Chapter 337: A Minor Change
What can paper and pen do?
For the lord of Nanming, it is to control the life and death of others. For high-ranking officials and nobles, it is power, for businessmen, it is wealth, for literati, it is poetry and songs, and for martial artists, it is military orders and tactics.
But for the sin of heaven, it is to change the world.
Regarding this, the lord of Nanming, who has tasted the sweetness, understands it best.
Tiansin thought for a while, stretched out his little tongue and licked the tip of the brush and said, "Your Majesty, what do you think of the cavalry?" ”
His Majesty didn't understand this and suddenly asked himself again, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Cavalry? Chicken ribs also. Combat is not as good as military vehicles, attack is not as good as crossbow arrows, and the training of a cavalry requires years of accumulation. The horse is the most important weapon in the army, and it is relied on to speed up the march, and it is needed to charge even more when fighting, but unless the gifted can clamp the horse's belly, he can let himself fall off the horse's back lightly, and when the battle is due, there are more people who fall than those who are injured by the sword. However, cavalry is still much more powerful than ordinary infantry, but the effect achieved is not as much as the investment in cultivating a cavalryman and raising a war horse. ”
Heavenly Sin nodded, indeed, this is the truth.
How precious are war horses? The cost of a war horse can even feed four soldiers, plus the blade on the horse is longer, and the cost itself is higher than that of the infantry blade, so the value of the investment is higher.
However, the infantry had a great hidden danger, that is, it was easy to fall down, and even without the help of the other party, only one of the charging cavalry fell off the horse. So in the Great Army, there were significantly more chariots than cavalry, and they were worth a little more.
But the mobility of the combat vehicle was again greatly limited.
Therefore, a qualified cavalryman not only needs excellent skills, but also needs a horse with great spirituality, which can achieve the greatest tacit understanding.
Heavenly Sin smiled and said: "Your Majesty is really to the point, this is indeed the biggest drawback of the cavalry now, and changing these is actually only a very small change to achieve, just ......"
"Just what?!"
His Majesty stood up again, staring at Heavenly Sin with an excited expression.
Who is the sinner? Saying that he can be rescued from the encirclement of 200,000 troops, then he will be rescued, and saying that he has a way to change everyone's lives, he really came up with the refining method of refined salt, and changed a new understanding of the behavior of 'eating' in the entire continent, and it can be said that 'foodie' is cultivated by natural sin.
said that it could resist the three-way attack of the Northern Qi barbarians and the rebellious Ji family, and it could really turn the crisis into safety for Nanming.
said that he wanted to fight against the sudden attack of the west, and he really beat the west away alive.
When he says it, no matter how incredible or braggadocio he says, he can always do it!
Now that he says that a change can change the entire cavalry, then ...... All the Lord of Nanming is concerned about now is what that 'little change' is.
Heavenly Sin sighed and said, "What about this change...... Ben Hou can say it now, and he can also write and draw it in detail, but the result is ...... Whether it's good or bad, Ben Hou can't say it's good. ”
His Majesty wondered: "If a change can increase the value of cavalry, this is already a great good thing, how can it become a bad thing again?" ”
"Because this method is easy to learn and copy, just like Ben Hou can now use a piece of paper to let everyone present understand its construction principle, if the two armies fight, then the enemy can also learn this method immediately, so that the cavalry can be rapidly strengthened." And the reason why it is said that it will turn out to be a bad thing is because...... Your Majesty, Nanming's cavalry has never been the most among the countries in the continent, and it is not even one-tenth of that of the west, if this method is said now, then the final result can only be to make the country from the west stronger. ”
"This ......"
His majesty was entangled, and couldn't help but ask, "Is it really that easy to copy?" ”
Heavenly Sin said: "Originally, every country has skilled craftsmen, and this thing is not too difficult, almost as long as you look at it, you can make eight or nine without leaving ten." ”
His Majesty frowned and said, "That...... Do we know that there is such a good solution, but we can't use it at all? ”
Heavenly Sin said: "Everything in the world, good and bad are often in a thought, the so-called Saion is not blessed, good and bad are not so clearly defined." This is obviously a good thing, but it can bring bad results, and how to use it depends on how we use it. ”
His Majesty said, "Then how should we do it?" ”
"It's very simple, since this method is easy to learn, then ...... Let them learn it, but ...... After we Nanming take advantage of this to achieve a great victory! Since we can only use this advantage once, it means that we need to use it to the fullest!
First of all, we can buy horses, buy horses to the maximum, secretly form cavalry, but not use lightly, we have to wait or create an opportunity, a battlefield, and completely engrave this change in the history of the entire continent, and record this moment of changing history with a war that can change the fate of the entire Southern Ming.
