252, Datang Three Knives (I)

The officers went down separately to train them, and then they should have started preparing for the military exercise that would be coming soon. And this military exercise is related to Jingwen's future, so Jingwen certainly attaches great importance to it. And even Jingwen paid out of his own pocket and bought a lot of meat for the soldiers, so that they could make up for their bodies. The standard equipment sent by the imperial court has been sent, and it is all ordinary equipment of the Tang Dynasty army, and there is no discrimination and no too much attention. This equipment is no more, no less, that is, the number of 2,000 people, because the number of people participating in the military exercise is 2,000. As for the risks, Li Shimin is not worried about what 2,000 people can do. Two thousand people, compared to the hundreds of thousands of troops in the Tang Dynasty, is not enough!

"Ha-ha-ha!" That Jiang Xiong took those Mo knives and began to train, and suddenly burst into bursts of shouting.

And when the other guys saw these strange knives, they were all envious, jealous and hateful. Because this Mo knife was designed by Jingwen, and it is very imposing to use. And the Tang Dynasty standard saber in his hand is nothing unusual. This is just an ordinary straight knife, not a distinctive knife.

"Feng Yong, how about you say that we should also go to the adults to help us design a good knife? This Mo Dao watched them show off there, and we weren't happy either! Zhu Dan said.

Zhu Dan immediately said: "Since this is the case, then it's okay!" Let's take a look and ask the adults to help us design a knife that looks imposing. ”

Soon, they all found Jingwen.

"My lord, can you help us design a good knife?" Feng Yong asked.

"Let me design? Don't you have a standard saber from the imperial court? Jingwen asked rhetorically.

And Feng Yong immediately said: "Those guys are so annoying, they actually took out the Mo knife given by the adult to show off there all day long." That Mo knife has momentum, we all want it. However, the Mo knife must be very powerful to be able to use it, so we wanted adults to help us design a knife that would be lighter and look okay. ”

"Don't you use horizontal knives? That is one of the four knives of the Tang Dynasty, which means sweeping the world! Jingwen asked.

"Phew, what's sweeping the world? It's just a straight knife, and it's not remarkable? Feng Yong said.

Jingwen couldn't help but speculate. Hasn't the horizontal knife been invented yet? However, perhaps the four knives of the Tang Dynasty were not invented at the same time. Mo knives have not been invented now, so other knives should not have been invented either. That is to say, the living scene can be used to take the doctrine.

"If I take Datang's four knives directly, then I'm too unskilled, right? Since it's all plagiarized, then I'll just copy it more advanced and get it in one step. Jingwen thought secretly.

Jingwen said: "In that case, then I will also help the infantry design a short knife!" ”

"My lord, our cavalry also needs new swords!" Zhang Dong, a company commander of the cavalry company, said.

Jingwen immediately asked; "Didn't you cavalrymen use swords?"

But Zhang Dong said: "Our cavalry does not use knives, our cavalry uses horse lances. It is very difficult to use the horse lance and want to train well. That's probably going to take years. And we also want to switch to knives, which makes it much easier to train. Although the lance is powerful, it takes too long. ”

Jingwen didn't expect that the cavalry of this era actually used horse lances. Ma Lance Jingwen also understood, that was the predecessor of the spear. However, there is a saying in ancient times, called the moon stick year knife for a lifetime gun, which can show that spear training is very difficult. And the horse lance is more difficult than the spear, and the spear is really just a simplified version of the horse lance. If you want to practice horse lance, you have to start building the foundation from a young age. Otherwise, the results will be very low in the future. Therefore, those who can learn the horse lance are also from a military family. And the cost of a horse lance is also very high, and the vast majority of people cannot afford it. Even. A good lance is capable of being used for generations. This is a good thing for collectors. At the beginning, for a country, if the equipment of the army is so expensive, then I am afraid that the head of the household will vomit blood.

So. Later generations of lancers were gradually eliminated and finally switched to the use of sabers. The saber can have both assassination and slashing functions. And none of them have degraded too little, to be able to balance the two. This also makes the saber more versatile, more flexible on the horse, and less expensive to train. On the whole, the saber is better than the lance, at least for the army of a country. So fewer and fewer people used horse lance, and finally it was phased out. However, the Tang Dynasty still used horse lances, and Jingwen was now going to start using sabers.

"Okay, I'll design one more cavalry knife too." Jingwen said.

Everyone was satisfied, and Jingwen began to open his mind and find a way to "design" a good knife. And Jingwen was also a military fan in his previous life, so he knew something about many military weapons. He carefully thought about several cold weapons of later generations, and finally chose two.

These two models were the 65 cavalry knives of later generations, that is, the last cavalry knives in China. This knife is modeled after the Japanese three-two style cavalry knife, but it is better to use than the three-two style cavalry knife. And after historical development, it is already the pinnacle of the cavalry sword. This cavalry knife is much better than the ancient saber, because history is developing, and things are becoming more and more advanced. Jingwen suddenly brought this advanced thing. Anyway, it's a cold weapon, it's just a matter of design ideas, and there is no disciplinary fault line in the industry.

As for the infantry knife, Jingwen adopted the Mad Dog tactical assault knife of the later US army. This kind of knife has a more reasonable design, rich functions, and is in line with the principle of ergonomics, and it is much easier to use than ancient knives. However, the only drawback is that it was not possible to use so much alloy steel in ancient times, and it was only better in design, but it could not meet the standards of the Mad Dog Tactical Assault Knife in terms of materials. Therefore, strictly speaking, the mad dog tactical assault knife that will be forged in the Tang Dynasty in the future will definitely be much worse than that of later generations.

"Go and call the man who used to be a blacksmith, and I'm going to build a weapon!" Jingwen said.

Soon, the blacksmith made these two knives. However, compared to the two knives of later generations, in fact, they are only in form, but they have no practical effect. If you really encounter the original version of the later generations, I am afraid that it will not be able to withstand the chopping of the later generations at all, and it will definitely be broken.

"Hey, I have to run back and dedicate this thing to the emperor, I'm really going to become a 'run'. I really don't know how I will be described in the future, Jingwen 'Jing Run Run'? Jingwen complained psychologically. (To be continued......)
