The Summoning World of the Great Qin Empire

Chapter 972 Basic education is very important

Most of the Qin soldiers were armored, armed with spears and spears, and long swords for close combat were hung from their waists.

According to Fusu's perspective of his future generations beyond this era, he knows that on the battlefield, the sword is far more lethal than the sword.

This is the experience left over from thousands of years of bloody battles, and it really wasn't something Fusu made up out of thin air.

Fusu's idea is to recast the swords and adapt them all into war knives; but to make a war knives that all soldiers can easily handle, what changes is not only the weapons, but also the knives that the soldiers equip with each other. Law.

When it comes to saber techniques, Fusu feels that his Canglong Tunyue Saber technique can be taught to the army. This set of saber techniques is strong and fast, and it is very suitable for fighting in battle.

It's just that Fusu never expected that his first thought would be refuted by the six ministers headed by Fazheng. The reason is obvious, this is the method of battle set by his ancestors, and it cannot be easily changed.

Fusu called Fazheng to discuss it. Fazheng heard from the words that the emperor really wanted to change something, so he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the reforms in ancient times were never rushed. Your Majesty can call People deploy such a large army, and then pass the actual combat test, if it is really effective, it can naturally be promoted, but if it is not effective, please take it back."

"That's a problem." Fusu nodded, then stood up and said, "I asked someone to build a fortress for forging weapons outside the capital, follow me to see it."

"It's my honor!" Fazheng smiled slightly.

It can also be said that the castle was built for Ou Yezi to forge weapons. Fusu's idea is very simple. Since this person is a very famous master of forging weapons in history, he may not be the one who wants the kind of sword he wants. A very practical sword can be forged.

Not only limited to this, but also the iron armor of the soldiers. If the density of the iron plate can be increased, a lot of battle damage can be reduced. This is an invisible victory factor for war.

After arriving at the castle, some faint snowflakes were already floating in the sky, and the people above the school field were shooting the iron armor with bows and arrows to see if they could make an iron armor that would not be pierced in thirty steps.

Fusu waved his hand, and everyone stopped. As far as he knew, even the dragon pattern gold armor he was wearing couldn't be penetrated within thirty steps, unless the thickness was doubled, In this case, ordinary bows and arrows are really useless.

But if the reinforcement is doubled, the weight will become the biggest problem. Soldiers wear armor to fight, originally to protect their bodies from harm. If they really wear this very heavy armor, basically they can't last too long. If you continue to fight, you will get tired after a long time.

War, after all, depends on the most ordinary soldiers, otherwise, only strong generals are enough, so what do you need these soldiers for?
At this time, a samurai just opened his bow and shot the battle armor, and the bow and arrow were bounced off;
Fusu felt a little strange in his eyes, so he got off his horse and walked towards this side.

Seeing the emperor coming, the little official immediately bowed to salute, Fusu waved his hand, took the bow and arrow from the red-faced warrior, aimed at the armor and shot.

"clang--"

The arrow was still bounced off.

Fazheng sent someone to find Ou Yezi and said that the emperor had arrived.

Fusu looked at it, and felt that the mystery was on the armor, "Bring the armor here!"

The samurai responded, and quickly ran over and brought the battle armor to Fusu for a look.

Fusu stretched out his hand to touch it, and there was a place on the side of the battle armor that was dented with a thumb-sized point, but it was not shot through. The reason was that the battle armor was curved!

"He is really a smart person." After reading it, Fu Su also felt that his brain had opened up. He had affected this problem before, but as a person who traveled through time, he even forgot this!
In later generations of film and television, the helmets worn by all soldiers are curved, a bit similar to ordinary egg shells, as long as it is not the kind of very unlucky person who is hit in the middle by an egg shell, the helmet can be used Effectively protect soldiers from fatal injuries, because the arc can bounce bullets away.

Compared with bullets, the power of bows and arrows is naturally much worse, so just a slight arc can change a lot of things.

At this time, Ou Yezi, who came trotting all the way, knelt in front of the emperor and said long live.

Fu Su nodded and said: "Get up, I ask you, how did you come up with such a method?"

Ou Yezi said: "When I was in Huoren City, the soldiers caught turtles in the river and boiled them to eat. I saw that the turtles are very hard. If you smash them from the side, it is almost difficult to break them open, but if you smash them from the middle, they are hard to break." It's very easy, so Xiaguan had this idea. He didn't expect that after returning to the capital, he really only made this kind of armor with curved surfaces.

Fusu hung the battle armor in front of himself, feeling a little dissatisfied, and asked: "Have you ever thought about making the battle armor on the soldier's chest into a complete iron plate, which can cover the soldier's upper body? If it is a complete iron plate, the defense against bows and arrows will be even stronger."

At this time, chain armor was popular in the army, which was worn layer by layer with chains as thick as the thumb, and then draped over the body, with a battle armor on the outside. It cannot be said that it is completely useless to defend against bows and arrows, but the effect is not. It is very large, and under the dense rain of arrows, it will still turn into a hornet's nest. "

"But it is possible, but when quenching and forging iron, the problem is very serious, because no one can lift such a big hammer and make such a big iron plate!" Ou Yezi began to face difficulties again.

Fusu did have a flash of inspiration in his mind, manpower is not enough, but it does not mean that other forces are not enough.

Wind power and water power are very cheap natural resources. It is estimated that wind power generation will not be completed these days if everyone is called together from all over the country.

But Fusu felt that water power could still be utilized.

Before the name of the capital was changed, it was called Jicheng, and there was a river outside Jicheng called Zhishui; when Liu Bang, Liu Bei and others led the Northern Expedition and fought outside the capital, they used to draw water to control the water when the storm fell and the tide rose. The outer city walls of the capital city were knocked down, and even the top of the inner city walls were torn apart by the flood, almost successfully flooding the capital city.

So there is no shortage of water resources, what is lacking now is...how was the waterwheel invented, and what is the working principle?
