Alien Lord

Qiu Tie's ability to make weapons is indeed very strong, but no matter how strong he is, only one of them can't play a big role in the army. There are too many weapons in the army, but Qiu Tie is a craftsman who refinishes at all. Not many good weapons come out.

Why is the fighting power of the White Elephant Corps in Tianchen City so strong? It is one of the best in the Chu Kingdom, and the excellent weapons are an essential factor.

In order to refine elaborate weapons, Tianchen City maintains a strong craftsman force all year round. This craftsman force has a much stronger ability to refine weapons than Qiu Tie.

For this, craftsmen like Qiu Tie are well aware.

"Tian Chong City." Lin Ze's tone carries a trace of yearning. The name of Tian Chong City, after Lin Ze came to Huangsha Town, kept listening to people talking about how magnificent the Tian Chong City is. The strength of the White Elephant Legion is so strong, etc. Lin Ze's ears have been cocooned after listening to these contents. Therefore, Lin Ze also wanted to see this famous city of heaven and earth.

"Qiu Tie, don't be discouraged. I believe that your strength in the future can definitely catch up with or even exceed those of the craftsmen in Tiancheng City!" Lin Ze encouraged Qiu Tie. He didn't encourage it indiscriminately. Have this idea.

Why are the craftsmen in Tianchen City so strong? In addition to the better quality of pig iron, it is because they have a large number of weapons for refining all year round.

The White Elephant Legion fights against the barbarian army every year. Therefore, their weapons are very expensive. This means that the craftsmen in the city of Tiancai have weapons refined throughout the year.

Even after a long period of time, even a novice in refining weapons has been trained as an elite craftsman.

Now Lin Ze is also constantly expanding its troops here. Correspondingly, the number of weapons needed has also increased sharply. At that time, Qiu Tie also had countless weapons to build every day.

In this way, the general craftsmen under Qiu Tie will soon become elite level artisans like Qiu Tie.

As for the difference in materials, Lin Ze laughed directly.

Lin Ze pondered for a while, then went on to say: "Qiu Tie, don't you know that you have heard of steel?"

Qiu Tie froze for a moment, then shook his head directly. Lin Ze couldn't help being disappointed.

However, Lin Ze soon thought that perhaps the name of the steel on the mainland of Shenzhou is different, so he quickly explained: "Qiu Tie, the steel I am talking about is the kind of hardness that is higher than iron, but the flexibility is There is also a better one. Weapons made of steel are much stronger than ordinary weapons.” Lin Ze kept describing the performance of steel to Qiu Tie.

"Oh, Master, are you talking about fine iron?" A team leader behind him said directly before Qiu Tie answered.

"Fine iron?! Yes, it is fine iron!" Lin Ze's eyes lit up. On the earth, in some places in feudal society, he also called steel fine iron.

"Do you know fine iron?" Lin Ze asked urgently.

At this time, Qiu Tie quickly introduced this person to Lin Ze.

"Sir, he is the leader of this iron-smelting group, Shen Lian, Shen Lian, come to the front and tell the adult what kind of refined iron is." Qiu Tie said to Shen Lian.

"Yes, Master!" Shen Lian replied, his face a little nervous.

The biggest tube that Shen Lian had seen before was the eighth grade official Qiu Tie. Now when he saw Lin Ze, a third grade official, he suddenly became nervous.

"Adults and villains used to know that some senior craftsmen in Qingzhou had a fine iron in their hands when they were in Qingzhou. These senior craftsmen used this fine iron to refine some high-grade weapons. As far as I know, this The characteristics of refined iron are similar to those of the steel you just mentioned." Shen Lian replied with a trace of tension.

Fortunately, Lin Ze has always been very gentle, so Shen Lian was able to make things clear without mistakes, and if it was replaced by an unsmiling official to ask, with a timid personality, hehe, yes May not answer such a smooth.

"Oh, do you know how they do it? That is, how to make refined iron, that is, steel?" Lin Ze asked interestedly.

Steel is a symbol of industry and a symbol of power.

The amount of steel production represents the strength of a country. The country with more steel production has stronger strength. Correspondingly, the country with less steel production has weaker military strength.

In the modern era, why China suffered such a heavy blow and was invaded by its own capital more than once by other countries, and its steel production was underground, is one of the reasons.

