Chapter 44
"My brother went to heaven and was well-informed."
"The truth of the kingdom of heaven?"
Li Yuanji took his waist card and received the meal, found a stone to sit on it, pointed to the plate in his hand and said:
"I don't know, but everything that my third brother said is reliable, that's fine."
"Yes, just like this meal, it was also the prince who figured it out. It would be really convenient to do it like this."
The lunch on the plate that the two were having was improved by Li Yuanba according to the methods of later generations.
Iron meal plate, one meat and two vegetables, and rice can make people eat full.
It is also very convenient to clean the dining plate afterwards.
Of course, because Li Yuanba's hydraulic stamping machine has not been made yet, these are all knocked out by the blacksmith here with hammers.
Fortunately, this thing is simple, just a few holes caused by iron films.
After Li Yuanba proposed the concept of this pallet, the blacksmith said with contempt:
"Your Majesty, what machine do you mean? It doesn't need to be done at all. I just need to take my apprentice to do it. It's okay to get hundreds of them for you a day."
Then, sure enough, the blacksmith used a stone slab to spread the iron sheet, and the speed was not slow. When the molten iron was ready, it poured on the stone table. After the molten iron cooled and solidified, it turned into thin iron sheet.
Then, with large scissors, cut the iron sheet into a tray size.
Then I knocked and beat it with a wooden hammer, and the iron pallet was quickly made.
Li Yuanba was stunned by the sight. He left a sweat of shame for underestimating the wisdom and ability of the working people.
But Li Yuanba still needs to make the stamping machine in his mind. After all, with a stamping machine, you can make thousands of meal plates a day, which is still faster than the blacksmith master and apprentice.
But far water cannot quench near thirst, and there is no way. Before the arsenal started construction, it can only be built by blacksmiths.
Li Yuanji and the others finished their meals and handed over the plates. They found that many teams had already finished their meals and started to rest.
When we were resting, everyone was not idle, so we continued to compete. You sing a song about Lang Ximei, and I sing a song about big rats. It felt a bit soft and unsatisfied.
At this time, a team suddenly sang a unique song, which immediately shocked the audience.
"I'm a soldier
From ordinary people
Defeat the Turkic Dog Robber
Eliminate Liu Biejun
I'm a soldier
Love your family and the people
Fierce battles test me
Stronger position
Hehehe hehe the gun is tightly held
Can see clearly with your eyes
Who dares to start a war
Fight it without mercy
From ordinary people
Defeat the Turkic Dog Robber
Eliminate Liu Biejun
I'm a soldier
Love your family and the people
Fierce battles test me
Stronger position
Hehehe hehe the gun is tightly held
Can see clearly with your eyes
Who dares to start a war
Fight it firmly without mercy”
Yang Haoliang was shocked and said:
"This is a song made by whom it sounds straightforward and comfortable. Although it is difficult to enter the elegant hall, it has a unique style!"
Li Yuanji laughed and said:
"Who else can you? Of course it's your prince!"
Li Yuanba, the King of Zhao of Xifu, who was busy with trouble, was angry at the bronze mirror in his military camp.
It turned out that he had started to grow a beard, but there were no razors or mirrors in the Sui Dynasty. Although razors could be replaced by something, mirrors were difficult.
There is no way, I didn't expect to become a handsome boy, but I always want neatness.
When he found the scissors and was about to cut his beard, he found that he had made a mistake. Without a clear mirror, he could not see his beard. How to cut it?
But now, all the manpower has been arranged by him to build the new Loufan City and resettle refugees. No one will cooperate with any glass kiln to build it now.
In addition, others are desperately striving to survive. You are a prince, and everyone is watching you. Are you embarrassed to waste people's efforts for your own selfishness?
The Xiannu came into the camp and reported to Li Yuanba about the current training of the recruits.
Seeing Li Yuanba’s depressed look, he asked:
"Sanlang, why are you unhappy? I think the current situation is great. All the refugees have been resettled. Not long after, the new Loufan City will rise up. This was something that others dared not think about before, and you did it after replacing it. Are you still unhappy?"
"What do you know? I just want to shave comfortably, but the mirror is too bad and I can't see clearly. I want to make one that can see clearly, but I'm afraid that it will delay the current situation of the big size."
"Sanlang is talking nonsense again. Can't you see this mirror clearly? There are still mirrors that can be seen more clearly in the world?"
"That's because you don't know it. My mirror can almost make you see the exact same self."
"This mirror is OK now."
Unable to explain it to the ancients, Li Yuanba suppressed his stinky and beautiful emotions and asked Xiannu seriously:
"How is the situation in the military now?"
Xiannu replied seriously:
"When Shunlang, the entire army has completed preliminary training, the marching is underway, and the formal exercise can be carried out in about ten days."
"Oh, are they unable to hold on?"
"Yes, they are all preparing to compete for the position of the commander."
"How much equipment is there in the armour now? Have the entire army been covered in armor?"
Xiannu calculated silently in his heart and replied:
"It is fully equipped, and 30,000 people are already wearing armor. The weapons are also the basics of everyone's long soldiers and three short soldiers. In addition, the clothes, individual soldiers' rations, shoes and socks are all ready."
Li Yuanba picked up a piece of armor from the tent. This was a piece of armor, which was the cotton armor lining without cotton.
There is no way, there is still too little cotton now. Except for Li Yuanba’s own personal guards, most of the soldiers are still wearing ordinary armor.
Moreover, this armor is also a simple version, just a combination of iron and skin, and it is just a breastplate, with no protection at all on the limbs and back.
It’s not because Li Yuanba has no money, but because he doesn’t have enough people to weave a complete armor for every soldier.
And after a while, as long as the stamping machine is ready, all kinds of plate armor will become popular, and you can have whatever you want, and it will be lighter and more sturdy.
So in order to deal with it temporarily, Li Yuanba simply made a semi-finished zajia.
Li Yuanba put down the armor in his hand, picked up a spear, and looked carefully.
This is the unified long weapon of Li Yuanba's 30,000 troops, the gun body made of white wax poles, and the gun head made of stainless steel. Asked:
"How is the gun training done?"
Xiannu shook his head and said helplessly:
"It's still not possible. The time is too short, and many people still cannot grasp the key points. After forming a formation, they can still keep it unconfused when facing ordinary light cavalry flying shots, but it is still difficult to face the war horses without panic."
Li Yuanba nodded and said:
Chapter completed!
