I received my adopted son in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 113 Cavalry Three-piece Suit

Not long after, the Liangzhou Dama was led out again.After all, Old Dong is not a devil, and he will not kill Dian Wei's beloved for no reason.

It's just that the war horse has become a little weird, and there is a metallic sound in the kicking and kicking.

The walking posture is either slanted outwards or inwards. From time to time, he rubs against the ground, just like the toddler in Handan who forgot how to walk.

After seeing Dian Wei, it immediately felt wronged and wanted to run over, but when it saw its master rubbing the big iron halberd, it was so frightened that it almost lay down on the ground.

"My lord, you didn't kill it..." Then Dian Wei came over with a big iron halberd, and made the horse so wronged that he was about to cry on the spot, his neighing was full of resentment.

Old Dong didn't care about this, and asked Dian Wei to lead it to a road covered with gravel and iron pieces, and said, "Ride it and walk around."

Ma'er was very reluctant, but when he saw the big iron halberd in Dian Wei's hand, he wisely chose to submit.

The effect, of course, is very good.

Although it has been studded with horseshoes, it walks a bit like a crab, but there is no damage after turning over the horseshoes.Even later, he liked this feeling a little bit, and took the initiative to walk around with enchanting steps.

Cai Yan's bright eyes trembled slightly, and the strange knowledge increased: "Uncle only used a semicircular piece of iron to solve the eternal problem of the horse's hoof being damaged due to the long-term raid of the war horse?"

"That's right, the Xiliang iron cavalry and the Bingzhou wolf cavalry are the best in the world, and they are also the weapons that this old man is far superior to the Kanto infantry."

"However, the old man has been paying attention for many years, and found that the horseshoes of the invincible Han cavalry have worn out, causing the number of cavalry in the army to be far less than [-]% of the infantry."

"As a result, a lot of money and grains need to be used to breed new horses, even if they hurt the people and consume the country, they are not enough for the battlefield. The price of horses has always remained high."

Speaking of this, he still held his chest with a heartbroken expression: "Thinking about this, the old man can't sleep at night... One day, I came up with this thing on a whim to extend the service life of the war horse."

"In this way, the old man's iron cavalry can trek and attack as he likes. And it's not difficult to nail a horseshoe, it only takes a few moments."

Then, he couldn't help showing a sly smirk: "When those Guandong scholars called, the old man nailed all the horses of the army, and killed them by surprise!"

When Dian Wei heard this, his expression was astonished.

After a brief moment of stupefaction, his breathing gradually increased, his face flushed, and his expression gradually became agitated.Finally, he looked at Old Dong suddenly, and said with grief and indignation: "My lord, is this thing nailed into a horse's hoof?... This, how painful it must be!"

Old Dong's complacent expression suddenly froze, and he looked around to find something to beat Dian Wei: "I told you, read more when you have nothing to do!"

"The horse's hoof is the cuticle, which is as painless as a human fingernail. If it hurts, can you still run around happily at this moment?"

Only then did Dian Wei come to his senses, seeing that the war horse under his crotch was indeed very happy, and he gave Old Dong a simple and apologetic smile.

Cai Yan looked even more shocked, and said in a dazed way: "Father once studied that a war horse can go to the battlefield at the age of three, but after three to four years at most, it has to be retired."

"However, a horse usually has a lifespan of 20 years, and it takes only three or four years to give up due to broken hooves. The huge cost is really embarrassing."

As he spoke, he couldn't help looking at Dong Zhuo, and said excitedly, "You know, uncle, if you were born hundreds of years earlier and invented this thing when Emperor Wu conquered the Xiongnu, I don't know how much national power you can save, and how much territory you can conquer for the great man!"

"Heh..." Old Dong didn't take it seriously, and said, "Just a horseshoe is not enough to shock the world. Take a closer look, how is this horse equipment different from before?"

"Uncle mean?..." Cai Yan blinked again, remembering what Old Dong said before, her expression changed: "Three-piece suit?"

Dian Wei couldn't bear the loneliness again, so he said, "Isn't my lord talking about this saddle?... This thing makes a certain family's butt hurt even more."

