Ancestor Bless: I built a thousand-year-old family

Chapter 412
The next day.

Huo Qubing sent Luo Wuji off and asked, "Wuji, what did I say last night?"

Luo Wuji laughed and said: "It's nothing, it's just some rhetoric that hasn't wiped out the Xiongnu, and they will never get married, which shocked me greatly, Brother Qubing is really a role model for my men in Zhuxia.

If everyone is like you, are you worried about not being able to wipe out the Huns? "

Huo Qubing felt relieved when he heard the words, and said with a loud smile: "A man's ambition is everywhere in the world, like a great river rushing into the sea, how can it be delayed because of a mere child's affair, it's a pity that you are the son of the Luo family, you have a great responsibility, you can't in this way."

Luo Wuji is Luo Ling's designated successor of Lord Zhao, and unlike other Luo family sons, he shoulders the heavy responsibility of multiplying the family, so he cannot be willful.

The two said goodbye to each other with fists in their hands, Luo Wuji boarded the carriage, glanced at the heroic Huo Qubing, smiled and shook his head, "It's a pity."

……

Zhaocheng.

Luo Jinxiu is following along to learn the main points about sacrifices. She has been learning these things since she was a child. Since the time of the Luo Kingdom, the daughters of the Luo family have been responsible for offering sacrifices to ancestors, somewhat similar to the legendary witches.

But unlike those sects of false gods, the priests of the Luo family can go directly to the nihilistic heaven, and then be blessed and nourished, so this is not a boring job, but an activity with positive feedback, which is the welfare of the Luo family .

"Sister, here is a letter for you from Chang'an, sent by the young master Wuji."

The person who called Sister Luo Jinxiu was a very pretty little girl, a daughter of the Luo family who had just lost her stigmata, and she was an absolute member of the family, so she came to take care of Luo Jinxiu.

Luo Jinxiu took the letter and opened it, and lines of bold handwriting appeared in front of her.

"Sister, seeing a letter is like meeting a face.

Good luck and peace.

May the light always shine on you.

It has been more than a year since my elder sister returned to Zhaocheng and my younger brother went to the grassland to go out to fight. My younger brother misses my elder sister very much. The Wushuanghou Mansion has basically been completed. My younger brother has built a separate courtyard in the mansion for my elder sister, which is the same as that in Zhaocheng. If sister saw it, she would be delighted.

The emperor had promised his younger brother that after a few years, he would lead an army through Hexi to the Western Regions, and his father's last wish could be foreseen to be fulfilled.

But my brother was a little worried.

I don't know how long this expedition will take, there are five thousand miles of vast mountains, rivers and rivers, you and I want to meet each other, I don't know when it will be.

I don't know when my sister will return to Chang'an? "

Luo Jinxiu read it twice, and said with a smile: "This kid knows all these things, Ah Jiu, get some paper and ink."

Lines of elegant handwriting fell on it.

Luo Jinxiu was able to leave for Chang'an last month, but Duke Zhao asked her to wait a little bit, because a research in the family has reached a critical moment, and the research will be completed soon.

After it is completed, it will be taken to Chang'an City. When the time comes, we will go together, accompanied by a large number of brave warriors, which is safer.

After all, a girl from the Luo family like Luo Jinxiu is really eye-catching when walking outside. There are too many people with ulterior motives in this world, who have all kinds of outrageous ideas. Girls from the Luo family are like Tang monk meat, and they still need to be protected.

Zhao Gong took a group of people to stay at the proving ground, preparing to test the family's new military equipment - the three treasures of the imperial horse, namely saddles, stirrups, and horseshoes.

The manufacture of these things is actually not that simple. Saddles and stirrups are relatively simple, but horseshoes are more difficult. Once the craftsmanship is immature, or the quality of the iron is problematic, it will not protect the horse, but cause huge harm to the horse. harm.

And it didn’t take long to build these things, but it took too long to experiment and improve. The saddle and stirrups should make the rider feel relaxed instead of tired after sitting for a while. This is in harmony with the human body. If it is related to engineering, the horse's own carrying and bearing capacity must also be considered, so that the saddle and stirrup cannot hurt the horse during the galloping process.

The most troublesome part of the test is the horseshoe. The main thing is to test whether it fits or not. Just like people wear shoes, they also need to test whether the model can match. The best horseshoe was finally created by Rockwell's repeated improvements.

Rockwell plans to hand over this technology to Hanting directly, because once the technology is broken through and the experiment is completed, there are actually no technical barriers. As long as the blacksmith works hard, the quality of the iron ore is decent, and it is easy to imitate.

This is different from paper. High-quality paper has core technology, and ordinary people really can't imitate it.

Mr. Zhao stood on the sidelines of the school field, watching the battle inspection of the three treasures of the royal horse.

Of course, the ones who go into battle are not dare warriors, dare warriors don’t need this thing to move around on the horse, and can follow the charge. They can do it since the time of Luo Wugong. This is a necessary condition for becoming a dare warrior.

