Ch.441 Armor (2)
It was his fault for pushing him so hard in the first place, so he couldn't blame her for making that choice.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om
"As for treason—"
Gong Cheng raised his head sharply to look at her. In his opinion, this was the one that bothered him the most, and the one he was most suspicious about.
"I did not betray my country. Jin Yun is my friend, and I just wanted to help him out. I do not believe that counts as treason."
Gong Cheng huffed coldly. He clearly didn't believe it. Leaning back on his throne, he said coldly.
"It's not something that can be dispelled just because you say so. You now have three charges hanging over your head, all of which can sentence you to death! So tell me...how do you wish to buy your fate?"
Naturally, Gong Yimo knew that Gong Cheng would not just let her go like this. If she didn't dispel the fears in his heart, then no matter how many favors she offered him, he still wouldn't let her go.
That's why this has always been a headache for the Emperor.
And, this drawing given by Gong Yimo was a drawing that could improve their armor! And in one fell swoop, it fixed all their problems without leaving any weak points!
Cloth armor.
The armor was made of compressed silk wool that had been repeatedly pounded to increase its density, and iron rivets were attached to increase the defensive power.
Not only that, but you can even splash water on it during the winter to freeze it, further strengthening its defensive capabilities, making it tear-resistant, lightweight, and energy-saving.
Of course, this was only the outer layer.
Gong Cheng saw another picture below. A chain armor made of countless thin chains hooked together!
This chainmail was also very cleverly designed. It was made of iron wire or rings interlocked into the shape of a net. Not only did it greatly save on material costs, but made it much lighter. As for its defensive capabilities, don't even mention an ordinary bow and arrow, even a crossbow would find this hard to penetrate!
Wonderful! Simply wonderful! Why hasn't anyone thought of that already?!
If this was fully implemented, then Dayu's combat power would increase significantly! They would leap by bounds ahead of all others! This invention was, in Gong Cheng's opinion, no lesser than paper-making and printing!
