Chapter Twenty-Three: The Master of the Soldiers
The Warlord is the leader in charge of the manufacture of weapons, and his status is lower than that of the chieftain in charge of the army.
For many years, the Changyu clan has been secretly sending outstanding talents to the Xurui Dynasty to learn various advanced arts.
The grandfather of the soldier master Da Ran was strong in force, and he went to the Xurui Dynasty under a pseudonym to take the military attache examination and was awarded the title of five-rank military attachΓ©. A few years later, he was promoted to a second-rank military attachΓ©, transferred to the Central Plains, and became a subordinate of the Taiping King. Later, he was transferred to the barracks by the King of Taiping, and served as a commander for 18 years, mastering the method of making weapons, and resigned in his fifties and returned to Jiuhuangling.
At that time, Da Ran's father was seriously ill, and his grandfather began to teach his teenage grandson Da Ran, Da Ran was able to learn as soon as he could, and he could draw inferences from one another, Da Ran's physical and intellectual conditions were unmatched, and soon Da Ran's father was in good health and began to learn art skills, but he couldn't learn Da Ran no matter how hard he worked.
A few years later, Da Ran became the first young man in the Changyu clan's armed forces, and he made several weapons that completely surpassed the previous military master, and Da Ran became the youngest military master in the history of the Changyu clan.
In the years after becoming the master of the war, the Changyu clan fell down all the famous adult samurai one by one and became the first samurai.
Da Ran lived in the middle of the Nine Desolation Mountains, but he often went to the south of the Chieftain's residence, the South Ridge, and that day coincided with the battle with Shi Dewa.
Da Ran and Shi Dewa have since become close friends, and the people of Yong'an Island, who are outside the formation of the army, stay with the chief, and Shi Dewa takes Diedewa and the soldiers to live next to Daran.
When Shi Dewa left the island at the age of fifteen to go to the Imperial Martial Academy, he had already learned the technology of making weapons in a comprehensive way, and after learning about Daran's technology, he felt that Daran's technology was much more advanced than that of his father Cangdewa.
Da Ran brought Shi Dewa to the weapons manufacturing base to visit, on a turbulent river erected a row of tall wooden wheels, the wooden wheels rotated under the impact of water, through the wheel axle, pull rod, rope transmission mechanism, pull a row of skin bags, produced a huge wind force high intensity wind pressure, the wind in the blast furnace produced a great penetrating force.
Shi Dewa looked at Da Ran and sighed: "What a magical wooden raft! Our island is pulled by people to pull horses to pull the blower skin, and we can't bring such a tall furnace as yours at all, our smelting technology is too backward!"
Shi Dewa's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "Brother Daran, bring me the sharpest knife for me to see." β
Daran and Shi Dewa walked through the tall and spacious weapons row, and the sound of people coming and going in the house was constantly ringing with the sound of clanging and pounding red-hot weapons.
Daran led Stonedeva to the innermost room, and took out a narrower scimitar from the mezzanine of the stone wall.
Shi Dewa untied the Cang Yu Divine Knife that Cang Dewa gave him when he left the island, and said to Da Ran: "My Cang Yu Divine Knife is extremely sharp, Brother Da Ran, let's compare the knife!"
"Okay, what is your name Cangqi Divine Sword, I'm interested in learning it. Da Ran said with a smile.
The two martial arts heroes pulled out of the stance, and then each swung their swords forward, and the two knives collided three times in an instant.
Shi Dewa stabilized his body and lowered his head to carefully inspect the knife in his hand, and the Cangqi Divine Knife was intact.
Shi Dewa breathed a sigh of relief, and just wanted to go to see Da Ran, but at this time, Da Ran was already standing in front of him, looking intently at the Cang Yu Divine Sword.
After a while, Da Ran silently raised his head, let Shi Dewa see the scimitar in his hand that was cut out of three small gaps by the Cang Yu Divine Knife, and asked Shi Dewa in confusion: "My knife is forged with the most advanced technical equipment of the Xurui Dynasty and the best steel that my grandfather got from the Xurui Dynasty, as well as the original three-quenching method of my Changyu clan for thousands of years, who made this knife of yours?"
"It was built by my father, Cangdewa. β
"Do you know what alloy steel this knife is made of?"
"It's a metal that we extract from non-ferrous ore on a small island. β
"Can you still get this ore?"
"Not a single ore is gone on the island. β
"Ahββ, unfortunate! β
"I still have this metal that my father Kundwa has refined. β
"Ahββ,hββ,h
"This metal on Yong'an Island is hidden in the soldiers. Brother Daran, do you want it?"
"This kind of rare treasure, Shi Dewa has been exposed like this!"
"I'm not going to tell anyone but you. β
"Shidewa! I didn't misread you!"
After Daran took Shi Dewa to visit the weapons manufacturing base he managed, he was given new metal on Yong'an Island.
Da Ran selected the steel made by the steel filling method, and then added new metal according to the proportion, and a small amount of silicon and niobium made a high-hardness blade alloy steel, and then integrated the new metal into wrought iron to make a knife with good toughness, cast into a steel knife, and finally quenched, the red-hot knife was quenched in cold water, warm water, and butter in three quenching liquids, and the fast cooling speed can ensure the hardness required by the knife sharpness, and the slow cooling speed can ensure the toughness of the knife, and the knife is not easy to deform and crack.
In the whole process of casting knives, Da Ran let Shi Dewa participate, and also taught Shi Dewa extremely precious techniques such as the proportion of alloys, the time of quenching and quenching.
