Now this Arsenal Bureau has become the weapons manufacturing center of the entire Xuan Army, at least three times larger than the one in the Styx!

There are also people left on the side of the Styx, and it is Niu Tong's three apprentices who are taking the lead. And here is Niu Tong himself, and the number of craftsmen has reached 3,000!

Everyone knows that the emperor attaches great importance to the forging of weapons, and the treatment of craftsmen in the forging field is much higher than that of ordinary Xuanbing or other departments, so even some local blacksmiths with great skill and ingenuity have come to join the army, and they want to enter the Ordnance Bureau.

Xuanbao didn't finish a cup of tea, and Niu Tong came back with three knives! The foundations of these three knives are all Xuandao, but they have been transformed.

The first knife was to cut the blade into a jagged shape, and Xuan Bao counted it, and on the blade less than two feet, there were eighty teeth.

The second knife was a bit intimidating, with only four teeth of the same length, each five minutes long.

The blade of the third knife is a little thicker, and the blade has not changed, but the back of the knife has been divided into serrations, forming a double-sided knife, which looks more imposing!

Xuanbao said to Niu Tong: "Find an open space, erect a stake to test the knife, ride a war horse, and find a brother with great strength!"

In terms of arm strength, who has the strength of Niu Tong? Therefore, Niu Tong himself is the one who tried the knife! An open space has been cleared outside the forging field, and three wooden stakes seven feet high and thigh-thick are placed on it.

The stake was buried very firmly, and the wood was also very hard jujube wood, Xuanbao looked at it twice, but he was still not satisfied, and said to a craftsman: "Find a piece of cowhide to tie it!"

Soon, someone brought a piece of cooked cowhide, divided it into three pieces, tied it to three wooden stakes, Xuanbao casually asked for a Xuandao, cut a few knives on it, and then looked at the traces, felt that it was almost, and said to Niu Tong: "First use an ordinary Xuandao to rush over and try a knife, and then try all three knives!"

Someone brought a tall war horse, Xuanbao checked the horse's teeth and hooves, and then patted the muscles on the horse's legs, although it is not as strong as the pioneer battalion, but it is not bad, this is not a combat unit after all, these horses are only used to test weapons, there is no need to be so picky.

"Okay, that's it!" Xuan Bao nodded at Niu Tong, someone had already moved a chair and placed it in the open space five zhang away, and a coffee table was placed in front of it. Xuanbao was not polite, just sat on the chair and drank tea, watching Niu Tong test the knife.

The first one is an ordinary Xuandao, and the Xuanbao is not long, at most three feet. The Xuanjun still uses the Xuanspear the most, and the Xuanbao is not used until the Xuanbao is dismantled in hand-to-hand combat.

With Niu Tong's size, this Xuan Dao is really a little petite. Niu Tong stood three hundred steps away, this distance can allow the war horse to run away completely, and the speed can reach the extreme!

This is estimated to be the tallest war horse of the Ordnance Bureau, carrying a body that is obviously two laps thinner than when I first saw it on Rooster Ridge, but it is still a circle thicker than ordinary people, some trembling, even Xuanbao is a little frightened.

But when the war horse runs, there is no need to worry, the momentum is really a kind of thunderous shock! For a while, the dust was flying, and everyone was so frightened that they hurriedly invited Xuanbao back a foot away, and saw that Niu Tong had already passed by the wooden stake!

Everyone only heard the sound of "bang", and then there was a crisp sound, Niu Tong had already rushed over the stake, and there was a broken knife stuck horizontally on it, and the remaining half had been thrown out of the hand, but although the strength was fierce, it did not fly too far to hurt people and fell on it.

Rao is so, everyone is also a little staggered, a fierce man is a fierce man, this jujube stake wrapped in cooked cowhide was cut into most of the knife body by him, and two craftsmen with thick arms and round waist pinched the blade and pulled it out for a long time!

And then there is the eighty teeth of the knife, but this time it is very disappointing, has been replaced by a stake Niu Tong did not use all his strength at all, as if he just cut the knife into the stake, I heard a crisp sound of "pop", the knife was broken!

Then change the third knife, this time it is the one with forty teeth, and you may have a hunch that this one will also break, so Niu Tong deliberately accelerated when he rushed through the stake, and slashed violently, and the knife was really broken, but the knife saw also smoothly cut close to the cowhide stake!

This is not a simple cut, but almost the entire surface of the knife is embedded in the stake! It is cut into a semicircle, and if the knife is stronger, it is possible to cut the stake!

There is also the last knife, this knife is the one with serrations on the back of the knife, and the serrations are all inclined in the direction of the handle, and there are not many, about fifty teeth, which is not too long, about three points high.

According to the standard of the Central Plains, one zhang is ten feet, one foot is ten inches, and one inch is ten, and these three points should give the length of the eyelashes about the same, which is really not a very long tooth for a knife saw.

It seems to feel that this time the test knife is extraordinary, everyone is nervous, and the atmosphere does not dare to come out, watching the war horse after the previous few charges, keep sneezing, the eyes are full of brilliance, and the four hooves keep rubbing the ground, indicating that it has run away, and it is the peak of physical strength at this moment, full of energy!

Niu Tong rode on the horse, looked at the wooden stake in the distance, or the second one, took a deep breath, clamped his legs between his hips and put the war horse under his hip, and shouted: "Drive!"

