Chapter 31 Sabre
The next afternoon, Ren Ning sat in front of the barracks and repaired Zhuifeng's hoof.

Horseshoes are equivalent to human nails. If they grow too long, they will deform easily and affect their movements. They need to be repaired to be useful.

He didn't care about what happened last night.

Since someone wants to send poison in, it means that there are still undiscovered traitors in the fortress.

And this person can wander around, at least he can enter the scout camp where Ren Ning is, otherwise there is no way to get the poison without anyone noticing.

When Gao Deming received the news, his face turned dark again.But it was not his turn to interrogate these trivial matters.

Ren Ning came back to his senses with a hey smile, and continued with his work.

When others repair a horse's hoof, they usually have to tie the horse's limbs and head to a wooden stake to avoid being kicked by it when repairing the hoof.

However, Ren Ning didn't use it.

He carelessly moved a low chair to sit beside Zhuifeng, moved the horse's hoof to his lap and put it in place, and then slowly repaired it with a knife.

Zhuifeng didn't resist, let alone kick him.

The black horse just whimpered a few times, turned around to watch Ren Ning's movements curiously, and remained motionless.

Since pulling out the thin needle last time, Zhuifeng has been very kind to him, and he can even obey him.

From this point of view, Ren Ning should be able to ride it on the battlefield in a few days.

After repairing the four hooves, Ren Ning stood up and patted the horse's back, letting the black horse walk around the camp by itself.

At this time, the sound of steady footsteps sounded.

Tie Tiangong walked over with his two apprentices.

The three of them carried a pile of bright and heavy things in their hands, and they were sweating from the walk.

Ren Ning's eyes lit up.

Nearly a month later, the weapons and tools he designed before finally became real.

"Master Tie, have you built everything I want?"

"Okay." Tie Tiangong replied angrily.

Ren Ning's design seems to be some ordinary weapons and tools, and there is nothing too out of the ordinary. However, Tie Tiangong knew it was not easy when it was built.

But fortunately, he did not disgrace his fate, he hurried on and endured for several days, and finally made them.

Of course, Tie Tiangong didn't need Tie Tiangong to do such a trivial matter, he was pulling Ren Ning's clothes.

"Boy Ren, didn't you say last time that there is a way to make the iron unripe? Tell me what's going on?"

Ren Ning did not answer.

At this time, his attention was all on the top saber.As for what Tie Tiangong said, he didn't hear it at all.

Picking up the saber, Ren Ning tried the feel.

Thorn, hack, pick, cut...

Holding the familiar weapon in his hand, the heavy feeling made him feel kind and comfortable in his heart.

Then Ren Ning looked for something to test the hardness, sharpness and toughness of the weapon, and he nodded in satisfaction after a long while.

The saber in front of him was worse than the one he used in his previous life.However, in terms of the metal performance of this era, it is definitely a top-notch weapon.

Haha.

"It's really a good knife. Thank you, Master Tie. Finally, I have a close-quarters weapon that I can handle."

Ren Ning felt it for a while, then took out the Xiliang machete that had accompanied him through life and death, and handed it to Tie Tiangong's apprentice.

"This Xiliang scimitar is useless, let's melt it."

cough.

Tie Tiangong's face turned black, "Aside from this knife and that bow, what are the other odd-shaped shelves used for?"

Ren Ning was testing the bow and arrow, and replied casually: "Oh. Those are not weapons, they are used to train physical fitness and flexibility."

"I'll assemble them in a while, and you'll understand how to use them."

Hearing that it was for training, Tie Tiangong suddenly lost interest.

He is a blacksmith, physical training is enough to hit the iron a few times, and there is no need to do special training at all.

He was about to ask about the stainless steel again, but after shooting a few arrows, Ren Ning seemed to remember something, and dragged him straight into his barracks for no reason.

Ren Ning put down the new weapon, picked up the blueprint of the telescope that had been drawn on the desk and handed it over.

"Master Tie, look at this telescope, can you make it?"

