Shimazu Dairo looked down from his open military uniform and said, "Oh...is this what the prince is talking about?"
After unbuttoning the inner lining, he took out a half-palm-sized piece of ceramic composite armor, handed it to Emperor Guangxu Yixin and said calmly, "It's a life-saving armor piece that blocks bullets!"
"Ah..." A group of Qing Dynasty generals around him exclaimed. As soon as they heard about the life-saving items, they all gathered around him regardless of his rudeness.
This is a ceramic composite armor piece that carries body temperature. In fact, the principle is very simple. It is a single-layer or double-layer ceramic piece designed according to different physical abilities and loads!
This kind of ceramic piece does not need to be exquisite, and it does not matter if it has a few bubbles and trachoma. What is important is that it can be mass-produced at a low price! The piece in Guizi Liuyixin's hand is thickened. There are two pieces of ceramics, with an adhesive layer and some linen and leather pieces stuck together.
There is also a thin layer of rubber coating on the inside and outside of the ceramic, which is less than one centimeter thick. How about the weight? It feels a little heavy when you put it on your hand, but it is much lighter than steel.
Since a layer of rubber was applied on the front and back for cushioning and wear resistance, Guiziliu couldn't tell what was inside.
He asked Shimazu Dairo, "What is this? How can it block bullets? This thing is heavier than leather armor but lighter than steel. I believe you say it can block bows and arrows, but I don't believe it can block bullets!"
Na Duobao had fought with these special forces before, and he said in shock, "No wonder when I fought with you in the middle of the night, I clearly shot you in the back, but you actually got up and ran after you fell. Same……"
"So there is such a thing? What on earth is this?"
Guiziliu looked at it over and over for a long time and sneered, "Tell me what this is, and I will agree to your request to gather the bones! Also, just keep these things you are wearing for me!"
Before Shimazu Dalang could speak, the other Fuso warriors were all angry: "Baga! How dare you covet the treasure of my Chinese clan? Shimazu-san, do you dare to betray the head of state?"
"Everyone be honest, everyone be honest..." The generals around Guiziliu screamed and pulled out their sabers to press them, while Yixin looked at Shimazu Dairo without saying a word and smiled!
"It's not polite to come back and not reciprocate. If you want to get something from me, you have to pay a price... I have also come into contact with some of you Fuso people. They all know how to exchange. Why don't you understand this?"
Shimazu Dalang's face changed slightly, "Everyone, please be quiet...the armor film is not listed in the top secret technology list. This is not a very secret thing..."
"You... Shimazu! You really want to betray the interests of the Chinese people, you want to betray the head of state?" Someone behind him jumped up and wanted to beat Shimazu, but the Manchu guards on both sides rushed forward and suppressed him.
"It's not like betraying the head of state... I have my own thoughts! Well, since the prince wants to know this secret, there is nothing to hide, this is actually a piece of porcelain!"
"What? Porcelain pieces?" Guiziliu and the people around him all widened their eyes in disbelief.
"That's right, it's just a piece of porcelain. There's nothing strange about it..." After speaking, Shimazu took the piece of armor, picked up a stone, and smashed it down.
It didn't break once, then it didn't break again, and the third time it cracked the armor piece, but it was only cracked and not broken. How could the rubber layer, adhesive layer and linen layer be continuous? They were still stuck together. The two pieces of porcelain maintain a square appearance.
"Did you see it? The secret is actually in the adhesive layer, rubber layer and cotton and linen layer..." Shimazu Dairo used the ribs to cut along the crack, and then people saw what the cross section looked like...
"Ah! It's really broken pieces of porcelain... It's true, the two pieces of porcelain are stuck together with these things..." Everyone suddenly realized.
This technology is actually just a layer of window paper. Once you open it, there is no secret at all!
"Porcelain is hard but very brittle. Once hit by a bullet, it will break into thousands of pieces. To solve this brittleness problem, we need to use rubber, cotton, linen, and adhesive layers to buffer it!"
"When the bullet hits the armor piece, the rigid porcelain pieces can block the bullet from entering the flesh, and these elastic layers can also provide buffering, allowing the force of a point to be averaged on one piece..."
"This is the principle of pressure and pressure that Sir Newton said! Finally, these adhesive layers can also stick to broken porcelain pieces to prevent them from hurting people!"
"In general, this kind of armor can save your life, but it doesn't guarantee that you won't be in pain... It will still hurt when the bullet hits you, and the impact will knock you over without any problem... But he is immortal!"
"Furthermore, these armor pieces are modular and the cost is very low. If you break one piece into pieces and replace it after the war... the chance of people's survival by protecting the vital points will increase!"
"You have a steel helmet on your head, and armor plates on your body's vital points. Unless the unlucky guy is shot directly in the throat, face, or arteries of his limbs... Of course, if you don't carry it even slightly, I'm afraid even the gods can't protect you!"
The mystery was solved at once. While people lamented the simplicity and practicality of this thing, they also felt an inexplicable fear in their hearts!
Guiziliu looked at this simple thing over and over and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice, "Is it that simple? It's that simple... But it's such a simple thing, why can't we think of it?"
"Why did Xiao Letian and others think of it? What's scary is not the piece of porcelain, but the way they think about the problem!"
"Damn it...why are all the talented people in the world going to him?"
Shimazu Dairo took out all the remaining armor pieces from his uniform, and ordered other brothers to also take out armor pieces and put a lot of them on the straw mat!
"The prince naturally has a skilled tailor by his side. Whether it is silk, cotton, linen or leather, he can sew a vest with these armor pieces and wear it closely..."
"The hidden pockets can be opened at any time and these armor pieces can be replaced at any time! These sweaty vests on our bodies will not be given to the prince!"
Yi Xin let out a long sigh, "Go ahead. I allow you to hire a thousand people from among the victims to help you collect the bodies. Zaichun has plenty of money. Just ask him to reimburse the expenses!"
"In seven days, you only have seven days to collect the bones... During these seven days, all civilians carrying Amitabha flags can freely enter and leave the battlefield, and we will not stop them!"
"Shimazu Dairo! You'd better give your Chinese people a message... We should stay less involved in the affairs of the Qing Dynasty in the future! Otherwise, we will get burned!"
"I will ask the European countries to intervene in the armored train matter! It's not like there is no place in the world where there is no reason! Do you really think you dominate the world?"
Yixin said a few harsh words, then turned and walked away, leaving the twelve Fusang warriors standing in front of the battle array!
