Chapter 13 Midwifery forceps and the Norwegians

"Knowing that the end is as inevitable as prophesied, the Norse faithful secretly follow the teachings of the Eda Sutra, believing that it is your paraphrase of the god Io."

"They claim that you are the Io's chosen prophet and leader of the race."

"You have founded a new faith, Ioism."

"Trait Gained: Faith Leader (Charisma +1, Monthly Piety +1, Fellow Faith +10)"

"Consumable Piety to Establish Core Doctrines"

"One core doctrine is now free to be established"

The Norse farmers, who had heard their fill of the story, left contentedly.

Feng Daofu looked at their backs and said, "Surprise." ”

Before nationalism and ideology were born, the best thing to use was faith.

What is the strongest form in this version of faith?

Crescent moon.

Of all the religions of all civilizations in human history, the crescent moon has the greatest ability to assimilate.

Absorb the advantages of the crescent moon and make up for the advantages of the other two major religions.

Posthumous trial, encouragement of childbirth, leniency in and strict exit, infiltration of life, social welfare, medical and social security, trafficking anxiety, doing good deeds and accumulating virtue......

This is called the cross/crescent/10,000-character three repairs!

The great religions of the world copy each other, the new moon can write fan fiction for the cross, and I can also do the Nordic version according to local conditions.

The heavenly Yego, Mogo, and Mugo did not speak, which was obviously a tacit acquiescence to him joining in, and the three families of Abraham became the four heavenly kings!

How could he live up to the kindness of his three good brothers!

Now spread it among relatives and friends in the surrounding area.

When you have a little strength, you can come hard.

Do you believe Io?

Boy, don't believe it, do you? Chopped!

Sometimes brutal assimilation policies can consolidate domination and are also suitable for Northern Europe.

When you hold the pen, the gun, and the money bag, things will be easy to do.

Believers pay 10% tax, non-believers pay 50% tax, believe it or not?

If you believe in bread and cheese benefits, you can also enjoy medical care, do you believe it or not?

Now there are no three, but fortunately, there is a panel, and Feng Daofu is thick-skinned and can fool, and finally pulled the first batch of descendants who started the family.

"Although I don't want to admit it, it is indeed much easier to follow the medieval stick route than to climb the industrial technology tree."

Feng Daofu said: "I don't want to be a god stick leader as an engineering student, but I can't help it, it's too fragrant to be the son of the version." ”

It is the limited quality of their first batch of believers, and the solidification of cognition.

Vondolph tried to teach them how to read and write, or to be in the same relationship with the Germanic language family, and it is said that foreigners can learn simplified English in three days.

In this way, they still have a very low concentration in learning, and they can't learn well in a few months.

It's not that I don't want to learn, it's just that I haven't developed a habit of studying, plus I lack motivation.

It's not that the oppressed can't live, and there is no desire to change the status quo.

They don't live too nourishing by themselves, but at least they don't have to worry about food and clothing, they have a house, a land and a wife, but they will worry about the children's future.

Of course, I would rather listen to Dorf Feng tell stories than study.

Listening to novels is much cooler than learning a foreign language.

Feng Daofu did not force it, but first settled, starting from the new generation.

So looking at the list of core doctrines, Vondolph made a choice in an instant.

"Set the core doctrine: Holy Childbirth (+10% fertility for believers, βˆ’50% for pregnancy complications for believers, a chance for parents to convert to piety at the birth of their child, and consider pregnancy to be a virtue)"

Feng Daofu was in a happy mood: "The efficiency of treating people alone is too slow, and I am worried about where to find a missionary entry point. ”

In the game, this doctrine is dead to the T3 level, so you can just change it if you want to change it.

But in reality, whether it is to explode the population or to convert parents, it is the T0 level.

Coupled with the three teachings of the initiate...... Steady!

Vondolph was delighted.

The left hand is about the same, and it's time to start working in the bank.

Vondolph came to the workshop and first drew a pattern of detached pliers.

I thought about the number of mothers Margaret said, and the body shape of the Nose woman observed for most of the month.

Vondolph drew several other forceps.

After a little fine-tuning, Vondolph called Vera.

Vera wiped her hand on her apron: "Master? ”

"Be my assistant and help me forge something."

