Chapter 220: Slave Revolt and Wang Hao's Methods

The clan elder is not a group of old people, in Wang Village, the oldest person is only in her early forties, and she is still a woman. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

These clan elders are all people who are relatively senior, or more eloquent.

They also don't have much power, the only difference from others is that they are responsible for taking care of the children in the village when they are not hunting, teaching them hunting skills and telling them about the wilderness.

However, when there is a dispute in the village, or when there is something difficult to choose, the role of these clan elders is revealed.

Their decisions will represent the decisions of the people, and the one with the greater number will prevail over the one with the lesser number.

Therefore, these clan elders still have a certain right to speak in the village.

No one knows when the existence of the clan elders was handed down, but because of respect for tradition, the village has always followed this rule.

In the end, there was a dispute over who would master the smelting skills.

Wang Hu wanted to learn this technique, and Wang Hao was naturally willing to teach it to him.

However, the clan elders also want to master the technology.

Because it involves his own son, Wang Lung is not easy to speak.

Although Wang Erniu and the others support Wang Hu, they are young after all, and after a few words, a few big hats are buttoned, and a few people are speechless.

Gu Mu looked at both sides with an interesting face and didn't say a word.

In the end, relying on the strength of the crowd, the clan elders finally snatched the smelting technology.

Although Wang Hu was a little sullen, he didn't say much. He just couldn't understand why the clansmen who used to love each other were now spitting over a job.

In the next few days, Wang Hao opened a few more furnaces and consumed half of the copper ore that Liu Village sent over for the first time before he completely taught these clan elders how to smelt.

Half of the bronze ware refined was made into agricultural tools and tools. The remaining half is made into arrowheads.

When it was time to make arrows himself, Wang Hao realized how difficult it was to make a large number of small gadgets such as arrowheads when there was no mechanized assembly line project.

He really couldn't figure out whether the overwhelming feather arrows consumed in a battle in ancient times could really be supported by those handicraft workshops in ancient times.

Although the arrows are small, each arrow is an independent individual, so if you use the lost wax method, each arrow has to be made into a wax model.

First of all, Wang Hao used the method of making the first batch of bronzes, and it took a whole day to make dozens of arrowheads.

This efficiency is too low, and at this rate, even the arrowhead that is produced for half a year may not be enough to consume in a war.

Wang Hao originally wanted to cast a mold, but a small thing like an arrow, even if the mold was cast, it was very troublesome.

In desperation, Wang Hao could only spend two days of faith to download a set of molds from the system.

This set of molds is like a boxy red brick. Directly above, there is a hole with clips and handles on both sides.

When the bronze is melted, the molten copper is poured into the small holes in the mold with the help of a funnel, and the liquid copper is about to overflow.

Leave it until it has cooled naturally, open the clip, and pull the handles on both sides to remove the arrows that have solidified inside.

Such a mold can make twenty arrows at a time, these twenty arrows are connected together, five horizontally and four vertically, after taking out, people need to use a hammer to break the connection points, and then polish the sharpness.

Despite this, with this set of molds, the speed of making arrows has immediately increased by a hundredfold.

Although the principle is very simple, Wang Hao has no way to make it.

Not to mention anything else, in terms of materials alone, he has no choice. There is no way to find a material that is resistant to high temperatures and easy to plasticize.

With the molds produced by the system, it is much simpler.

A furnace of copper water, except for making some farm tools, the rest is to make arrowheads.

Wang Hao made ten of such molds in one go, that is to say, if he practiced one furnace of copper every day, he could produce two hundred arrows per day.

In four or five days, Gu Mu's body was also raised, and Wang Hao handed over the complicated trivial matters in the village to him.

In the past few days, not only have more than 600 arrows been made, but finally Wang Hao has also made 20 metal arrow shafts made of bronze.

Finally, after testing, the feather arrow with the addition of arrows, when drawn into a full bow, can shoot through the thick shell of the devil's head turtle with one arrow. But when you hit the second shell, it gets stuck on it.

And if it is only drawn into a half moon, the feather arrow with the arrow will not be able to penetrate even the first turtle shell.

The shaft of the arrow, which is made of bronze throughout, has been tested and is even more powerful, and at a distance of fifty meters, it can penetrate the shell of the ghost-headed turtle stacked on three sides with a single arrow.

But because of the weight, if you exceed fifty meters, you will start to fall.

Wang Hu told Wang Hao that he only needed thirty percent of the strength to pull out the reinforcing bow now, which was a very easy thing.

