When Kushan was engaged in defensive etching, he had considered how to deal with this matter if it was acquired by the Han Dynasty, but again, it was the Han Dynasty that had the advantage, not Kushan.
Therefore, Kushan could only consider how to deal with the Han Dynasty acquiring this technology, but could not consider not using this technology.
At that time, Kushan hired professionals to conduct detailed analysis and determined that this etching technology was quite complicated. Even if the Han Dynasty obtained it, the Han Dynasty's current equipment, which mainly consisted of plate armor, would not be etched.
It requires a lot of manpower and material resources.
After all, the difficulty of etching on plate armor is much greater than that of engraving on leather armor, and these etchings pay attention to patterns and depths. If there is a slight mistake, it will not be able to connect with the free spirit released by oneself and the essence of heaven and earth outside.
Compared with using a metal carving knife to outline on the leather armor, after the outline is completed, relying on the essence of heaven and earth to close it, it is so difficult to directly engrave on the armor that even the top etching talents in Kushan cannot guarantee a 30% success.
Rate.
You must know that once the etching on the armor is wrong, it will be too difficult to change. You can only polish off the previous etching lines and re-engrave them, and this process requires a lot of time and energy.
So after comprehensive consideration, Guishang felt that this thing could be used, and maybe it could be used as a strategy to weaken the enemy. How to say, this is the same as the Koreans were afraid that Qin would attack them, so they sent Zheng Guo to Qin for domestic construction.
Zheng Guoqu was the same as delaying the development of Qin.
What's even worse is that Chen Xi's way of thinking is completely different from the way Kushan uses manpower.
When Chen Xi got the defensive etching pattern, he didn't plan to do any manual etching. Of course, he had to directly suppress the pattern at this time.
Anyway, all the requirements for this thing are very clear. I asked someone to take some time to analyze each one and make a Yang carving, then perform special warming and cultivation, sacrifice the arcane spirit, and then suppress it directly on the armor.
As for the etching patterns produced by this kind of suppression, there is no guarantee that each one is a finished product, and the yield rate is even very low. Is this a problem?
This is not a problem!
What etching errors are extremely difficult to change?
I made a mistake and just changed to another one and continued using the assembly line to suppress it. I just pressed a set of patterns on the inside of the plate armor. If it succeeded, there would be defensive etching. If it failed, it would still be a heavy plate armor. Anyway, there is no loss, that's it.
Can be suppressed.
If the leather armor is trimmed like this, if there is a problem with the texture, the leather armor will definitely be useless. However, heavy plate armor is different. A circle of patterns is pressed on it, which will not have any impact on the armor itself.
Sand it off before it's done?
Chen Xi wouldn't do this kind of thing. If it's not done well, it's not done well. A little more patterns won't affect the defense. Just wear it. When it needs to be reheated in two years, get it back and heat it up until it's slightly softened. The water power
A new plate armor comes out under the forging machine in one second.
Compared with the difficulty of manufacturing scale armor, the mold of plate armor is very clear, and direct pressing can solve most of the links. In addition, only plate armor and shields need to be defensively etched, and these two things have large-scale
Under the premise of a hydraulic forging machine, you pour the softened steel in and smash it into the shape you need in a few strokes.
So when Chen Xi got the defensive etching, he never thought about making any mess, polishing off this layer of etching, time-consuming and labor-intensive, nonsense, suppression, direct suppression. Compared with other solutions, directly
Got it on automatic etching and assembly lines.
As for the initial yield rate being lower than 2%, this is not a problem for Chen Xi. Anyway, it is just an extra factory built and an extra process.
In Kuishang's view, doing this was time-consuming and laborious, consuming the energy of the Han Dynasty. However, in Chen Xi's view, it was just a factory added and an additional process. With such a factory, there was an additional process.
After that, there is a 2% chance of top armor appearing.
There is a 2% probability of 200 armor reaching the defense of 300 armor, and this only requires a handle, because what Chen Xi does is very rough. If you really want to say it, the cost is actually very low, because Chen Xi does not pursue so-called good products.
Efficiency, the direct assembly line pressing mode is the same as the current forging and printing pattern scheme. We work with the idea of what can be achieved and what cannot be failed.
