The first free king of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 513 The Power of the Cavalry

Ha ha ha ha!it is good!OK! "

In Chengqing Hall, Li Shimin's heroic laughter came out.

Li Shimin was pacing back and forth in the hall with the dragon robe still on his body, and even handed down Li Jing's autographed letter.

When Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and several of Li Shimin's humerus lovers read Li Jing's handwritten letter one by one, they all showed shock on their faces.

Du Ruhui even blushed his old face, couldn't help coughing a few times, and then said in amazement.

"Cough! Cough! Hey, five thousand fast horses crossed the Yellow River. The number of people killed in the battle plus the loss was less than a hundred horses! Your Majesty, God bless my Tang army!"

As Minister of the Ministry of War last year, Du Ruhui was not just a Confucian official holding a book of sages and saying nothing.

And it was also the character who followed Li Shimin to the battlefield with a knife in his hand, many years before the battle.

For these things on the battlefield, he is also a master of guns - he understands and understands better.

Five thousand fast horses cross the Yellow River and cross the beach, and the loss is no more than a hundred horses!

What kind of concept is this? This is something that has never been seen on the battlefield since ancient times.

From then on, he, Tang, no longer had to worry about the loss of military horses, which was a huge military expenditure.

Even going to Mobei this time, it can give the Turks an unexpected head-on blow.

And all of this is just because of Tang Sufan's horseshoe!

At this point, the rest of Fang Xuanling and the others couldn't help being astonished.

Since history recorded, war horses have always been the most powerful resource on the battlefield, but now Tang Sufan's horseshoe has directly and greatly solved the problem of the army and horses of the Tang Dynasty.

Among them, the miraculous achievements are no longer enough to count them one or two.

Just like today, how could the Turkic army guarding the Yellow River crossing the beach expect that there would be five thousand fast horses crossing the Yellow River crossing the beach to kill them?
Don't think about it, how many pairs of cavalry can the Turks guard the Yellow River crossing the beach?

Five thousand cavalry entered the battle and confronted the Turkic who could only run on two legs, it was tantamount to chopping melons and vegetables.

Within a few rounds of rushing, the so-called Turkic guarding barrier was about to be broken by more than half.

This is also one of the reasons why Li Jing's military situation came back so quickly.

Li Shimin smiled loudly, slowly suppressed his excitement and sat down slowly, still couldn't help but raised his voice.

"It's more than that, besides Su Fan's horseshoe, there is another thing that has also made extraordinary achievements..."

Having said so far, Li Shimin was still in the mood to show off, so he spoke in a cadenced manner.

When the humerus heard this, they immediately thought about it.

Only Changsun Wuji's long and narrow eyes flickered, and he looked at Li Shimin with some hesitation.

"What Your Majesty is referring to...could it be the specially made harness?"

Li Shimin gave a long laugh: "Haha, that's right!"

Let's move on.

A few months ago, Tang Sufan's horseshoe was definitely a military achievement, and Liu Xiao has been working under Tang Sufan since then.

As Tang Sufan's current "runner", there is naturally such a horse.

However, the native harness of the Tang Dynasty is really poor and simple.

The most common ones are made of baked animal leather, plus some chamois fluff is roughly tied to reduce the friction between yourself and the horse's back.

Not only did it look a little weird, it even looked a little funny in the eyes of Tang Sufan, a modern person.

Later Tang Sufan saw Liu Xiao riding this strange horse leather all day long, not to mention it was beautiful, the horse could not bear it.

In the end, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I asked the old uncle Wang next to the neighboring courtyard to build a decent set of saddles and stirrups.

At that time, Tang Sufan was only sympathetic to his intention of beating a worker, and he was far from reaching the point where he needed a noble body to fight against the aristocratic family.

I went back and forth and forgot about the saddle and stirrup that matched the horseshoe.

But Liu Xiao is a good guy
He is the master of the bright mind.

It can be seen that this horseshoe and this special harness are a match made in heaven.

Not only does it make it easier to ride a horse, but it also saves more energy when riding, and greatly improves the comfort.

Immediately, Liu Xiao sneaked into the palace and reported to Li Shimin.

When Li Shimin saw the benefits of this thing, he naturally moved his mind.

Naturally, Li Shimin would not say anything about the great benefits of whoring for nothing.

And it took only a day or two to sneak in and order the Ministry of Industry to make all the saddles and stirrups.

And Liu Xiao was also credited by Li Shimin.

This also made Liu Xiao realize the beauty of being by Tang Sufan's side.

It is so difficult for people like them in the big palace to make a contribution.

This made Liu Xiao obediently become Tang Sufan's migrant worker.

Not only is there wages, but also freedom outside, and the benefits that this young master throws out from time to time are enough to make meritorious service in front of His Majesty. How beautiful are the benefits?

Rather than being a cautious guard all day in front of the palace saint, it is better to follow this young master, not to mention other things, this food makes him reluctant to leave.

In this way, without the knowledge of countless people, Li Jing's army sent out cavalry with many things that they did not have before.

And this matter was also secretly supervised by Duan Lun, Secretary of the Ministry of Industry, under Li Shimin's secret order. Except for the people in the three central provinces, few people really knew about it.

Changsun Wuji was able to remember so quickly because of Li Jing's military analysis.

In the end, after a few words between the monarch and his ministers, Li Shimin proudly raised his chest and folded his stomach and came to a conclusion.

"I heard that this thing is a saddle and stirrup. I have tried it myself. It is a sharp weapon for horse control, not inferior to a horseshoe. Hmph, that miserly boy, no matter what, he would never have imagined that such a good thing has come into my hands." !"

Let all the humerus call your Majesty a woman... Cough cough, Shengming, Shengming...

Finally, under the discussion of Li Shimin Humerus and others.

Li Shimin immediately sent someone to notify Datang Bookstore.

Publish articles and newspapers, and the mansion newspaper to which the mansion belongs publishes a comprehensive list.

Datang went out for an expedition, and within five or six days the news of victory came. This was a great event to inspire the hearts of the people, and of course it had to be well planned.

Compared with the excitement of Chang'an City Palace.

Far on the border of the Tang Dynasty——

On the grassland near Suizhou, the atmosphere inside a tent was as cold as ice.

This is the account of the Tie Le tribe.

The one seated in the first place was a large and fierce man who was decorated with some unknown bone artifacts. He was the leader of the Tiele clan, Qibi Heli.

Among the Turkic tribes, he is famous for his skill in cutting sabers with one hand.

"Hmph, how dare he, Li Jing, dare to cross the Yellow River shoal directly with five thousand horses! He, Li Jing, has a few catties of wealth, so it is worth the expense!"

Qibi Heli's eyes showed a fierce look, his anger was soaring, and he shouted angrily.

This time, he, the Tiele tribe, was in charge of the task of guarding the crossing of the Yellow River.

Unexpectedly, this fellow Li Jing directly slashed on the head of the Tie Le tribe with a ruthless knife.

Before the two armies faced the enemy, the Tie Le tribe suffered heavy losses directly.

At that time, when they attacked Datang, how could the Tie Le tribe divide the land based on their merits?

Even in the worst case, the strength of his Tiele tribe on the grassland would be greatly reduced.

Will other tribes jump in?After all, on the grassland, the tribe's population and strength are the most important foundation.

This time, Li Jing directly asked him to recruit more than [-] warriors from the Tie Le tribe.

How could he not be angry with Qibi Heli?
Even now he still can't figure out why the Tang cavalry are so brave so far?
"Report! Leader, the messenger of the Khan is here!"

At this time, a soldier was outside the tent, and the loud voice communicated in Turkic.
