Chapter 14: Forging the Blade
Sun Lang left the martial arts arena, he kept wandering around the barracks, and he was tired of walking, so he simply sat under the corner......
He had already seen that this Dong attacked Dong Yuandai, who was really a bit dumbfounded, and he was not a shrewd person at all. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info handed over to him by five hundred sergeants to command, I don't know what it will be like.
It doesn't matter, anyway, his five hundred old and weak soldiers are definitely not the opponent of Yan Baihu's three thousand thieves......
"Why are you so downcast?" The old hoarse voice sounded, and it turned out that it was the charcoal head who saw his mind and climbed onto his shoulder.
Sun Lang said: "I thought I could be a majestic general, but I didn't expect that I was given such a group of old and weak soldiers, who did not have any combat effectiveness at all. ”
Tantou said while eating corn cakes: "The vertical man is short-sighted, do you know that avoiding Liu Xuan this time and conquering Shanyue is actually teaching you to pick up a big bargain?" ”
Everyone wanted to go to Liu Xuan and make contributions, but they didn't expect Tantou to say this, Sun Lang couldn't help but be surprised when he heard it, and hurriedly asked, "What do you mean by this?" Why did you take Shanyue or pick up a bargain? ”
Tantou replied: "The Sun family army has captured the Hengjiang military village, and the so-called arrogant soldiers will be defeated." They don't have an advantage in terms of troops, but they have to divide their troops into multiple ways, and this time they will definitely suffer a lot when they encounter Qu A Liu's army! ”
Sun Lang shook his head again and again, and said: "No, no, there are many talents in the Sun family's army, so many generals will use divine skills, but Liu Xuan's subordinates have no generals available, even if the two armies are very different in strength, then Liu Xuan is definitely not the opponent of the Sun family's army." ”
Tantou sneered: "Who said that Liu Xuan's subordinates are not available? ”
Sun Lang said: "Zhang Ying and Fan Neng are ordinary ordinary people, how can they be the opponents of Huang Gaizu Mao Cheng Pu Handang?" It is not an exaggeration to say that he has no generals. ”
Tantou shook his head and shook his head, and the god chattered: "The old man watched the sky at night, and saw that the star rose in the southeast, and directly attacked the shaking palace, indicating that there will be a god general in the Yangzhou army." ”
Sun Lang's eyes lit up and said, "You can even look at the sky?" How do I feel that you are better than Zhuge Liang? Tell me, who is this God? ”
The charcoal head laughed and said: "Zhuge Kongming, the old man regards it like a mustard ear!" Didn't you say that there is a general named Tai Shici in the Yangzhou army? ”
As soon as the name of "Tai Shici" came out, Sun Lang was really shocked......
He was not very familiar with history, and only knew that Tai Shici was a general of Eastern Wu, but he had never heard that he had served under Liu Xuan before he joined Eastern Wu.
Even if Tai Shici is now in Liu Xuan's army, can he rely on his own strength to resist the attacks of so many generals in the Sun family's army in turn?
He didn't know whether what Tantou said was true or false, so he said stiffly: "I don't care how they win or lose in attacking Liu Xuan, I only know that five hundred old and weak soldiers will definitely not be able to defeat three thousand bandits." ”
The charcoal head said: "Three thousand rabble, just scared you?" is so timid and afraid, how will he command thousands of troops in the future? ”
Sun Lang said stubbornly: "It's not that I'm afraid of things, but the disparity in strength is really huge, if I also give me 3,000 elite soldiers, I will definitely be able to easily wipe out the thieves." ”
Tantou said: "Why do you need 3,000 elite soldiers to level the thieves? It is enough to have a general who can fight well, and even those five hundred sergeants are not needed! ”
General? A thrilling spirit flashed in Sun Lang's heart...... He knew that Tantou was definitely not the stupid Dong Xi he was talking about......
"You mean my sister Sun Shangxiang?"
Tantou smiled: "Yes, if you want to do extraordinary things, you must treat extraordinary people." If you want to win more with less, you must have a god general under your hands. Therefore, your top priority now is not to train the troops, nor to go on an expedition, but to create the exclusive artifact suitable for Sun Shangxiang as soon as possible! The old man once said that Sun Shangxiang's spiritual power is windy, his body is light and agile, and his throwing is accurate, which is suitable for using weapons such as throwing knives or darts. ”
Sun Lang nodded yes, he clearly remembered that when he was on the mountain, Sun Shangxiang waved a long sword, and from a distance of more than ten zhang, he was able to accurately throw the sword in front of the tiny charcoal head.
As soon as he thought of this, he was immediately full of confidence, regained his fighting spirit, and walked around the barracks.
He was clearly looking for a swordsmithing room.
Liu Miao painstakingly built this Hengjiang military village, and naturally it was also equipped with a complete and thoughtful sword-casting room. Sun Lang didn't take a few steps before he saw a quiet and dim thatched house, which faintly exuded a sour smell of sand and fire.
He was no stranger to the smell, a smell unique to the clay sword. He stepped forward, gently pushed open the wooden door, took a deep breath, and said with an intoxicated expression: "Hmm...... All the delicacies in the world are not as delicious as the taste of the sword-casting room, which can make me fascinated and dreamy. ”
The charcoal head squatted on his shoulder, and said with a disdainful face: "Perverted! Obviously, the taste of corn cake is even more intoxicating! ”
Sun Lang smiled faintly, looking at the dimly lit and empty casting room, it was obvious that the blacksmiths in the army had followed the army to the battle. There are iron felts on the ground, iron hammers, water basins, fire kilns, several large piles of clay in the distance, clay fans next to the soil, wooden molds, hooks and spoons, shovels, all kinds of familiar sword casting necessities, he saw these, his heart sprouted a sense of cordiality, and a smug smile appeared on his face.
Compared with commanding the army, Sun Lang obviously appreciated his craft of forging weapons more. According to Tantou's plan, he wanted to create a unique weapon in the world and give it to his sister Sun Shangxiang, so that she would follow him with all her heart and go to conquer the Shanyue thieves.
If she can really stimulate the wind attribute spiritual power in her body, so that she can become a god general who can use divine skills, why worry about the uneven mountains?
The first step in forging a sword is to make a clay model, which is a model, which needs to be smelted into a slurry by smelting iron ingots or bronze, pouring into the clay model, and after the iron slurry is cooled, the embryo shape of the weapon can be formed.
Of course, what he wants to cast is a flying knife, which has a thin blade, and requires more care and refinement than the clay model used to make a long sword. This is quite a challenge for Sun Lang.
What's more, he didn't want to create an ordinary throwing knife, and in just a moment, he had already conceived his own idea. He wanted to create a set of Nine Phoenix Flying Knives, and the handle of each flying knife must be designed in the shape of a phoenix, with different postures and lifelike.
"Phoenix" is homophonic to "wind", and he feels that only Phoenix, as the king of birds, can be worthy of his sister.
