Liu Feng was a little dissatisfied when he heard Zha Xiong's estimation of the work efficiency of the iron shop, in fact, the craftsmen already had the signs of an assembly line, but it was not systematically enforced, so the craftsmen still led the apprentices to fight separately and could not achieve higher work efficiency.

Today's Liujiabao two battalions of firing craftsmen have been restructured by Liu Feng, officially stepping into the door of the assembly line, and he divides the craftsmen into five levels according to the level of apprentice junior intermediate and senior masters, and their corresponding treatment is also different.

Master-level craftsmen, no one in Liujiabao can reach this level for the time being, and senior craftsmen require more than three special craft techniques to pass the assessment, and their treatment is the same level as the captain of the Tiger Guard, and we will also have a certain right to speak in the fort.

Liu Feng also deliberately stipulated that all craftsmen who donated their exclusive skills would receive a one-time bounty or withdraw silver taels according to the degree of contribution, or according to the number of production tools using this skill, which was to comfort those old-fashioned craftsmen who kept their skills into the coffin, and also to stimulate the craftsmen's enthusiasm for research and development.

When observing the work of the blacksmith shop in the Qiang camp, Liu Feng found that the Qiang camp is still the old production method, and if it is not restructured, Liu Feng's plan to build a series of weapons may not be completed until three years later. And what Liu Feng lacks the most is time, he can't wait for every craftsman to be a senior craftsman, who can make more sophisticated weapons in a shorter time.

However, the current production mode, if you want to expand the scale of production, it is very difficult, not to mention that this production mode will drown out many outstanding technologies, so Liu Feng observed the blacksmith shop in the Qiang camp and suggested that a new military battalion should be built on the bank of the Xianghe Mountain Creek, which will be operated separately from the blacksmith shop in the Qiang camp, mainly to make weapons and develop weapons, and Zamul is mainly responsible for it.

Most of the craftsmen who returned to the Qiang camp with Liu Feng still hoped that such a system could be implemented in the Qiang camp.

Liu Feng said to the craftsmen around him with a somewhat serious expression: "The Qiang knife can be roughly divided into five parts, casting, forging, quenching, opening and acceptance, I hope you treat each link, if there is a defective product, or a problematic Qiang knife, I want to see the scimitar red!" ”

After sweeping around with a stern expression, Liu Feng continued: "Of course, after the implementation of the method of the production line production team, it is more work and more rewards, as long as you have the strength and are willing to learn, the good days are still ahead!" ”

A group of craftsmen responded in an uproar: "I am willing to listen to the orders of the commander!" ”

Zamul was a little dazed, he knew that Liu Feng observed in the blacksmith shop of the Qiang camp, and was dissatisfied, so he set up a military camp on the bank of the mountain stream, and he was in charge, which was also a bit of a clear distinction between public and private, and did not take advantage of his Qiang camp too much, in fact, he was in charge, or it was better to say that he learned from the military camp, and all the operations of the military camp were carefully arranged and explained to him.

And at this moment, when the craftsmen were ecstatic when they heard that the method of production with flowing water was also used in the military camp, they had to reflect on it, the Qiang camp has always been very good to the craftsmen, there is no deduction of money and food, how can the craftsmen who don't see it be so grateful to Dade.

When he was struggling in his heart, he only heard Liu Feng ask, "Is there anything else on the iron furnace?" ”

There are many kilns in Xiangheshan, but there is no iron mine, and most of the iron or pig iron in Qiangying is trafficked from Pengcheng in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and this is also the place where Liu Feng relies on Qiangying, and he currently does not have a very good channel for the purchase of iron and stone. The Qiang camp has its own way and has been in business for several years, and the Qiang camp has its own iron-making clay furnace, which smelts the pig iron trafficked in again in order to achieve high quality, and the best weapons are also trafficked to Pengcheng for sale.

"Iron and iron are abundant." Zamul affirmed

"Tomorrow will open the furnace to make iron, ten days or so is estimated to be able to refine 500 catties of pig iron, but our iron and stone wool iron is expected to be enough to refine about 3,000 catties, if a large amount of iron is used, I am afraid that we have to prepare early!" Zamul thought for a moment and then continued,

Liu Feng muttered: "This matter, I hope Uncle Shi will bother more, if there are any difficulties, we must communicate with the fort in advance, we will solve it in time, we must not let the iron stone lack a mouth, we have to deal with the wolf rider, we need to be a competent guy in our hands!" ”

"No problem! As long as there is money, these are easy to do, and the iron and stone on the Pengcheng side are enough to supply us. Zamul patted his chest and said

Liu Feng knew that if the weapon resources were in the hands of others, there would be problems after all, but at the moment, the range he could control was only within a radius of 200 miles, and he could only take one step at a time. He went to the iron furnace to observe and put forward some suggestions on raising the furnace temperature, but ironmaking and steelmaking are not only about increasing the furnace temperature, but also about controlling the carbon content in the iron. This Liu Feng's eyes were black. For the time being, there is no way to greatly improve the quality of iron, and it can only improve the efficiency of ironmaking.

"Then start work with all your might, first make three-edged spear heads, Qiang knives and arrow clusters, etc. In a few days, we will find a way to make some iron shields, and the Tiger Guards will need some sword and shield hands! Liu Feng arranged,

"Yes! That's it! Zamul quickly arranged for the people to get to work, and everyone knew in their hearts what they were going to face in a few months.

For a while, the craftsmen gathered dispersed, and the crisp sound of striking iron sounded in the barracks.

He sighed, no armor is a tricky thing for him at the moment, the number of armor in the entire Tiger Guard Army is only three hundred, and the rest are wearing military uniforms issued in the fort, although they are neat and well, they have no protection ability at all. You must know that in the cold weapon war, having a strong armor is equivalent to adding a guarantee to the lives of the soldiers, and it can also stimulate their fierce momentum in battle.

The current Tiger Guard, if there is really armor, the combat effectiveness will increase exponentially, but unfortunately, the conditions do not allow, Liu Feng secretly encouraged himself to equip the Tiger Guard with a quarter of the armor before the wolf rider came.

Armor training, weapon supply, treatment, warfare, etc., how can you improve the combat effectiveness of the Tiger Guards? Liu Feng secretly thought to himself, at this moment, he hoped that someone could come to solve his doubts.

But the reality is cruel, at least Liu Feng has not encountered it yet, he can clear the fog of the current troubled times, and the characters in one direction, perhaps the current Liu Jiabao, in the eyes of many forces, is just a local tyrant in the countryside, and he can't get on the stage.

Shaking his head, he controlled himself not to think about these distant things for the time being, and suddenly remembered that he had forgotten one thing and formed a medical battalion. Yes, the formation of a medical battalion can improve the survivability of soldiers to a certain extent, and in a different way, it will also increase combat effectiveness.
