Chapter 448 One thousand five hundred people, one hundred and fifty pieces of armor made in one year
Chapter 448
"Elder General, this is not forging and pressing by human force, but hydraulic mechanical forging. A whole pair of armor pieces can be forged and pressed in just one day." Wang Yang couldn't help but laugh and explained with a smile when he saw the old guy's look of his eyes and his mouth was slanted.
Soon, the half-forged armor piece was passed to the hands of the ministers. Soon, the ministers who had originally suspected Wang Yang looked very unfair at this moment.
Yes, I was chatting here before and complaining about that boy Wang Yang, but what happened? Now I was slapped in the face with this guy with a dry guy.
Nima, a large number of important officials of the Song Dynasty court must have felt that their old faces were hot.
The military weapon supervisor, Lord Lu, was holding a semi-forged steel plate and stood in front of Wang Yang, as if he was about to break the casserole and ask the whole thing. "Mr. Wang, you have been to our military weapon supervisor with Your Majesty before. I believe you should know that ordinary iron armor pieces are easily forged and crushed. Why are your armor pieces so big but not afraid of forging and crushing at all? Or are there only these two finished products, and there are even those that are forged and crushed?"
"Mr. Lu is not saying this. What we use is not iron sheets at all. Now we can directly smelter out mild steel, so the armor sheets and decks of these armor are directly forged with mild steel..." Zhao Ji's light words once again made everyone take a breath.
You can't be more arrogant? Even if it's Xixia Crab, I heard that it was made with good cooked iron and it was made with hammers. But you should just use mild steel directly, and the quality of this mild steel is excellent. It can be said that with Lord Lu's old experience, I can't see any impurities and flaws on the surface of these mild steels.
At this time, Ma Shang brought two imperial guards carrying a large box back to the hall again. Inside the heavy box was the three Xixia wart armor collected by the emperor.
In the end, the Empress Dowager Gao Taotao spoke and decided to go outside the Yuehua Gate to test the armor. After all, you can't test it in a serious place like the court. If the bow and arrow make a mistake in the edge and shoot one or two unlucky people, that would be bad.
Once again, nearly a hundred civil and military officials came to the Yuehua Gate again, and in a place outside the Yuehua Gate, you can still see some cement that has not been completely cleaned up...
Everyone's memories immediately returned to that time. Well, especially those imperial guards who came under the orders, happened to be the imperial guards of the capital last time. When they heard that Wang Dacaizi was coming to test new equipment, the imperial guards of the capital felt that their heads had become three bigger.
However, in front of the Holy Destiny, they could not tolerate them quarrel, and they could only line up neatly outside Yuehua Gate with a look of despair. At this moment, more than a dozen soldiers were wearing armor for the scarecrow, including a pair of Western Xia wart armor and a pair of Yuanyou armor from the Song Dynasty.
When the two scarecrows were all dressed, everyone's eyes were mostly on the Great Song and Yuan dynasty armor that looked dazzling in the sun.
The Song and Yuan dynasties, which are round and smooth and shiny, are indeed very eye-catching. In comparison, although the Western Xia dynasties also look very exquisite, when it comes to the degree of charm, they are not comparable to the Song and Yuan dynasties, which are almost blinding by the reflection of the entire pair of armor.
"Please start from fifty steps, shoot every five steps, and go all the way to the five steps close to see how the defense of the two pairs of armor is?"
The Empress Dowager Gao Taotao helped the glasses on the bridge of his nose, turned his head, and waved to Wang Yang. "Little Wangqing family, are you so confident that this pair of armor really better than the Xixia wart armor?..."
"Empress, I never fight a war that is unsure, so you can watch it with peace of mind..." Wang Yang showed a sunny smile and pointed to the front. The fully armed and powerful imperial guards had already begun to draw their bows with arrows.
Fifty steps, shot on the Song Yuanyou armor, with only a crisp sound, and the arrow was bounced away directly, and the same Xixia wart armor also bounced away the arrow.
Soon, with the call from the commander of the imperial guards, they saw arrows shooting towards the two armors, but almost all of the arrows were bounced away, which made everyone's eyes lit up.
Whether at fifty steps or finally reaching a distance of only five steps, whether it is a regular bow and arrow of one and a half to two stones, or even the slashing crossbow, it is impossible to completely penetrate the two pieces of armor in front of you.
In the end, only Jizhang Bird finally penetrated the armor of the Xixia Crab armor at a distance of twenty steps. After the mild steel was built, the arc-shaped Song Yuanyou armor was quenched and tempered again. It was at ten steps that Jizhang Bird had just shot in.
Now everyone was silent, while the old generals were crying. They murmured in a low voice, or mourning their comrades who had died on the battlefield.
Next, we began to use those swords, guns, swords and hammers to ravage these two armors wildly. Seeing the officials in the military weapon surveillance hurt, they also knew that whether a pair of armor was sophisticated or not, it really needed to go through such a cruel test.
Especially when the one-handed golden gourd hammer is hammered, although the Xixia wart armor is not broken, everyone can see that the armor is already sunken and the grass chips are beginning to fly.
On the other side, although the pair of Song Yuanyou armor was sunk by the golden armor hammer, the degree of sunk was like small pits as small as half fists, and the entire breastplate still seemed to be unshakable.
"Although the defense of the entire pair of armor seems to be slightly better than that of the Xixia Crab Armor, it is not much more than..." Even though he knew that this pair of Song Yuanyou Armor could be slightly better than that of the Xixia Crab Armor, Ning Shangshu didn't want to see that Wang Yang was too proud.
"Ningqing family, Ai family heard you before. This kind of forging of Xixia wart armor seems to be more complicated than the forging of Buren armor in the Song Dynasty, right? I wonder how long it will take for such a pair of Xixia wart armor to be forged." After hearing Ning Shangshu's words, Gao Taotao smiled faintly, pushed the glasses on his nose and asked softly.
"This... I think it's not too different from the Burenjia that I have forged in the Song Dynasty today..." Ning Shangshu couldn't help but blush when he heard this, but he could only answer with a stingy forehead.
"In other words, if one thousand five hundred people make armor in one year, you can get one hundred and fifty pieces of Dasong Bu people's iron armor, right?"
"What the Empress said is very much."
"Little Wangqing's family, how much manpower did you use to make these two pairs of Song Yuanyou armors? How long did it take to do it?" Gao Taotao turned his face and said to Wang Yang with a smile.