The scimitar made of new metal with a slight dark green light was held high by Da Ran, and Shi Dewa held the Cangqi Divine Knife with a slight dark blue light, and the two looked at each other, as if facing a great enemy.
The two of them, who had stood quietly for a while, suddenly jumped up and down, jumped up and down, jumped and fell, and fell again, as fast as galloping horses, and the dark green scimitar and the dark blue broad knife inadvertently struck three times.
The Cang Qi Divine Sword had three new gaps, and Da Ran's heart trembled slightly.
"This knife is the Xurui Dynasty, no, it is the first knife in the world. Daran said.
Shi Dewa said: "Brother Daran, my family has been fighting knives for hundreds of years, and my father Cang Dewa shed tears for a few days after the birth of the Cang Yu Divine Knife, and I dare not imagine the scene when he saw this knife. Brother Daran: Give the knife a name. β
Da Ran pondered for a moment and said: "This knife is made by two families of different names and the same race, so let's call it Yutian Knife!"
Shi Dewa thought for a moment and said, "What a bold name!"
Da Ran looked at the knife in his hand lovingly, and then handed the knife to Shi Dewa: "Shi Dewa! β
Shi Dewa took a step back and said, "How can this work? This knife is completely made by Brother Daran's miraculous work, and no one deserves to use it except you." β
Da Ran said: "The knife was made by me, but without your new metal, there would be no heavenly knife, Shi Dewa! No matter how precious the Yutian knife is, it can't compare to your sincerity, brother!"
"But I don't like knives!" said Shidwa.
Da Ran said, "What weapon do you use?"
"I like to use guns!"
Da Ran said, "How much new metal do you have, I'm going to forge a Yutian Spear for you!"
A month later, on a mountainous area in the middle of the Nine Desolate Mountains, Da Ran held the Yutian Knife tightly, and Shi Dewa's hand Toda Ran had just forged the Yutian Spear for him.
The Heavenly Sword and Heavenly Spear, which glowed with a dark green glow in the sunlight, clanged and collided no less than twenty times, and both the Heavenly Sword and the Heavenly Spear were unscathed.
The soldier lord Da Ran looked at Shi Dewa with a solemn face and said: "This heavenly sword and heavenly spear are really divine weapons in the world, with it, Shi Dewa! One day, we will fight side by side, and we will definitely kill those evil people who bullied the weak in the Xurui Dynasty." β
Shi Dewa said firmly: "In order to avoid Zhou Zhizhi and their closure of the island, we came to the Nine Desolate Mountains, a few people died on the way, this account will be written down first; Feng Dewa was poisoned and taken away for treatment, if he has an accident, and his father Cangdewa, the big rumor master and the party, if something happens to them, I will definitely kill them back, and the blood will be splashed on Yongan Island!"
Da Ran walked over and patted Shi Dewa on the shoulder and said: "Brother, now you Yong'an Island is not fighting alone, the Changyu clan of Jiuhuangling will always stand by your side, the combat effectiveness of the hundreds of thousands of troops led by the chief will not be inferior to any army, we also have a crossbow army, which is extremely lethal, and the Xurui Dynasty will have to pay the price of blood if it wants to slaughter us!"
Shi Dewa gratefully said, "Brother Daran! We can't afford to hurt all of you. β
Da Ran said unhappily: "Shi Dewa! Why did you mother-in-law and mother-in-law? Don't say such things when Da Ran is a brother! My grandfather learned the Meng family's marksmanship from the Taiping King back then, and I will teach you this marksmanship. β
The first person to make the gun in the Xurui Dynasty was the emperor Zhou Tian, a treasure gun was invincible in the world, and another top master of the gun was Meng Tai, the king of Taiping, who was rumored to be ranked second in the seven military commanders after Feng Yi, the king of Nanling, and galloped on the battlefield for 20 years without defeat.
Shi Dewa had learned some of the Zhou family's primary marksmanship from Zhou Chi in the Imperial Martial Academy, but Da Ran practiced the essence of the Taiping King Meng's marksmanship.
Shi Dewa was like a treasure, and earnestly followed Da Ran to learn marksmanship.
Two months later, Shi Dewa wielded the Yutian spear and used the marksmanship of the Meng family, the king of Taiping, who Da Ran had passed on to him.
Shi Dewa's arms were fused with internal and external forces to grasp the heavenly spear, stabbing, smashing, scratching, teasing, picking, piercing, the moves were skillful, the wind was everywhere, the roar shook the sky, and the power was terrifying.
Shi Dewa, who was standing with his gun closed, did not grow his anger, and his face did not change. He could feel that for half a year, especially in the past two months, Ri Ri and Da Ran (the first person in the Nine Desolate Mountains force, his strength is equivalent to Shi Dewa, but the ability to use internal force and force is half a grade higher than Shi Dewa, if the two of them are not the strength of the death match that day, Shi Dewa will definitely lose in the end. Learning to learn martial arts, so that their internal force and external force fusion, especially the ability to use actual combat, has been greatly enhanced, and the spacing of the original ribs is significantly smaller than that of ordinary people's ribs, showing the characteristics of plate-like integration.
When leaving the island, under the full attack of Zhou Chi, Shi Dewa could barely hold on to between twenty and forty moves, and now with the marksmanship of Yu Yutian Gun and Taiping Wang, and then facing Zhou Chi, Shi Dewa is confident that he can stick to more than 100 moves.
