Half a year later, the number of apprentices under Chu Tian's sect increased to 12,000.
A year later, the number of apprentices had soared to 58,000.
Three years later, in a heavily guarded valley outside Baigu City, a large-scale blacksmith factory burst into flames. In addition to the two hundred thousand young apprentices, there are thousands of blacksmiths who are master craftsmen themselves studying and forging under the Chutian Sect.
Five years later, the blacksmith factory doubled in size again and was able to forge 120 specially-made crossbows and 24,000 sets of iron pagoda heavy armor and kidnapping vests every month.
Chutian taught the assembly line operation method, plus some more advanced techniques, such as hydraulic-driven heavy hammer forging, relatively advanced alloy formulas, and advanced mold one-time molding.
In addition to heavy weapons such as bed crossbows, iron pagodas, and kidnapping horses, this blacksmith factory produces sophisticated weapons every month, such as swords, guns, swords and halberds, strong bows and crossbows, as well as crossbow bolts, arrows, iron caltrops, iron horses, etc. There are hundreds of thousands of objects.
The territory of the Da Cang Dynasty stretches for hundreds of millions of miles. With such a vast territory, the Da Cang Dynasty cannot effectively rule it. Therefore, the Da Cang Dynasty adopted a "feudal" system. Except for a large piece of rich territory under the direct jurisdiction of the dynasty, the rest of the country was divided into thirty-six vassal states.
Because of his mother's favor, Yuntian was canonized as king when he was only a teenager. He was given a land that was 950,000 miles long from east to west and 680,000 miles wide from north to south. He ruled over trillions of people. count.
In such a vast territory, the fastest cavalry under Yuntian's command, the "Clouded Leopard Cavalry", could only run more than 10,000 miles in a day and night at the speed of running at full speed without armor. To go from the easternmost edge of Yuntian's territory to the westernmost edge, it would take the Clouded Leopard Rider to run around for more than three months without rest; from the southernmost edge to the northernmost edge of his territory, it would also take more than two months of running wildly.
Standing in front of a ten-foot-tall iron furnace, Chu Tian held a large cigarette in his mouth and puffed out mist while murmuring to himself: "So, the territory is too big. If you don't have enough cultivation, you won't be able to fight." It’s really good enough.”
Yuntian's own cultivation has reached the Destiny Realm and he can fly in the air. However, except for Yuntian, only a dozen of his generals have reached the Destiny Realm. As for the monks who live in Anhui, they cannot fly and can only travel on two or four legs.
Whether it is dispatching troops or generals, or conveying military orders and military information, it all takes a long time.
Chu Tian could not imagine how exciting this battle would be when Yuntian raised his arms and raised the flag to rebel! The real battle probably won't take much time, and the main time consumption will be spent on the road.
"So there is actually a family camp accompanying the army in the army establishment of Heaven!" Lord Shu huddled in Chu Tian's sleeves and poked his head out, saying furtively: "This is preparation. We have been trekking on the road for thirty or fifty years. The litters are littered with litters, and when they arrive at the destination and are ready to start the war, will these litters be able to wear armor and join the battle?"
Chu Tian was made to laugh out loud by the scene imagined by Mr. Shu. He accidentally inhaled a puff of thick smoke into his lungs and suddenly choked and coughed repeatedly.
This cigarette was made from wild tobacco that Chutian found in the forests of Da Cang Mountain and dried by himself.
Because of Chu Tian's preference, this cigarette was imitated by many master blacksmiths, and gradually became a trend - just around Chu Tian's several large smelting furnaces, you can see hundreds of shirtless people at a glance The blacksmith master was puffing away smoke, looking really carefree and happy.
Throwing the cigarette butt into the furnace of the iron furnace, Chu Tian straightened up, looked at the hot molten iron spurting out of the slowly tilting furnace, and murmured: "Master Shu, in this battle, you and I We can’t stop them. When I sensed them flying overhead that day, I knew we couldn’t stop them.”
"Scared, is this their way of harvesting souls? Starting a war in the world and using war to harvest lives and souls?"
Chu Tian shook his head and whispered to himself: "War in the cold weapon age, if it lasts too long, I'm afraid too many people will die. So, let me speed up this war, maybe, How many fewer people can die?"
Master Shu didn't say anything. After a while, he murmured: "This is somewhat reasonable, but also a little... hypocritical!"
Chu Tian laughed a few times, raised his head, looked at the white clouds sliding smoothly across the sky, and whispered: "It's a bit hypocritical. In fact, I want to become a god in heaven. I want to see this heaven." What on earth is it?”
Licking his lips, Chu Tian said softly: "Only by joining the Heavenly Court and obtaining a certain position in it can I get the information I need! It's not like that. I'll just run around and find a Heavenly General who will sap and torture him. Right? They blow themselves up at every turn, and they can't get the information I want at all."
Lord Shu shivered and whispered to himself: "Brother Tian, don't be impulsive. It feels uncomfortable to be chased by those mad dogs all over the sky!"
The hairs all over Mr. Shu's body stood up one by one, and he said sincerely: "It's too uncomfortable to be chased by those winged bird-men and mad dogs all over the sky. So, it's better to sneak into the heaven." This boy from Yuntian, I think he’s pretty good, and he’s had a few friendships in the past few years, so let’s just give him a hand!”
Whether it's true or false, Yuntian has been particularly affectionate and close to Chutian in the past few years. Every three or five days, he will either reward him with some rare treasures, some fine wine and food, or some beautiful maids.
In this valley, in Chutian's mansion, there are four to five hundred young girls with picturesque features.
"Well, Master Shu, what you are saying is that although some treasures are difficult to bear, such as those maids... But this favor belongs to him."
Walking to the forging workshop nearby, under a shed composed of a huge steel bracket structure, ferocious and powerful steel crossbows were being assembled by Chutian's disciples on the production line.
Basically, in five breaths, a steel crossbow will be assembled at the end of the production line and delivered to the quality inspection apprentice.
These apprentices skillfully unstrung the crossbow, buckled the crossbow arrows, and fired at the row of arrow targets at the end of the workshop. Sparks flew from the iron plate target, and each crossbow arrow They all fell deeply into the target.
In the past few years, the first group of apprentices who followed Chu Tian have become quite good at practicing the Nine-turn Heavenly Furnace Technique. Many of them can wield hundreds of thousands of kilograms of power with a wave of their arms. This level of cultivation, in the Da Cang Dynasty, was only achieved by the first-class elites of the Forbidden Army.
There are even some elite disciples who have been specially trained by Chu Tian. Their arms have a million pounds of strength, which is already comparable to the strength of the backbone generals under Yuntian's command.
The strength of Chutian and Yuntian is increasing little by little.
Every set of weapons and armor that leaked out from Chutian made Yuntian's strength stronger.
Unconsciously, time flew away so quickly.
