Chapter 47: The Soldiers' Division, the Prototype Finally Takes Shape
Jiang Yang picked up an iron rod and stirred it in the pool while replenishing his knowledge.
From why iron turns into water, to pig iron, wrought iron, why the molten iron in the pool is stirred.
Word by word, it is very detailed.
"After smelting the wrought iron graphite crucible, you can get steel, which is far from being harder than iron."
"What is a graphite crucible?" Wang Pengyue asked honestly.
His blacksmith shop is a veritable century-old brand that has been passed down from their grandfather's generation to the present.
The techniques and experience in it are naturally superior ears, but what Jiang Yang said today is like opening the door to a new world for him, it is amazing.
"There is a kind of inkstone made of black stone, which is very cheap, and that kind of black stone is graphite."
Graphite crucible steelmaking is equivalent to using oxygen in the air as an oxidizing agent, blowing air into molten pig iron, and continuously tempering it at high temperatures to obtain steel.
Jiang Yang directly said the method, and explained to Wang Pengyue what should be paid attention to and what might happen to Wang Pengyue, of course, the specific principle is not clear.
Tell him about oxygen? To talk about the composition of this air, it is too troublesome.
For now, all you need to do is tell him how to do it.
"Your Highness is really a great talent, I looked down on people before, and in the future, I will ask my lord to give me some advice, regardless of my previous suspicions." After Wang Pengyue listened, he was convinced by Jiang Yang.
Get down on one knee and clench your hands into fists.
He didn't understand how a scholar who seemed to be weak could understand such a subtle method.
Could it be that it is from a book?
It seems that what the officials said is true, everything is inferior, only reading is high.
He is now completely convinced of Jiang Yang, but if he has something to say, he will move forward.
Jiang Yang also helped him up directly, and reciprocated the peach, and it was not appropriate for everyone to be holding it like this.
Patting Wang Pengyue on the shoulder, Jiang Yang spoke: "What you have learned now is only the tip of the iceberg. ”
"You know what? There are many wonderful things in this world, such as this steel, which he can forge weapons that are stronger than bows and arrows. ”
"You can also build a ship that sails on the sea with pure iron, and you can also build an iron wheel that can run on your own without a horse-drawn cart."
"Really! Are you sure? Wang Pengyue's throat squirmed, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he couldn't imagine what kind of magical thing it was.
"Really, as long as you are willing to learn, I will teach you in the future." Jiangyang Road.
"Yes, yes!"
"But before I do that, I have to ask you, can you still make a bet before? This gambling is a bit unfair, and the official is a little bullying you, but it's okay if you don't want to. Jiang Yang changed his tone and asked slowly.
Wang Pengyue nodded frantically: "I am willing to lose the bet, and besides, it is the blessing of my Wang Pengyue to be able to follow the adult." ”
As he spoke, he beckoned, and two more men came over.
"My lord, this is my second brother Wang Pengcheng, and my third brother Wang Pengju, both of whom are first-class iron strikers in ten miles and eight townships."
Saying that, Wang Pengyue turned his head to the two and said, "I made a bet with the adult, I lost, and from now on this blacksmith shop will be owned by the adult, do you understand?" ”
"Yes, I've seen adults."
I thought there were some twists and turns, but I didn't expect the two of them to nod in unison, without a ..... Unhappy.
Jiang Yang was strange, imagining, the second brother was unhappy with the third brother, the third brother stole a sister-in-law, and the sister-in-law poisoned the plot of the eldest brother.... Nope.
Putting away the fire of gossip, Jiang Yang Zhengse said: "In this case, you are the officials in the county government of this official, specializing in managing the affairs of iron striking and production equipment. ”
"But there's something very important for you right now." Jiang Yang said and asked the irrelevant people to retreat.
Slowly will build a new village, buy food but be robbed by horse bandits, and hint that this group of bandits may be against him.
"I need you to forge a batch of excellent armor weapons to arm a thousand villagers to the teeth." Jiang Yang said as he took out the drawings that had been designed long ago from his arms.
He took the best parts of each dynasty and combined them into a set of armor that not only made it easy to move but also provided protection.
In addition, this knife Jiang Yang used the most famous Mo knife in Datang, and it was also designed to be detachable.
It can be connected to the iron rod on the hilt, which is very convenient for the enemy.
"This kind of armor, as well as standard knives, guns and sticks, must all be made, and fast! In addition, there are bows and arrows, and there are no less arrows. ”
"Each one has to be made of steel, and the hardness has to be raised for me."
When the three of them looked at the drawings designed by Jiang Yang, they glanced at each other and said, "Don't worry, my lord, I will recruit blacksmiths to work all day and all night!" Guaranteed delivery as soon as possible. ”
"Okay, after you finish this matter, you will continue to recruit craftsmen to create things specifically for Xiami County, the more people the better, and if you don't have enough money, you can directly open your mouth to Wang Tong!" Jiang Yang waved his hand.
But Wang Tong only rolled his eyes, speechless, and it was a place where money was like flowing water, this iron ore, limestone and coke didn't look expensive, but it was a lot.
So much, how much does that cost?
Jiang Yang soaked in Wang Ji blacksmith shop for a day, and made his own guidance on the design of the mold, but Jiang Yang chose to shut up for the experience and technical work of Da Tie.
This kind of professional thing still has to be done by professional people.
In the afternoon, the first set of molds had been produced, and Wang Tong also sent someone to buy a large amount of graphite back.
Jiang Yang once again gave on-site instructions to turn pig iron into steel, and taught them how to quickly introduce mold molding.
It was getting dark, but Jiang Yang was reluctant to leave, because the first knife was about to be born.
This is made by the three brothers of the Wang family who do not eat or drink, and take turns to strike iron without stopping.
But looking at the blade, it is sharp, and when the handle is installed, Jiang Yang stretched out his hand and held it, there is a big pair, who dares to cross the knife immediately, only I have the momentum of General Peng.
With a slash, there was a sound in the air.
Jiang Yang let them choose some iron weapons, and the current Datang is almost at this level.
Placed in front of the table, Jiang Yang held the knife down, and it was cut off directly without much effort.
"My lord, this is too sharp."
"Yes, why bother with this knife?"
"Even when the armor is created, it is almost invulnerable, and I dare to rush up to kill the thief for the adults when the time comes!"
Jiang Yang waved his hand and said, "Okay, give me overtime to build!" Be sure to complete it on time and in quantity, and don't be lazy. ”。
The weapon is very fast because of the single mold and shooting, and the only thing Jiang Yang is worried about is the armor and whether the production can keep up.
However, looking at the strength of the Wang brothers, it is not much worse.
