Aztec Eternals

Chapter 623: The heart of the fox, the technological breakthrough of Shenqisuo

The morning sun rises from the sky, and the four fields float with shimmering light. The crisp sound of wooden blades clashing sounded outside the king's tent. The sound was clear and audible. This is the morning training, which lasted for a full three quarters of an hour, and it was not over until the sky was bright.

The captain of the guard, Eckart, looked calm and sweated a little. Shirot was shirtless and sweating profusely. Under the service of Naxiu, he rubbed his body with hot water and let out a long breath of comfort.

"Huh!...Haha! Daily training is the key to strong warriors, maintaining their will and physique!"

Shirot patted his muscular chest and said with a smile. Then, he stretched out his big hand and squeezed Naxiu's cheek affectionately.

"Ah? Your Highness... Your Highness..."

"Master! Naxiu, my little fox, are you feeling better?"

"Ah! Your Highness...Master...it's better..."

Naxiu's ears turned red, she lowered her head, and hesitated a few words nervously. Such a twisted and uneasy posture appeared on her who had always been atmospheric, and there was a temptation of contrasts.

"Huh? It's a little feverish, isn't it a fever?"

Shirot stretched out his hand, touched Naxiu's white neck, and touched the woman's red ears. Naxiu immediately froze in place, like a puppet, at the mercy of the master. The master thought for a while, then hugged the maid's head again, and put it on his forehead, which turned out to be even hotter.

"Huh? It's so hot! ... Forget it, life in the military camp is always hard. Naxiu, you should stop serving me. Go to the tree snake city and have a good rest for a few days."

"Ah! Master, I'm fine... I'm just..."

Naxiu's red lips parted lightly, and she hesitated to speak nervously. In her heart, there was a warm flame, ignited by His Highness himself. She could feel His Highness's true feelings, far beyond the attitude of the great nobles towards slaves, and also completely different from the indifference of the priests and elders.

In His Highness's eyes, she seems not to be a shadow slave without herself, not a plaything to please her master, but a truly complete woman. These beautiful feelings are the first times she has felt since she was born. And all of this, in the past few years, has brought her courage little by little, and brought her a budding self. She slowly, struggling in her identity as a shadow slave, developed a desire, an instinctive desire as a woman.

It's just that these feelings and desires are like seeds, the dogma instilled by training in the temple since childhood, and they are firmly bound in the strict soil. However, last summer, when the divine body of the high priest suddenly appeared in front of her, in unbelievable shock and confusion, after grief for His Highness's sorrow... She finally broke free from the shackles in her heart, yearning as if It sprouts and grows like a seed and can no longer be suppressed.

Because, like a mountain, the high priest who controlled the Holy City lineage has left. And her fate will no longer be determined by the ruthless mountains, but in the hands of the sea-like, deep and warm His Royal Highness... No, Master.

"Your Highness...I just..."

"You just have a little cold. You need rest!"

Shirot shook his head and gently stroked Naxiu's smooth cheeks. Looking at the little fox who was stubbornly opening his mouth, he directly stretched out a finger and pressed the other's mouth. Then, his expression became serious, and he ordered.

"Naxiu, I order you to go to the tree snake city and have a good rest. Remember, drink two cups of healing herbal tea every day, and cultivate with peace of mind! ... As for the guards in the tent, I will leave it to Ekat for the time being. Wait for you. Alright, come back and take over."

Naxiu's eyes widened, staring at Shirot's serious face. For some reason, a layer of mist gradually formed in her eyes, and her legs were a little weak. After a while, she suddenly stuck out her tongue and caught Shirault's fingers, like a kitten, and lightly licked and bit twice.

"hiss!"

Feeling the moistness and softness of his fingertips, Shiloh suddenly felt agitated, and flames rose in his heart. He immediately withdrew his fingers, Yang said angrily.

"Naxiu!"

"Owner..."

Naxiu licked her lips and lowered her head. She showed her snow-white and red neck, and responded obediently, like a silver fox that fell into the hands of a hunter and was left to be disposed of.

"I... listen to you!"

After the gentle and brief interlude, Shilot sat in the big tent again and read the letters of the heads of the various departments in the Divine Revelation Institute.

The first is the report of Cushingi, the director of the military industry. In the warehouse of the capital city, in the past two months, a batch of lost bows and arrows, axe contradictory cards, and leather armor and bronze armor have been accumulated, which can be equipped with two thousand-person battalions.

