A few days later, Ye Xing and the remaining people were in the new factory building, refining various metals with the various ores they bought, mixing them into molten iron, and re-smelting the alloys.
Ye Xing found that he still couldn't read his previous knowledge reserves, but with a lot of common sense that transcended this era, he still knew the approximate types of alloys, but he couldn't know the exact proportions of the various components.
In fact, the world does not know the existence of several metal components, and only a few are written in books.
Therefore, Ye Xing only had to make constant deductions in his mind, and there was no need to do any experimental analysis at all. It just took a lot of time, and in the end he could still draw a generally correct conclusion.
After all, there is no need to be too accurate, as long as the performance requirements are generally met, and you can slowly experiment and improve in the future.
Ye Xing's main purpose is to make hard and flexible small swords, as well as crossbows, small hooks, and high-tenacity and soft ropes, all of which are tools for special operations.
These equipments are for the safety of the villa, and also for the new city guard army to prepare for entering the forest for trials.
Ye Xing designed his own small smelting furnace. Based on the few alloy principles he knew before, he divided himself into several groups and added dozens of different metals to the iron in various arrangements and combinations. After five days, After days and nights of testing, the formula ingredients of several alloys were confirmed.
Different weapons require different characteristics, that is, different alloy formulas, sword formulas, crossbow formulas, and bowstring formulas. Ye Xing wrote them all down.
After 5 days of smelting, Ye Xing let the alloys he prepared were sent to many blacksmith shops in the city to be made according to Ye Xing's design.
Ye Xing's newly designed sword has blood grooves on both sides, and the handguards are also much larger, completely protecting the hand holding the sword.
There is a hole in the middle of the new crossbow. There is a small tube on the tough bow string. The arrow tail is inserted into the small tube. The arrow must be shot from the small hole. It does not need to pay attention to any archery techniques at all. Everyone only needs to pull the bow string, aim at the target, and then When shooting at a target 200 steps away, the arrows are all small triangular arrows made of iron.
All kinds of small special warfare equipment, such as flying needles, flying knives, and tough ropes, are also produced by people and only assembled after they are all returned. And it is installed on the combat uniform designed by Ye Xingzhong that is full of pockets.
There are a total of 300 sets of these things, executed under the orders of the city lord, all made by others, and each blacksmith shop is supervised by Ye Xing's people throughout the process, and only a part of it is produced. When the production is completed, the design drawings are taken back.
Ye Xing also purchased various healing medicines in large quantities and put them in small packets in one of the pockets of his combat uniform.
Ye Xing first asked everyone in the villa to wear new combat uniforms, and conducted extreme training every night. With the energy pills and Qi Yi Dan given by Ye Xing for recovery, they were still energetic when they woke up every morning.
Ye Xing first gave each member of the villa a set of special operations equipment to familiarize them with its various uses. Ye Xing himself also trained with him in full gear for a few days. After twenty days of rigorous training at night, the staff at Xingchen Villa have now mastered the basic usage.
After everything was ready, in the military camp, Ye Xing and Li Qifeng called all the recruits to hold a meeting in the playground.
Ye Xing said, "Starting tomorrow, we will enter the forest for training. There is a great risk, and we may lose our lives."
"Now you have a free choice:
1. Stay and guard the military camp;
2. Join the old city guard;
3. Exit and go home;
4. Go to the forest for special training;”
"There are 4 signs in front of you. Whatever you choose, stand behind the corresponding sign! Remember you can only choose once!"
"If you choose to go to the forest for special training, life or death is not guaranteed. You may be injured, you may die from the mouths of wild beasts, poisonous snakes and insects. There are countless inexplicable risks. No one may be able to help you, and no one will pity you."
"One thing I can guarantee is that as long as you survive, you will definitely become a master. Your life will be completely different. Now, this is the choice!"
"Don't have any burden, this is just a choice. Whether you go or not, you will get the same salary, and there will be no more if you go! You can only choose once!"
Everyone was whispering, and the venue became serious and heavy. Everyone looked at each other, a little confused.
When Li Qifeng saw everyone looking confused, he was very dissatisfied and shouted:
"No one is forcing you! But now let's start choosing. You can decide for yourself on the first four brands. Don't look at others, just follow your own heart!"
