Gao Fei and Gong Shu Fei's trip to Mount Tai was not in vain. Although the Mohist family no longer existed, they got the essence of the Mohist organization. In addition, Gao Fei and Gong Shufei persuaded Zang Ba and his group, which was regarded as a win-over.
Got a general.
In addition, traveling through states and counties along the way allowed him to thoroughly penetrate behind enemy lines and learn about many unstable factors in Yuan Shao's territory, which helped him plan a strategy to attack Jizhou in the future.
After returning from Mount Tai, Gao Fei quickly held a wedding with Gong Shufei. However, it was a small wedding. Apart from a few close friends, Gao Fei invited no one to attend. It's not that he didn't want to have a big wedding.
, but the government refused to let the Philippines lose, and she didn’t like the excitement.
On the second day of the wedding, Gao Fei was still sleeping soundly in the wedding room with Gong Shufei in his arms. The lingering experience last night made him feel so sleepy that he didn't wake up until midnight.
"Dong dong dong!"
The sound of knocking on the door woke up Gao Fei. When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was already dawn, so he put on a coat, got out of the bed, and went straight to the door.
Opening the door, Gao Fei saw Gao Lin standing outside. He yawned and asked, "You knocked so hastily. Is there something urgent?"
Gao Lin nodded, clasped his fists and said, "My lord, Mr. Xun has returned from Yuyang and brought back a batch of armors that he was ordered to supervise. I would like to invite my lord to take a look."
Gao Fei said: "Okay, I understand. You go ahead. I'll change my clothes and come back."
"promise!"
After closing the door, Gao Fei returned to the bedside, found a set of thick clothes, and put them on. Seeing that Gong Shufei was still sleeping, he did not disturb her. He now has three women, Diao Chan, Cai Yan, and Gong Shu Fei.
, three women with three different charms, each of them can give him physical satisfaction, and he has nothing else to ask for.
After leaving the room, Gao Fei walked straight towards the hall.
In the hall, Xun You was sitting on a chair, quietly waiting for Gao Fei's arrival. There were several types of armors placed on the floor of the hall. Gao Lin was squatting on the ground inspecting each one with a look on his face.
With a hint of joy.
"Join the army, isn't this armor too thick?" Gao Lin mentioned a armor made of fine steel. The entire armor was like a vest, which was put directly on the person's body, with a stripe on the front, chest and back.
The thick steel plate is lined with a layer of leather in the middle and inside to avoid rubbing against the skin when it comes into contact with the skin.
Xun You said: "This is called thick plate armor. My lord said that I need this kind of plate armor to block the enemy's arrows and prepare to form a heavy infantry battalion."
Gao Lin said: "My dear, the armor alone weighs almost forty pounds, and the two steel plates at the front and back are enough to withstand the attack of any weapon."
"Indeed, this kind of plate armor is only one inch thick. I asked the soldiers to pierce it with a steel spear. As a result, only a little of the spear tip went in, and most of it was still behind. It is considered the strongest type of armor. However, if a person can penetrate it,
Wearing this kind of armor will consume a lot of energy. Think about it, a forty-pound thing is pressing on your body every day. You can usually run well, but you will become stronger after wearing this armor.
It's not enough." Xun You said all the advantages and disadvantages of this kind of plate armor.
Gao Lin put it down casually, picked up a combined armor next to him, and asked: "Join the army, what kind of armor is this? It looks like it covers the whole body, even the head and face."
in."
Xun You said: "My lord calls it armor, which means armor that covers the whole body. My lord said that this kind of armor can completely wrap up a person's vital points, and with a very long tag, it can go back and forth among the enemy."
conflict."
Gao Lin was very curious and wanted to put it on. Xun You didn't object and asked someone to dismantle the armor and put it all on Gao Lin.
At this time, Gao Fei happened to walk in from the outside and saw Gao Lin wearing a new type of armor. He was very satisfied after seeing it. This kind of armor was tailor-made by him based on the knights of the Cold Weapon Age in Western Europe. Now he sees
Gao Lin's whole body was covered with such a layer of armor, it was as if he had really seen the European knights resurrected. The difference was that most of the European knights' armors were made of silver, while his armor was made of steel.
The splendor and brightness of European knight armor.
Gao Lin wore a helmet, which completely covered his face. Only a pair of eyes shot out from the face armor in front of his face. His body was a complete set of closed armor, which perfectly described his
The majestic body was completely covered.
The two shoulders of the armor are even higher, and then seven or eight carefully crafted steel sheets bent into appropriate arcs are stacked one by one to the elbows. This shingled covering method not only can
It completely protects the arm and allows the entire arm to move to the maximum extent, making this armor take care of the two major contradictions of protection and joint movement to the maximum extent.
The armor is also connected to the lower limbs. The plate armor in the belly of the armor reaches to the lower stop, and it also adopts the same design as the arms on the thighs. Overall, the whole set of armor is not only very shocking, but also
It can make people feel the indestructibility of this armor and the super strength of the person wearing this armor.