Vondolph pointed to the sketch on the ground

Vera tilted her head, her face full of confusion, but she didn't ask.

Whatever the host says, it's what it is.

To her surprise, Vondolph explained: "This is the wisdom I received from Io, and it is called midwifery forceps. ”

"Have you ever seen a woman give birth?"

"Yes."

Da Mao Luo nodded: "When I was a child, when my mother gave birth to my younger brother, I was next to me, and I still have some impressions. ”

That was when you were still in the Slavic farmstead?

Slavs on the Baltic coast...... Feng Daofu said: "Midwifery forceps are like forceps clamping things, clamping the head of the fetus, assisting the fetus to be delivered, making it easier for women to have a difficult birth, and making it easier for the baby to be born in this world and cry, which is a very useful job... Relic of Io. ”

This small thing alone can significantly reduce the mortality rate of women in difficult births.

The initial distillation of alcohol with malt liquor and a simplified aseptic procedure can reduce mortality by at least 50%.

Of course, there are disadvantages to midwifery forceps, but they are not hidden.

If you add the bonus of Holy Childbirth to reduce the risk of childbirth to the modern level, then there is nothing wrong with saying that the Holy Relic is not a problem.

Big hairy raper opened her eyes wide and let out an exclamation.

Then she wondered: "Why is the master telling me this?" ”

"Because I'm going to train you how to use it."

"I can't deliver all the babies alone, all humans are my brothers and sisters, and I need more people to help them," Vondolph said. ”

Vera looked at the drawings and was not confident: "I, can I really do it?" ”

"Of course, it's a bit difficult to use."

"I'll make a practice tool out of a leather bag and a wooden ball to teach you how to use the relics," said Vondolph. ”

"By the way, you'll also have to train you in the rituals before you use them, as well as the utensils that hold the holy relics."

The Crescent Moon is best known for its missionary work through rituals.

What ritual can be stronger than the Holy Childbirth + Io Relic that can really reduce the rate of dystocia?

Vondolph looked at the big hairy carrot.

Midwife? It doesn't smell like that.

Let's call it the Valkyrie of the World!

The Valkyrie is a god chosen by the gods to serve the gods, master the holy birth ceremony and the Io holy relics, and bring new life to the world, so it is no problem to say that she is a human Valkyrie.

The holy childbirth ceremony is combined with the knowledge of hygiene and disinfection, plus some knowledge of replenishing energy, midwifery, and speeding up postpartum recovery, to subtly improve habits and improve disease resistance......

Vondolph quickly filled in the empty shelves of the Iojiao.

"Promoting through religion is more useful than saying it a thousand times...... Let's get things done first. ”

I've only seen it before, but I haven't done it before.

As an engineering student, Feng Dolph knows too well that this seemingly simple tool is actually not simple at all.

Maybe the change of the little arc of the clamp arm is the crystallization of countless people's efforts, and if you make an error at this point, it is easy to hurt the baby when it is used in midwifery.

Feng Dolph first deduced repeatedly, and also knocked on wrought iron to simulate.

Vera's little face tensed, and she took out 100% of her focus to help Vondolph.

Vondolph found himself only able to exert 50% of his focus.

Especially when she's stepping on a blower.

Misstep, next time I should look for long-haired dill ... No, it's still a little hairy carrot.

Xiao Maoluo is shrewd and thoughtful, so she trains well when she is an assistant.

It's just that her strength is too small, but fortunately, there will be a group of child laborers soon, and the problem of manpower shortage will be solved.

Clang!

Clang!

In the face of extremely harsh, ditchy, and imminent super difficult challenges, the black-haired little blacksmith completed the improvement of the first trumpet tong with strong interference!

When the temperature was about the same, Feng Dolph gathered away his distractions and picked up pliers to clamp a piece of pig iron.

For obstetrics and gynecology, considering the use environment, the smaller the size of the midwifery forceps, the better, so there is no choice of cast iron and wrought iron with insufficient strength.

Vondolph is going to use the rubbing process this time.

The iron frying method + steel filling method is a production mode that only the official family has to organize with manpower.

For small handicraft workshops from all over the world, rubbing and seepage steel is a good replacement.

On wrought iron or mild steel forging billet, a thin layer of pig iron is rubbed or drizzled, and the carbon atoms of pig iron are used to carry out high-temperature solid carburizing, which strengthens the surface and becomes wear-resistant and tough.

