Chapter 669: Forging Black Armor
In the battle of the Liaohe River, more than 3,000 enemies were killed, more than 6,000 enemies were captured, and countless horses and various materials were captured. The Five-Star Army itself only suffered less than 100 casualties, and in the cold weapon period of war horse collision, it can already be called an absolute victory.
Troops and prisoners of war entered the barracks, including Xu Yunsheng's department. Yela was still unconscious after being hit by the tranquilizer gun, but his horse had recovered as before, and he was led in front of Yang Chendong at this moment.
"Oh? This armor is good. Looking at the war horse suit that completely wrapped the war horse, Yang Chendong became interested.
"Yes, Sixth Young Master, this armor is indeed very powerful, and it is difficult for ordinary bullets to play any role when they hit it." Xu Yunsheng stood aside and described the situation on the battlefield in detail.
Yang Chendong, who was listening, kept nodding his head, his face thoughtful, "Come on, invite Wu Huo over." ”
Wu Huo, a blacksmith who is good at building horse shoes, or iron armor equipment on war horses, came to Yang Chendong. As soon as he came here, without waiting for others to ask him, he walked to the iron-clad war horse, first looked carefully, and then touched it with his hand, his face flashed with excitement, like a young man seeing a beautiful girl, and he couldn't put it down.
"Okay, I've seen it, I've touched it, let's talk about it, can you create such a war horse iron suit?" Yang Chendong rode on the white dragon horse and smiled.
"Yes. But there are a lot of materials needed, and this kind of iron is not ordinary iron, but has been tempered thousands of times, so to speak, it is good to have five catties of iron that can be used after a hundred catties of iron are polished, after all, it is necessary to take into account the reason for toughness and its own weight, that is not a single impurity. Wu Huo, who had already had an idea in his heart, turned around and clenched his fists and reported respectfully to Yang Chendong.
"Five percent? Well, that's exactly what you need. Yang Chendong also nodded in agreement. Xu Yunsheng said that the speed of the war horse did not mean that the speed of the war horse had dropped significantly because of this iron suit, which already showed the strength of this iron quality, which was also the point he valued the most.
Of course, this also shows that if you want to make such a war horse suit, you need a lot of iron materials, even with Yang Chendong's financial resources, it is possible to equip all the war horses with such a suit. Although the amount of steel prepared in the Red City has not been small under his request in the past few years, it is extremely much needed for arsenals and shipyards. Not to mention that when Yang Chendong left, there was a new factory, the tank factory, and the materials needed were even less. It is impossible to have the spare strength to support himself to build this war horse iron suit.
"It seems that everything needs to be figured out by itself. But the number of cavalry troops of tens of thousands is enough to make people sigh. Yang Chendong's idea of equipping all the war horses was stifled by him as soon as he raised it, and he knew that he had to do it, it was not firm, but a fool.
"In this way, take out all the iron objects we brought, Young Master Ben is trying to find a way to get some around, and equip a team of 100 people first, there should be no problem." Yang Chendong quickly made a decision and set his sights on Wu Huo. If it worked, he was going to equip his two guards first, so that his safety would be greater and he would not have to worry about the other officers wherever he went. (The number of the two guard teams has been expanded from the original 30 people per team to 50 people per team)
"As long as there are enough materials, I can take the blacksmiths to make this suit." Wu Huo was confident.
Interest is the best teacher, he has been learning to strike iron with his father since he was born, and now he has more than 30 years of experience, and there is no good thing to come out, not because his ability is not good, but because the conditions and environment do not allow it. But if there are enough materials, he will definitely make something no worse than anyone's.
"Okay, then it's decided, not only the iron horse suit, but also a set of invulnerable black armor over there, let's play them all together, hahaha." Yang Chendong laughed with satisfaction, and then touched the iron coat of the war horse with some nostalgia, with a look of sigh and longing.
In the camp, the soldiers had a hot and full meal, and everyone was in good spirits, and the battalion and company commanders also took the opportunity to start targeted training, giving them compensatory training according to the shortcomings of their performance on the battlefield in the previous World War, and striving to have a better performance in the next war.
The prisoners were gathered together and fed up. When they saw that there was meat in the dish, and the amount was still sufficient, they even ate it heartily, and for a while seemed to forget that they were already captives.
Yela and Liu Dai were also among them, and when they saw that their soldiers were not dead, they were still alive and devouring, and they also sighed in their hearts.