Anyway, there is no cost for pressing this button. If it works, you will earn blood. If it doesn’t work, you will just press it once.
You must know that the essence of this etching is not to enhance the defense, but to directly conceptually enhance the thickness of the armor, increasing the thickness by 30%. On something like heavy plate armor, it is much stronger than strengthening the defense by 30%.
cut.
The thickening of the 5cm steel plate to 8cm can even be said to be a qualitative change. In the former, Bartley can penetrate it, but in the latter, Bartley's bullets may have to be embedded in it. This is a huge difference.
So Chen Xi's idea at that time was to go through the new forging assembly line, press and etch the lines, and do the same with the armor sent back for repair. The 2% small rate of top quality, what can I say? Of course it is a pile of quantity. The Han family has more than a dozen
The armor of the Ten Thousand Shield Guards can produce at least several thousand pieces of usable equipment based on a small best rate of 2%.
Besides, the parts that were not etched in the first pass were sent over for the second pass to be repaired and remade. In the process of remaking, it is just steel. After it is softened, press it hard in the forging room.
The etching will be gone, and if you go through it again later, the chance will be 2% again.
This cycle repeats itself, and sooner or later most plate armor will be burned with defensive etching.
This is what Chen Xi thinks and does. The problem is that Chen Xi considers the worst case scenario, but can the reality be so bad that it is the worst case scenario every time?
Of course it was impossible. The Han Dynasty could not beat Kushan in secret arts, so there was no way. Who allowed Kushan to have a backend, but he far surpassed Kushan in terms of mechanical equipment development, assembly lines, precision etching, etc.
After Xiangli's optimization of the assembly line, Nanyang Zhang, Huang Yueying and others' secondary optimization of mechanical equipment, and a group of immortals' research on the pressing texture, the original 2% yield rate quickly climbed to 20% during this year.
.
Although there is still a considerable difference compared to the 30% estimated by Kushan, Kushan's process involved time-consuming and laborious polishing and etching, while Han Dynasty's process involved the direct pressing of a hydraulic forging machine. The gap between the two sides was so huge that it was almost already
You can't rely on reason anymore.
At least when Liu Bei received the first batch of five thousand sets of plate armor with defensive etching from Chen Xi, Liu Bei's head was buzzing. He understood the difficulty of this thing, but because of his understanding, he could I understand how outrageous it is to have so many defensive etching equipment.
Especially since all the gadgets were almost exactly the same, and there were no signs of repeated modifications even in the notches, Liu Bei knew that this gadget was most likely put on the assembly line by Chen Xi.
Because Liu Bei had visited assembly line production before, he knew very well that as long as anything could be put on the assembly line, the efficiency would be so high that it would kill all other gadgets in the same industry.
And now this thing has been moved to the assembly line. Shouldn't this be the most cutting-edge technology? Why has it suddenly become popular?
For this reason, Liu Bei personally went to the etching center on the Weishui River to have a look. He just felt that there was no point in talking about the yield rate. This was not a production idea at all.
"Zichuan is currently changing equipment. It should not take long to produce tens of thousands of shield armors with defensive etching." Liu Bei said to Zhu Jun with a complex attitude.
Before seeing Chen Xi's assembly line, Liu Bei's understanding of defensive etching was that it was the top technology of the empire. After seeing Chen Xi's assembly line, Liu Bei felt that this thing was just an ordinary civilian technology, that is, Kushan. The thinking there has not changed.
"How many tens of thousands of pieces of this kind of thing can be produced?" Zhu Jun's mind was also buzzing. This is too outrageous. I thought this was special equipment prepared for generals, but the rear is really preparing it for all. Is the shield guard equipped with such outrageous things?
"Yes, tens of thousands of pieces should have been produced. Zichuan is now asking the factory to work overtime for production." Liu Bei nodded and said, "And our professionals here are also developing a new generation of defensive etching. Use the hope to develop willpower to defend against etching.”
If the will defense etching can be used, the shield guard will basically eliminate all shortcomings. Even if there is a problem of insufficient attack power, it is not for the same level, not to mention the large-scale shield guard sea, which has so many more attacks. In fact, it doesn't mean much, just push and crush.
