Chapter 886： Defects of high carbon steel knife

In fact, it is not impossible to spread Hinduism in Japan. Historically, Hinduism has prospered for some time in Southeast Asia.

In Indonesia, there have been several realms of Hinduism in history. Even in the 21st century, Bali, a famous tourist destination in Indonesia, was a Hindu region. However, after the God invasion of Indonesia, the more aggressive God regime completely replaced the Hindu regime in Indonesia. This also led to Indonesia becoming the world's number one God religion country, leaving only Bali to retain Hindu beliefs.

This is enough to show that Hinduism can also be spread in other parts of the world, not only in India. As for the God religion, it seems to be more popular among nomads. But in a farming society, spreading is a bit difficult. Unless, as in ancient Southeast Asia, there are no powerful countries that can force them to spread.

Why is this? Here I have to mention that God teaches two self-restraint canons-one prohibits drinking and the other prohibits eating pork ...

If it were not forbidden to drink alcohol, maybe Mao Zi converted to God's teaching that year. It ’s not allowed to eat pork ... Anyway, Chinese and Germans are definitely not acceptable ...

In farming society, raising pigs is an important source of meat. Because, in the farming society, the land has been reclaimed into farmland, lacking grassland, and unable to release sheep, and the important production materials of the bull market ... Therefore, the main source of meat in the farming society is pork ...

You do n’t allow people to eat pork, you just do n’t let people eat meat ... In this way, people in the farming society are willing to believe in God ’s religion ... unless, they are conquered-for example, Indonesia, is the fierce God ’s religion The regime conquers violence ...

But it also brought a huge social problem to Indonesia-Indonesia is obviously a farming country, but it believes in the God religion that does not allow pork. The result is that Indonesia has a serious shortage of meat and has to import large amounts of cattle and sheep from Australia every year to supplement the meat supply. Otherwise, Indonesians cannot eat meat ...

In fact, Indonesia is a very suitable country for raising pigs. Java's rice production is large, and naturally it can provide enough feed for pigs such as bran. If you are raising pigs, you can easily solve the problem of national meat supply.

However, Indonesia is an God religion country. It is forbidden to eat pork and naturally does not raise pigs. Then, only cattle and sheep can be imported from Australia to obtain beef and mutton.

Because meat relies on imports, Indonesian meat prices remain high, and the people naturally cannot afford it. According to a report seen by Marin in his last life-Indonesia's per capita meat consumption in 2016 was only 12.9 kg. In the same period, Huaxia had 59 kg. Even North Korea, which has a difficult food supply, has 13.9 kilograms, which is one kilogram more than Indonesia ... Only the bottom of A3, the per capita meat consumption level of 4.1 kilograms, can make Indonesia find some confidence ... And 120 kilograms in the United States, even less Fabi ...

In fact, Indonesia is not poor, with a per capita GDP of US $ 3570, several times higher than North Korea ’s US $ 665. But it is because the canon does not allow pork to be eaten, which makes it difficult for people to eat meat and relies heavily on imports.

Therefore, if the cause of violent conquest is ruled out, God religion can only be spread among nomads. In a farming society, it is easy to resist. For example, in Eastern Europe, Greece has been occupied by Turkey for hundreds of years, and it has not been converted to God, just because the two canons of God hindered the spread of religion. Greece is an ancient civilization and a farming society. You do n’t want to drink alcohol and do n’t eat pork, is n’t it a toss? Therefore, Turkey has occupied the Balkan Peninsula for hundreds of years, and only the Bosnian Mu ethnicity is God. In other areas, Leng is not greened.

...

Hinduism is not the same. Hinduism does not have these uncomfortable rules, only the prohibition of eating beef is a bit uncomfortable.

If you put it in Europe, Hinduism is definitely difficult to spread. Because Europeans like to eat beef. But in Japan, there is absolutely no such problem. Because, like China, Japan prohibits killing cattle. Even the Japanese eat beef, which is the precedent of Prime Minister Ito Hirofumi at the end of the 19th century. Then, Kobe beef was also found ...

Therefore, there is no problem in spreading Hinduism in Japan. Moreover, it can spread from top to bottom, fully safeguarding the interests of the ruling class.

Generally speaking, Hinduism is spread from top to bottom. Buddhism, on the other hand, is bottom-up. Because Hinduism safeguards the interests of the ruling class, and Buddhism is in line with the needs of the lower classes (in fact, it is also fooling) Therefore, in China, it is also the upper channel, and civilians believe in Buddha. After all, Hinduism is not in the interest of the lower classes and it is naturally difficult to promote it among the people. And Hinduism is very in line with the interests of the upper rulers, and naturally needs to spread from top to bottom ...

...

Marin wrote down all these ideas, and after writing for a long time, he was a little dizzy. So, he came to the martial arts court in the palace to watch Kahn's animal practice martial arts.

When it's usually fine, Kahn usually wanders around the palace. If you are fine, go to the martial arts field to practice martial arts, beating sandbags and stakes. Either lift the 200-pound big rock and fly it up ... and once Marin is going out of the palace, Kahn will follow him to protect Marin's safety ...

Today, when Marin came to Yanwuchang to relax and watch, he just saw Kahn and a bodyguard compare the swordsmanship.

The palace performance martial arts are very small and can not rush. Therefore, the two ride on horses, move forward at low speed, and then use a saber to cut each other.

Because they are wearing full-body plate armor, the two sides do not keep their hands on the cut, and their hands are heavier. As a result, the two men's two 65-type cavalry sabers collided hard ... and then, both knives broke ...

"Broken ..." Marin was dumbfounded. This is made by high carbon steel, how easy is it to break? And there are two at one break ... Usually the iron knives created by folk blacksmiths are cut against the opponent's knives ...

But Marin quickly responded-can steel knives vs. iron choppers not win? The high carbon steel saber can be cut ...

"It seems that high carbon steel is hard enough, but lacks toughness ..."

Marlin thinks of it ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Many treasure swords of ancient China seem to use the forging method. It is the use of softer steel inside the "spine" of the blade to make the blade full of toughness. However, the surface wraps the hard part, making the blade sharp and hard. When cutting each other, you can cut off the opponent's sword without making a gap ... Or, through special treatment such as quenching, enhance the surface strength of the sword ...

In later generations, spring steel is also often used to make swords, but the edge of the sword surface is carburized to increase strength. In this way, the sword has toughness and the blade strength is enough ...

In other words, the harder the sword, the better. Although high-carbon steel has high strength, its toughness is insufficient. If the high-carbon steel knife is cut with a lower-quality iron knife, it will naturally cut the other party. However, if you cut off the other party's weapons, such as iron bars and heavy two-handed swords, it is easy to self-disrupt ...

Therefore, in order not to affect the combat effectiveness of the cavalry, Marin feels that it should improve the performance level of the cavalry knife ...

Of course, Marin refers to improving the performance level of cavalry knives used by his own army. As for export-oriented swords, high carbon steel is still used. Anyway, high-carbon steel swords are indeed much stronger than the pig iron swords that are popular in Europe now. No one will say that they are of poor quality when they are sold. But the weapons that can be used by our own army naturally need to be better, and it is necessary and necessary to improve the performance level ... ()