If he could be given an arrow that was stronger than a reinforced bow, he would be able to shoot this iron arrow farther than a normal bow.

It's a pity that the strength of the reinforced bow is already the limit that the plant can reach. If you want to increase the strength, unless you thicken and lengthen the bow.

But if it is lengthened and thickened, Wang Hu's arms are not long enough, and the power is not as good as before.

Wang Hao originally wanted the system to make a batch of metal bows out of metal, but the system told him that because of the lack of some metal elements, there was no way to make that kind of tough metal.

After all, the system is not omnipotent, and he still needs materials to make things.

Everything in the village is proceeding in an orderly manner, and the newly built brick houses are getting higher and higher day by day, and in just four or five days, there are enough people tall, and at this time to lay bricks, you have to build a shelf.

Two more brick kilns were expanded during this time, which were used to burn cement.

It's just that, unlike the more smooth things such as brick burning and copper smelting, the cement in two kilns in a row has burned out.

It seems that there is no problem, but for some reason, it is not very sticky, and it is better to build a wall with lime and clay.

When Wang Ba came to Yan Village again, his body was stained with blood, and he told Wang Hao that the people of Yan Village had a big enmity with those slaves, and it was okay at first, but as time went on, they not only began to deduct the slaves' food, but also took pleasure in torturing the slaves.

He had been a well-trained slave, but then there was a riot on a cloudy night.

Fortunately, because of his methods of divisive management, the riot did not elicit much of a slave response. Only a dozen or so slaves rioted. It was quickly suppressed, but there were already few clansmen in Yan Village, and now seven more died, accounting for one-tenth of them.

From Wang Ba's mouth, he learned that the slave rebellion was completely caused by the torture of the Yan villagers.

The main reason is that they Yan Village people skinned a slave who deliberately damaged the tool in front of the slave.

The vitality of the people of the Great Wilderness is generally tenacious, and this slave has been skinned and has not died, and he howls until the sky turns dark, which makes the slaves riot.

Wang Hao once instructed Wang Ba that if there was any conflict between the Yan Village people and the slaves, he would not interfere and let them hate each other, and then he would be on the side, so that he could control them in the simplest way. Wang Ba was obedient, although he felt unbearable, but he did not come forward to stop it.

Who knew something like this would happen that night. If it weren't for Wang Ba's good work in the early stage, I'm afraid that this riot would overturn the entire Yan Village.

Wang Hao thought about it for a while, and asked Wang Ba to bring a batch of hoes, which were not much, only twenty.

The several peasant uprisings on the planet were initially opened up by the help of agricultural tools such as hoes and shovels.

These hoes can give slaves a sustenance in their hearts and a false confidence.

And the people of Yan Village will also feel some pressure because of this, and they dare not be too harsh on these slaves.

Not only that, Wang Hao gave Wang Ba the task of issuing hoes, and he could choose those who were easier to manage, or use them to divide the more closely connected factions among the slaves.

Wang Hao always believed that those so-called loyalties to the village were bullshit, and that in the Great Wilderness, any tribe could face a situation of not having enough to eat, in comparison, being a slave in Wang Village was no less than a heaven and a hell compared to returning to their original village.

As long as the contradiction between them and Yan Village is stimulated, then their real enemies will be forgotten and even appreciated by them.

Then raise the cost of their escape, so that they all understand that if they escape, it is completely dead to be caught. With the addition of some other small means, Wang Ba is completely able to manage them well over there.

After a long time, when they get used to this kind of life. Even if they let them go, they don't want to go.

Moreover, there is a last reason for taking the lead, and that is to speed up the speed of their land reclamation.

During this time, many species on the Great Wilderness can be planted or cultivated.

For example, it is not enough for the arrowwood, which is bound to be a strategic resource in the next two years, to grow in the wild.

The day before yesterday, the clansmen who rode the giant clawed dragon to patrol outside came back and told Wang Hao that imitation bows and arrows had been found outside, but their bows and arrows could only shoot thirty or forty meters away, and they could only shoot some grass rabbits and stupid chickens.

Slightly more powerful beasts, such as tigers and boars, will not be able to shoot through their fur.

Even if they get a little farther away, they won't even be able to shoot a deer.

With this sign, Wang Hao already knew that soon, things like bows and arrows would no longer be a specialty of their Wang Village, but at that time, the bow and arrow of their Wang Village would be the most powerful. (To be continued.) )
