Chapter 25
With lightning speed, Ren Ning pulled out the long thin needle all at once.

咴咴咴!
Chasing the wind whimpered.

"Okay, Zhuifeng is good. I won't be in pain anymore." He comforted the agitated black horse in pain.

Even so, Ren Ning inspected the black horse's body carefully with his gold fingers, and even lifted up the four hooves to check.

After confirming that there was nothing else, he backed away.

Looking at the thin needle in the palm of his hand, Ren Ning's expression was gloomy.

As a war horse, not being afraid of injury and getting used to pain are two of the trainings.

During training, the owner often uses sharp tools such as a knife to gently cut the rump and legs of the horse and other places with dry skin and thick flesh, so that the horse will get used to being attacked or injured.

The so-called habit becomes natural, and when the horse is on the battlefield, it will not run wildly because of being attacked or in pain.

But no one has ever trained a warhorse by sticking a needle in such a hidden place between the front legs of two horses.

Ren Ning understood a little.

It seems that apart from the traitor who poisoned the horse two years ago, there are other Er Wu Zai hiding in the fortress and have not been found out.

These people dare not poison or have no poison to poison, they can only pretend to go to the horse selection and use such low-level moves to try to quietly destroy some high-quality war horses.

After trying to understand the reason, Ren Ning patted the dark horse affectionately against him, turned and left.

After all, he had to thank these traitors.

Otherwise, given the general shortage of horses in the breeding camp, it would not be easy for him to find such an excellent mount.

Ren Ning put away the thin needle and did not report it immediately.

Now that he hasn't even cleared his identity, he won't make any troubles for the time being.

For half a month, Ren Ning resumed his exercise while feeding the horse, training the horse and cultivating the relationship with the mount.

Except for some troubles when Mrs. Zhang came over for a routine inspection and dressing change, she was happy to go away.

This morning, Ren Ning was walking a horse in the racecourse.

咴咴咴!
Tap tap!
Suddenly thousands of horses galloped in the fortress.

Countless war horses ran past in formation, and the sound of hooves outside was loud, raising thick smoke and dust.

In such a large scout battalion, the ground trembled faintly.

Horses come fast and go fast.

Not long after, the fortress became quiet again, returning to its original silence.However, there was a bit of chill in the air.

Ren Ning stood blankly, unable to sit still.

He's an excellent scout.Based on the vibration of the ground and the sound of the horseshoes, one can probably guess the type and number of cavalry that set off just now.

A total of [-] light cavalry left the fortress through the west gate.

To the west, it is naturally to kill the grassland.

The 24 solar terms will soon arrive at Bailu, and the entire Yunchui will soon enter the autumn harvest season.At this time, Xiliang people like to go east most, intending to plunder materials and wealth to prepare for the winter.

As the people from Yanzhou who defended their home and country, if the information was accurate, they would act first and take the initiative to drive those Xiliang people who were trying to move eastward as far as they could.

A fortress is just a stronghold, but the soldiers/people in the fortress are never just defending but not attacking.

[-] light cavalry may not seem like many, but they are actually half of the fortress cavalry.As for how many infantry accompanied him, Ren Ning had not been able to leave the scout battalion these days, so it was really unclear for a while.

He silently glanced at the western sky.

When the army goes to war, no grass grows.

I hope that the tribes such as Lanmang and Kailun who are friendly with Yunchui will be safe and sound.

It's just that there are so many Xiliang soldiers from the Kailun tribe, and they have no defense power.The fate of coming down is probably not very good...

After a hasty lunch, Ren Ning took some blueprints and found his striker Gao Deming.

Although Gao Deming was only a general, he was always busy.But he received Ren Ning patiently.

"General, all the weapons of the subordinates were lost last time. I have nothing to do these days, so I thought about some weapons that are suitable for me, and I want to go to the forging battalion to forge them. Look..."

"Really." Gao Deming was noncommittal.

He took Ren Ning's drawings and looked at them, and they really looked like weapons.It's just that compared to the weapon shape on the drawing, the peculiar drawing method attracted Gao Deming's attention.

