Three Kingdoms: Marry Cai Wenji at the beginning

"Master, is this kind of blast furnace really feasible?" Yang Tie asked with a skeptical look.

At this time, Yang Ling took Xu Chu Dianwei and walked in the nameless river valley.

The surroundings were already surrounded by craftsmen, as well as helping Qingzhuang, these were all workers recruited from Xiangping, and Yang Ling did not intend to use castrated slaves for these jobs involving technology.

After all, in any case, they are all aliens, and now they are slaves, does not mean that they will not escape, in case someone escapes back to the grassland with iron-smelting technology, won't it be that the aliens have advanced iron-making technology?

Therefore, the activities of those alien slaves were limited to the mines, and their daily work was mining.

Yang Ling smiled faintly and spoke, "Okay or not, just try it?" Can the blast furnace be built according to my requirements?

Yang Ling was very confident, because the steelmaking method he wanted to engage in was actually the small blast furnace steelmaking method of the later Great "Leap" period.

This method is very simple in technology and very simple in operation, which is undoubtedly very suitable for this backward productivity of the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

Although there are many shortcomings of this method, it is enough for Yang Ling!

Looking at the row of small blast furnaces in front of him, Yang Ling was very satisfied, although due to technical limitations, these things may be very unqualified in the eyes of future generations, but Yang Ling was very satisfied!

However, this was 1,800 years ago, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, what else do you want?

For Yang Ling, it can be used!

As for the quality, Yang Ling doesn't care, as long as he doesn't fry the furnace.

Even in the later life, in the great "Leap" advance, isn't it also so blind? Didn't you also practice steel?

"Master, Old Immortal is always a little worried!" Yang Tie looked at the so-called small blast furnace that had been piled up with stones, limestones and other things, and said worriedly.

As for the blower, Yang Ling made some improvements based on the memories of later generations.

Yang Ling said lightly: "Let them light the fire, first raise the temperature of the stove." Yang

Tie had no choice but to personally go over and command, and I have to say that Yang Tie is still very good.

After a while, the craftsmen were busy, some blowing the wind and others tending to the furnace temperature.

Yang Tie pointed to a place and said puzzled: "Master, what is the use of this place?"

Yang Ling smiled faintly and spoke: "This is a heat accumulator, and it is precisely because of it that the furnace temperature can rise rapidly and watch."

Saying that, Yang Ling personally operated it, and sure enough, with the existence of an improved blower and heat accumulator, the furnace temperature quickly increased.

Everyone only felt a heat wave coming, very hot, far exceeding the temperature of their usual steelmaking.

Yang Ling nodded in satisfaction and said, "You can add ingredients!"

Therefore, Yang Tie immediately commanded countless shirtless workers to add iron ore to the blast furnace.

Thanks to the efforts of the workers, enough iron ore was quickly added.

Time passed slowly, Yang Ling probably calculated the time, and felt that it should be about the same!

So he ordered, "Open the outlet!" "

Boom..." Streams

of molten iron slowly flowed out along the outlet of the small blast furnace!

Follow the outlet and slowly flow into the mold that has been prepared for a long time!

Then, slowly solidifies, turns into pieces of iron! (Note, I also don't make steel, just looked it up on the Internet, the approximate process, experts don't spray, after all, everyone is just ordinary people, it is impossible to understand everything)

Suddenly, there was a cheer around, and Yang Tie was also admired.

As a blacksmith, he never imagined that steelmaking could be so simple!

"Lord Dacai, this steelmaking method is really good!" Yang Tie said sincerely.

Today's mainstream steelmaking method is the steel frying method, which not only has a complicated process, but also the quality of the steel trained is not good.

Yang Ling's method, according to Yang Tie's estimates, can open at least four furnaces a day, as long as the iron ore is enough, the steel that can be practiced every day will be an astronomical amount.

Yang Ling smiled lightly and said modestly: "This prince is also blind, Yang Tie, this steel mill will be handed over to be responsible, in addition, you have to find more craftsmen to establish my own weapons factory in Liaodong."

"Please rest assured, the little one will go all out." Yang Tie hurriedly bowed.

Yang Ling nodded with satisfaction, so he thought that when he went back, he would first draw out the things he needed and let Yang Tie arrange for someone to start production.

Born in Liaodong, there are countless war horses, and Yang Ling's first thing to get is naturally the war horse Three Treasures.

In fact, in the late Han Dynasty, horse pedals and saddles were already available, but the saddle was not a Gaoqiao saddle, but the saddle was first introduced to the Central Plains by the Xiongnu.

At the beginning, it was a cushion, and later, in order to sit comfortably, the ends of the saddle began to be raised, gradually forming the later Gaoqiao saddle, and the saddle of the late Han Dynasty had entered the Gaoqiao saddle period, so Yang Ling only needed to improve it slightly.

As for the horse pedal, it has also appeared at this time, but due to the backwardness of ironmaking technology, the saddle at this time is not made of iron, generally a unilateral horse pedal made of cloth or wood, which is actually more demanding, as long as the horse pedal is made, it can undoubtedly make the knight more labor-saving, which is very important for the improvement of cavalry combat effectiveness.

As for horseshoes, there is indeed no at this time, China needs to appear in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, as for the large-scale appearance of horseshoes in the Central Plains, it will have to wait until the Yuan Dynasty!

When Yang Ling returned to the Taishou Mansion, he began to draw the three treasures of the war horse, ready to wait for the right time and give it to Yang Tie to build.

Immediately, Yang Ling thought about it and drew the Quyuan plough in the later life, which was even more important.

You know, Liaodong is the northeast of the later generations, the land is fertile, and it is the famous Beidaicang in later generations.

However, the productivity of the late Han Dynasty was too backward to be cultivated, which made Liaodong a bitter cold place.

At this time, the people did not even have iron agricultural tools, almost all of them were wooden, you can imagine how inefficient such agricultural tools are!

Therefore, when Yang Ling came to Liaodong, the first thing was steelmaking, as long as there was enough steel, he could create enough equipment for the army.

It can also create enough agricultural tools for the people to reclaim the black soil in the northeast.

The efficiency of iron farming tools is undoubtedly much higher than that of wooden farming tools, and as for the curved plow, it is also necessary.

Today's straight ploughs require three people and two oxen to plow the fields, and the efficiency and depth of ploughing are far inferior to the curved ploughs.

With the Quyuan plow, it will undoubtedly greatly improve the farming efficiency of the people, and for Liaodong, which has a small population, it can also greatly liberate the labor force!