Tie Tiangong was taken aback, "Telescope, what is it?"

Since Ren Ning drew him a schematic diagram of a bellows last time.Once the real thing is produced, the efficiency of the entire construction camp has increased many times.

Whether it is the armor of the soldiers or the horseshoes and stirrups of the mounts, etc., it is fast and good to build.As a result, the iron ore and coal reserves in the fortress became scarce for a while.

At this time Tie Tiangong was very interested in Ren Ning's head.

Hearing that it was a new craft, he didn't bother to ask about stainless steel, so he quickly opened the blueprint to check it carefully.

The drawing is very clear, but Tie Tiangong is at a loss.

"Boy Ren, what is the use of this thing?"

Ren Ning chuckled.

"It's called a telescope. As the name suggests, it allows people to see farther. If we can only see a mile away at ordinary times, with it, we can see four, five, or even ten miles without any problem."

While talking, Ren Ning was a little distracted.

In fact, he wants to know if he has a telescope, can his golden finger follow the telescope to show the safety situation in the distance.

If he could, then he would definitely make a lot of money for the crystals he bought back from the merchants at a high price.

If not, at least some precious military achievements can be exchanged, which is not a loss.

"So sharp?" Tie Tiangong lifted his spirits.

He has been building ordnance in the fortress for more than [-] years. He immediately understood the great role of the telescope on the battlefield, and asked about the production process in detail.

Ren Ning knew everything and answered everything.

In fact, as long as there is a lens, there is basically no difficulty in making a telescope.After Ren Ning explained it in detail, although Tie Tiangong didn't understand the specific principles, he already understood everything.

"The difficulty is grinding the two crystals, right?" He looked at the two weird lenses in the blueprint above, and pondered for a while, "I should be [-]% sure that I can do it well."

Ren Ning breathed a sigh of relief, "That would be the best."

After taking the two crystals from Ren Ning, the two chatted a few more words, and Tie Tiangong couldn't wait to go out.

"Master Tie, keep it secret." Ren Ning reminded from behind.

The production of telescopes is really simple, if spies from neighboring countries also learn it, it will be meaningless.

Although pure crystals are very rare, it is not a problem for any country to get a few.

Pooh.

Tie Tiangong spat, and almost wanted to give Ren Ning a middle finger.

You also need to remind me?
If he didn't want to take out some magical things from this kid's brain in the future, he would be unbearable.

Ren Ning watched him leave with a chuckle, and went out to assemble the pile of training equipment.

The number of scouts has never been large, and it seems that another batch has been sent out recently.The entire camp was silent at this time.

Ren Ning wanted to ask for help, but he couldn't see anyone when he looked left and right.

He didn't struggle with it, and slowly assembled it by himself.

When working hard, time usually passes quickly.

clang clang clang.

The huge bell on the top of the city rang again.

Ren Ning looked up to the west.

The bright sunset is already on the top of the city, and it's time to eat again.

He knocked his mouth.

Even though the incident happened outside the west city gate last night, it was nothing compared to the triumphant return of the soldiers.

A majestic military fortress with 10,000+ troops stationed, will not become timid just because of the discovery of a small craftsman.

Therefore, those who should reward the armed forces still have to continue to reward.

It's just that soldiers from different battalions can't get together to brag, fart, eat and drink like before.

Soon the food for the scout battalion was delivered.

There are no big fish, but there is big meat.

There are several tables filled with all kinds of meat and soup, which is very rich.

However, listening to the bubbling jubilation in the surrounding camps, and looking at the calm and quiet scout camp in front of him with only a few kittens, the corners of Ren Ning's mouth twitched.

Their scout camp seems to be turning into a dead camp.

Just as he was thinking wildly, Gao Deming walked back with a sullen face.

"Commander." Everyone stood up.

Gao Deming nodded, looked at his few subordinates, and signaled them to sit down.

"Don't wait, eat. We only have so many people left."

The scouts looked at each other in shock.They haven't started eating yet, and they feel that their stomachs are already full.
