There were no saddles in this era, but there were saddle pads, also called soft saddles.

The terracotta warriors and horses of Qin Shi Huang in later generations were unearthed, and those terracotta warriors could be seen immediately in the soft saddle.

The saddle given to Hakunaka is a Takahashi saddle, which is used with stirrups, and the shape is very different from that of ordinary saddle pads.

Bai Zhong explained: "This is something I recently came up with based on the saddle pad, a thing called a saddle, which was temporarily made for me by the people on the ranch, and with this saddle, it will be easier to ride the horse." ”

"Does this really work?"

Wang Jian looked around in disbelief.

Wang Ben proposed: "Why don't you find someone to try?" ”

"You, come here!"

Wang Jian felt that it made sense, swept his gaze, and randomly found a soldier on duty.

"I've seen the General!"

The soldier ran over and respected.

Wang Jian asked, "Can you ride a horse?" ”

The soldier said, "I've learned a little bit before, but I'm not very good at it." ”

Bai Zhong said: "Now you will, get on the horse and give it a try, my mount is not irritable, and will not reject people who are not familiar with it, you can get on the horse and run a lap." ”

"Good...... Good! ”

The soldier suddenly became frightened.

He had learned to ride horses, and of course he knew that when a horse runs, it is easy to throw people down, and when it is fast, it will hurt very badly.

General Bai actually allowed himself to run a lap, and he had to obey again and sit carefully on horseback.

The soldier was also curious about this saddle, which, unlike ordinary soft saddles, had just sat down and had his feet on the stirrups without a master's lesson.

Without warning, Bai Zhong slapped the horse's ass hard.

The horse roared, let go of its hooves and ran out, the soldier clutching the reins with both hands, mentally prepared to fall, but after running out, what he feared did not happen.

It's quite firm to sit in this saddle, and there are stirrups that hold your legs in place, so you can also hold your body in place.

"You won't fall?"

When Wang Jian and his son saw this scene, they were full of interest in the saddle.

A soldier who is not very good at riding a horse can also run on a horse.

If they have this saddle pad, the combat ability of their cavalry can be greatly improved in the future, even if they encounter the cavalry under the command of Li Mu, they will also have the ability to fight.

The soldier ran around the school yard and soon returned.

Bai Zhong picked up an ordinary bow and a few arrows, and asked, "Do you know how to shoot arrows?" ”

"Yes!"

The soldier responded.

"Hold on, shoot an arrow while running."

Bai Zhong threw all the bows and arrows to him.

The soldier could only bite the bullet, and the horse ran out quickly again, and then carefully picked up the bow and arrows and drew the bow, and found that his hands had not fallen off the reins.

He also really drew his bow and shot an arrow at a place where there was no one, barely shooting.

In the end, it worked.

The soldier looked at his hands in disbelief.

What just happened?

"Ride and shoot!"

These two words came out of the mouths of Wang Jian and his son at the same time.

It's really riding shooting.

Among their seven kingdoms, only the cavalry under Li Mu of Zhao State can do cavalry shooting, but that is the ability that has been trained in the process of fighting the Xiongnu all year round.

It can be mounted and arched, but it is a great killer weapon for cavalry.

At the beginning, Huan Qi was defeated so quickly, but Li Mu led the cavalry to catch up and shoot most of the Qin soldiers with his cavalry.

Now a soldier who is not very good at riding a horse can barely do horse shooting.

If it is a professionally trained cavalry, it will be more effective when riding and shooting.

The soldier ran around again, and when he came back from his horse, he was still in a very confused state, and he couldn't believe that the person just now was him.

"Alright, you go down!"

Bai Zhong waved his hand, let the soldiers leave first, and said, "General, General Wang, what do you think?" ”

Wang Ben first asked, "General Bai, tell me, is what we saw just now true?" ”

Bai Zhong smiled: "If General Wang doesn't believe it, you can give it a try." ”

"I believe it!"

Wang Ben didn't believe it, but felt that it was too impossible.

Wang Jian hurriedly asked, "General Bai, can you make this saddle for us?" ”

He could see the military value contained in the saddle.

If Daqin's cavalry had a saddle and fought with the cavalry of Zhao on horseback, it would not be a dream.

"I'm about to give the saddle to the general, to the cavalry of Great Qin."

Bai Zhong said as he took out the crossbow hanging on the side of the saddle and said, "And this thing." ”

"What is this?"

Wang Jian couldn't understand that this crossbow that had been folded and made smaller had a very special shape.

Bai Zhong explained: "This is a very special crossbow, I got it from Han Wangan when I caught him, he said that there is only this one in the world, and I think it can be imitated." ”

Anyway, now that Han Wang'an is gone, Bai Zhong will give Han Wang'an the source of the crossbow, and the appearance of the crossbow will become appropriately reasonable.

Wang Ben was puzzled, at that time in Xinzheng, he couldn't see Bai Zhong take out this bow and crossbow, but before he could ask this question, he saw Bai Zhong open the machine.

The folded bow and crossbow unfolded in an instant, and although the shape was a little smaller than the ordinary one, the change and the structure on it amazed them.

In addition, the shape of this crossbow is completely different from the current standard of the armies of the Seven Kingdoms, which is very special.

"What a magical crossbow, I don't know how powerful it is?"

Wang Jian asked expectantly.

"It's comparable to a nine-stone strong bow!"

Bai Zhong took out a special arrow, loaded it easily, it was more convenient than pulling the bow, looked in one direction, and said, "I'll hit the arrow target in front." ”

The distance of that arrow target, to Bai Zhong's position, was about two hundred and fifty steps.

Bai Zhong simply aimed, and then deducted the bracket.

All they heard was a rapid sound of breaking through the air, and then the sharp arrow hit the target more than two hundred paces away, and even penetrated the target.

Wang Jian shouted: "Take it and take a look." ”

Several soldiers hurried forward and brought the targets and arrows over

Their father and son looked at it for a while, and at the same time excitedly said, "What a strong crossbow." ”

Sure enough, it has the power of a nine-stone strong bow.

Wang Jian asked, "Can General Bai show me?" ”

"General, please!"

Bai Zhong handed it over.

Wang Jian and his son looked at it carefully for a long time, the structure was very complicated, but it was extremely powerful, and the composition of the crossbow was not wood, it was all hard iron, and they couldn't help frowning.

"It shouldn't be easy to imitate one, no wonder Han Wangan said that there is only this one in the world."

Wang Ben didn't bother with the origin of the crossbow anymore, but just sighed that it was difficult to imitate.

Wang Jian agreed: "If General Bai wants to imitate it, it is difficult to imitate even one. ”

"It's really hard, like those knives, I want to use it on the Iron Eagle Sharps first."

Bai Zhong explained: "The iron ore that was built, I discussed it with Wu Lu, and it was basically ready, and then I wanted to dedicate the crossbow and saddle to the king, and after getting the king's consent, I asked the king to ask a group of craftsmen to build it, the saddle is actually fine, it is not difficult to manufacture, the king should agree, but this crossbow may be a little troublesome." ”

Wang Jian nodded in agreement, the saddle can improve the combat ability of the cavalry, the structure is simple, and the manufacturing is easy, so he will definitely get the agreement.

The creation of a crossbow is difficult, it must take a long time, and it will not meet the needs of the war.

Wang Ben asked again: "Why didn't General Bai put this crossbow on the side of Wulu to build it?" ”

Wang Jian thought about the reason for a while, and helped Bai Zhong explain: "The knife can be made on the Wulu side, and those colored glasses can be used to save manpower, material and financial resources for the king, but the crossbow is absolutely not good, General Bai has thought it through." ”