"Endure it!" Old Dong roared again at that time, and he was almost furious: You have a high level of force, otherwise, you would have been beaten up long ago.

I hate spoilers like you the most.

After getting the answer, Cai Yan immediately took a closer look at the difference between his horse and this war horse's saddle: he saw that there were two pads on the left and right sides of the saddle on his white horse's back. It is fixed on the horse's back by a belly belt and is a typical soft saddle.

The saddle of the Dianwei war horse is made of wood, covered with leather, and equipped with a metal lock.There are more saddle bridges tilted up and down on the front and back of the saddle pad, which makes it easier for people to maintain balance on the horseback.

Then, at the pedals, I found that there is a place on the left and right, which can just make the legs use their strength.Even those with excellent riding skills can borrow two stirrups to complete superb and complex slashing and stabbing movements.

She is not proficient in riding combat, but she can imagine that when two generals confront each other, one can use the whole body of the horse to exert strength, while the other can only use the strength of the upper body, and has to be distracted by his legs tightly clamping the horse's belly to prevent himself drop down……

"Uncle is really a heavenly man!"

Imagining this, Cai Yan couldn't help but her pretty face turned red, and her delicate body couldn't help trembling: "Equipped with this high bridge saddle and double-sided stirrups, it can increase the combat effectiveness of cavalry by at least [-]%!"

A talented woman like her really cannot resist the charm of wisdom.

Just three inconspicuous changes have increased the overall combat effectiveness of the big Han iron cavalry so much, leaving the princes of the same period far behind, making people feel extremely excited!
Even, she doesn't like it.

But as long as she thinks that these can make the big Han cavalry powerful outside the Great Wall, and the people no longer have to worry about being robbed by the Qiang and Hu aliens, she can't help herself and can't help herself.

"That's right, with the Takahashi saddle and the double hundred stirrups, the gap between our Han farmers and nomads will be shortened rapidly."

Old Dong explained from the perspective of a cavalryman: "Without these, it would be extremely difficult for us to train a qualified cavalryman. Most of the common people would be thrown off by their horses when they first learned how to ride."

"Even if you can use your legs to clamp the horse's belly to maintain left-right balance, you still need to use one hand to hold the horse's mane or rein for front-to-back balance."

Speaking of this, I couldn't help but glanced at Dian Wei, and said with a smile: "So Awei, don't feel inferior, your riding skills have actually improved very fast. Most people have been riding horses for more than a month, and they still hold their hands tightly around the horse's neck. The idiots will even accidentally cover the horse's eyes..."

Hearing this, Dian Wei got on his horse and felt it again, and then his face became unhappy: "Since my lord has invented these long ago, why do you still have to practice riding like that?"

"This subordinate has been thrown countless times during this period, and all the bones in his body are about to fall apart..."

"Oh, what are you talking about..." Old Dong waved his hands blankly and said, "I'll explain this to you later, let the old man finish talking to Zhaoji first."

Then he quickly looked at Cai Yan and said, "But the nomads are different. They have lived on horseback since childhood. If you observe carefully, you will find that their legs are all looped, which is caused by riding on horseback all year round. deformities of the body."

"These people are naturally better at riding than us, and they can free up at least one hand for fighting during the charge. Even more powerful, they can also shoot bows and arrows on horseback."

"Hmm..." At this point, Old Dong couldn't help but pause, and said: "For example, the old man back then could not only shoot arrows on horseback, but also shot from left to right while galloping."

Cai Yan, who was admiringly listening to it with gusto, looked as if he had eaten a fly at that time, and couldn't help breaking the stage: "What about uncle now?"

"Uh……"

"My lord, you haven't said why you want me to practice riding so hard."

Old Dong, who was full of evil fire and had no place to vent, stopped pretending immediately, and shouted at the showdown: "There is no reason, the old man just likes to see you fall with a black nose and a swollen face, what can you do!"

"me!……"

Dian Wei's face was black and purple, and he picked up the big iron halberd angrily: "I'll go grind the iron halberd again!...Really, the rust can't be cleaned off!"
