Chapter 5: Arming. under

"Wang, that guy seems to be stirring up trouble between you and Cassius?"

Ni stepped forward and said.

"yes, very shoddy skills."

Tianxiang said calmly.

"Aren't you going to punish this despicable man? Today, if he dares to speak ill of his mentor in front of you, there is no guarantee that he will not say any nonsense in front of others in the future. Ni reminded Han Tianxiang and said.

Turning his head, Han Tianxiang looked at Ni with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Nee, your thoughts are getting closer and closer to some of the higher-ups. However, it is clear that you have gone astray. β€œ

After saying that, Tianxiang turned his head, leaving Ni with a stunned expression on his face.

"I didn't punish Cassius not because of my generosity, but because he was an important cornerstone. It's not because he is important, to be honest he doesn't matter, but that's why I can't punish him at will. β€œ

Ni opened his mouth in surprise and asked, "Why is that?!" β€œ

"Because neither Cassius nor Barrophon have broken the law, then whether he is important or not is not within the scope of my disposal. If any of them breaks the law, then no matter whether it is important or unimportant, don't even think about running. β€œ

Turning around, Tianxiang looked at Ni.

"So you know what I mean, don't you?"

Looking at Tianxiang Yan with a hint of stubbornness and persistence, Nino nodded thoughtfully.

The three of them waited outside for a while, and it took about twenty minutes for Cassius to come out of the house.

As soon as he went out, Tianxiang made his intention clear.

Cassius understood what Tianxiang meant on the spot, and then called four or five apprentices to the storeroom of the blacksmith's shop to retrieve three large bags of goods that had been bound and wrapped with linen cloth and straw rope.

Cassius asked the apprentice to open one of the packages, only to hear a "whoosh"!

More than thirty freshly fired spears emerged from the package.

Among these long guns, there are long and short, the long ones are about three meters, and the short ones are almost two meters, and the body of the guns is made of wood after being polished, and the feel is a little rough to the touch but very slippery, and all the gun heads are brand new iron!

There are three packs of spears, each with about 30 guns, one of which is a long gun, a short gun, and a javelin! All the spear heads were made of iron, and it was hard to imagine how many people could leave alive under such a group of spears that shone with the cold light of Hoho.

In addition, a number of wooden shields have also been built, these are 1 meter long and half a meter wide, wrapped in animal skins and painted red large shields, each shield has a blooming rose. This is the glorious rose that will be famous all over the world in the future!

When Ba saw such a large amount of equipment, his eyes were about to pop out in surprise.

"Great, sir...... How do you ...... How the hell did you do that!? It's impossible to make so many weapons in a week! β€œ

Tianxiang shook his head, this kind of modular management similar to the assembly line of later generations is useless even if it is explained. He simply asked the blacksmith to make a sharpener with a spear head, and then all the wooden rods were of the same length and thickness, and when the time came, he removed the effort of chopping and setting the soil, and made a good spear that lasted less than an hour.

Secondly, the manpower assigned by Tianxiang to the blacksmith is not randomly distributed, for example, the Barrophon just now is the processor who is responsible for making the body of the gun, and there are seven other than him who are responsible for processing the body of the gun. Because wood cannot be mass-produced with molds, it can only rely on manual grinding.

After the gun head can rely on the mold for grinding, many complex processes in the process can be omitted, and only the liquid needs to be introduced and waited for it to cool down before the second grinding, which greatly saves the production time.

It takes at least three hours or even five hours for an ordinary spear to be completed from making to completion, but it can be reduced by more than an hour under the reasonable distribution of labor, and it can be directly shortened by two hours again with the assistance of the mold. And what makes this qiΔ“ so simple is a small and small box that is black in the blacksmith's shop.

Making this small box only requires three steps: material selection, shaping, and use.

But something as simple as this can greatly shorten the time of blacksmithing, and it is almost a milestone in the world of blacksmithing, and its status is equivalent to that of a harness for a heavily armed knight.

"Ne, take these things and distribute them to the members of each hunting party, and transfer ten more from the logging team, and ten out of the twenty people who are with me."

Tianxiang said expressionlessly: "We will use these weapons to form our own army, thirty-five pikemen, fifteen sword and shield men, plus you, the lieutenant general. An armed force of fifty men is enough for us to protect ourselves for the time being. β€œ

Ni stared at the qiΔ“ in front of him in amazement, and Saman had the same expression as him.

"But, my lord, they are only a group of farmers and hunters, not knights." Ni stammered, and to be honest, he felt more and more that his king was not simple, and even faintly felt a chilling feeling.

My intuition is telling SΓΉni that something terrible is already happening.

In this era, there were three ways of composition of soldiers, peasant soldiers, domestic soldiers, and knights. Among them, the peasant soldiers are actually the captured strong men who belong to the cannon fodder class, and the family soldiers belong to the armed forces supported by the nobles themselves, and they have some basic equipment and combat awareness, but because they are positioned as "family soldiers", they will look at the door or something, and they basically belong to the cannon fodder series like the peasant army on the battlefield, but they are a little more advanced...... Well, high-class cannon fodder.

Knights are a regular armed force in the true sense of the word, and whoever has more knights in the Middle Ages will be able to win the battle.

Therefore, including Ni, the people of this era basically attached great importance to the existence of knights, but they ignored that the real large army did not rely on those scarce and extremely precious knights, on the contrary, it was the armed legion composed of those peasant soldiers who were looked down upon by the crowd that could play a decisive role in the big war!

Tianxiang nodded.

Obviously, Nee's views are also limited by this era, so he does not intend to waste time and Nee explaining what is called a mixed army operation and the tri-service organization that he planned in the future.

"Yes, it is...... We don't have knights. β€œ

Tianxiang pondered and continued.

"But the Romans and the conquerors didn't have knights either......"

Ni was choked by Tianxiang's words on the spot, and the corners of his mouth twitched vigorously.

Tianxiang Jeanni and Saman took a few blacksmith apprentices and distributed all these weapons, giving priority to the tall serfs with spears and short spears and shields to the lesser serfs.

However, Tianxiang is not in a hurry to train them, after all, the town's food income is still mainly dependent on these hunters. So after dividing the weapons, Tianxiang divided this group of people with weapons into two teams.

Both teams had to be trained and provided with the necessary food for the whole village. Therefore, for the sake of two concerns, Han Tianxiang decided to change to the second team to receive training after three days of training in the first team. The first team continued to hunt in the mountains, replacing the vacancy that had arisen in the second team.

In the next two months, the village gradually got on the right track in an orderly manner under Han Tianxiang's arrangement.
