A crisp sound accompanied by a flash of sparks resounded through the sky.
Where the two knives came into contact, a gap the size of a grain of rice appeared, which was enough to show how violent the strike was.
"Not enough, come again."
Yuan Shu frowned, this was not the effect he wanted.
"cut."
Dian Wei shouted loudly and swung his sword fiercely again, Yuan Shu did the same.
"clang."
There was another loud noise, it was still the same place, this time the gap that was originally the size of a grain of rice suddenly became the size of a soybean.
"My lord, that's enough. If you continue to fight, the two swords will be useless."
As a top military general, Zhao Yun pays attention to having good hands, eyes, and body. He has seen all the changes in the two weapons, and it hurts in his heart. A good sword is definitely the pursuit of a warrior, and it cannot be like this.
Seeing Zhao Yun's anxious eyes, Yuan Shu and Dian Wei also stopped.
"Zilong, are you feeling distressed?"
Upon hearing Yuan Shu's words, Zhao Yun stepped over and snatched his Bailian Steel Sword from Dian Wei's hand, looking aggrieved.
"My lord, I spent a lot of effort to get this Hundred Refined Sword. How can I not feel sorry for it? Don't you feel sorry for that good sword in your hand?"
Zhao Yun held the knife and looked at Yuan Shu who was holding the knife.
"Me? Just pretend that I don't feel bad anymore, because I can have as many knives as I want. Just push them up."
Following Yuan Shu's words, the craftsmen from the craft camp came out pushing several carts, with several large boxes placed on each cart.
"What do you mean? My lord, you wouldn't tell me that these boxes are full of jade knives, right?"
After hearing Yuan Shu's words and thinking of these boxes, Zhao Yun's throat trembled when he spoke.
"Haha, facts speak louder than words, go and unbox it yourself."
Yuan Shu didn't give any explanation, just let them experience the fun of unboxing by themselves.
Zhao Yun and others couldn't help but gulped after hearing Yuan Shu's words, including Dian Wei. Although he knew that the Hun Yu Dao could be mass-produced, he was quite surprised that so many of them popped up.
The four of them each chose a car, touched the box in front of them, swallowed again, and then slowly opened the box.
"Wow."
"Oh my god."
"It's really all of them."
"Hun Jade Sword."
The four people's shouts in unison almost overturned the entire school ground, because the box contained nothing but neatly stacked jade knives, braving the cold air in the sun.
After opening a box, the four people opened all the boxes on the cart one after another. Without exception, they all contained brand-new Hunyu knives.
"Senior brother."
Zhao Yun winked at Gao Lan, and Gao Lan nodded understandingly, and then they all came to Yuan Shu's side.
"Lord, Zhao Yun has something to say."
"Lord, Gao Lan also has something to say."
The two of them half-knelt in front of Yuan Shu.
"Get up and say what you have to say."
Seeing the two of them like this, Yuan Shu couldn't help but be stunned.
"Lord, please be sure to equip our cavalry with the Hunyu Sword first. Please."
"please."
After hearing what they said, Dian Wei and Ju Yi suddenly realized what they said. They quickly ran in front of Yuan Shu and half-knelt down.
"My lord, you should equip yourself and go to camp first."
"No, the guards should be equipped first."
Looking at the four people in front of him, Yuan Shu smiled slightly.
Hunyu knives made using the steel filling method have fewer processes and are more convenient to make. Therefore, the output has been greatly improved compared to ordinary steel knives. It is still difficult to satisfy the entire army in a short period of time, but who will do it first?
He had a plan in mind for the equipment.
"Okay, the production capacity of the Hunyu Sword is only so small. It is impossible to equip the entire army in a short time, so I decided,
Zhao Yun and Gao Lan are each equipped with five thousand handles. Ju Yi, if your first army can get the Liannu, just give it less and give you one thousand handles. As for Dian Wei, you also share one thousand handles, and then give them to Wen Chou's Huwei army.
Divided into three thousand handles, this is fifteen thousand handles.
Mr. Wen, do you have any questions?"
After Yuan Shu made such a rough analysis, he set his sights on Zheng Hun. After all, how much he could produce depended on his craftsmanship camp.
"Lord, before you go on the expedition, I can deliver you 20,000 pure jade knives, but I need iron ore, the purer the better. In addition, there are a large number of craftsmen. There is a serious shortage of manpower. There is also a venue. I need a
The new site will make the ironworks bigger."
Zheng Hun is indeed a wonderful man, and he is now making demands on Yuan Shu.
"These are not problems. If you don't have it, just buy it at a big price. If you can't buy it, grab it from me. In short, you must ensure your needs.
As for manpower, there is no problem. From now on, the salary of all craftsmen will be improved. Craftsmen can get two-thirds of the salary of formal craftsmen.
Each time these craftsmen bring out a craftsman apprentice, they will receive one month's salary as a reward after passing the assessment, and each time they bring out a craftsman apprentice, they can be exempted from one-tenth of the tax.
The last place you mentioned may be a bit exaggerated. I decided to build a new large-scale ironworks in Handan and also move some of the craftsmanship camps there.
I have been to Handan before and know that there is a large amount of iron ore resources there, and it is a rich ore. If it can be mined, it will definitely be enough for us."
Yuan Shu said that he was a modern Handan person. If he talked about other things, he might not know it, but he still knew a little about the large iron mines in Hebei. Handan Wu'an and Tangshan Luanxian were both well-known in China.
Although I don't know what Wu'an is called now, it is not far away from Handan City where Hu Fu rode and shot. It is only a few dozen kilometers. As long as the general range is known, it is definitely not difficult to detect iron ore.
"My lord, do you still know about geological exploration?"
Hearing Yuan Shu's words, Zheng Hun's eyes also flashed with light. He didn't expect that his lord could not only invent the steel filling method, but also design cross-era products such as repeating crossbows and stirrups. Now even iron ore exploration is like this.
proficient.
"I understand a little bit, I understand a little bit."
Yuan Shu followed the principle that being modest means taking advantage, so he shamelessly admitted it.
"Okay, with what my lord has said, I will definitely be able to complete the mission. Even if the craftsmanship camp works hard, I will deliver the 20,000 swords to you before you go on the expedition."
Now that everything he wanted has come true, Zheng Hun has nothing more to say, just do it.
"Okay, as long as the 20,000 pure jade knives are delivered in place, and all the craftsmen and craftsmen in the craftsman camp will be rewarded with one month's salary, I, Yuan Shu, will do what I say."
Yuan Shu is not a stingy person. As long as his craftsmen work hard and can help him build the Hunyu Sword on time, he is not a stingy person either.
"In that case, Zheng Hun would like to thank the lord in advance for all the brothers and sisters in the Craftsman Camp."
I didn't expect Yuan Shu to be so considerate to his subordinates. You must know that the craftsmanship camp has grown to tens of thousands of people now. Coupled with the number of craftsmen they are about to expand, there may be 20,000 or more by then.
Everyone is given an extra month's salary as a reward, which is a huge expense.
"Haha, everyone can tell lies. You hand over the knife and I will give you the money before we go out. It's as simple as that. Whether you can get the money depends on whether you are careful enough."
