"Is it true that the war horse will not be able to go to the battlefield a few times, or even just run a little more, and will have to be abandoned because the hooves are too badly worn or injured?" Lin Sen smiled at Cheng Huaiyu, and then asked proudly.

"Yes, this is the case with many war horses, so even if there are not many Datang horses, it is enough to replenish many war horses before each big war.

And it's easy to get hurt when you walk on mountain roads, so you have to be careful with your horses on the way back. That's why I'm going to have more horses for you, and it's really good to change them if they're injured. Cheng Yanjin nodded affirmatively and replied.

"Then if I have a way to greatly reduce this situation, not only let them walk on mountain roads not easily get injured, but also on the battlefield will not lose their hooves because they step on the blade, and they will not retire early because their hooves are worn out, then can this method be exchanged for a lot of good things?" Lin Sen continued to hang Cheng Biting Jin's appetite.

"Of course, if there is such a method, the value will definitely not be worse than that silage, and you will definitely be credited." Cheng Yanjin replied patiently.

"Okay, then it's decided, I'll sacrifice this method, and just reward more land.

Hehe, this should be able to allow all the farmers to have land to plant. Lin Sen said proudly.

"You kid haven't told me what the hell is going on?" Cheng Yanjin frowned unhappily, and said angrily.

"Hehe, patronize and be happy." Lin Sen touched his head and said a little embarrassed.

"In fact, this method is very simple, as long as you put shoes on the war horse, it will be over, everyone knows that wearing shoes does not grind your feet, of course war horses can also be." Before Cheng bit the blonde and went crazy, Lin Sen hurriedly began to explain.

"I thought you had some tricks, I didn't think about this idea before, leather boots are not boots for war horses, but this thing is too durable, it's not easy to fix, and it falls off after a few runs.

Sometimes it happens that the horse slips and falls, so unless you want to raid the enemy and need someone to wrap the horse's hooves, no one is happy to use this thing. Cheng Yanjin said with some disdain.

"Well, that's not what I'm talking about." Lin Sen waved his hand helplessly and said.

It's not difficult for him to understand why there are horses that stumble on their front hooves, think about the pets in later generations when they first started to wear small boots, it's normal to fall from time to time, relatively speaking, they are not very tall, so it's not difficult to imagine what the taller war horses will do.

But with the size of a war horse, it would be too hard to fall like this, especially on the battlefield, if you fall down, you basically don't expect to get up, either your head is picked off by the enemy, or you are simply trampled into meat sauce by your own people. Then this kind of thing that may cost one's life at any time, naturally no one wants to use it.

"The thing I think of is called a horseshoe, as the name suggests, it is to make a piece of iron and nail it under the feet of war horses, and their hooves are all cuticles, and it won't hurt anyway.

Instead of repairing a thick layer every year, it is better to simply nail such an iron horseshoe, how wear-resistant this thing is, and if it is fixed with iron nails, you don't have to worry about it falling, it can be said that the problem is solved once and for all.

If it's really useful or bad, just change it to an iron horseshoe, or simply add a new one, isn't it much easier?

And since this thing is made of iron, even if you kick it on a stone or a blade, you don't have to worry about hurting the horseshoe, and if you give the enemy a hoof, the lethality will be greatly increased. ”

Lin Sen confidently introduced, while also holding a pen and paper and began to draw the shape of the horseshoe, as long as the shape is simply outlined, it is still easy to understand.

His mount, the takin, has hooves similar to that of a goat, which is very wear-resistant, and at the same time has a strong grip, even if he walks on the mountain, it is like walking on the ground, so he has never thought of the horsehoe, and he still remembered it when he saw the war horses that were about to belong to him.

"Actually, it's just an iron bar bent on the line, this thing doesn't need more iron, and it's light enough, as long as the war horse gets used to it a little, there will be no danger of the horse stumbling on the front hoof, with this thing, maybe it can run faster, it's not easy to slip." Lin Sen proudly pointed to his work and continued to introduce its advantages.

"Okay, we'll know if we succeed or not. I'll tell the blacksmith in the house to do it. Cheng Yanjin finished speaking a little eagerly, dragged the schematic diagram in Lin Sen's hand and left, but gave Lin Sen and Cheng Huaiyu a chance to be alone.

Under the urging of Cheng Yanjin, his family's blacksmith quickly completed the creation of the horseshoe, and the general who is usually responsible for repairing the horseshoes of the family's war horses has already brought a full set of things and is waiting.

"I don't think it's better to be face down?" Lin Sen said to Cheng Biting Jin, who was holding the horseshoe and comparing it there.

"Well, I think it's better like this, too." Cheng Biting Jin turned the horseshoe over without blushing at all.

After a "clanging" sound, the four horseshoes were quickly fixed to Cheng Yanjin's warhorse, and then he was taken away by him, who had already been a little impatient.

Listening carefully to the crisp tapping sound of the horse's paw falling on the stone slab, and then paying attention to the posture of the war horse, Cheng Yanjin nodded with satisfaction.

"Go get some broken swords to pave this." Cheng Yanjin commanded again, and soon the field was paved with various weapons.

He personally led the somewhat reluctant war horse back and forth from above, and then grabbed the horse's hooves and examined them carefully.

"Okay, good, good, this method is really good......" Cheng Yanjin was very excited and praised continuously.

"That's a recipe, right?" Lin Sen raised his eyebrows triumphantly.

"Good boy, this credit can't outrun you, don't worry." Cheng Yanjin nodded with a smile and said.

"Naturally, I don't have to say that, besides, do you nail the horseshoe of my more than 300 war horses first? I'm in a hurry to use it. Lin Sen also learned Cheng Jin's two-skinned face.

The Lin family's Zhuangzi is not as convenient as the Cheng family, you can find blacksmiths and iron materials at any time, just the iron materials needed by these horsesshoes are a bit difficult for Lin Sen, it is better to take advantage of the Cheng family, anyway, do you hope to become a family, this is called fertilizer and water do not flow into outsiders' fields.

"You kid......" Cheng Yanjin was amused by Lin Sen, but he didn't expect that he would also try to be robbed one day. Okay, it's cheaper for you this time. ”

Cheng Yanjin is naturally responsible for doing the work, and this person is already good at this kind of work, so he doesn't have to worry that he will swallow Lin Sen's credit.

It's been two days since he came out, Lin Sen is a little worried about the situation at home, in case the situation changes when he is not there, so he hurriedly said goodbye to the Cheng family, rode the takin and ran back, as for those war horses, the Cheng family will naturally send someone to send them over.
