Fusu heard this and groaned from the inside: "Oh my God, who are these old ancestors of the Qin Kingdom?" They've literally perfected the killing machine! With the most perfect weapons and the bravest warriors, it's no wonder that the Six Nations will be beaten to the ground! Suddenly, Fu Su thought about it and asked, "Then the Qin crossbow is so complicated, is there still an intention to prevent other countries from copying it?" Shi nodded proudly and said: "What Gongzi said is very true, I, Qin Xuanxiu, said that it was robbed by the grassland barbarians, which is the occasional gain of the six countries of the Kwantung region, and it is also racking my brains and difficult to copy!" ”

Fusu secretly gave a thumbs up: "High, really high." In the future, when you fight with the grassland barbarians, you will shoot his mother with a Qin crossbow, and I promise to shoot them wow, don't jump! ”

Suddenly, Fusu discovered a strange fact and said, "Engineer, why do you only see crossbows and not bows?" He smiled and said, "Our Qin State basically rarely uses bows to fight!" Mainly because the bow has too close a range and is less accurate! But some generals still need to use it in special operations, but we don't produce bows! Fu Su scratched his head, it seems that there is no market for the bow in the Qin State, and he can't do it with a crossbow!

When the crossbow was finished, the crowd moved on until they came to the place where the arrows were made. Fusu picked up a small arrow that had just been made, and even a little hot, and looked at it carefully: the arrow was in a triangular shape, each section was smooth and abnormally smooth, and the incision was very sharp, which looked cold and shining. Absolutely well-made.

Fusu was a little surprised and said, "Engineer, why are these arrows all triangular shapes?" He laughed and said, "Yu Gongzi, compared to other shapes of arrows, the triangular shape flies more smoothly when shooting, and has a huge penetrating power when hitting enemy soldiers, which can easily penetrate armor and invade the human body!" This is determined by our craftsmen after countless trial productions! ”

Fusu suddenly remembered: Isn't the modern bullet also triangular shape, Qin Jun's design idea of the arrow is actually similar to the modern bullet. Awesome, awesome! Now Fusu is only surprised!

So, Fusu, who was excited, picked up a few small arrows and put them in his hands to look at them. Suddenly, Fusu felt strange, and hurriedly picked up two arrows to connect the various sections of the three edges together, and they were completely closed. As a result, the surprised Fusu took more than a dozen arrows in a row and tried them, and the results not only showed that the size and shape of the three sections of each arrow were exactly the same, but there was almost no difference between the different arrows. Fusu groaned loudly again from his heart, and three big words popped up in his head: standardization!

Fusu asked with some trembling thoughts, "How can this kind of arrow be exactly the same size and shape?" How can there be no error at all? Strangely enough, he said, "It's nothing." Not only are all the weapons made by us absolutely the same size, but all the weapons made by the Qin State are also exactly the same size! Fusu's eyes widened and said, "How is this possible?" "Fusu doesn't dare, and he doesn't want to believe it!

Some of the second monks were puzzled and said: "Really son, how dare the villain lie to you!" All the weapons of Great Qin are determined by the law in terms of size, shape, weight, and so on. Generally speaking, when every weapon appears, I, Daqin, will choose the best one, fix its size, shape, and weight in the form of a law, and then send it to military manufacturers all over the country, so that each military manufacturer can manufacture it according to law. If there is a mistake and does not meet the requirements, it is a light punishment, and the worst is a big crime of killing the head and even exterminating the nine clans. Who dares to be sloppy! ”

Fusu, who opened his mouth wide, didn't feel much surprise now, there were too many surprises today, the Qin people even came up with super production technologies such as 'standardized weapon production', what else could not be achieved.

Suddenly, Fusu thought about it and asked, "But, generally speaking, the size of a weapon made by a craftsman may be exactly the same, but the size of the weapons made by different craftsmen can also be exactly the same?" "Fusu is a bit of a desperate chase. But Yu was obviously very proficient in his own duties, and nodded calmly: "Yes Gongzi, every weapon, the imperial court has exactly the same mold sent down, and anyone must follow it." And when the manufacturing is completed, the supervisor of each craftsman's room (equivalent to the workshop director) will personally inspect the mold, and if there is no unqualified one that can never leave the factory, the craftsman will also be punished! If you think it is qualified, you need to engrave the name of the craftsman, the engineer and the engineer on the three layers, and leave a certificate on it, with the number of 'Wule Gong Name'. For example, this arrow, please look at it, it is engraved with the words (17 years of Guowei Wei Xuan, engineer '詟', Cheng 'righteousness', work 'Cheng') These words refer to: This is supervised by the Guowei Lord, the engineer who audits and agrees to enter the warehouse is the subordinate, the inspection of the craftsman is 'righteousness', and the craftsman who directly manufactures is 'Cheng'! If, in the future, the army reports that the weapons are poorly manufactured and there is a problem, we can investigate to the end and all of them will be punished. The light ones are scourged, and the heavy ones are put to death! No one would dare to neglect their duties, so the essence of my Great Qin's weapons is absolutely the best in the world! ”

Fusu only has a nod now, with such a strict and advanced weapons industry as the backing, if the Qin army can't win the battle, it will be a bunch of pigs!

