Chapter 36 Steelmaking by Earth Method, Tang Dao
Sunrise and sunset.
Autumn is coming.
In Hakuba Village, the newly built castle wall seems to be a sign of a new era.
Early in the morning, Qinjia Textile Factory.
Chirp chirp chirp.
What you can see are women working one by one.
On the street, there are busy figures.
Some houses have been demolished, others are being built.
Houses are built taller, bigger, and stronger.
More people are going out with farm tools.
Autumn is the season of harvest.
This year is a good year and there will be a bumper harvest.
After the autumn harvest, every household will have a grain store, and with the grain stock, the people's hearts will be at ease.
There is an open lot in front of the village chief's house.
There were rings and windmills in the open space, which had originally been only one set, but now it has increased to three.
As soon as he reached the city gate, he saw people standing on the city wall.
It was a man sent out by the convoy who was in charge of standing guard every day.
Look farther away.
In the woods, a group of people are galloping with heavy loads on their backs.
This is the basic training every day, and there are some strange equipment in the woods, and from the eyes of the previous life, it is dumbbells, horizontal bars, ......
After weight training, it is a variety of functional training.
In the afternoon, they will be divided into two teams and have a real fight.
The number of convoys has grown from twelve to nearly thirty.
In terms of age distribution, it is a bit incongruous, with nearly half of the older ones.
As a convoy, it is naturally good to be young and strong.
But the truth is.
If you divide the older and the younger into two teams, you will lose the younger.
It's just because the older ones have been on the battlefield and come out of life and death.
These people were all survivors of the Battle of Yuque Pass, they were all reduced to slavery, and they each lived a life where they could not see the light of day, but now, they were gathered together and regained their freedom.
A group of veterans in the twilight have regained their hearts that have not yet cooled.
Finally, I looked at a village called Lanshan Village.
It was surrounded by mountains and rivers, and it used to have a good life, but a robbery by bandits killed some people in the village, some became disabled, and some survived.
The whole village was dragged into a slump.
Fortunately, the road to heaven is endless, and the village chief of White Horse Village found them and asked them to do something.
Although it is a little hard, at least I can ensure that I can eat a full stomach.
The man started going up the hill to mine something called limestone.
The woman used the process she had learned to turn limestone into cement with miraculous properties.
With the convenience of the river, most of the hard work was saved and the cement was transported to Baima Village.
The river that flows through Lanshan Village is called Qingshui River, and the mountain behind Lanshan Village is called Dieluan Mountain.
Right now, there is a boat coming to Dieluan Mountain along the Qingshui River.
I don't know how long......
There was a cheer from the mountains, "It's done." ”
In an open field, someone was looking at a freshly crafted weapon.
Not far away, there is an earthen blast furnace that has not long faded and is still red.
As participants, Mo Sanyuan and Pei Chen were both sweating profusely.
But compared to the fatigue of the body, the heart is more excited.
Successfully realized the local method of steelmaking, and used it to create a weapon.
This is a knife, but it is different from other knives, first of all, it is a black knife, the blade is straight, the tip of the knife is a figure-7 cutting blade design, and the edge is 60 degrees and straight.
According to the name of the previous life, this is a Tang knife.
Looking at history, the Tang knife is famous among all knife weapons.
Tang knife is good, but there is a drawback, it is expensive.
However, with the local method of steelmaking.
The principle of earth-based steelmaking is to build an unearthed blast furnace, use iron materials as raw materials, and burn wood into charcoal, so as to remove the excessive carbon in the iron, and reduce the carbon content to become steel.
Why did you choose the Tang knife as a weapon?
First, you don't need to worry about materials.
The second is that the Tang knife has been verified by history, although it has also been eliminated by history, but the reason is that its opponent at that time was an enemy wearing armor, and the Tang knife was good for slashing, and when facing an enemy wearing armor, the effect was far less than that of a blunt weapon.
But they don't need to face this problem, and the enemies that the convoy needs to face are not wearing armor.
As for whether you will encounter an enemy in armor one day.
It's too early to think about it.
At this stage, it is most appropriate to equip the escort team with Tang knives.
"Old man, come here and try this knife."
Fu Kuangbi is now Pei Chen's personal bodyguard, following him wherever he goes.
"Good knives."
As a veteran, you know the quality of a weapon as soon as you get started.
"Try it with your previous knife."
Say try, just try.
Fu Kuangbi held a knife in one hand and touched it.
Although he had expected the result to the greatest extent, when he saw that his original knife was broken in two, and the Tang knife was not damaged at all, Fu Kuangbi couldn't help but gasp.
His original knife is definitely not bad, it is definitely above the level, but it is broken like this, which can only show one thing, the Tang knife is really strong.
Looking at his broken knife, Fu Kuangbi couldn't help but feel distressed, this cost a lot of silver to buy.
