Chapter 73: Blast furnace steelmaking method and the use of harnesses
Yoon'er, who was standing aside and fanning herself honestly, couldn't help but burst out laughing after seeing the good relationship between mother and son and Qin Hao's childlike behavior.
"Okay, Sister Yuner, if you dare to laugh at me, I won't teach you a lesson!"
Saying that, Qin Hao stepped forward and grabbed Yun'er's delicate hand. Yun'er was shocked when she saw this. Just as he was about to struggle, Qin Hao's other hand climbed up to Yun'er's slender waist. With a little force, he used the princess hug. The thin Yoona was hugged.
"Master, no!"
Yoona didn't expect Qin Hao to be so bold and actually hugged her in front of his wife, feeling sweet and shy in her heart.
The pink fist kept beating Qin Hao's chest, and Yun'er blushed and said, "Sir, my wife is still here, put me down quickly."
Qin Wen's eyes lit up when he heard this. Could Yoon'er's words mean that he couldn't hug her because she was there, but it was okay if she wasn't there?
Gently putting Yun'er down, Qin Hao smiled evilly and said, "Little girl, I asked you to laugh at me. Let's see if you dare to do it next time!"
"Well Well!"
Seeing that her son was teasing the maid in front of her, Jia Yu couldn't sit still. She immediately put on a straight face and pretended to cough.
Qin Hao smiled awkwardly, but his behavior just now was a bit bold, and his mother couldn't help it.
"By the way, Hao'er, what you brought back last time..."
When Qin Hao heard this, his face suddenly turned red with embarrassment. Could it be that my mother discovered the stockings and underwear I had hidden? It’s impossible, oh, it’s so embarrassing!
Although Jia Yu didn't understand why his son blushed suddenly, he didn't ask in detail, but continued: "That new steel-making method is very good. Once used, it can increase the steel-making capacity five times. In the future, our Yanmen Army may We can really achieve the goal of one person and one piece of armor.”
When Qin Hao heard this, he immediately cursed himself for being stupid. In this era, there were no underwear or stockings at all. Even if his mother saw it, she wouldn't know what they were!
Before returning to Yanmen, Qin Hao used the five lottery opportunities provided by the system upgrade, and finally won a complete set of design drawings for the blast furnace steelmaking method and harness.
After returning to Yanmen, he immediately gave these two technologies to his mother. In Jia Yu's opinion, among the two technologies given by his son, the most valuable was the blast furnace steelmaking method.
Due to the limitations of mining technology and forging technology, the production of steel is really limited, so it is impossible to mass-produce iron armor. Only mid-level and high-level generals are qualified to wear iron armor. Leather armor is the mainstream armor in the military.
In the general army, the proportion of armored equipment is only one-tenth, so soldiers equipped with iron armor are a symbol of the elite.
Although the Yanmen Army is rich and powerful, only one-third of its soldiers are equipped with iron armor. It is not because of lack of money, but because of insufficient steel production.
There is only so much steel in total, so it’s impossible to use it all to make armor, right? So do we still need weapons?
If the converter steel-making method that Qin Hao won through the lottery can be promoted in Yanmen, Yanmen's steel production will definitely increase significantly. By then, there will be enough steel to make iron armor, and the Yanmen Army is replacing all its personnel. After installing it, your combat power will be greatly increased!
"However, although this method is good, the requirements for the quality of workers and steel-making equipment are too high. The craftsmen are not able to create qualified molds in a short period of time, so it may take a while."
"That harness can be made and used immediately, but Hao'er, are you sure that it can really improve the cavalry's combat capabilities?" Jia Yu asked uncertainly.
Jia Yu couldn't understand if iron plates were nailed to the horse's hoof. Wouldn't it make the horse's hoof lame?
When Qin Hao heard this, he immediately smiled and explained: "Of course, horseshoes are actually equivalent to human nails. Horses' nails are different from people's and are very thick, so as long as you are careful, you will not hurt the horseshoes."
"Installing horseshoes is actually equivalent to putting a pair of shoes on a war horse, which can protect the horseshoe. In this way, the war horse will run faster and run longer! And saddles and other equipment will make the cavalry more stable on the horse. , will not drop the war horse easily!"
"So that's it." Jia Yu suddenly realized, but then said worriedly: "But the horse gear really has no technical content, and it can be easily copied and obtained by other princes. That's okay, but what if it is used by a foreign race? If you get it, then..."
The total number of cavalry in the Han Dynasty is only a few hundred thousand, but all the foreign people in the north are soldiers, and everyone, even women, are qualified knights. Therefore, the foreign people are the largest cavalry, and once they are equipped with horseshoes and saddles, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry will definitely increase. It will become stronger, and when the time comes, the people of Northern Xinjiang will be miserable.
Qin Hao naturally knows what his mother is worried about, but there is no way to stop it. You can't give up the opportunity to become stronger just because you are afraid that your enemy will become stronger, right?
"Mom, the best way to deal with aliens is not to prevent them from getting stronger, but to work hard to make yourself stronger until you finally defeat them!"
Civilization is always progressing. Even if you don't take out the harness, it will happen sooner or later. And with so many balanced figures nowadays, who knows who will take out the harness?
Qin Hao must try to maximize the effect of the harness before it is exposed by the balancing figure. This is the best way to respond.
"But…"
"Don't worry, we are not the ones who will make the most profit after the horse harness is born, so I am not planning to promote it now. I will find an opportunity to maximize the use value of the harness and allow Yanmen to make the most profit. During the promotion Come on! From now on, we can only keep it a secret as much as possible, and we can delay it for a while!"
"Hey, that's the only way it can be." Jia Yu sighed, then asked: "Hao'er, where did you get these two technologies?"
"Well, this, of course... I found it in the master's classics. It is said that it was invented by the ancestors of the Gong family!" Qin Hao said with a lot of nonsense.
"The wisdom of our ancestors, the contention of a hundred schools of thought is the most glorious period of Chinese civilization. Is it a blessing or a curse for the Han Dynasty to only respect Confucianism?" Jia Yu couldn't help but sigh, then shook his head and said: "Forget it, why? As a woman, why do you want to do this? Hao'er, can you tell me why you summoned so many troops this time?"
Yanmen Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack. To defend Yanmen Pass, you only need to gather all the defenders of Yanmen. Twenty thousand defenders are enough.
However, Qin Hao not only borrowed troops from aristocratic families, but also forcibly transformed the captives into an army. Now the total strength of Guangwu has exceeded 30,000, not counting the defenders of Yanmen Pass.
Why did my son summon so many soldiers and horses? We don’t need so many people to guard the gate, right? What does he want to do?
Although Jia Yu had some guesses, she was not sure. She hoped that her son could tell her in person.