It is a deformation heat treatment composite process that combines forging, casting and heat treatment, and has been passed down for thousands of years.

While saving man-hours, there are also shortcomings such as weak carburizing ability, difficult quality control, and insufficient homogeneity.

It can only be strengthened and strengthened for living utensils, and is not suitable for weapons, but it can be used to harden the armor of the armor, and the strength of the single piece is high, which can reduce the total number of armor pieces and reduce the overall weight.

For the purpose of midwifery forceps, a hardening of the surface is sufficient.

There is no shortage of wrought iron and pig iron at home.

Pig iron, in particular, is almost piled up in a cellar.

In Roman times, due to the lack of technology to use pig iron, pig iron was called pig iron, and a large amount of pig iron was discarded on the slag hill of the ironworks.

It is also because of the irrational use of iron, and it is necessary to make as little pig iron as possible when making iron, so this reason also limits the continued growth of iron-making furnaces in Europe.

The result of continuous optimization is the Cattelan wrought iron furnace that can be reused and produced continuously, and then the history of modern smelting.

The blacksmith's previous stock of pig iron, now convenient for Vondolph.

Feng Dolph held the pig iron in his left hand and kept rubbing the surface of the wrought iron midwifery forceps.

This step requires a lot of experience.

Feng Dolph, who had no experience, found that he seemed to have a vague grasp of the process.

This time it is much stronger than the last time when the wrought iron samarium knife was forged, or the additional cost of steelmaking can only be maximized when it comes to 'steelmaking'.

Originally, it was a fog of war, and the blacksmith could only rely on experience to determine where there was no carbon and where there was too much rubbing.

Now with the steelmaking +150% metaphysical metallographic induction, the carburizing of the embryo is like opening the whole map, and Feng Daofu controls it much more accurately.

Where to show white rubbing.

I'll just rub it off, and I won't go deeper.

After rubbing his whole body around, leaving his own carbon traces, Feng Daofu was satisfied with the embryo and put it into the water.

Multiply!

The high-temperature embryo enters the water quenching barrel, and a large number of water bubbles tumble in an instant.

Feng Daofu stared at the embryo, maximizing the metaphysical induction.

500℃...... 400℃...... 350℃......

300℃!

Feng Daofu immediately lifted the embryo, and coherently submerged it into the oil quenching barrel to do a water-oil double quenching process.

First water quenching and fast cooling, and then oil quenching and slow cooling, the microstructure stress and thermal stress are relatively small, and the strength and toughness are both.

The disadvantage is that it is difficult to operate, and if the temperature is not grasped well, it is not strong and tough.

In particular, the rubbing process is used, the carburizing is uneven, the temperature is not well controlled, and it is easy to quench into broken ice, which is a great test of experience and skills.

The metaphysical induction is powerful enough, the quenching process is like divine help, and Feng Daofu succeeds at one time.

After degreasing and cleaning the embryos, Feng Dolph fine-tuned them a little, and a pair of carbon steel midwifery forceps was born.

"Successfully forge a treasure prototype and forge an upgrade!"

"Gain Specialty - Master Steelmaker (Steelmaking Efficiency +150%)"

"Prototype of the Treasure: Midwifery Forceps (Io-Cult Treasure, Believer's Fertility +10, Believer's Pregnancy Complications βˆ’10%, Believer's Lifeforce +1, Monthly Piety +1)"

"Forceps - Pre-requirements"

"1. The Doctrine of Sacred Childbirth (Satisfied)"

"2. Within a month, let 100 couples recognize the city from the bottom of their hearts"

"Note: Religious Artifact bonuses can be converted to similar items"

"Forging directly up one level?!"

Feng Daofu looked at the message carefully: "One doctrine corresponds to one treasure? It's a pity ......"

"Although the bonus is small, it can cover the entire sect, and with the addition of holy childbirth, the dystocia rate is directly reduced by 60%, which should be close to modern times, right?"

"With this entry, when the people are trained, I can also go hunting with confidence to meet the conditions of a natural hunter."

The strong positive feedback stimulated Vondolph to start hammering a midwifery forceps.

This time the forging vondolf felt the change.