In order for the Jurchen people to have the ability to protect themselves in the future, although one of them is the head of a thousand households and the other is a deputy of a thousand households, they have indeed been poor over the years. All the money was spent on equipment and training, so much so that they rarely ate meat.
The people below have never complained, it's not that they don't have ideas, but they know that the hardships they are suffering now are so that the future clansmen can live a freer life. Now that he has become a captive, there is no future, so he just eats a good meal.
There was a tear in Yela's eyes, and he knew that he was sorry for the warriors too much. But at the same time, he was very happy in his heart, he thought that one by one brothers were killed on the horse in front of him, and he thought that the brothers were separated from each other, but he never thought that when he woke up, the brothers were there, at most they were only a little injured, and no one was killed in battle, which made him very happy at the same time, and he was also very curious about what kind of means the cavalry of the five-star army used and how they did it.
"Yela and Liu Dai, my young master wants to see you." Xu Yunsheng appeared in front of the prisoner camp with a pinch, and after seeing that the two of them had eaten enough and put down the dishes and chopsticks, he shouted out loud.
As soon as the voice fell, all the more than five hundred captives got up and stood, whether they were full or not, they all got up in unison at this moment, and then looked at Xu Yunsheng with a fierce gaze. Although they no longer have any weapons in their hands now, they still have two fists, two legs, and at the worst a mouthful of steel teeth, as long as they still have a breath, they will definitely not let anyone threaten the safety of the two generals. The collective performance of the Jurchen cavalry, in Xu Yunsheng's eyes, made him even more amazed in his heart, just from this point of view, it can be seen that the two generals should still be very loved by the soldiers below, isn't such a person exactly the talent that the sixth young master needs?
"Okay, I'm not going to ask you, I'm not going to kill you. Besides, I really want to kill you, do you think I can stop it? Although Xu Yunsheng was very optimistic about these Jurchen cavalry in his heart, his face was still very serious, before they surrendered to the Sixth Young Master's sect, these people were still his enemies.
Yela and Liu Dai heard the meaning of Xu Yunsheng's words, and after adding that they are now sending people away, can they really not go out if they can't think of it? annoys the other party, and it will only affect a group of subordinates.
"Okay, let's all sit down, I'll go out with Liu Qianhu." Yela knows that at this time, she is no longer in charge of her own affairs, or what if she doesn't want to? Besides, he also wanted to see who the general of the Five-Star Army was, and how could he train such a powerful cavalry as Xu Yunsheng.
With the two generals speaking, although the soldiers below still had some complaints, they were not good at saying anything, and they had to tell the general to be careful one by one, and watched the two people walk out of the prisoner camp. And on the way they followed Xu Yunsheng towards the main tent, Camp Chief Xu's voice whispered into the ears of the two, "When you see the young master later, please be respectful." Even if it's not for your own sake, but for the sake of your brothers and people, be careful with your words, or no one will be able to save you. ”
Although Xu Yunsheng knew that the Sixth Young Master loved talents, if he relied on his talents, he would be unruly, or even if he would be hurt by words, even if the Sixth Young Master was broad-minded and did not have the same knowledge as these people, who knew what Hu Mang and Yang Er would do. In front of a group of officers who regarded the Sixth Young Master as a god, anyone who dared to do something exciting would have very serious consequences.
Yela and Liu Dai were silent, that is, they did not say yes or no. They just honestly followed Xu Yunsheng step by step, in fact, only the two of them knew in their hearts that if the leader of the Five-Star Army did not have the ability, then they would never bow their heads.
This is the dignity of the strong, only the stronger can surrender them, otherwise, don't say that you are sincere, I am afraid that there will be other thoughts in my heart. It's just a matter of time before it happens.
At a distance of about two miles, Xu Yunsheng finally stopped and came to stand in front of a military tent that occupied a large area. As soon as she entered, Yera felt a murderous aura rippling around her.
Liu Dai was better, his perception was not as strong as Yela's, he just felt a little uncomfortable. Yela, on the other hand, felt like a lamb in the forest being targeted by a tiger, and he couldn't help but become very nervous.
About three hundred meters next to the military tent, Yang Chendong was watching Ye La and Liu Dai under the cover of another military tent. Seeing the latter looking down at the same time, he couldn't help but want to look around, the former really didn't even raise his head, just tensed up, as if his body would become a bow at any time, a picture of the strongest counterattack at any time.
