Huang Yi and Ka Leitu waited for their horses to be faster, pursued them at full speed for more than ten miles, and cut down dozens of horses before slowing down.
Huang Dapeng, Zhang Dong and other Han knights caught up, and there were bursts of joy and laughter.
Zhang Dong was a little excited at this time, because he had just shot two armored cavalry with his crossbow.
He has been studying hard and practicing hard, and his riding skills have improved a lot, but he is still not as good as most regular knights.
He often studied Huang Yi's drawings with Qi Xiaoshan, participated in improving the flintlock gun, and pondered the craftsmanship of rifling, so the two were the closest.
Qi Xiaoshan and other seven or eight teenagers followed Huang Yi to learn cultural knowledge and drawing, and felt that their brains were getting brighter and brighter.
They imitated Huang Yi's crossbow according to the gourd painting. Because the strength of the material was difficult to control, they failed many times.
Just a dozen days ago, luck came. Qi Xiaoshan and a few young craftsmen actually imitated two crossbows with almost the same strength.
Of course, the main reason for the success is that his father Qi Dashan, his uncle Lan Jinkui and other great craftsmen helped select materials with their years of experience.
These days, there is no way to test the material of steel or know the temperature of the steel-making furnace fire.
You can only rely on experienced masters to look at, chisel, torture, grind, and even lick and taste it, and stretch out your hands to feel the heat.
Huang Yi knew that the temperature of the furnace fire was very important when making steel, but he couldn't read the heat and could only tell Qi Dashan, Lan Jinkui and other masters the information recorded on his mobile phone.
Using air temperature technology, a large amount of coking and refractory bricks are fired. The fire temperature of the steel-making furnace in the base is enough to make the molten steel fully liquid.
Qi Xiaoshan can already write a thousand Chinese characters and is the study representative and counselor of the craftsmen. He basically does not need Chinese pinyin to make up the numbers when making records.
He did not record how many degrees the furnace temperature reached under what circumstances.
Instead, the furnace temperature is divided into five levels: small fire, medium fire, high fire, strong fire, and ultimate fire.
The dark red flame is the lowest level of small fire, and the deep red and orange flames are medium flames.
Pure orange and golden orange are considered fire, and golden flames are fierce fire.
The fire is incandescent and dazzles the eyes. When it cannot be looked at directly for a long time, it reaches the ultimate fire temperature.
This situation must occur when coke or coal is burned and the air temperature device is turned on.
You can't see the sky-blue flame because smelting generally cannot reach such high temperatures.
With the experience of the old master, Huang Yi's guidance, and the brainstorming of young people who have learned cultural knowledge, there are more and more types of materials in the base, and the quality of steel is getting better and better.
Therefore, we can imitate two pulley crossbows, although the quality is far inferior to the original products, but the quality is better than the hand crossbows of the Ming Army.
The crossbow equipped with a pulley can save half the effort, and Zhang Dong, who is relatively weak, can easily load the crossbow arrows.
Zhang Dong is usually responsible for the safekeeping and maintenance of Huang Yi's crossbow and Minigun. Of course, he regularly practices shooting and crossbow shooting.
Therefore, Zhang Dong is also very good at using crossbows. In addition, he has a talent for shooting. After getting the crossbow imitated by Qi Xiaoshan, he got used to it for a few days and was able to make perfect arrows.
When Zhang Dong saw Huang Yi, he immediately raised his reloaded crossbow and praised:
"Sir, this is a copy made by Qi Xiaoshan. It's really easy to use. The younger one has already shot two Karaqin Tatars equipped with iron armor."
Huang Yi knew that Qi Xiaoshan and the others had spent more than half a year trying to imitate the crossbow. He smiled and said, "It's a pity that the output is too low. Qualified products depend entirely on luck."
"Yes, if the high quality of the output is guaranteed, all cavalry who cannot shoot arrows can be equipped with equipment, and our army will definitely be even more powerful!"
Gu Peng
"Building this kind of crossbow is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the yield is too low to be worthwhile. I suggest Qi Xiaoshan and the others focus on improving the firing rate of the flintlock gun!"
"They have been researching and developing, and have scrapped more than 100 shots, and now the firing rate has reached more than 60%."
"Oh? If this continues, wouldn't it be possible to reach an 80% fire rate in another year and a half?"
"Before we set off, Qi Xiaoshan and the others were already using new materials with stronger elasticity to make the trigger reed and hammer. If successful, they can increase the firing rate to 80%."
"Okay! Very good! You always remember that firearms are the most correct direction of development!"
"remember!"
"Huang Yi Batulu, you are the Baturu I admire the most! I will always admire you in my life." Karitu suddenly spoke, startling people, and his tone was strange.
Huang Han knew that this boy was naive and could not understand Chinese that was too long, so he replied with a short sentence:
"You are very good, and you are worthy of being the number one warrior in the Hedanbaatar tribe!"
Then Karitu said anxiously: "When are we going to save Hedanbaatar's life?"
It turns out that the naive Ka Leitu was thoughtful. He flattered her first and then made a request.
Who knows that Huang Yi just asked: "Is it still necessary to rescue now?"
I don't know if Ka Letu didn't hear it clearly, or if he heard it clearly and couldn't understand it.
The first warrior began to scratch his head, full of doubts: What does it mean? Should I save him or not?
Seeing Karitu's confused look, Zhang Dong smiled and explained in Mongolian:
"The winter camp of the Seleng tribe was raided, and too many people fled. Most of the knights must have gone to report the news to Seleng.
There is no need for us to rush to rescue Hedanbaater now. It should be Seleng's turn to rescue the captured Jiaxiao.
At this time, we must notify Hedan Bater as soon as possible to follow and kill the Seleng tribe and Jiannu who are about to retreat. "
This time Karatu understood and said happily: "That's right! The women and cattle and sheep in Seleng tribe have all been lost. They will never survive this winter. They will definitely take them home and use them as cattle and sheep."
"So we don't have to look for them and beat them, they will come and beat them!"
"Yes, yes! Huang Yi Batulu is not only the bravest Batulu, but also the wisest Batulu. I admire the Batulu the most!"
"You should go back and report the news now, let Hedanbaatar hold on, and wait until the Selen tribe retreats to entangle them and harass them."
"Yeah! Yeah! You can come and leave whenever you want. Nothing in the world is so cheap. We have already lost more than two hundred warriors. We must kill that old man Seleng for revenge!"
Thinking of revenge, Ka Laitu suddenly became excited and said viciously: "Several of my brothers died at the hands of the Seleng family. I want to kill all the men in the Seleng family! Brothers, follow me!"
One of his men said: "It seems we should go back and deliver the letter immediately!"
"Don't worry, Hedanbaatar's side won't collapse for a while. Let's kill them first and vent our anger first."
He was a straight man, so he immediately hit his horse and whipped his whip and ran towards the Seleng camp. Seven knights from the Hedanbaat'er tribe also followed him, howling.
Obviously, these eight should have gone to massacre the nephews and brothers of the Seleng family.
