[Chapter 226] Damascus Knife vs Gurkha Scimitar
Knife
(0226)
【Today's third update is delivered!】
Sumu Puri directly identified Sawanna's identity and thought it was also a manifestation of sincerity to please the other party. He also felt that this was a pressure on Xu Xingxia. After all, when it comes to a queen of a distant country, Xu Xingxia has to give her some face. As long as Xu Xingxia has a slight concession, his subsequent words will be endless.
Little did he know that Xu Xingxia had no awe of a queen. He had never seen anything from later generations? There was a queen in the UK, so what's so amazing? He was even a bit masculine and always felt that it was a bit unreliable for you to come out. Queen Sm is not bad... Well, I thought it wrong.
"His Queen, has she reported her identity?" Xu Xingxia said disdainfully.
This sentence really put Sumu Puri into the army. Sumu Puri wanted to say something, but it was hard to say. As a result, the words to his mouth were swallowed back, not to mention how uncomfortable it was. Xu Xingxia's words were too direct and did not consider the feelings of others at all. He had never met such an arrogant guy. He had no politeness and arrogance to talk to Xu Xingxia at all. It was so hateful. This is Sumu Puri's overall feeling for Xu Xingxia.
However, Xu Xingxia did talk about the key points. The most serious thing about Sawanna is that she cannot disclose her identity. She originally hid her identity and quietly arrived in Ningxia City. If she disclosed her identity, she could of course get the protection of the Ming Dynasty. The governor of Ningxia, the governor of the three sides, and the King of Qing will receive her personally to fully ensure her safety. Her follower Wutulu hit someone for no reason will probably be harmonious soon. However, in this way, undercurrents from all sides will be difficult to predict.
No matter what perspective, Sawanna's identity is very sensitive. If the Tatars learn that she has arrived in Ming, they will probably not be able to sit still. God knows what you are going to Ming? Are you going to Ming to get rid of the influence of our Tatars on Khorasan? Or, go to Ming to find a more suitable man for you? Similarly, the Ottoman Empire, Safi Empire, and even the Mughal Empire must think about what she is going to Ming? Is it possible that it is not good for her?
Not to mention anything else, as long as she reveals her identity, the number of assassins alone will double. The small Ningxia City is afraid that it will fall into the shadow of swords and swords in an instant. Morigen's enemies definitely don't want to see her marrying Morigen. The enemies of the Ottoman Empire definitely don't want to see the queen and priestess of Khorasan, in harmony. Even some national forces may have no interest in Sawanna, just for her beauty. By the way, it would be very good if she could be robbed back and become a copycat lady...
Sawanna asked Sumu Puri to come forward, but she didn't want to disclose her identity. It is estimated that even she would be angry at this time that Wutulu would be troubled. If it weren't for Wutulu's recklessness, her situation wouldn't be so embarrassing. If she had left the city smoothly at that time, there would be nothing. Of course, the culprit was Xu Xingxia, who was determined to let this go. Now, the injured Wutulu is still in Xu Xingxia's hands!
The person was arrested by Xu Xingxia. Without Xu Xingxia's consent, even Peng Feng and Zhang Qiuqing dared not let him go easily. Xu Xingxia was a lunatic at all, there was no need. They really didn't want to go against Xu Xingxia. They didn't know Sa Wanna's identity. For the sake of an unknown alien woman, she offended Xu Xingxia again, and she would definitely not be able to do this.
In fact, the three people present had already learned about Sawanna's true identity. As long as three people knew, thirty people would soon know and thirty people would know. This is human nature. If you want to keep it confidential, it is absolutely impossible. Xu Xingxia would definitely not keep it confidential, and there is no obligation. I guess Hu Yan Aobo would not, either. If King Qing asked, he would definitely tell the truth. The only thing that might be kept confidential is Sumu Puri. However, the other two are not kept confidential. What's the use of him keeping it confidential alone?
It is estimated that after this incident, Sawanna will return to China as soon as possible. Once her identity is revealed, she will continue to stay in Ningxia City, which will be quite unsafe. In Ningxia City, there must be spies from all parties. After they learn the news, they will definitely report it as soon as possible. From the time when all parties get the news to the time they take action, it is estimated that it will take two or three months. She must return to Khurasan as soon as possible during this period.
But it was thousands of miles away from Ningxia City to Khurashan. On such a long journey, she had to be careful to ensure that she would not be snatched away by the sudden horse thief and would be taken back to be a maid. Since she was hiding her identity, she could not have many protective forces with her. On such a long journey, she could be attacked at any time. To be serious, her situation is still quite dangerous, sheep enters the tiger's mouth!
