"The armor has been finished!"

A gray-bearded imperial guard tightened his belt tightly, then quickly tied a slip knot, and finally shouted.

Wu Haogu, who had already put on his own black paint and lying on the character "Shuishan Jia", looked at his brother who had just put on a piece of brown paint and lying on the character "Shuishan Jia".

Wu Haowensheng looks like a white-faced scholar who is quite pleased with girls. He doesn't look like Wu Haogu has insisted on "fitness" for several years. He has been a little bit, and he has started to grow his beard, which looks quite majestic. He still has the slender figure that is not much stronger than bean sprouts, and he has a delicate face that is comparable to girls. He is white and tender, and has no beard. Now he is wearing a leather armor that originally belonged to Wu Haogu, and he looks a bit like a sissy general who travels through time in later TV series.

"Not good, it's not a proper person..." Wu Chengzhi looked at his neatly dressed young son and frowned slightly, "Erlang is a civil servant, how can he wear armor and swords? Will he be impeached by the censor to lose his etiquette?"

"Master, I think my second brother is so good, majestic, like a general. And my second brother is an order today as a military officer, so how can he not wear armor?"

The martial arts and good-written words in Feng Erniang's eyes are always perfect. Even though he is a sissy general, he is also majestic in her eyes.

"Erlang, let's take a few steps."

Wu Haogu smiled and asked Wu Haowen to take a few steps. Although his two armors were leathery, they were still quite large.

Cowhide is not as strong as iron. If you want to obtain better defense, you have to thicken it. If you don’t have enough leather, you have two layers. If you don’t have enough leather, you have three layers. Moreover, one or two pieces of linen armor are usually lined with a leather armor, which is sewn together with more than a dozen layers of linen cloth. The hardness is similar to a sole plate. The so-called three layers of clothing are a layer of leather armor or armor, and two layers of cloth armor are added inside. Within the scope of economic conditions and strength, people will adopt a layer of leather armor, a layer of cloth armor and a layer of chain mail.

Today, Wu Haowen only wore a thick layer of leather armor, but this armor still weighed twenty or thirty pounds, and it was not light, and it seemed to be able to bear it.

After trying to walk a few steps, Wu Haowen laughed, "It's okay! Big brother, you're not as tired as you said."

Wu Haogu just smiled: "How long has it been? You will know it's amazing after wearing it all day... Marrying in armor sometimes makes people exhausted!"

"March in armor?" Wu Haowen was a little surprised, "Why don't you marching without armor?"

"Removing the armor?" Wu Haogu smiled, "Then you need to have cavalry to protect the armor... If there are enemies who are far away from each other, and if they are not taken away at night, there will be light cavalry harassment from time to time, our infantry will have to wear armor so that we can meet the battle at any time."

"There is something like this?"

Wu Haogu smiled and handed a helmet to his brother, "Of course, why would you have to take the exam today's military exercises to wear three-element armor, carry strong bows and arrows, hold long spears, crowns and helmets, and knives, win three-day food, and go a hundred miles a day?"

Putting his helmet on his head, Wu Haogu smiled and said to his younger brother: "Erlang, if you can't do it, just change into the official uniform, don't be tired if you leave halfway."

"No," Wu Haowen gritted his teeth, "If you can't bear this little hardship, can you still go to Hehuang to make achievements?"

"Good!" Wu Haogu nodded in admiration, and then said to Wu Chengzhi and Feng Erniang, "Sir, Xiao Niang, Erlang and I will leave first."

Wu Chengzhi replied: "Be careful on the road and look at the second brother."

"Save it."

As Wu Haogu said that, he clasped his fists at the two of them, and then turned around and waved out of the door with his younger brother Wu Haowen.

Outside the Wu family's mansion, two strong horses, one tall and one short, were ready long ago, and Wu Chengjiu and another Wu family's horse were led by Wu Chengjiu.

The tallest one is a sage horse, one of the four first-generation hippos brought back from Jiehe Market by Wu Haogu. Wu Haogu rode himself. The shortest one is for Wu Haowen, a gentle and well-behaved little mare, who has always been for Wu Haowen to ride into the palace to tell stories.

The two brothers got on the horse, and under the escort of several followers, they went to Xuande Gate with great confidence.

There were already five big and three thick men standing on the square outside Xuande Gate. Each man was wearing a pile of armor in front of him, all of which were heavy armor, which were specially made for this imperial martial arts performance. The materials used for the armor were so exquisite, but the weight was not bad at all. A pair of iron armor, including a helmet, weighed more than 53 kilograms!

On both sides of these armor are placed with bows, straight knives, long spears that need to be carried by the fierce men, as well as the so-called "three-day food" and a large bag of cold water.

A thousand old imperial guards from Kaifeng Prefecture carried the big throne. Under the supervision of some small military officers, the weight of the armor and the "Three-day Grain" should not be less than 53 kilograms, and the three-day grain should be 12 kilograms, and the two should be at least 65 kilograms. In addition, long spears, straight knives, bows and arrows must be checked one by one. Only after the completion can two people be grouped together and help each other wear armor.

