The next three days.

Caught up in a long wait.

Now that it has gradually entered the summer, the spring ploughing in various places has been stabilized, and Xu Zhen concentrated on training after reaping a wave of self-discipline in internal affairs.

His three henchmen must be trained this year.

Especially the sword and shield soldiers, who have the ability to climb mountains and mountains, are actually trained as the Wudang Flying Army in his impression.

This kind of soldiers and horses who fight in special terrain will have a great stage on the real battlefield in the future.

In front of the barracks.

Xu Zhen waited with his hands behind his back, and the people next to him all looked sideways, and even felt uncomfortable.

Because he was not only standing and waiting, but he was even holding an ancient book in his hand and reading.

The brow is furrowed, quite serious, and it gives the impression that he is thinking.

[You read an hour book, self-discipline value +200]

[Self-discipline value: 39800]

Very good.

Xu Zhen closed the book and breathed a long sigh of relief.

Zhuge Liang next to him was full of envy.

Be your own person.

Can you still read books in this kind of place? It's really a strange person, it can't be a pretense, right?

"Master, what book are you reading? Can you really see it? Living in a noisy place, can you still see it? ”

Xu Zhen put the book behind his back and said lightly: "Only when you live in trouble and have peace in your heart can you go far." ”

"It's quiet, it's nothing, your thoughts don't have any boundaries, and you can use it at any time."

Zhuge Liang seems to understand whether he understands or not, but he does envy Xu Zhen's kind of heart.

This is, as ordinary people say, quiet and far-reaching.

Soon, horse-drawn carts transporting copper and iron came slowly, pulling a large amount of goods.

They first stayed in Lujiang for a day, during which they collected the iron pieces of resources stored in the Lujiang warehouse, loaded them into 80 carts, and transported them.

There are about 1,000 catties of goods in each car.

There was a lot of dust and smoke.

Xu Zhen couldn't help but chuckle when he saw this scene.

"The carriage can pull a thousand catties, and the pack is only two or three hundred."

Xu Zhen muttered.

Zhuge Liang immediately frowned, "How about the manpower cart?" ”

"If you use a wheel, each car can push a hundred catties, and it will be light to walk on rugged mountain roads, and you can go over mountains and mountains."

"If you carry only a few dozen catties, you can't travel for a long time, but you can walk with a wheelbarrow, rugged mountain roads, mountains and forests, and dense roads can save the road, so you can save half of the road, and you can transport grain to arrive."

Xu Zhen immediately raised his eyebrows, and glanced at Zhuge Liang in surprise, "You thought of it?" ”

"I thought of it, I thought of it! Think again, students! You don't have to think hard about what wooden cows and flowing horses. ”

"If you can improve the cart, go on a wheel, carry the cart, and the grain and grass will be enough to walk the path!"

"Thank you, Master!"

Every time he thinks about something, he will focus on it, and his heart will be happy.

Now there are more than 17, close to 18, and the mind is still like this, if you have something, you are ecstatic, if you don't have it, you think about it day and night.

If you pour out your heart, there will be a response from heaven.

Xu Zhen didn't look at it much, just stared at Zhuge Liang's back.

Copper and iron arrived.

More than 400 blacksmiths in the army followed Xu Zhen to collect it, and began to raise the furnace to melt iron, forging repeatedly.

The weather gradually warmed up, and Pu Feng and the others immediately fought shirtless, not only hard.

Xu Zhen also rolled up his sleeves and helped them.

"Come on, I'll help you guys."

Xu Zhen raised the hem of his robe and tied it to his belt, his arms strong and powerful, and he fell easily with a hammer.

The speed is extremely fast, but the force is also even, and every stroke can be hit in uneven places.

After a hundred hammers, the rudimentary shape of an iron knife blade felt a little straight.

At this moment, the guards outside the crowd looked left and right, and then looked at Xu Zhen's expression, serious and serious.

Naturally, my heart was also shocked.

"The prince refines the sword, but he refines it for us."

"Let's go and stand here...... I feel guilty. ”

"Yes, anyway, I won't go out on patrol now, just rest more at night."

"The prince's status is noble, and he is willing to forge iron himself, and in my opinion, this is by no means pretending."

Several people immediately decided to go together to help.

It's a pity that there are so many stoves, Pu Feng looked back and saw that so many people were unloading their armor, and immediately stepped forward and said, "Brothers." ”

"If you want to help, it's better to move the boulders first, and build furnaces side by side today, if you can get a thousand furnaces, you can get a hundred forging knives in a month. If not, you don't have to help, the stove is no longer enough, and it will be in vain! However, it is difficult to take stones, so let's slow down gradually. ”

"Let's go get a boulder and sharpen it!!"

Someone immediately shouted.

"Let's go, let's go, there are a lot of stone piles on Xiaotang Mountain, just take them and dry and cut noodles."

