I joined the army for my father, and I took Hua Mulan to build infrastructure.

Tuoba Tao felt very happy when he saw the officials who had taken advantage of the bricks. They had not noticed the real function of the adobe bricks and were still complacent!

Captain Brick, who was trapped in the two camps, carried his tools and bricks and prostrated himself in front of the Emperor's Palace.

"Captain Brick, who is trapped in the camp, pays homage to the Emperor!"

Upon hearing this title, a group of people immediately understood that such a weird official position was definitely awarded by the emperor!

Then everyone turned their attention to a certain trapped camp leader who was eating melons. Could this guy be involved in it?

Ye Nan looked at the ground guiltily.

I thought in my heart that the Emperor took the blame for me, and it has nothing to do with Ye Nan. If something happens, I will go to the emperor who is a shameless person...

Tuoba Tao pretended to ask: "Can you two really make adobe bricks for building houses? As far as I know, unfired adobe bricks break into pieces when pinched and cannot be used as bricks at all. You two And what method was used to do it?"

The two brick captains replied: "Replying to your majesty, we and I also accidentally discovered the manufacturing method of this kind of adobe bricks. The manufacturing materials are actually very simple. We only need loess, crushed wheat straw and rice soup, and they can be mixed according to a certain proportion. Then use this wooden box to compact it, pour it out and dry it before use."

The civil and military officials throughout the court were shocked. What the hell are you talking about? The loess, broken wheat straw, and rice soup that can be seen everywhere are worthless things!

There are also meritorious nobles and veterans who jumped out to sing the opposite, saying: "How can a house be built with soil? It's nonsense! It's such a powerful statement, so take out the bricks and let everyone tell the authenticity!"

Officials from several major aristocratic families stood up and prepared to knock down the adobe brick.

But is the emperor so easily attacked?

He is not!

Tuoba Tao had made countless preparations for today's scene. After consulting Ye Nan about the strength required for making clay bricks, he directly replaced the rice soup of millet porridge with glutinous rice paste to mix with the mud... …

The adobe bricks made in this way are even more powerful against enemies.

The two lieutenants opened the wooden box in front of everyone, took out the dried glutinous rice clay bricks, placed them on the ground one by one, then clasped their fists and saluted: "Your Majesty, please inspect!"

Tuoba Tao had already begun to laugh wildly in his heart, but he still pretended to be calm and said: "In that case, the boss of the Dugu family will come forward and check it out. If it is possible, I will take care of this." Promote the method to the world!"

The last sentence really shocked the courtiers present. Some were happy and some were sad. The group of nobles all looked at the old man of the Dugu family, waiting for him to smash the bricks and beat them. The emperor wanted to get involved in the brick business.

I saw the veteran of the Dugu family holding up an adobe brick with a solemn face in both hands, and smashed it to the ground with all his strength!

boom!

The brick was knocked up by him and rolled several times, but it was unscathed!

The civil and military officials in the court were dumbfounded. Is this really an adobe brick?

I'm afraid even the fired bricks can't withstand such smashing!

Only Ye Nan stood aside and sneered. This was a brick made by a black-faced emperor who added black technology to the glutinous rice. How could it be broken?

If the clay bricks were made from the rice soup of millet porridge, they really wouldn't be able to withstand such a fall, but Tuoba Tao is used to not following common sense. He is afraid that the boat will capsize and the glutinous rice will get into it, just to be sure. !

Tuoba Tao smiled, pointed to the adobe bricks on the ground and said: "God has really blessed me, the Wei Dynasty! I didn't expect that even these loess wheat straws and rice soup in our country of Wei have become treasures, and I have many rewards! Niu Li Er If a person presents a treasure with merit, he will be granted the title of General of Casting, and he will be in charge of the whole country to implement the method of adobe bricks!"

The old soldiers in the two camps were so happy that they immediately prostrated themselves on the ground and shouted: "The general's decree will live up to your majesty's expectations and pass on the method of making adobe bricks to our great Wei Dynasty!"

Tuoba Tao's move was absolutely unexpected. He named the two generals as unprecedented miscellaneous generals. He did not classify them as civilian officials, but also had the intention of protecting them.

There is no shortage of people in the world who are eager to jump over the wall. If they do not take over the military power and become a civil servant, they may not know how they will die. This has seriously affected the interests of the nobles.

Moreover, the fact that these adobe bricks can repair stoves has not yet been exposed, so it is necessary to prevent these nobles from jumping into the wall in advance. So Tuoba Tao promoted the two of them to generals, so they could at least protect themselves, right?

Seeing that the emperor had finished pretending, Ye Nan walked out of the queue and said: "Your Majesty, General Ye Nan has something he wants to report, and I don't know whether to say it or not."

Tuoba Tao was in a good mood and said, "If Marquis Zhongyong has something to do, just report it. I would like to see if you have anything serious to do."

A group of big guys laughed and opened their eyes. Ye Nan obviously hinted that he wanted to whisper to the emperor in court, but it was a pity that the emperor didn't understand...

Ye Nan could only express his opinion and said: "Your Majesty, the final general's observation camp and the Chinese cavalry battalions are equipped with heavy armored cavalry, and a big problem has been discovered!"

As soon as the question was mentioned, the emperor and the military attachés opened their eyes wide.

Tuoba Tao frowned and asked, "What's the problem?"

Ye Nan pretended to be exaggerated and said: "There are no stirrups under the saddle! How can the heavy cavalry sit firmly without stirrups? When the general was training the cavalry, he found that many people fell into disgrace, and many of them suffered bloody injuries. , Your Majesty, this..."

Before Ye Nan finished speaking, a veteran stood up and said: "Zhongyonghou, the horse stirrup is a plaything that you Han people use. My Xianbei warriors are proficient in bow and horse. What do you want with that thing? As for throwing. Those who fall off their horses must be because they are not good at riding horses!"

The emperor felt the same way and just thought Ye Nan was making a fuss out of a molehill.

Ye Nan also felt that he had made a mistake. He didn't expect that there are still horse stirrups in this era, but it's your fault that you didn't pay attention to it!

So Ye Nan retorted: "This is not the same thing as being proficient with bows and horses, right! If the cavalry collides, the impact will definitely be huge. People will be turned upside down at every turn. Nowadays, the Chinese army is full of heavy cavalry. If they are all hit by someone, Get off your horse, what will you do then? Wait for death?"

"That's nonsense! Marquis Zhongyong is too alarmist. How could such a thing happen?" A veteran shouted in disbelief.

Ye Nan cupped his fists at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the heavy cavalry is indeed a powerful weapon that sweeps across the battlefield, so why can't it be made more invincible? A little change might change history!"

Tuoba Tao didn't care at first, but when he heard what Ye Nan said, he instantly became interested. He looked at Ye Nan and said, "How can Marquis Zhongyong prove that stirrups are indispensable for heavy cavalry? Is it that important? "

Ye Nan smiled and said: "The general is incompetent. I am willing to use a hundred heavy cavalry in the trapped camp to fight twice as many heavy cavalry. Who dares to bet?"

Yes, Ye Nan is addicted to gambling...

There are always some powerful generals who can't stand Ye Nan's aggressive tactics. A general standing at the front stood up and said, "I, Xi Jin, will bet against you! Young people have little knowledge, and not all Han people's things are treasures. I can tell you clearly that we, the Xianbei people, can dominate the world without stirrups!"