Pei Chen patted him on the shoulder, "Isn't it just a broken copper and iron, if it's gone, it's gone, and this Tang knife will be yours in the future." ”
"This ...... It's also too precious. Fu Kuangbi really loved the Tang knife in his hand, but he still couldn't believe that he could have it.
"Precious things can only be valuable when they come in handy, not only you, but the rest of the escort team, I will also equip them with Tang knives."
What else can Fu Kuangbi say, the days of following Mr. are not short, but what he does to Mr. is still not shocked, really, everything that Mr. does is so scary.
Such a weapon that sharpens iron like clay is hard for others to find, but Mr. has to be assigned to the escort team.
"In the future, you will stay here, and if you have anything you need in life, just ask, and I will let someone arrange it." Pei Chen said to Mo Sanyuan.
Mo Sanyuan shook his head, "As long as there is a place to sleep and something to eat, there is no need for anything else." ”
His eyes were on the earthen blast furnace, which was his greatest pursuit.
"That's what you said...... I still have to say, you have to be leisurely, and you have to be hard in iron, I know that you like this thing, but you can't mess around, you must pay attention to the combination of work and rest. ”
To say that Pei Chen's only worry about Mo Sanyuan is that he is afraid that he will forget to sleep and eat too much, and he will lose himself by then.
"I will arrange a few people to help you, they can't leave here, old man, you arrange two more brothers, stay here in the future, and make sure that this place is safe."
"I see." Dealing with this matter, Fu Kuangbi can be said to attach more importance to it than Pei Chen, a place that can create a Tang knife, if something goes wrong, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Fortunately, there are many comrades-in-arms who can be trusted, and it is most appropriate for them to protect here.
It's steelmaking again, and it's the Tang knife again, and after a big fight, it's time to relax.
By the stream, a woman was fishing, barefoot and rolled up her sleeves, and even that did not spoil her image, like a goblin active in the woods.
When Pei Chen came, she happened to catch a fish.
When she saw Pei Chen, she was startled, the fish almost got out of her hand, and hurriedly hugged the fish with both hands and held the fish in her arms.
The picture is a fish struggling to jump on her chest.
That picture......
In particular, the clothes on her chest were wet because of this.
Seeing this scene, Pei Chen killed people...... I have the heart to kill fish.
His own woman was taken advantage of by a fish.
It's really unforgivable, and if I don't bake and cook you, it's really hard to get rid of the hatred in my heart.
"Husband, when did you come, it scared me." Qin Mi'er stuck out her little tongue.
Pei Chen stepped forward and pulled her out of the stream, grabbed the fish on her chest, and threw it into the wooden barrel on the side, "You had a lot of fun." ”
If you listen carefully to the tone, it is a little like a husband who is caught in bed.
"Husband, didn't say that he took me out to have fun today."
"Yes, of course, it's about having fun, but it also depends on who you play with." As she spoke, Pei Chen pushed her and leaned against the trees on the side.
There are trees behind him, Qin Mi'er has no way to retreat, but Pei Chen has no intention of stopping.
The body pressed against her little by little, pressing her to the point that she was short of breath, her face was flushed, and she was so anxious that she didn't know where to put her hands.
"Don't be afraid, there's no one here, and you won't be seen doing anything." Pei Chen said with a wicked smile.
Qin Mi'er responded in a low voice, "En" raised her head and looked at Pei Chen, "What does that husband want to do." ”
What do you have to do?
Pei Chen gritted his teeth and brewed for a long time.
"Okay, you goblin, you want to seduce me to break the gong, my iron-clad man, how can I make you satisfied, I'm sorry."
As he spoke, his hands were kneaded twice in the position where Qin Mi'er was taken advantage of by the fish, and then he was satisfied.
was molested like this, if it weren't for her back against the tree, Qin Mi'er would have sat down on the ground.
She leaned against the tree and supported her knees with her hands, so she could barely maintain her footing, and only then did she react, "Husband is jealous?" But it was just a fish. ”
After speaking, I couldn't help but eat and laugh.
I didn't expect my husband to be so cautious......
…… But I like it.
I will be jealous with a fish, am I such a person?
Pei Chen didn't bother to pay attention to Qin Mi'er, slapped the fish in the barrel to the stone, slapped it with a golden star, and then there was a burst of dissection.
Qin Mi'er wanted to laugh no matter how she looked at it, but she still held back her smile and helped her husband deal with the fish.
The harvest was very good, there were three fish in total, and the fish was also fat.
Qin Mi'er said that she had fished, which was not false at all, you must know that during the whole process, she did not use tools, but caught it with her bare hands.
In this way, she caught three fish, and the fishing skills can be seen.
After dissecting the fish, the scales are removed, and then firewood is found.
The picture is a bit pleasing to the eye, and you can see the beauty that only belongs to her from her.
She sometimes stroked the ends of her messy hair and smiled at Pei Chen.
At this time, Pei Chen will look at his nose and his nose and heart, so that he can sit still.
