Chapter 0011: Casting God Soldier
Three days later, because the New Year was approaching, Li Pengfei took Guan Yu and Yue Fei, bid farewell to Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, and rushed to his hometown in Yuyang County. And Zhao Yun also said goodbye afterwards, and he also had to rush back to his hometown of Changshan Zhending, Jizhou.
Before leaving, Li Pengfei had already made an agreement with his two brothers that he would meet Li Pengfei at his home in Quanzhou, Yuyang, after the New Year, to prepare for the troubled times that were coming.
Quanzhou is not far from Zhuo County, that is, more than 100 kilometers. Li Pengfei and his entourage rushed back to Li's house in Quanzhou in only two days.
The Quanzhou mentioned here is not the Quanzhou of later generations, but the Quanzhou County of Yuyang County, which is located near Chengshang Village in the southwest of Yang Village, Jinmen City.
Back home, Li Pengfei first took Guan Yu and Yue Fei to meet his only relative in this world, his mother Xun.
Xun was very happy to see Guan Yu, and happily recognized this righteous son. Of course, she also welcomed Yue Fei, who came to join Li Pengfei.
Through Li Pengfei's actions in the past two or three years, Xun has already seen that his son is not a person who is willing to be mediocre. It is naturally a great thing to have such a heroic hero as Yue Fei to help him.
Speaking of which, the Xun family is also from a famous family, even more prominent than the Li family, that is, the famous Yingchuan Xun family. That is, the descendants of Xunzi. To be precise, Xun is the twelfth grandson of Xunzi. Her father was Xun Shu, the most famous scholar in the late Han Dynasty.
The Xun family is a wealthy family in Yingchuan, and the Li family is a famous family in Yingchuan Yangzhai. The relationship between these two is also very good, and they are considered world friends.
Li Ying's personality is lonely and unsociable, and he only regards Xun Shu and a few other people as mentors and friends. And Xun Shu's sixth son Xun Shuang respected Li Ying very much when he was young, once he went to visit Li Ying, so he drove for Li Ying, and said happily when he came back: "I actually drove for Li Jun today." ”
Similarly, Xun Shuang has a very good relationship with the younger generation of the Li family, especially with Li Ying's second son Li Jin, and even introduced his little sister to Li Jin. This Xun daughter is now Li Pengfei's mother.
Born in such a famous family, Xun has received a good education since she was a child, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and her personality is also gentle and virtuous, and she is definitely a model of a good woman. Li Pengfei has been in this era for three years and has felt deep maternal love from her. And his respect for this mother is not inferior to his biological mother in his previous life.
Because the New Year is approaching, the Li family is already busy preparing for the New Year. However, Li Pengfei was too lazy to care about this, he took Guan Yu and rushed into the Li family's blacksmith shop.
Don't underestimate the Li family's blacksmith shop, it also cost Li Pengfei a lot of effort.
Li Pengfei knows very well that if he wants to rise in this troubled era, he cannot do without the army. In order for an army to have strong combat effectiveness, it must not only have well-trained soldiers, strong financial and material support, but also sophisticated weapons. This is true both in the era of cold weapons today and in the era of hot weapons in later generations.
Therefore, in the past two or three years, Li Pengfei has been constantly collecting skilled blacksmiths in various places to prepare for the rise of troubled times.
These blacksmiths naturally can't let them eat idle food when they collect them, which is the biggest waste, so the weapons of the Li Jiazhuang Guard, as well as the various equipment needed by the Li family caravan, are all made by these craftsmen.
Now, Li Pengfei took Guan Yu and Yue Fei to the blacksmith shop, naturally in order to create a few divine weapons in his mind.
The Yellow Turban Rebellion is about to break out next year, and this is an opportunity for Li Pengfei to make meritorious contributions for a long time.
If you want to go to the battlefield, you can't go without a weapon at hand.
Just earlier, when the Li family chamber of commerce went to the grassland to do business with the Huns, he accidentally obtained a large piece of meteoric iron, which was an excellent material for making weapons.
