Chapter 6: Familiar Feeling (Seeking Collections, Recommending Investments)
Zhu Gaoxu silently walked into his room and walked to the left side of the bedroom.
There is a wooden shelf with a piece of armor hanging from it.
This is a pale gold straight-body fish scale armor.
The fish scale armor of the Ming Dynasty mainly consisted of 9,000 pieces of fish scale armor used by the royal honor guard, all of which were made of metal.
And Zhu Gaoxu's set is made of pangolin armor and metal together.
The scales on a pangolin are not all usable, they are usually similar in size, the edges and corners are smoothed before they are made, and small holes are drilled for threading, and then placed in the inner lining.
Usually the older the pangolin, the stronger the scales, and it has a certain protection against bows and arrows and firearms, even more useful than the steel pieces of this era.
Like Zhu Gaoxu's straight-body fish scale armor, it is made of nine adult pangolins, which is very precious.
"Lord Wang, do you want to wear armor?" Zhong Xian was a little surprised, he found that Zhu Gaoxu was quietly watching this set of armor.
When Zhu Gaoxu came from Beiping, he didn't wear any armor, but he carried it with a carriage.
Zhu Gaoxu didn't respond immediately, he slowly reached out and touched the fish scale armor.
Zhu Gaoxu in history, riding and shooting, extremely brave, can be described as the first fierce general of the Northern Army.
But now that he has only been here for a month, he is really a little worried that he can't afford this title.
It's just that when he touched this set of fish scale armor, some familiar images and feelings slowly surged up in his mind.
"Give this king, armor." Zhu Gaoxu said categorically.
Fish scale armor is still difficult to wear, from the back to the middle, up and down, left and right are separated, and need to be put in, similar to the doctor's big white hexagram in later generations, and more complicated.
Because it's heavy, at least someone has to help.
With Zhong Xian's help, Zhu Gaoxu finally put on the fish scale armor.
Strange to say, when he put on the armor and put on the helmet, he couldn't help but tremble all over his body, as if a magical power flowed through his body like an electric current.
The next moment, countless pictures surged up in his mind like a movie, and the familiar and unfamiliar feeling just now came to his heart again, and Zhu Gaoxu felt that his whole body was full of infinite power.
"The prince is really heroic." Zhong Xian was full of praise.
This set of armor is tailor-made for Zhu Gaoxu, he was originally tall and mighty, and now wearing this armor, he looks even more powerful and powerful.
"A weighs thirty pounds, and ordinary people can't walk when they wear it?" After Zhu Gaoxu put it on, he took a few steps back and forth, but there was no response.
It's very smooth and effortless.
The history books say that he can resist the top and lift the horse, Zhu Gaoxu didn't believe it before, but now he really believes it.
"Go get your weapons." Zhu Gaoxu turned his head to look around.
There is also a horse lance next to the bed, which is Zhu Gaoxu's weapon, and there is a pair of hard bows hanging on the wooden frame.
Zhong Xian took a hard bow and quiver first.
Zhu Gaoxu looked at it, there were about twenty arrows in the quiver, which was not much.
The hard bow he took in his hand, and after a little force, he could pull it full.
This is a three-stone strong bow, and there are not many people in history who can pull up a three-stone bow.
When Zhong Xian saw Zhu Gaoxu trying the bow, his face also showed admiration.
Zhu Gaoxu's bow, no one in the entire Yanwang Mansion could fill it that year, Zhu Gaochu was only sixteen years old at the time, after he got off the field, within fifty steps, the full bow broke two layers of iron armor, shocking the entire army of the palace.
"Lord Wang." Zhong Xian held Zhu Gaoxu's horse lance in both hands at this time, and walked over with difficulty.
He was not strong enough to pick up the lance, so he could only drag it to the ground and make a squeaking sound.
Zhu Gaoxu saw that this horse lance was about 1.7 meters taller, taller than Zhong Xian.
This thing resembles a spear, but the front head is longer and wider, taking up about a third of the horse's lance.
"Is it heavy?" Zhu Gaoxu took a step forward, grabbed the horse lance with one hand, and easily took it into his hand.
He slammed it a few times, it was a little heavy, and it was estimated that there were twenty pounds.
In this case, he was wearing thirty pounds of armor and carrying a horse lance of more than twenty pounds, and his weight was already more than two hundred pounds.
"Let's go, let's go first." Zhu Gaoxu took all the equipment, didn't want the rest of the things, and went out directly.
As he walked, he said, "You prepare some dry food, bring the horse, and follow me immediately." ”
"Yes, lord." Zhong Xian trotted out with Zhu Gaoxu.
He looked at Zhu Gaochu from behind, and felt that Zhu Gaochu was like a mountain, walking as calmly as a mountain, and his momentum was compelling.
Unexpectedly, the two of them prepared everything, and as soon as they left their yard to lead the horse, they saw Tan Hai waiting outside the courtyard.
Seeing that Zhu Gaoxu was wearing full armor and wearing sharp armor, Tan Hai was startled.
He was stunned for a moment, and immediately said: "Lord, the prince invites the prince to go with him to meet the Duke of Wei." ”
Yes, Zhu Gaoxu didn't plan to go, he was going to slip away first, but he didn't expect that the prince might guess that he was going to slip away first, and sent Tan Hai to block him.
"Go first, and the king will come later." Zhu Gaoxu said quietly.
"The prince's horses are all in the world, let's go together." Tan Hai said with a smile.
“。。” Zhu Gaoxu was speechless for a moment.
He was wearing more than 30 pounds of armor and holding more than 20 pounds of weapons.
He stubbornly went to the gate, but found that the officers and soldiers outside the gate had not left.
This Beijing camp is responsible for 'protecting' the children of the vassal kings in Beijing, and it is said that now Zhu Gaoxu can leave, and they should also be withdrawn.
Later, Zhu Gaoxu learned that they were also responsible for escorting the three brothers out of the capital.
"Second brother, why are you dressed like this?" Zhu Gaosui was also dumbfounded.
The prince was even more helpless.
"Get used to it." Zhu Gaoxu said calmly: "When you ride on a horse, you like armor." ”
Zhu Gaochi sighed: "Let's not talk about it yet, let's go together." ”
He said hello, everyone rode their horses, and Zhu Gaochi got into the carriage behind, which also contained some gifts from their mansion and was ready to be given to Wei Guogong.
Because he was leaving Beijing, the prince threw away the things that he didn't use at home, and threw away the rest of the valuable ones, and gave them directly to his uncle Xu Huizu.
At this time, their team was a total of six people, except for a team of soldiers and horses in the Beijing camp.
The three brothers of the prince, Zhong Xian, Zhu Gaoxu's follower, Tan Hai, the follower of the prince, and Xu Zhong, a follower eunuch by Zhu Gaosui's side.
All the way, Zhu Gaoxu was thinking, what should he do if his uncle was in the house and suddenly wanted to arrest him?
But if you think about it, it doesn't seem like there is such a bridge in history, or do I not need to be too panicked?
It's just that because of my arrival, history has had a butterfly effect, and it is possible that there will be a change.
Zhu Gaoxu thought about it and finally decided that Emperor Zhu Yunwen agreed to let them go, and if his uncle Xu Huizu insisted on arresting himself, he couldn't say that he could strike first, and it was okay to make a 'miss' and hurt people.
A trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he really hated his uncle Xu Huizu very much in his heart.
Obviously, everyone is a relative, why do they want to target us everywhere (including Zhu Di and Xu Huizu are also very disgusted. )
