Chapter 61: Unexpected Paper Armor

"Aggressive ......"

It was still the previous martial arts arena, accompanied by the sound of some dull arrows hitting the target, but none of the crossbow arrows just shot by several sergeants hit the target, and all of them were accurately nailed to the arrow target twenty paces away.

To be precise, it was nailed to the book that was fixed on the target.

"Alas!"

Looking at the crossbow arrows on the arrow target, not to mention the second master, even Zhao Yun, the person who proposed the idea of paper armor, couldn't help but sigh in disappointment.

No way, facts speak louder than words, this paper armor can't protect against arrows.

"Ding!"

However, just when Zhao Yun and the others were still disappointed in the defense of this paper, as a breeze blew, they saw that one of the crossbow arrows that was originally nailed to the book fell down with a ding.

"Well, didn't penetrate?"

Looking at the fallen crossbow arrow, Zhao Yun, who was originally extremely disappointed, couldn't help but light up suddenly, and hurriedly ran towards the arrow target.

"Hahahaha, young lord, prince, none of these crossbow arrows have penetrated the armor!"

After some inspection, Zhao Yun was excited to take back the arrow target nailed to the book.

"Huh? Indeed, as Zilong said, this deepest arrow can only penetrate a book of Analects! ”

Looking at the arrow target that Zhao Yun retrieved, the second master, Mi Fang and others were also excited.

Yun understood, this is because the book has not been compacted. If you press it tightly and compact......"

After carefully checking the different armor penetration conditions of several crossbow arrows again, Zhao Yun quickly summed up the cause of this phenomenon, and the paper of the book was not compacted.

"Uncle Yun, try to wet this book again!"

After hearing the reason summarized by Zhao Yunzhen, Liu Chan's heart suddenly moved, and he put forward the idea of letting Zhao Yun soak this book and try again.

"Uh, this ......"

Although it proved that this paper armor did have a defensive effect, Zhao Yun couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive when thinking of the characteristics of paper that rotted when it came into contact with water.

"Uncle Yun, there is always rain and snow in this march and battle, so you can't stop fighting on a rainy and snowy day, haha......"

Looking at Zhao Yun's somewhat apprehensive expression, Liu Chan, who actually knew the results of the wet paper test, couldn't help but use the method of agitation against him again at this moment.

"Well, the young master is right, there is always a sunny day when the army is marching and fighting!"

Nodding, Zhao Yun also let go of the apprehension in his heart, took a few more books prepared by Liu Chan, soaked them and flattened them and fixed them on the arrow target.

"Come again!"

Soon, after fixing the soaked books, with Zhao Yun's order, several sergeants who had already prepared once again shot the crossbow arrows in their hands at the arrow target.

"Aggressive ......"

"Dingdingding......"

In the blink of an eye, several lightning-fast arrows struck the book on the target again.

It's just that, compared to the previous time, the arrow, which should have been easier to pierce the book, only stayed on it for a few breaths this time, and then all fell down with a clang.

"This ...... Why is that? ”

Seeing that the result of the matter was completely contrary to expectations, Zhao Yun, the person concerned, was so shocked that he was about to stuff his mouth into a fist.

"Haha, didn't Uncle Yun just say that this book was pierced a lot by crossbow arrows before, because the paper was not compacted? Now that the paper is soaked in water, the paper is naturally more tightly bonded to each other......"

Liu Chan, who really didn't know how to explain to these 'ancients', looked at the shocked looks of everyone present, so he could only fool them with the reason that the paper could fit more tightly after being wet.

"If that's the case, wouldn't this paper armor be more suitable than the iron armor if it is equipped for the navy?"

Seeing that a few books soaked in water actually blocked the close-range shooting of the crossbow, the second master couldn't help but light up in the eyes.

You must know that because of the special battlefield environment of the naval army, the iron armor is too easy to rust. Therefore, if nothing else, it takes a lot of energy to maintain it alone.

Therefore, after seeing the defensive effect of this paper soaked in water, the second master, the general who is the best at water warfare under his father, can't help but let go of his previous doubts about paper armor at this time.

"Yun Chang, Shicai has only tested the protection against arrows, I think it's better to try the sword again. If so......"

Seeing that the second master, who was still questioning before, also agreed with the paper armor at this time, Zhao Yun 'ended' it instead.

"Zilong is just too cautious, even if the paper armor can only defend against arrows, it is already useful!"

Seeing that Zhao Yun was going to test the defensive ability of this 'paper armor' against the sword again, Mi Fang on the side could only shake his head helplessly.

"Hehe, the ordnance matter is not sloppy, let's try it!"

As he spoke, Zhao Yun immediately drew out his saber and prepared to test it himself.

"I said Zilong, even if you want to test it, you don't need to hold the Qingyu Sword, right?"

Seeing that Zhao Yun was actually preparing to test this parallel 'paper armor' with the Qingyu Sword seized from Changbanpo, Mi Fang, who was afraid that this paper armor would be canceled because of this, couldn't help but be speechless for a while.

You know, this green sword can be easily cut through even iron armor. In his opinion, it was not easy to cut the paper armor that was passed off from the book.

"Haha, uncle think about it from another angle, if this paper armor can even defend against the Qingyu Sword, wouldn't it be more indicative of his protective power?"

Although he didn't know that there was such a thing as paper armor in history, with the example of successfully blocking the crossbow shooting before, Liu Chan was full of confidence in this.

"Boom!"

Just as Liu Chan was speaking, he saw a flash of sword light, and the Qingyu Sword in Zhao Yun's hand had already slashed heavily on several water-soaked books stacked on the stone table in front of him.

"Haha, it turns out that Zilong also knows that he regrets the sword and refuses to do his best!"

Looking at the book on the stone table that had been cut down by almost one and a half years, Mi Fang, who was relieved, couldn't help but joke with Zhao Yun.

"Click!"

However, just as he finished speaking, with a soft sound, I saw that the stone table where the books were originally placed was directly split in half at this moment.

Needless to say, Mi Fang was directly slapped in the face by Zhao Yun with practical actions.

"Shhh

Looking at the books that had not been completely cut even if the stone table had been cracked, except for Liu Chan, who had expected it, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

You must know that the long sword in Zhao Yun's hand is not an ordinary product, it is the Qingyu Sword that Cao Cao snatched!

This armor that even the Qingyu Sword can prevent, what other weapon can't be stopped?

"Big brother, you want to try it too?"

Looking at Liu Feng, who didn't care much about this matter beside him, he also had an eager expression, but Liu Chan was moved in his heart, picked up a few books again, soaked them in water, and placed them on the stone bench next to Liu Feng.
