Chapter 103 New Equipment and New Arms!
At any rate, Luo Ji finally convinced Liu Shu. At this point in time, the other warriors in the tribe were either on duty or patrolling the perimeter and calling them back. It would take a lot of time to go back and forth. That is necessary. As for letting ordinary tribesmen try, it is really easy to get hurt, and at the same time, the effect of this circular leather shield cannot be tested.
Looking at Liu Shu who was holding a stone spear, his legs were trembling, as if he was about to go to the execution ground, Luo Ji rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, stand on your feet and keep your waist down. , the thorn is a little more powerful, otherwise how can I try the effect?"
At this moment, Liu Shu was about to cry, "Patriarch, really, I mean it, you better come with someone else! If you don't want me to take a shield, you can stab it!"
"Come on, what effect can you try with a shield? Don't forget, the patriarch, I have a wolf bone mask anyway!"
Hearing this, Liu Shu's expression was stunned. Yes, although it has developed to this point, the general battle does not require their patriarch to charge in person, but in the early days, when their tribe first wandered here, their patriarch also killed within the tribe. One of the warriors who has died of a hungry wolf and is qualified to wear the wolf bone mask.
In theory, according to his two strokes, their patriarch should be able to beat him with one hand until he can't take care of himself. However, no matter what the reasons are, Liu Shu, who has a tenacious will to survive, said, "Sure enough, let's change someone!!"
Then Luo Ji was ruthlessly dismissed...
Liu Shu, who was driven by the ducks, finally stabbed the spear in his hand towards Luo Ji's position, causing everyone in the Ordnance Department to exclaim, not because of how powerful Liu Shu's spear was. What everyone exclaimed was that Liu Shu had the courage to do it!
On the other hand, Luo Ji's whole person was much calmer, because as I said before, according to Liu Shu's two moves, even if Luo Ji was bare-handed, Liu Shu would not be able to pose much threat to him.
Seeing clearly where the stone spear was pierced, Luo Ji stepped out before the stone spear pierced in front of him, raised the circular leather shield in his hand, and took the initiative to meet him.
Afterwards, I only heard a muffled sound of 'dong', and felt the momentum from the circular leather shield. Although it could be blocked even with a hard block, Luo Ji still moved a little in order to test the design of the shield. Immediately connected to a shield counter action!
Luo Ji's sudden shock caught Liu Shu by surprise. At that time, he only felt the pain in his hands holding the stone spear. When he came back to his senses, the stone spear in his hand had already been taken by Luo Ji. The shield flew out.
Staring blankly at his hands that were still shaking, Liu Shu had no idea what happened at that moment, and the crowd nearby were also completely shocked by the strength of their patriarch at this moment.
But Luo Ji didn't care about this. After directly blocking Liu Shu's spear with his shield, he quickly checked the surface of the circular leather shield. Facing the stone spear's attack, the surface of the shield was almost intact! That layer of leather that wraps the surface definitely plays a big role.
"Hahahaha..." Thinking of this, Luo Ji, who patted the shield face, couldn't help laughing, he was really satisfied with this defensive ability, "Liu Shu, from now on, the Ordnance Department will make every effort to make this one. As for the circular leather shield, on the premise of ensuring the quality, we will make ten circular leather shields first.”
Luo Ji's order to make a circular leather shield was sudden, but luckily the structure of the circular leather shield was not complicated. Even if it was a temporary order, as long as there were enough materials to make it, Liu Shu and the others could handle it completely.
Of course, this whole process is not smooth sailing. The main trouble lies in the reform of arms within the tribe. At present, Luo Ji's arms are roughly divided into four categories: stone axe, stone spearman, archer and slinger. The appearance of the leather shield obviously had an impact on the four temporarily fixed arms, among which the Stone Spearman was the most affected.
People who have played strategy war games basically know that in most strategy war games, spearmen or spearmen are used to fight cavalry, which is the so-called arms restraint, and wait for the opposite cavalry to rush up all the way. , and then let the spearmen swing the battle, and with the momentum of the cavalry rushing over, they can deal a devastating blow to them.
But now the problem is coming. In ancient times, there were no cavalry...
Therefore, under the influence of this whole era and the natural environment, the appearance of the stone spearmen was not to fight the cavalry, but simply to increase the attack distance.
However, the advantage of the stone spearmen's attack distance was gradually lost with the emergence of stone slingers and archers, and their status in this era became more and more embarrassing. Now, the circular leather shield invented by Luo Ji can be described as A fatal blow to the Stone Spearmen.
The reason is very simple, that is, the equipment is not up, or it is not easy to use, a round leather shield in one hand, and a stone spear in the other? It's quite harmonious when I imagine it in my mind, but it's really not an ordinary twist in use.
Luo Ji also tried it out himself. The length advantage of the stone spear itself became the biggest burden when one handed a shield. It was not easy to use at all. It is conceivable what kind of lethality will be weakened if the hand is stabbed.
In this way, in the hunting team, the role of the stone spear may still be quite large, but in the current tribal army, the stone spear is already facing the fate of being eliminated.
After pondering this matter in his mind, Luo Ji suddenly decided that, except for Luo Yong and Liu Zheng, all the melee fighters in the tribe were equipped with leather armor, circular leather shields, and a one-handed stone axe to transform into shields. Axe!
Two or three days later, a team of fully-armed shield and axemen stood there neatly, and the battle looked mighty and domineering. For this ancient era, a brand-new army was officially born at this moment.
At the same time, Luo Ji, who had received two military points in succession, was acting succinctly at this time. This time, he finally upgraded the item of 'equipment production' that he had neglected several times.
After all, he can clearly feel that if they continue to develop, their tribe's requirements for the efficiency of equipment production will become higher and higher!
At the same time, with the birth of the Shield Axe, the counterattack against the Wild Bear tribe should also begin. Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in Luo Ji's eyes. In a month, it seems necessary to impress the natives of the Wild Bear Tribe!"
