When Pan Geng moved to Yin, I initiated Jian Shang

Chapter 51 Set off to build a city in the northwest!
As soon as the pedestrians left, Xinqu sat on the bed at home and thought hard for half an hour. He really couldn't find a better solution. He scratched his hair to vent his anger and simply lay down on the bed.

Go to bed and get busy tomorrow.

However, Xin Qu’s movements made the young man’s ax visible.

This is the first time I know that being a clan leader can lead to so many troubles. Qu, a guy who has considered all aspects since he came back from the cliff, and is able to deal with everything with ease, is forced to be like this. It must be too difficult!

Silent all night.

Xinqu got up and ordered his people to gather together.

After taking a final look at the number of people, after excluding the manpower that I could finally squeeze out, there were only the old, weak, sick, pregnant and young left in the tribe, adding up to more than 700 people.

It really squeezes out the last bit of manpower!
"Shu Dagu, you take them and set off. Leave half of the remaining women behind. Cooperate with the old man and the 12-year-old boys to take care of the tribe. I will take away all the naturalized people and slaves."

Xin Qu watched as Shu Dagu took away the last group of male slaves and naturalized Qingzhuang.

Hurry to find Gulu Xiaogui, he needs to get the bamboo coin mold first.

"Hey, it was cooled two days ago, and it's almost done now."

Gulu Xiaogui smiled and asked Xinqu to follow him.

Xin Qu took two steps, and suddenly a girl with crow feathers appeared next to her. Wu Xiaoye followed without saying a word.

The two of them arrived at Gulu Xiaogui's house. They could feel the heat wave even before they got close.

Outside the house, there were two clay molds. Gulu Xiaogui went up to them and sprinkled them with a little cold water to see if they made any sizzling sound.

When he found that there was no sound, he reached out and touched it, then picked up the wooden hammer on the side and tapped the clay fan gently.

After a while, the mud fan cracked, revealing a golden luster.

He opened the golden plate and revealed the lines inside: "Now, take a look and see where it needs to be modified."

Xin Qu lowered his head. The golden plate was as big as a palm. On this side were the four characters "Youxin Tongbao" engraved in official script, and a circle of zigzag patterns on the outside.

There was a bit of burr, but she handed it to Wu Xiaoye. She easily picked up the file on the side, gently scraped off the burr, and then carved the depth around it.

As for the other piece, there are two delicate snakes chasing each other's tails.

It is a simple anti-counterfeiting mark.

Xin Qu took out a bottle of pine ink, melted it, and smeared it on two boards, and then covered it with Xin's bamboo coins.

"Tsk tsk, that's really good. If time is not tight, the hinge you left on this board can be installed."

Gulu Xiaogui looked at the bamboo coins made by Xin Qu. He was very surprised and liked Xin Qu even more.

It would be great if this boy could be his apprentice!
Xinqu didn't say anything. He paired the tails of the two boards, then inserted a bamboo stick into it, leaving a hole right through the tails of the two boards until it stuck.

Then pull it back a little, and after taking the length, put the prepared pair of corks on the bamboo sticks, and then cut off the extra bamboo sticks. A "semi-automatic mooncake mold" is completed, and then it is extended. Just add chassis and leverage.

"Can it still be like this?" Gulu Xiaogui didn't expect Xinqu to solve it like this. He thought Xinqu was planning to let him get a bronze axis later!
After all, it is not easy to thread the shaft without slipping!
"It's just a small trick." Xin Qu tried it out and covered all the prepared bamboo coins, which was a thousand pieces, which was also a lot of work.

But after it is stamped, although the level of exquisiteness is not as good as that of shell coins, it still gives people an illusion of nobility.

After leaving it to dry, Xinqu collected the bamboo coins and asked again: "There should be no problem with the mechanism of the crossbow, right?"

"Small shafts are difficult to make, but what you did today gave me an inspiration. Bronze shafts are difficult to make, so use hardwood, but the strength may not be enough." Gulu Xiaogui thought of an alternative.

Nowadays, the mechanism of the crossbow is stuck on the keys of the lookout mountain, the teeth, the hanging knife, and the center of the hook. It requires a small bronze shaft. However, it is not easy to make a small bronze shaft, and it is even more difficult to manufacture it on a large scale.

The trigger of Xinqu Peinu's crossbow is made of pure bronze. When Gulu Xiaogui made it for him, it was just a small bronze shaft. It took a month for the mold to dry in the shade before it could be built and poured. After that, it still needed polishing and assembly.

Time-consuming!

"It's okay. It's dismantled into parts and manufactured in a standardized manner. It can be replaced at any time when it's damaged. When a large army is fighting, the crossbow can't actually fire a few rounds."

Xinqu waved his hand, don't think that in later generations of TV, the way war is written is like a rain of arrows.But in fact, arrows are very expensive!Who is rich enough to wash away the land with arrows?

A battle lasted from spring to autumn, more than half a year passed, and at most sixty arrows were consumed.

So, how many times can a crossbow really be fired in a war?

The last time he challenged Lin Di, he only fired two rounds.

The deterrent power of the crossbow lies in its simple training. A farmer can quickly become an archer after one month of training, while an archer needs several years of training.

Therefore, for tribes that focus on farming, crossbows are magical weapons that save money, time, and effort. Once they are manufactured on a large scale and the accessories can be replaced with each other, the war situation will really change.

"Okay, then I'll look for wood. I don't know what wood can withstand the pulling force of the crossbow arm."

After receiving Xinqu's affirmation, Gulu Xiaogui went about his business with a smile.

Xinqu said goodbye to him and left Gulu's house in a hurry.

"After I leave, the tribe will watch over you. At night, try to gather the tribe members to tell you the myth I told you."

Xinqu said to the girl who was following behind her without saying a word.

"Yes." Wu Xiaoye nodded slightly, "Are those two women also here to listen?"

"Which two?" Xinqu asked doubtfully.

"The two women from the Shaodian clan you brought back."

"Oh. The two of them. If you want to listen, just stay. If you don't want to listen, you don't have to force them. In addition to listening to your stories, you also need to lead the women to weave and don't let them stop working. Otherwise, when people are idle, they will I’ll have random thoughts.”

Xin Qu knows his way.

In the past six months, he had been thinking about a lot of things because he was too idle.

It has only been less than seven days since I took the position of clan leader, and everyone is already numb from work.

I meditated for a while yesterday, but I really couldn't deduce a good optimal solution. My mental energy was exhausted and my physical strength was exhausted, so I fell asleep directly.

When I wake up, I am finishing all kinds of problems.

Therefore, as long as you are busy and don't have enough time to think about things, you can really relieve a lot of uneasiness.

"They weave and I tell stories?"

"Yes, you let the old people take care of the children, and the women look at the children while weaving, and then they don't let them talk casually, but listen to you telling stories. It's up to you to tell the stories I wrote to you more vividly. Now. I have to get busy."

Xin Qu and Wu Xiaoye came to the warehouse while talking.

The men and women waiting here have already carried hoes, food, and weapons.

These women are all childless widows and girls over 12 years old who are not yet married.

It is really an advanced tribe that implements equality between men and women!

Xin Qu looked at the last group of people with a wry smile, and he really sucked them all dry.

If something happens to this group of people, the Xin family will disappear completely in the Haihe River Basin.

"Not much to say! We are surrounded by hungry wolves! If we don't want to become the fat in the eyes of other drought-stricken tribes this winter, we must build the city before autumn!
We only have about two full months! "

Xin Qu took a deep breath and put on the mask of the patriarch, and waved the bronze ax that symbolized the patriarch's power forward: "Let's go!"

　Please read it!I hope I can get to the third round!