"Can such a thing be produced?" Zhu Jun said in disbelief. He even thought that if such a thing could be produced, what else would they do and what kind of soldiers should they train? Although the shield guard is a basic unit, his physical fitness is good. Rely on muscle-increasing injections and eating and drinking to strengthen training. For defense, you can rely on super plate armor and defensive etching. If you have shortcomings in will, you can rely on willpower to defend against etching.
The entire army serves until the age of twenty-five and changes into a suit of armor. It becomes the top main battle army. What kind of mess is needed? The talent tree has no meaning in this situation!
"I don't know, it should be possible, but it should take a lot of time. But now that we have obtained the runes, with reference, at least we have a direction." Liu Bei said with a smile, "In the future, the safety of the soldiers will be an issue. It was further resolved.”
Zhu Jun nodded silently. Even if his position as a general felt that if it really got to that point, old guys like him would have to be eliminated, he still had to admit that what Liu Bei said was correct.
"I think it is necessary for me to try new defensive talents." Zhu Jun said after a while, "Defensive etching has replaced the heavy armor talents to a certain extent. As expected, many things will gradually be eliminated due to changes in the times."
In the era of cloth armor, the most popular defensive talent was called Defense Blessing, which directly obtained fixed defense power. But in the era of leather armor, scale armor, and chain armor, the most popular defensive talent was called Defense Enhancement, which directly enhanced leather armor. , the percentage defense power of scale armor and chain armor. When the Han Dynasty further developed into the Yuanfeng Year and shield guard armor appeared, the popular talent became heavy armor defense, which directly added a certain conceptual thickness to the armor.
However, with the development of the times, Zhu Jun has realized that heavy armor defense has also failed to keep up with the trend of the times. When it comes to developing new defense type talents, if the technology is not to be eliminated, it must lead the times, and the cruel military strategist If you don't want to be killed in your profession, then you'd better stand at the top of the times, otherwise, you will be crushed to death sooner or later.
Others directly say that "the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves in front, and the waves in front die on the beach" is just a joke. No matter how miserable it is, people will not die, but the military strategist is not a joke, it will really kill you. A profession that kills people.
"I won't say much more about this aspect. General Zhu understands it more deeply than I do." Liu Bei said with a smile. Although he also understood, it would be meaningless to show off his understanding in front of Zhu Jun. Until now, the concept of talent tree , the Han Dynasty already has many legion commanders, but how to reach the top of the talent tree for them is really not something that ordinary legion commanders can understand.
In Chang'an, when Liu Bei picked up Zhu Jun, Chen Xi had already sent people to open the treasury to mobilize various weapons and equipment. This time he was really planning to build a big one in the world. The difference in the flow of time inside and outside the world has led to many This problem is also an important reason why the Han Dynasty cannot farm in the world.
After making insinuations from many aspects and confirming that the problem of side flow speed in the world was essentially a rule issue caused by an ancient god being killed and exiled, Chen Xi thought that he could try to defeat this rule. Although it would not defeat the entire region, It should be no problem to break up some of the rules so that the Han Dynasty's advance base is not affected by this.
At the same time, the main family of Yuan Wang Yang San's family in Central Asia also purged all the elite backbones, brought their family's clan-suppressing treasures, and prepared to fight fiercely in Africa. After all, Little Brahma can explode the land. It's really outrageous.
Compared with other things, the Han Dynasty's demand for land is from the heart, not to mention that the quality of the land released by Xiao Brahma is very good. In this case, there was no big deal in the first place, but it was just consolidating in Central Asia. The three families of Yuan Wang and Yang Yang of their own power directly brought their top-notch weapons and even took out their own secret treasures, and headed to Africa under the leadership of the patriarch or acting patriarch. After all, for them, this is the biggest opportunity in life. .
"Speaking of which, why did you carry such a coffin when you came?" Wang Chang, the acting patriarch sent to Africa by the Wang family, frowned somewhat as he looked at the large bronze coffin carried by the Yang family.
What's more important is that Wang Chang is very knowledgeable. The patterns and etchings on this bronze coffin make people more and more frightened as they look at it. This seems to be an emperor's coffin. Are you, the Yang family, crazy? Which emperor's coffin did you dig up?
It can really kill people.
It's completely hopeless. Sigh, I'm really a loser.
