King: Start with tauren plowing

Chapter 80 Alps
The open space next to the Knockin River is full of broken stones.These stones were carried piece by piece from the Alps by the little tauren, and then hammered into pieces.

Charles vaguely remembered that iron ore was used as the raw material for making cement, but it was a pity that Winter Fortress did not have an iron mine.

Shire had no choice but to take out the iron ore in the warehouse of Winter Fortress. These iron ores were originally purchased by Shire from other families to make weapons, and now they are just used in the development of cement.

Then the Shire ordered the tauren to dig clay from somewhere on the banks of the Knockin.

After raising the raw materials, Shire started the first research and development experiment.

But knowing it is one thing, doing it is another.Originally, Shire had only a half-knowledge about cement production, and then this incomplete knowledge was implemented in practice, and various problems frequently occurred.

For example, the simplest problem of proportion, how many stones, how much iron ore, and how much clay need to be added to burn cement, although he remembered the raw materials, but the specific proportions were all in the dark.

This problem can also be overcome through repeated attempts, records, and improvements. Although it may not be solved for a while, there is hope after repeated attempts.

But in subsequent attempts, Charles encountered a second problem, the temperature of firing the cement was not enough.This problem is difficult to solve.

Charles tried to think about solutions, but the scenes where he used fire were all cooking. At first, he used a stove for cooking, then he used a gas tank, and then he used a microwave oven. He never encountered the problem of insufficient flame temperature.

As a result, Shire's road to cement development was temporarily stranded.

"Lord Baron, what shall we do next?" one of the Noxian veterans asked.

"Continue to try different ratios between iron ore, clay and stones, and see if you can make a low-quality cement under the condition that the temperature is not enough." Charles continued: "Besides, every The specific proportions of each attempt must be recorded on the parchment."

"I understand, Lord Baron." The veteran of Noxus responded. He really didn't know why the Lord Baron had a soft spot for this pile of broken stones, and asked them to burn charcoal every day, and then use charcoal Come roast these broken stones.

According to the baron, they are making something called cement. After developing cement, they can quickly build a fortress, a city wall.But what cement is, Noxus veterans really don’t know, but as long as the baron’s whims don’t involve their military pay and rations, he is willing to saddle up for the baron. Who asked the baron to send them money and food? .

……

Claw Tribe.

Peter had just gotten up from the woolen blanket when his captain, Sambu, pushed back his curtains and came in.

"Captain, what happened?" Centaur Peter stretched his waist and asked lazily. identity of.

"Brother Peter, we are leaving." Sambu said with a smile.

It seemed that there was finally a chance to deliver the news. Centaur Peter was very excited, but his face remained calm, and he asked calmly, "Captain Sambu, are we going to attack the Centaur Fang tribe?"

"Hey, I also want to attack the Fang tribe, but unfortunately, we have to go to the Alps to visit that human nobleman." Sambu's voice was slightly depressed. After conquering the Fang tribe, they can plunder women and find a few for themselves. Wife, but what good is a visit to a human fortress.

But then he cheered himself up and said: "However, the Tusk tribe will be merged into our Flying Claw tribe sooner or later. They are short of food and soldiers. They are not our opponents at all. If it weren't for this incident in the middle, we The Tusk Tribe has been annexed a long time ago, but you don’t need to be discouraged, brother Peter, if the human noble handed over the human who trampled on our altar early, we might be able to annex the Tusk Tribe before the God Sacrifice Conference.”

The Fang tribe is short of food, and it won't last long. If Baron Shire wants to annex the Fang tribe, he can start from this aspect. Peter secretly remembered this information in his heart, and then said: "Then when will we set off?"

"Departure today, the sooner the better. The priest has issued a death order to capture the human beings who trampled on the altar as soon as possible. Now, Lord Likas is preparing soldiers, collecting food and grass, and is ready to go."

Peter nodded and asked, "Then what do I need to do next?"

"You don't need to do anything, just stay by my side, just by Likas-sama's side."

"Brother Sangbu, you are so kind to me. When I see my brother, I must tell him that I have brothers like you."

Hearing this answer, the satisfied Sambu nodded cheerfully, and strode out of Peter's tent.

Later that afternoon, Likas led more than 100 people, carrying a letter from Priest Alihau, and headed towards the Alps.

……

On the back of the Alps, the tall silver fir trees are shining in the sunshine.

Under the tree, a few strong men of the Tauren held stone axes and slashed vigorously. These Tauren's strength and endurance are very good. Even if they cut down trees day after day, it would not only add some calluses to their hands.

bang~

The tall silver fir tree fell suddenly, stirring up dust all over the ground, and then the strong tauren who were in charge of cutting the tree picked up the silver fir tree one after the other, and carried it to the lumberyard not far away.

The Alps are not too far from Winter Fortress, but if you consider that you are carrying wood, it is indeed a bit inconvenient.So Carlos simply took the carpenters and apprentices to the Alps, where they directly built wooden plows.

Now the speed of building wooden plows has been greatly increased, but it is still not enough compared to the felling speed of the tauren men.However, the excess wood can be preserved by soaking, drying and other operations. This kind of treated wood is tougher than the directly cut wood. Even if the wooden plow is enough in the future, it can also be used to build homes, wooden houses, and even You can make a longbow, and you won't lose money anyway.

Now the felling of the Alps has begun. For convenience, Carlos even built a logging camp with the tauren men, surrounded by wooden fences, and protected by tauren soldiers and human soldiers.In addition, there are ten centaurs, and now they have been grazing outside the camp early, carefully guarding the arrival of the Silver Fox family.

Suddenly, a centaur scout rushed over. It seemed that the situation was very tight, so Carlos had no choice but to receive it.

As soon as we met, the centaur scout said: "The soldiers of the Silver Fox family found us and seemed to attack us."

　I'm sorry, I have an exam today, and I have to send off the seniors. I don't have time to code words, so I only coded a chapter. I'm so sorry.At night, my head was dizzy with coding, and this chapter was barely squeezed out.

　　I asked the editor about this book, and it is estimated that 20 words will be on the shelves, and Xiaobao will make up for it when it is on the shelves.

　　Finally, thanks to 20210226072921715 for the reward.
