Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

.

Ten days later, the blacksmith camp.

Liu Yu looked relaxed, bare-chested, with a long wooden handle, holding a large crucible with a square foot. On one side of the blast furnace, Feng Qian and Mao Qiu were pulling the bellows hard, while the furnace The color of the fire has started to turn blue. In a large cauldron added above, the iron juice has begun to boil. The sky's heat is rising upwards. Everyone within three feet of this blast furnace is roasted. Like washing in water.

With a thump, the last ray of flame in the furnace also changed from red to blue, and Mao Qiu's face changed, and he shouted, "Get up!"

Liu Yu was anxious and quick, and once the long handle turned, the crucible suddenly reached into the iron pan, and when it was turned over and scooped, a pot of molten steel poured into the crucible.

In the open space outside, a dozen or so sand boxes have been lined up together, and the holes that are dedicated to the molten steel are upward. The other places are tightly closed, and Liu Yujian walks like a fly, carrying this large crucible molten steel, In just a moment, he rushed out of the blacksmith's shop, and there was no splash of steel liquid. In the exclamation of everyone around, the steel liquid of this large crucible was poured into these dozens of sand boxes in a steady manner. It wasn't until the hole began to overflow with molten steel that I stopped to pour the next box. In this way, in a few minutes, a large pot of molten steel was filled with these turning boxes.

The artisans beside the box cheered for a while, wearing leather jackets soaked in water, and took the sand boxes aside, shaking them repeatedly to make the molten steel pairs fully fill the sand holes. Liu Yu put down the work in his hand, wiped the sweat on his face, and looked down at some of the sand boxes that were being opened on the side. He took a sigh of relief: "This is really fast. With this stove, you can pour five out of a day. Ten boxes. One box can make twenty pieces of armor. Even if you return to the furnace to refinish five pieces, there are as many as fifteen pieces. That is to say, this furnace can make seven or eight hundred pieces a day. "

Kong Jing nodded with a smile: "Yeah, faster than we expected. Now two hundred furnaces are running at the same time, about one hundred fifty thousand pieces a day can be produced, enough for three hundred pairs of armor. At this speed, One million people can be equipped in a month. "

Liu Yu nodded: "It seems that there is no problem with the armor making, but the soldiers can't just wear the iron armor and don't have a weapon in their hands. Is there any good way for Brother Kong to build this weapon?"

Kong Jing hooked his mouth and said, "As I said last time, it is impossible to equip a lot of steel in a large amount of equipment. Even the tiger troops are mainly based on Changjia. What we want to build is just the head."

Liu Yu shook his head: "It's just a wooden pole with a head, this kind of step, I'm afraid that it is difficult to take advantage of fighting against a strong enemy. The horse chap I told you the other day, do you think there is a way to do it? come out"

Kong Jing sighed: "I have been thinking about this problem for the past two days. Ma Chan's production is very troublesome, but the material is not impossible to get, but the kind of non-stop oil immersion, then dry again, then oil immersion, then dry again, repeatedly After several years of tossing, similar to that of the Nanman vine, it was too laborious and time-consuming to make. "

"Now the task we have received is to complete the equipment of 10,000 elite soldiers within three months, and at least to ensure the 5,000 tiger troops. So the time is still very tight, and there is no time to do that kind of horse."

Liu Yu still did not give up and said: "Will the boom be better if it is made of steel"

Kong Jing smiled and said: "Even the iron rods are made of steel, then all the iron ore I have here is probably not enough for the weapons of 3,000 people. Brother Liu, you still have to consider a cost problem, our iron here There is already a lot of ore, but it is not luxurious enough to even use steel for the pole. "

Speaking of which, Kong Jing ticked his mouth: "Actually, Qin Jun can't be all cavalry, and their cavalry is also a minority. You don't need to build equipment according to the method of dealing with cavalry. Think about how to deal with the large number of infantry of the other party. Is the king. "

Liu Yu sighed: "If you deal with infantry, it's easier to handle. But there are many Qin soldiers. If we hold positions with them, we will rotate regularly, and I'm afraid that we can't attack quickly. I have been thinking these days. If there is no need, there is no way to quickly break through the enemy ’s infantry defense. "

Kong Jing's face changed: "You mean, spread out a quick attack"

Liu Yu nodded: "Yes, our army's strength is far inferior to that of the enemy. If it is a tiger force as the first force, but thousands of people rely on these thousands to rampage among hundreds of thousands of enemy forces, it is impossible to rely on The usual array, husband battle, and courage, the reason why Qin Jun is fierce depends not on how much better the equipment is than others, but their fighting will is far stronger than the army of other countries! The law can directly let the enemy take the air. "

Kong Jing smiled and said: "This is true, Qin's light soldiers are dead, they don't even wear armor, they are holding a sharp blade, and they are invincible on the battlefield. Do you want the Tigers to become like this?"

Liu Yu smiled and said: "I'm still just a criminal who has committed an atonement. How can we talk about formulating the tactics of the army, but I think that as a general of this army, we should play the characteristics of our Wu people's light and sturdy ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Heavy armor is just a cover tool for us to approach the enemy, to protect against arrows and guards, but the real fighting, the infantry on both sides hold each other, I hope to break the enemy with the fastest speed! "

Kong Jing nodded: "If it is a quick assault, the best way is to use a knife. Although assassination on the battlefield is more efficient than slashing, it is to fight against the array. If it is scattered, one-on-one. In face-to-face fighting, the long weapon can't be displayed, and the big sword of four or five feet is the best. "

He said this, and smiled: "Like your thick-backed mountain knife, it is the best guy. It is of moderate length and heavy enough. It swept up in the crowd and should be the most suitable for light soldiers. Rui Shi. "

Speaking of which, Kong Jing suddenly frowned: "However, even your knife is not very suitable for the Tiger Force."

Liu Yu's face changed: "Why doesn't it fit?"

Kong Jing sighed: "Because your knife is too hard and too sharp."

Liu Yu surprised: "Shouldn't the sword be hard and sharp?"

Kong Jing shook his head: "The enemy army is also armored, not chopping melons and vegetables. On the battlefield, no matter how hard it is, after cutting ten or eight people, it will also gap and become dull. This is one of them. The second thing is that your knife is too hard, and you will be shocked when chopping people. If you hack more than 30 people, it will probably break. Not to mention that the swordsmen and soldiers intersect on the battlefield, and they often have to deal with the enemy. The weapons are separated from each other, and it will be more likely to break. So if the spear is blunt, it can be replaced now, but how can you change the entire knife? "

Speaking of which, Kong Jing's eyes flashed coldly: "Only the blade is sharp, and the back is flexible, and the powerful knife that can be removed from this hacking is the really needed knife. Liu Yu, I am not The solution, maybe you can ask the fat man again and ask, what's the trick? "