The horse's hooves shook, raising dust and smoke all the way, the cold light flashed in the lamplight, and the Xuandao in Niu Tong's hand slashed heavily on the wooden stake at a swift and unparalleled speed, and then both people and horses paused, as if to take out the handle of the knife when it came out, Niu Tong's eyes glared, a loud shout, and his right hand suddenly grasped, and the wooden stake made a shocking crisp cracking sound, which was broken from the root, taken away by the Xuandao, and dragged to the ground!

Everyone was dumbfounded, this thigh-thick wooden stake was bought three feet deep, and it wasn't strong enough?

Niu Tong rode back on his horse, still holding the handle of the Xuandao knife that was inserted deep into the stake in one hand, and said to Xuanbao: "Your Majesty, I want to try again!"

Xuanbao nodded. This result was also not what he wanted, so he was not satisfied with it either.

Pulling out the Xuandao and looking at the teeth on it, Niu Tong turned his head and ordered everyone: "Bury the stake one foot deeper!

Soon a long cloth belt was handed over to Niu Tong's hand, Niu Tong clenched the handle of the knife with his right hand, and then held the cloth belt in his left hand, and tightly wrapped the handle with his right hand, so that no matter how strong he was, he could not tear the knife off his right hand!

The last stake had been buried, and Niu Tong had also been prepared, so he rode his war horse again and nodded at Xuanbao. Xuanbao waved his hand, Niu Tong clamped his legs, and rushed towards the stake!

Everyone's eyes widened, watching Niu Tong approach the stake step by step, and then suddenly raised his hand, accompanied by a soft sound of "snort" in his ears, the thick wooden stake with the ripe cowhide was cut in half with a knife!

It wasn't until Niu Tong turned around and ran back that everyone reacted and shouted loudly! Someone picked up the cut down stake and hugged it to Xuanbao's side.

Xuan Bao looked at the fracture on it, and it didn't seem to be very neat, especially the cooked cowhide, which was torn out of a lot of filamentous fibers. The section of the stake is a bit grinding, and you can see the unevenness on it if you look closely, which is completely different from the smooth section that is cut with a knife!

This is the result that Xuanbao wants to see, waiting for Niu Tong to get off the horse, and walking over while untying the cloth belt, Xuanbao smiled and asked him: "Tell me what kind of experience the three transformed saw knives have!"

Niu Tong handed the cloth belt in his hand to the person beside him, walked up to Xuanbao with a Xuandao and said: "The first knife has too many teeth, so it will be very brittle and not suitable for combat! I don't think it's a good idea to replace the blade with tooth teeth, instead of the back of the knife, it can also increase the sturdiness of the knife itself, and arrange no more or less teeth, which can also enhance the lethality!

Niu Tong's action Xuanbao saw it clearly just now, the instantaneous explosive power when cutting the wood was really terrifying, it is estimated that except for the horse soldiers, there are not many people in the army who can really do it!

Just thinking that the cutting power of the sawtooth is strong enough, but I didn't expect the consumption of physical strength, originally Xuanbao also thought about using the saw knife to deal with the corpse soldiers, but now it seems that this plan will fail if it is not good!

Looking at Xuanbao's disappointed face, Niu Tong seemed to understand the purpose of this kind of saw knife he wanted, and looked at Xuanbao cautiously and asked, "Your Majesty, the neck of that corpse soldier is really stronger than this wooden stake wrapped in cooked cowhide?"

Xuan Bao smiled bitterly and said: "Even if it is not comparable, it is not far behind! Besides, I can't underestimate them, I must pay enough attention to them in order to make our brothers have a greater grasp!"

Niu Tong nodded, took out the blade of the sawgrass from his arms, looked at it carefully for a while, and muttered: "There is no need to pursue this sawtooth effect!"

"What?" Xuanbao didn't understand. Niu Tong turned his head and said to him: "Your Majesty, I need a time enchantment, and I will immediately make you a weapon that is more suitable for dealing with corpse soldiers than this!"

In the face of this weapon supervisor, who is already qualified enough to be a master level forging master, where does Xuan Bao have the qualifications to question and talk, immediately as he said, set up a time barrier near the forging furnace, and there are only ten people inside.

Xuanbao sat patiently outside and drank tea, and after drinking a cup of tea, Xuanbao walked into the forge field, removed the enchantment, and Niu Tong was already holding a four-foot-long weapon in his right hand and waiting outside.

"This is the weapon you said is more suitable for dealing with corpse soldiers?" Xuan Bao looked at the thing in Niu Tong's hand curiously, with a look of distrust on his face.

This thing is like a knife, but the tip of the knife is not bent to the back, but to the inside, and the arc is very large, and the inner edge is sharp, in fact, it is more like a sickle, but not only the curved inner edge of the blade, but even the side is polished very sharp!

Niu Tong nodded and said, "I call it the Xuan Hook!" Knowing that the emperor was doubting the power of this weapon, Niu Tong didn't say much, and directly turned over his horse and rushed to the first stake!

Xuan Bao looked at him with a wave of his right hand, and the weapon was cut on the wooden stake, and with the momentum of the war horse, the edge of the bend hooked the wooden stake, and with a slight touch, the stake was easily cut off!
