My Empire War Game

Chapter 431: Prison and blast furnace

The armor rate of the army in this era is very low, about 50%, of which the armor rate of the normal soldiers can reach up to 120%, and the armor rate of the auxiliary soldiers is mostly about 20%. Soldiers in this era need to prepare their own ordnance and then bring dry food to the battlefield. The auxiliary soldiers are usually farmers.

As for wars between two aristocratic territories, it is often that a knight leads a dozen knights to fight with an army composed of a group of peasants. Suren’s plan to form an army is not like this.

The regular army equipment of the Kingdom of Florence is leather armor and iron armor. Iron armor is only available at the squadron leader level. The main reason is that the production cost of iron armor is very high. There is no water conservancy forging machine in Zhenbei City, and no iron blast furnace or pig iron in the Kingdom of Florence. Production is limited. The price of a set of iron armor is not cheap.

Suren intends to build blast furnaces and hydraulic forging machines here to produce iron armor on a large scale. Just when Suren was planning to build the blast furnace, the prison in San Ferto was completed.

The prison was rebuilt with a castle. The exterior looks like iron and blood solemnly. All the windows are just not much bigger than a slap, and they are sealed with iron pillars with the thickness of fingers. On the high wall outside the prison, there is a sharp heel. The iron fences can be seen from the outside and you can feel that they are heavily guarded. The entire prison has about 80 rooms, which are sturdy and durable. After the prison is completed, Su Lun can't wait to come here. He plans to bring some officials here to receive some ideological education.

"This is the prison we built?" The craftsman standing not far away looked at the building that made people feel hairy and swallowed with difficulty.

"It looks good!" Su Lun said as he looked at the prison in front of him.

"Where are those officials? Are they here?"

"Your Majesty, people have been sent to inform, I believe they will come soon." A guard said respectfully.

About ten minutes later, a group of officials led by guards and went outside the prison.

"Your Majesty!" Although I was suddenly called out here with some doubts, these officials still did not show any dissatisfaction.

Su Lun nodded, and then came to these officials: "Many people are wondering why I called everyone here."

"What's so good about such a prison? We are not criminals."

"It is true that you are not criminals, but you are officials, and ordinary people's crimes may only affect him and a limited number of people, but you are different. As officials, one of your decisions will affect thousands of people, so I have high demands on officials."

"I brought you here just to show you what kind of punishment you will be punished if you act for favoritism, dereliction of duty, corruption, knowing and breaking the law, so as to warn you."

As soon as Su Lun’s voice fell, there was a commotion among the officials below. These officials were basically the officials before the city of San Ferto. According to the virtues of the nobles, the professional ethics of these people can be imagined, even if the entire army is wiped out. Su Lun was not surprised.

"Quiet!" Su Lun said solemnly when he saw the mess of people.

"Before I came to the city of San Ferto, I don’t need to investigate what you did. I was not the king at the time, so I was not in my control, but after that, the pickled things you did were immediately made up for me, if Take my words as deaf ears, then don't blame me for not reminding you!"

"Okay, now all of you join me in this prison and take a good look at what will happen if you do something wrong!"

After speaking, Su Lun took the reluctant officials of the jailer into this gloomy-looking prison.

As soon as I entered the prison, I felt a cold breath. The entire prison environment was very depressive and the light was dim. Just the corridors made people feel frightened, and the performance of the officials was even more unbearable.

It is a little different from the prison in Zhenbei City. There are a lot of torture instruments in the prison here, and these instruments seem to have been used. There are a lot of dark red things resembling blood on them. Several jailers next to them also deliberately detailed these torture instruments. He even took out a few pieces of pork for demonstration.

Seeing the whole piece of pork being tossed by various instruments of torture, the officials looked pale one by one, their hands and feet were weak, and they could not stand firmly.

Su Lun waved his hand, and the two jailers stepped forward to stand up the weak-legged officials. Who knew that as soon as they started their hands, these officials struggled and cried violently.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please forgive me... I know I was wrong... please forgive me!" An official thought that the jailers were going to torture him, his face changed drastically, and he cried frantically: "Don't come. ..do not come..."

"Your Majesty, I confess... I surrendered... I took other people's benefits and do things for them, Your Majesty is forgiving...!"

For a while, the whole prison was crying for mercy. Su Lun was also surprised by the scene before him. He didn't expect the effect of this prison to be so good. Only after seeing half of it, the officials in front of him took it. Can't help it.

