"It's natural to try. You have good language talent and learn very quickly." Sima Ji didn't say much, and asked the craftsmen to take out the armor and put it on, waved his hand to ask the guards behind him to find a place to test their defense.

There are two conditions for plate armor to be forged. The first is a blast furnace and fuel-based to ensure the temperature of forging, so that cast iron can be made possible. The second is a hydraulic machinery support. With these two guarantees, this is no longer a problem. Although the fully mature plate armor is not invincible in the era of cold weapons, it basically has no opponents. The Scottish longbow is not an opponent at all. The protection of plate armor and the flexibility brought to soldiers under the same weight are beyond the reach of other iron armors.

Sima Ji wanted to deal with such an army wearing plate armor. He first had to recruit ten thousand Li Yuanba. If it still didn't work, he would just subdue the porcelain. Ten thousand Pei Yuanqing would do it. According to the theory that as long as the power is large, he could only use a blunt weapon with extremely heavy weight, or a musket.

Hundreds of meters away, the hydraulic machinery placed by the river was still operating in an orderly manner, making the sound of Gragra, and the surrounding fog was rippling. Obviously, the temperature there was quite high, which formed such a landscape.

After waiting for a while, several craftsmen lifted the plate armor up. Just after a glance at Sima Ji, they knew that there was still a gap. The plate armor in his impression was much brighter than the plate armor in front of him. I wonder if the plate armor raised by Sepolis could reach the level of the earliest Milan armor.

Sima Ji did not say much and directly reached out to touch the set of plate armor. He raised his hands hard behind him, and his hands were sinking. The weight was really not light. Only a few people could wear it on the battlefield. The ordinary people within the sealed country absolutely did not have this ability.

Don’t think that the King of Yan is generous and not accustomed to the battle formation, but his body is definitely much stronger than ordinary people and more powerful than ordinary people. Don’t think that the meals for so many years are for nothing. Even in Youzhou, there are many people who can only barely fill their stomachs. People who are hungry and full should not compete with the King of Yan for physical fitness.

Touching the edge of the plate armor, Sima Ji observed carefully and shook his head in his heart, but his skills were still not up to standard.

"What does the Persian blast furnace compare with my Dajin's? You are blacksmiths in both countries. See if there is any place to learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses?" Sima Ji tilted his head and asked Sepolis. As the center of Western Asian civilization, Persia has forged the ancestors of Damascus steel knives, and should have some skills.

"There are some subtle differences. His Highness Yan, if you want to say a big surprise, I have never seen the method of using water conservancy to complete forging before, which is eye-opening." Sepolis was stunned, and then praised the hydraulic machinery of all sizes by the river.

Let’s not talk about this. This is not from the Jin Dynasty. The one who really made the hydraulic machinery was a small European country in the Middle Ages. Other civilizations were really younger brothers in this regard. Sima Ji thought about it, but he still looked calm and said modestly, "There are still technology that leads hundreds of countries in the Eastern world."

The Yan King did not overestimate the many tribes in the east, west, south and north. He focused his attention on the plate armor again. Some places can still be improved. After all, I, the Great Jin Dynasty, have its own national conditions.

In Sima Ji's opinion, the full-body armor in Western Europe is not suitable for the East. The armor on his body after his death can replace the coffin, which is too luxurious for the Jin Dynasty. Whether it is cold weapons or hot weapons, China has been paying attention to quantity since ancient times. The full-body armor in Western Europe is not suitable for large-scale entry into the Jin Dynasty army.

Furthermore, he cannot guarantee that the conditions he provides now do not guarantee that the conditions he could meet the conditions when European plate armor appeared. He could tell just one glance that if it was a full-body plate armor, it would definitely be much heavier than European plate armor.

This is a big problem. Sima Ji is well aware of the differences between races. Even at the same height, white people look much stronger than yellow people, just like yellow people's thinking and reactions faster than other races. If you don't admit this, you are blind. It's just that war is not about the body, otherwise black people should be the best fight.

Considering the soldiers' continuous combat ability, Sima Ji had to delete some unnecessary parts unless he was so generous that he used plate armor to arm the Murong family. Murong family had many mixed-race troops.

If it is not cut, Sima Ji will carefully select soldiers who can wear plate armor and continue to fight in Youzhou. If so, the result will be a copy of the European nobles. A few elite soldiers wear plate armor and serve several servants behind him. Even if he thinks that the Teutonic Knights are very cool, they cannot do this.

China and Europe are two types of war. Europe can arm thousands of people and sweep a country with a plate armor. But the country there is only as big as Youzhou. The number of soldiers in China has never been a problem, and the area is much larger. When you really fight, thousands of people are not enough to get stuck in the gaps.

When Sima Ji was raising his nose and looking straight, several strong guards had already set off their bows and arrows and shot at the erected plate armor. The shooting distance was the maximum power of the heavy arrow, about fifty meters.

Bang bang..., the crescent arrows kept hitting the plate armor, making sounds one after another, and a ray of Mars could be drawn from time to time, which did not disturb the King of Yan's own confusion.

However, after a few guards, the Jurchen heavy arrows themselves were not able to learn, and the operation was much more difficult than the Central Plains bow. In addition, in order to test the protective power of the plate armor, the maximum strength must be used. Not long after, several guards felt the scorching pain in their fingers, but they did not dare to stop because the King of Yan did not order to stop.

Finally, the heavy arrows of the quiver were shot, and several guards stopped. The hands of the bow were already trembling slightly. There were thousands of ravines on the standing plate armor, with several arrows inserted, and broken arrows around them.

At this time, Sima Ji realized that unfortunately ignored several loyal guards, walked directly to the front of the plate armor and stretched out his fingers to grind it. The next moment, he counted the broken arrows on the ground, and sixty arrows pierced the four plate armors. He had no idea whether the success rate was high or not, but it was pretty good at first glance.

Moreover, the Jin army is not equipped with heavy arrows. The Central Plains bow pays attention to the use of range and speed on a large scale, so it should not be more powerful than the heavy arrows.
