Chapter 590: The Power of Steel

The empress and the civil and military officials didn't see anything wrong, Lin Zifan was restless, as if he wanted to suppress the sword flying out of his hand, and then together with the empress and the ministers, he looked at the dagger that was made by the empress casually......

Slav!

With one move, the dagger that was inserted into most of the floor instantly flew out and fell into her hand......

"The previous sword, after special refining, can't explain anything. ”

But the dagger was made casually, but the material used was not iron, but steel! ”

The empress held the dagger and gently touched the blade, making Lin Zifan grin for a while......

That is, the empress's strength is strong enough, otherwise, ordinary people touch the cold and shining blade with their hands, and even rub it back and forth...... Hell if you don't make a few big cuts.

"Your Majesty, try it with the minister's dagger!"

Hubu Li Shangshu jumped out, took out his dagger, and respectfully handed it to the empress.

Her dagger, which is more than a foot long, is more than a short knife, and it is quite heavy, which makes Lin Zifan speechless for a while.

How about comparing yourself to the same 'heavyweight' opponent......? It's completely out of a lot of heavyweights!

However, he didn't say anything, just smiled and watched.

'Heavyweight' is indeed different, and even Li Shangshu's dagger, in terms of size, is several times more than a steel dagger, but the real weight makes the empress stunned.

"Huh?"

Holding a dagger in each hand, the empress said abruptly: "This dagger, which seems to be small, is even several times heavier than Li Shangshu's dagger?"

As soon as these words came out, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty instantly changed color......

Weight, perhaps, says nothing. But the problem is that the difference in volume between the two sides at this moment is obvious, and it is clear that Li Shangshu's dagger should be heavier, but it turns out that it is all reversed......

What does this mean?

"It seems that the steelmaking method mentioned by Lin Shangshu really has merit!"

The empress looked at Lin Zifan in admiration, and then held a dagger in each hand and slashed towards the middle!

Because she was worried that the dagger was too fragile, it was described as the empress's strength was not large, or even very small.

Although with the power of the empress, even if it is a small strength in her eyes, it is definitely not small in the eyes of others......

Click!

The blades of the two daggers collided, and there was an instant click.

Then, everyone was stunned to see that the volume was several times that of the other party, and Li Shangshu's dagger, which was supposed to defeat the other party, was actually broken at this moment!

Yes, it's not just the gaps, it's ...... Break directly from the middle into two......

Jingling......

Half of the dagger fell to the ground, clanging, Li Shangshu saw this, and couldn't help but scream: "My dagger ......"

Although it is just an ordinary iron dagger, in Datang, a country where iron is more valuable than silver, Li Shangshu is distressed!

The rest of the ministers were not very distressed, on the contrary, they were very excited and surprised!

"Your Majesty, this dagger ......"

"I'll go, it's too sharp, isn't it?"

"Your Majesty must have used the same strength, but as a result, the dagger that was several times larger broke directly, on the other hand, this seemingly small dagger turned out to be ......"

"Hey, if you look closely, it's not just broken, it's not even the slightest chip!!

"Oh my God, your majesty is just a dagger in your hand, and it is so sharp and hard......? What the hell is this......"

The Manchu Dynasty and the civil and military forces were stunned!

Although they thought that what Lin Zifan said about refining into steel, steel must be better than iron, but they never thought that steel was so much better than iron!

So, at this moment, who can not be shocked?

Even the empress couldn't help but show surprise and felt very satisfied.

Only Lin Zifan shook his head lightly, but he didn't say anything.

Is steel powerful, and in many cases, it's better than iron, but it's not absolute......

To put it simply, steel is very hard, but at the same time, because of this, the steel lacks toughness and is easy to break, which is where it comes from!

If the critical point of steel fracture is reached, then steel is definitely more crisp than iron!

But the problem is that the temperature used by the empress is terrifyingly high! Although the dagger is made casually, in terms of material, it is already very extraordinary!

Even Lin Zifan was very suspicious that on the earth before the crossing, there was a kind of steel that could be better than the steel used in that dagger!

In other words, the seemingly ordinary dagger is no longer ordinary!

It seems simple, and the dagger that comes out of your hand is actually extraordinary, and it is not simple to cut off an ordinary iron dagger with your hand, isn't it simple, the most normal?

However, at this time, Lin Zifan did not disturb the interest of the empress and the civil and military officials, and waited until they played with the daggers one by one and gradually calmed down before saying: "Your Majesty, this dagger is so amazing because it comes from Your Majesty's hand!"

"The minister estimated that in the future, the daggers, weapons, and armor that we mass-produced will definitely be much different from them. ”

"But no matter how bad it is, it must be far better than the previous ordinary iron swords, iron knives, etc.!"

As for the armor or something...... I'm sorry, but where did Datang get the iron to make armor before? It's already nice to have a knife......

"Enough is enough!"

The empress smiled and nodded: "Even if it is only one-tenth of this dagger, it is much better than the current equipment of the soldiers!"

"What's more, the vast majority of soldiers now don't have iron tools at all?"

"If there is enough iron ore in Anshan, maybe soon, our Datang will no longer lack iron, right?"

seems to be talking to herself, but in fact, everyone understands that the empress is asking Lin Zifan.

After all, only Lin Zifan can understand these things, and others ...... Whether it is the empress or the civil and military officials, they can only watch the excitement.

"Iron ore, definitely a lot!" Lin Zifan said confidently!

After all, Naanshan is as tall as a cloud and covers a wide area. Even if the bottom of the mountain is full of dirt, and only above the horizon is iron ore, there will definitely be no less!

"But if in a short period of time, if we want our Datang to no longer lack iron, there is only one way......"

Lin Zifan was halfway through speaking, and suddenly stopped speaking, causing the empress and the civil and military officials to roll their eyes, and hurriedly asked, "What way?"

"Actually, this method is very simple, but it requires the cooperation of all of you. Lin Zifan smiled faintly, looked at the empress, and showed sincerity: "That's ...... Great steel!"