"Well, this is exactly the style I wanted. It seems that the steel factory has finally made this armor." Gao Fei walked straight into the hall and said happily.
As soon as Gao Lin and Xun You heard that Gao Fei was coming, they hurriedly worshiped: "See you, my lord!"
Gao Fei said: "No need to be polite, Gao Lin, are you wearing something heavy? How much do you think it weighs?"
Gao Lin said: "It's a bit heavy, but it's not as heavy as thick plate armor. It weighs about thirty-five pounds."
"How about you take two steps and give it a try." Gao Fei wanted to know the performance of this armor thoroughly, so he said to Gao Lin.
Gao Lin then took two steps and moved his joints. It felt okay and not so awkward, so he flew high.
Gao Lin looked at the chainmail, fish-scale armor and other different armors on the ground, and said to Xun You: "Joining the army, you have worked hard these days. How many of these various armors have you made?"
Xun You said: "My lord, after the joint efforts of the craftsmen in the past six months, there are 10,000 pairs of plate armor, 5,000 pairs of covered armor, 40,000 pairs of chain armor, and 30,000 pairs of fish scale armor..."
After Gao Fei listened, he said: "Very good, with these armors, there won't be too many casualties in future wars. Gao Lin, issue all the new armors in the arsenal, chain armors
Give all the archers fish-scale armor and fish-scale armor to the infantry. In addition, 10,000 strong men will be drawn from the military camp to wear fish-scale armor. Another 5,000 cavalry will be drawn to wear full-body armor. In addition, battle armor for horses should also be produced.
Alright?"
"They have all been sent to the warehouse and have been registered in the warehouse. Not a few items are missing." Xun You replied.
Gao Fei asked happily: "Have you selected all the horses purchased from Xianbei?"
"Everything has been selected. All the horses are tall and have strong weight-bearing capabilities. They can carry a weight of one to two hundred kilograms and run, but the speed is much slower."
Gao Fei nodded: "That's good, Gongda, you go to the treasury with Gao Lin now and pass on my order to Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, Xu Huang, Chen Dao, Wenpin, Chu Yan, Guan Hai, Zhou
Cangdu went to the school field to collect the armor. In addition, he took all the remaining armors to the garrison in various places in Youzhou.
In the army, the infantry all put on uniform battle armor, and the cavalry wore chainmail armor on the inside and fish scale armor on the outside. The whole army must be replaced, and those that have not been replaced are recorded. Wait for a new batch of battle armor to come out, and then proceed.
For replacement, Fan Yang and Tianjin will start the equipment replacement first."
"promise!"
After giving the instructions, Gao Fei personally rushed to the school grounds and selected 15,000 people. Ten thousand people were used as heavy infantry battalions, and the other 5,000 people were used as heavy cavalry battalions, and they were also formed into a chain horse formation. He also talked about the chain horse formation.
The fighting essentials and disciplines were taught to the soldiers, and the first team of chain horse formations was formed.
After changing the armor, Gao Fei specially recruited Chu Yan and Zhou Cang to take charge of the heavy cavalry battalion, and asked Chen Dao, Wenpin and Guan Hai to take charge of the heavy infantry battalion. From then on, they would train at the school grounds every day to adapt to the weight.
.Huang Zhong, Xu Huang, and Wei Yan led the rest of the infantry and cavalry to conduct drills.
On March 23, within half a month, several counties adjacent to Jicheng had completed replacing the first batch of soldiers' armor.
That day, Gao Fei was still watching a chain of horse formations composed of heavy cavalry chained together on the school grounds. Gao Lin ran over in a panic and said with joy on his face: "My lord, the military counselor asked my lord to return home quickly."
I went to my house and said I wanted to give my lord a surprise."
Gao Fei said: "This Jia Xu, I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd."
After returning to Yanhou Mansion, Gao Fei saw Zang Ba, Chang Xi, Yin Li, Wu Dun, Sun Guan, and Sun Kang sitting there as soon as he entered the hall. Only then did he understand what the surprise in Jia Xu's mouth meant.
As soon as Zang Ba saw Gao Fei walking in from outside dressed in casual clothes, he stood up quickly, cupped his fists and said, "Brother Yu, I didn't break my promise, did I?"
Gao Fei laughed and said: "Very good, we did not miss the appointment. You came just in time. Now the place officially needs people."
Jia Xu stood up now, walked to Gao Fei and bowed: "My lord, do you know General Zang?"
Gao Fei nodded and said nothing.
Zang Ba and others looked shocked and said in unison: "Are you the Marquis of Yan?"
Gao Fei laughed, walked slowly to the seat, and said to Zang Ba and others: "I didn't mean to deceive you, but under the circumstances, this was the only last resort."
Zang Ba hurriedly paid homage: "The benevolence and righteousness of Marquis Yan are beyond my comparison. We have come all the way here just to seek refuge with the Marquis and ask him to take him in."
Gao Fei said: "I have already said that as long as you come to vote, I will definitely welcome you."
