Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In a country as hierarchical as the Norman Empire, a country with three, six or nine grades must be divided everywhere. The weapons used by soldiers are of course divided into many grades. A suitable weapon can be used for those who often fight in battles.  For the soldiers who fight against others on the battlefield, it is almost equivalent to their second life. Under such circumstances, in the Norman Empire's army, the more outstanding the merits, the higher the rank and position of the soldiers, and it is natural that they  , will also have more sophisticated weapons and equipment. Those sophisticated weapons and equipment are not comparable to ordinary standard equipment in terms of production technology and materials.

    The super-heavy war sword "Man's Proof" that Zhang Tie once used was made of second-grade tungsten-manganese alloy steel. The weapons used by ordinary imperial soldiers are generally standard equipment made of some ordinary first-grade alloys.  When officers reach the school level, the weapons and equipment they use are already some third-level special alloy materials.  The value of third-grade special alloy materials has exceeded the same weight of gold.

    As one of the rewards of the Norman Empire for recipients of the Iron-Blooded Medal, warriors who have received the Iron-Blooded Medal are allowed to select a non-standard equipment made of at least level three special alloy materials from the legion's equipment library as their reward.

    Since there are such benefits, Zhang Tie, whose body has recovered, will naturally not miss it.

    Second Lieutenant Piping drove Zhang Tie in his car, and in less than half an hour, he arrived at a base where the equipment office of the Legion Logistics Department is located.

    Because they were both officers from the Logistics Department, it was easier to deal with each other. Second Lieutenant Piping had an acquaintance here. After explaining his purpose of coming and verifying Zhang Tie's identity, a captain officer from the Logistics Department took the two men directly.  Arrive at the equipment warehouse.

    "Compared with the ordnance warehouse of the Thirty-ninth Division, the weapons and equipment in the warehouse of the Army Equipment Department are more than ten times more.  Zhang Tie's first visit to the warehouse of the Legion Equipment Department really opened his eyes again. Weapons and equipment that are more exaggerated than "man's proof" are everywhere in the warehouse of the Legion Equipment Department, and they are all used.  Well maintained.

    All standard equipment was packed in boxes, and what Zhang Tie saw were basically non-standard weapons and equipment that could only be used by officers above lieutenant officer.  There is a terrifying shield that is similar to a gate, with dense spikes on the surface, a wheeled ax that is as tall as a person, and a terrifying war hammer that weighs more than 500 kilograms and has nine spikes.  There is a ferocious-shaped super-heavy chain flail, a double-edged spear more than 5 meters long, and a super-heavy backpack-type crossbow that is like a small fort. According to the introduction, the combat weight of the backpack-type super-heavy crossbow has reached 1.2 tons.  Zhang Tie wondered what kind of strong man could carry such a big guy to the battlefield.

    In addition to these, there are also various weapons and equipment that Zhang Tie knows and does not know.

    If Zhang Tie¡¯s ¡°Proof of Man¡± were placed in this place.  That would be unremarkable at all.

    Perhaps the place with the strongest atmosphere of war in the entire Brape is the ordnance warehouse in the equipment department.

    When he saw several terrifying war bows placed side by side on a row of weapon racks in this warehouse, for some reason, something special seemed to well up in Zhang Tie's heart.  Zhang Tie had never touched a war bow, but seeing these war bows, Zhang Tie had some strange feelings of intimacy.

    "Are there any units in the legion equipped with military merit?" Zhang Tie asked the captain of the equipment department.

    "In the entire empire, because the cost of training an archer is too high. It is far less cheap than training a crossbowman, so all the battle bows in the empire's troops are non-standard equipment. These battle bows are for several members of the legion.  Equipment purchased by bow masters from abroad!¡±

    "Equipment purchased from abroad?" Zhang Tie glanced at the captain officer curiously, "Is it true that the Norman Empire still cannot manufacture a few war bows?"

    "War bows are weapons that require the highest manufacturing process and materials. Of course, the Empire can also manufacture war bows, but in the entire Blackson Human Corridor, the best war bows are produced in the Jinyun Kingdom to the east of the corridor" That  The captain officer glanced at Zhang Tie when he said this, "The Kingdom of Jinyun is a human country with Chinese as the main body. Those who can use war bows on the battlefield are all masters, and they are highly valued by the army commanders. Because all the people who use war bows  The masters of bows have very high requirements for bow fighting and are somewhat stubborn and paranoid, so"

    Speaking of this, the captain officer was very reserved and did not continue, but Zhang Tie understood what he meant, that is, none of those guys who have the ability and confidence to use war bows on the battlefield are willing to use second-rate weapons made by the Norman Empire.  Everyone likes to use the war bow made by Jinyun Kingdom, so the empire is probably too embarrassed to make this kind of weapon. And because it is non-standard equipment, one legion will not be equipped with too many, so it is simply  Just purchase from abroad.

