The two came to the Chinese army's tent, and Wang Jian handed them the report of the victory of the thousand-man team at the stronghold.

Meng Tian was surprised. Fifteen thousand people were beheaded out of a mere thousand people. Basically, the vanguard of the Hu people was wiped out.

Naofumi couldn't see any clues. The few letters mentioned that he was satisfied with the use of firearms. After all, they were weapons made by himself. Naofumi looked at the good news and smiled heartlessly.

Meng Tian moved Naofumi with his elbow.

"Look, my firearms are powerful." Naofumi looked at the success report happily.

Meng Tian had a look of helplessness on his face. This guy was really too happy about his success.

"I don't know, Mr. Qin, what do you think of the Hu people's next move?" Wang Jian said, looking at the delighted Shang Wen.

"This, this, I don't know about the military. I can only make weapons. The better the weapons are, the greater the military victory will be." Naofumi said, rubbing the back of his head.

Wang Jian shook his head and said.

"However, I saw in the victory report that the Hu people are still not equipped with stirrups. They basically use bows and arrows with poor accuracy. There are few close-quarter weapons such as spears and other long-handled weapons. The 500 people who attacked this time were equipped with stirrups.

Stirrups allow you to ride freely on the horse without worrying about falling off. I think our cavalry team can form a team like this." Naofumi put forward constructive suggestions on weapons.

"Oh, you mean, equip the cavalry with polearms." Wang Jian said excitedly after hearing this.

"Yes. Since our army has stirrups, soldiers can basically control horses after half a month of training. After another month, they can basically control horses freely. Riding skills are already on par with those on horses.

There is no difference between nomadic life and nomadic life." Naofumi talked eloquently.

"The cavalry currently trained are basically selected from the infantry. They are not yet proficient in using the sabers and iron swords they have just received. But they are familiar with the long-handled weapons of the infantry formation. Why don't we use that." Naofumi

Speaking of.

"Yeah, yeah." Wang Jian nodded and said.

"Mr. Qin is right. I am a little stupid in my thinking." Wang Jian said.

"Actually, what I want to say is, why don't we form a heavy cavalry force." Naofumi said.

"Heavy cavalry." Wang Jian and Meng Tian said.

"What is that?" Meng Tian asked next.

"They are wearing heavy armor, and the horses are also wearing heavy armor. The soldiers are holding heavy weapons. For example, for example, the big spear outside." Naofumi said.

"You're talking about beryllium, right?" Meng Tian added.

"Yes, that's it." Naofumi responded immediately.

"Think about it, if we directly face the barbarian army and we send out such a heavy cavalry, the impact force will definitely be extremely powerful." Shang Wen said.

"The impact force has indeed increased. But the mobility and wearing heavy armor cannot be tolerated by horses and people for a long time. They will definitely not be able to keep up with the speed." Meng Tian said thoughtfully.

"I believe that the cavalry should be equipped with a certain amount of light cavalry. The heavy cavalry is mainly used for assault on the battlefield. The light cavalry should be like mercury, pouring into the enemy's formation and completely destroying the enemy." Wang Jian seemed to have thought of such a scene.

The heavy cavalry violently attacked the Hu cavalry army. The Hu people's light cavalry could not resist it. The Qin army's light cavalry quickly followed up, killing them wantonly. The battlefield became one-sided.

"Well, I think it's okay." Meng Tian nodded and said.

"But these heavy armors are difficult to raise in a short time." Wang Jian said with some embarrassment.

"General, aren't you guarding an iron factory?" Naofumi asked.

"Hahaha, I forgot. There is also a factory director here." Wang Jian said with a smile.

After coming out of the Chinese army's tent, Naofumi's pressure suddenly increased. Now we have to start smelting iron. It's still large-scale iron smelting. Now according to his instructions, the blast furnace has been completed.

The coal dug out from nearby has piled up into a mountain. With these Huns prisoners of war, Naofumi can completely ignore the coal mine accident. In addition, using explosives to directly blow up the covering soil on top, the speed has been astonishingly fast.

The transportation of iron ore is somewhat difficult. After all, it requires a lot of manpower and animal power. Those Huns prisoners of war did not dare to use it. Once these guys had horses, they immediately became warriors. You don't need to mention this kind of thing yourself. Everyone knows it.

The officers who guarded the prisoners of war were extremely cruel. As long as the Huns were a little slack, they could be beaten to death with whips. What a sin. God forgives my sins. Unfortunately, I don't believe it. I don't know if I can forgive them.

"I'm leaving first. I have to smelt iron quickly. The blast furnace is probably going to be damaged today." Shang Wen and Meng Tian said hello and left.

Meng Tian was still thinking about how to form heavy cavalry. Wang Jian handed over this important task to Meng Tian.

The blast furnace has been built. Some supports have not yet been dismantled. The work of smelting iron has already begun.

First use wood to ignite coal. The high temperature of coal burning is rapidly heating the iron ore in the crucible.

Four or five Huns were pulling the windbags with their bare arms. They felt extremely strenuous. The Qin soldiers next to them didn't care how tired they were. As long as they slowed down a little, they would immediately beat them, holding a long halberd in their hands.

With one hand holding the whip on his waist, he felt very majestic. Naofumi looked at the tortured Huns who had no strength and shook their heads and left.

Naofumi was walking onto the stand when a man who looked like a small official ran over quickly.

"Greetings to your lord." The junior official came and saluted.

"Get up. Don't be too polite in the future. It's a factory place and there are busy people everywhere. This is not good." Naofumi said.

"Thank you, sir." The clerk thanked him hurriedly.

"What's your name?" Naofumi asked.

"The younger one's name is Li Er." the clerk replied.

"Well, you know the technology of iron smelting." Naofumi asked.

"Let me tell you, my lord, I was a blacksmith in Xianyang. I was just in charge of furnaces and the like." Li Er said truthfully.

"Then what do you think of this blast furnace?" Naofumi asked.

"Back to your lord, I don't understand for a moment why your lord built such a blast furnace. What I'm in charge of is just some small furnace fires. Those iron stones are not refined in the crucible, but placed in the soil prepared in advance.

.Finally, when the fire is very strong, it begins to melt. Finally, it is taken out and placed to form an iron block." Li Er said like a treasure trove.

After Naofumi heard this, he felt something bad. What was this guy talking about? Could it be ancient iron smelting technology.

"Is this the technique you used in Xianyang?" Shangwen asked.

"Yes. The young one learned it personally from the master." Li Er said with some pride.

This personally means that the skills Li Er learned are the true inheritance of his master.

Naofumi climbed onto the stand and felt a wave of heat. Naofumi almost lost his footing. Li Er quickly stepped forward to support him.