"The battle with the Totonaks has broken out, it's time for another batch of gear..."

After thinking about it for a while, Xiulote ordered that this batch of armaments be transported to the front line of the Eastern Expedition as a reserve for the army. When the army goes out, the more intense the battle, the faster the damage of equipment will be consumed. Although the craftsmen accompanying the army can repair parts, the remaining gaps must be filled with new equipment. Among them, missing arrows and armor are the most urgent. Therefore, with the current military production capacity of the Mexica Alliance and the Kingdom of the Lake, there is only one Bronze Armored Corps that can be maintained.

Next, it is the document of the bow and crossbow director Kundiri, which is still about the new bamboo and wood composite bow. The bamboo and wood composite bow technology of the Bow and Crossbow Bureau finally made a breakthrough. A new batch, thousands of compound bows are being made, and it may be a year away.

The kingdom's new bamboo and wood bow is different from the traditional Chinese bamboo and wood bow, where the upper and lower arms fit together. It is based on a whole longbow as a bow tire, using bone glue on the back of the bow, and carefully pasting a bamboo board to further increase the shooting power and improve the efficiency. Then, three layers of bamboo pieces are stacked on the bow to form a recurve and increase the initial velocity of the arrow.

The advancement of bow and crossbow craftsmanship cannot be accomplished overnight. It takes years and months to build a compound bow alone, not to mention improving technique. The improvement of this compound bow is the simplest, but it has high requirements for strength, and is not a real warrior, so it is difficult to use in the battlefield.

"Compared with the bow-making technology that has been accumulated for thousands of years in Eurasia, it is still a new gunpowder weapon, which is more suitable for the pursuit of the American ministries!"

In the heart of Shilot, there was gradually some enlightenment. He lowered his head and quickly skipped the information from the other divisions.

The Industrial and Mining Division has replenished thousands of miners, the scale is further expanded, and the production capacity is increasing. In the mine, some iron tools are also used. It's just that compared with bronze tools, the new iron tools have not yet shown their advantages.

The Industrial and Manufacturing Division produced higher-quality purple pottery, and began to try adding bone meal for firing according to the divine revelation. The construction division expanded its scale and tried Shenqi medium and large non-fired brick kilns, and adopted simple brick making tools.

The Printing Bureau has used softer metals and is experimenting with flexible movable type, currently lead and tin are selected. Of course, this kind of exploration of movable type printing is only a reserve of technology under the inspiration of advanced technology. And now the main task of the printing bureau is to print the scriptures and pictures of the Lord God with wither plates day and night, and transport them to the counties in the north and the south, up to the village shrine.

After many years of silence, Lozano, the head of the Bureau of Special Trade Products, the leader of the masons, finally achieved new results. Unfortunately, even after nearly ten years of research, he has not been able to make transparent glass. However, he ordered a high-temperature-resistant iron pipe from the iron products produced by the Heiyanshan Iron Mine. Then, following His Highness's prompt many years ago, he put one end of the iron pipe into the molten glass and played glass blowing.

"Um?..."

Shirot raised his eyebrows, looked at the glass vial he brought with the letter, and pondered. The firing cost of the glazed vial is negligible, but the pattern of the sun hummingbird on it took a lot of work. And such gorgeous utensils, compared with practical pottery, the biggest advantage of UU reading www.uukanshu.com is...

"Yes, it can be sold very expensively! That's called... a gem in the lake!"

Sherlot nodded slightly, identifying another hugely profitable commodity monopolized by another kingdom. Then, he finally stretched out his hand and opened the letter from Tilipi, the master of casting, the head of the Bureau of Bronze and Casting Guns. But after reading for a while, the king's expression suddenly changed, revealing unbelievable ecstasy!

"Respected Your Majesty! According to the divine revelation you left, we spent more than a year trial-producing a bronze mortar specially designed for siege. It has a very special shape, short and squat, with a very large caliber. Wide, capable of firing heavy stone bullets weighing as much as 30 pounds!  …”

"This is an invincible artifact bestowed by the Lord God! We have tested it more than a dozen times, and it is so powerful that it can even break down stone walls! ... God bless your majesty! In the world, there will be no castles or fortresses anymore. Block your footsteps!"

"It's just... In the last test, we replaced with a new type of granular gunpowder, added a full fifteen kilograms, and fired 30 kilograms of stone bullets with a closed mouth... Then...the cannon exploded!  … ."
