Chapter 9 Clothes Make a Man
The men took a bath very quickly, and it only took more than ten minutes. When Zhang Tie, who was completely refreshed and wearing shiny sheepskin boots, reappeared in front of Second Lieutenant Wei Xi, everyone was stunned, let alone Wei Xi. Staff Officer Xi and others, even Zhang Tie, when they looked at their current image in front of the mirror in the bathroom, couldn't believe that the whole person in the mirror in front of them looked heroic but concealedly handsome. The beautiful boy turned out to be himself.
The boy in the mirror has fair and delicate skin, soft and handsome features but sharp edges and corners, and a head of black hair that is smooth and smooth, fully showing the nutrition and youthful vigor of the owner. Although the boy is not very tall, his figure is not majestic either. But it is very well-proportioned, and all the lines and proportions have the youthful and perfect characteristics of young people. The young man's face is very young, but under that young face, there is an indifferent and indifferent temperament that ignores life and death.
To be honest, Zhang Tie hasn't looked in the mirror for a long time since the trial began. So Zhang Tie himself didn't know that after the two months of trials were completed, after eating a lot of fruit without leakage, iron fetus fruit, soul robbery fruit, wild wolf Qili fruit, now he, He was completely different from the miserable green boy a few months ago. From the inside to the outside, he began to reveal an extremely restrained, indifferent and gorgeous temperament.
Especially after wearing the very good dark red uniform of the Norman Empire lieutenant's uniform and Zhang Tie's lifelong pair of boots, Zhang Tie's whole body, like a polished gem, is even more glamorous. .
To be honest, when Zhang Tie saw his image in the mirror, the first thought that came to his mind was not joy. It was jealousy. After realizing that the image he was jealous of was actually himself, Zhang Tie's heart was filled with joy.
Zhang Tie narcissistically turned around in front of the mirror and took pictures for at least two minutes, and then finally confirmed that the guy in the mirror looked good. It was himself——Zhang Tie made a face at himself in the mirror, and then walked out of the bathroom.
Ever since Zhang Tie came out of the bathhouse after dressing up, the soldiers of the Norman Empire in dark red military uniforms on the road had all looked sideways. When the three guys were smoking and chatting, their eyes widened for a moment. With his mouth open, he couldn't speak, and the cigarette in Staff Weixi's hand dropped to the ground. No one could combine the slovenly green image of Zhang Tie when he came just now with the heroic and beautiful young second lieutenant in front of him. .
"Are you... Zhang Tie?" Staff Officer Weixi asked with some uncertainty.
"I also found that I look very handsome in the military uniform. This military uniform looks like it was custom-made for me. Don't be jealous!" Zhang Tie returned to his cheerful appearance.
There was a glint in Weixi's eyes, and he didn't know what to think. Calvin next to him ran over excitedly. The pack of collar badges in my hand,
The epaulettes and badges were fastened to Zhang Tie's military uniform, and then the lieutenant's military cap was brought. After the cap badge was fastened, Zhang Tie put it on, and then brought the belt for Zhang Tie to tie around his waist. Get it down like this. Zhang Tie feels as if he has stepped out of a painting, even more dazzling.
Calvin laughed recklessly, "Boy, I feel the most fulfilled today since I started this errand."
"Colonel Leibniz's vision is indeed very unique!" The officer in the logistics department gave Wei Xi a little praise from the bottom of his heart after taking a few serious glances at Zhang Tie. "This man is born to wear military uniforms. I have never seen anyone who wears imperial military uniforms as well as he does..."
Originally, the officer in the logistics department just had a business-like face, but now, the officer's attitude towards Zhang Tie is a little more enthusiastic, perhaps as Calvin said. Seeing such a miserable green boy complete the gorgeous transformation process in front of him in an instant will indeed give the participants an inexplicable sense of accomplishment.
"Have you chosen your weapon?" the officer asked Zhang Tie.
"No!"
"Then we will go to the armory to pick out a handy weapon for you!"
So the four of them came to the ordnance warehouse of the logistics department.
There are generally three weapons for a lieutenant of the Norman Empire, a standard dagger and an imperial long sword, for an officer. In addition to being a weapon, the long sword is worn on some special occasions entirely out of etiquette requirements. In addition to these two weapons, there is another weapon that is determined by factors such as the unit it is in and its specific position. The third weapon is called the main battle weapon. Generally, there will be a special long spear as the main battle weapon. The officers of the Iron Horn Cavalry will choose a heavy saber or spear. Some soldiers and officers who are responsible for special tasks can even choose weapons such as machine crossbows and bows.
There is nothing to choose from the dagger and the long sword, they are all the same, but when choosing other weapons, Zhang Tie was dumbfounded.
The ordnance warehouse of the 39th Division opened Zhang Tie's eyes. The weapons there, besides many boxes of standard weapons, are all kinds of long and short cold weapons that he has never seen before. .
