When An Xinggui entered the Public Security Department, all the members of the Public Security Department who were currently without tasks had already gathered on the school grounds. An Xinggui naturally came here, but he saw the person in charge of the Public Security Department here on the periphery. A lieutenant in the Imperial Army of the Tang Dynasty.
"My subordinate Wang Huan has met Duke Liang." Wang Huan, the director of Dunhuang County Public Security Department, hurriedly saluted An Xinggui. He was considered to be An Xinggui's soldier before. An Xinggui was rewarded at the beginning of the eleventh year of Zhenguan. , the title was also promoted from Rong Guogong to Liang Guogong.
"Director Wang, you're welcome. I heard that Director Wang was changing his armor here, so I just came over to take a look." An Xinggui smiled and said hello to the other party. Although the other party was his subordinate before, he is not now.
"Please, Duke Liang." Wang Huan immediately took An Xinggui to the location of the school.
After they came over, An Xinggui could already see the dense armors neatly placed there. Seeing these bright armors, An Xinggui was a little speechless. This is the equipment of the security officers of the Public Security Department. ?
Approximately as shown in the picture.
The protection for legs etc. is larger than this.
An Xinggui is really a little confused. These armors are different from the Mingguang armor and other armors in the Tang Dynasty. They are typical pierced armors, all made of long strips of armor, with inner Lined with tanned leather, the protective area of the entire armor is lower than that of the Mingguang Armor, and it does not have the two large breast protectors on the chest of the Mingguang Armor.
There are separate armor straps on the forearms and calves, and the thighs above the knees are protected by skirt armor.
Although its protective area has been reduced, it is more flexible and lighter. Its protection is actually sufficient for hunting in the city.
An Xinggui knows the role of the Department of Public Security. They just solve cases, arrest some criminals, manage some gangsters, etc. But you give them this armor?
Before changing the armor, what kind of armor did the Department of Public Security use? In fact, it was the armor that the former soldiers had replaced, and it was leather armor.
The armor wearing rate in the Tang Dynasty is very high, but the armor wearing rate does not all refer to Mingguang armor. Although His Highness has improved the iron smelting and armor making technology, Longyou Road has not completely rotated it, and some scouts are still wearing leather. Where is A.
Now...the Department of Public Security has actually arranged such a good armor?
This armor may not be as good as the Mingguang Armor in the Tang Dynasty, but if this thing... is placed in other surrounding countries, it can already be used as a heavy armor.
And the Tang knives next to them. An Xinggui took out these identical Tang knives and tested them briefly. He found out that they were all Tang knives made of fine steel.
More importantly, An Xinggui also saw many exquisite hand crossbows. And the boxes of crossbow arrows piled up.
This amount... An Xinggui doesn't know how to describe it. To be honest, he never knew that Datang is so rich now? It is understandable that the local security forces are equipped with crossbows, but the number of these crossbows... has far exceeded An Xinggui's imagination.
In fact, what An Xinggui doesn't know is that in Li Ke's factory, it is actually easier and more convenient to make crossbow arrows than bow and arrow arrows. After all, the tail feathers of bows and arrows are made of feathers. If not properly protected, it will affect the accuracy of the bow and arrow.
But the arrow of the crossbow does not matter. You only need to use a machine tool to correct the arrow shaft, and then screw the arrow directly on.
"How many costumes are there for this time?" An Xinggui asked curiously.
"There are a total of 4,000 sets of armor, weapons, 2,000 sets of hand crossbows, boots and clothing, and 4,000 sets of internal clothing. Two sets will be distributed to each person in rotation. In the autumn and winter, new clothes and cotton clothes will be distributed. 30,000 crossbows, 500 shields, In addition, there will be one hundred war horses." Wang Huan replied immediately.
"You mean... there are more armored crossbows and a set of these for each person?" An Xinggui was really shocked, because An Xinggui is now under the management of the military department, so he has no administrative position in Longyou Road He has already resigned, so he doesn't know about these things.
"Yes." Wang Huan said decisively.
"Is the entire Longyou Road like this?" Lord Anxing was confused.
"According to the order I received, the Ministry of Public Security is located on Longyou Road, with a total of 52,230 members of the security force changing uniforms." Wang Huan said quickly.
An Xinggui: "..."
You told me this is the local security force? This thing... is even more outrageous than the city defense army where the government soldiers were stationed before! Although this armor does not seem to have as large a protective area as the Mingguang Armor, it is already perverted enough! How many Mingguang armors are there? But this thing... fifty thousand!
"Are these armor pieces iron armor or not?" An Xinggui asked again. He knew that the armor the soldiers had to change into was said to be steel armor.
"Steel armor." Wang Huan was a little excited. This equipment... When he was a soldier in the army, to be honest, even a captain like him couldn't wear this armor.
No, not to mention him as a captain, not even a general. Although the general has Mingguang armor, what if it is an iron plate, but the armor plate of this thing is made of fine steel!
An Xinggui's spirit was somewhat dazed. To be honest, Longyou Road was adjacent to Xizhou. In fact, An Xinggui thought he knew His Highness well enough. An Xinggui knew the equipment of Xizhou's army, but An Xinggui had always known it. It is believed that most of the armor of the Xizhou army is iron armor, and a small part has been replaced with steel armor.
But now... they are all steel armor!
How much refined steel has your Highness refined? Were these developed by those craftsmen?
An Xinggui suddenly understood why His Highness wanted to knight those craftsmen. It was nothing to be able to study these craftsmen and knight them! This needs to be paid for!
At this point, he suddenly felt... it seemed a bit extravagant to dispatch a total of 50,000 troops this time. Because it’s completely unnecessary!
Even the security army has this equipment, and An Xinggui is no longer worried about the equipment of the external combat troops.
It is said that their army also needs to replace equipment in Yiwu City, and the logistics have actually sent the things there. To be honest, An Xinggui really feels that it is outrageous.
Although it is said that the troops and horses have not moved, and the food and grass go first, you actually ran to the front with this food and grass... and you even transported the weapons and armor. I really don't know how your highness did it.
"Then the security of Dunhuang County will be left to you." An Xinggui reached out and patted Wang Huan on the shoulder.
"Yes! Please don't worry, Duke Liang." Wang Huan said seriously.
"Your Majesty and His Highness should rest assured." An Xinggui shook his head.
"My words are inappropriate. Your Highness has given me such an important task. I should protect the safety of this city." Wang Huan said excitedly.
"Do a good job." An Xinggui smiled and then left. To be honest, An Xinggui felt a little emotional after leaving here. Hu Guogong has made a lot of money this time!
