Goldfinger of the Heavens

Chapter 465 Forging Tang Knife (Order)
Blacksmith.

"Clang...clang..."

Huang Chong held iron tongs in his left hand, holding a red sword embryo, and placed it on the big iron pier. He held a black hammer in his right hand, and kept beating the sword embryo. Embryo.

The sword embryo was not far away from being formed, Huang Chong was sweating profusely, but he still did not change his concentration.

There are only two sources of swords in the world.

One is to cast swords. The material is melted, poured into a mold, and then condensed into a sword embryo, which is then polished to have a sharp edge.

The second is forging swords, using a furnace to make the material easy to forge, and then using a forging hammer to beat out the sword embryo bit by bit, and then polish the sword edge.

Huang Chong's sword was forged using forging methods. Up to now, the sword embryo has been formed, but it still only has the word "rough" in the eyes.

Or, instead of calling it a "sword", it should be called a "knife".

No, if it was in the Tang Dynasty, it was a sword and a knife.

Yes, what Huang Chong wants to create is the famous Tang Dao.

Tang Dao, the blade is straight, if it is received in the sheath, it is no different from a sword, so there is a Tang Dynasty, there are swords but no swords, and what was called "sword" at that time was actually Tang Dao.

As we all know, the four periods of the strongest military power in ancient China were clearly the Tyrant Qin, the Strong Han, the Prosperous Tang and the Mongol Yuan.

But everyone’s favorite, I’m afraid there are more Han and Tang dynasties. Until the 21st century, the pride of the Han and Tang dynasties has been circulating in everyone’s hearts, endlessly, and even gradually deified, because these two dynasties are so exciting. Whether it is martial arts or martial arts, they are all number one in the world.

Let's not mention it for the time being, but in terms of martial arts, the most important thing is military strength. It may be an exaggeration to say that it has swept the world. After all, it has not been tried, and it is difficult to draw conclusions, but it is the easiest to sweep Southeast Asia, and it has already been completed. fact.

In ancient times, it was a war with cold weapons. If you want to make great achievements in battle, in addition to the bravery and strategy of the commander, the quality of equipment cannot be ignored.

There are four kinds of knives in the Tang Dynasty, one is Yi Dao, the second is Barrier Dao, the third is Heng Dao, and the fourth is Mo Dao. No matter what shape it is, the quality is very good, both technically and artistically. Gao's achievement can be said to be the pinnacle in the history of Chinese swords.

Even in the world of martial arts, it is still a fact that there are special internal force metals. Weapons forged by the method of forging Tang Dao are still the best among similar weapons. Tang Dao represents an insurmountable peak.

The Tang knife originated from the ring head knife in the Han Dynasty, but the casting process has been greatly improved. The use of Baotou steel technology makes the Tang knife hard on the outside and soft on the inside, with strong toughness, making the Tang knife more qualitative than the Han knife. The leap can split any armor equipment.

Since the Tang Dynasty, the casting technology of Tang Dao was introduced to Dongying. It is said that because Dongying’s craftsmanship is not good enough, straight Tang Dao cannot be cast, so the modern Dongying Samurai Sword with crescent moon curvature has been formed, but the custom of using swords as swords The habit has been preserved, so Huang Chong's "Willow Sword Art" can also be called "Willow Sword Art".

Sadly, the casting process of Tang Dao has blossomed everywhere in Dongying. After thousands of years of development, it has become one of the three famous swords in the world. The craftsmanship is gradually lost, and in the end it only remains on paper.

The blacksmiths of later generations re-forged Tang Dao according to the ancient method, but they could only get the shape, which was not as powerful and domineering as it was in the heyday of Tang Dynasty, and lacked charm.

However, for Huang Chong, these are not problems.

Detective Di Renjie's plane, Huang Chong's background as a chivalrous man, has a natural preference for weapons. After becoming emperor, he even studied the method of forging Tang Dao for a period of time, and even tried to forge a Tang Dao by himself, but was rejected by the crowd. The minister dissuaded him.

Later, Huang Chong also obtained a very complete forging process of the Song Dynasty, which should be inherited from the memory of the Xiaoyao School. In the world's first plane, Huang Chong lived in Dongying for a long time, and obtained various samurai sword forging methods of different schools in Dongying. In need of the war, Huang Chong spent a lot of money to attract skilled craftsmen from all over the world. It took him five years to study forging techniques, and Huang Chong really got a complete and efficient set of forging techniques.

In order to commemorate the prosperous Tang Dynasty and his first plane, Huang Chong did not change his name, and still called the sword forged with this forging method "Tang Dao".

The style of the new Tang Dao is almost exactly the same as the traditional Tang Dao. Of course, it is also divided into different levels. It is not easy to create a peerless magic weapon.

As a warrior, no one would refuse a peerless weapon, but now, resources, environment, time and other conditions are not allowed, Huang Chong can only settle for the second best, and only want to forge a convenient weapon.

The swords of the three brothers and sisters Ye Guhong, Ye Xue, and Ye Ling, the sword of Du Tiexin, the knife-wielding man Du Tiexin, the mourning stick and the soul-hunting hook of the seductress were all taken away by Huang Chong. The real purpose was to forge weapons for himself. After 20 days of hard work, it finally became the sword embryo in front of me.

It is also fortunate that Huang Chong has a complete set of advanced technology, otherwise it would be impossible to forge this sword embryo that is about to be formed in just 20 days.

zizi...

After some beating, the fiery red sword embryos gradually cooled down. Huang Chong used iron tongs to put all the sword embryos into the bright red liquid on the side. The hot iron made the liquid emit a burst of green smoke, and at the same time there was a strong smell of blood.

These red liquids are mainly blood, the blood of tigers, wolves, and cows, plus some Chinese herbal medicines, which belong to the secret quenching liquid.

Ordinary swordsmiths usually use water or animal urine, fat, etc. to quench their fire. They don't know how to use blood at all. It's not like no one has tried it, but the effect of quenching is not as good as that of water, so they were eliminated.

If it wasn't for the secret method of quenching with blood in the forging process of the Song Dynasty in memory, Huang Chong would not have chosen this method. After quenching with this secret quenching liquid, the weapon is not only hard, but also tough. It took Huang Chong After a long time, when the quenching liquid no longer has the smell of blood, then the sword embryo is considered complete.

After quenching, Huang Chong put the sword embryo back into the furnace for calcination.

In order to provide temperature, the fuel used in the stove is coal mined by Huang Chong himself, which can provide a higher temperature for the stove. There is a bellows on the side of the stove. The stream water provided power for the bellows, and the wind entered the furnace, and the flames in the furnace shot straight up, burning the sword blank.

Huang Chong turned his head to look at the corner of the blacksmith shop, and met a pair of vicious eyes.
