Chapter 209. Wrestling! Domination!

This time, Wang Hou brought a lot of things. He almost got all the output of the Rizhao Iron Smelting Workshop one and a half months after the completion of the Rizhao Iron Smelting Workshop. The conventional weapons of this era were more than 2,000 willow-leaf spears, more than 3,000 halberds, and two thousand ring-headed swords. More importantly, Wang Hou promised that Zang Ba’s heavy armor would bring him one thousand collars.

However, this armor has four models, with a large plate armor breastplate pressed under the cast pig iron mold and smashed with a water hammer and a hammer. This way, the armor is the simplest to build and the largest number, with a total of 600 collars.

Then there is Wang Hou's personal army now equipped, the lobster armor 200-collar collar similar to the equipment of the ancient Roman army.

The chain mail has a hundred collar. This thing is made of pull-out steel wire and is knitted into iron rings one by one, and then woven using the densest eight-ring continuous buckle method.

This thing is too complicated to create! Twenty blacksmith apprentices were drawn out for more than 20 days before they made it. Just when Wang Hou was so depressed that he wanted to give up on this thing, he sewed new clothes for him. Lu Ji, who came in to measure his figure, suddenly reminded him that the chain mail did not need to be built with heavy hammers like the deck and slat armor. What he needed was patience, and women could also help make it!

He was over 22,000 residents in Rizhao City, and only 8,000 adult males were added. There were more than 10,000 soldiers and bandits specially recruited. Women had more than 10,000. In fact, Wang Hou did not make good use of this part of the manpower. After all, moving and building houses and ironworking are heavy work, and women's strength is not very useful. They can only be allowed to be housewives. They just had housework, and they helped to move less bricks, coal, and cement.

After the toilet was opened, he specially recruited more than 200 women to form a mail production workshop. He didn't even need to rebuild the production workshop. Every day, he took out the burning and leaked through the holes and quickly cooled the iron wire. These women returned home leisurely with scissors and pliers. With the remaining five days, they gave him 200 sets of mail, or mail with shoulders and waist protection.

This thing replaced the previous slat armor in the late Roman period, and in the long medieval period, it was almost a large number of equipment for Western countries. Although Wang Hou was not as good as making the simplest stamping armor in terms of defense and weight, he won because of his fit and agility of movement. In the initial battle, the type of imitation of Roman Circle armor was already created by him. After actual combat, soldiers had already reacted to the difficulty of wearing and inflexible movements. Chain mail was likely to become a substitute for slat armor, so Wang Hou left 100 collars and only gave Zang Ba 100 collars.

The remaining 100 collars are traditional scale armored armor. They are made of leather and are sewn with iron wire. However, compared with Hanza armor of this era, Wang Thick's new armor is intertwined layer by layer, about twice the density, but the weight has also doubled, which is worthy of heavy armor!

The reason why Wang Hou gave Zang Ba four types of armor was that he had no good intentions. He simply regarded Zang Ba's troops as test items to test which armor was in the weight, protection and agility, and chose the most suitable one, and then equipped his own troops on a large scale.

However, Zang Ba naturally could not know that Wang Hou was so colorful. Not only was he full of gratitude, he also put on the set of leather armor specially made by Wang Hou for him, imitating the Tang Dynasty Mingguang Armor, with double heart protection mirrors. The heavy feeling and rustling sound, Zang Ba also used an unknown boxing technique to move vigorously, then he suddenly stopped and nodded in admiration.

"Good armor! Good armor! If the governor gave him armor, he would be as good as a fish to ride on the battlefield!"

"Haha, it's good that the general likes it! There are a few gadgets in thick, please give it a look! This is a steel crossbow, and it's not concealed by the general. This crossbow is not as effective as the standard crossbow in the army. It can be more powerful than making it. This time, I have brought a thousand pieces to the general! Is it easy to do it first!"

He is truly a powerful general of Mount Tai. Wang Hou can only pull the steel crossbow with his feet. Zang Ba actually pulled the pedal with one hand and pulled the string with the other hand. He raised the arrow and shot out the red paint pillar not far away. With a thump, the three-sided crossbow arrow was nailed firmly inside.

"It's not as good as the military crossbows, but there are as many as a thousand, and they are worth using them!"

Holding a crossbow, Zang Ba was a very experienced driver and said in a pertinent manner, especially his words of 1,000 were considered to be a perfect match for Wang Houxin.

During the Western Han Dynasty, the equipment rate of Han military crossbows was said to have reached about 35%. However, at that time, the society was mainly self-cultivated farmers, and the country was strong, and the large-scale equipment was complex. It was naturally no problem to make large-scale equipment and make big yellow crossbows. However, in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the main social class was gradually replaced by large landlords and aristocratic families, and the social wealth was somewhat similar to the late Ming Dynasty. Like a top, the court and the people were thin at both ends, and the family was thick in the middle, and the court's military preparations gradually declined.

This trend was even more obvious at the end of the Han Dynasty when the aristocratic family rose. Qu Yi, the general under Yuan Shao, first climbed the camp and became famous for his powerful crossbows. Gongsun Zan, who had fought in the Battle of Jieqiao, was defeated by the cavalry, but there were only three thousand. Cao Zongzan was managed by Wang Hou, and Xu Du Armament had only five thousand powerful crossbows. In this case, Zang Ba is now given a thousand powerful crossbows. Even if he is a little weak, he is already considered to be his determination!

"There is another good treasure, please move to the scholastic site!"

This is a surprise enough today, but Wang Hou is still so show off that he really raised Zang Ba's interest. He put down the steel crossbow and bowed heavily.

"Please ask!"

…………

What is the master or subordinate? Wang Yuan was originally a very honest and simple man, and he was also led into a firecracker under Wang Hou's hands. Under his angry fingers, there were about fifty bandits sweating profusely, and they were assembling something there in a panic. Seeing the four wheels pressing heavily on the ground, even though they were mentally prepared, Zang Ba's heart still couldn't help but beat violently. After a few seconds, he turned around quickly and asked Wang Hou's breath with a heavy breath.

"State Master, this is..., Hui Hui cannon?"

"That's right!"

The reputation of Huihuan cannons was broken, and it was also known to everyone in the world as Yuan Shao's hegemony was broken. Especially in the battle of Cangting, he once again defeated Yuan's 100,000 troops. Even Zang Ba was disgusted and he never thought that he could have such a big killing weapon! Excited, Zang Ba even lost his composure and bowed deeply to Wang Hou.

"The state patriarch has such a trust and trust. He is willing to follow the state patriarch's leader and serve the state patriarch's work!"

Hearing this, Wang Hou's slim old face once again showed a strong smile.

Of course, he is not that naive. This little favor can really make Zang Ba and Zhao Yun so devoted to becoming his gold medal thug, and he can go wherever he wants. Even between Chen Deng and him, there is still a distance between the old man Chen Deng and the Chen family! What's more, Zang Ba is the thief.

But with his words, it is still possible to mobilize Zang Ba's Taishan Army to do something. Wang Hou also saw the brilliance of his smile! He said with a smile.

"General Zang is so serious!"

"But now that the general has this powerful weapon, wouldn't he find a fat sheep to try the blade? Hou seems to be very good at Zhucheng County! Just before this New Year, the general will give his subordinates some holiday benefits. Hou can also offer a tribute to the Prime Minister. What do you think?"

As expected, he is worthy of being the leader of the big thief. What he said just now is nonsense. Under this excitement, he paused and thought for two or three seconds before he happily turned his fist at Wang Hou...

"Ba Gong invites the state's governors to hunt in Zhucheng!"

"General Zang's kindness, how dare you smear the general's kindness! Haha!"
