Cheng Hong was very depressed, not anything else, because the blacksmiths in the whole city were casting salt tripods, and there was no one in the city who was idle to strike iron.

This also led him to train the two hundred and ten Cheng family soldiers to practice with wood all the time, and if it weren't for Cheng Hong's occasional discovery of the uneven coal in the past two days, Cheng Biting Jin, who is now boiling salt and cooking crazy, would have made him useless with wood, knives, guns, and shields.

There is no doubt about this, look at the carts of white salt and the smoke like haze outside the city, the worst thing is the bald mountain, a small canyon washed out by water and dug out a camp of 10,000 people.

The weapons of the pro-soldiers did not see, do not know the power, although the training is orderly, but the hearts of the pro-soldiers are still a little floating, the sword and shield soldier training and so two or three times to the spearmen this is a "piercing", flat piercing, oblique piercing, left and right piercing.

The head of the gun should be tied with a sandbag, and the barrel of the gun is at least 2.5 meters, although everyone knows that the little instructor has better kung fu immediately with his fists and feet, but he can't just hand over such two hits!

This closed eyes are in a good direction, and they are almost three shots in a second. Finally, Cheng Hongxian couldn't help it, no! I have to find Cheng to bite the gold and ask the blacksmith to fight the blade, or let this group of animals see the power of the real thing, and the hearts of the people will be scattered, and there have been training sloppy people who have been locked up in the past two days.

It's not a good sign, go right away without further ado. In the camp outside the city, Cheng Biting Jin was watching the army boiling salt, and he heard Cheng Biting Jin's loud voice from afar, "I think I smashed it with one hand back then, and the stone as big as the grinding plate was broken and like corn...... "Cheng Hong......

Shouldn't I bother the old man to brag, "General Cheng, General Cheng, the last general has something to ask for." Cheng Yanjin looked back, isn't this my lucky general: "Oh, return to Tang, this is not wartime, just call uncle, why did you come here without training your own soldiers?" If nothing else, just rely on your method of taking salt from this stone, even if you lose the military stick, you will be exempted from ......."

Cheng Hong hurriedly interrupted Cheng Yanjin's words: "Uncle, there are still two months to win or lose, but this training is almost impossible to train." "What? Is there another disobedience to discipline? "That's not it, it's just that there is no weapon, and the training feeling of holding a wooden gun and a wooden shield is different, even if the training is good, I am afraid that when the time comes, I will not be able to exert combat power with weapons."

Cheng Biting Jin smacked his lips: "This thing is difficult to do, Ding is enough for the blacksmith to have it now, but this iron is difficult to get, you say you too, this arsenal horizontal knife, obstacle knife, you can pick a spear and spear, you have to use a short spear and a long ......"

Cheng Hong hurriedly corrected: "It's not Changge, it's a hook and sickle, and it specializes in breaking cavalry." "Yes, the hook and sickle, no one has used this hook and sickle, who knows if this thing is easy to use, if it is not convenient, it will be thrown away in vain." Cheng Hongxin said: This is not easy, a generation of famous generals Yue Fei used hook and sickle spearmen to fight the martial arts like Sun Tzu, it is not excluded that Yue Fei used soldiers like a god, but the hook and sickle is the only one in the infantry who dares to be tough with the heavy cavalry, and the head is hooked on the leg of the shovel horse, and the horse is mounted and the row of rows of soldiers can not pierce you, and the horizontal branch will also cut you.

Besides, the hook and sickle gun head I studied uses three edges, and the cowhide armor is a scum in front of it, can it still be used?

Cheng Hong hurriedly said: "Zi said: If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. The good thing we do as soldiers is to kill the enemy, uncle, you are this skill, and you can see if you can drink blood when the weapon comes out?

Besides, let's try it first, these more than 200 pro-soldiers don't use much material in total, so it's okay to report it, and it's not good to throw it away! What if it happens? ”

Cheng Biting Jin secretly summed up in his heart, and he was right! It's not much together, although it's a loser, but it's not a big deal for the sake of so much salt, and the equipment is all pro-soldiers, and the military households on their own villages are also their own, but ~ it's really distressing!

Oh my money! Give it, this is the first time I've thrown money out of Lao Cheng, money! "Cheng Cai, you go and build weapons with Cheng Qianniu in the past few days. The blacksmith is just idle, and the iron is received in the arsenal, so you don't need to tell me how much you get, just report it after you hit it. ”

After speaking, he covered his chest with one hand and waved it like a fly with the other. Okay! There is a cheap nephew, let the money immediately change the way of a thousand cows, so much salt a day and feel sorry for this little iron, you are an iron rooster, the iron rooster can still rub a little rust, you are simply a porcelain rooster, not even foam. Cheng Cai responded and went with Cheng Hong.

More than a dozen blacksmiths squatted in front of the warehouse, Cheng Cai was turning things in the warehouse with two military men, and a Confucian shirt next to him was afraid that he was in charge of the military warehouse, and after a while Cheng Cai came out and greeted Cheng Hong first: "Cheng Qianniu, just now I probably looked at the forming iron ingots, I am afraid that it is not enough, there are a lot of tattered weapons and iron armor, and together there is a small tens of thousands of catties, mainly because it is not very easy to melt and cast, these blacksmiths with the army tinker and repair, are all peasant blacksmiths who cast ploughshares, and those who really fight swords and make steel have to be craftsmen as supervisors. We don't have any of that! ”

And then give a look you can do to see what to do. Okay, you Cheng Cai, I said that Cheng Biting Jin, how can the people who pick the door use you to manage money, you are the most able to save the surname Cheng for a long time. One is just smelting iron, and some people are afraid that they can't smelt coal? You also underestimate your family Cheng fighter

"It's a trivial matter, iron is not in a hurry, let's pick up the river and build a blacksmith shop first, a molten iron is just a matter of molten iron, you can see." Play with me? This time, I will let you know that I know one of the two basic skills of the flower planter~ infrastructure madness!

