On the white road, there was a winding black belt in the middle, which was the carbon (coal) slag that fell from the cart. Along the way, you can see Ding Fu, who was pushing a wheelbarrow or driving a donkey cart, constantly delivering things to a house in the south.
Those carts were loaded with iron ore, iron blocks, wood, charcoal, charcoal, etc.
There was a constant noise coming from the front.
Guo Shao sat in the carriage, lifted the curtain and enjoyed the scene in the snow with great interest.
The quaint buildings and white snowflakes have a sense of artistic conception, but the little black smoke and noisy clanging noises from the roof chimney completely destroyed the poetic and picturesque feeling... Perhaps ancient poets would not like this scene, and Guo Shao felt inexplicably intimate.
Guodu inspected.Guodu’s inspection tour arrived and was in a bad mood to welcome him... Officials from the Jiafang Office, craftsman leaders and other people came to the door and met with him.
Guo Shao walked out of the carriage and waved his hand.
An official stepped forward to praise him, and Guo Shao said loudly: From today to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the officials and craftsmen on duty will be paid three times the reward.When you save money from the eunuch in the future, you can state what I mean.
He deliberately spoke loudly, and the craftsmen who were working were looking at each other.
Guo Shao walked to a dark man who was adding carbon, and said: Although I can't stop during the Chinese New Year, I'll make more money and go back to buy new clothes for my family. Are everyone happy, right?
Yes... The officials rushed to nod and bowed.
Bang!Suddenly, a loud noise shocked everyone who was not careful.
When Guo Shao turned his head to look, he saw a heavy forging hammer just falling down and smashing it. He could hear the sound of the chain rubbing at any time. The upper door part of the forging hammer crashed into the V-shaped connector and was pulled up by the chain.
A craftsman hurriedly took tongs and clamped out the things on the anvil, and then picked them up with his hands. It was a helmet.
Guo Shao also walked over and reached out to see... A thin plate of wrought iron was stamped and formed in an instant, a pair of helmets that were almost helmets; however, because the iron plate was slightly larger in size, there was a circle of hat brim on the plane of the hemisphere.
It looks different from the helmets worn by the soldiers, this is a wide-edged iron helmet.Guo Shao looked around and said, thinking for a while, if he used moving mail as a circle of ear protection on both sides, the protection of the head would be quite good.
The official from the Jiafang Office said: What Guodu inspector said is that the hat can be pierced on both sides with belts to secure the helmet... But we are not easy to make chain mail, and we don’t have enough manpower, so we have to be made by the master craftsman of the military weapon supervisor.
The craftsman leader Luo Jiye took over the topic: The most skilled master of armor-making can only make a piece of chain mail larger than a palm when working all day long.If you can't do that job without craftsmanship, you have to first punch out iron wire, burn red and make a ring, and then hammer it; then punch holes, and connect the iron ring with rivets to make an "iron cloth shirt".
After hearing this, Guo Shao nodded: Customize some chain armor for generals and elite soldiers, and use hard leather armor instead to save trouble.
He turned to see some annealed and hardened helmets placed on a door panel, so he went up and took one, handed it to Dong Er who was accompanying him for him to take it away.
They went to another workshop, where the breastplate was built.
The forging hammer and anvil are cast and polished into arc shapes and become molds; like stamped iron helmets, it will be a piece of armor once they are smashed... However, it is difficult to process thin iron plates. The forging and forging dozens of times have to be repeated, and then the blacksmith has to forge the edges and corners by hand.
It will be easier to process iron plates of a certain size. Put them in the anvil mold and smash them into pieces; if you don’t press them well, press them again.
Guo Shao took a look and looked over and over again, which almost suited his design intentions. His appearance was different from what he imagined, but as long as he had defense, it was fine.
Luo Jiye said: Only the front and side can protect it, and only the chest, abdomen and the back are empty, so I have to wear hard skin and short strokes.There are three parts for a pair of breastplate.One side is the front breastplate. After pressing the shape, you will use an iron hammer to knock the edges to protect the side waist. The user can also tap and adjust the size by himself, pull the larger one a little wider and close the smaller ones.The other two pieces are shoulder hanging, which are connected to the breastplate with rivets, which mainly play the role of fixing the breastplate.There are three small holes on each side, which are used to shuttle through the chain to bind the breastplate to make the armor tighter.
Guo Shao smiled and said: Just be able to defend the front, and you cannot attack the enemy soldiers with your back when fighting. If you are defeated and fled, it will be useless no matter how thick you wear, it will affect the speed of escape and you will not be able to run fast.
After hearing this, everyone laughed for a while.
This breastplate is also simple in design, it is actually an iron vest, but the back is empty.
The shoulder armor is a little more complicated. Because the arms need to move, several curved iron armors need to be inlaid with iron rings and rivets to achieve the purpose of combination. Even so, there is still resistance when the arms are wanted to lift them, and it is really difficult to move as light as a person when putting on the iron armor.
This batch of plate armor has a total of four groups of armor. The last one is the simplest type, an arm armor, a semi-cylindrical iron plate with a large top and a small bottom, with perforated edges.
When using it, just tap it first to adapt to the size, and then tie it to your arms with a hemp rope... There is still a part of the inside that is empty.
The head, chest, shoulders, arms and plate armor protection can prevent most of the damage.