******

Immediately afterwards, he took Fusu and others to visit the fourth craft: the spear and halberd craftsman's room.

This is a place that specializes in the production of large weapons such as spears, halberds, berylliums, and other weapons. Fusu was very familiar with heavy weapons such as spears and halberds, but he didn't know what kind of weapons were for beryllium. After careful observation, Fusu discovered that the beryllium weapon was actually a weapon formed by a shortened bronze sword mounted on a long wooden handle. Fusu, who suddenly came to his senses, suddenly woke up: It turns out that beryllium is such a weapon! It is no wonder that many modern archaeologists think that beryllium is just a bronze dagger after the wooden handle of beryllium has decayed over time!

But fortunately, the cranial nerves of Fusu and the others are already very strong now, so there is no surprise when they see all kinds of spears, halberds, beryllium and other weapons that are shining with cold light and extremely sharp. Although from the bottom of their hearts, everyone still felt a kind of fear from the bottom of their hearts about these powerful heavy weapons.

Suddenly, Fusu came to the place where the finished heavy weapons were stored, and couldn't help but be stunned again, and asked, "Engineer, why are the lengths of these three weapons such as spear, beryllium, and halberd completely different?" ”

He replied: "The spear is two feet and seven feet long (about six meters and three!!) ), is the most advanced type of infantry in the infantry formation, except for crossbowmen, and their weapons are to be aimed directly at the enemy, so according to the experience of an inch long and an inch strong, the spear is made to such a length. Through the trial experience of the Qin army, it was concluded that the three-zhang long weapon was the limit length that ordinary soldiers could use, so for the sake of flexibility, it was reduced to two zhang and seven feet. The beryllium is one zhang and a half feet long (about three meters and a half), and the beryllium soldiers are behind the spearmen to guard the army formation. Because the spearmen are too long, although the assault is powerful and unstoppable, if the enemy breaks into the formation, the spearmen have no melee ability and can only be slaughtered by the enemy. At this time, the beryllium soldiers stepped forward to attack and block the enemy. The halberd is one zhang and two feet long (about two meters eight), and the halberd soldiers are the best at hand-to-hand combat, if the spearmen and beryllium soldiers in front of them are crushed by the enemy, it will be the turn of the halberdiers to swing their halberds! The length and weight of these heavy weapons are formulated according to the best battlefield experience, so they are extremely powerful when used to fight on the battlefield and charge into battle! ”

What else to say, Fusu only nodded violently, who said that he knew almost nothing about Qin's weapons industry!

The last Craftsman's Room: The Armor Smith's Room.

It was a combined workshop that produced all kinds of armor, chariots, and other things.

Compared with the previous four rooms, the shock brought by the armor smith's room to Fusu and others is much smaller, but just from some small things, we can see how strict the Qin army is with the armor: the armor of the Qin army is mainly leather armor, and only some generals are made of metal; All the leather armor of the Qin army was made of leather strips and tendons, and its stitches were thick and thin, long and short, and the craftsmanship was also different, but no mistakes were allowed. Even the eighteen pinholes on each piece of armor were meticulously stipulated, and once one was found to be missing, the female craftswoman who made the system was punished with a warning and even a whip! (Fusu sweats, and there is only one word in his brain: strict!) ）

And the chariot of the Qin army is also very strong and solid, in order to ensure the sturdiness of the chariot, even a few willow nails for a certain part are clearly stipulated. What is even more shocking is the advanced wheel design of the Qin army's chariots: the bronze wheels are very delicate and strong, and no more than 30 spokes similar to today's bicycle steel wires disperse the pressure of the body on the wheel itself, making the chariot run fast and steady; As for the processing complexity of the hub, it is far beyond today's imagination: it is only connected to the axle at both ends, but in the middle is a cavity with a bulging belly, which is filled with grease, which plays a role similar to lubricating oil today, making the friction between the hub and the axle more flexible, and the driving is more light!

Fusu was also greatly surprised: no wonder the 400,000 Zhao army was strangled by a 25,000-strong chariot army sent by Bai Qi in the Battle of Changping! With such a powerful chariot, charging into battle is as powerful and unstoppable as Mount Tai's top!

………

At the end of the day, Fusu said goodbye to everyone and returned to the palace. None of the people on the road spoke, obviously feeling deeply shocked by the huge and advanced weapons and engineers of the Qin State. Fusu took a breath: Qin has such strength, it can indeed make a child win the world immediately, let alone Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of the ages. The demise of the Six Nations is indeed an unstoppable historical trend!

Thinking of this, Fusu couldn't help but secretly make up his mind: In such a great country, many of its ideas on governing the country and the army are very advanced and practical even in modern times, and I must not sit idly by and watch it be destroyed in the hands of those traitorous ministers. For the sake of power, I will overcome all difficulties and vow not to give up until I achieve my goal!!
