three kings

Chapter 215 Taking control of the three treasured swords of the Central Plains
The knife in Liu Hua's hand is a straight knife, which is very similar to the current "ring head knife", but it is improved on the basis of it. It removes the ring at the end of the handle that is common in the world, and extends The short handle was changed to a long handle that can be used with both hands, making it a long straight knife with a narrow blade and thick ridge that can be used with both hands.

Sun Can knows this kind of knife, it is called Tang knife, and it was invented by Liu Hua.In Huainan, only [-] were made, and they were handed over to Zhang Liao's Bingzhou wolf cavalry. In the battle of Xiangjiang, they showed great power and their lethality was extremely terrifying.

A total of 3000 enemies were killed in that battle. Among the 7000 people, [-] died under the claws of Bingzhou wolf riders.It can be seen that the power of this weapon is really amazing.

However, this weapon has great advantages as well as fatal disadvantages.The advantage is that it is sharp and hard, which is very suitable for killing enemies and beheading generals. The disadvantage is that it is expensive and irreparable. Basically, after a few battles, these weapons will be scrapped.

If Sun Canjun uses this kind of weapon, even if there are political geniuses like Xun Yu, Gu Yong, and Chen Qun, Sun Canjun will face bankruptcy within two years.

Therefore, while marveling at the sharpness of Tang Dao, I also deeply regret its lifespan.

At this moment, Liu Hua took out this kind of knife again, has he overcome the shortcomings of high cost and irreparable?If so, that would be great, Sun Can thought happily.

Unable to hold back the excitement, he hurriedly said, "Has this Tang Dao overcome its costly and irreparable weaknesses?"

Liu Hua said: "There are things that are perfect in the world, and the high cost remains the same, but today's Tang knives are forged from Hunchun steel, and the texture is quite different. Although the cost is high, it can already be repaired, even after days and nights of hard work , The blade of this knife is incomplete, but it can still be repaired, which greatly reduces the original consumption. We can't afford to support a large army, but the weapons of Yuwei's army can do it."

Sun Can felt a little regretful, but soon felt relieved, good things can't be obtained lightly.No matter what I say, I can equip an army, but the other princes don't even have one, so I should be content.

"What is this hui steel?" Sun Can asked curiously. He had heard of first forged steel, second forged steel, third forged steel, and the legendary hemp steel, but he had no impression of this hui steel.

"This steel was made by Master Zheng Hui according to the secret skills handed down from his ancestors. It is stronger than ordinary steel, but not as hard as hemp steel. So I had to name it myself." Liu Hua replied casually.

After he put the Tang knife on the rack, he took out another knife.The saber has a wide back and thin blade, and the blade seems to be relatively heavy. The saber has smooth lines, and the handle is generally slightly curved towards the blade.

"This is..." Sun Can was taken aback by the strange knife and asked, "Can this thing be used on the battlefield?"

Liu Hua said with a smile: "Of course, this knife can be called a Mongolian saber. The blade is heavy, which is conducive to increasing the strength of the chopping. The powerful impact force drives the saber to complete the killing actions such as slashing and slashing, and can easily inflict devastating attacks on the enemy."

Sun Can took the Mongolian saber, glanced at the bamboo stool two feet away, took two quick steps forward, and slashed at the bamboo stool. The saber battle is divided into two parts.

Sun Can was slightly taken aback, and immediately said happily: "A good knife, if it is on horseback, its power will more than double. If all Wenyuan's wolf riders are equipped with this kind of equipment, their strength will definitely rise to a higher level."

Liu Hua smiled complacently. He is a historian and has studied the history of the Yuan Dynasty. It is recorded in "Yuan History • Bing Zhi II": The permanent guards are also the forbidden soldiers of the emperor.During Fang Taizu's time, Mu Huali, Chi Laowen, Borhu, and Borshu were the four cowards, and the cowards were divided into guards. ... The time name is Tuoliban, and the rhythm is still called the four masters. The Taizu ordered his generation to lead the cowardly leader.For those who are timid, they still say that they are going straight to the guards.

In the fourth year of Taihe, Genghis Khan formed the Qixue Army and selected elites, but the number was not large.Later, the Qixue Army was expanded to more than [-] people, mainly composed of nobles, generals and other meritorious children. Every ordinary soldier of the Qixue Army has the salary and rank of an ordinary general. Its commander is even more extraordinary, with four people , they are the "Four Heroes" at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty: Mu Huali, Chi Laowen, Boerhu, and Boershu, and they were also named "Four Qixue".

The Kexue army was invincible and fought all the way to the Indus River, and the weapon used by the Kexue army was the favorite and most practical saber of the horse nation.

Liu Hua took out another knife, which looked like a saber, but with a long handle and no guard. The blade was slender and sharp, with a point and a blood groove.

Sun Can also put the saber back, and motioned Liu Hua to talk about the use of the saber.

Liu Huadao: "This knife is called Zhanmadao, and its shape is similar to a saber, but a saber is only suitable for cutting, chopping and other actions, but this knife can also perform stabbing in addition to cutting, chopping, chopping, etc. like a saber. , poking, etc. On the battlefield, often stabbing and poking can make the enemy lose combat effectiveness quickly.

The function of this blood groove is not to let blood out. The main function is that if there is no blood groove on the knife body, it will be very difficult to draw the knife due to the sharp muscle contraction after the knife penetrates into the human body. A gap is created so that air enters the muscle and it is easy to draw the knife for the next attack.In addition, the Saber can be used with a shield or held with both hands, and is the best weapon for infantry. "

Sun Can was used to the shock that Liu Hua brought him, his head just short-circuited for a while, and then he recovered.Asked: "Is there any more?"

Liu Hua smiled wryly and shook his head. He combined and analyzed these things bit by bit based on the historical data in his mind. For these three weapons, he spent a full two years sorting out, researching, and painstakingly obtaining them. Of these three weapons, how could there be a fourth one.

This trip to Jingshan really opened Sun Can's eyes.At the same time, it also made him realize the importance of these equipment.Take corresponding measures hastily.

Sun Can said: "Father Ya, you see that this place is so important, do you need to send troops to guard it?"

But Liu Hua shook his head and said: "This is not a real arsenal. The real purpose of this place is research. The quieter the place is, the safer it will be. If you work hard, it will startle the snake and arouse suspicion."

Sun Can nodded and dismissed the thought.

As soon as he returned to the government office, Sun Can summoned Xun Yu and Chen Qun to discuss the introduction of new weapons with huge sums of money. Xun Yu had extraordinary foresight and immediately realized the importance of these weapons.

Although in the governance of Jingzhou, many righteous acts were carried out, which led to a lot of financial funding, but Xun Yu still proposed to spend two-thirds of the military funds to forge these equipments to prepare chips for the future war against Yuan.

Sun Can readily agreed.