Forging has been upgraded to Lv4, placed in medieval northern Europe, and it is also the best among professional blacksmiths.

Technical proficiency is secondary, and the most important thing is the specialty bonus.

After the steel-making efficiency was accumulated to 300%, there was a qualitative change, and when the second midwifery forceps were quenched, Feng Dolph acted as a human-shaped instrument, the temperature control was better, and the two-liquid quenching effect was even better than the first.

The news also gave affirmation.

"Forge +20"

"Forging Lv4 (1%)"

More experience given.

Feng Daofu recalled the process just now: "The heat treatment is better, my small hammer is better, and the shape is more accurate...... However, there is not much room for improvement, unless the material is improved. ”

"Do you want to try using metaphysical metallographic induction to refine steel billets?"

Vondolph was a little moved.

But look at your surroundings......

"Lack of materials, can't rush here."

"Continue the experience of liver blasting!"

Although the disadvantages of the rubbing process are very prominent, the advantages are also prominent.

The first wrought iron is shaped, and the recycled iron is carburized, which eliminates the most time-consuming step of forging and homogenizing, and the production efficiency is called high.

Feng Daofu supported four sets of hammers in a row before stopping, and the experience brush was called an enjoyable one, and the character experience was almost full.

He ran a lap outside, ran a five-kilometer run, and finally relied on his running experience to fill up the rest of the character's experience.

"Character Level Up! Gain 1 stat!"

This time, Vondolph did not hesitate to add some strength.

Speculation that a war of kings might break out in Norway has made him desperate to realize his immediate combat power.

In terms of agility, because he is born to die, he no longer needs reaction speed.

It's a big deal to hammer a heavy armor out, with armor on your body, it's not a big problem to react slowly when fighting.

Intelligence attributes increase experience efficiency, which is a big late stage, and it can't bring combat power.

Vondolph, who created the midwifery forceps, feels that he has enough brains now.

In the same way, his knowledge is already too much better than that of other gods, and his ability to preach will not change qualitatively.

Moreover, the pattern of holding the scripture in one hand and the sword in the other, continuing to stack strength from a certain angle can improve the missionary ability more than charm.

After a brief test, Feng Daofu was very satisfied, and continued to make simulated childbirth training equipment, set up a human Valkyrie-midwifery training class, and trained three hairies.

When they looked tired, Feng Dolph stopped the class and beckoned to take a bath and go to the kang.

Without the help of more than a dozen slave laborers, three hairs are tired enough to operate for a day.

Before Feng Daofu fell asleep, they slept with the thief incense, and when they fell asleep, they didn't care about the difference between master and servant.

Vera leaned into his arms, and the little mullet pressed against his back, followed by the long mullet's legs around her waist.

Vondolph: "...... Sleep a fart, get up! ”

P Club players are never Asassi!

......

Following.

As soon as the sky was about to clear, the three Norse reported with their children.

The Japanese meal was still cooking, and Feng Dolph took them outside to queue first.

Blue sky and white clouds, clear sky.

The forest not far away is already grazed by diligent farmers, the cattle are lying comfortably on the ground and wagging their tails, and the pigs are leisurely eating the acorns and beeches that have fallen under the trees.

"Good day, sir."

The first patrol was already on horseback, and they deliberately ran some extra distance, just to come over and say hello.

The other farmers greeted each other with similar reverence.

The three parents who were watching secretly observed this phenomenon, and were a little surprised by the respect that Feng Dolph received.

Also observing these children instinctively felt that Feng Dolph was a powerful person.

When Feng Dolph looked at him, both boys and girls raised their chests and heads.

Feng Dolph's gaze swept over one by one.

Some of them are about to lift their chests to the sky after their eyes meet, and some are calm and precocious.

Each of the 10 children is different.

"Yes, very energetic."

Feng Dolph began with a compliment, and after a while he got closer to them.

After a while, Vera and the others were ready to cook.

Feng Daofu personally took charge of the spoon, cooked them one by one, and attached a few words.

These co-optation techniques for watching history learning are just as useful for North children.

After initially winning the hearts of the people, Feng Daofu went to chat with the parents again, and in a few words, they were relieved to send their children here.

The blacksmith's house originally housed more than a dozen people, but now the seats are vacant and can easily accommodate 10 children.

Daily necessities are ready-made and do not need to be prepared.