Wu Erlang is not a sissy Wu Erlang, but a macho version of Wu Song and Wu Erlang took a few men from Yunzhou early in the morning to start from the camp outside the Qionglin Palace and enter the city with great courage.

Because today is the sixth day of the first lunar month and it is still during the New Year, the streets of Kaifeng Prefecture are particularly lively, crowded with people watching the "House Slave Warriors". Everyone is not interested in the warriors. According to the popular aesthetics of Kaifeng Prefecture, a bearded scholar like Su Dongpo is a handsome man. A fierce man is not popular, but a warrior who is a house slave is different!

Kaifeng Prefecture has the highest housing price in the world! For ordinary people without houses, a house is absolutely difficult to find! And it is unattainable!

Even though Kaifeng Prefecture now has several real estate businesses that specialize in building "cheap houses" such as Wanjiaxing, Polystore, and Luguiyuanxing, there are gradually more projects with "Shikumen" and "Tongzilou".

However, while the supply of real estate has increased, the prices have not decreased! This is because "Shikumen" and "Tianzilou" are not only simply increasing the supply, but also developing the market. They have attracted lower-level officials and small and medium-sized businessmen in Beijing who are originally willing to do nothing and are small and medium-sized businessmen to the Kaifeng Prefecture real estate market...

Therefore, the housing prices in Kaifeng Mansion are still high now, and there is a trend of rising steadily.

Now the official family has actually taken out an unattainable house to reward the fierce man who has won the martial arts success in the imperial court. In the eyes of the literary scholars with a good reputation, this is indeed a great shame, but the young citizens of Kaifeng Prefecture do not care about this?

These tough guys have become house slaves by their ability... Moreover, this imperial martial arts performance is not the first time this time, and they will do it in the future! If you want to participate, there is no threshold. As long as you have the strength, you can just have the strength. Even if you don’t have enough strength now, you will try harder and become a sturdy man in the official family!

Seeing the fierce men dressed in neatly, carrying long spears, carrying bows and arrows, and having long swords hanging on their belts, they were really majestic, Zhao Ji, the official standing on Xuande Tower, was a little excited.

"Okay! OK! It's really an elite!"

Before the people below started running, the Zhao family had already praised it repeatedly. In fact, such martial arts school reviews were held, and Kaifeng's imperial guards were always holding it. But in the past, they were pretending, but they did not go to the top of the world, and the soldiers who participated in the martial arts were not distinguished from each other, and there were no house slaves to be...

No matter how good or bad it is, there is no house as a prize, and there is no war for a long time. Who has the motivation to fight?

Without motivation, let's get along with each other! The routine martial arts reviews are perfunctory, and the superiors are forced to do anything, so they simply make fraud. Before the imperial martial arts performance began, the craftsmen of the military weapon surveillance had not created excessive Fiery Armor for many years! The armor worn on the so-called elite imperial guards for the government to visit were all cut corners, but they looked quite similar.

This time, in order to raise armor for the men from all over the world who participated in the martial arts performance, the craftsmen in the military weapon supervision complained for a long time. However, under Zhao Ji's strict order, they finally took out thousands of armors with enough weight. What's the defense ability of these armors is different, but there is definitely no shortage of weight!

There are always more than 80 kilograms (and Song jin) in weight, which has been added to Wu Erlang's strong body. This is almost a burden to carry someone, and it will take a hundred miles a day, and it is not easy!

Moreover, the journey of a hundred miles is just the beginning. Those who can run within six hours have only obtained the qualification to become a man in front of the imperial court, but the house slave still has not done it.

If you want to be a house slave, you have to take the archery test again! And you will take the exam immediately after running 100 miles! Use the bamboo and wood longbows provided by the men to shoot a target a hundred steps away. This project becomes the "long pile" and is a martial arts event in the Tang Dynasty. The Song Dynasty will not take the exam... Most of the time in the Northern Song Dynasty, those who do not need to hit the target will not know what it is for shooting? But if a strong man wants to be a house slave, the long pile must hit the target! Twenty arrows in a row, and the ranking will be determined based on the number of targets they hit.

The top 10 people directly reward the house, from 11th to 200th, you can buy the house with discounts and additional installments... If the number of people who are in the twenty arrows exceeds ten, then the third assessment must be conducted, fighting in front of the imperial court! Fight with sword (wooden sword) shield to determine the top ten!

Wu Haogu was already with Wang Hou at this time, riding a tall horse with his helmet and armor, and appeared in the square outside Xuande Gate with a few strong knights. Their mission today is to lead the way and referee the 100-mile hiking and marching route, not straight, but to circle the city half a circle, and then follow an official road that had been martial law, straight to Moutuogang outside the city.

Wu Haowen will accompany the official Zhao Ji as an explanation throughout the whole process. After the fierce men, Zhao Ji will also lead a few important officials and a group of envoys to Mutuogang under the escort of his imperial knights.
