Chapter 22 Aristocratic Caravan Anvi Miya [36] [Please Collect And Ask For Flowers! 】
[ps: The picture above shows the heavy armor of Common soldiers]
In my world map.
Don Juan was busy in front of the smelting furnace.
At the moment Don Juan is making a mold.
According to the plate breastplate synthesized by the workbench, it is continuously fired and cast, and the mold is made.
Finally, the hard work was effortless, and the mold of the plate breastplate was made by Don Juan.
Don Juan was still worried about the strong protective, light and flexible full-body plate armor.
I want to forge the plate armor and equip it to the soldiers in Xieyue Town to increase their combat capabilities.
But in the process, Don Juan discovered a huge problem!
And the discovery of this problem made Tang Juan feel that he might have discovered the reason why ancient China hadn't developed plate armor for so many years.
The mold of the plate breastplate is okay, but it is extremely difficult to make a full-body plate armor.
First of all, there is one point, that is, the various parts of the full-body plate armor.
The full-body plate armor does not only have a few parts, the full-body plate armor really covers the whole body.
Basically, it can be said to be very tight, with basically no gaps.
The whole body plate armor weighs less than thirty catties.
It is about 20 catties lighter than the heavy armor made by Don Juan.
This is the advantage of full body plate armor.
In terms of strength, the defense is basically the same as that of heavy armor, but the full plate armor is lighter, more flexible, and more comprehensive in protecting the body.
But this does not mean that the full body plate armor is an advanced representative.
Don Juan discovered that the appearance of full-body plate armor was a sign of backwardness!
This backwardness is institutional backwardness!
For a long time until modern times, the West has had a feudal Constitution (feudal aristocrats). This feudal era has long been broken by the unified Great Qin Empire in China.
As a result, ancient China changed from feudalism to a centralized imperial system.
The whole body plate armor is just a product of the feudal backward system.
None of the armies in ancient China was huge, with hundreds of thousands of people at every turn.
And so many armies need armor.
Then the modularization, mass production, and unification of armor manufacturing have been facilitated in this way.
Armor is something that can be mass-produced.
But the full-body plate armor is different. The full-body plate armor is specially customized by Western nobles to find craftsmen, and there are strict requirements for body proportions.
Even if you gain weight after a period of time, you won't be able to wear this full-body plate armor, and it will be useless.
Moreover, the damage and maintenance of the whole body plate armor is also a problem, such as the plate breastplate, which is integrated.
If a dent is smashed out, it will take a lot of time and high-tech craftsmen go to special repairs, and once it is punctured and a hole is punched, oh well, then this part is completely useless and cannot be repaired.
However, the armor is unreasonable. The armor is made of a large number of nail leaves connected in series. The armor is broken? It's okay to change the nail leaves.
The rope connecting the nail leaves is broken? Change the rope and restring.
It is even possible to break up a few pieces of armor that were completely damaged, and then piece them together to form another complete armor!
Can full plate armor do this?
Totally impossible.
If the key parts on the full-body plate armor are deformed, it will affect the entire armor.
People have different heights, shorts, fats, and thins. If a full-body plate armor is produced according to one standard, not to mention the huge amount of money it will cost, it is very likely that most of the soldiers in the plate armor produced according to one standard may be fat or thin. I can't wear it at all.
But Zhajia is different. Zhajia is worn on the body.
As long as the height of the soldiers is not 1.5 meters and 3 meters, then they can all be equipped.
Even if there is a difference of 1.5 meters in height and 3 meters in height, some armor parts can be worn to protect important parts.
Can plate armor do this?
It's impossible to think about it with your toes.
Thinking of this, Don Juan put down the tool hammer in his hand, and threw the plate breastplate he had just built into the system space casually.
Modularization, standardization, mass production, cheap, easy to use, and cost-effective equipment are truly practical.
Plate? Want massive equipment for Common soldiers? Just play with eggs, it's impossible.
Or their own heavy armor incense.
After figuring out this problem, Don Juan no longer struggled with the issue of plate armor or not.
Don Juan, who had just returned to the castle to take a sip of tea, heard some noise outside.
"what's the situation?"
Don Juan changed into Common clothes and walked out of the castle.
"My lord, there is a caravan coming from Xieyue Town."
As soon as I walked out of the castle, I ran into Harlaus head-on.
"A caravan coming?"
"Take me to see."
Don Juan's curiosity was aroused.
Now that winter is coming, it will become difficult for caravans to travel after winter, and next spring will be the year of demon disaster, when the wilderness will become extremely dangerous.
At this time, there are still caravans who dare to come.
"It seems to be some unscrupulous businessmen who want to make a last profit."
Don Juan thought to himself.
Walking out of the town, Don Juan saw the caravan parked at the gate of the town.
There are about a dozen carriages pulling goods.
The entire caravan, including the guards, has a total of nearly two hundred people.
It was the leader of the caravan that attracted Don Juan's attention.
It was a girl who looked less than twenty years old.
Beautiful, beautiful Red's long hair is tied into a refreshing single ponytail.
The most important thing is the girl's height.
"You are the lord and nobleman of Xieyue Town. Let me introduce myself. My name is Anvimiya, and I am the leader of this caravan."
Anvimiya stood in front of Don Juan, not much shorter than Don Juan.
Don Juan is 1.87 meters tall.
The Anwei Miya in front of her was at least 1.8 meters tall.
Even the average height of a man in this era is only 1.7 meters.
Moreover, this Anvi Miya has an extraordinary temperament, and she looks like a nobleman in every gesture.
Don Juan immediately became vigilant.
Is it a coincidence that a caravan formed by a noble came to Xieyue Town at this time?
Or Count Bergenrath's ruse?
Even though Don Juan felt that this possibility was very low, the all-time caution still made Don Juan a little wary.
"I'm Don Juan, the Lord Baron of Slanting Moon Town."
Don Juan nodded slightly to Anvimiya, keeping a safe distance.