Huyan Aobo said in the jam, "Guard Xu, His Highness, really wants to solve the problem sincerely. If necessary, she can give you the most sincere apology."
Sumu Puri hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes, Your Highness, you are willing to apologize to you for your subordinates' rudeness, and as long as you agree not to pursue this matter."
Xu Xingxia said coldly: "She should have apologized to Luo Dingyuan Baihu. He was hurt, not me. I don't need her apology either."
Sumu Puri smiled and said, "This is nature, this is nature. Your Highness the Queen can apologize to Luo Dingyuan Baihu or to Xu Guard. In order to show sincerity, Your Highness the Queen specially prepared a gift for Xu Baihu and asked Xu Baihu to accept it with a smile."
While speaking, he waved his hand, and the followers outside the hall immediately came in and placed a brocade box on the flower table next to it. Sumu Puri made a gesture, asking Xu Xingxia and Hu Yan Aobo to come over. He opened the brocade box and saw that it was a short sword inside the brocade box. The appearance of the scabbard is very simple, and it should be a while ago. The patterns on the scabbard are overlapping and intertwined, and it seems that it is not a matter of the Central Plains.
Sumu Puri held up the sword with both hands and said with a solemn expression: "Hushang Xu, this sword is said to have been used by an old man in the mountains in the past. It is extremely sharp and claims to kill people without blood. The so-called sword is given to the martyrs, and red pink is given to the beauty. His Highness, I hope this sword can play a better role in the hands of Hushang Xu."
While speaking, he gently pulled out the dagger. The temperature in the hall seemed to drop several degrees instantly, and everyone present could feel a clear chill. This bitter coldness was emitted from the dagger. The dagger was less than one foot long, with a blue surface and many delicate and beautiful patterns. The shape of the dagger is not the common Central Plains dagger, but has a certain arc. To be precise, it may be more suitable to call it a dagger.
Xu Xingxia estimated that this should be the legendary Damascus knife. It is said that this is obtained through repeated forging. This mysterious forged steel has a special name, called Uzi Steel, with very little output. The biggest feature of Uzi Steel is the surface pattern, which is extremely beautiful, giving people a dreamlike feeling. Its pattern and veins are as precise as silk, and like a ladder overlapping. Later generations have proven that the swords made by Uzi Steel have serrated teeth that are invisible to the naked eye on the edges, so they are particularly sharp.
In the Central Plains, some people have mastered this technology. In the Song and Yuan dynasties, it is said that the iron is wuzi. The iron knife is Damascus knife. However, compared with the steelmaking industry, the ironmaking industry is more expensive and technically difficult, and it was gradually eliminated. For the army of the Central Plains dynasty, it is often hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people. What is most needed is cheap and practical weapons that can be equipped in large quantities. Even the steelmaking industry cannot be fully equipped, let alone the higher-cost Uzi steel.
Sumu Puri picked up the dagger with one hand, turned the blade upward, then pulled a hair from his head, and then gently put it down above the blade. As a result, the hair fell down and silently cut it from the middle, and divided into two pieces and fell to the ground.
Then, he waved to another follower and took a common Mingjun waist knife from his hand. But he saw that he held the knife in his left hand, with the back of the knife facing up, the sword in his right hand, the blade down, and the sword was swinging hard. As a result, with a sneer, the back of the Mingjun waist knife was cut into a deep soybean cut, but the short sword was safe and sound. Sumu Puri followed with three consecutive swords and cut off the Mingjun waist knife.
"Good knife!" Hu Yan Aobo shouted slightly exaggeratedly.
Blowing hair and cutting iron like mud, many sharp swords can be done. The biggest feature of this short sword is that its slashing power is quite large. No matter how sharp the blade is, if it does not have enough power, it will definitely not be able to cut off the Ming army's waist knife. Even if it is a big product, it is at least made of pig iron. The back of the knife is quite thick and thicker than a finger. A small short sword can actually cut off the waist knife, which is really sharp.
However, such a miracle is a bit in Xu Xingxia's eyes. If you have seen the later Gurkha scimitar, commonly known as the dog-legged sword, you will not be surprised at the slashing power of the dagger. The curvature of the dog-legged sword has been solved by countless people and is most conducive to slashing. A small knife can directly cut off a bull's head. Compared with the dog-legged sword, the Damascus knife is indeed nothing.
