Ou Yezi led the craftsmen as supervisors, as well as more than 1,000 soldiers sent by Wang Qi, to take the land, dig Ci Mountain, drain its stream, open mines, and take iron and stone to smelt iron.

Ou Yezi built a furnace in Handi, cleaned it with the water of a mountain spring, and used ten people to shake the bellows to ignite the furnace fire and fill it with iron ore. This process has been repeated countless times over the years, but iron ore is extremely difficult to smelt compared to copper ore.

However, after years of hard work and several changes to these tools, Ou Yezi felt that he was getting closer and closer to success.

Ten strong men pulled the bellows, and the charcoal fire rose to a height of several feet, and the rolling heat spread in all directions. With the bellows pulling, the temperature in the furnace is getting higher and higher, and the iron ore placed in it finally begins to melt little by little.

Zijue woke up from his slumber, and this time the system reminded him that there was an epoch-making event. Zijue quickly swept through the history of these years, and then looked at Handi.

"Ou Yezi!"

"Is this the Iron Age?"

Zi Jue raised his head and saw the general momentum and luck in the void of the cave world. With the emergence of the Huai Kingdom, the influence on the world is increasing, and the world has begun to move forward, and the Western Zhou and Eastern Zhou have a history of about 800 years. After the promotion of the Huai State, the four hundred years have reached the end of the Spring and Autumn Period.

The Warring States period has a maximum of two hundred years, so that the Bang Zhou period is at least two hundred years shorter.

But this is also a good thing, it has promoted the development of society, the progress of science and technology, and let the society enter the feudal system.

"Ou Yezi smelts iron sword, it turns out that this is the beginning of the Iron Age!"

Zi Jue's body moved slightly, and in the next second, he had already appeared in the sky above the Han land, looking not far away, hundreds of people were running the ironmaking workshop in an orderly manner. A large amount of selected charcoal is fed into the furnace, and the temperature of the furnace rises, and the iron ore begins to burn red, then soften, and finally melts little by little.

It's just that the temperature of the furnace is not enough to turn all the iron into liquid, so the calcined iron ore is not thorough, but even so, it can already be used to forge weapons.

Then Zijue saw Ou Yezi make the smelted iron into weapons little by little.

After the forging of the third weapon was completed, in the void, the general trend that had been condensing underwent a transformation, and in the next second, three points of light fell from the sky.

The white rainbow ran through the sun, and the three-point meteor fell into the ground, submerged into the three freshly forged swords, and suddenly there seemed to be some charm on these three swords.

Legend has it that Ou Yezi smelted the sword, the rain master cast a spell to sprinkle the rain, Lei Gong hit the machine, the dragon held the ore, the emperor loaded the charcoal mine, and the gods of Taiyi and Tianjing also went down to watch. Ou Yezi then followed the spirit of the heavens, exerted all his sword-casting skills, and cast three divine swords, one called Longyuan, the second called Tai'a, and the third called Gongbu.

After forging the three divine swords, Ou Yezi sent the three divine swords to Huai'an under the escort of the soldiers.

Wang Qi looked at the three divine swords in front of him, and when these three divine swords appeared in front of him, he felt that there was a special power contained on the divine sword.

Immediately, Wang Qi's arm was slightly forced, and a sonorous sword roar sounded, and a bright sword light flashed.

"Your Majesty, these three sharp swords are forged from evil gold, and they are extremely sharp, and they are as sharp as clay!" Ou Yezi said.

Wang Qi nodded, and then shouted.

"Mercy!"

"Your Majesty, your minister!" A guard next to him stepped forward and arched his hand.

Wang Qi didn't look back, and said directly, "Pull out your sword!"

"Sonorous."

Min drew his sword from his belt.

Wang Qi swung his sword at the bronze sword and slashed down, only to hear the sound of the bell, the bronze sword in his hand was directly cut off.

Everyone was shocked, you must know that as a close attendant of Huaigong, his weapon is also a fine bronze sword, but he didn't expect to be cut off by this iron sword.

