Zhuo Tie's eyes widened, he was an old blacksmith, he had been striking iron for more than 20 years, but he had never seen so many weapons gathered together.

Zheng Yicheng, who was on the side, also opened his mouth wide, and only said in a half-loud voice: "How many blades do you have to have!" ”

Zhuo Tie couldn't answer him, just by visual inspection, there were more blades than the Handan arsenal during the Zhao period.

They saw that one heavy ox and horse cart after another was driving west along Weishui, and when they arrived at the location, the escorted Qin soldiers moved down the ge, spears, swords, halberds, sins, and beryllium on the carts, and piled them up into many hills where tens of thousands of blades were piled up!

After the exclamation, the question came, what were the plans of the Qin officials to let the Shandong copper and iron craftsmen and merchants who moved into Guanzhong come to serve here?

The puzzle is soon revealed, and a Qin iron official named "Sima Chang" asks thousands of craftsmen and merchants to separate the blades from the wooden handles.

Zhuo Tie and Cheng Zheng looked at each other, but under the whip of the Qin officials, they didn't dare to ask more, and they each stepped forward to get busy.

They are all Handan blacksmiths, who have been dealing with blades for half their lives, and have reached the point where they can judge the origin by looking at the shape or the fineness of gold and iron.

"This is definitely Han Jian!"

Zhuo Tie pinched a two-foot sword, and his eyes bloomed with brilliance, since the fall of Korea, he hadn't touched Han Jian for almost ten years.

Although Han is a small country and a widow, it is the weakest country of the Seven Heroes, but there is one thing worth blowing, the world's most sophisticated weapons are from South Korea, the so-called "the world's strongest bows and crossbows are from Han", "the world's sword, Han is the many!" "Especially the Tangxi sword of South Korea, after the craftsmen's tempering, has reached the level of "cutting off cattle and horses on land, intercepting birds and geese in water, and cutting the iron curtain when the enemy"!

It's a pity that the best sword was smashed and bent with a hammer, broke away from the hilt, and fell weakly to the ground.

He picked up another spear, the tip of which was made of iron, and if he looked closely, there was an inscription on it, a bird and an insect......

Although I can't understand what is engraved, at least it can be determined that it is the spear of Chu State, and the Chu spear is not bad, as the world often says, it is like a huge iron spear, as miserable as a bee fly, Zhuo Tie secretly said a pity, removed the tip of the spear forcefully, and threw the long handle aside.

After that, they also discovered the armor of Yan, Qi, and Wei one after another.

The Wei State also had elite soldiers, especially the Ge used by the military soldiers was the most famous.

The blades of Qi are relatively few, although Qi began to engage in salt and iron franchises as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, boiling the sea into salt, opening mountains into iron, and iron tools are the most popular. But after forty years of peace, even the blades are rarely cast, only the needle, knife, plow, plow, cho, jin, saw, awl, chisel and other practical tools are many, Zhuo Tie and Cheng Zheng held the hammer and saw, is from the Qi country.

There is also Yan Guo, the purpose is hundreds of rusty pockets, there is a saying in their craftsman world called "Yan Wuhan", which means that Yan Country does not have a "letter person" who makes a shirt, but in Yan Kingdom, almost everyone can make a shirt, and there is no need for the letter person to exist. It can be seen from this that the Yan people paid the most attention to protection in the war, and these iron dou (móu), probably taken by the Qin people after the fall of the Yan army, still have dried dark brown blood stains inside......

After sharpening the blade for the morning, a hill of weapons was empty, Zhuo Tie and Cheng Zheng walked to the next one and found that all of them were Zhao Guo blades!

"This is the iron rod of Hengshan, I have made it for people!"

Cheng Zheng's hands trembled a little, the iron staff was the most famous weapon of Zhao Guoheng Mountain, its heart was made of iron, and there was a copper hat on the top, and it was covered with blackened rattan skin. Under the command of Li Mu, Wu'anjun, there is a team of hundreds of Hengshan warriors, who often wear iron armor and use iron rods to fight, and all the blows are broken and all the charges are trapped......

Thinking about that scene, Zhao Ren burst into tears.

It's a pity that everything has been wiped out, the six countries are broken, the famous cities are broken, the princes are surrendered, the heroes are dead, and even the blades who have lost their masters are not spared, and they are brought here as trophies, and their heads are separated and shattered!

"What do the Qin people want to do when they collect the soldiers of the Six Kingdoms here and sharpen their edges?"

Zhuo Tie was also full of questions, and three days later, when they were ordered to push the heavy blade and walk to the north of Weishui, the two suddenly realized.

In front of them was a huge construction site, and at the outermost periphery were thousands of simple shacks, where tens of thousands of widowers, most of them dark-skinned farmers from Guanzhong.

Further in, there is a smelting field that Zhuo Tie and Cheng Zheng are no strangers to. Thirty-four oval refining furnaces were erected on the ground, surrounded by a circle, not counting the convex shaped rammed earth platform under the furnace, only counting the furnace body, all of which were as high as more than zhang.

