Chapter 12: Food, clothing, housing and transportation are civilization

crisis!

The blood-sucking immortal seed swung the knight sword in his hand without hesitation, and held it high in front of him with the silver cross sword technique inherited from the central knights. This sword technique is similar to the fighting skills of medieval knights. The Italians on the Sicily Peninsula inherited the sword technique style from the late Roman Empire. The attack method of sword technique is known for its great opening and opening. The lethality of the lower and side chops is extremely fierce. The core of the sword technique is an interlaced cross, which belongs to a very simple and practical sword technique with amazing lethality!

If this sword technique can be used in the realm of "big cleverness is like clumsy", its lethality is no less than the exquisite skills of high elves.

"Never lower the sword!"

This is the core of the Cross Sword Technique, and it is also the sword technique that is most used in weapon Knight Sword!

Whether it is this plane or Murphy's original plane, unless the weapons used for the evolution of civilization have undergone fundamental changes, this basic technique evolved according to the characteristics of the weapon will not change. In the civilizations of previous lives, Western races had physical advantages, so most of their swordsmanship tend to be big openings and close together. They rely entirely on brute force in battle and do not pursue exquisite skills. Therefore, although they have their own swordsmanship, the swordsmanship moves are very simple, and they are not as complicated as Eastern civilizations, so naturally they have not formed a school.

During the Crusades, Western swordsmanship flourished to its peak. Knights from European countries set foot on the land of Jerusalem and merged the swordsmanship of the entire European in that era into one in the battle with the Islamic world!

If you want to give this sword technique a name, it may be the same as the sword technique in this plane, called Cross Sword.

Because this combat skills that evolve according to the type of weapons are a staggered cross. Remove the modifiers in martial arts novels, just from the perspective of combat methods, let alone weapons such as guns, axes, knives, etc., take the sword as a weapon, all combat skills, that is, the so-called martial arts moves in the East, etc., are actually evolved based on the type of weapons.

The swords used in the West are obviously heavier, so they are more suitable for chopping and chopping. Their attack moves are also focused on the word "slash, chop".

The Eastern sword is much lighter, and the difference in weight determines that the Eastern sword technique is suitable for cumbersome skills. There is a true meaning in the cold weapon battlefield, that is, the heavier the weapon, the fewer skills are needed, and you can just smash it directly. If it is said that Western heavy swords have an overwhelming advantage on the battlefield, but if it comes to single-handed fights, then Eastern sword technique can be said to be invincible.

But it is precisely because of this that there are basically no swords on the battlefield in the east, and instead use swords!

Because it was difficult for the Eastern swordsman to adapt to the battlefield in the later stages. This swordsman that evolved to the later stages could produce peerless swordsmen, but there was no way to cultivate qualified swordsmen in large numbers! In the later stage, the Middle Earth sword became one of the decorations of literati and poets, and became a must-have prop for picking up girls to show off their handsomeness!

At the end of the Middle Ages, knights gradually withdrew from the stage of history, and Western swordsmanship began to enter a period of decline.

Especially after the Crusades, the brilliant swordsmanship that was born to adapt to the times began to break the inheritance, and then there was almost no matter how many things remained. The West entered the gunpowder civilization several hundred years earlier than the East, and it began to enter the decline of swordsmanship several hundred years earlier. And the East did not enter the decline of civilization until the end of the Qing Dynasty, so part of it was retained.

Under civilization, they are all ants!

After seeing the blood-sucking immortal seed in front of me, Murphy's mouth suddenly curled up a little.

Because, he will do this swordsmanship!

We must mention the weapon here, that is, the knight sword in the original world tends to the early and primitive knight sword. Due to the backward forging technology, that plane is far inferior to the world where Murphy is now. The knight sword used in this world is more similar to the hand-half sword popular in the Middle Ages, also known as the "mixed sword", which is known as a milestone in the history of the sword!

The half-handed sword is an illegitimate son of a one-handed sword and a giant sword. It has length advantages and attack power advantages over a one-handed sword, and is easier to carry than a two-handed sword.

This weapon combines the slashing of the two-handed sword and the stabbing of the early knight sword. It can be used both with both hands and with shields. It can be said to be one of the sword species that has reproduced to the peak of the cold weapon era, and finally became one of the configurations of the standard knight sword! In contrast, the core of the Eastern battlefield is still biased towards swords. Not to mention the well-known horizontal swords, Mo swords, Park swords, ring-head swords, etc., the later waist swords, rolling back double swords, spleen swords, two-handed swords, back swords, nest swords, mandarin duck swords, stern swords, cutting swords, wind swords, etc. are even more dazzling.

In the world where the Kingdom of Athens was located, Murphy didn't want to replace the weapons and forge these more lethal weapons.

The fundamental reason is that the civilization level of the entire plane is not sufficient, and it is impossible to provide the craft level of forging these weapons. Even the dwarves, which are known for their forging level, have at most the craft level that is equivalent to the early medieval civilization.

Athens' current forging technology is still at the level of "hundred steel making" and the lowest standard for forging these weapons also requires the "steel filling method" from the Sui and Tang Dynasties!

As for the forging technology of the hybrid sword in front of you, the required level requirements are even higher.

Because the craftsmanship of this sword was born on the earth in the fifteenth century, it is nearly a thousand years away from the civilization stage in the Kingdom of Athens!

Although Murphy tried his best to improve the level of human civilization and develop the craftsmanship of all walks of life as much as possible, the average level of civilization in the kingdom was at most comparable to that of the Roman Empire, which was around the third century AD. This was because he had the great killer of the "Total War" auxiliary system, otherwise, the overall civilization of human beings would have to be at the same level as BC.

How difficult is it to develop a primitive civilization?

This is definitely not something that specialized talents in a certain industry can do, unless it is a whimsical yy! Without time to settle down little by little, without the transition of the times step by step, covering the level of civilization in all walks of life, how can it be possible to make leaps and bounds with a slight change? If you can forge steel, you will build guns and cannons? If you have guns and cannons, you can make everyone have enough food? You can be equal in just one word?

Murphy once heard a saying, "Food, clothing, housing and transportation are civilizations!"

Therefore, for Murphy, if possible, this plane is not only a place for warriors to advance, but also an important key to the transition of the Kingdom of Athens as soon as possible and entering medieval civilization. Whether it is the evolution of production tools, the development of forging technology, or the research on military matching tactics, etc., there are places worthy of his learning and reference and learning from its essence.

Therefore, what he needed was not only warriors, but also a large number of scholars.
