Chapter 211: Soft Sword? Spring steel! (b)

"General Li, why are you so surprised with this soft sword? Also, what is spring steel? Mulan asked.

"Mulan, why do you have a soft sword at this time? Soft swords should be made of spring steel, why did they have soft swords at this time? Li Junxian asked in surprise.

Li Junxian is also secretly scolding himself now, he is so dull. Since there are a lot of soft swords in martial arts TV series, maybe there were soft swords in ancient times. Soft swords should be made of spring steel, which means that there should have been spring steel in ancient times. Li Junxian himself made the mistake of empiricism and believed too much in his own historical knowledge. Most of the history books that Li Junxian saw in later generations are official history books, and this kind of history books rarely records those scientific and technological inventions, which is also related to the fact that scientific and technological inventions were not paid much attention in ancient times. But Li Junxian only discovered now that there was spring steel in ancient times, which made Li Junxian speechless. Although spring steel in this era may not be called spring steel, there must be other names!

"General Li, the soft sword has actually been available for a long time, not only in our Tang Dynasty. Liu Kun of the Jin Dynasty once had a poem: 'What does it mean to make steel and turn it into finger wrapping.' I'm talking about a soft sword. Therefore, soft swords have been around since the Jin Dynasty, and they are not a new thing. ”

"Then why isn't the army equipped?" Li Junxian asked.

"General Li, this soft sword is not suitable as a weapon for the army. The soft sword can only be used for small-scale combat of any kind of ranger gangster, and cannot be used as a weapon for large army combat. What's more, the swordsmanship of the soft sword is too complicated for ordinary people to practice. The army pays attention to speed, accuracy and ruthlessness, which is not suitable for this kind of swordsmanship that is too complicated and has a lot of flashy swordsmanship. Mulan explained.

Li Junxian completely understood that this soft sword was not suitable for the army, because the method used was too complicated and required a long time of training. However, the army pays attention to the three words of speed, accuracy and ruthlessness. So this soft sword simply cannot be used by the people of the army. So, only those rangers will be able to use it. Li Junxian is in the army, so he doesn't know what soft swords he has for a while.

"And where is the workshop that produces soft swords?" Li Junxian asked.

"I don't know, this soft sword belongs to Qimen weapons, and I don't know very well. However, there aren't many people in this world who use soft swords, so let's ask that gangster! Mulan said.

Not long after, the two thugs who were fighting at the gate of the barracks came to Li Junxian's tent.

"You two, fighting at the gate of the barracks, what a big gut!" Li Junxian said first.

"General. We don't know when you came, we just know that this was an abandoned barracks, and we didn't care for a while. Please General, you have a lot of them, will you let us go? A man said.

"Say, what are your two names?" Li Junxian asked loudly.

One replied: "Villain Hu San." ”

The other also replied: "The villain Zhao Liu, he is from the same village." ”

"General Wei, what kind of crime do you say fighting at the gate of the barracks?" Li Junxian asked pretendedly.

"This is a crime that belongs to the light army, and it should be beheaded according to military law!" Mulan said very cooperatively.

"Please spare your life, General!" Hu San and Zhao Liu kowtowed again and again and begged for mercy.

"I want to live. Then it depends on whether you are honest or not. Say, whose soft sword is it? Li Junxian threw the soft sword in front of them.

"Him!" The two pointed at each other.

"Who the hell is it?" Li Junxian said angrily again.

Zhao Liu saw Li Junxian angry, and immediately pointed at Hu San and said, "It's him!" Checkmate. This sword is his! It's not mine, I have nothing to do with this sword! General, you have a wronged head, and you have a debtor. Don't look for me! ”

"Hu San? Is this sword yours? Li Junxian asked.

"Yes!" Hu San sighed and said.

Hu San felt that he was unlucky, and he didn't know how this soft sword made this great general angry. In Hu San's eyes, isn't it just a soft sword? What can get in the way of this general? There are not many such soft swords. But if you look hard, you can find it. But this general actually cares so much about this soft sword, which means that maybe this soft sword is very important to this general.

"General, as long as you let me go, I will definitely tell you the origin of this soft sword." Hu San said again and again.

"Presumptuous, why are you talking to me about conditions? If you don't answer, I'll have you clicked right away. Li Junxian said.

Hearing the word "click", Hu San's neck suddenly felt a little cold, and he didn't know what to say. However, Hu San was really good enough, and immediately continued to resist.

"General, unless you let me go, I won't say it." Hu San said liarly.

Hu San was sure that this general cared about this soft sword very much, so he actually had the courage to negotiate with Li Junxian. According to Li Junxian's scare, they were going to be beheaded, so Hu San wanted to leave his life behind.

"Good! You still dare to negotiate terms with me? I have to ......" Li Junxian was speechless for a while.

Because these two people were not guilty to death, Li Junxian could not order them to be cut down on the spot. After all, Li Junxian comes from a society ruled by law, and he will not easily deprive others of their lives. But this guy is so stubborn, Li Junxian has a headache. I didn't need to be scared if I knew it, but now it's self-defeating.

"Jun Xian, use torture, right?" Mulan whispered.

"Torture? This isn't quite right, right? Li Junxian replied.

The torture that Mulan said was torture to extract confessions. Li Junxian is very disgusted with this kind of behavior, because torture to extract confessions is a crime in later generations! Now Mulan is actually saying what torture, isn't this challenging Li Junxian's psychological bottom line?

"Jun Xian, it doesn't matter, anyway, these two gangsters, if they fight, what else can they do to you?" Mulan said.

"Ma Zhou, go and let someone beat this guy to me with thirty military sticks!" Li Junxian shouted, this kind of military law belongs to Ma Zhou, the political minister, to manage, and now the military justice department has not yet been formed, so he has to let the political minister personally manage it.

"Knock knock ......" Thirty military sticks soon began to fight.

"I confess! I'm recruiting! I'm recruiting! That Hu San shouted very spinelessly.

"Ma Zhou!"

"General Li, what's the matter?"

"Write down every word this guy has to say, I'll be useful." Li Junxian said.

"Okay!"

Anyway, Ma Zhou was originally Li Junxian's secretary, and now when there are not many literati in the army, he, the political minister, will go out in person. (To be continued......)
