Chapter 669 Preliminary preparations(2/2)
The Qin State's weapons were indeed mainly bronze, but there was no bronze armor in terms of armor.
The main armor is covered with armor, and is supplemented with some iron armor.
Of course, only officers are qualified to be equipped with iron armor with amazing defense.
The Qin State's armor is exquisitely crafted and has perfect craftsmanship.
There was no wildlife protection law in this era, so the leather armor materials of Daqin were very widely sourced, and even rhinoceros leather were available.
The cavalry of the Qin Dynasty was equipped with large-scale equipment consisting of stone armor connected by limestone flakes and copper wires.
When he fought against the Allied Forces last time, Wang Xiao took the time to check it out. The armor formed by seven or eight hundred stone pieces together looked very imposing.
Wang Xiao knew that Baoji had a large amount of high-quality iron ore, and in Shenmu and other places, there were a lot of high-calorie value coal.
The Qin Dynasty's corvee service was no longer the main focus of building mausoleums, but began to build roads and mining.
Although there are not as many coal mines in Guanzhong as Sanjin, there are actually quite a few.
Although high-calorie coal will cause a large amount of phosphorus to appear when smelting iron ore, the iron tool will become fragile.
But in the current situation, we must first solve the difference between having and not having.
Coal with high calorie value can refine iron ore from earthen blast furnaces on a large scale.
This greatly improves metal production.
It was a small fight before, but now, Wang Xiao is really starting to do his best.
A large amount of iron material is smelted, which can provide farmers with more iron farm tools while providing them with large-scale military services.
More than 100,000 people were gathered to build roads, smelting iron, and making armored weapons. In three months, they provided more than a thousand sets of iron armored armor for the Qin Dynasty.
The real popularity of iron armor was during the Han Dynasty.
Now, thousands of iron-armored soldiers gathered together to rush hard, enough to defeat tens of thousands of soldiers.
As Zhengguo Canal began to be irrigated on a large scale, more and more iron tools began to become popular.
Wang Xiao finally couldn't hold back his heart and extended his big hand to his first goal.
