Time travel rebellion, I'm serious

On this day, many things happened in the station, the most important of which was that Lu Shu, Lu Yulin and Shi Deshou were called to the office by Liu Wu for a small meeting.

In this small house, everyone looked at Ouyang Sheng in front of them, who was wearing fish scale armor and holding a knife in his hand. He looked majestic, and the three of them suddenly felt shocked.

There was no one in private at this time, so the three of them called Liu Wu their eldest brother.

"Brother, why did you call us here in such a hurry? But it has something to do with Kefeng wearing heavy armor!"

The person who asked the question was Lu Yulin. As one of the main leaders in the army, she had already been awarded the position of captain and led the first battalion.

It's just that his battalion only has one full brigade.

But in contrast, he was also a military sacrificial wine in the Han army. He led the army in wartime and was in charge of the management of the army in his spare time.

Therefore, he had a very unique vision. After he came in and noticed that Ouyang Sheng was wearing armor, he understood the purpose of Liu Wu's call for them.

But he didn't know exactly what Liu Wu was thinking. But what is certain is that the strength of the military will be strengthened.

However, Lu Shu and Shi Deshou were different from Lu Yulin at this time. After all, they were in charge of internal affairs. As soon as they saw the fish scale armor, they understood that the steel required to make this armor was enough to supply agricultural tools for a military camp.

As for the other one, which was managing information trade, what he was thinking about was another matter. That is, if this kind of armor is used for dressing up, it will be difficult to maintain the benefits gained from the salt.

Regarding this, Liu Wu didn't care what they were thinking, but pointed at the armor and said:

"I called you here today to discuss this matter of armor and Mo Dao."

Immediately, Liu Wu signaled Ouyang Sheng to explain the power of the armor and Mo Dao to the three of them.

When the three of them heard that this armor and the Mo Dao could shatter men and horses in Ouyang Sheng's hands and defeat thousands of armies, they couldn't help but be amazed.

Of course, the eyes of several people were very vicious, and they were not dazzled by this power. Instead, they asked cautiously:

"Brother, this armored knife is so powerful, it must have various limitations and disadvantages, right?"

Liu Wu nodded without surprise, and then softly explained the limitations and disadvantages of this armor.

Lu Shu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the person wearing this armor needed to practice his internal strength. This means that the cost of arming such a show is greatly reduced.

Shi Deshou breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that wearing this armor required height and weight restrictions. Because of this standard, coupled with the need to practice and develop internal strength, it means that this armor cannot be crafted at all and cannot arm many people.

However, the restrictions mentioned by Liu Wu did make Lu Yulin sigh in her heart. It’s a pity that such a powerful weapon cannot be widely equipped.

However, when Liu Wu told the shortcomings of this armor, the three of them immediately became excited again.

Because the disadvantage of this set of armor is that it is too heavy and troublesome to wear, such a soldier needs three auxiliary soldiers to carry the armor and various items for him. This means that to form such an army, maintaining their combat effectiveness requires more than three times the manpower and material resources.

At the same time, if there is a big battle, because the armor is thick and easy to remove, it will cause innocent casualties, which also means that this weapon is not too reliable.

Especially in the south of Daqian, this armor is simply worthless.

Therefore, everyone couldn't help but shook their heads.

It's not that this weapon isn't good, it's that it's great. Fortunately, it is difficult for armor to be of much use in the south. Its real use is north of the river. It is aimed at those cavalry who come and go freely and are used to flying kites or attacking fortresses, or those Rakshasa barbarians!

But the bad thing is that they are south of the river and the weather is hot. If one were to fight wearing this armor, he would probably faint from heatstroke before the battle was over.

Therefore, the three of them looked at Liu Wu with puzzled expressions.

The meaning is very simple. Does this kind of tasteless thing need to be specially shown to us?

In response, Liu Wu shook his head and said: "I called you here to let you determine how to use this armor."

"At the same time, how to cultivate talents who can develop internal strength. After all, we cannot always be south of the river. Our real purpose is to be a Rakshasa barbarian and for the people of the world. So since this kind of weapon has been developed, we must pay attention to it. .”

"Not only that, I'm also thinking about how we can develop craftsman talents and strive to improve weapons and equipment without affecting people's livelihood. How to ensure the rational use of resources and avoid waste as much as possible."

"More importantly, I need you to estimate how much it costs to make this armor today?"

Regarding Liu Wu's request, several people immediately understood what Liu Wu meant by handing them over.

To put it simply, it is to set a long-term goal and then set a small goal that can be achieved step by step. The purpose is to remind them that they must not slack off in their thinking.

Of course, there are many trivial matters such as material allocation, which need to be agreed in advance before implementation.

I only heard Lu Yulin say: "Brother said it very well. I think the problem is indeed one-sided. I think about this armor carefully. It is most effective in breaking formations and attacking cities."

"If you are fighting in the field with the enemy and there is an army like this, choose strong generals and attack when the two sides are in a stalemate. You will definitely be able to break the stalemate and pass through the local military formation."

"Not only that, if you are attacking a city, you can easily gain a foothold on the city wall with the help of siege vehicles and siege ladders, and then take the opportunity to expand your results and conquer the city in one fell swoop."

"Of course, if the big army is defeated, and there is such an army, and such an army is placed at a narrow pass, it can be said that one man can guard the pass, and no one can open it."

Lu Yulin always said so much, but most of them were tactical. No matter how fanciful they were, such an army could not hold a strategic position south of the river.

Therefore, Lu Shu also agreed: "Now that we have increased the food supply to the army, I think we will also increase education and practice martial arts, and strive to allow as many soldiers as possible to develop internal strength. Even if You can have a strong body without training.”

Shi Deshou answered Liu Wu's question about this armor. He used the specific data of this armor, checked Liu Wu's investigation report, and then based on his own data records about the Ordnance Institute, he immediately said:

"The materials and production cost of this armor require at least 28 taels of silver, and the maximum will not exceed 30 taels."

"However, these are estimates based on world prices. In fact, the price of making fish scale armor should be 50 taels."

"Although the Daqian court's ban on armor and bows and arrows is now like shit, it is still there after all, and there are still certain restrictions. Therefore, if this set of armor is made by the private sector, the price is really hard to say."

"But what is certain is that if a set of fish scale armor is sold secretly, it will not cost less than 200 taels of silver."

"And this is just fish scale armor made of wrought iron. Armor like ours is all made of steel..."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, too extravagant."

"So in the world, this set of armor is really expensive. It can even be said to be priceless. Its value is no less than ten thousand taels of silver."

Liu Wu was very surprised and asked, "Is this an exaggeration?"

Shi Deshou shook his head and said: "It's not an exaggeration. Let me just say that your sword, brother, is considered a good weapon whether it is on the market or in the world, and its value will not be less than 200 taels."

"And if there is armor made of this kind of steel, isn't it a treasure?"

Liu Wu couldn't help but open his mouth. His sword was so valuable?
