Chapter 73: Technical content
"By the way, Hao''er, what you brought back last time..."
Jia Yu''s eyes were full of solemn expression and said in a deep voice: "That new steelmaking method is very good. Once used, it can increase the amount of steelmaking by five times. In the future, our Yanmen Army may really achieve the goal of one piece of iron armor for each person."
Before returning to Yanmen, Qin Hao used up five lottery opportunities from the system upgrade, and ended up getting a full set of design drawings for blast furnace steelmaking and riding equipment.
After returning to Yanmen, Qin Hao immediately handed over these two technologies to Jia Yu. In Jia Yu''s opinion, among the two technologies given by Qin Hao, the most valuable one is the blast furnace steelmaking method.
Due to the limitations of mining technology and forging technology, the output of steel is really limited, so it is impossible to produce iron armor on a large scale. Only middle and high-level generals are qualified to wear iron armor. Leather armor is the mainstream armor in the army.
In general, the proportion of iron armor is only one-tenth of the equipment, so soldiers equipped with iron armor are symbols of elite forces.
Although the Yanmen Army was very generous, only one-third of the soldiers were equipped with iron armor. It was not because they had no money, but because they had insufficient steel production.
There is only a little steel in total, so it is impossible to use it all to build armor. Do you want the weapons?
If the converter steelmaking method obtained by Qin Hao''s lottery can be promoted in Yanmen, the steel production in Yanmen will definitely increase significantly.
By then, there will be enough steel to build iron armor, and after all the members of the Yanmen Army have changed their clothes, their combat power will surely increase greatly!
"However, although this method is good, it has too high requirements for workers'' quality and steelmaking equipment. Craftsmen are unable to create qualified molds in a short period of time, so it may take some time to slow down."
"Those riding tools can be created and used immediately, but Hao''er, are you sure this can really improve the combat effectiveness of the cavalry?" Jia Yu asked uncertainly.
If the horse''s hooves are nailed, wouldn''t it be that the horse''s hooves be lame? Jia Yu is a little confused.
Qin Hao smiled and explained with a smile: "Of course, horse''s hooves are actually equivalent to human nails. Horse''s nails are different from humans and are very thick, so as long as you are careful, you won''t hurt the horse''s hooves.
Installing horseshoes is actually quite a bit like putting on a pair of shoes on the war horses, which can protect the horses’ hooves. In this way, the war horses will run faster and continue to run for longer! Equipment such as saddles will make the cavalry more stable on the horse''s back and will not easily drop the war horse! ”
"I see."
Jia Yu suddenly realized, but then said worriedly: "But these riding tools really have no technical content, and they will easily be imitated and obtained by other princes. That would be fine, but if they were obtained by foreign races, it would be..."
All cavalrymen in the Han Dynasty were only more than 100,000, but all the people of the northern alien race were soldiers, and everyone, even women, were qualified knights.
The alien race is the major cavalry, and once they are equipped with horseshoes and saddles, the cavalry''s combat effectiveness will definitely become stronger, and the people in the northern border will be in trouble. Qin Hao naturally knew what his mother was worried about, but this was something that could not be stopped. We can’t give up the opportunity to become stronger just because we fear the enemy to become stronger, right?
"Mom, the best way to deal with alien races is not to prevent the other party from becoming stronger, but to work hard to grow yourself until you finally get defeated!"
Civilization is always improving. Even if you don’t take out your riding gear, it will appear sooner or later. And now there are so many balanced characters, who knows which one will bring out your riding gear?
Qin Hao must try his best to maximize his role before the harness is exposed by the balanced character. This is the way to adapt.
"But…"
“Don’t worry, if you are born, we are not the ones who make the most profit, so the child is not ready to promote it now.
The child will find an opportunity to maximize the utilization value of the horse harness and make the most profitable for me in Yanmen, and then promote it!
After that, you can only keep it as confidential as possible, and it is only a temporary delay! ”
"Oh, that''s all."
Jia Yu sighed and asked again, "Where did you get these two technologies Haoer?"
"Well, this, of course... was found in the master''s classics. It is said that it was invented by the ancestors of the craftsmen!" Qin Hao said with a mouth full of humility.
"The wisdom of our ancestors, the contending of a hundred schools of thought was the most glorious time for Chinese civilization. Is it a blessing or a disaster for the Han Dynasty to respect Confucianism?"
Jia Yu couldn''t help but sigh, and then asked, "Hao''er, why did he call so many troops this time?"
Yanmen Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and defending Yanmen Pass is enough to summon all the defenders of Yanmen Pass, and having a 20,000 defenders is enough.
But Qin Hao not only borrowed troops from the aristocratic family, but also forcibly adapted the prisoners into an army. Now the total strength of Guangwu has exceeded 30,000, which is not considered the defenders of Yanmen Pass.
Why did Qin Hao summon so many troops? There are no such many people to guard the gate? What exactly does he want to do?