After eating and drinking, Feng Dolph divided the 10 children into two squads according to their situation.

A team went to mow the grass and reinforce the fence.

A team came to help make samarium knives and other tools.

Although these children are not as good as adults, they have also greatly slowed down the manpower demand.

Feng Dolph had time to train hard during the day and preach to the children at night.

Adults can't resist the current version of the strongest Io Doctrine, and these 10 children fell on the first night.

With the bond of faith, Vondolph felt more at ease using them and developed all kinds of tools for them.

For example, samarium knives, wheelbarrows, mobile cranes, etc., greatly improved the efficiency of the first group.

Simple woodworking tools, simple wooden machine tools, etc., improved the efficiency of the second group as helpers.

Even to fetch water to wash clothes, Feng Dolph made a wooden water drawer.

The overall shape is like a camera frame, folding and carrying, hand-cranked operation, placed on the ice cave with three-point support, shaking the grip to put the bucket down, and then shake the bucket up, easy and no danger.

With tools, faith and plenty of food, the 10 children were so enthusiastic about their work that in a few days they were able to fill the gap in the green fodder for their livestock and maintain the fence.

Feng Daofu also made all the samarium knives, and because the little assistants worked too hard, they were idle and had nothing to do with the wiping process, which was affirmed by the panel.

"Premium Samarium Knife (DMG +1)"

The free upgrade of the reinforced samarium knife has been well received by the farmers.

When Vondolph brought Sari's one back to upgrade, the Norse people from other farming areas came to the door.

The Northians, who love to gossip when they have nothing to do, got a good farm tool, which of course was to show off, and also to pull orders for their captain.

Feng Dolph didn't refuse to come, and by the way, he tested if he could add a special effect to his forging hammer tool.

Although the attempt failed, the XP required for several zero-level skills was finally full.

"Tactical upgrades! Trading Upgrades! Management upgrades!"

"Gain Tactical Expertise - Dense Formation (+10% damage dealt by infantry to cavalry and -25% morale penalty for casualties when troops are in shield wall formations, phalanxes, wedge formations, and columns)"

"Gain Trading Expertise - Appraiser (-15% trade penalty for selling equipment, your profit is marked)"

"Gain Management Expertise - Sword as a Shield (-10% food consumption for troops, no morale penalty for single food)"

All three are not small.

The appraiser asked Vondolph to judge the price more accurately and squeeze out more profits.

The two skills of tactics and management also made Feng Dolph more comfortable with commanding these 10 children, and as an officer, he barely got in.

It may not be possible to go to war, but it is still no problem to organize child laborers to build houses.

How can we boast so high that we don't have a central place dedicated to religious homework, religious education, and missionary activities?

After Mukor turned his strategy to Quba, away from the Meccan nobles who persecuted him, he immediately gathered his followers and built a simple mosque for their common faith.

Although the shape is very simple, with only a fence outer wall, the beams and posts are made of date palm tree poles, and the night is lit by straw and dry grass, and the worship service can only be carried out under a pergola made of date palm trunks in the courtyard, it does not affect the enthusiasm of the believers in the slightest, and it also shows the importance of an exclusive place for mission.

Vondolph decided to follow his example and upgrade the chapel.

Considering the harsh climate of LuleΓ₯ Bay and the abundant clay resources in the vicinity, Feng Dolph planned to light up the brick-burning technology, referring to the woolly bear architectural style of the same cold zone, to complete a simple brick building.

In addition, there are double stables and retort cellars to be built.

This is not enough for a group of children, it requires more adult labor.

"But before the big project, you have to make a little preparation and upgrade the patrol equipment."

Not just to be cautious, but also to make money.

The money from the sale of samarium knives alone is not enough for these big projects.

What equipment to sell to Northfarmer, Vondolph has already designed it.

Linen armor + rattan shield.

In addition to being a magic stick, the biggest role of the generator is to unravel the electrochemistry.

Although most technologies require power, there are also a small number of technologies that can be electrolytically produced under current conditions.

For example, waterproof adhesives.

With adhesives in hand, it was natural to think of the relevant protective gear.

Linen armor is cloth armor glued together with linen, and rattan shield is a medallion glued together with rattan.

While being lighter, the protection performance is not bad.