Dozens of knights held lances, rode tall horses, and charged at the school field at an extremely fast speed, causing dust to rise from the school field. This kind of speed usually only appears in a desperate charge, because such a fast speed is considered a skill comparison. A good knight can also be unstable.

But now they were terribly stable. These knights slashed the scarecrow's body heavily with the horses in their hands, and cut off the scarecrow's head instantly with high speed and sharp blades.

These knights were shaken by the force of the recoil. In the past, only the best knights, such as Luo Wuji and Huo Qubing, as well as the best guards of the Han army could stabilize their bodies.

But now all the soldiers in the school field sat firmly on their horses after a short shake. Although they had expected it, they were still inexplicably shocked when they saw this scene.

"Master, the horseshoe is not damaged at all, and the horseshoe is hardly worn out. The quality is very good, there are no nails shaking, and no cracks appear."

The master of Luoshi checked the horseshoe of the horse that had just galloped violently, and then excitedly reported to Mr. Zhao.

Seeing this scene, even the stupidest people know that these things will change the situation of the war. The cavalry is no longer a unit that can only shoot arrows and hunt down. The cavalry will also be able to get the task of charging into the battle.

"color!"

Mr. Zhao cheered loudly, and then everyone on the sidelines of the school began to applaud, proud of the family, this is our Rock, always at the forefront of everything.

"Patriarch, should this technology be handed over to Hunting immediately?

What if it leaked to the Huns?
After all, most of the cavalry is now with the Huns, which greatly strengthens the Huns. "

Mr. Zhao shook his hand and said with a smile: "Although the Huns now have many cavalry, the situation of offense and defense in this world is constantly changing. The Han court took away the land of Henan, and there were horses, and with the addition of the Three Treasures of the Royal Horse, they could form cavalry.

If the Han court wanted to fight the Xiongnu and open up the road from Hexi to the Western Regions, it needed these artifacts that could deploy cavalry on a large scale.

As for worrying about the strengthening of the Huns, it is even more nonsense. As long as they are completely defeated and destroyed before the Huns react, will the corpses get up from the ground and fight immediately? "

Zhao Gong wanted to make use of this time difference, and completely wiped out the Huns in the short period of time when the Han court installed horseshoes and the Huns had not yet learned.

Moreover, the Luo family is very clear that the Han court wants to attack the Western Regions first. As long as this strategic goal is achieved, it will be useless even if the Huns learn how to make the three treasures of the imperial horse, because the Huns cannot connect the Western Regions and the Central Plains. High iron smelting technology and high quality iron ore.

Everyone was convinced, and then stared at the three-piece suit hanging on the horse. With these things, Han Ting's sphere of influence will reach farther places.

"Immediately set up a mission and go to Chang'an. I can't wait for the time to pay tribute. I must immediately present these things to the emperor. This is the best gift that the Luo family gave him. Let the emperor of Chang'an know that the Luo family has always supported his opponent. The Huns fought and were willing to sacrifice and sacrifice for it.

Not just the children of the family, but also these technical supports. "

Duke Zhao spoke loudly to the crowd, and they all said in unison: "Zhuxia Wannian!"

In Luo Jinxiu's other courtyard, the maid walked in and said with a smile: "Sister, the Patriarch said that a mission will be formed to go to Chang'an soon, and you can go back to Chang'an. Young Master Wuji must be very happy to know."

Luo Jinxiu was full of surprises when she heard the words, "It's time to clean up and salute."

----

The longer the author studies history, the more I believe that Su Wang is really protecting the civilizations of the Xia. At the critical moment of the Han-Hungary War, the artifact that changed the ancient war, the Three Treasures of the Royal Horse came out, just like paper, and it is the Luo family. The workshop produced this artifact that completely changed the balance of power between Han and Hungarian.

Many laymen may think that the appearance of the Three Treasures of the Royal Horse has further enhanced the power of the cavalry, which in turn has greatly enhanced the power of the nomads. This is actually a very biased idea.

The biggest role of the Three Treasures of the Royal Horse is to reduce the cost of becoming a cavalry. With the blessing of these three pieces of equipment, the horse-riding infantry of the Central Plains Dynasty became excellent cavalry overnight.

Taking the Han Empire as an example, before the Three Treasures of the Royal Horse appeared, there were no more than [-] soldiers who could fight on horseback. What hindered the Han Empire from forming a large-scale cavalry was not only the number of horses, but also the soldiers who could control the horses.

However, after the appearance of the Three Treasures of the Royal Horse, the number of people who could fight immediately increased to the order of 15. The only condition that hindered the formation of cavalry in the Han Empire was the lack of horses, but for the Han Dynasty that captured Henan, the number of horses had already is an easy problem to solve.

There is also the most overlooked point, that is, the appearance of horseshoes greatly reduced the loss of war horses of the Han Empire, which effectively reduced the cost of wars in the Han Empire.

It is hard for the author to imagine that without the appearance of horseshoes, the Han Empire would lose hundreds of thousands of war horses in each battle, what a huge military expenditure it would be, even if the empire was empty, it would be possible.

It is no exaggeration that a horseshoe saved the empire's finances. ——"History of the Rise and Fall of the Han Dynasty"