There is a small river in the two miles of the city, Cheng Hongzheng is leading a group of stonemasons and carpenters, and two hundred and ten Cheng family soldiers sweat "Here, here, put the wood aside, listen to the carpenter and stonemason's orders, come here these days, mainly build a kiln to cut wood and move stones." ”

The whole shore is busy, Cheng Hong took a stack of wooden boards, on which are the drawings drawn last night, a hydraulic forging workshop, the huge waterwheel is Cheng Hong's reliance, lifting the forging hammer, blowing wind to the soil blast furnace, driving the grinding wheel to sharpen the blade all depends on it, and these fresh things have not been built by anyone, so Cheng Hong has guided the whole process in the past two days, while commanding the stuffy coke while directing the use of the soil method to burn cement, although the cement of the soil method is not so strong, but it is still stronger than sticky rice soup, the most important thing is to save trouble, money and time.

At the end of the day, Cheng Hong's voice was hoarse, this group of killers, pick up the arrival can carve the human head out of flowers, pick up the bricks and stones stupid and donkey-like, the day's busy work is finally not in vain, at least I know how to mix soil and cement~ one part of gypsum, five parts of quicklimestone spraying water and pulverization, and then ten parts of slag ash through the basket and then stirring, stirring evenly and stirring......

To say that this method is still learned from a mountain villager, if they use cement to plaster a wall in the wall or something, the lime is burned at home, the slag ash is ready-made, the gypsum has gypsum ore and the hospital comes down, and it is heated and crushed in the pot until it turns yellow-gray, and it is almost the same as normal cement, but the tensile strength is not so strong.

It's not enough to make a roof with beams, so let's talk about settling down after burning cement. There are also refractory bricks, now can only be extravagant, refractory bricks made of pure graphite and clay, extravagant to burst with wood, not luxury is simple, this year even the brick factory has not been on the whole refractory bricks such a thing?

are all holding back, but fortunately it is Cheng Hong, who used to raise the bar with people every day, and the blast furnace ironmaking was to bet with people when acting in a TV series, and the earth blast furnace in the *** period was not used to study at all, and in the end, of course, Cheng Doushi won, and then because there were no dead people in that drama, he didn't even have to earn money for lying on the corpse. It's all tears!

There is still a month before Dabi, the imperial court came to order the class to return to the court, Cheng Biting Jin was busy and did not enter the city, this day after receiving the order, he sat on the collapse and asked Cheng Cai next to him: "What are you doing these two days?" How's he getting the weapon? ”

Cheng Cai hurriedly returned: "Oh, Cheng Qianniu led his own soldiers to build a house by the river two miles outside the city, saying that he was going to melt down the weapons and redo them himself, and today it seems that he went to the library to pull away all the rusty weapons." It is said that the stove is set up and is about to be refined! ”

Cheng Yanjin waved his hand: "Regardless of him, there are still five days for the squad to return to the court, let the carpenter play more carts, the cattle pulled by the people are beaten, and the salt is loaded, they have a trophy convoy, we have a salt convoy, we can't come in vain, send the blacksmith to Hong Boy, don't say that I Lao Cheng bullied the doll, give him enough blacksmith, don't blame me if there is no weapon in five days."

Cheng Cai covered his face: ...... Shameless, in five days, a blacksmith can beat a knife a day, and more than 200 people have to be empty-handed, what is it better than?

In the blacksmith's forge by the river, two huge water wheels rotate with the current, four blast furnaces are arranged one by one, one on the left and right and in the middle of the house, and each blast furnace has five air preheating furnaces extending to the river, the upper half of the preheating furnace is sealed, and the blazing furnace fire below is facing an anvil, and above it is a forging hammer controlled by a machine bracket connecting the waterwheel.

Cheng Hong looked at the blacksmith head holding a torch and turned back to his head and asked, "Cheng Qianniu, I really ordered it!" If this thing can't get out, it's okay with me! Those hundreds of pounds of steel ingots are the ...... you asked me to use for this thing."

Zhang Zhu covered his ears, "If you can't get out, don't blame me, Qianniu, he's done it for the seventh time, or should I do it?" If you don't scare him, we won't be able to report the battle damage! Scared to death has no military merits. ”

Cheng Hong also covered his forehead, this blacksmith head is really incurable, hundreds of catties of steel ingots seem to have used his life, while supervising the construction of the blast furnace, he has to watch him don't cut corners, in his words: Such a good steel doesn't fight weapons to create evil! Cheng Hong really couldn't do it, so he grabbed the torch in the blacksmith's hand and kicked it lightly

"Go aside, the older you get, the more slippery your head becomes." The blacksmith head ran into the crowd of blacksmiths and looked at Cheng Hong with a smile. Cheng Hong lit the preheating furnace, including a series of huge water wheels and began to work with the blower, and after the hot air came up, the main furnace was ignited, and the raging heat wave began to disperse. The blacksmith looked at him with his head poked out and muttered, "Why don't you have iron?" Is it broken. ”

Cheng Hong turned his head and glared at him, he immediately shrank his neck, Cheng Hong said: "Don't look at it, start preparing for the feeding, and be optimistic about the fire." It will take a few hours to make iron, and when the time comes, remember to blow the toner in proportionally, and pour the mold after the iron is produced, and remember what you have been taught. ”

"Remember! Know! The unified answers were all memorized by the pro-soldiers, mixed with the miscellaneous answers of the blacksmiths. Cheng Hong: "Then don't look at it, let's start now!"
