Datang Live Room
Chapter 180 In the Tang Dynasty, iron wire was a rare thing
This wire-drawing machine greatly reduces the difficulty of drawing wire. Even a weak man like Yan Kai can pull out several meters of wire in one day.
And it doesn’t require much skill, as long as you can use iron pliers to clamp the wire.
Yan Kai came down from the operating position and said with a smile: "It's good to get over it, but I will reward anyone who invents something useful."
"As we agreed at the beginning, every invention can have a rating. This machine can greatly speed up the manufacturing of mail armor. I think it is rated as Level B. Do you think there is a problem?"
When the craftsmen heard that Yan Kai rated this wire drawing machine as Grade B, their breathing became tight.
Because Yan Kai said at the beginning that the reward for Class A inventions is 100 strings, the reward for Class B inventions is 50 strings, the reward for Class C inventions is 20 strings, and the reward for Class D inventions is 10 strings.
And above level A, if it is really useful, the bonus will increase.
This time Yan Kai said it was Grade B, which meant that everyone could share the entire fifty thousand dollars equally!
"Magistrate Xiaoyan, isn't this a bit..." A craftsman said sheepishly: "Too much? We actually thought of it from your initial wire drawing machine and waterwheel."
"Not much, I think the more things like this, the better!" Yan Kai said with a smile: "So there is no need for you to refuse. This is what we agreed from the beginning. Don't let me become an untrustworthy person. ah!"
After hearing what Yan Kai said, these craftsmen gave up with happy faces.
With the iron wire, it is time to make mail armor. The workload of fifty people's armor is quite large.
Yan Kai simply called all Chun Yuzhen's subordinates.
When these people heard that they were going to make mail armor for themselves, they were all excited and said that they would do whatever Yan Kai asked.
You must know that things like iron armor were much more important in ancient wars than those magical weapons.
It is often seen that a certain general is in and out of the chaos, and it is definitely not because of his weapons, but because of his armor.
Because even the regular army is generally equipped with standard weapons such as long guns or long knives.
It is difficult for these weapons to cause much damage to high-level armor.
In game terms, it means it cannot break the defense.
A good armor is equivalent to many more lives in battle.
The craftsmanship of this mail armor is actually not complicated. Several people were assigned to pull the wire, and others were called to make small iron rings.
Specifically, the wire is wrapped around a mold of a fixed size, formed into a circle, and then cut to form small rings.
Then use a sledgehammer to flatten the ring into a whole.
Then start drilling holes at both ends of the ring.
Finally, use a small iron nail to drill through the holes and connect the two iron rings together.
Crush the small iron nail flat and the two rings will be connected together.
More hoops slowly formed into a piece of clothing, and it was considered complete.
Iron wire is now available everywhere, and a chainmail challenge was launched in the live broadcast room.
Everyone imitated Yan Kai's method in the live broadcast room and started making armor.
Anyway, modern times and ancient times are reversed. In modern times, there are regulations on knives, but there is no regulation on armors.
Ordinary people can't get weapons, but there's no problem getting a set of armor!
Of course, there are also some handicapped people who are begging Yan Kai if he can drive a small yellow car to sell such mail accessories. They can just complete the last step of the process themselves.
Yan Kai could only regret that it was not possible for the time being.
Soon, the mail armor in each Tang Jun's hand gradually took shape, and everyone's enthusiasm became even higher.
By the end of the first day, almost every Tang soldier had a mail piece the size of two or three palms in his hand.
According to this progress, it may take more than a month to complete a complete set of mail armor, but it only takes about ten days to make the piece that is worn in front of the body.
This kind of mail armor is composed of pieces. The piece in front of the body can already greatly improve the defense.
Some Tang Jun even said jokingly that they would never face the enemy with their backs.
For some extra wire, Yan Kai asked craftsmen to use wooden stakes to make a wire mesh.
Do not underestimate this kind of fortification which is now almost useless.
This thing is very useful under certain circumstances.
Once in Vietnam, Frankie used more than a hundred gunmen hiding behind barbed wire to directly kill more than 3,000 Vietnamese soldiers who were charging over.
Although these Tang troops under Yan Kai do not have guns, they do have crossbows!
As long as things like barbed wire can slow down the opponent's movement, they can harvest perfectly.
When he returned home to prepare for dinner, he saw that Yan Xiaoer was still learning medical skills from Sun Simiao. He went over and asked:
"Are Liuzi feeling better?"
After Li Anyan faked the scene at the beach to make it look like they were all killed in battle, Wei Zheng came here again.
However, all the corpses were burned, leaving only some tattered armor and weapons of the Tang army, and Yan Kai and the others insisted that they were all dead. Now that the weather was getting hotter and hotter, they could only burn them for fear of causing epidemics.
Wei Zheng actually believed most of them, because there were too many pirates, hundreds of them died, and dozens more were captured.
How many people do Li Anyan and the others have? If you are besieged, you really don't have much chance of survival.
They died resisting pirates. After returning to Chang'an, Li Shimin gave several of them honorary titles.
This matter can be considered settled.
Li Anyan and others also settled down in Kuoding County with peace of mind.
Yan Kai didn't care, because judging from the attitudes of Wei Zheng and Li Shimin, he really had no intention of pursuing these people. As long as they didn't make trouble or rebel, he would just let them go.
Keeping people like Li Anyan in Kuoding County has greatly enhanced the defense power of Kuoding County.
Before Yan Xiaoer could answer Yan Kai's question, he heard Liuzi's roar coming from inside the room:
"You guys, can you get out?"
Entering the room, when other people saw it was Yan Kai, they all respectfully shouted: "Xiaoyan County Magistrate."
Yan Kai not only saved Liu Zi, but also helped Li Anyan escape, which was a great favor in their eyes.
Yan Kai looked at the people in the room dumbfounded.
Li Anyan brought a lot of gold with him when he escaped, and gave a lot to Yan Kai.
Therefore, Yan Kai also arranged the meals for several people very well. At this time, several people in the room, including Li Anyan, were eating grilled ribs, braised chicken legs, etc. in front of Liuzi.
The sixth son was told by Sun Simiao not to be exposed to meat and fish for a few days, and to eat mainly light food.
These people were obviously here to covet him.
After smiling and chatting with a few people, Yan Kai called Li Anyan out.
"Can you do me a favor?"
"Say!" Li Anyan didn't even ask Yan Kai what he wanted from him.
"Can you help me find where Fourth Master Jin is?"
