Datang Lingnan King

Chapter 24 Rattan Armor
With the departure of Yu Chigong and others, Zhujiazhuang returned to its old routine. Feng Daiwen spent all day in the workshop and designed several kinds of weapons and equipment.

The long-handled horse-cutting knife, shaped like a mo-dao, has a sharp point that can be stabbed or chopped. The cavalry charge only needs to place the knife obliquely and horizontally, and it can cut people in two without swinging it; It is 2 meters long and can be used as a normal long spear. When dealing with cavalry, the rear end of the back can be removed. There is a buckle in the middle. It only needs to be twisted to form a super long spear with more than ten feet. The short stick on the back can be used as a spare weapon , because the end of the short stick is also equipped with a short spear head. When the spear formation is formed, the tail end is inserted into the ground. It is difficult for the cavalry to break through even the heavy cavalry. There is also a small round shield attached to the forearm, which can be equipped with any type of arms.

Rattan armor, Feng Daiwen saw the rattan armor equipped by Lianren in Lingnan. It is very good for defending bows and arrows, and ordinary weapons can't be broken once. The defense against heavy weapons is better than iron armor. It is light and cheap. Lingnan navy It is a must-have item. It is used as a life jacket. The rattan armor is dried from vines, soaked in tung oil until the oil is soaked, and then dried. This is repeated three times. It took half a year to complete. The biggest disadvantage is that it is afraid of fire, so Feng Daiwen improved it. The rattan armor used by the land troops is still the sticky soil of Zhujiazhuang. The soil here is fine and sticky. One layer is pasted on the rattan armor to dry and another layer is pasted. After cutting it down, paste a layer of soil and it will be new. The only thing is that it is too ugly, like a statue, and it is very ugly. After all, they are ordinary farmers, and you can't ask for any aesthetic feeling.

Feng Daijin's recruiting work was also completed very quickly. After all, Feng Daiwen's name was very famous in Wannian County. He recruited 2000 people in Wannian County alone. As the news spread slowly, the nearby county town of Sanyuan County , people from Chang'an County and other places also flocked here, because Feng Daiwen's treatment was so good, there was enough food and meat, and it only took half a month to recruit all the people.

"Second brother, do you want to go and see when the soldiers are recruited?" Feng Daijin and Feng Daihuo came to Feng Daiwen's place to report together this day.

"Oh, come and sit down, fourth brother, fifth brother, have you eaten? Let's have some together." Feng Daiwen greeted, he was eating with Yaya, I have to say that after Yaya came, Feng Daiwen's life became more regular, after all, when it was time to eat Yaya will come to ask for dinner on time, it’s better not to eat, otherwise she will turn red and cry for you.

"Enough recruiting so soon? Don't let the conditions be too loose, but there are good seedlings?" After the two sat down politely, Feng Daiwen asked again.

In fact, this is because Feng Daiwen underestimated himself too much, not to mention the 18-year-old general with real power, and the name of the young prince of Wu Guogong, and the name was taken by the saint himself, this is the treatment that few people have, Except for Li Yuan's own son.

"Yes, there are several powerful ones, none of whom are my opponents, and two of them are very strong, the fifth one is not as good, and one is weaker, but has high martial arts skills, and the fifth one is no match for me." Feng Daijin excitedly He nodded and replied.

Feng Daihuo also lowered his head slightly ashamed.

Feng Daiwen persuaded with a smile: "Okay, after all, the fifth younger brother is young, and when he grows up, he will definitely be stronger than them. What are those names?"

Hearing this, Feng Daihuo raised his head and nodded firmly to Feng Daiwen, grinning confidently.

"The one with great strength is called Xue Rengui, the one with Xi Junmai, the one with high martial arts is called Su Dingfang, and the other two brothers are also very strong, but they are poor in martial arts, called Chen Hu and Chen Xiong." Feng Daijin replied after thinking for a while.

Pfft... Feng Daiwen spit out a mouthful of soup just now. I went to Xue Rengui, Xi Jun to buy it, and Su Dingfang. Xue Rengui has too much food, and the food at home is not enough, so he had to go up the mountain to hunt, ran far away, and went down the mountain to sell the game. With a lot of strength, he worked as a porter at the Weishui Wharf, and he came here with a quick mind when he heard that he was recruiting soldiers and the treatment was good. However, Su Dingfang had been hiding on the mountain after Liu Heida was defeated. In the end, Li Yuan decreed that Liu Heida's subordinates should be abolished. Hearing about Feng Daiwen's recruiting, let's take a look. After all, he has been fighting since he was a child and has no other skills, so he can only continue to eat this bowl of rice.

Now Feng Daiwen didn't have the heart to eat anymore, since these talented people came, he had to hold them tightly in his hands, quickly greeted the two of them to finish eating, and immediately rushed to the barracks with his brothers.