"Okay, get moving, let me go!"

"Yu Zecheng! Go call someone immediately. ”

"Whoa!"

At this time, the crowd was excited, calling friends and leaving, and after removing the armor, everyone was very strong, either with a tiger's back or a strong and sturdy.

Walk like the wind, carry a hammer, shovel, hoe and go out.

These appliances with different functions in the barracks, Pu Feng and others will still pile up and fight on weekdays.

Such a lively common, Pu Feng has not seen it in all these years.

At the beginning, there were not enough manpower, at most, Dian Wei brought 300 dead soldiers to help knock iron.

Pu Feng looked up, and this scene shocked his heart.

Junhou didn't need to say anything, he just changed his armor, struck iron seriously, and sweated a hundred hammers.

Ten hammers and one temper, melt the fire in the furnace.

After slowly understanding the art of thrashing, he gradually became proficient, and in the process, he has been focusing on this matter.

Like a sun, radiant.

In the crowd, a childish young man was also striking iron at this time, but his hand strength was still small, and he could only use a small hammer, but the number of beatings was faster than others, and the bulges could be smoothed out faster.

Even, the skill of the subtle plus iron melted into it, repeatedly beaten.

And through rapid repeated beating, a slender piece of iron becomes more solid.

Seeing this scene, Pu Feng sighed deeply and said, "Yuan'er." ”

"Huh!"

Pu Yuan raised his head, his white face was covered with beads of sweat, but he still smiled.

He is keen on this, but he doesn't need anyone's encouragement, and he won't regard it as a family inheritance, and he doesn't deliberately insist on it for Xu Zhen.

It's just a passion for it.

"Go and help your favorite Uncle Junhou."

"Good!"

Pu Yuan had a straw rope tied to his head and his hair, and his complexion was still relatively white and bright, not stained by soot, but his arms and hands were already full of black mud.

Laughing, when he doesn't smile, his face is serious, although he is only eleven years old, he has been following Xu Zhen for four years.

In the past four years, he has been running with his family, never complaining, and even interested in observing every time he strikes iron, so over time, dozens of elders have taught by word and deed, saying many things that have not been recorded in books.

At this time, of course, Xu Zhen knew that he was coming, but he was still hammering for the time being, staying focused.

"Yuan'er," Xu Zhen looked up and laughed, one foot straddled on the stone steps and thrashed, the force in his hand was always even, very beautiful.

Seeing that Pu Yuan also fell into a god.

"Tell me, why do you keep thrashing?"

"The sword is like a person, and it can stand up to thousands of tempers before it can stand upright!" Pu Yuan's voice is clear and crisp.

This was taught to him by Xu Zhen before, of course, when he was with Zhuge Liang, he spoke by the way.

But the kid always remembered.

"Yes, the method of a hundred refinements, only in this way can you produce a sword and a sword."

If it is a frying steel method, you can also get a large number of blades, but the kind of knife that is mass-produced can't stop you from cutting horizontally.

"The same is true for leading troops, tempered thousands of times, in order to have the strength of the condensed steel, firm and unbreakable!"

"But, Uncle Junhou."

Pu Yuan blinked and stared at Xu Zhen.

"Yuan'er thinks that the blade and the back of the knife are used in different ways, the blade needs to be sharp and not broken, and the back of the knife needs to be supported and flexible.

Xu Zhen was suddenly stunned.

Quite unexpectedly stared at the six-foot-tall boy in front of him, knowing so much?

"Go on." Xu Zhen said curiously.

"Wrought iron, when removing impurities for pig iron, beating can indeed go, but it can't be knocked violently, but gradually and finely beating, which can be more effective, and the effect is still low."

"Yuan'er found that after beating a hundred times, the iron melts more slowly, while the iron smelted from the ore melts faster."

"If they could be melted separately, wouldn't the pig iron be melted in wrought iron first, but would have become harder."

"It saves a lot of time, and Yuan'er knows that Uncle Junhou doesn't like to waste time the most."

Xu Zhen was immediately stunned, I'm afraid this is not ...... The prototype of the steel filling method?!

Suku Iron Knife!?

As he said just now, removing impurities is the separation and decarburization of iron slag, right?

Xu Zhen doesn't understand at all, but there are talents who specialize in art from generation to generation, Pu Yuan is young, and he has no status in the family, so naturally what he says will be regarded as a scoundrel.

And doesn't care.

And when he grows up, the war is still there, and he can calm down and think about it again, I don't know how much more he can remember.

"Yuan'er, do you want to make meritorious service and become an official?"

"Yes!"

Pu Yuan's eyes lit up immediately, he knew that this uncle Junhou was full of his words, and he would always do what he said.

"Okay, I'll let you tell your father what you think."