Along with countless carts and charcoal, the convicts kept placing fuel under the furnace, and the newly arrived copper and iron were put into the furnace indiscriminately and smelted day and night.

The hot copper, iron, and gold liquid rushed along the copper canal to the pit surrounded by the furnaces.

Zhuo Tie cautiously approached and found that it was several zhang deep, and inside was a huge model that had been made! Look at it, it seems to be a giant in the process of forging, with a high nose and deep eyes, dressed in a robe, standing with arched hands, in a deferential manner......

Zhuo Tie, Cheng Zheng, and Shandong craftsmen were all stunned, Cheng Zheng even sat down on the ground in a daze, and when he raised his head, he found that the smoke from the surrounding refining furnaces rose into the sky, merging into a stream, and rushing straight to the sky!

……

Standing at the top of Zhangtai Palace, Heifu's vision was much wider than that of Shandong craftsmen, so he could see that on the entire north bank of Weishui, there were a total of twelve smelting fields, and twelve puffs of black smoke gathered, forming a dark cloud, as if to cover the sky of Xianyang!

"It's really spectacular...... Heifu took a deep breath, and even looked forward to what the scene would be when the golden man was placed in the Xianyang Palace.

These twelve golden people are not cast for no reason, but from a "auspicious rui", Qin Shi Huang officially called the emperor in the month, there are five zhang long giants, wearing Di clothes, where the twelve people see in the western border of the Qin State Pass Lintao, but soon disappeared, leaving only a six-foot footprint......

After Lintao Duwei reported this matter to the emperor, it attracted the attention of the emperor and those Qi Yan Yin and Yang families, thinking that this was a good omen for Qin to rule the world and claim the emperor's throne! So in order to commemorate this event, Qin Shi Huang ordered that the collected swords of the Six Kingdoms be transported into the Guanzhong, and twelve golden men weighing up to five zhang and weighing thousands of stones were cast!

In addition, Heifu guessed that Qin Shi Huang also wanted to use this as a ceremony, first, to follow the example of King Wu of Zhou, Ma Fang Nanshan, and collect the world's blades, which is equivalent to declaring that there will be no more war in Kyushu. At the same time, the blades used by the six kingdoms to resist Qin were gathered together and fused into Jin men who surrendered to Qin and guarded the court for Qin, symbolizing the fusion of the world.

Third, in the emperor's opinion, as long as there is no blade, the remnants of the Six Kingdoms are like beasts that have been deprived of their minions, and they will no longer have the strength to resist Qin.

The first two purposes are understandable, but for the third point, Heifu can only shake his head.

"锄懮thorn矜 ( chú yōu jí jīn), non-铦於hook戟長铩也......"

"What Qin Mo said is not unreasonable, if you don't cast gold people and recast farm tools, I don't know how many old wood and stone tools will be replaced. If the 120,000 peasants and tens of thousands of artisans and merchants who served this conscription are allowed to reclaim the land instead, they may open up millions of acres of fertile land......

A few days ago, Qin Mo Chengshang came to visit, and the implication was that he wanted to invite Heifu, a Zhonglang household who could often see the emperor, to Qin Shi Huang to advise: The gold caster is not beneficial to the country or the people, and it is useless to cast it, so it is better to stop......

Hefu couldn't say yes right away, so he could only tell him to let himself think about it.

"What can I say?"

While on duty in the temple, Heifu pondered secretly.

"Your Majesty, the spectacle has misled the country!?"

"Isn't this looking for death...... Heifu shook his head, Qin Shi Huang is still a person who allows his courtiers to meet, and he can't die, but he will lose his trust and even be driven away from afar.

He saw that the emperor's infinite desire to conquer the world was shifting to collecting: collecting concubines from the Six Kingdoms, collecting palaces from the Six Kingdoms, and even collecting large figures from the Six Kingdoms with blades, and later terracotta warriors. Qin Shi Huang is on the rise, and the things he decides rarely give up halfway, so he can't be persuaded to persuade him, so don't touch the mold.

And without these wonders, it seems that the color of the Qin Dynasty will also lose a lot......

So, instead of persuading the emperor to stop casting gold figures, Heifu made a small suggestion.

"Your Majesty can make the craftsmen melt the sword of the Six Nations with a thousand handles with fire, making it an iron couch, and the blade of the sword is stretched back, like a peacock's screen. Put it in the palace, so that future generations can sit on it, and you can know that the world is difficult, and it is even more difficult to keep the world......"

After the song was handed over, Heifu began to make up his mind, if Qin Shi Huang approved this, there would be an extra couch made of steel, full of hideous spikes and sharp horns and strange twisted metal in the Qin Palace.

It's not appropriate to call it the Iron Throne, how about the Iron Emperor's Bed?

Seven kingdoms, one emperor, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it......

Unfortunately, his suggestion was ultimately rejected.

In June, as the twelve golden figures were cast, they began to be slowly transported to Xianyang Palace, and the emperor also carried hundreds of civil and military officials to move from Zhangtai Palace in Weinan to Xianyang City to witness this grand occasion!

It was in the Xianyang Palace that Heifu met the emperor's heirs for the first time......
