Those years when I led the Fox Clan

Chapter 150 The Council of Elders

The meeting hall was extremely noisy, and the arguing elders almost turned the ceiling of the hall over.And the topic of their discussion was naturally the appearance of iron artifacts this time.The shiny black metal ingots were piled up in the middle of the hall, and a few scattered iron ingots were being passed around among the elders.

After Queen Melissa walked into the hall with the Duge, the hall became quiet.

After taking her seat, Queen Melissa looked solemn and serious, with full queen pressure, glanced at the elders below, and said slowly:
"I think everyone understands the purpose of holding the elders meeting this time."

Speaking of this, Melissa raised her head to the iron ingot in the hall.

"Duge's laboratory has made great contributions again this time and successfully developed how to make iron. I believe everyone has seen it. These are genuine iron. The main reason for calling everyone here this time is to inform everyone and discuss the next step. The plan to develop iron tools here, and arm my tribe as soon as possible."

Speaking of this, Queen Melissa motioned to the next person to inform Wei Ya at the door.

Wei Ya, who had been waiting for a long time, walked in with a few subordinates, carrying sacks of things.

"When Du Ge brought the iron ingots yesterday, I sent him to the military headquarters. The workers worked hard and made a weapon. Wei Ya, let everyone have a look."

After Wei Ya got the order, she opened the sack, and there were 7 or 8 iron daggers inside.

The dwarf blacksmith hired by Duge is quite skilled, and the daggers that were forged in a short period of time look very good.

Two fingers wide, half arm length, the thickest part of the blade is no more than 3mm.The blade is straight, with two blood grooves in the middle of the blade, and the blade glistens coldly after it is cut. Even compared with the weapons seized from humans, it is of a higher grade.

In addition to the excellent appearance, there is naturally the desired high quality.

Wei Ya's subordinates took out some things to test the sword, including some vegetables and fruits, wood of different thicknesses, and two hanging sheep corpses, one of which was covered with a layer of leather to simulate leather armor protection.

Then Wei Ya waved the short sword and began to test the sword.

Fruits and vegetables can be easily cut into two sections, and the cut is smooth.Those woods of different thicknesses can also cut off two thick wood bars.After cleaving those things with ease, the blade was intact.

Then Wei Ya picked up the original bronze dagger, and started experimenting in the same way.The result is unsatisfactory. Some thick vegetables and fruits will get stuck on the blade, making it impossible to cut in two sections, and the cut surface is not smooth.When chopping wooden sticks, the effect was even worse. When the short sword was cut on two thick wooden sticks, it only cut halfway through, and then the bronze short sword was stuck.When I pulled it out, there was a gap in the blade.

Without comparison, there is no harm.Under the obvious contrast between the two weapons, all the elders exclaimed, marveling at the high quality of the iron.

It's not over yet, it's the end, Wei Ya looked at the hanging sheep carcass.

This is the effect of simulating the blade cutting on the flesh.

This time, the bronze dagger that Wei Ya used first cut out with one sword, leaving a 2-3cm deep gash on the unarmored sheep carcass.Then Wei Ya swung her sword and slashed at the leather-protected sheep carcass, but this time she only cut open the leather, leaving a faint blood mark on the sheep carcass.

Putting down the bronze dagger, Wei Ya picked up the iron dagger made by the dwarf.

When the dagger was swung, with the same angle and force, the wound left on the sheep carcass without leather protection was 5 or 6 cm deep.As for the sheep carcass protected by leather, the iron dagger not only broke through the leather, but also left a 3cm deep gash.

Under the obvious contrast between the two, almost the whole process boiled up.

Wei Ya calmly and calmly tried many times and various attack methods.The results indicated that the destructive power of the two daggers made of different materials was not at the same level.Moreover, iron products have higher toughness and are not easy to damage.

The whole process was boiling, and the elders were so excited that some of them couldn't help but go down, and personally picked up the dagger and swung it to try the difference between the two.

Queen Melissa was sitting on the highest throne, smiling and looking down, without any sign of stopping her.

"Ares, the god of war! This iron weapon is terrible!" "Yes, yes! Such thick leather is completely unstoppable! If it is cut on the enemy, it will be fine!" "If the army is equipped with this kind of weapon Weapons, that combat power..."...

The elders were chattering, and Du Ge sat on his bed and fell asleep.

After the crowd was excited for a while, they were quieted down under Queen Melissa's order.

Queen Melissa stood up and said loudly with a smile on her face:
"If we use these irons to arm our army, then imagine how much our army's combat effectiveness has been improved? The protection of the enemy's leather armor is simply vulnerable. This is the continuation of the last salt production, and Duge made another great achievement. In addition to planting, pottery factories, fishing grounds, etc., as the tribal queen, I don't know how to reward him. Now, please say a few words to our biggest hero."

In the quiet hall, everyone's eyes were on Duge.And Duge...

Lie down on the table, drooling all over the table, sleeping soundly.

The scene suddenly fell into inexplicable embarrassment.Queen Melissa's mouth twitched, and she looked at the servant next to her.After understanding, the servant hurried forward, gently pushed Du Ge, trying to wake him up.

But after such a push, Du Ge moved, and began to speak vaguely in his sleep.

"...Woo... No, Queen Melissa, your posture is wrong. The buttocks should be raised a little higher, a little higher, yes~ hold your waist with your hands, yes~ straighten your legs, and open them to the maximum."

boom!
There was a huge sound, but Wei Ya couldn't bear it anymore, she stepped forward and slapped Duge's palm hard on the table.Du Ge, who was having a strange dream, was suddenly woken up by fright.Pu Leng sat up at once.

"Ahhh? What's wrong!? Did the stove blow up?"

"Blow up your ball!"

Wei Ya couldn't help swearing, and hurriedly gestured to Duge with her eyes.Only then did Duge notice that everyone in the hall was looking at him.

"What... what's wrong?"

After Melissa coughed twice, she said seriously, "Du Ge, now tell me your speech."

"Oh oh oh... well, I... don't have any comments..."

Du Ge scratched his head and thought for a long time, but in the end he still didn't know what to say.After he said this, everyone in the hall stared at him, but no one made a sound.

"Well... let's talk about how to promote iron products. Although I have developed how to make iron now, the materials needed for iron making are a big problem. Mining requires manpower, and our fox clan is in short supply now, and The fox clan is weak, and the mining efficiency is extremely low. When recruiting foreigners, I feel that this matter is easy to leak and attract oppression from the big clan. Especially the lion clan."

When Du Ge said the word Lion Clan, he narrowed his eyes.

In front of him, the situation of everyone in the system hall was not listed. He carefully monitored the physical characteristics such as heartbeat and pupils. After finding a few unusual people, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The discovery of iron smelting methods was an epoch-making event.

Especially now, the entire Orc Alliance doesn't have a method for iron refining, and Du Ge directly took out the technology like this, which actually took a big risk.

The Fox Clan is not a big clan, and the Silver Blood Clan is only a medium-sized tribe.

In today's situation where lions and tigers are fighting for hegemony, it is easy to become the fuse of large-scale conflicts.Because once one party gets the ironmaking technology, the current balance will be broken.

Silver Blood is not united internally, so it publicly announced the appearance of iron tools at the elders meeting.There will always be some powerful people who will leak news secretly.But now, Duge uses the data detected by the system to calculate those who are most likely to leak information to the Lion Clan, that is, the possible 'lion-friendly' little mice.

A big tree must have dead branches, what Duge has to do is to find them and break them off.
