Doomsday simulator, I prove extraordinary with swordsmanship

In the wooden house on the top of the mountain, Zhao Cheng is explaining the structure of the crossbow briefly to a group of craftsmen. In this era, it is not easy to train archers, and it is even more difficult to make a good crossbow and arrow feathers. A good arrow, if you want to make it, At least a dozen processes are required, which takes a long time.

If there are fewer steps, the arrow feathers will not be accurate at all.

But what Zhao Cheng wanted was not accuracy.

There are not many people in his group who can shoot arrows. Even if they want to train them temporarily, it is too late. After all, next spring, he plans to take Wucheng by force.

He knows very well that the longer he spends in the mountains and forests, the less advantage he has. It seems that the longer the time, the more strength he can accumulate, but in fact, as far as soldiers stay away from the battlefield for a long time, the morale of the army will be weakened after a long time. used.

He used the army to garrison the fields, just temporarily planting a season of grain. After a few years of planting, the elite soldiers under him will really degenerate into farmers. At that time, although they will be a little more brave than ordinary farmers, but In terms of combat power, I am afraid that it is not even one-third of what it is today.

Therefore, in the dynasties of all ages, when they stationed troops at the border, even if there were no enemies to fight, the wise commander would let his men and horses take turns to attack, so as not to blunt the soldiers.

Moreover, even if he cultivates a team of archers, with the ability of his craftsmen, it is impossible to produce enough bows and arrows.

Therefore, his plan is to produce a large number of continuous crossbows with no accuracy at all. As long as there are enough numbers, no matter how high the accuracy is, it must give way to probability.

In fact, if it weren't for the limited conditions, he would directly want to open a furnace in the mountains and make muskets directly with local methods.

There are many ores in the mountains, and the ores for making gunpowder are not difficult to find, but the biggest problem is that even if he uses Taoism, unless he builds a super-large furnace, otherwise the furnace is small, and the temperature of the flame is still impossible to reach the standard. The steel produced cannot bear the explosive force of gunpowder at all, and will only explode the chamber.

Therefore, after Zhao Cheng took Wucheng, he had enough conditions to build a musketeer army.

At that time, the elite will hold their shields in formation, point the muzzles of muskets in all directions, and directly advance the front line without considering the issue of accuracy.

At present, although muskets cannot be manufactured yet, Zhao Cheng has already begun to manufacture purified gunpowder. He plans to manufacture a batch of explosive packs to blast open the walls of Wucheng.

In this world, although a long time ago, there were Taoist alchemists who created something similar to gunpowder and used it on the battlefield, but because the purity of gunpowder is not enough, the lethality is limited.

As for the purification of gunpowder, it is not that no Taoists have thought of this, but the process is too dangerous, and Taoists are not indestructible. If there is an accident, there will be no bones left when they are about to be blown up, so after knowing the danger, there is no one. How many Taoists have studied this aspect.

However, it is precisely because of the refinement of gunpowder that the Danlei lineage was created in the Taoist sect.

Originally, I wanted to use Taoism to attract thunder. If I were a human being, I could do it in a thunderstorm. If I was in a drought, I would have to be a god.

But Taoists who are good at alchemy, use the essence of various mountains, uphold the virtue of guarding the land, condense the thunder in the ground, and thunder in the palm of their hands.

It's just that if this thunder method is most seeking lethality, it will be extremely unstable. If you are not careful, it will blow up in your sleeve. If you are most seeking stability, it will have no lethality. If you want to kill, it is better to bless yourself with Taoism , Gain supernatural speed and power, one sword at a time.

Liannu, gunpowder, chemical fertilizer, Taoist officials, recruiting soldiers, taking villages...

Zhao Cheng has a myriad of things to do now, and many things require him to do everything himself.

As for the Liannu, if he didn't explain some things himself, the carpenters under him could make mistakes by following the pictures.

However, all these things are increasing his strength from both tangible and intangible levels.

Zhao Cheng expected that Wu Qi might have heard that he had let him go on purpose by now, and that he would take Wu Cheng's news in the next year.

Thinking about coming to the other party, he would still laugh at him now, he is a mere remnant of soldiers, and he is afraid that even the walls of Wucheng will be difficult to get close to.

When the time comes, let the other party see what it means, the solidity of Wucheng is not as strong as thunder and fire.

Of course, it is indeed dangerous to refine high-purity gunpowder by indigenous methods. If it weren't for the subtlety of his Taoism, he has already realized Huangtian's re-creation, and he has the knowledge of "modern" chemical engineering. The combination of the two can guarantee that he will not be killed. Own.

In the case of a low level of industry, "alchemy" is indeed a dangerous job.

"General, this wood is not processed with mud and water. Even if it is carbonized with flames, it is still not durable, especially the delicate objects in it. I am afraid that there will be problems if it is fired at most three to five times. If it is replaced by iron, the iron is too brittle. , firing is not easy..."

Li Shan, a carpenter next to Zhao Cheng, pointed to the drawings drawn with charcoal on the wooden board and said.

He is illiterate, but Zhao Cheng has already considered this point. The entire drawing has only patterns, and then the dimensions marked with horizontal lines. One horizontal line is one foot, two horizontal lines are two feet, half horizontal lines are half a foot, and three points One horizontal is one-third of a foot.

Now half a month has passed since the release of the Jixian Order. Li Shan's carpentry level is actually not good, but in this mountain range, he is a tall man among short men, and Zhao Cheng is a meritocracy. , so among the carpenters, the other party can already talk.

But after such a long time, Li Shan's thoughts changed again.

From the initial apprehension, to the shock when I saw "Roshan", and now, because of making Liannu, I have had close contact with this general for a period of time, and then look at the management and law of the Yingtian Army .

Although he has never read a book, he is still instinctive. In his feeling, there is a feeling that the other party was working outside the mountains with him when he was young. In his spare time, he hid in the corner near the teahouse and listened to the drama of the teahouse.

He vaguely remembered that the content in the play seemed to be that the Great Ancestor of the Great Cang was seen by the senior doctor of the court at that time, and the senior doctor deliberately said in front of many people that this son did not look like a minister at first glance. , On the contrary, it seems to be a master.

As a result, Great Cang Taizu encountered many disasters, and in the end he almost died outside.

But then, what the senior doctor said in the follow-up, but it was a word. In the drama, the great ancestor of Da Cang led troops into the capital, captured the former senior doctor, and asked him, you see Can my soldiers and horses be strong? !

After that, he killed the nine clans first, and finally killed the senior doctor, skinned him and used it as grass.

Now Li Shan's thinking is that this general really seems to be the master, at such an age, he has such a cunning manner, could it be that there is really a godsend in this world? !

Huang Tian accepted the order and the world returned to Zhao, he didn't really believe in it at first, but now, he has a little faith in it.

Of course, he himself is old, at this age, everything is close to dung, but his son is still young, so he wants to pave the way for his son.

When he was speaking, he glanced at his somewhat dull son who was a little further away, and he couldn't help sighing in his heart.
