Chapter 365: Capturing the Two Elders Alive

The defensive power of rattan armor is obvious to all on the battlefield, not only is it resistant to cutting, but it is very light in weight, and compared with iron armor, there are too many benefits.

But there is one most fatal flaw, fear of fire.

Su Qi'an took this problem into account when he was manufacturing, just because he was weak at the beginning, and there were no skilled craftsmen around him, and if he wanted to improve, he couldn't do it at all.

Based in Tucheng County, after the establishment of the R&D department, the improvement of rattan armor has always been the top priority.

It's just that it is not easy to make fireproof rattan armor, even if it is a large number of skilled craftsmen in the R&D department, it takes several months, and there is no qualified finished product.

Su Qi'an did not give up, and has been increasing financial support, but fortunately, he collected the money and silver of the county guard and the three priests, so that there was enough money to invest.

At the same time, he absorbed the craftsmen who were exiled to Jiaozhou, including the crazy head of the thunder craftsman.

Don't underestimate the head of the thunder craftsman, in addition to building various construction houses, he is quite proficient in the manufacturing and research and development of rattan armor

The metamorphosis defense of rattan armor, the Kyoto royal family naturally heard about it, and once ordered the officials of the Ministry of Industry to organize a group of skilled craftsmen to participate in research and development.

And the head of the thunder craftsman is one of the participants, with the support of the royal family, it stands to reason that even if the improvement of the rattan armor fails many times, as long as it persists, it will definitely be successfully developed.

It's a pity that the six departments of Kyoto have long been inserted by the two princes to enter it.

It is hardly a secret in Kyoto that the two sides are fighting openly and secretly, and participating in the project of improving the Fujijia has invested money every year, and for several years, it has not been able to see results.

Gradually, the project was impeached by the government of the central government, accusing the Ministry of Industry of wasting royal money.

Because of this, there was a lot of turmoil in the court, and finally the project was reluctantly stopped.

As for the craftsmen who participated, they returned to their respective departments.

This matter is solved, but the private robbery has just begun, although these people are low-class civilians, but after all, they have participated in the improvement of the rattan armor for several years, although they ultimately failed, but they have a lot of experience.

These craftsmen still have use value, and the two princes of Kyoto will definitely not let them go.

As a result, some people choose to be obedient when they know the times, and people like Lei Jiangtou who don't understand the world and are only obsessed with craftsman technology are not entered.

For this kind of person, the two princes were not used to it, and they were exiled directly, which was regarded as God's love, so that Su Qi'an met them in Jiaozhou.

With them on board, the improvement of the vine armor is on the right track.

In the daily visit and exchange with Su Qi'an, Su Qi'an just said simply, whether you can start with the weaving process, and try to add some non-flammable materials.

It was this sentence that directly woke up the head of the thunder craftsman, and soon made the first batch of improved rattan armor.

The biggest difference in the weaving process of this batch of improved rattan armor is that the former is not closely connected in the weaving, leaving gaps between each other, which are very small and almost negligible, which can be called pores.

In the production of rattan armor, a tung oil soak is added, and the surface of the rattan armor has an extra layer of fish skin, in order to be non-flammable.

The reason for the fire before was that the weaving was not tight, there were no air holes, and the air flow could not flow, and once it caught fire, it was only burned.

And this improvement, through the air flow of the pores, even if the fire is ignited, the surface is protected by tung oil and fish skin, and the whole person is burned, unless the whole person is thrown into the fire and burned.

It is undoubtedly wishful thinking to stop them just by the rockets that are being fired.

The improved rattan armor can be powerful, and the people in the R&D department such as the head of the thunder craftsman have made great contributions.

Su Qi'an is more or less, he has picked up a batch of treasures, and without the help of the head of the thunder craftsman, it is not so easy for Su Qi'an to succeed in research and development.

Although the research and development was successful, the difficulty of production has increased significantly, even if the people in the factory area are rotating continuously, until now, they can barely be equipped with one regiment of rattan armor.

It is somewhat difficult to expand production, after all, the personnel under his jurisdiction, each group of people, have their own tasks, and it is impossible to devote all of them to making improved rattan armor.

Of course, the most important thing is that the improved rattan armor is a highly confidential project, and those who can participate in it are all absolutely loyal and reliable to Su Qi'an.

Ordinary people put it in, who can guarantee that there will be no mistakes, therefore, congenitally, the scale of manufacturing rattan armor cannot be expanded.

Such a scale is enough at present, and Su Qi'an is not in a hurry.

Now almost all of his 4,000 people have changed their weapons and armor in their hands.

If the number of people is not occupied, then make a fuss about weapons and equipment, and the effect is obvious.

A regiment of soldiers, even if the sky was full of fire in front of them, they were not afraid of death and rushed straight away.

In front of him, regardless of whether he is an elite native, or an ordinary native, as long as he makes contact, it will only take a dozen breaths at most to tear apart the defense line.

No matter how dense it is, the 10,000 natives who are blocking them look like a piece of paper from a distance, torn apart by the impact of a group of soldiers, or it won't be long before it is directly shattered.

Behind, the two elders sitting on the sedan bed, his face was quite calm, but his slightly trembling hands betrayed his inner turmoil.

Before breaking through the defensive line, the native guards around the two elders quickly retreated as fast as they could, preparing to escape.

