Forcing me to keep vigil for your childhood sweetheart? Then I'll leave you.

"Of course I have a way."

"I know quite a bit."

Lin Yi's face was very relaxed. "I'm here supervising anyway. I have nothing to do anyway, so I might as well prepare something for them."

After hearing this, Prince Qing remained skeptical.

However, if Lin Yi can really produce something good, that would be a good thing.

"Somebody come!"

Prince Qing immediately spoke up and prepared a separate military tent for Lin Yi.

The four treasures of the study were all prepared inside, and even blank pages of books and papers were piled up like a small mountain.

"Good work!"

After saying that, Prince Qing watched Lin Yi enter the tent, then turned around and went back to "supervise" Yang Jian and Huang Chang.

Lin Yi began to design equipment in a quiet environment.

First of all, armor. As the saying goes, the thickest armor protects you from the most severe blows. Armor needs to provide adequate protection while also being lightweight...

Thinking of this, Lin Yi's thoughts turned to weapons. He needed to be able to fight both at close range and at long range. He could use a bow and crossbow at long range, and he could also fight with swords and knives at close range...

Then there are some additional equipment, such as hooks and shovels that can be used as tools...

After several days of hard work day and night, Lin Yi finally designed the equipment for an entire elite soldier.

And these past few days, he has become unkempt.

"All right!"

Lin Yi scratched his greasy head and walked out with a pile of papers.

Prince Qing immediately brought Yang Jian and Huang Chang over.

Although it was night, they were all quite curious about Lin Yi's design.

What kind of designs can he come up with?

In the military meeting camp.

Prince Qing ordered all the deputy generals to leave, leaving only Lin Yi, Yang Jian and Huang Chang.

"Lin Yi, you can start now."

As he said this, Lin Yi began to introduce the soldiers' equipment.

First up, the armor.

The outermost layer is a thin double layer of iron armor, and the middle layer uses the method of the basalt chariot, adding some "brackets" and woolen cloth scraps.

The outermost layer of armor only covers the chest, and will be placed under the culottes.

The inner layer is then matched with a chain mail to further protect against swords and arrows.

The innermost layer has a fine mesh lining as the final protection.

Of course, Lin Yi also designed shoulder armor and arm guards.

“Will this be too heavy?”

Seeing this design, Prince Qing frowned slightly.

You know, flexibility is important.

"It won't be heavy. The armor is thin."

Lin Yi continued to explain.

In addition to the helmet, there is also a mask to provide maximum protection for the head and neck.

Next comes the weapon, a knife with a blade on one side and serrations on the other.

This is the last weapon for close combat, so the knife is only one and a half feet long.

There is a rope at the end of the handle for fixing, which is multi-purpose.

The long weapon is a crescent-shaped sword that can be used for both chopping and stabbing.

At long distances, soldiers will also carry bows and arrows to fight at long distances!

Seeing this, Prince Qing was already overwhelmed with emotion.

If it can really be designed, combined with the training of Yang Jian and Huang Chang, it may really become an iron army!

It's not just Prince Qing.

Yang Jian and Huang Chang were also very excited.

Even the Yan State had never seen such soldiers and such equipment!

The State of Yan advocated the use of force, but it did not have so many "preparations" in terms of equipment.

Most soldiers could go into battle and kill the enemy with just a sword, a shield or a spear.

He fought with all his might, relying on his bravery.

But after Lin Yi's introduction, such a fully armed soldier, coupled with the Yan State's training methods...

It’s no exaggeration to say that one can definitely defeat a hundred!

"Why don't you make a set first and show it to me."

Lin Yi saw that their expressions seemed not right and he misunderstood their meaning, so he suggested that the craftsmen make a set first to see the effect.

"Do!"

"Do one set as quickly as possible!"

Prince Qing was a little impatient.

He really wants to see what the actual effect of such equipment will be!

Lin Yi took the design drawings to the blacksmith shop in the military camp.

These respected blacksmiths have long been familiar with Lin Yi and know what Lin Yi's requirements are.

They spontaneously began to divide the work, and in just two hours, they had made all the iron-related items. Adding some tailoring work, it only took them two and a half hours to make the initial set of equipment.

The armor and weapons were still warm, so Prince Qing, Yang Jian, and Huang Chang couldn't wait to go to the blacksmith shop.

Seeing that the equipment was already finished, the excitement in my heart was even more difficult to suppress.

Immediately, Prince Qing took action himself.

Although it takes a little longer to put it on, I don’t feel that my movements are affected much after putting it on.

Running and turning, it's almost like he's not wearing any armor!

There is no problem in wielding swords and knives.

The small round shield on the back is also easy to hold.

Overall, this is an excellent piece of equipment.

Yang Jian and Huang Chang couldn't wait to try it out. At this moment, they were already a little envious of Dayong.

The army can have such luxurious equipment design!

"There's one last step."

Seeing how excited they were, and that they were almost done trying on the clothes, Lin Yi began to remind them, "We need to see how strong it is."

As he spoke, the armors were placed on wooden dummies for testing.

Under the frenzied "attacks" of swords, spears, halberds, bows and crossbows, the outer armor had been completely chopped to pieces.

However, the chain mail and lining inside are intact!

Even the damaged outer armor can still provide some cushioning due to some structural protection...

Lin Yi made some modifications based on these results, and this set of equipment began assembly line production.

In less than half a month, one hundred sets were produced.

After the one hundred soldiers put on their armor, they began more rigorous training.

In addition to physical fitness, they also need to practice archery, grappling with the wall and other skills.

Although Lin Yi was a little annoyed, he had no choice but to stay here and "supervise" because of his promise to Huangfu Qingling and other officials.

A month after being fully equipped, these soldiers have reached a new level of training.

And the guidance from Yang Jian and Huang Chang basically ended here.

"Although I'm a little reluctant, this is the rule."

At the gate of the military camp, Yang Jian and Huang Chang looked at Prince Qing with a smile.

"I am very grateful to you."

"If the five-year period is up, I welcome you to join my army!"

Prince Qing nodded slightly, his face full of approval for Yang Jian and Huang Chang.

"How are the soldiers being trained?"

At this time, Huangfu Qingling came.

Although he had a smile on his face, there was a hint of nervousness and uneasiness in his eyes.

"One hundred people have been trained."

Hearing this number, Huangfu Qinling was a little angry, "One hundred people?"

What can a hundred people do?

"I tell you, the north has already issued a declaration of war!"

Huangfu Qingling frowned and said sternly, "Then the King of Yan wants to lead the army himself!"

"Your Majesty, these one hundred elite soldiers can defeat an army of thousands."

Prince Qing spoke very confidently.

"What? The Yan State is attacking again?"

Yang Jian and Huang Chang frowned, but this time they were completely on Dayong's side.

"Your Majesty, please issue a decree allowing us to march together as soldiers!"

The two men immediately knelt down.