After a while, a recruit walked to the No. 1 card first, and then several more, and more and more, and a few walked to the No. 2 card. After waiting for a long time, a person walked to the No. 4 plate, and then another one. Half a quarter of an hour later, everyone stood behind the number plate of their choice.
There are 103 people behind plate number 1, 42 people behind plate number 2, no one behind plate number 3, and 150 people under plate number 4.
Ye Xing smiled and said, "Very good! Now I announce that the personnel behind the No. 2 plate will go there to receive three months' salary of 60 taels of silver, and then follow the city lord's palace guard to report to the city guard. Your own Everything can be taken away, including all weapons! I wish you happiness in the City Guard!"
These people all bowed to Ye Xing and Li Qifeng, "Thank you for your cultivation!" Ye Xing and Li Qifeng bowed in return.
When this group of people walked away, Ye Xingcai said, "Those behind the No. 1 plate will also line up to receive their salaries, and then take a vacation. They will return to the military camp in five days, and everyone can have a good reunion with their families."
"Starting from the 6th day, Commander Li will continue the training. It will be a more difficult training and it will never be easy. You will become the instructors of the recruits in the future. You must be extremely capable. If you fail to pass, you will be eliminated! Remember, this is your choice. .You guys go and enjoy it now!”
Everyone laughed heartily and bowed to Ye Xing and Li Qifeng, "Thank you, Commander!" Ye Xing and the other two waved their hands to tell them to leave quickly.
Ye Xing turned to look at the remaining personnel, "You chose the arduous special training in the forest without any holidays! Now go to the warehouse behind the military camp and receive a set of equipment for each person. Have a good rest tonight and gather at the usual time tomorrow morning. Put on brand new military uniforms. Disband!"
Everyone said, "Yes! Commander!"
Ye Xing and Li Qifeng ignored everyone and turned back to the barracks to discuss for a while.
Then Ye Xing rode to the city lord's mansion to report to his master about this special training.
After listening to the report, Li Xuantong nodded and told Ye Xing to be careful, attentive and fully prepared.
Ye Xing briefly introduced his preparations.
Li Xuantong understands that this is also Ye Xing's own special training. Only under various difficult conditions can one break through human limits. If he practices mediocrely, progress will be extremely slow. For a genius like Ye Xing, only bravery can Going straight is the right way.
Ye Xing bid farewell to his master and returned to the villa, inviting everyone in Yunhai Village. "This time, I will be away for 2 months. Lin Tie will be responsible for the internal affairs of the villa. The textile factory will continue to produce as usual and continue to improve."
"The business of the shops in the city is controlled by Mu Sheng, salaries are still paid as usual, and the income is managed by Lin Tie. Remember! Everyone must obey Lin Tie's arrangements! We must look further and don't focus on this thing!"
Ye Xing paused for a moment, took out a design drawing, and said to the rest of the people, "This is a design drawing of a steam engine, used to replace the role of a waterwheel. You first make a prototype according to my design, and then keep improving it. , No matter how much money you spend, you must get it out, even if you don’t eat or drink for 2 months, you have to get it out.”
"Brother Lin Tie fully supports them, don't be afraid of spending money. As long as this thing is built, we will have endless money. I can be sure that we will have endless money!"
Lin Tie nodded solemnly.
Ye Xing continued, "Some problems can't be solved, so just use money to hire real craftsmen to solve them. Remember, don't let others know everything about us, but there is no problem with some external processing. You can draw the drawings separately." I’ll have to find someone else to process the details, but someone must follow me and know all the details.”
"You must master all technical skills by yourself. You can also use money to buy technology. We will do everything possible to find talents for us to use!"
Ye Xing handed another stack of banknotes to Lin Tie, "This is 200,000 taels, feel free to spend it, what we want is a career, not just a small amount of money!" Lin Tie nodded.
Ye Xing had dinner with everyone in Yunhai Village, and then talked with his mother, saying that he would go out for military training for a while.
Mother Ye completely trusted her son and didn't understand what her son was going to do. She just told her son to pay attention to his health and then let him go back to the military camp.
Ye Xing packed up his personal belongings, packed them into a small bag, and then returned to the military camp.
