Chapter 581: They are all real iron armor instead of iron skin (second update)

Chapter 590

Chong Shidao enthusiastically entertained Liang Shou and Liang Zuo for a good meal.After that, they sent someone to take them to rest.

"Tomorrow, my Great Song Dynasty and soldiers and horses will arrive here. At that time, if the two nephews have time, they can go to the barracks with Chong. By the way, there will be two adults coming tomorrow. I will definitely be willing to meet you." After Zhong Shidao got up and sent the two of them down the steps, he asked a special question.

"That's naturally good. Liang also wants to see the heroic appearance of the general's tiger." Liang Shou's heart moved, and he replied with a very interested look on the surface.

The two came to the guest room to stay. The two brothers lived in the same room, but although the two were exhausted, they didn't feel much sleepiness. After washing, they sat next to the brazier, drank hot tea, and communicated in a low voice.

"Teacher Zhong Dao has come in person, which represents a kind of sincerity. There will be two adults tomorrow, but I don't know who it is..."

"Could it be that Master Su?"

"Probably not. There are two Deputy Envoys of Shaanxi Road Economics and Appeasement, and it is very likely that one will come tomorrow." Liang Shou stroked his short beard and guessed.

"That kind of teacher asked us to visit the Song Army, I'm afraid it wants to give us a disgrace."

"Why, are you scared? Our Xixia soldiers and horses are unrivaled in the world. If it weren't for the poisonous trick used by the Song people, our [-]-strong army would have been wiped out." Liang Shou glared at his party brother in annoyance.

Liang Zuo shrank his neck and smiled awkwardly. "It makes sense. When it comes to field battles, my Western Xia warriors are indeed second to none. The Song army was able to win only because of the strong walls of the city."

"No matter what, don't disgrace our Western Xia Liang family tomorrow, you know?" Liang Shou told Liang Zuo sternly.

"Cousin, don't worry, little brother, I am not a coward." Liang Zuo nodded vigorously, and replied confidently. After all, he is not someone who has never seen the world, and he is walking on the edge of life and death. A lap of excellent fighters.

However, after breakfast the next day, in the torment and restlessness, he waited until noon, when Master Zhong came to the door and called the two to go with him.

The Liang brothers followed Zhong Shidao to the barracks outside the city with a trace of exploration and curiosity. Only then did they arrive at the gate of the barracks, and they could already hear the rumble of hooves coming from the south.

The breeder Dao Le stopped his horse and waited for the team to arrive.When this army appeared in sight wrapped in the cloud of smoke and dust, both Liang Shou and Liang Zuo couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This is a cavalryman, a cavalryman with plate-like iron armor shining brightly and shining with silver light, coming slowly, and the teacher who is beside him proudly introduces to these two with a loud voice.

"You two, General Liang, must have seen this kind of armor. This is a standard armor that I, the Song Dynasty, just developed this year. It is also called Yuanyou Armor. Its defensive power and sturdiness are no better than yours in Xixia." The warts are inferior."

Liang Shou's pupils shrank involuntarily, and after a while, he tried his best to speak in a calm voice. "General Chong, Liang has indeed seen this kind of iron armor before at Huanzhou City. However, since this kind of iron armor is so strong, it must be extremely expensive, labor-intensive and time-consuming, right?"

"It takes thirty experienced craftsmen a year to make my cold-forged wart armor from Xixia. But you actually told me, General Zhong, that this Yuanyou armor of your Great Song Dynasty was born this year?" developed it?"

"Why, do you think Chong is deliberately exaggerating?" Zhong Shidao turned his head and looked at the two Xixia generals with disbelief written all over their faces.

"Since it was only developed this year, how could there be so many of them? I'm afraid there are at least ten thousand cavalrymen wearing this Yuanyou Armor, right?" Liang Zuo said with a toothache.

"The key here is my Great Song's secret. Naturally, I can't tell the two of you. However, if the two of you become the pillars of my Great Song in the future, you may have a chance to know. In addition, it won't be long before my Da Song Frontier soldiers from all over the Song Dynasty will be equipped with such high-quality armor."

Is cultivating a teacher just bragging?As a famous and outstanding general in the northwest frontier army of the Song Dynasty, I have never heard of him having a hobby of bragging.

However, what he said is really too unimaginable. However, Yuanyou Jiaqi, who is almost blinded by the reflected sunlight, is so eye-catching. It made Liang Shou and Liang Zuo feel even more depressed.

"Cousin, the last time I saw this kind of iron armor was when I was captured near Hongde Village. At that time, there were only five thousand at most..."

"Today, the amount has doubled. Could it be a fake?" Liang Zuo lowered his voice and whispered to his cousin who was nearly ten years older than him.

"It can't be fake. You can tell by looking at its sitting posture and the gait and hoof prints of the mount. It's real iron armor, not just fake iron." Liang Shou's eyes almost narrowed into two slits. , mainly because the sunlight reflected by this kind of armor is too dazzling.

But there was a storm in his heart, even if it was a kind of teacher's way of bragging, so what?Just the appearance of the 1 yuan Youjiaqi here is enough to make Xixia terrified when his strength is still intact.

What's more, the cavalry of the Noli family had confronted this kind of Yuanyou Jiaqi head-on before, and the result was that the Noli family was defeated again and again.

Even if the cavalry of the Ye Li family is not the heavy armored cavalry iron kite that Xixia is most proud of, even if the quality of the armor worn by the cavalry of the Ye Li family is not so good.

These are not important. The important thing is that there were only five thousand before, and now Da Song has come up with ten thousand, which is enough to show the terrifying strength of the country of Da Song.

"My Xixia population is only 300 million, but I need to support 50 troops, and the population of Shanxi Road in the Song Dynasty is 300 million in the Jingzhaofu area alone. It only needs the power of Shaanxi Road to compete. I am a country in Xixia."

"In the past, I always felt that it was exaggerated, but now I feel that it was the Song Dynasty in the past, and it didn't really regard me, Xixia, as an enemy..." Liang Shou looked a little frustrated.

Especially after seeing that Yuanyou armored cavalry enter the barracks, there are almost ten thousand cavalry equipped with Xixia wart armor behind it, and tens of thousands of Song Dynasty soldiers carrying the Yuanyou crossbow with shining silver light on their shoulders. The soldiers and horses looked more and more sad.

Just this Song army who just arrived here is probably enough to compete with the power of Xixia.

"General Zhong, have you never seen this kind of crossbow before? Even when Xixia attacked Suide City, you have never seen such a powerful crossbow." Liang Shou gently stroked the mount under him, and moved towards Zhong Shidao asked.

Master Zhong stroked his long beard and answered casually. "This kind of crossbow was also developed this year by our Song Dynasty. It is called Yuanyou Crossbow. Its strength and durability are far superior to the divine arm crossbows that our Song Dynasty used in the past."
