When the steamship of the Great Song Dynasty master arrived at the port of the Iyo Naval Army, the people on board couldn't help but cheer. The damn steam engine broke down first, and another just after entering the Seto Inland Sea. Fortunately, everyone has not forgotten the sailing profession, and finally survived hundreds of miles of sea and arrived at the destination.

The sailors on the ship did not get the slightest sublimation of their souls because of the retro, and everyone complained and even scolded while operating nervously. Fortunately, the port of the Iyo Suigun has a storage of steam engine parts, and damaged parts can be replaced.

Although the master was also concerned about the voyage back, he would stay here for a month and take a boat back to the Great Song Dynasty. When he came ashore, he went to the knife foundry. When there was some distance from the gate, the master felt that something was not right. I couldn't see the smoke of the stove in the yard. When I arrived at the gate, I saw that the door number that originally read 'Knife Casting Field' was gone. The current wooden door sign reads the four Chinese characters of 'Water Army School'.

If you are a literate Japanese people, you will definitely laugh out loud when you see these four words. The naval army means pirate in the Wa Kingdom, and the naval school translated into Chinese means "pirate cultivation school". It's really ridiculous. However, the master is a Han Chinese, and he can only look at the world within the scope of Han people's understanding. He didn't have any feelings about the Navy's school at all. Calling the people who came in and out, the master asked, "Where did the original knife casting yard go here?" ”

The man stood respectfully in front of the master, looking up at the master with a humble smile, looking very deferential. The master waited for a while, and saw that the man stood there without speaking. He was a little anxious when he landed, and said loudly, "What are you doing standing here?" ”

Seeing that the master was annoyed, the man spoke: "&()...... &%…… ￥@#￥￥*”

Listening to the words that he didn't understand at all, the master suddenly realized that he was now in the Wa Kingdom. It's just that just looking at the clothes of the people on the street, and the Chinese characters all over the street, he mistakenly thought that he was just in a county overseas of the Great Song Dynasty where people generally have a low personal profile.

There was no way, the master went back to the port. I asked the person in charge of the Iyo Water Army, who was in charge of receiving the personnel of the Great Song Dynasty, and only then did I know that the foundry had moved. First stayed in the port for one night, and the next morning the master followed the people into the mountain. The group led the short-legged Yunnan horses that the Great Song Dynasty gave to the Wa Kingdom, and the Dian horses carried a lot of things sent to the knife casting field. There's steel, there's coke, there's some food, and whatever. After walking a long way along the mountain road, I saw a familiar smoke halfway down the mountain, which was the smoke peculiar to the stove.

When you walk in, you can see a flat land of several hundred square meters, and a small waterfall below it. The ground has been raised and buildings such as workshops have been built on top of it. When I arrived at the door, I saw the familiar door number, the knife casting field.

Once inside, it was quite spacious, and some teenagers were busy working inside. What makes the master feel friendly is the hydraulic equipment here. A dam was built next to the knife foundry. There was an aqueduct, and the water that came down pushed the water wheel produced in the Great Song Dynasty. Some of the water wheels are black, and they should have been blued. There are also water wheels that are dark gold, which should be gold-filled. In short, anti-rust treatment has been carried out.

The teenagers were busy and divided into several positions. Before, Zhao Guanjia asked the master of the Great Song Dynasty to tell the great monk who cast the Miaofa Village to this professional division of labor model. It is difficult for one person to fully master many processes, so there are very few masters who are proficient in knife casting. But everyone has their own talents, they can do a certain link far better than others, find out the link that everyone is proficient in, give them the opportunity to play to their strengths, you can form a strong knife casting team.

It can be seen that the two great monks who cast the Myofa Muramasa accepted the suggestion.

"Where have the two mages gone?" The master asked.

The child in charge of the reception here replied in broken Chinese: "The two masters have gone with the army to recite the scriptures." ”

The child was not lying, and the two great monks, dressed in robes, stood on a small slope on Tokushima and watched the battle between the Iyo naval army and the invading Shikoku army.

The enemy fired a large number of arrows from bamboo bows at the Iyo navy, and more than a thousand Iyo sailors in steel armor lined up in a neat queue and were not moved at all. After six rounds of bamboo bows, the enemy generals on the opposite side immediately ordered the army to attack. The Iyo Navy immediately marched forward in a neat formation under the command of the waist drummer.

One side of the army wears dyed bamboo armor and looks brightly colored. On one side, it is covered in black full-body armor, and there is even a visor on the helmet. After the two sides engaged, the hook and sickle of the Iyo naval army began to stab neatly. The bamboo spear or broadsword on the opposite side slashed at the steel armor, and it didn't hurt the Iyo Navy at all. The Iyo Naval Army's Hook and Scythe will inflict damage when it stabs an enemy. It didn't take long for the enemy formation to collapse and begin to flee. The Iyo Navy pursued and killed in the back unhurriedly.

"Nan no Amitabha, it seems that the katana is the most suitable for light armor or even unarmored soldiers." The great monk on the left sighed.

"Hmm. In the face of such armor and long-handled weapons, the katana is too bad. The great monk on the right expressed complete approval. He just paid attention to a guy with a katana in the shogunate army opposite, looking at the posture, this one is indeed a little capable. It's just that not long after the engagement, he fell to the ground and disappeared under the serial assassination of several hook and sickle guns. The two great monks were experts in martial arts and weapon-making, and they couldn't really say anything if they claimed in good conscience that the katana was omnipotent.

Looking at the one-sided killing, the great monk on the left sighed: "I don't know when the strife in this world will end." ”

The great monk on the right couldn't help but sigh: "Just what we can see, more than 10,000 people have died." Iniquity. ”

But no matter what the iniquity is done, there will be an end to this slaughter. After the battle, the two great monks went to the battlefield to recite the sutras, and then some people carried some corpses that had been stripped of their armor and clothes, and the two great monks first practiced and recited the five-character mantra of the 'Myoho-renge-kyo' a dozen times, and then drew the katana at their waists and slashed at the position under the breast of the corpse.

The sharp katana sliced into the flesh and stopped above the spine, slicing through about sixty or seventy percent of the parts. Both knives are done at a similar level. The great monk drew back the knife and wiped it clean first. He also recited the five-character mantra of 'Myoho-renge-kyo' more than a dozen times to the corpse used to test the knife.

Raising their heads and looking at each other, the great monk's eyes were full of joy. Their newly forged knives were already much sharper than they had been when they first came to Shikoku. And it also gets better in terms of feel.

'Myoho-renge-kyo', the great monk couldn't help but recite the five-character mantra again.
