Chapter Eighty-Three: Casting
In fact, saddles, stirrups, and horseshoes are all very simple things, and the reason why Hu Hai wanted to find a skilled craftsman to create them was because he was worried that the ghost drawing drawings he drew would not be understood by ordinary people, and the things he created were plausible.
"Don't ask me what this thing is for, you will naturally know after you build it, but whether you can build it or not." Hu Hai asked.
"Although I don't know who drew this picture, it is extremely shoddy, but the villain thinks that he can still make it according to the picture. It's just that it's best to have a person who makes the map to guide you, so that the villain can fully create what His Majesty wants. The clutch rolled up the white cloth and said affirmatively.
Hu Hai heard that the picture was extremely shoddy, and even if his face was as thick as the city wall, he couldn't help but be a little red at this time, and said embarrassedly: "I will tell you what kind of appearance this thing will be, you don't have to worry." ”
Zhang Han and the others, who originally saw this picture, still despised in their hearts which guy had drawn such a clumsy sketch, but now when they heard Hu Hai's words, they immediately heard that this picture was originally drawn by His Majesty the Emperor.
Suddenly, everyone couldn't help but sneer in their hearts, despising Your Majesty, sin!
"Huh? This picture turned out to be drawn by His Majesty. Such a work of genius, Your Majesty is really a great talent. This is obviously deliberately harming Hu Hai, and at this moment, his eyes widened as if he suddenly realized, and he said innocently.
When Hu Hai heard his sentence "Your Majesty is really a great talent", his head was full of black lines, did Nima have you such a damaging brother as the emperor? Looking at the clutch with an innocent expression, Hu Hai hated that it was itchy teeth, and I couldn't deal with a dead old man.
"Your Majesty, your majesty has brought your majesty's imperial horse."
At this time, Long Huang came in to report, which made Hu Hai feel relieved. He had never found that Long Huang looked so pleasing to the eye, so he smiled at Long Huang very brightly. And Long Huang was inexplicably laughed by Hu Hai, and he was worried in his heart.
"Long Huang, you take a few people to rub the horse's hoof prints with ink, I will be useful." Hu Hai said with a smile.
"Whoa!"
After a while, Long Huang brought a white cloth with a horseshoe print and handed it to Hu Hai.
"Leave the old man, if you look at this hoof print, you will know what I want you to build." Hu Hai pointed to the hoof prints and said to the clutch.
Hu Hai's clutch from the old scream was full of joy, and he hurriedly came over, looked at the black hoof prints on the white cloth, and then looked at the sketch drawn by Hu Hai on the white cloth in his hand, and suddenly turned to Hu Hai and said,
"Your Majesty is truly talented! The villain knows what this thing is for. ”
It's Nima again, you still say you're addicted, aren't you? Hu Hai said with a dark face: "Oh? Do you know what this thing is for? ”
"Your Majesty must have wanted to create an iron palm that could be worn on the horse's hooves, so that the horse could wear shoes just like us, so that the horse could gallop on any road without worrying about broken legs." Clutch didn't pay attention to Hu Hai's black face, and said proudly.
Zhang Han and Ying Yi next to them heard the painting of the clutch, and their eyes suddenly lit up, they were different from these craftsmen, and the first thing that came to mind was the role of such a thing in the military.
Before the appearance of horseshoes, the cavalry of any country would worry that the horses would step on stones or other hard objects during the run and crack the horses' hooves, causing the horse's legs to break, which also greatly reduced the frequency of cavalry use, resulting in cavalry can only be used as an auxiliary force at the beginning of its establishment.
If it is really as the clutch said, His Majesty wants to build it for putting shoes on the horse's hooves, then in the future, the cavalry of Daqin will not have to worry about any road conditions and terrain, and can fight in any place suitable for cavalry combat as they like, without worrying about the horse's hooves cracking and breaking legs.
In this way, the cavalry will definitely become the main combat arm in the future, and there will be no need to cooperate with the infantry as it does now. And Great Qin has a large number of excellent war horses, and the Qin people themselves are good at riding and shooting.
Thinking of this, Zhang Han and Ying Yi couldn't help but glance at each other, seeing the excitement and heat in each other's eyes, they immediately knew that the other party must have also thought of the role of this thing, and couldn't help but quickly prick up their ears and listen to Hu Hai and Clutch talking.
"But Your Majesty, with all due respect to the villain, if this horse's hoof were driven into it with such a sharp nail, would it be wasted directly?" Clutch wondered when he saw those nails.
"Don't worry about this old man, as long as the nails are not too long, they will definitely not hurt the horse's hooves." Hu Hai was confident, and the old man Nima really could see what this thing was for.
The horse's hooves are made up of two layers, the one that touches the ground is a layer of hard keratin about two or three centimeters thick, and the top layer is [***]. And if you nail the horse's hoof into the horse's hooves, as long as the nails are not too long, it will not hurt the horse's hooves at all, and the horse will not feel pain.
Hu Hai is still very clear about this, because in his previous life, his family was rural, and the ox paw also had to be nailed with iron palms, and the cow's hooves were basically the same as the horse's hooves.
Of course, Hu Hai naturally couldn't tell them these things, or it would be a trouble to explain them.
"Your Majesty said so, then the villain will not be worried. Hey? Clutch took the picture drawn by Hu Hai and looked at it for a while, and then looked at the horses led by the forbidden army outside the door and exclaimed, "Your Majesty, this thing is also for horses?" ”
Hu Hai nodded with a smile and said, "Lilao is really amazing, I thought of it so quickly." Then Hu Hai changed his words, "Win one, today it is said that the people present will order Longwei to register and make a book, and the matter must not be leaked, and there will be no forgiveness for violators!" ”
"Whoa!" Win a heart, answer the way.
"Leaving the elder, these two things will be dedicated to my Great Qin cavalry. It can be seen as two things, which I call saddle and stirrup. The saddle is to allow my Great Qin cavalry to better fight on horseback, without worrying about being thrown off the horse at any time;
And the stirrups can allow my Great Qin soldiers to better fight on the war horses, without worrying about their feet hanging in the air and having nowhere to exert their strength; As for the iron ring, I call it a horseshoe or a horseshoe, presumably the role of this thing does not need to be said, and the old man and all Aiqing also understand it. ”
Hu Hai told him to win one and said the role of these three things in one breath.
Zhang Han and Ying Yi could no longer maintain their composure at this moment, they knew better than anyone that if these three things that Hu Hai said were cast to equip Daqin's cavalry, then the significance to Daqin would be no less than that of Hu Hai being awakened by the First Emperor before.
The two of them no longer dared to despise the clumsy sketch drawn by Hu Hai casually at this moment, staring at the sketch still in the clutch hand with burning eyes, their eyes were shining, and they couldn't wait to swallow the drawing directly.
Hearing Hu Hai's explanation, he looked at the smooth horse's back, then looked at the drawings in his hand, and said to Hu Hai deeply: "Your Majesty's whimsical ideas are like gods." Your Majesty! ”
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
Zhang Han, Ying Yi and the others shouted to Hu Hai in unison.
"Everyone, love Qing Ping. In that case, let's start casting when you are old. ”
"The villain obeys!"
