Black Iron Crown

Chapter 49 Designing Armor

The armor of the scale armor is slightly smaller, and the armor needed for the whole body is more, but it has a pretty good resistance to attacks such as chopping, but it is almost as good as chain armor when facing blunt objects. Any resistance, and there is a fatal shortcoming of the scale armor, that is, if faced with an attack from the bottom up, it is easy to cause the armor to flip up and affect the defense ability.

The other type of armor piercing is because the armor plate is much wider than the scale armor, and its defense ability against blunt weapons is also much stronger, and because the armor piercing needs to be fixed with double-layer ropes, there is no such fatal thing as the scale armor turning outward. defect.

The two have one thing in common, that is, they are both double-layer armor or even triple-layer armor created by superimposition, but they have a huge flaw, that is, they are too heavy.

If you don't have a strong body, you can't bear such a weight at all, but fortunately, Sergeant Rhodok... Sergeant Morland is all tall and strong elite soldiers, and they can still bear such a weight.

These two kinds of armor make it difficult for Lena to choose. The cost of scale armor is lower, but its defense ability against blunt weapons is insufficient. The cost of piercing armor is higher, and it consumes more iron materials, but it has a good defense ability against blunt weapons. It can be said that it almost complements the chain armor of the Moreland sergeants.

In the end, he chose to make full-body armor. It doesn’t matter if the cost is higher. If the soldiers die, the gain will not be worth the loss. Every soldier is exchanged by Leiner at a high price, and their value is far higher than a piece of armor. much.

In this way, he began to design armor drawings on the desk in the study room. In his previous life, as a person who liked real-time strategy games, he also did some research on armor, so he was able to shoot these armors by himself.

Holding a charcoal pencil in his hand, he wrote and drew on a piece of yellowed parchment. It took more than an hour for Reiner to complete the drawing.

This is a kind of iron armor similar to the Great Song stepman armor in Leiner's previous life, but he omitted some parts. It would be too heavy to copy all of it. In addition, the armor on Sergeant Merland's body is just for protection. The equipment weighed a terrifying 50 kilograms, which was not the weight he should bear on the battlefield. In the blueprint of the armor he designed, he didn't add too much armor on the chest, but simple full-body armor.

The armor that only covers the chest, arms, and legs is hung from the main body of the armor and connected together, which looks very aesthetic.

Looking at the blueprint, Leiner nodded in satisfaction, rolled up the parchment and walked out of the castle. He brought two followers to the blacksmith workshop in the castle.

The blacksmith workshop and the iron ore smelting workshop are separate. The iron ore smelting is outside the castle, near the iron ore, where is the smelting, and after the iron ore is made into iron materials, it will be sent to the warehouse in the castle. If the blacksmith needs it, he will get it himself.

Now more than 3,000 kilograms of iron materials have been piled up in the warehouse of Fort Moreland. This is the inventory of the former Moreland family. Although the value of gold coins generally does not fluctuate, steel and grain are still cheaper than gold. Stronger hard currency.

Gorburg also has a lot of iron ore stocks, and the combined storage of the two places can reach about 6,000 kilograms. Gorburg's iron ore output is relatively large, so even if a lot of it is sold, there is still a lot left. few.

In this way, Leiner led his followers into the blacksmith workshop. The blacksmiths were not idle at all, they were still weaving the whole body of chain armor or struggling to forge the thirty centimeter long spear head.

Sergeant Morland did not carry spears when they were summoned. Most of the time, they were guarding the castle, holding machetes or long swords as guards of honor. I have to say that the lords of the Rhodok Kingdom were really reckless. , Sergeants with such a strong combat power are used to guard the castle.

Leiner would not do such a thing, he wanted to let these terrorist soldiers who had come down from the battlefield return to their own battlefield.

Therefore, it has become inevitable that excellent spears will be remade. He intends to let the Morand sergeants hold four-meter spears to fight on the battlefield. Coupled with their steel-like discipline and formation, this spear Will play a great role in their hands.

Leiner walked into the workshop, handed the drawings in his hand to a blacksmith, and said to him, "Can this kind of armor be made?"

The blacksmith stretched out his hands full of calluses and burns, respectfully took the parchment from Leiner's hand, looked at it carefully, thought for a while, and then said to Leiner: "Yes, but it will take a lot of money. There will be no shortage of iron materials, if we need to achieve the strength you want, we need to consume at least twice the amount of iron materials in the finished product!"

Reiner nodded. It is quite normal to have some loss during the manufacturing process. Although these junior blacksmiths cannot be called master blacksmiths with superb income, they are quite good.

After handing over the drawings to the blacksmiths, Reiner left here and rushed to the barracks with two subordinates. At this time, Sergeant Moreland was undergoing a running-in training under the order of Sir Leyland, who was appointed by him as a knight. .

The sergeants with strong discipline, awareness of formation and obedience constantly changed their formation under the command of Sir Leyland, and they also held long-lost spears in their hands.

At this time, their long spears are being forged in the blacksmith workshop. According to the current forging efficiency, it is estimated that it will take several months to fully arm them.

"How are these lads? My sergeant?" Reiner looked at the sergeants who were lining up in the field and asked Sir Leyland.

"Very good, Lord Baron, they are much stronger than the sergeants I have commanded before! They are able to fulfill my orders with ease, and they are a group of very good and powerful sergeants!" Sir Leyland said in an admiring tone. Lena said.

"Very well, in the future they will be my main force on the battlefield, not only them, you also need to train my original soldiers well, they will become similar to sergeants, even if they can't reach the level of sergeants , but not too much difference!"

"Yes, Lord Baron, I will definitely train them in the same way as sergeants!" said Sir Leyland.

In the evening, Reiner returned to the castle for dinner. At the dinner table, Little Wend said to Reiner with an excited expression, "Brother, are those really the messengers sent by the Holy Father? They look like that." So strong, so strong!"

He danced and said to Reiner, looking quite fanatical. Obviously, he was very interested in all of this and felt incredible.

"Yes, the Holy Father told me in a dream that he would send messengers to help me, and they did appear!" Reiner shrugged.

"Great! Next time, if there is a battle, I will also participate!" Little Wende said to Reiner, looking at the others at the table.

The child is very smart, he knows that it doesn't matter what other people say about this matter, only Lena, his brother's words are effective.