Seeing these officials begging for mercy, Su Lun was still very proud. Since these people were willing to surrender, Su Lun had no reason to refuse, and directly hired personnel to record their crimes. Of course, before recording, all officials must walk through the entire prison. Of course, those officials who were frightened with weak legs were forced to walk through the jailers.

After undergoing such a baptism, these officials became very honest one by one, and explained all the illegal incidents clearly. For these people, the lesser crimes continue to be appointed. Of course, he needs to take the previous crimes. For all compensation, the illicit money for corruption and bribery was doubled back, and the violation of the regulations was corrected again. For those who have committed serious crimes, they will be dismissed from their posts after completing the recovery of stolen goods.

Seeing the effect of the prison so good, Su Lun was relieved, and then stipulated that all officials of San Firto City must come to the prison once every six months for ideological education. For this rule, the grassroots officials from Zhenbei City are already familiar with it. As for the officials from San Ferto City who have just visited the prison, they dare not have any objections, for fear of being thrown directly into the prison by Suren.

It was also from this day that the prison in San Ferto became a sharp sword hanging over the heads of all officials. And because of this, this prison has become a horrible place in San Ferto where children can stop crying.

With this prison, the efficiency of the official system in San Ferto has been doubled. Various prevarications have disappeared. The operation of the city hall has become very smooth. All the decrees issued by Sulun have been taken seriously. The implementation of it, instead of superficial as before.

For this change, Su Lun is still very satisfied. The most intuitive manifestation is that the tax has increased by one-half, and the public sentiment of San Ferto has increased from the previous sixty to seventy-five.

It is also from now on that Su Lun is truly in control of San Ferto City.

Another thing to be happy about is the blast furnace of the blacksmith workshop. After some construction, the blast furnace is finally completed.

Speaking of it, the technical level of the blast furnace designed by Sulun has only reached the level of the earth kiln in the 1960s of the previous life, when steelmaking was large. It is impossible to make steel, but it is still possible to make pig iron. .

The blast furnace of the blacksmith's workshop stands in the backyard. The blast furnace is made of refractory bricks. The overall shape of the blast furnace is cylindrical, but the fat and the two ends are slightly thinner. The blast furnace in front of you is six meters high, and it does not follow the drawings. The main reason for the construction of eight meters is that the technology is not skilled enough.

However, the six-meter-high blast furnace is not too small. This blast furnace is filled with ore and dyes and can produce thousands of catties of pig iron at one time. In order to make the blast furnace strong, Su Lun also specially blessed the blast furnace with hardening technology, and the fire bricks on the blast furnace were also blessed with flame resistance by Su Lun, which can reduce the burning of the blast furnace by the flame.

At the same time, on the inner wall of the blast furnace, Sulun drew a rune array that enhanced the flame temperature, which could increase the flame temperature and melt the ore faster. To put it bluntly, the entire blast furnace is already a magic item.

The one used to feed the blast furnace is a minecart ~www.wuxiahere.com~ which is directly transported by rails, which lead to the feed inlet of the blast furnace. The whole design uses a pulley block to reduce the strength. There is also a large wind box beside the blast furnace, which is specially used to ventilate the blast furnace and transport oxygen.

When delivering air, there is also a heating device to preheat the air once, so that it will not cause cold air to enter the blast furnace to reduce the temperature in the blast furnace. With this air preheating, the temperature of the blast furnace can be directly increased by two hundred degrees.

The surrounding walls of the entire blast furnace and the blacksmith shop are about the same height. In order to prevent the earthquake from collapsing, Su Lun also installed fixing parts around the blast furnace to make the blast furnace more stable. After the entire blast furnace has been built, it is of course necessary to try it out first, and the surrounding workers have long been a little impatient.

Upon Su Lun's order, workers immediately pushed the prepared iron material into the blast furnace, and then ignited the charcoal. The orange flame instantly rose, and the surrounding temperature began to rise rapidly.

Originally, the heating effect of charcoal can only reach eight or nine hundred degrees, but after using the blast furnace, the temperature will be further increased. In addition, Sulun also described the rune array and air preheating to enhance the flame temperature in the blast furnace, and finally the temperature in the blast furnace Directly broke through to one thousand six hundred Baidu.

Such a high temperature can completely melt iron ore.
