Chen Mu's military uniform restructuring did not directly choose modern or modern military uniforms, which is indeed good-looking, but it is out of place, and it doesn't matter how the Han general, who is the mascot in the palace, wants to wear it, but the sergeants who go out to guard and release horses are first and foremost protective and practical.

What's more, Daming's clothes and armor are already very good-looking.

The new military uniform also consisted of armor, and the outer garment was a half-length smock to the thigh, with a slim waist and ribs, angularized shoulders, and large sleeves; The trousers are tapered from the hips and legs downwards to facilitate movement, and the sleeves and trouser legs are equipped with cuff straps and row straps. The Yellow River and the Yangtze River are divided into three categories, the fabrics north of the Yellow River are mainly thick and cold-proof, and the fabrics south of the Yangtze River are mainly light and breathable.

Chen Mu did not point fingers at the armor of the Northern Army, he only took care of the armor of the Southern Army, the armor skirt is also two petals and calves, and the shape is composed of a chain, a piercing armor and a cotton armor with built-in iron sheets.

It is now in the form of a harness, with four straps on the left and right chests and four on the back, and are hung on the shoulders with thick cloth pads.

Qi Jiguang pointed to the picture and asked, "What does this mean?" ”

The Ming Dynasty armor sometimes has a metaphor, the literati like this set of things, and the generals also like it, for example, the useless over-the-shoulder robe, which means both civil and military, and Chen Lan, who is obviously a big old man, likes that kind of robe the most.

"In the past, the armor skirt was draped with two cloth belts, one on the right shoulder and one on the left rib, and then the waist and belly were hugged to bear the weight of the armor skirt, five or six pounds of chain mail, and seven or eight pounds of armor, which was not light. Chen Mu explained to Qi Jiguang with a smile, took out another one from the pile of papers on the table, gently pushed it to Qi Jiguang, and gestured with both hands on his shoulders: "Now it's changed to this, the weight is shared by both shoulders, three or four catties on one side, which can be much lighter." ”

Qi Jiguang glared, smiled dumbly, and said in surprise: "Can it still be counted like this?" ”

"Really, I'm lazy, just think of a way from this aspect, Qi Shuai can try, one hand to carry a weapon and two hands to carry a weapon, the feeling is definitely different, and the same is true for the shoulder!"

On the second picture he pushed over, a slightly shorter armor skirt was drawn, which was three inches above the knee, two inches shorter than most armor skirts, but for the sake of beauty, the cloth skirt under the armor was still half over the calf, he said: "Of course, I prefer this kind of armor skirt, the flag army's calves wear iron neck guards, so there is no need for armor skirt protection, a little shorter can be one and a half pounds lighter, and the two shoulders are only three pounds, which can make the sergeant much more comfortable." ”

Qi Jiguang slowly bowed his head, he had formulated military laws, uniforms, military salutes, and banners for the Qi family's army, and he was familiar with Chen Mu doing these things, and it did sound like what Chen Mu said, it was not difficult to understand, and he looked at the upper armor one by one curiously.

The upper body armor is still the old configuration of the Nanyang Military Banner Army, the inner chain mail and the outer breastplate, and the small arm end of the arm binding is directly wrapped around the cuff, and the round-neck cuirass just exposes the traditional standing collar of the Ming Dynasty.

The helmet has been changed greatly, as Tan Lun said, if the hair of the flag army becomes shorter, the hood that appeared in the past for the towering bun will not be suitable, Shao Tingda was burned into a bald head and put on several pairs of net towels or complained that the hood grinds his brain.

Chen Mu chose to modify the helmet to be lower, not to use the towering bullet-shaped pointed round helmet in the past, and to cover the side of the ear with a curtain to protect the back of the head and neck.

The biggest change may be the belt, the same wider strap is divided into two at the chin to wrap the chin, which is stronger than a simple strap - in the past, such a strap could not be used, because the Ming army had a strong habit of growing beards, and it was not like ordinary people who did not have cheeks and beards, but mortals to middle-aged sergeants and officers were all bearded and could not be tied at all.

Only in the middle of the cuirass is that there is a slot in the armor that serves as a protective neck, and the attached picture means the place to which the sergeant belongs, what battalion, what official position, and name are.

