Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 82:
Sui Xiong is not proficient in history, but as a networm, it doesn't matter if he doesn't understand history, netizens do.
When chatting with netizens, he once heard an allusion: In ancient times, a tribe who didn’t know whether to call "Miao" or "You Miao" did not obey the orders of the emperor. At that time, the emperor was Shun in Yao, Shun and Yu, he sent a group of sturdy men, carrying axes and shields, to a place close to the tribe, and conducted an armed exercise—so the tribe obedient.
There is an allusion to this incident, which is called "Xiu Wen De". Sui Xiong still doesn't understand why armed exercises are considered "wen" virtue-this is all "Wen", could it be that killing the whole family is considered "wu" virtue ?
When he heard this story, he felt that this approach was really pretending to be the extreme, and also the extreme, and he has been very fascinated. Hearing what Palin said at the moment, I couldn't help but think of this allusion and couldn't help laughing.
After laughing, he supplemented Palin's plan.
"We will not only display sophisticated weapons and armors near the portal, but also send troops to train and exercise in the portal square... No, the place is a bit small and may not be able to be deployed... Okay, we are there. Arrange a large projection to show everyone the scene of the exercise!"
Palin was taken aback, and asked: "exercise? What is that?"
Sui Xiong just remembered that there is no concept of exercise in this world. In this world, if you want to train an army, in addition to burying your head in the barracks, you are going to find monsters or robbers for actual combat. Of course, if conditions permit, large-scale hunting can also be organized, and hunting can be used as a military exercise.
In general, their military concept is quite backward!
He didn't know, in fact, it was almost the same in ancient times on earth. It's not because of the backward military concept, it is simply that there are not enough resources to support military exercises in the modern sense.
In military exercises, someone will inevitably be injured. The level of medical care in ancient times is far behind that in modern times, and the death rate of soldiers after being injured is extremely high, so no one can bear to toss like this.
But this is not a problem for the Northwestern Republic. They not only have enough medical teams, but also Sui Xiong's full support. No matter how bad the injury is, Sui Xiong will treat him personally. With him watching, it was not easy for the soldiers to die by accident.
With reliable security guarantees, of course you can engage in exercises.
So Sui Xiong summoned the military officials of the Northwest Republic and announced the incident.
"It's okay." said the evil **** Leonard, who is almost equivalent to the military commander. "But it takes some time to prepare. You must mobilize the troops from all over the country and change their outfits until they are fully adapted to the new Relevant training can only be carried out after being equipped. After training for a period of time, exercises can be carried out."
Sui Xiong frowned and asked, "How long does that take?"
"If the equipment supply can keep up, it will take about two months."
Sui Xiong naturally understood that Leonard was right, but he couldn't help sighing.
It actually takes two months... The army of mortals is really inconvenient!
If this is the Divine Envoy Army, it is decided today, and the team can be pulled up to practice at the latest tomorrow, or even if it is in a hurry, once it is decided, it can start the exercise immediately.
But he also knew that divine envoys and mortals were completely different. They are essentially manifestations of divine power, and training them for exercises does not actually make much sense-those elite divine envoys with their own souls are nothing more or less effective, but for those mass-produced divine envoys of cannon fodder nature. , Any training is meaningless.
So in the kingdom of gods, no one has ever wasted time and divine power to train those cannon fodder who live and die.
Actually, in terms of efficiency, it is the fastest and best that the deity sends a large number of divine envoys to deal with the war on earth. But this will not only consume a huge amount of divine power, but also easily arouse public anger-everyone is honestly cultivating a mortal army, and you directly send an army of divine envoys. Is this showing your muscles? Or do you want to blind everyone?
This is like a rich man with money, gold and silver hanging on his clothes, and walking alone in a chaotic slum, and then laughing three times, yelling "I'm so rich."
Well, there is basically no other word to describe besides begging.
Sui Xiong certainly doesn't want to do this kind of thing, so he can only wait patiently, waiting for the mortal army to be slowly trained.
Fortunately, before that, he can also find something else to do.
For example, improving the process.
He came to the metallurgical technology research team led by Palin, asked them about the progress of their scientific research, and visited the new armor they made.
Compared with traditional armors, these new armors are a bit too simple. There are hardly any decorative patterns or objects on the whole armor pieces. The place where the armor pieces are connected is only connected in series with strong leather and metal ropes. There is no point of decoration.
From a few samples, this armor is really unpretentious, not to mention the simple style, even the color looks gray-because Palin also specially made them surface anti-rust Treat to avoid steel rust. This gray and autumnal color is the effect of the anti-rust treatment. It doesn't look good, but it works.
Sui Xiong took a close look at these armors, and personally experimented with their effects. Compared with the samples used as reference, it was generally quite satisfactory.
The quality of these armors, of course, is not as good as those fine armors made with divine power or magic, but they are much better than the refined armors made by ordinary craftsmen. Using them to arm soldiers is enough to make any army in the world look jealous-you know, many knights don't have such a complete set of heavy armor!
It's just that he thought about it for a while, but he felt that there seemed to be some shortcomings in this armor, and what could be further improved.
(What is missing?)
Sui Xiong did not hinder Palin and the others in their research. He stayed quietly to one side, facing a pair of gray and autumn new mass-produced armor and another radiant breastplate~IndoMTL.com~ pondering this. Where can this new type of armor be further improved?
He pondered for a long time, and finally figured it out.
Look at this new type of armor. The bare piece on it is like a new piece of white paper. With such a blank paper, why do you draw something? For example, get something like magic patterns on it?
He talked to Palin and others about his thoughts, Palin and the others looked at each other, and finally said that they had thought about it, but couldn't do it.
"Huh? Is this difficult to do?" Sui Xiong was a little surprised, "It shouldn't be difficult to engrave some magic patterns on such a smooth and glorious nail..."
"The key is...we won't." Palin said with a wry smile, "The magician's enchantment technology needs to be carried out during the armor production process. If you want to enchant after the armor is completed, or please ask a high-level one. The mage comes to cast advanced magic spells, or is to find a rune mage to engrave the runes. The cost of the former is too high, and the gain is not worth the loss; the latter...Where shall we find the rune mage?"
Only then did Sui Xiong understand what was going on, so he slapped his chest to indicate that this matter was on him, and then set off immediately to look for the Rune Master.
