Chapter 6039 Plate Armor
"In other words, Han Youqing made a mistake in judgment, or Qin Lanjiu didn't trust him. Anyi Mansion's troops were not sent to clear the north, but to come to me?" Qi Xingyun said calmly.
"That's right." Jiang Wulang nodded and said.
Wang Yun said in a panic: "Your Majesty, let's leave today! What if Qin Lanjiu attacks the camp tonight!"
Qi Xingyun said nonchalantly: "How alarming! You've come just in time! Get my armor!"
Since Qi Xingyun dares to let Luo Fengtang lead his troops away, and since he dares to show off his power in Qianzhou, he naturally has something to rely on!
The armor he asked Wang Yun to get was the latest hydraulically forged plate armor made by Daqi Science and Technology Garden.
Compared with mail armor made of a large number of small metal rings and scale armor made of small metal sheets, the defensive power of plate armor is naturally a higher level!
The plate armor accessories that Qi Xingyun gave to Luo Fengtang before were made of cages, knee pads, leg guards and large breast guards. These plate armor accessories made of fine steel were invincible on the battlefield.
The plate armor in Qi Xingyun's hands is naturally a new type of armor produced by Science and Technology Garden.
The protective power of plate armor is far superior to other iron armors at the same weight, and its flexibility is unmatched by other iron armors.
Daqi's foot armor was composed of 1,825 armor leaves and weighed 58 kilograms, which is roughly equivalent to the current weight of 70 kilograms.
Even the crossbowman is relatively light and weighs 66 kilograms, while the gunner and cavalry both weigh 70 kilograms.
This weight not only ensures the safety of soldiers, but also puts huge pressure on mobility and logistics.
The gap between strategic passivity and mobility caused by the lack of iron and horses in Daqi will no longer be a concern after the invention of plate armor.
The strategic passivity caused by Daqi's lack of horses and iron is comprehensive. Qi Xingyun continues to improve these two dilemmas of Daqi. Whether it is Chidao, military horse farms, or various policies, they are all making up for these two dilemmas.
Shortcomings.
The emergence of plate armor is just a patch to make up for these two dilemmas.
Qi Xingyun squinted as Wang Yun brought in the plate armor, and Jiang Wulang's eyes were filled with greed.
This is a trial production of plate armor, a total of four sets were produced.
In addition to the set experimented in the Science and Technology Garden, the Emperor of Da Qi has one set, Luo Fengtang has one set, and He Anyi has one set.
Two thousand steps away, he was shot by a crossbow and could not break the plate armor's defense.
Under the strategy of learning from Qi and gaining skills to control Qi, Han also had several imitation crossbow chariots.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. This armor has been tested. Each of our Qi soldiers will be equipped with one! Haha!" Qi Xingyun smiled with high spirits. The greed in Jiang Wulang's eyes was that of a general.
The greed of the peerless magic weapon.
And this greed is also an endorsement of plate armor.
Excellent performance, eye-catching polished surface, and good-looking accessories and textures. The curved breastplate reflects the sunlight and makes people dazzled.
After Qi Xingyun tied his leggings and put on the lining, he put the plate armor on his body. With Wang Yun's assistance, he put on various plate armor accessories.
Armed to the teeth, go to the battlefield yourself.
Qi Xingyun turned around proudly, this body of plate armor was very powerful!
Qi Xingyun was confident enough to put on a helmet and a mask. Even Qi Xingyun's eyes were hidden in the huge mask.
Qi Xingyun took two steps. This set of plate armor only weighed twenty-three pounds, but its protective power was already close to the strength of double-layer cold-forged armor, and it was even more defensive.
"Come with my horse! Today I will capture Qin Lanjiu alive in front of the battle!" Qi Xingyun laughed happily. With such a sharp weapon, how can he be afraid of Qin Lanjiu?
Qi Xingyun stepped on the stirrup hard and tried to get on the horse, but stepped on it twice.
Didn't go up.
"What about that, Wang Yun, come here and help..." Qi Xingyun realized that although the plate armor was half lighter, Qi Xingyun still couldn't bear the load.
Daqi's heavy cavalry also needs auxiliary soldiers to help lift their legs when mounting, as well as auxiliary tools such as stools for mounting.
Only the strongest among the strongest armies carefully selected by Luo Fengtang's National Protectorate Army, those who are the strongest among the strongest, can step on their own stirrups and mount their horses.
If Qi Xingyun can't go up, it won't be a shame.
He is not the main force of the National Defense Army, so it is normal that he cannot go up.
Qi Xingyun always felt that something was wrong with his logic, but he didn't know where the problem was.
Wang Yun did not respond and came forward. Instead, he pulled Dajia Yuzhu over and said with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, let's sit here."
Qi Xingyun looked at his black and white horse, then at his chariot, and finally shook his head with a sigh, took off all his plate armor, took off his leggings, and put on his regular clothes.
Qi Xingyun's head turned around. The reason why the Qi soldiers couldn't mount their horses was because the infantry armor weighed seventy kilograms. It was normal for them to need help if they couldn't get up.
But the clothes I wore only weighed twenty-three kilograms, and if I couldn't get on the horse, the problem would be extremely serious.
After Qi Xingyun took off the plate armor and put it away, he said: "General Jiang, this Science and Technology Garden is a little impatient in its work and has made this armor too big. If I don't fit it, I will give it to you."
Jiang Wulang's eyes shone brightly, and he said with a smile: "Really! Then I want it. Hehehehe!"
Jiang Wulang's eyes shone, like a lone wolf on the prairie seeing its prey, with that kind of greedy look. His hands kept stroking the armor. He took off the double-layer cold-forged armor on his body, and couldn't stop smiling on his face.
He put on his plate armor and put on his own plate armor accessories.
"It fits! It fits! Haha!" Jiang Wulang smiled wantonly.
A total of four sets of this plate armor were made, one set for experiments, one set given to Luo Fengtang, and one set given to He Anyi.
Even though He Anyi was so bored that he fought with crickets in Aries City, Qi Xingyun never forgot him and deserved every honor he deserved.
Qi Xingyun looked at the proud Jiang Wulang, shook his head feebly and said: "Virtue!"
It is an honor for the emperor to give the armor he has worn to his generals as a reward. It is a kind of holy favor and a kind of supervision for the generals.
Urged Jiang Wulang to make meritorious service as soon as possible and become a military governor.
As an emperor, why do you need to do everything yourself? Why do you need to do everything personally? The generals are naturally used for dispatching when there are things to do!
Qi Xingyun comforted himself repeatedly, but looking at Jiang Wulang's wantonness, there was still envy in his eyes.
Jiang Wulang's extremely beautiful armor appeared in front of the formation, and the Qi soldiers quickly formed a formation near the camp.
"Your Majesty, it would be most appropriate to set up a large formation at this time." Jiang Wulang said with a hint of regret.
Chapter completed!