Guo Shao himself started out as a young man and fought on the battle formation for several years, and he is very experienced in this.
These four places are particularly susceptible to injuries. The head and chest are fatal injuries, and the chest and abdomen are stabbed; the shoulders are prevented from chopping; and the arms are also easily attacked when using weapons.
However, it is not enough for the general to use plate armor, because for simplicity and efficiency, the protection is very incomplete; generals and wealthy soldiers with conditions must equip them with mail, especially the moving parts, so that the protection will be quite high... However, for ordinary soldiers, those who don’t even have a few pieces of armor on their bodies, with such protection, they will definitely be able to increase their courage because it is difficult to be killed.
Guo Shao walked around, and most of the workshop facilities were still under construction, and only two or three forging hammers in the yard have been put into use.
The noise is quite loud. If the entire city workshop starts to operate in the future, I don’t know how noisy it will be... But Guo Shao is too lazy to care about it, anyway, he won’t stay here.
The group walked out of the workshop and saw a cart transporting half of the pig in.Guo Shao called out on a whim: Slice the pork in two pieces.
At that moment, Dong Er asked to take off the chain mail on his body, wrap it on a piece of pork and hang it under the dead tree in the yard; he also asked someone to take out a piece of chest armor, tie it up with a rope and hang it on the tree.
Guo Shao had some movement and asked someone to take the two-stone strong bow.
Everyone finally understood what he wanted to do. An official flattered him: I have heard that Guo Du’s archery skills are like a god. Today I can open my eyes. It is a blessing for three lives!
Luo Jiye said seriously: When Guo Dujian shot Zhang Yuanhui on the battle formation, he became famous with one arrow, which was definitely not a false reputation.Someone said again: Tsk!The two-stone strong bow is not even able to pull it, let alone archery...
Guo Shao ignored them, but it sounded quite pleasant. No one knew that compliments were useless, but even if it sounded very pleasant, he couldn't avoid the vulgarity.
He immediately set off his bow and arrow, and pulled the bow to the two armors within fifty steps, and shot with a crackling sound, of course the arrow was shot without any slightest.Everyone shouted: OK OK OK OK!Guo Du's inspection was indeed like a god.
Guo Shao pulled the strong bow a few times, and was indeed a little exhausted. He threw the bow and arrow and said calmly: It is no problem to penetrate the Yang hundred steps, but in order to increase the armor-breaking power, he is close to it. It is nothing to shoot a big target at such a close... Go and take that thing over and check it.
Officials from the Afang Office rushed to carry things over, and everyone helped pull out the arrows and took out the pork inside.Seeing this, Guo Shao said: Sure enough, the defense of the plate armor is better!
After all, it was repeatedly forging the carburized steel plate. Within fifty steps, it was shot with a two-stone strong bow, but it was sunk into a pit, and the top of the arrow cluster pierced a little and shot the pig's skin. It can be imagined that the eight-dou bows that are often used in the battle formation are almost impossible to use this kind of plate armor, and they cannot even break the skin.
He looked at another piece of pig skin protected by chain mail, and pierced it completely, and broken iron wire remained on the wound.
He pulled out his short sword from his waist and looked closely at the pork. The arrow completely pierced the skin and fat meat, and had penetrated deep into the lean meat.
The defense of the chain mail on the arrow is also OK, but Guo Shao is close and has strong arm strength, so he shot through the armor.
The people around saw it and congratulated each other and praised the new academy.
Guo Shao said: Once the surrounding workshops are built, they will be on duty day and night, and they will be rushing to make armor!The required money, grain and raw materials will be prepared and submitted to the court. I will send someone to help you approve it.
An official immediately took out a booklet and presented it to him. Guo Shao smiled and put it directly into his sleeve bag: The court is very tight now and the money has to be spent on the surface.I will check this account carefully, there must be no problem?
The Guan'er glanced at Guo Shao's expression quietly, but Guo Shao was staring at him with a smile.
The official looked sad and finally bent down, looked at Guo Shao's sleeve and said: Guo Du checked the account. The official has not checked the account carefully. The account just now may have omissions. It is better to return the official and re-check it...
Guo Shao smiled a little, but it looked a bit like a treacherous smile: I gave it all, it would be not good to take it back.You draw one again, I want both.
this……
Guo Shao stepped forward and stroked his back and said kindly: It's okay, you just went to get the pork and saw that there was still oil on your hands, right?
Guan'er reached out to look at her palm, Yin Tang turned black, nodded and said: Yes, yes...
Guo Shao said: It’s just human nature. I can’t see that there is oil on your hands, so I cut your hands, right?
General Guo spares his life.Guan'er immediately fell to the ground with a plop.
Guo Shao helped him and said: Everyone said that he would not chop his hands, but it would be better to add a pair of gloves.Wang Shuling has worked hard, how can I remember it?I immediately turned around and said, "Come here, I will give the pork half to Wang Shuling. How meaning is it to dip some oil on my hand?"
Guan'er thoughtfully said: I understand, I understand...
Those carts were loaded with iron ore, iron blocks, wood, charcoal, charcoal, etc.
There was a constant noise coming from the front.
Guo Shao sat in the carriage, lifted the curtain and enjoyed the scene in the snow with great interest.
