Making a bed crossbow requires good enough steel wire to make a bow string for the bed crossbow. Iron wire cannot withstand the huge tensile force, and the flexibility of the iron wire cannot be used to make a bow string. Speaking of steel, Lin Mu thought of those who made the bow string. The high elves working on their own don't know if these guys have really succeeded in refining steel.

Arriving at the goblin factory, Lin Mu didn’t waste any time and directly found the high elves who were still refining steel. These guys had really made iron into steel. This made Lin Mu very happy. After seeing the high elves, After learning about the steel-making methods, Lin Mu also understood the steel-making techniques of these high elves.

These high elves built a not very large crucible boiler, put the iron embryos refined by the goblins into the crucible for melting, and stirred and purified the melted molten iron again. This step is actually through dissolution again. After removing the impurities from the iron, these high elves will put a large pot lid on the crucible, seal it with mud, and use an air extraction device made of iron sheets and animal skins to deoxygenate the molten iron and remove the iron. This is the key to transforming pig iron into steel. The method of transforming pig iron into steel in modern technology is divided into three steps: four stripping, two removing, and two adjusting.

First, the carbon component, scale component, and sulfur component in the iron are removed by heating and stirring, and then the molten iron is deoxidized by extracting the air in the crucible, which can also reduce the pores in the pig iron. It only needs to be continued to be calcined at a controlled temperature for a period of time, and the iron will become harder steel.

Seeing that the high elves were busy, Lin Mu decided to make their future work easier, so he called a group of goblins to help them. Lin Mu also ordered the goblins to build more such crucibles as soon as possible, so that the people of his tribe could use them. All the iron turned into steel, and after giving instructions to Lin Mu, he asked the high elves to forge steel wires for him. The steel wires were not the kind that come in one piece, but were woven from many thinner steel wires.

Lin Mu originally wanted to give this job to the dwarves, but he thought that when it comes to the dexterity of that race, the dwarves are really not as good as the high elves, so Lin Mu gave the task of making wires to the high elves, and the rest It is time to make the crossbow body of the Dragon Hunting Crossbow. The forest curtain of the dragon hunting crossbow body is still made of fir. The toughness and hardness of fir are very suitable. In fact, the method of making a bed crossbow is similar to that of making a bow crossbow. It’s just that the bed crossbow is larger.

Let the goblins in the lumberyard prepare for themselves the materials for making the crossbow bed, two whole spun fir logs, and some wooden boards for making the base. After these preparations were completed, it was already dark, and Lin Mu had no choice but to do it tomorrow. Continue again.

After the blast furnace of the Linmu Tribe was built, many forces noticed the black smoke that was constantly coming out of the valley. At first, some forces thought it was a fire and did not pay attention. However, when the black smoke burned day and night, After nearly a month, it finally attracted the attention of all parties.

First came the high elves. They had a small colonial port on the coast of Nagash. Since they wanted to trade some goods with the human empire, the black smoke from the Lin Mu tribe first attracted their attention. Fortunately, Lin Mu's The valley was not very close to the trade routes of these high elves, and there was no major damage to the high elves' trade routes, so they did not take care of them.

In addition, there are not many people in this high elf port itself. If they are really human bandits or beastmen, they can't afford to offend them.

Then there are the humans who are located in the Black Fire Pass. The soldiers of the empire will not venture out of the Black Fire Pass. However, this does not prevent the defenders of the Black Fire Pass from hiring some mercenaries to visit the tribe in Linmu. You must know that if it is really If something is detected, it is a merit. If it is managed well, the lord may even send a reward.

But mercenaries are not idiots. It is normal for bandits and beastmen to appear outside Blackfire Pass from time to time. If these things are really investigated by themselves, they may not be able to come back alive, so these mercenaries are at Blackfire Pass. After walking around for a while, he went back and reported to his employer that there was a magma geothermal eruption near the Linmu tribe, and black smoke was rising from the ground.

And this kind of lie will definitely not be hidden from the defenders of Black Fire Pass. The general of the defenders, Viscount Bernic Will, cannot angrily accuse these despicable mercenaries of lying, but now the conflicts among the princes within the empire have begun to continue. With the intensification of the situation, many soldiers from the Blackfire Pass were also mobilized. The helpless Bernic Will could only give up, but these mercenaries who defrauded themselves of gold coins would die on the streets tonight.

Lin Mu's Iron Head Tribe is in the eyes of several forces, but they have no time to take care of it due to various problems from all parties.

After a night of talking about biology with Dark Elf Malina Delin, Lin Mu got up early today. Looking at the Dark Elf still lying on the bed, Lin Mu couldn't help but feel refreshed: "Even if I talk nonsense, I'm still so powerful."

Lin Mu put on his clothes and rushed directly to the lumberyard. Today he was going to make a bed crossbow. When he arrived at the lumberyard, some goblins were already waiting for Lin Mu with hammers and chisels.

Lin Mu first took the goblins to make a crossbow arm, and used saws and chisels to carve several wooden boards into the shape of shoulder poles. He then polished them smooth with a planer, and cut out the positions for binding steel wires on both sides of the shoulder poles. Use a coal pen to mark the middle of the shoulder pole, and then make the crossbow body. Use a chisel to cut out a wooden groove in the middle of the thick wooden board into which the crossbow arm can be placed. It is necessary to install two angle plates for pulling the bow string, and then a simple trigger receiving and transmitting structure for launching. Then make the base. First build a wooden platform with wooden boards, and then carve a few round wooden beads from fir. Using the principle of bearings to combine the crossbow body and the base, a bed crossbow can be freely rotated. As for the up and down adjustment of the bed crossbow, Lin Mu uses the principle of a desktop fan to swing up and down. Just loosen the screws at the connection. Adjust the bed crossbow up and down.

Then there is the stringing, bed crossbow, and the production of crossbow strings can be said to be quite troublesome. The high elves have to draw, polish, and weave one by one. It takes nearly three days to make a bow string. During this time, the goblins They were not idle, and successfully learned how to pull steel wires and weave steel wire ropes from the hands of the high elves. The goblins in the lumber factory also successfully produced more than a dozen qualified crossbows and tied the crossbow strings to the crossbow beds. Turning the stringing gear, the bed crossbow was fully wound. Putting a goblin spear on it, Lin Mu personally pulled the firing trigger.

The sharp spear flew directly out and was nailed to the wall of the lumber camp.
