Since the bronze sword with the totem pattern of the Mang Tribe can cut stones, can the bronze crossbow machine with the totem pattern of the Mang Tribe perfectly carry the power of the totem warriors?

"Baicao, come with me."

Chen Bei grabbed the broken crossbow machine and greeted him. Baicao hurriedly followed, and the two walked directly to the casting workshop.

Due to the bronze sword, there were two more warrior guards outside the casting workshop, and idle people were not allowed to get close.

Baicao had never been here. She looked at the blue brick dome in front of her curiously, and could not guess what Chen Bei brought her here for.

After entering the casting workshop, what hit me was a smell of metal and a rolling heat wave.

The casting furnace with extremely high temperatures almost continuously emits heat. In such a hot summer, only the totem warriors of the Mang Tribe can withstand it.

Chen Bei found the firestone and showed him the broken trigger.

"As it is not broken, one of them is cast in bronze, and the totem pattern is engraved on it."

The crossbow machine after the split is divided into three parts: looking at the mountain, hanging knife, and hook heart.

Looking at these three parts separately, the style is actually very simple, and it is not difficult to cast in bronze.

Huoshi carefully observed and understood the functions of the three components of the crossbow machine. Without asking any more questions, he started to make clay molds.

He first used clay to connect the broken crossbow parts, then wrapped them up, pressed them tightly, and then used a bronze knife to clear the clay, thus directly obtaining the prototype of the mold.

Then, he began to repair these molds, and carefully carved the totem patterns of the Mang Tribe on the inner wall, and finally glued the clay molds with the totem patterns together.

Because Chenbei requires precision, this process took a lot of time. After finishing, he put these small molds into a sand table and filled sand between the molds so that the molds could stand up well.

“It’s time to start pouring.”

Because the casting workshop has been casting various weapons, the bronze liquid is ready-made and the ratio is currently the best.

Flint used two bronze hooks to lift a fire-resistant clay pot in the furnace. The clay pot was filled with hot bronze liquid, which was burned red.

"Shit..."

Flint poured the bronze liquid from the clay pot into the clay mold, and bursts of white smoke came out.

Use a stone knife to skim the excess bronze liquid and smooth the holes of the mold.

Baicao is not unfamiliar with this operation. She has seen tinware manufacturing, and it looks like this, but she still doesn't know the existence of bronze.

In order to keep it secret, there were very few people in the tribe who knew about bronze.

Of course, Baicao is a person who is specialized in weapon manufacturing, and Chen Bei could not hide it from her, so he brought her here this time.

In the future, it will be much more convenient to make other weapons or even large ships with bronze.

After the bronze liquid cooled down, Flint took out the clay mold from the sand tray, then took out a small hammer, and broke the mold in a few strokes.

"Chief, won't this be broken?" Baicao couldn't help asking.

In her impression, the tin utensils made from melt are relatively soft and easy to damage. The same thing that is made from the same method should be the same?

Chen Bei smiled and said, "Don't worry, this material is called bronze. After carving the totem pattern, it is tougher than the top-grade stone and cannot be damaged."

"real?"

Baicao's eyes widened. If this was the case, maybe the crossbow made of this material might be successful.

"You'll know if you keep reading."

After knocking out the bronze cast crossbow parts from the mold, Flint took them again and walked to the place where they were specially polished. He dripped some water and grinded them finely on the stone.

As the polishing progressed, the bronze crossbow gradually shone with golden brilliance, which was very beautiful, and the patterns of the Mang tribe on it were also very obvious.

"Chief, it's done, you can see if it can be used."

After polishing, the bronze crossbow machine has been reflected, just like an exquisite handicraft, making people unable to move their eyes away at a glance.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Chen Bei took the bronze crossbow, looked carefully, compared it with the original stone crossbow, and nodded with satisfaction.

Huoshi smiled embarrassedly and said, "Then I'll go and do it first."

For him, casting these gadgets was nothing, but he didn't know whether crossbow arrows could be successfully made. These gadgets were crucial things.

Chen Bei handed the bronze crossbow machine to Baicao and said, "Try it back, but the bronze matter should be kept confidential and don't let the people in the workshop leak out."

Baicao took the bronze crossbow and nodded solemnly while marveling at its beauty.

The weapons workshop is like a casting workshop, and the things inside are kept confidential. The craftsmen who can work there will naturally not be big mouths.

The two of them quickly returned to the weapons workshop. Baicao, with excitement, found the best crossbow and assembled the bronze crossbow machine.

The craftsmen in the weapons workshop also surrounded them. This new crossbow machine was very beautiful, but I didn’t know how effective it was.

"Chief, why don't you try it?"

Baicao has failed too many times. Although this time it seems very close to success, she is afraid of failure again.

The leader must have a much better luck than them. Maybe, can the leader succeed in one try?

"Okay, I'll give it a try."

