When everyone heard this, they were all shocked by Dongfang Wuxiang!
Unexpectedly, Donglin Kingdom’s iron smelting technology developed so quickly?
Especially Emperor Hongyuan, he immediately understood the meaning of Dongfang Wuxiang giving him this sword.
Dongfang Wuxiang used this sword to promote the iron smelting and forging skills of Donglin Kingdom. On the one hand, he showed the military strength of Donglin Kingdom, and on the other hand, he promoted the national prestige of Donglin Kingdom.
He also wanted to use this sword to tell everyone how powerful his Donglin country is now, so as to intimidate the Chu country.
Seeing this sword, Emperor Hongyuan felt very uncomfortable and his face turned ugly.
Had he known this, he should not have accepted this gift.
When Chu Xuanchen saw such a sword, he looked wary.
At first glance, it looked like a peerless sword. I didn’t expect Donglin’s iron smelting skills to be so powerful.
The most important thing in a war is the soldiers, and the weapons are the soldiers' hands. If the soldiers don't have good weapons, how can they win the war?
Most weapons are made of steel.
If the iron smelting skills are excellent, you can create more durable and sharp weapons; if the iron smelting skills are not developed, there will be no good weapons.
Without good weapons, it is easy to lose a war, and the country will be bullied at any time.
Nowadays, the iron smelting technology of Donglin State has developed so rapidly, but the iron smelting technology of Chu State still stayed at the level of more than ten years ago.
It seems that the Chu State must catch up and work hard to improve its iron smelting skills so as not to fall behind others.
At this time, King Zhao suddenly couldn't help it and stood up unconvinced: "Prince, you said that your Dragon Bird Sword is a magical weapon, a hundred times more powerful than ordinary swords? I don't believe it."
Dongfang Wuxiang said contemptuously: "If you don't believe me, you can use your sword to compete with the Dragon Bird Sword!"
King Zhao said coldly, "Okay, no problem."
Dongfang Wuxiang looked at the warrior and said, "Abu, come and compete with him."
"Yes." Abu said, holding the sword firmly, and the sword suddenly shot out a stream of cold light.
King Zhao looked at Emperor Hongyuan, cupped his hands and said: "Father, please allow me to bring my sword to the palace and compete with him."
According to regulations, the swords of civil and military officials cannot be brought into the hall.
They had to take off their swords before entering the palace, so if King Zhao wanted to challenge Abu with the sword, he had to ask Emperor Hongyuan for permission first.
Emperor Hongyuan glanced at the Dragon Bird Sword coldly, nodded, "It's accurate."
"Thank you, father." After King Zhao finished speaking, he asked Ah Zhen to go out of the palace to get his sword.
Yun Ruoyue looked at the Dragon Bird Sword and found that the sword was majestic, gorgeous and exquisite, and it looked indeed very sharp.
However, no matter how sharp this sword is, it is still an ancient sword and is far less powerful than a modern military knife.
Suddenly, she remembered that she had a Swiss Army Knife in her medical space that she had bought for outdoor adventures.
The Swiss Army knife is made of alloy steel. It is durable, very strong, and very sharp. It can seal your throat with blood.
Ancient forging techniques and raw materials were not as good as modern ones, so Dongfang Wuxiang's Dragon Bird Sword, no matter how strong it was, was not as strong as her little Swiss Army Knife.
Thinking of this, her consciousness moved and she changed the Swiss Army Knife in the space into her sleeve.
Then she took out her saber and watched secretly.
"What are you looking at?" At this time, Chu Xuanchen's low voice came to her ears.
As Chu Xuanchen said this, he had already seen the knife in Yun Ruoyue's hand. He couldn't help being stunned, "Yue'er, what kind of knife is this?"
"The hand, the scalpel, is what I use for surgery." Yun Ruoyue didn't know how to explain the origin of this saber to Chu Xuanchen, so she simply called it a scalpel.
Besides, you can't carry a broadsword in this hall, but she can carry a scalpel, so it's better to pass this saber off as a scalpel.
Chu Xuanchen looked at the knife in confusion, "This scalpel seems different from the ones you used before. Was it also given to you by your master?"
Yun Ruoyue nodded quickly, "Yes. My master is very powerful. She used to like to travel around. I don't know where she got this knife. But what I can tell you is, don't look at this knife.
It's short, but it's much stronger and sharper than Dongfang Wuxiang's Dragon Bird Sword. If you use my scalpel to compete with the Dragon Bird Sword, then the Dragon Bird Sword is no match for this scalpel."
"Really? Such a short sword is actually more powerful than the Dragon Bird Sword? Let me see." Chu Xuanchen asked curiously.
Yun Ruoyue handed the saber to Chu Xuanchen from under the table and whispered: "You are a person who knows swords. If you don't believe me, try using it!"
After Chu Xuanchen took the knife from under the table, he took it and gently slashed it on the table leg. A deep slit was immediately made in the table leg.
He didn't use any force at all, but the gap was so deep. If he had used his internal force, wouldn't the knife be able to easily cut off the table leg?
It can be seen that this scalpel is really powerful.
And based on his feel and perception, he found that the scalpel was very tough and very strong at first glance.
If the Chu State could forge large quantities of such swords, wouldn't they be invincible and omnipotent?
Thinking of this, he handed the saber to Yun Ruoyue and asked softly, "Yue'er, you have always been well-informed. Do you know how this scalpel is forged? If you know the method, I can order people to forge it in large quantities.
Only in this way will Chu’s iron smelting technology advance.”
Yun Ruoyue said: "I know, but it is difficult to make a knife of this quality. It requires the most suitable ratio of various mineral raw materials, and raw materials are not easy to find. The existing iron smelting technology is also different from
No, but it would be easy to make a weapon more powerful than the Dragon Bird Sword!"
"Really, can it be more powerful than the Dragon Bird Sword? As long as it is more powerful than the Dragon Bird Sword." Chu Xuanchen's eyes were filled with surprise.
Yun Ruoyue nodded, "Of course, the Dragon Bird Sword is indeed a good sword based on the existing iron smelting technology, but it is much inferior to the weapon I want to forge. But we need a lot of raw materials, such as iron ore and carbon.
Only in this way can weapons be forged, so you have to send people to find these raw materials."
She is a medical student and has studied physical chemistry, so she naturally knows how to combine chemical elements to forge a strong and durable sword.
Chu Xuanchen said: "Okay, I will send someone to handle this matter when we get back."
If you want the country to develop, you cannot rest on your laurels. You must always be vigilant and work hard, otherwise you will fall behind.
If you fall behind, you will be beaten, the country will be plundered, and the people will not live a good life.
He knew this truth very well, but Emperor Hongyuan didn't care about it. Emperor Hongyuan only cared about comfort and enjoyment, and didn't give him too much power.
He didn't have enough power in his hands and was suppressed by others. He couldn't show his power at all and couldn't do much for the people.
Therefore, he sometimes felt helpless and had to watch helplessly as the foundation created by the ancestors of the Chu family gradually declined and was in danger.