Wang Qi was greatly surprised that there was not a trace of scar on this sword.

"Sure enough, it's a divine sword!"

"Your Majesty, this

On the day when the three swords were cast, there was a white rainbow in the sky, and three points of brilliance fell from the sky and did not enter it, so the three swords have hidden divine light, and please name them!" Ou Yezi said.

"Then one is called Longyuan, the second is Tai'a, and the third is Gongbu," Wang Qi said.

[Huaxia Divine Sword Mission: The Wang family obtains the three divine swords of Longyuan, Tai'a, and Gongbu, and the children of the Wang family can obtain the blessing of three attribute points, (temporary, the bonus attribute disappears after losing the divine sword)]

[The three attributes of the children of the Huaiguo Mansion, internal affairs, scheming, and commander gain +1]

[You get a lot of luck points, and you get the item reward Ground Tier Only Item: Kirin Delivery]

[The only prop of the ground level: Qilin Child: After use, you can choose a woman to give birth to a son after pregnancy, and her son is a Qilin life, with excellent qualifications. 】

......

"Mastercraft, can this iron sword be forged in large quantities?"

"Your Majesty, these three swords were refined by chance, and if you let your subordinates forge them, your subordinates will not be able to forge them!" Ou Yezi said helplessly.

When Wang Qi heard this, he was disappointed.

"But although this kind of divine sword can't be forged, the iron sword can still be forged." Ou Yezi continued, "Your Majesty, your subordinates have ordered someone to forge a batch of iron swords!"

"It's been forged, let people send it!"

Soon more than ten iron swords were sent over, these iron swords were also cold and shining, Wang Qi ordered people to try these iron swords, although far less than the three divine swords, but compared to the bronze sword is still a lot stronger.

"Your Majesty, these iron swords are indeed better than bronze swords." Min put down the iron sword in his hand and said, "Bronze swords are rarely two feet long, but these iron swords are three feet long, not only are they sharp and unstoppable, but the sword is one foot long, so you can have an advantage on the battlefield."

"If my Huai army is equipped with an iron sword, who can stop my Huai army on the battlefield?"

Wang Qi also felt that the iron sword had a greater advantage, so he asked, "Is it more difficult to make an iron sword than a bronze sword?"

"Your Majesty, the forging of the iron sword is more difficult than the bronze sword, but it is extremely difficult to further the bronze sword casting technique, but the iron sword forging technique has a lot of room for improvement, if there is enough time, manpower, and material resources, the difficulty of forging the iron sword can definitely be lower than that of the bronze sword."

"And your lord, iron is lighter than bronze, and the texture is harder, and if it is made into armor, it is lighter than bronze armor, and the defense is also high."

Wang Qi immediately said: "The craftsman is the master of the superintendent and the master of Ou Yezi, and he has made meritorious contributions to the sword, rewarded 500 households with food, and ordered him to continue to improve the iron sword forging process."

"The craftsmen will supervise the other masters, and they will be rewarded according to their merits!"

Ou Yezi and many master craftsmen bowed down one after another, and for a while, in the hall, they all chanted, 'Huai Guo Wan Nian.

——

With the advent of iron swords, bronze weapons began to gradually withdraw from the battlefield, and at the same time, the expensive cost also made bronze swords begin to withdraw from the stage of history. In the same way, the appearance of iron tools made the battlefield more and more fierce, and the disputes between the countries of Bangzhou became more intense. ——The Cambridge History of Ancient China: The History of the Warring States.

Ou Yezi, a native of Huai in the late Spring and Autumn Period, was ordered by Huaizhuang Xianggong to cast a sword, and went to Fujian and Zhejiang to find a suitable place to cast a sword, and after three years cast five swords: Zhanlu, Chunjun, Shengxie, Fish Intestine, Juque. He was also ordered by Huai Gong to cast the three swords of Longyuan, Tai'a and Gongbu. - "The Biography of Ou Yezi"
