Chapter 241 More powerful weapon-cross bow

Since Emperor Emperor Mu successfully created hard and easy-to-use iron tools in the imperial capital, all the princes in the world have learned and imitated the iron-making art of Xiguo to create iron tools.

From weapons to agricultural tools, to daily necessities, iron tools have room to play, and the originally worthless iron ore once became the most intimate goods and was sought after by countless noble people.

At the same time, it also attracted countless people to go deep into the mountains to search for iron ore deposits.

Izumo Country has abundant domestic resources, so there is naturally no shortage of iron ore. Izumo Lord began to smel iron and build iron tools as soon as possible.

"King, the iron tools have been created. Please take a look!" The army casting division held an iron axe over his head and presented it to King Yun.

Izumo took the iron axe with anticipation. The iron axe was not big, similar to a firewood chopping axe, in the shape of a half-moon shovel. The back of the axe was dark brown and the axe blade was bright white. It seemed that it had been opened. Izumo gently wiped the axe blade with his fingers, and suddenly felt a sharp edge.

"So sharp and looks very strong, not like bad gold at all, it seems to be no worse than US dollars."

Before this, people called gold gold, while copper was called US dollars, and iron was called rotten gold. Iron was used very early, but the iron tools at that time were really useless, so it was called rotten gold.

Now Izumo's opponent is so fond of iron axe.

After the iron-smelting technique of Xiguo came out, iron could no longer be called rotten gold.

The king of Izumo thought in his heart, then injected his vitality into the iron axe, slashed it casually, and a sharp axe blade slashed out of nowhere. The vitality was released and slashed on the ground in the distance. Suddenly, a deep-sinked cut mark appeared on the ground.

"The king is mighty!"

The army forging troops praised with flattery.

The king of Izumo looked half happy and sad: "It is already comparable to bronze weapons. Iron weapons can be used in the army in the future. The strength of Izumo has increased significantly, but... it is much worse than the iron tools of Xiguo, and it seems that it is not as good as the farm tools used by the farmers of Xiguo."

Hearing the king's comments, the head of the army beside him could not help but lowered his head and dared not speak.

"Master Tuo, is the iron tools of Izumo Kingdom suitable to catch up with Xiguo?"

Master Tuo is another military commander in the Izumo Kingdom. He is inferior to Master Liao. Now that Master Liao is gone, his status has increased and he has become the first military commander in the Izumo Kingdom.

However, the first military refining trooper of Izumo Kingdom was flushed at the moment, and he seemed a little embarrassed: "King, this... Xiguo took the initiative. No one can match their achievements in iron making and iron making. If we want to catch up, it may take some time."

"Well, try to catch up with Xidu as soon as possible!" Izumo is not the kind of tyrant who is unreasonable. He understands the difficulties of the army casting division and the craftsmen, so he said again: "The iron tools of Xi's country are also made of ordinary iron ore, and there is no natural and earth treasure added. As long as you improve the skills of army casting, you can."

Master Tuo felt relieved when he heard this, and nodded like a chicken pecking at the rice, and issued a military order, claiming that he would create a better iron tool as soon as possible.

Seeing this, King Izumo also felt vaguely expecting it.

He was fooled by Xi before, and he thought that if he wanted to create hard and usable iron tools, he had to incorporate natural treasures, but who knew that this was not the case at all.

Fortunately, now that Xidu has the iron smelting technique, although it is not as good as the iron utensils created by Xidu, at least everyone has iron utensils, and the difference is not much.

For a moment, Izumo Guojun was feeling much more relaxed, and his vague chest pain was also relieved.

A similar scene was staged among the major vassal states in the summer dynasties, and the monarchs of various countries urged craftsmen to smel iron and make iron.

It can be foreseen that it will not take long for the entire summer dynasty to undergo earth-shaking changes due to iron tools.

These enthusiastic monarchs only saw the benefits of iron tools, thinking that their troops would become stronger because of iron tools, and could use iron tools to reclaim more fields, and the country would become richer and richer.

However, no one sees the conflicts and contradictions under the changes of the times - whether it is the monarchs of various countries or the emperor who is above the emperor.

If anyone can "see", then there is no one else except Yao Yun.

Yao Yun knew that after the birth and widespread use of iron tools, productivity would increase and the entire society would undergo earth-shaking changes.

Slavery and the well-field system will be greatly impacted by the emergence of iron tools.

Yao Yun was very happy about this. Huangshi Tianshu sent him an SSS-level mission to liberate slaves. He was determined to complete this mission and rescue the slaves, but his power was too small and he was powerless. Now he gave iron tools to attack slavery. I don’t know if Tianshu would count the credit on him.

If Yao Yun could get the reward for this, it would be very happy.

Yao Yun's mind has not been on these empty targets for the time being, but has turned his attention back to Xidu.

Cangman and Hu Yi returned to Xidu with the Sui army. Yao Yun held a grand reward banquet for the soldiers who returned triumphantly.

This time, the Xi army made great contributions on the battlefield. The emperor gave a large number of rewards, including cattle, horses, wealth, slaves, and eight hundred troops. However, when they came back, there were two thousand people. The long chariots and horses were magnificent and spectacular.

Yao Yun was naturally very happy. There were no horses in the south, and horses were expensive. There were not many horses in Xidu. Carriages were pulled by oxen, and horse carriages were not common.

After rewarding the three armies, Yao Yun, Wu Tong and Bald Dragon summoned Cangman and Hu Yi.

The two reported to Yao Yun the details of the expedition.

Hu Yi was extremely excited when talking about the battle: "King, we didn't know that we were so powerful before in Xiguo. The results of this battle scared us. The Dongyi barbarians held stone spears and the stone axes could not hurt our soldiers at all, but our soldiers were fatal."

The shitty Cangman responded decisively at this time: "This is all the credit for iron tools. Without the king's iron tools, we can't achieve such a brilliant achievement. The king's position in Xidu can affect the battle situation thousands of miles away, and even alarm the princes in the world. It's really amazing. I, Cangman, am convinced!"

Hu Yi was convinced when he heard Cangman's flattery. Yes, all this was because of the iron-smelting technique invented by the king. Why didn't I expect it? It's such a pity.

Cangman's licking skills are really good. Even if Yao Yun's immunity is strong enough, he feels helpless at this moment.

The bald dragon couldn't stand Cangman's flattery and frowned and asked, "Don't rush to flatter, I just heard you say that on the way back to Xidu, you saw that many countries have begun to build iron tools and use iron tools."

Cangman nodded with certainty: "Yes, their iron tools are not as good as those of our Xiguo, but I am still a little worried. Everyone has iron tools. Even if our weapons are better, the huge advantage of the past will no longer exist. Xiguo is small and other countries are large."

Cangman is not only a licking dog, but also a very thoughtful licking dog. The worries raised at this time are very meaningful.

The bald dragon and Wu Tong's face were sunk. Giving iron tools was an unanimous decision. However, how to maintain Xidu's superiority and strength after giving iron tools is the issue they need to consider.

At this moment, everyone looked at Yao Yun - because at this moment, Yao Yun looked relaxed.

Bald Dragon: "Criminal, what do you think?"

Yao Yun smiled and said, "This matter is very simple. From the material aspect, we can smel iron into steel to make our weapons sharper and stronger. On the other hand, we can build more powerful weapons."

"What weapon?" Everyone spoke in unison.
