As he spoke, Uncle Sun Qi took out two pairs of bows and said: "Just like these two pairs, according to the thickness, it should be one stone, but after the test, one pair is just nine buckets, and one pair is more than one stone." ”

Huang Jie took it and took a look, and saw that the two pairs of bow blades were roughly average in length, thickness and curved arc, but the elasticity was more than a bucket worse, thinking about the gap between the future and the present, he could understand it, so he smiled: "It's okay!" Just build more, build more, and classify each other. ”

After saying that, he handed the bow to Hua Rong, and after teaching him how to load and unload, Hua Rong quickly took off the super strong bow of six stones and two buckets, replaced it with a bow of nine buckets, and opened the full moon with a slight pull.

"God!" Hua Rong couldn't put it down with this combination recurve bow, and chose a pair of three stones and two buckets from the pile of bows to replace it, and after opening and closing it a few times, he also said to Huang Jie with a shy face: "Uncle...... This bow ......"

Huang Dalang nodded and smiled: "If you like it, I'll take it!" It's not something of value, Uncle Seven, right? ”

Uncle Sun Qi nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, yes!" The bow handle of this bow is cast with pig iron juice, and it is necessary to always pay more than a pair of small quantities of production, and if it is made in large quantities, I am afraid that it will not be worth consistently. As for the bow blade, it is a bit laborious, but there is a steady stream of good steel from Dalang's inverted flame furnace, and a pair of bow blades is at most more than two dollars of material. ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard it, and now an ordinary horn bow on the market costs twenty or thirty yuan, if it is a military iron tire bow, it can be worth one hundred and ten yuan, and a strong bow of more than three stones is even more priceless and unavailable. But the cast iron bow in front of him is consistent, and the soft steel bow blades run through two pairs, and when assembled, it is a powerful bow with six stones and two buckets. How not to surprise everyone.

Gu Xiong, who had been in charge of the navy, saw it, and he was also itching. stepped forward to borrow research with Hua Rong, but Hua Rong couldn't put it down. Just when there was a stalemate, Uncle Sun Seventeen simply took out a big cloth bag and poured it down, that is, more than a dozen pairs of bows dropped the bow blade and bowstring to the ground, and said, "Don't fight, it's too much!" Now the workshop can make thirty or fifty pairs every day, and I am not afraid of less! ”

Gu Xiong hurriedly took a bow handle, and then chose a bow piece marked with one stone and two buckets to try it, and then he happily accepted it directly, and the rest of the people were not polite. All come up and choose.

Taking advantage of this effort, Huang Jie said to Uncle Sun Qi: "Uncle Seven, I see that the casting process is still unfamiliar, and now I am not in a hurry to equip the team, it is better to put our strength into excellence, I told you about the alloy, but there are eyebrows?" ”

Uncle Sun Qi frowned when he heard this, and said, "What kind of chromium are you talking about, you really can't find it." There is also what kind of aluminum, I have also inquired about many craftsmen, but I have never heard of it, and I am afraid that this matter will have to be explored slowly. ”

Huang Jie also understands how difficult this is. Then he nodded and said, "I'm afraid I can only take my time, but gloves, knee pads, arm pads, etc. will soon come in handy, as well as wooden knives, wooden swords, guns and sticks." ”

Uncle Sun Qi smiled: "Don't worry about these." I asked for the old ones to find several top-notch craftsmen, and recruited dozens of old brothers from the old soldiers of the Western Army to help. You can't make a mistake in keeping it. ”

After speaking, Uncle Seven gave Uncle Nine a look again, and Uncle Nine of course took a few wooden boxes in. When I opened it and poured it out, I saw that it was full of strange bits and pieces, such as half-fingered gloves made of leather, strips made of fine cowhide, arm guards and knee pads with heavy hands and iron plates, and some boots, vests, and crotch coats of different sizes and strange styles.

Huang Jie also got up and explained these things, what tactical gloves, what carrying gear, what stab-proof protective gear, and even the cowhide soles of the boots are equipped with iron plates, ensuring that even if you step on something as sharp as thistle, you will not be injured. Needless to say, Hua Jialang happened to be human, so he was pulled by Huang Jie to wear it with him one by one.

After looking at it, it is also somewhat interesting, but I am not familiar with the use of these utensils, and I don't know where the benefits are.

Huang Jie also said: "These tactical equipment have been prepared a lot now, and you just need to get it when the time comes." Also, if you need any utensils, you should also make them in the workshop. ”

Later, he talked to everyone about the details of all kinds of actions, and finally after everyone was quiet, Huang Jie also got up and said, "Everyone! In the next ten years, the stakes are very high, whether we can turn the tide, but also rely on your help, I thank you! ”

Saying that, Huang Jie bowed down with a long bow, everyone got up and saluted, and Gongsun Zheng, who was sitting on the main seat, secretly looked at everyone, and saw that everyone was solemn, and his eyes looking at Huang Jie were also unswerving, and his heart was also secretly happy.

After the meeting, Huang Jie invited Gongsun Zheng to the study to talk, and after serving tea, Gongsun Zheng also stroked his beard and said: "In the year of junior brother, the Jin realm is huge, but I am ashamed to be a senior brother and achieve nothing!" ”

Huang Jie smiled, but he changed his words and said: "My cheap Uncle Yue's poems are well written, and there is a sentence in "Ode to Pork", which is called the clean washing bell, less water, and he is beautiful when the fire is full." If I don't mention who is destined today, but there is no doubt about heaven. Senior brother is not cured now, just recuperate with peace of mind, don't have any shameful thoughts, the future major events still need to work hard for senior brother planning. ”

Gongsun Zheng smiled, and there was no need to say anything more about what he wanted to say, so he took out a bag from his arms and said, "This is what my master wants me to bring to Da Lang, can you guess what is in it?" ”

Huang Jie looked at it, thought for a while, and said, "Luo Zhenren will definitely not give me any tricks, could it be the method of making the Gangwu Thunder Righteous Law that day?" ”

Gongsun Zheng raised his eyebrows, then laughed out loud, put the bag into Huang Jie's hand, and said with a smile: "Let you guess!" This thing is very powerful, and it is the treasure of Taoism, and I hope that you will use it properly. ”

Huang Jie nodded, then opened the bag and took out three pages of yellow paper to read carefully, and saw that there were more than 100 kinds of materials listed on it, and he couldn't help but smile dumbly. After carefully putting away the bag, Huang Jie got up and went to the bed and found a small wooden box, moved it to Gongsun Zheng and opened it and said with a smile: "Senior brother, let's take a look at my imitation palm thunder, how about it?" ”

When the wooden box was opened, he saw that there were twelve iron balls the size of adult fists, with longitudinal and weft lines on the iron balls, a small hole in the head facing up, and a small roll of hemp rope on the side of the iron ball.

"Is this a thunderbolt?" Gongsun Zheng picked it up, and found that it was quite heavy, at least two catties up and down, and he came to his nose to smell it, in addition to the smell of iron, there was a faint smell of sulfur.

Fire is a general term for spherical firearms today, such as fire ringing, tribulus terrestris fire, thunderbolt fire, etc. Later, in the Ming Dynasty, the character was replaced by the word "ball".

"Yes! Neither is it! Huang Jie said and took another set of books from the shelf, took out one and turned one of the pages and asked, "Senior brother, let's take a look, how does the gunpowder recipe in this compare with what Luo Zhenren gave?" (To be continued.) )