Needless to say, the familiar rattan shield is not too much.

The linen armor that is standard with Greek soldiers, tested by the Mythbuster, has a higher defense than the same weight of iron armor when it is not painted or waterproofed.

Here you can refer to the mille-feuille sole.

Linen armor is simple and easy to make, cost-effective, and much simpler than chain mail.

Once the model is made, the layers of linen are dipped in and the prototype is quickly formed.

Linen nails obviously have so many advantages, but they are still eliminated, purely because the quality of the adhesive in the past is not up to standard, it is easy to disintegrate, and it needs to be maintained frequently.

By the time the Industrial Revolution had developed good adhesives, linen armor reappeared – in the form of primitive body armor.

Now there is the adhesive made by Feng Dolph in advance, and the flax armor and rattan shield have no fatal flaws, and the comprehensive cost performance is good to make people drool.

Not counting the cost of electrolytic adhesives, only counting the cost of raw materials and man-hours, the cost of a set of armor shields is less than 3 silver coins.

The protection is good and light and warm, especially suitable for the Norse, and this equipment can crush all the surrounding tribes when worn.

Looking at the flax armor that had been undamaged after the bow and arrow test, the Norse farmers felt the same way.

I want to buy it, but I'm afraid it's too expensive.

When they hesitated, Vondolph spoke, "This is the wisdom I received from Io. ”

"I price them at a third of the price of chain mail, which is 400 silver coins for a set."

"However, as long as you are a believer, you can now buy a set for half the price, which is the cost price of 200 silver coins."

The converted farmer was first overjoyed, then sad.

200 silver coins is still very expensive......

"It's not over yet."

Vondolph continued: "You are my brothers and sisters, you are my family, and I have prepared benefits for my family. ”

"50 silver coins! Just pay a down payment of 50 credits and you're done! ”

"And the remaining 150 silver coins have no interest, and they can be returned within three years!"

"I'm not interested in silver, I just want to make it safer for everyone to fight."

The Norse farmers' eyes widened, as if they saw the light of divinity light up behind Vondolph's head.

Sage!

This is the true Sage!

Believers do not hesitate to dig out their wallets.

Unbelievers are also anxious to ask how to join.

Knowing that he only needs to say it verbally, and learning that Io has a side of Odin, they all say that they have changed to Io.

After the lively and lively arms conference, with enough funds, the infrastructure can be launched.

In order not to make the town of North suspicious, he moved the blacksmith's inheritance before fulfilling his promise, and Vondolph hurriedly forged a dagger and got the leader's approval.

Feng Dolph, who had no scruples, began to buy, buy, buy.

Based on the need for confidentiality, it is best for workers to find their own believers.

The good workers are all in Northtown, and they were out of reach before, but now......

Vondolph almost spoiled Margaret, but finally perfected the holy birth ritual, brought the full set of guys and began to preach with people.

Sprinkle holy water (disinfectant alcohol) to clean the field.

Then the bell rings three times to praise the god of all gods.

At the same time, Vera three shake the generator, and the god of thunder and the god of light bless.

After a set of processes, the mother was shocked and didn't cry out in pain.

"Do you want to believe in Io?"

"After believing it, Io will bless the believer, and the effect of the ritual will be maximized."

So the believer rejoiced +1.

After rubbing the Saint Childbirth BUFF, Feng Daofu invited out the Aio Relic and took out the baby smoothly.

"Wow~"

With the cry of a baby, the Iocult began its first steps in the expansion of Northtown.

It was also at this time that the Norwegian foreigners, who had been staying in the town of North, set their sights on a certain route with frequent transportation.

"At least enough grain for 50 people to eat for the whole winter was delivered!"

"This is an opportunity! As long as you grab such a ticket, the clansmen who are still in the wild will not have to worry about the winter! ”

"How's the target's strength?"

"It's just a foreign aristocratic little ghost, who is lucky enough to inherit the property of a blacksmith, what strength can he have."

"I can't cause the encirclement and suppression of the Norse tribe, act tonight, and take the tribesmen to the south after grabbing things, I've had enough of the cold here."

......

Night.

More than a dozen figures molded towards the wall.

When the distance was still more than ten meters, a figure suddenly felt that something had touched his feet.

Before he could react, a sharp and piercing sound pierced the night sky!