Qi Jiguang has nothing to say, he thinks that these things are not bad except for the cost of money, the elite flag army is more important than silver, and those who can recruit those who are used to fighting, as long as the country can afford it, it is not too much to spend on the armor.

Chen Mu doesn't need to have these worries at all, the Nanyang Military Government spends its own money, as long as he dares to think about it, he must be able to afford it, as long as you don't cause trouble to the household department, who cares what you let your subordinates wear?

These things are used in the Nanyang Army, that is Chen Mu's own power, unless he lets his subordinates go to the battlefield barefoot, the armor shape does not matter, he Jizhen sergeant and someone wears the armor of the barbarian cavalry - Chen Mu is too weird, some useless things, too cautious; But there are big things, and the courage is terrible.

Tan Lun, the secretary of the military department, didn't look at the armor patterns at all, and he knew that Qi Jiguang was better at it than him, he had been holding Chen Mu's military hairstyle and beard to look at it, and after Qi Jiguang slowly bowed his head after reading the armor and military mansion, Lao Shangshu said to Chen Mu: "Chen Shuai's hairstyles look fierce and fierce, the old man thought that he should be able to pass the imperial court, but ......"

Those pictures must be prestigious, Chen Mu said this to Xu Wei, who had just entered Beijing after the successful peace negotiations in Nanjing, and the requirement was to let him find a beautiful man who best met the aesthetics of the Ming people to make the sergeant's face, and the painting method of the hairstyle also required that it must be beautiful.

Design is a great job, simple and good-looking design can save people a lot of things, just like now, Tan Lun knows what Chen Mu is thinking in his mind.

It's not as ugly as the old man thought! ’

Hearing Tan Lun say nothing, Chen Mu listened and said, "Please also show the boss." ”

"This was brought to the court, with the permission of the Ministry of War, and it was for the sake of the war that the flag army would not get sick, but it was also legitimate, and it was not difficult to pass the ticket, but the old man still suggested that it should not be forced, and this could not be made into a decree, only the flag army should be allowed to be voluntary. Chen Shuai said earlier that he wanted to negotiate military law with the two of us, for the sake of this? ”

"No, it's not this, it's so hot when I go abroad, Chen is also thinking about the flag army, if they don't want to cut their hair, I naturally won't force it." Chen Mu waved his hand and said to the two: "The military law I want to talk about is the most important thing, haven't you two found out that I don't have military law in the Ming Dynasty?" ”

"Chen knows that there are military orders in the Daming Order, there is military law in the Daming Law, Tan Gong's generals have Tan Gong's military law, Chen's Nanyang Army has Nanyang Military Law, Qi Shuai's Qi family army has Qi's military law, and even Xiao'er Balang has used Qi Shuai's military law to get a set of rules for restraining the army."

Chen Mu spread his hands, and then raised his left hand to gesture above his head, and said: "But that is not from the entire Ming Dynasty as a rule of military law, I suggest that the Lord of the Ministry think about this matter, the soldiers who have the law in the world are strong, and the soldiers who cannot are weak. ”

"Today's car formation is prosperous, and the car camp is being practiced everywhere in northern Xinjiang, and it is not arrogant to say that the car camp is not good, but the car camp is very good. Many generals found that the soldiers ran when they encountered the enemy, so that they were defeated, and the car battalion came into being, enclosing the soldiers in it, and they could only fight if they could not escape, not to mention that my car formation today is not like the ancient mobile city wall, carrying artillery birds, and now the car formation is a mobile battery, and you can hit wherever you go. ”

"But Tan Gong Qi Shuai has ever thought that now my artillery is prosperous, the vehicle array is dense, and I have the skill to resist the enemy; What if the enemy also had artillery in the future? The large army formation may not conform to the time of day, like General Zhenshuo, the heavy artillery is lined up a hundred zhang away, pouring fire, the iron projectile bounces a hundred steps, the dense army formation will be killed and wounded, only a burst of artillery, the army formation is in ashes. ”

"The original intention of Shuwu is to strengthen the military, and the world's Shuwu is the first to recommend Qi Shuai, the best policy, and promote the whole country with the actual record of military training, but there are many resistances; In the middle policy, the north and south will teach the military law of the martial arts, and when they go to various places as generals, they will use this as the military law; The next strategy is to go to the town of Ji and go down to the South Seas to slow down the situation. ”