As the leader, Chen Bei naturally had an in-depth understanding of the powerful killing weapon such as crossbow arrows. He easily pulled the string and hung it on his teeth next to Bronze Watch Mountain.

The bow on the crossbow arrow is tightly stretched and has accumulated strong power.

Then, Chenbei placed a stone arrow feather arrow on the arrow groove on the crossbow arm.

He walked out of the house, and Baicao and the craftsmen hurriedly followed.

Chenbei chose a big tree a hundred meters away, with eyes, looking at the mountains, trees, and aiming at them in three points and one line.

If the shooting distance is long, you need to adjust the angle of the crossbow arrow according to the scale on the mountain, but the distance of one hundred meters is not far, so there is almost no need to adjust it.

Chen Bei's finger was placed on the hanging knife of the crossbow arrow, which was equivalent to the trigger.

Everyone held their breath and stared at the crossbow nervously. Will it succeed this time?

"call out!"

Chen Bei pulled the hanging knife and leaned forward directly at the mountain. The bowstring was instantly straightened, and the feather arrow was instantly pushed out on the arrow groove of the crossbow arm, and the speed was very fast.

"Do!"

Chenbei accurately shot a big tree a hundred meters away. The stone arrows penetrated deep into the trunk, and the arrow shaft and tail feathers kept trembling.

"Success!"

Baicao screamed excitedly, and the craftsmen also cheered one after another. This time, the crossbow was not broken and was still intact.

Chen Bei also had a smile on his face, but he was more cautious and said, "Try it a few more times."

Baicao immediately went back to get a pot of feather arrows and handed them to Chenbei excitedly.

"You come."

Chen Bei handed the crossbow arrow to Baicao. In recent years, Baicao and these craftsmen have been hit hard by failure. It is time for them to regain some confidence.

"Okay...I...I'll give it a try."

Baicao nervously circulated the totem power, pulled the string, then put the feather arrow on it, aimed carefully like Chen Bei just now, and then fired it.

"Do!"

Although Baicao was nervous, she still prepared to hit the big tree, and she was so happy that she was about to jump up.

Then, other craftsmen also tried to shoot. During this process, the crossbow arrows were always stable and the crossbow machine did not break. They knew that the crossbow arrows were really made successfully!

"Wuwuwuwu... it's done, it's really done..."

The last craftsman hugged the hard-won crossbow arrow and knelt on the ground and cried.

No one laughed at him. They put in too much effort and experienced too much failure in order to develop crossbow arrows. It is normal for them to cry with joy.

Chen Bei helped the craftsman up and said, "You have made great contributions to the creation of crossbow arrows. The tribe will not treat you badly."

Chen Bei thought for a while and said, "Each person is rewarded with six tin coins and ten kilograms of animal meat!"

No matter when, rewards are useful. When those craftsmen heard the reward, everyone became even more excited and wanted to yell at the sky.

Chen Bei looked at the bronze crossbow arrows and said in his heart: With these bronze weapons, he has more confidence in dealing with those large tribes.

Information from the central part was constantly coming, and the collision between the Jackal Tribe and the three major tribes was becoming more and more frequent, and the battle was approaching.

At that time, no matter who wins, it will have a great impact on the Mang tribe, and the living conditions during the glacier period are becoming increasingly harsh. Chenbei does not think that the Mang tribe can continue to develop steadily.

Once the war breaks out, everything you do now, including the improvement of Chenbei's own strength, will give the Mang tribe a certain advantage in the war.

...

The middle part, the jackal tribe.

"Come on, grab him!"

More than a dozen jackal tribe warriors were holding an old man with disheveled hair and a few big animal skin bags, which were bulging and filled with a lot of things.

Xi still pretended to be a man from the Eagle Tribe and was dealing with the Jackal Tribe. After he stayed here for a while, the people of the Jackal Tribe nearby liked him very much because he was very generous in his actions and naturally he was less prepared for him.

Xi looked at the old man and asked a warrior from the jackal tribe next to him, "Is this the slave you caught?"

The warrior of the Jackal Tribe said, "It's also considered a slave, but it's more useful than an ordinary slave. I heard that it was a stone maker from a small tribe. After catching people, he has moved his tools here."

"The leader said that in the future, our jackal tribe will polish the stone tools themselves, first grab a few stone tools masters, and then let the people in the tribe learn slowly."

This matter is not a secret in the Jackal Tribe, and Xi is very popular here, so the warrior told the matter without hesitation.

"So that's the case. It seems that you will be able to use the stone tools you polished by yourself soon."

The warrior of the Jackal Tribe smiled and said, "Who made the stone tools of your carved tribe so expensive? We had to grind them ourselves."

Xi accompanied him to chat, and gave him some gadgets that were actually not valuable, which brought them closer together again.

When no one noticed, Xi's heart gradually sank, and the Jackal Tribe began to polish the stone tools themselves. This was definitely a major signal.
