Iron Dynasty

His Royal Highness, what's the happy event in the past two days, why are you so happy?

Lying on the rocking chair enjoying Luluo's massage, Luluo's words made Xiao Ming suddenly chuckle.

He successfully extracted tungsten, can he be unhappy about this happy event? At present, Zhang Liu from the Equipment Division is working day and night to refine tungsten. After all, because the method is relatively backward, the accumulation of this tungsten will take some days, at least to be able to produce a batch of qualified knives.

Song Changping, on the other hand, worked with Zhang Liu. He did not cooperate with Zhang Liu, but obtained some manganese powder while obtaining tungsten by the carbon reduction method.

However, this theory is a theory, and the specific synthesis experiments have to be operated by Song Changping. After all, it is not an easy problem to strictly control the content of the two elements.

Now that the preliminary preparations for the flintlock gun are already in the experimental stage, he is naturally happy.

Naturally, people feel refreshed when they have a happy event. Xiao Ming squinted at the blue sky. What he loves most is the day without fog.

Luluo pursed her lips and smiled, as if Xiao Ming was happy, she would be happy, Your Highness, Luluo also has a happy event.

Oh, let's hear it.

There is a talented person in our textile workshop. This woman is proficient in weaving and sewing, but she is much better than me. If this goes on, the supervisor of my textile workshop will not be able to continue. Luluo sighed and said. .

Xiao Ming joked: Since that's the case, let her go?

How can you? Your Highness, isn't this chilling? Luluo is not someone who is jealous of the virtuous. Luluo said with a sullen mouth.

Xiao Ming is naturally nonsense. He just wants to see the attitude of this girl. Like Aster, the two girls are very sensible.

He held Luluo's little hand and rubbed it, and said solemnly, Isn't this king feeling sorry for you?

His Royal Highness... Lu Luo blushed and coquettishly shouted.

This soft voice made Xiao Ming's bones brittle in half. If it wasn't for the imminent marriage, he would have rectified this girl on the spot.

After frolicking for a while, Xiao Ming suddenly remembered the matter of Meng Youliang. He hadn't told Luluo about it yet, and he wasn't going to tell her now.

To this Meng Youliang, just as Yue Yun said, he couldn't believe it 100%, so let him eat and drink in prison for a while.

Therefore, he missed this topic and asked: Luluo, how are you preparing the uniforms for the Qingzhou Army, and the shoes for the Qingzhou Army.

We have produced 3,000 sets of military uniforms in the past three months, but this shoe is a bit slower, because it is more troublesome to sew a thousand-layer bottom. Luluo said seriously.

After Xiao Ming handed over the textile workshop to her, she has been very serious and responsible, and she is even more obedient to Xiao Ming's tasks.

Three thousand sets is not bad. Well, I will wrap it up for this king today, and I will send it to the Qingzhou Army. Xiao Ming said.

Now the Qingzhou Army has no other extra military uniforms except the plate armor. These uniforms are the ones he promised to prepare for the Qingzhou Army years ago.

Moreover, the research on the flintlock gun has been on the right track, and the military uniforms of Qingzhou must also adapt to the changes of the times. Although the flexibility of the plate armor is very high, it is still not as flexible as wearing a commoner.

And this slight flexibility will affect the loading of the flintlock gun powder. According to his plan, once the flintlock gun is installed, the plate armor of the Qingzhou Army will be eliminated to the soldiers of other states.

After all, apart from Qingzhou and Dengzhou, only generals in the armies of the other four states have plate armor. When he returned from Dengzhou last time, Ye Qingyun, the governor of Dengzhou, was in charge of escorting Meng Youliang.

Seeing that the plate armor of the ordinary soldiers of the Qingzhou Army in Qingzhou is so good, the jealous eyes are red, and I complained to him for a while.

After enjoying a leisurely morning, Xiao Ming followed Luluo to the textile workshop.

In the textile workshop he saw the uniforms of the Qingzhou Army.

According to Xiao Ming's design, the three words Qingzhou Army were embroidered on the left arm of the Qingzhou Army uniform. At the same time, there were two crossed swords at the bottom, and the bottom was golden wheat ears.

Since the army is to be regularized, the badge of the army is also required. The implication of this badge is that the army comes from the people, and the army is responsible for protecting the people.

His Royal Highness, this is the Melaleuca bottom we accept. Baby Luluo gave him something similar to old Beijing cloth shoes.

Xiao Ming picked it up and took a look, and a very kind feeling rushed to his face. He also wore this kind of thousand-layer cloth shoes when he was a child.

This kind of sole is not rubber, nor is it plastic, but the coarse cloth is sewn layer after layer, and the cloth is sewn two centimeters high, which becomes a sole.

It's just that many people can't wear such soles in Qingzhou.

The soldiers of the Qingzhou Army are all people from the bottom. In this era, the rich can only wear a thousand layers of bottom, and the poor can only wear straw sandals.

Yes, the craftsmanship is very delicate, how many pairs are there in total? Xiao Ming asked. It could be seen that since the salary increase, the female workers in the textile workshop have become more refined and hardworking.

One thousand two hundred pairs. Luluo said.

At the same time, the textile mills were already putting military uniforms and shoes on carriages.

After checking that the clothes and shoes were correct, Xiao Ming took the military uniform to the Qingzhou camp.

Among the six states, the Qingzhou Army was the most sophisticated army and the best equipped army. In the Battle of Cangzhou, the Qingzhou Army also proved its combat effectiveness.

Of course, such a main force must be taken care of.

Of course, it's not that Xiao Ming doesn't look down on the troops of other states, but now that his financial resources are limited, he can only focus on the Qingzhou army first.

Your Highness, what is this?

Xiao Ming brought dozens of carriages to the Qingzhou camp, and Lu Fei immediately came up like a thief. He knew that Xiao Ming must have brought something good.

Looking at Lu Fei's shoes that had worn down to only a few layers of cloth, Xiao Ming took out a brand new pair of shoes from the carriage and threw them over, Here are you.

Lu Fei caught it, and when he saw that it was a brand new pair of shoes, he was immediately beaming with joy, and he shouted, Come on, your Highness has sent us military uniforms!

The soldiers who were trained in the school grounds were all soldiers under Lu Fei's hands, a total of 3,000 people, all of them immediately surrounded, with excitement in their eyes.

Uniforms out! This is something the soldiers have been looking forward to for a long time.

Xiao Ming was about to say that he should hand over the uniform to Niu Ben, but Lu Fei suddenly shouted: What are you waiting for, take it quickly, take it quickly, and when the other captains come over, this uniform will give them a portion of the points. Moon.

Xiaowei Lu, you are so inauthentic. Don't want to take advantage of anything good. We also have a share of this military uniform. I don't know when, other captains also ran over with soldiers. After learning that it was a military uniform, they were immediately dissatisfied. road.
