombstones, and in the silver-white moonlight, the family cemetery adds a touch of mystery and holy comfort.

All those who saw this scene were convinced of Lorlist's words that White Deer Gang was a resting place given by the Silver Moon Goddess to the ancestors of the Norton family, and from then on they called the White Deer Gang Family Cemetery the White Deer Sacred Garden.

Finished the family cemetery. Lorist received good news. Master Sid has finally created a set of armor that is more protective than the standard equipment of the White Lion Legion. The messenger hurried to the Maple Grove Villa to announce the good news.

Lorist led the men to the Darkiron Smelting Ground in the Blade Mountains.

Master Sid smiled like an old chrysanthemum, and the world-famous armor of the White Lion Legion, which had been carefully crafted by dozens of armor masters of the former Krisson Empire, was now surpassed by him, and he had no regrets in this life.

It wasn't until Lorist saw Master Sid take out the built armor that he understood, God, this is bullying iron armor with steel armor!

The standard equipment of the White Lion Legion is actually fine iron armor, purple and brown, and the armor masters of the former empire added several materials that can guide the fighting spirit to the fine iron, and after countless experiments, they got the best ratio of material formulas. Then the armor is poured out of the mold, and then polished to complete, its protection is much higher than the ordinary iron armor, like the battle of Rock Castle, Duke Lukins's longbowmen launched a hanging shot, as a result, the Norton soldiers wearing the standard equipment of the White Lion Legion were unharmed, so that the Northland noble coalition collapsed on the spot.

Master Sid took out a silver-white steel armor, using a hydraulic forging machine, Master Sid smelted the black iron ingot into steel, and then used a self-made hydraulic forging press to forge the steel into armor.

Lorist picked up the steel armor and looked at it. It was found that it was still a three-layer structure. The outermost is steel armor, and the inside is lined with black magic cowhide. Inside the magic cowhide is a layer of fine steel wire soft armor.

"My lord, the formula of this steel armor was determined after I tried it for a long time, it is twice as strong as the standard iron armor defense of the White Lion Legion, and the channeling fighting spirit is faster and more comprehensive. We have experimented that the white lion iron armor will break through the armor at a distance of eighty meters under the direct fire of the longbow, while our steel armor will not be broken until sixty meters, and if the wearer uses the fighting spirit to defend again, it will not pose a threat until the direct shot of the longbow at a distance of thirty or forty meters.

The full set of white lion iron armor equipment weighs thirty-eight pounds, and the overall weight of our steel armor is only twenty-seven pounds, which is eleven pounds less, which is a great burden on the soldiers, and our steel armor has a more comprehensive defense and more thoughtful protection of the body. After wearing it, it is more flexible and lighter than the white lion iron armor...... "Master Sid gushed about the advantages of the steel armor he made, and from his description, the steel armor he made has overwhelmed the white lion iron armor in all aspects, and he is proud of it.

"Find someone to put on and see ......," Lorist said.

El was overjoyed when he saw the hunt, and volunteered to put on this set of steel armor.

Then Lorist fainted, it was too familiar, wasn't this the armor of the Imperial soldiers in Star Wars, except for the helmet and the battle skirt hanging from the waist instead of briefs, nothing else really resembled. At this moment, Lorist wanted to ask if Master Sid had also crossed over.

The helmet designed by Master Sid is a spire with a neck guard, and there is a bear-faced mask that can be lowered to protect the face, which looks extremely hideous. El wore a full suit of armor, drew his sword and performed various fighting moves, and after a fight, he beckoned two guards to compete with him for a long time before he came out of breath.

"Locke, this set of steel armor is indeed much lighter and more flexible than the standard equipment we wear in the White Lion Legion, and it fits very well, without the feeling of stagnation in the White Lion Iron Armor. I asked to give our guard battalion a change of clothes first......" El asked excitedly.

Lorist looked at Master Sid: "Master Sid, how many sets of armor can be produced in a month?"

"My lord, this set of steel armor has a total of twenty-one parts, although it is seven more parts than the white lion iron armor, but because of these hydraulic machinery, it is not difficult to make. We're just forging the various armor parts here, and then shipping them to the industrial castle for retouching and assembly. At present, there is a shortage of manpower, and I estimate that dozens of sets will be produced in a day. If I were to add 1,000 manpower, I would build a few more refining furnaces to increase the output of steel, and I would like to be able to produce about 200 sets a day. Master Sid pondered and replied.

"Okay, master, I will allocate a thousand men for you, and in addition, this steel armor will be named after the master in the future, and it will be called Sid steel armor, which will be the standard equipment that our Norton family is armed. But I asked for the spire of the helmet to be rounded and our family's Angry Bear badge added to the breastplate, can I do that?" Lorist asked.