In ancient times, China was the most powerful country on earth. At that time, China's economy was more than half of the global economy. Why was China so powerful at this time, and its steel production was far more than the sum of other countries. An important reason.

Therefore, Lin Ze attaches great importance to steel.

When Lin Ze was preparing to establish a force of his own, he was already planning to build a steel-making furnace in his heart. However, because of the thieves and the fact that the status of a hundred households was too low, he established a steel-making furnace. It's just a plan in Lin Ze's heart.

At that time Lin Ze wanted to build a steel-making furnace, which was really inappropriate.

Now Lin Ze has wiped out all the sand thieves around Huangsha Town, and wiped out 16,000 blood robbers at a very small cost, deeply deterring other sand thieves.

In addition, now Lin Ze has become the chief soldier, so he has the strength to build a steel-making furnace.

This time Lin Ze will come to inspect the craftsman's camp, just to see if anyone knows how to make steel.

Nor does he need to know more about steelmaking methods, as long as he knows some steelmaking things, Lin Ze can build a steelmaking furnace.

Lin Ze had collected a lot of steel-making methods in order to enrich the knowledge of steel in the plane-seed world. Therefore, how to make steel and how to build a steel-making furnace was not difficult for Lin Ze. Now, what Lin Ze needs is only A man who knows some steelmaking.

Now Lin Ze seems to have found this specific manpower. The sinker in front is the best person in charge of steelmaking.

"Return to Master, when the villain was in Qingzhou, it was just an ordinary craftsman. Those senior craftsmen would not teach the villain when they were making refined iron, that is, steel. So, the villain knows how to make steel. It’s not very clear. I just know some preliminary things. If I want to smelt out the true refined iron, it seems that I have to add charcoal powder or something in the furnace. As for the specific proportion of the increase, what kind of If the temperature is added below, these things will not be clear to the villain." Shen Lian replied with a sense of anxiety, fearing that Lin Ze would not be satisfied with his answer.

After Lin Ze listened, he nodded in satisfaction. He knew that the steel was originally made like this, but this method of burning impurities with carbon powder could not produce extremely high-quality steel. Moreover, this ratio , And the specific temperature is indeed a very confidential matter.

Such ratios, temperature control, addition time, etc., these secrets are extremely confidential in the modern earth. I don’t know these things, even if you know what material this steel is made of You can't make it.

There are many examples on the modern earth.

Like Rice, his steel is the strongest in the world. Other countries are constantly thinking of ways to imitate the high-grade alloy steel produced by Rice. However, until now, there have been few successes.

With the technology on modern earth, it is easy to check the specific refining materials of the United States and the refined steel, but even if others know the refining materials of this joint steel, but they want to refining it The alloy material is very difficult and beyond imagination.

In many countries, more than ten years of research cannot be developed. Why?

The reason is very simple. They can't test out the specific order of adding alloys. They don't know the temperature control when adding alloys. They don't know how many times these alloys are added. What is the temperature of each addition and the number of additions? Wait, as long as one of these problems is not solved, then this alloy steel cannot be refined.

However, among these problems, each of them is extremely difficult. If you want to solve it, the difficulty is really great.

For example, temperature control.

Modern refining alloy steel ~www.ltnovel.com~ The temperature control is directly accurate to the thousandth or even ten thousandths. With such precise temperature control, it is really difficult to find out the temperature you want to find.

Therefore, the United States can safely sell their most powerful alloy steel to their allies, because the United States does not worry that its alloy steel will be copied by its allies.

Those senior craftsmen who can make refined iron in Qingzhou must have the same reason. As long as they do not reveal the amount of carbon added and the temperature, then they are not afraid of the secret of others learning to make refined iron.

"Shen Lian, why don't you try this method? Try to add carbon powder to make steel yourself?" Lin Ze said curiously.

The refining of alloy steel is indeed difficult, but it is not difficult to make iron into steel. As long as carbon powder is continuously added, it can be easily experimented.

"Sir, I want to test it, but Shen Lian's face is embarrassed: "Sir, such a test is very easy to fail. Once it fails, it will often make the better quality pig iron also become a waste product. In addition, the prices of those pig irons are not low, and our ability cannot afford such consumption."