To deal with the rattan armor soldiers, you have to attack with fire, and now the fire attack is useless, this group of cool soldiers is not afraid of death, with the blessing of the rattan armor, let alone ten thousand people, even if there are ten thousand people, it is not enough to cut.

If you don't run at this time, when will you wait?

When the two elders retreated, in order to buy him time to block, the two elders ordered to raid the two wings and quickly return to defense.

After all, no war is as important as his life at the moment.

The natives of the two wings, who fought fiercely with the cavalry regiment, after receiving the order, although their faces were ugly, still carried out the order.

Leaving three thousand people, the rest of the people rushed towards the attacking vine armor soldiers as much as possible, trying to buy time for the two elders to escape.

The escape of the two elders naturally couldn't escape Su Yong's gaze, he shouted, and the vine armor soldiers behind him immediately rushed forward, each holding a halberd, and after killing the natives in front of him in one fell swoop, they rushed forward with the corpses of the natives.

At this time, Su Yong jumped up, stepped on the halberd, took advantage of the momentum to jump, and his body flew forward.

When he was about to land, under his feet, there were more than a dozen halberds, and Su Yong jumped again and continued to fly towards the front in the air.

Every time he fell, there were always rattan armor soldiers to respond, and Su Yong walked thirty or forty zhang in this way, in more than a dozen breaths.

The goal of the two elders is getting closer and closer, and it is less than a hundred zhang or so, if he continues to let it go, Su Yong is likely to catch up with the two elders.

When the four priests saw this, they shouted in unison, "Shoot him down with arrows, and stop him!"

The four priests returned to the rescue at the same time, but they were injured by a hidden arrow shot from nowhere, and then the vine armor soldiers stepped forward and had to fight fiercely with them.

At this time, the natives who came back to their senses fired arrows into the air, but Su Yong's body was like a flexible monkey, and the arrows came when they came, but they didn't hurt Su Yong for half a point.

The faces of the priests who watched this scene turned pale, and one of them barely got out of the way and shouted.

"A bunch of rubbish, the arrows miss, with knives, halberds, maces, and maces, will also be beaten down for me."

Hearing this, the natives gritted their teeth, regardless of whether their weapons would hurt their companions.

The weapons in the sky were thrown towards Su Yong, not to mention that this trick was really effective.

After dodging the flying sword, Su Yong couldn't dodge, his arm was hit by a mace, his body was unstable, and he fell from mid-air.

Seeing this, the surrounding elite natives immediately held their halberds, and under the cover of many natives, approached Su Yong, who fell from mid-air, at the fastest speed.

The halberd in his hand was raised fiercely, saying that this time, he would also make Su Yong feel cold.

At this moment, more than a dozen wind-breaking sounds suddenly sounded in the air behind him.

Before the elite natives could come to their senses, a dozen crossbow arrows shot them into a sieve.

"Su Yong, grab the rope!"

A shout rang out, immediately after, after

A long rope flew in the air, Su Yong grabbed it subconsciously, and the long rope dragged Su Yong's body over.

Just as he was about to hit the ground, his body landed on his horse, and around him, a large group of heavily armored cavalry roared towards him.

Su Yong came back to his senses, looked at Er Meng who was passing by, and said, "Mengzi, why are you here, those pursuers? Did they break through your defenses?"

Er Meng smiled and said, "Hehe, what do you think, just 3,000 people want to stop me, really when the cavalry regiment is vegetarian? Don't worry, brother, the people of the cavalry regiment are still fighting fiercely with the natives, and I don't worry about you here, so I came to support with a hundred heavy cavalry."

"Brother, this is not the time to speak, go and chase the two elders, leave it to the brothers here."

Su Yong nodded heavily, held a halberd in his hand, rode a heavily loaded horse under him, and rushed forward. Look at the book

The natives around tried to stop it, but they were trampled into flesh by a charge of the hundred cavalry heavy armor soldiers behind Ermeng.

This is the strength of the heavy armored cavalry, in the era of cold weapons, as long as the gunpowder is not mass-produced, forming a hot weapon, the heavy armored cavalry is the absolute king.

If Su Qi'an had a thousand heavy armored cavalry in his hands, the 10,000 natives in front of him would definitely suffer heavy casualties.

With the cover of the heavy cavalry, all the obstacles in front of him were basically trampled into pulp.

The line of sight is called an open one, Su Yong rode a horse, and attacked quickly, where can the sedan bed of the two elders be compared to a high-speed horse.

In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two sides was less than thirty or forty zhang, and as they approached, the halberd in Su Yong's hand shook fiercely.

The halberd cut through the sky and shot directly into the sedan bed, wiping the hair of the two elders, and piercing the back of the backrest.

The body of a person carrying the sedan chair in front of him pierced and fell down directly, and the sedan bed was unstable and stepped down directly.

Su Yong took advantage of the galloping horse, jumped violently, and jumped directly into the sedan bed.

There was some shaking in the sedan bed, and when it calmed down, Su Yong was holding a dagger in his hand, and it was already dead against the neck of the two elders.

At this time, Su Yong was like a fierce beast, his eyes exuded scarlet, as long as he was willing, the two elders would be killed immediately.

"Two elders, let's take a trip!"