The weight of this piece of meteorite is not small, and Li Pengfei estimates that it is more than one ton. The Li Family Chamber of Commerce took a lot of effort to get it back from the Xiongnu.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's famous Qinglong Yanyue Knife and Zhangbadian Steel Spear must be built, and he himself plans to build a spear, and even the model he has already chosen, which is the overlord gun in the hands of the famous Xiang Yu. As for Yue Fei, his weapons also need to be crafted. That is, Zhao Yun has a bright silver spear given to him by his master Tong Yuan, and there is no need to create other weapons to replace it.
In addition, Li Pengfei also plans to create several weapons that are easy to carry, mainly some short knives and swords, and they have also chosen their shapes.
As a result, in the next nearly ten days, dozens of skilled craftsmen of this era in the entire Li family's blacksmith shop were busy with the dozen or so weapons with special shapes proposed by Li Yunlong.
Finally, on the day before the Lunar New Year, all the dozen or so weapons designed by Li Pengfei were built. With the exception of four long weapons that were not all-metal, the rest were all made of meteorite.
The reason why the four long weapons are not all-metal is really because the meteorite does not know what special composition has been added, and it is much denser than ordinary steel, and Li Pengfei estimates that its density has reached 10 tons per cubic meter, that is, 10 grams per cubic centimeter.
In this way, it is to build a stick with a length of two meters and a diameter of five centimeters, and its weight is already as high as 40 kilograms, which is converted into the weight of the Han Dynasty, which is 160 catties.
This is only the rod, if you add the front head or knife body, the weight is more than 60 kilograms, that is, more than 240 catties in the Han Dynasty.
With such a heavy weapon, even with the strength of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, don't even think about wielding it.
However, the wood that Li Pengfei found as the handle of the knife and the barrel of the gun was not ordinary wood, but the legendary dragon-descending wood, which was made of flakes or filaments in the branches of this kind of wood, which was extremely tough, and was constantly folded and folded, like cow tendons, and was the best choice for making the handle of the knife and the barrel of the gun.
But even so, the weight of these four long weapons is very scary.
The blade of the Qinglong Yanyue Knife is two feet four inches long, that is, about 55 centimeters, and its weight reaches fifteen kilograms, that is, sixty catties in the Han Dynasty. With the handle of six feet and six inches, the length of the whole knife reached nine feet, and the weight was exactly eighty-two catties.
The spearhead of the eight-point steel spear is 2 feet 8 inches long, and the weight reaches 40 catties, plus the 8-foot long spear handle, the total length reaches 1 zhang and 8 inches, and the weight reaches 72 catties.
The length of the tip of the overlord gun specially built by Li Pengfei is also 2 feet 8 inches, but because there are a few additional parts on the gun head, the weight is much heavier than that of the spearhead of the 8-point steel spear, reaching 49 catties. Coupled with the eight-foot-long, thirty-two-pound dragon descending wooden handle, the total length is also one zhang and eight inches, and the weight is eighty-one pounds.
Yue Fei's Liquan gun was also not inferior, the tip of the spear was two feet eight inches long, the weight reached forty-eight catties, and the eight-foot-long spear handle reached one zhang and eight inches, and the weight reached seventy-eight catties.
In addition, a total of two short knives, two swords, and four fighting daggers were created.
When Li Pengfei handed the formed Qinglong Yanyue Knife to Guan Yu, the eyes of this product straightened on the spot. In the past few days, although he has personally participated in the creation of these weapons, and he roughly knows the size of these weapons, after all, he has not seen the real objects, and it is difficult to imagine the real appearance of these weapons. Now that I see such a domineering Qinglong Glaive Knife, where can I remain calm?
Even praised "good knife" a few times, this thing didn't care about Li Pengfei, took the knife and ran to the Li family's martial arts arena, and played with the knife.
Because this knife has not been opened yet, it looks dark, and now that it is dancing, everyone can only see a black light flying on the martial arts arena.
Seeing Guan Yu dancing there alone, Yue Fei was also interested, picked up his Liquan gun, and came to the field, ping pong and Guan Yu to practice.
The relationship between people is really very strange, Zhang Fei and Yue Fei, as soon as the two meet, they are on the tip of the needle, and no one is convinced. But Guan Yu, who has an arrogant temperament, has a very good relationship with Yue Fei.
Looking at the two people fighting fiercely in the field, Li Pengfei showed a satisfied smile on his face. For the upcoming Yellow Turban Rebellion, he is really looking forward to it.
