Chapter 15: True Aristocrat, Old Proud [Third Update]

Could the ancients have been dumber than modern people?

That's certainly not stupid!

It's just that the ancients had less knowledge, which doesn't mean that they have no brains.

The traverser after the crossing will definitely carry the pride of the traverser.

Maybe you think you're smart.

Or maybe you see so many people who don't know and think you're smarter than them.

Then, the proud traverser was killed by the natives, without a ripple in history.

Lu Wu also has the pride of being a traverser, but he just understands that he has more knowledge than the current people, and he understands much more, but he will not look down on the ancients.

For example, Wei Xiang came twice, and it was like Cheng Ying who came later as a guest, Lu Wu knew that they would have the same insight as himself, and what a fierce man they would be.

Lü Wu's advantage lies in the fact that after systematic study, he still learns the knowledge accumulated through repeated progress for more than 2,600 years.

On the other hand, he's seen a lot of things, and he has the ability to copy them by hand.

The great man said that strategically despise the enemy and tactically value the enemy.

Lu Wu's understanding is that it is easier to succeed if you have to hypnotize yourself first, no longer be afraid, give yourself more self-confidence, find the right way, and then do something.

After deciding to start by snooping into the world with his neighbors, he steadily dispatched samurai, mainly to find out the surrounding terrain and then come back to describe it.

Pity God.

In the era of language scarcity, Lü Wu heard the description of people who came back, and the key words he often heard were "mountain" in addition to "Sichuan", and "long, short", "steep, flat" may be added in front.

Kawa means plain.

Of course, a mountain is a mountain.

Walked several miles of plains, climbed or circumnavigated several mountains, and believe it or not they couldn't describe it clearly?

As a result, he found that the more he listened, the more confused he became, and he couldn't even draw a simple map.

Actually, this is normal.

Even in modern times, without professional training, not a person can observe the terrain and memorize it.

In ancient times, those who knew how to survey the terrain and could visually measure the distance were all talents.

Knowing that Liang Yi was more greedy, Lu Wu prepared some targeted gifts.

He selected the best quality pottery, selected some sausages that were made, and even personally supervised the creation of a set of iron armor that was not useful.

This set of iron armor is actually made of clay to make abrasives first, and then poured molten iron, using the casting method.

After cooling, a lot of effort is wasted to grind finely, and fine holes are nailed out where it is really impossible to smooth, even if the leather inside is fixed, it can also be matched with decorations, and it looks very gorgeous.

But it's just gorgeous, and it's so heavy that you can't bend over when you put it on.

Limited by the quality of iron, the defense is there, but it may crack when hit hard with a blunt object, and even an arrow can shoot through.

"This thing is also gorgeous." Cheng Ying said with disgust: "Made for evil gold, for your own use? ”

Lu Wu said that he wanted to be a gift.

Cheng Ying was stunned when she heard this, and began to laugh "haha".

It turns out that no one can wear iron armor at all.

The reason for not wearing it is also very simple, we all know that the iron-making process is not up to par, and then the iron is easy to rust, and if you wear it, you will not mention the rust all over your body, and there will be various skin diseases.

Lu Wu laughed a few times, turned around and left.

Within three days, he came back with a suit of armor.

"Its speed, its strength!" Cheng Ying saw a pair of armor that looked bronze, and there were ribbons and catkins on it, and her jaw was about to fall off, and she asked, "Why teach me?" ”

Lu Wu just melted a thin layer of copper on the outside of that iron armor, and then used the nail hole technique to fix it repeatedly with rope.

That's why armor has such a thing as a ribbon with copper sheets on the cloth.

For such an armor, more than thirty craftsmen were busy for twenty-four days, until it was time to set off, and it was only before they could make such a good thing.

Of course, Lu Wu wouldn't tell Cheng Ying that much.

Thirty warriors were selected, fifty young men were summoned, and seventeen carriages were brought in, and Lü Wu led the team to set off.

This time, Lu Wu was riding in a chariot.

The chariot was the one that had lost a wheel, and it was replaced with a wheel, and it was cleaned, but it still had no axles.

Jia Lao Zhuo said that he had to be a royal (driver).

Qing Ze asked himself to fight the right (the fighter on the right), and fought a few fights with competitors for this purpose.

Lu Wu is, of course, the main master.

The staffing of a "leather car" is also complete.

There are only about 80 people in the team, which is not a huge number, and there is no banner.

The chariot that Lü Wu was riding was of course at the front, followed by Cheng Ying trotting with a basket on his back, behind him were twenty warriors in the first sequence, fifty young men in the second row, and seventeen carriages and ox carts in the back.

The other ten samurai were scattered around the perimeter of the team and followed suit, as well as for reconnaissance and early warning.

Along the way, once again saw the uninhabited natural landscape.

In fact, because there are no people coming and going, there is no road, and all you walk is overgrown or bare flat land.

It takes a lot of people to walk before the road is formed.

Lu Wu was not worried that Cheng Ying was in the same car as him, so he asked Cheng Ying to take the carriage, but Cheng Ying was unwilling to live or die.

And the reason why Cheng Ying is reluctant is very simple, he is a nobleman who is unwilling to make a carriage for loading goods.

He has the only bloodline of the Zhao Clan's main sect, how can he do something to tarnish the honor of the Zhao Clan's main sect?

As for why the old grandmother of the old Lu family is willing to take the carriage?

First of all, the old Lu family has no extra honor.

Then there is the fact that honor in this era belongs only to men, and has nothing to do with women.

For the honor of his heart, Cheng Ying would rather use the run, running to his own body of dust and grass clippings, regardless of whether the child in the basket can stand it.

He has nothing now, and he can only be proud of the fact that the Zhao Clan's main sect has retained this.

The chariot was pulled by two horses, but it was not moving at a fast speed, about fifteen miles.

It's not that it can't be faster, it's that there's no need for that at all.

Moreover, Lu Wu is really a little weak about the car without axles, and there is no shockproof, let alone brakes, and the speed is faster and the wheel on the side is overturned on a stone, which will definitely be a tragedy.

He had charcoal, but no paper, and it was too extravagant to use sheepskin, so he could only memorize the terrain along the way, and planned to go back and draw a rough map from memory.

As night fell, the team had to stop in the wilderness.

Cheng Ying saw that Lu Wu arranged the vehicles on the periphery, and asked people to cut down trees to establish a simple interception line, and at the same time arranged for the warriors to be on duty, and said: "With your (human) ability, you can be handsome." ”

This marshal is not a marshal, but the highest commander of a division.

The formation of a division in the Jin State had 100 chariots and 7,500 soldiers.

Lu Wu knew his own business. He smiled and didn't say anything.

Nothing happened overnight.

When the fish white again in the east, after eating the morning food before the rising sun of the new day, they left the cut trees on the side of the road and started on the road again.

It wasn't until about noon, rounding a hill, that I saw a village on the west side.

The layout of the buildings in this village looks crowded, but it is surrounded by large areas of farmland.

Lu Wu only glanced at the village and farmland for a few moments, and then turned his eyes to the low mountain not far from the village.

There, the mountains are black.