To the surprise of Weixi's staff, when Zhang Tie was looking at the weapons, he obviously walked past the light weapons without even looking at them, while he lingered on the large and heavy weapons. Looking at Zhang Tie's body, he doubted whether Zhang Tie could handle those things.
Finally, halfway through the huge weapon warehouse, Zhang Tie finally saw something on a weapon rack, his eyes lit up immediately, and he hurried over.
It was a set of flying spears or javelins, which were placed in a cylindrical thing more than one meter high. This thing was somewhat similar to the set of flying spears Zhang Tie used in the trial, but it was different. The first difference is that the material of this group of javelins is entirely made of metal, instead of the wooden spear body and steel spearhead used in the trial. The second difference is in the shape, the tip of the flying spear used in the trial is sharp, like a needle, and these things here. The triangular thorn-shaped spearheads looked even more murderous and bigger. Zhang Tie took out one and weighed it in his hand. The weight of a single spear was at least about 13 kilograms, and the length was longer than the previous flying spears. It was nearly ten centimeters or so. It feels more handy.
For Zhang Tie now, holding those flying spears in the past is almost like holding a straw in his hands. Those flying spears that are too light can no longer adapt to his current strength, allowing him to exert his greatest combat power. strength. The spear bodies of these javelins and flying spears are also constructed using the principle of aerodynamics that Peter said, with one section thick and the other thin. But the connection between the thick and thin feels smoother and more coherent, and there is a sense of rhythm in the hand. There are also some fine anti-slip patterns on the part of the spear body that is held by hand.
In a word, if we compare the flying spears in the past to Zhang Tie in the past, then the flying spears we see now. It is the current Zhang Tie, the latter is so much better than the former, it is simply incomparable.
"Are these things a set?" Zhang Tie said, pointing to the cylindrical thing. The spear barrel with the flying spear is dozens of times better than the one used before in terms of shape, workmanship, and material.
"Yes, these things are a set, but..."
"Can't I choose?" Zhang Tie asked immediately.
"No. To be precise, these things are not used to equip individuals, but to equip Ironhorn Beast Cavalry. A few years ago, the Imperial Weapons and Equipment Department manufactured this thing and trial-produced some for trying to equip Ironhorn Beast Cavalry. , I want to see the power of the ironhorn cavalry using javelins, but after getting the troops, the effect is not very good..."
"Why, I think this is very good from the west?"
"The cavalry of the Iron Horned Legion first thought that this thing was too heavy. Equipping it on the Iron Horned Beast would affect the speed and endurance of the Iron Horned Beast, and also affect their flexibility. The second is to let this javelin exert its power. .Only when covering throwing, and the distance can not be too far, the requirements for the personal strength of the cavalry are too high, if the number is small, this kind of thing is difficult to threaten the enemy, so the accuracy of throwing this thing must be practiced well .It is much more difficult than using bows and arrows or machine crossbows. If you have to choose a throwing weapon, most Ironhorn cavalry will choose the flying axes instead of this kind of javelins. So after a period of trial, because The army didn't respond very well to this thing, so the plan to equip the ironhorn cavalry with this thing was abandoned. Now there are not many such things left in the warehouse, and they are all left over from a few years ago. Basically no one wants it anymore!" The officer in the logistics department patiently explained.
"Well, I want this!" Zhang Tie said, and picked up the standard equipment with twelve javelins with one hand. Zhang Tie didn't know that such a simple action of his would make the people next to him There are a total of nine javelins in this javelin rucksack, and each javelin weighs 12.6 kilograms, plus the weight of the javelin rucksack made of aluminum alloy, steel wire and leather, the total weight Already around 120 kg, many people find it difficult to lift him with two hands, but this young man picked him up with one hand. This power is too amazing.
But Zhang Tie didn't really feel much. After eating the nine wild wolf seven power fruits, Zhang Tie already had the power of nine wolves on his body. To more than ten kilograms, is this heavy for a wild wolf? What's more, Zhang Tie now has the strength of a fourth-level soldier. Holding this thing in his hand, Zhang Tie only feels a little heavy in his hand, but he doesn't feel it is difficult.
Staff officer Weixi and the logistics officer glanced at each other, and both sides saw deep surprise in each other's eyes.
Colonel Leibniz personally recruited the youngest lieutenant of the entire division to enter the Iron Blood Battalion of the division. When he was on the body, the officer in the logistics department immediately realized that the young man in front of him might make a fortune in the future, and it was definitely worth his investment.
"Strictly speaking, these flying spears are the same as arrows. They are consumable items, not the main battle weapons. I decide to give you this set of equipment..." The tone of the logistics officer became more gentle, " Your strength seems to be very strong, maybe you can try another special item of the lieutenant level that no one here has used..."
Zhang Tie's curiosity was instantly aroused...