"This painting method is a bit weird."

"The subordinates are just thinking about it." Ren Ning chuckled.

Of course weird.

Except for the dimensions that the ancients could understand, the drawings are standard mechanical drawings.

Gao Deming glanced at him, and asked shamelessly: "How do you read these blueprints?"

If Gao Deming can't pass this level, Ren Ning can't get out of the scout camp.

He patiently explained, "This is a three-view painting method."

"For example, take this saber as an example. This is a top view. As the name suggests, it is to look down from above and see what the knife looks like."

Uh.

Gao Deming nodded.

"This is the front view, which is the appearance when the saber is at the same height as the eyes. In addition, this is the left view, which is the appearance seen from the left. And this is the cutaway view of the partial plan, where you can see the details in the middle of the saber. Here It's a sectional view..."

Ren Ning explained in detail.

"With this method of drawing, craftsmen can quickly understand what these weapons or objects that they have never met before look like. Then they choose materials and techniques according to the following technical requirements. They quickly create weapons and materials."

"It's interesting." Gao Deming was very interested.

He turned his head sideways and thought for a while, and he could roughly imagine the appearance of some simple weapons on the drawings.But after all, without professional training, some details on the drawings, no matter how hard he racked his brains, it was difficult for him to spell out the appearance in his mind.

"I just don't know if it's practical or not?" Gao Deming said.

Shangfeng was just talking to himself, not asking him.

Ren Ning stood silently.

After a while, Gao Deming came back to his senses. He ignored the so-called three-view drawing method, but flipped through his office case and took out a form.

"You don't need to bother me if you can read. This is your military/merit list for this mission. It has been reviewed and completed a while ago, but I was too busy and forgot to give it to you."

"Take it and have a look. Come back and tell me if you have any questions."

Ren Ning nodded and accepted.

"Participant general." He didn't check the above military merits for the first time, but raised the weapon blueprint in his hand: "For this weapon, can my subordinates go to build a battalion?"

"Go." Gao Deming waved his hand, "You have limited mobility, find someone to accompany you later."

Ren Ning was not surprised, and nodded in agreement.

Inconvenient mobility is just a good excuse, and someone to watch is the real thing.

After leaving Gao Deming's barracks, Ren Ning waited for someone while checking his military achievements in front of the guards.

"Shouldn't have much military/merit." He muttered to himself.

Fortress pays attention to clear rewards and punishments.The same team pays attention to advancing together and retreating together.

The rest of Ren Ning's scout team failed to come back alive.Based on this alone, he wouldn't be too surprised that military merit is a negative number.

In addition, although the war horses belong to others, they are also treasured assets of the fortress.He just picked a mount, which will also deduct the corresponding military merit.

Ren Ning glanced at ten lines, quickly scanning the military/merit list.

Fortunately, he brought back enough information, killed many enemies, and even brought back the token entrusted by his comrades when they died.

Although the killing of the enemy is difficult to verify for a while, the information brought back is absolutely true, otherwise there would not be a large-scale cavalry expedition in the morning.

Therefore, after the addition, subtraction and deduction, there are still some military achievements left.

Twelve rounds of martial arts are the top, and he only has one round at this time, which is even less than the simple-minded Gu Datou.

Ren Ning has long memorized the rewards that can be exchanged for.

A little bit of money and his next generation males have the qualifications to study in the Imperial College.

Ren Ning pouted.

It's okay to talk about money, but the latter is completely a big picture.

Obtaining the qualification does not mean that you can directly study in Guozijian.It is more similar to that you have the qualifications to take the Tsinghua University and Peking University, but whether you can get in or not depends on your individual ability.

The Guozijian is the highest institution of the Yunchui Empire.Without some real knowledge, it is basically impossible for ordinary people to go in and study.

Thinking of this, Ren Ning couldn't help thinking of Yingpan.

As an international student, this girl's eldest brother can easily enter the Imperial College without passing the provincial and provincial examinations.