At that time, what will be recorded in the books will always be this earth-shattering battle, but it will not be that small method, and this will also be recorded in the posthumous comments of your lordship. ”
His Majesty pondered for a long time and said, "This is indeed a solution, and now...... A family marquis, I hope to write that method directly, the previous method of refined salt...... But I lost a cherished sister. ”
The meaning is obvious, that is, let Heavenly Sin quickly hand over the things, and don't drag yourself so tormented like last time.
Heavenly Sin smiled: "Okay, since His Highness insists on wanting it." ”
He bowed his head and drew a pattern on silk paper and handed it to the eunuch who came over, who presented it to His Majesty.
His Majesty looked left and right, and after watching it for a long time, he didn't understand what was going on.
I couldn't help but ask, "This...... What is it? ”
Heavenly Sin smiled: "If there is no physical object, His Majesty may not be very easy to understand. ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, and the pure gin jug on the table came into his hand, and the method of onlookers and control was used, and it looked as if he was kneading it on the jug casually, and the jug suddenly turned into plasticine, changing its shape at will.
Eventually, it turned into two strange triangles, hollow and with rings on them.
Heavenly Sin picked up a futon from the table, pulled down two ropes, and tied them directly to the top of the triangle.
Finally, he laboriously put the futon on the back of the remnant red, jumped up directly, his feet just crossed the two triangles, and his feet were slightly clamped on the horse's belly, and the remnant red stood up.
Heavenly Sin said, "Come, move twice." ”
Remnant Red suddenly rose up with his hands, and kicked his front hooves in the air a few times, which looked extremely spectacular.
And the feet of Heavenly Sin have always been in the triangle, and both hands do not hold the horse's mane at all, so they can still sit on the horse's back, holding their arms and laughing softly.
The remnant snort, then landed and snorted.
But the audience was all silent, afraid that if a needle fell to the ground, it would make people's hearts beat wildly.
Everyone was stunned, including the Lord of Nanming.
He was stunned for a long time before he asked in a trembling voice, "Yihuhou, are you ...... How did you come up with it?! ”
The Lord of the Southern Ming Kingdom thought of the benefits of this thing almost instantly.
And...... There are three!
The first benefit is stability, which goes without saying that having a place for the feet to pedal naturally makes the rider more secure on the horse's back.
The second benefit is that you can keep your hands free! If a person wants to avoid being thrown off a horse, he must first clamp the horse's belly hard, and secondly, he must always hold the reins or horse's hair with his hand, which will at least make the rider only use one hand to fight, and in fact, the vast majority of cavalry can only use one-handed weapons, although long enough, but the one-handed strength is weak after all, and the strength is much worse.
The long knife was always the first blade of the cavalry, precisely because it had to be used with one hand.
The third benefit...... In fact, the most important point is that 'there are roots under the feet'! But anyone who practices martial arts knows the meaning of these four words.
When a person is in the air, if his feet are not attached to the earth, he has nowhere to exert his strength. For masters, the power of 'support' should always be greater than the power of 'pressing down', because the maximum force of pressing down is your own weight, while supporting can support 10,000 catties.
When a person is on horseback, the power from the lower plate can only be the buttocks, and how elastic is the buttocks? And how much support? Not to mention the force, even the barely supported can't do it.
But if you have these two pedals under your feet, stepping on them is stepping on the horse itself, and the power will be fed back to the horse's back, and finally supported by the four legs.
This means that a two-legged man becomes a four-legged horse, and a man can borrow horsepower entirely!
And there are too many horses on the mainland, and there are almost fierce beasts, which are extremely strong, but people can't use them. Now this small change can make people fully borrow the power of horses and truly achieve the unity of man and horse......
The impact of this change was so great that the Lord of Nanming couldn't imagine it for a while.
There was only one thought in his mind, and that was that the most powerful cavalry on the entire continent had been mastered by him!
Hundreds of civil and military officials surrounded one after another, looking at the Heavenly Sin who was really riding on horseback, and found that the structure of this thing was too simple, and it was really possible to go back and make it by yourself at a glance.
But...... Why did no one ever think of it?
"Humph! But in this case, the previous blowing of the ceiling is actually not just a simple and outrageous thing? Pediatrics only. ”
Yuwen Changqing originally wanted to let Xue Pan be a gun behind the scenes to deal with Heavenly Sin, but in the blink of an eye, Xue Pan turned out to be a friend of Heavenly Sin, and there was no way, he could only come out by himself and publicly express his disdain for Heavenly Sin.