    ?Seeing these war bows, Zhang Tie couldn't help but think of Bruce. According to Zhang Tie's understanding of Bruce, if that guy had a choice, he would definitely choose the best war bow and not settle for second best.  It is estimated that those who use bows and arrows probably have some strange tempers.

    Jinyun Country - Zhang Tie remembered this name. As a Chinese, he felt a little proud. However, with two officers from the Norman Empire standing in front of him, Zhang Tie was embarrassed to express his pride as a Chinese.  Instead, he picked up a war bow in front of him and looked at it.

    The war bow is very heavy, almost more than 20 kilograms. The material of the bow handle seems to be very strange. It is neither gold nor wood. I don¡¯t know what it is made of. The whole war bow is very well made. When you hold it in your hand, it makes people feel  I feel a kind of vigor and murderous spirit.

    When putting the bow back to its original position, Zhang Tie noticed that there were two small Chinese seal characters "Huaiyuan" on the bow handle.

    ¡­¡­

    Because the weapons are made of third-level special alloy materials, only first-level corps officers are eligible to use them. Therefore, the warehouse where these weapons are placed is smaller, less than 100 square meters, in a room inside the armory.  Inside, you have to open a door to get in.

    Under the leadership of the captain officer, Zhang Tie and Second Lieutenant Piping came to this place where more advanced weapons were displayed.

    Compared with the weapons outside that are very scary in appearance and size, perhaps because the materials are relatively precious, the weapons in this warehouse look much more "normal". Those weapons that weigh hundreds of kilograms or even nearly a ton often weigh  Man, I can¡¯t see any of them. The three most common weapons in this house are knives, guns, and swords, as well as some other strange-looking things. There are almost more than 200 items in total, because they are all non-standard.  Weapons, every weapon here is almost unique in terms of appearance.

    Looking at the fine weapons shining with cold light on the weapon racks, Zhang Tie's eyes were suddenly brighter than ten thousand year fluorite lamps.

    There is no doubt that the most valuable and sophisticated weapon Zhang Tiechang has ever seen is here.

    The officer who brought Zhang Tie in casually pulled out a long sword with a shiny pattern like fish scales from a rack, and then picked up an ordinary finger-thick steel bar next to it without looking at how hard he used it.  , just to see him holding the steel bar in front of him, and holding the sword in his other hand and swiping down.

    "Clang" With a sound, the steel bar in his hand fell to the ground like a cut cucumber, and rolled to Zhang Tie's feet. Zhang Tie bent down and picked up the steel bar, and the entire section of the steel bar,  As smooth as a mirror.

    Such a weapon is really worthy of the word "iron is cut like clay."  If an ordinary soldier's weapon were to fight against such a weapon, it wouldn't take more than a few blows, and the weapon in the ordinary soldier's hand would be cut off.  The captain officer took the sword over and showed it to Zhang Tie. There was not even a trace on the blade that had just cut off a steel bar, and the entire blade was still shining coldly.

    Second Lieutenant Piping also swallowed a sip of saliva. In the eyes of Second Lieutenant Piping, these weapons were just piles of gold coins.

    "Are all the weapons here of this level?" Zhang Tie asked the captain officer.

    "It's almost the same, but each has its own differences. The third-level special alloy has some strange properties, such as this" The captain officer took a hand shield with a unique shape, "The one used on this shield is  It is a third-level memory alloy. No matter how you smash it or deform it, as long as it is exposed to fire and exposed to high temperatures, it will quickly return to its original shape."

    Putting down his hand shield, the captain picked up a heavy machine crossbow next to him. Watching the captain pick up a heavy machine crossbow with one hand, Zhang Tie and Second Lieutenant Piping both took a bite.  shock.

    The captain smiled and said, "This heavy-duty crossbow doesn't look very heavy. In fact, because it is made of special alloy materials, it is much lighter than a light crossbow, but it is powerful.  But there¡¯s nothing missing! Take a look, you can choose any weapon here"

    Zhang Tie strolled among the sophisticated weapons to choose, because most of the military officers in the legion usually choose a long knife or long sword when they come here, while the cavalry officers like long guns, so there are only these in this warehouse.  There are three items at the most, but there are also many other items. Even more advanced war bows, there are two here.

    Second Lieutenant Piping suggested that Zhang Tie choose a long sword. Zhang Tie shook his head. The long swords here are good, but they are too conspicuous. The same goes for those swords and guns. Zhang Tie actually wants to choose one that he can carry with him at any time and use it to fight in critical situations.  , but a weapon that is usually not very eye-catching.  If there was such a weapon, it would undoubtedly be much easier to deal with a kidnapping like the last time.

      In the end, among all the weapons in the entire warehouse, what caught Zhang Tie's eyes was a strange item. Unlike other weapons placed on the weapon racks, this item was placed on  It was in a dark red tray, softly rolled into a circle, like a belt. Among the magnificent and shiny weapons with different shapes around it, it was as inconspicuous as an ugly duckling