Hearing that Lorist named the steel armor Sid steel armor, Master Sid was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut, this is a good thing that will go down in history and become famous all over the world: "My lord." Rest assured. In accordance with your wishes, I will make improvements to Sid's steel armor. So that the family armed forces can wear our standard equipment as soon as possible, and there is no need to wear the white lion armor that is backward and cumbersome. ”

El muttered beside him, "Why do I feel that Master Sid has a deep grudge against the White Lion Iron Armor?"

Lorist laughed, he had heard the former bandit Ovikis talk about it before, it is said that Master Sid was an apprentice in the Imperial Ordnance Institute when he was young, and once repaired a batch of broken White Lion Iron Armor, Master Sid thought that if the White Lion Iron Armor was forged again, it would definitely improve the defense, so he secretly conducted an experiment, and as a result, he destroyed three sets of White Lion Iron Armor. He was expelled from the armory after being heavily reprimanded.

After being kicked out of the armory, Master Sid worked very hard, and went around to learn the art as an apprentice. It wasn't until twenty years later that he became a master of armor, and later during the Imperial Civil War, he and his family were exiled to the winding mountain road, where they were coerced by bandits to make iron armor for them.

El is right, Master Sid does have a deep grudge against the White Lion Iron Armor. Therefore, after the discovery of the iron ore in the Blade Mountains, he has been studying without sleep or food, and now he has finally fulfilled his long-cherished wish and made a Sid steel armor that is better than the white lion iron armor.

"Reddy, take note of my orders. Lorist commanded, "In order to reward Master Sid for the Sid Steel Armor, the family will reward Master Sid with 1,000 gold fords, and his deputy with 100 gold merits." The list was determined by Master Sid, and the rest of the people waited for ten gold fords for one person. ”

"Yes. My lord. ”

"Master Sid, don't forget, the standard equipment of the White Lion Legion is not only iron armor, but also matching shields and weapons, and you have to continue to work hard. ”

"My lord, I will not forget, I will equip Sid Steel Armor with the same good shields and weapons as soon as possible, please rest assured. Master Sid said.

Lorist sent an order to Sedcamp to select about 1,000 of the more than 20,000 captives who had built roads between the towns of Fengle Plain and send them to Master Sid in the Darkiron Smelting Yard before returning to the Rock Castle with the guards.

......

Before she could take a breath when she came back, Miss Baisha grabbed the knight of Lenmed and came to complain.

The matter is very simple, the Lenmerd Knights went to the women's camp as a pharmacist to teach the female soldiers the basics of battlefield rescue and pharmacy, and from the report in May to the end of October, the Lenmerd Knights enlarged the bellies of seven female soldiers in five months......

Lotlister closed his jaw, which had been knocked out.

Bull, Lorist looked at Renmerd with great admiration, how could he not see the essence of this guy so lustful in the academy before?

Miss Baisha was very angry, three of the seven pot-bellied women were squad leaders, two were her deputies, and two female soldiers with very outstanding qualifications who were expected to be promoted to the top positions after a while, but now they were all swept away by the knights of Renmerd.

However, it is said that the seven female soldiers were all willing, and the Lenmerd knight did not force anyone, so although Miss Baisha was so angry that she gritted her teeth and wanted to castrate the Lenmerd knight with a knife, but the seven pot-bellied women protected it, and Miss Baisha had no choice but to pull the Lenmerd knight to Lorist for comment.

A search through the rules and regulations of the family armed forces did not find a way to deal with this situation.

Lorist asked, "What about the seven female soldiers with big bellies?"

Miss Baisha replied angrily: "There is a lot of quarrel in the lounge on the lower floor, and everyone says that others are shameless to seduce their lover, this Lenmed knight ......"

"Go and bring them up and ask them what they want to do. ”

Well, Lorist is asking for herself. Seven pot-bellied women turned the lord's office into a vegetable market, and everyone said that they would give birth to a child for the knight of Lenmed and be his wife. Poor Knight Remed would be like a quail, holding his head silently.

"Alright!" Lorist slapped the table and stopped the quarrel: "Well, don't quarrel, I will allow you all to marry the knight of Renmed, and let him marry the seven of you." Whoever argues again will be automatically withdrawn. ”

The knight of Lenmud looked at the seven pot-bellied women who had closed their mouths tightly and cried.

Lorist said with deep sympathy and earnestness: "Knight Remmerd, as a man, you have to dare to act, and since you do it, you have to be responsible. Well, then, I grant you a long vacation to serve your seven wives at home and give birth to children......"

This is the only way to fix it. After the knight of Lenmed had gone with the seven pot-bellied women, Lorist thought exhaustedly leaning back in his chair.

Miss Baisha was very dissatisfied with Lorist's disposition, not only did she lose seven stalwarts in her women's battalion, but she was also too cheap to be a knight of Lenmerd, not to mention the punishment, and let him get seven wives.

"Cheap?" Lorist sneered: "Giving him seven wives is the biggest punishment, the happy days of restlessness are waiting for him, he deserves it, this is the end of the lower half of his body......"

...... (To be continued.) )