"Really! My father taught me not to think about it! What about striking iron with peace of mind, does my uncle think that my discovery is novel? ”

"Not only is it novel, but it's also extremely useful! If you think about it more, maybe you will change the whole troubled world! ”

"Wow!"

How much weight this sentence occupies in a child's heart, Xu Zhen estimates that he will never be able to understand.

"Then will I be able to go back to my hometown then?"

"Maybe."

Xu Zhen touched his head.

……

In the afternoon of the same day, 3,000 soldiers and horses of the Sword and Shield Battalion, under the mutual moral kidnapping, desperately carried a large number of stones back.

I was so tired that my limbs were sore.

Xu Zhen had already summoned the craftsmen and asked Pu Yuan to speak his thoughts over and over again.

So starting with Pu Feng, I accepted this fact, and began to study and discuss.

Xu Zhen has been listening to the whole process.

By sunset, it was Xu Zhen, Zhuge Liang, Dian Wei, Zhao Yun and others, all listening and shocked.

When the evening came, the soldiers of the Sword and Shield Battalion had nothing to do, and they all gathered around this wide plain.

Join the discussion and even ask questions.

So, because of the clues put forward by a teenager, Pu Feng and other hundreds of craftsmen had to continue to discuss under the attention of Xu Zhen and the soldiers of the whole battalion.

Eventually, three days later, the attempt began.

Build a furnace and divide it into two layers, and burn it with coal fire to heat it up.

Because the reaction was too violent, Pu Feng felt that there might be danger of the fryer, so it failed.

But I saw improvements.

On the fifth day, Xu Zhen had completely handed over this time to the two fathers and sons, and was very confident that he would be able to accomplish the feat.

……

And so, a month passed.

Xu Zhen trained the sword and shield soldiers on this day to walk in the mountains, and began to run back with their loads, when they arrived in the barracks.

Pu Feng still has no news.

But Xu Zhen finally saved his self-discipline value to 50,000.

At the same time, the training of the three battalions, the sword and shield battalion has been completely stuck at 99.99%.

The other battalions are still slowly approaching this number.

The armored cavalry was trained by Zhang Liao.

Crossbow arrows don't make crossbows at all, so they haven't even started yet, but if they break through, they can be very fast.

That's not a worry.

In March of training, Xu Zhen didn't believe that this limited-time mission would not give him a huge reward.

So he has been practicing day and night, not asking about the future, but doing the present.

Now self-discipline is worth 50,000.

It's not easy to save.

Xu Zhen opened his attribute panel.

Found the [Good Martial Arts] trait.

I chose to improve the quality.

[Self-discipline value-50000]

["Good Martial Arts" upgraded to "Martial Soul"]

Upgraded from Common, to Bright Silver Rare quality.

[Martial Soul: All martial arts-related harvests have been increased by 30%, and now you will be more comfortable learning martial arts, and your thoughts will be clear; Now your reflexes and focus will increase during battle, until you reach your limits. 】

[Now, your martial arts proficiency limit has been increased to "Perfected Realm"]

"10% more harvest, from the peak of the peak to the realm of perfection."

"As for the two states, you have to fight with people on the spot to feel it."

Xu Zhen secretly calculated, and felt a lot more relieved.

"But in troubled times, it is as strong as Lu Bu will still die, which shows that personal bravery cannot save his life."

"Still work to be done!"

As a prince, the situation is more dangerous than back then, but the higher the rank, the more you will gain.

To take the chestnut from the fire, it should be brave and diligent.

Danger often arises inadvertently.

The next time you accumulate self-discipline, you should focus on increasing [Battle Body].

The minions of the first are stronger, and then the physique is stronger.

Xu Zhen breathed a long sigh of relief, and after hoarding, he spent it all in one go, and then he felt that he had gained something, which made him feel comfortable.

"When you can increase 100 million points and break through 3,000 armors with one sword, you will be arrogant."

Xu Zhen secretly made up his mind, and now his dream is no longer as simple as reaching three hundred and five by force.

"Prince!"

"There's a pair of armor blades missing from the camp."

At this moment, Dian Wei came in from outside the tent, his face was a little serious.

"What's the situation?"

"I went back to count today, and found that there was one less person in the guard, and I thought there were deserters."

"After searching for the night, the man was captured in a col by the river twenty miles away, and his armor had been stripped of, and it seemed that the assassins had entered the barracks, and they were in the camp."

"What about the man?"

Xu Zhen frowned.

Look, just thinking that danger is coming at any time, this is immediately discovering one.

Fortunately, although Dian Wei is not careful, he will not get by, and after patrolling every day, he knows that the person is missing and finds out to go to twenty miles.

"The man is still by the river, I will tell him not to come back, so as not to startle the snake."

"Well......" This feeling is like a man's back.

"Go and protect my son and expose me."

Dian Wei was stunned for a moment and asked, "Are you sure?" ”

"If you can prevent it, you will have it."
