However.

He was too far away, even if he ran at great speed, it was quite a distance.

Malaysia went crazy.

It's something that no one can think of.

The old man and others were also shocked.

Li Shimin's eyes widened, the speed of the horse was too fast, and he ran in front of Li Shimin in the blink of an eye.

At the last moment.

The little son opened his hands and protected Li Shimin.

"Damn, bad horses, don't touch your father!!"

The little son gritted his teeth.

The big horse saw the little boy with angry eyes, but the gallop speed began to slow down, and when he was in front of the little son, he had completely stopped.

What's going on!!

Startled!!

Astound!!

Unbelievable!!

Everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them.

Why do horses that are almost crazy suddenly become sensible?

And the next moment,

Something even more shocking happened.

I saw that the big horse's eyes became docile, and he lowered his proud head, and rubbed his head against the little son's small body with his head.

Little Son: ???

Li Shimin: ???

Eldest grandson Wuji everyone: ???

What's going on?!

"Giggle, don't rub it, bad horse, it's really itchy!!"

The little son was itched to death.

And the big horse seemed to be psychic, and he really didn't continue to rub the little son, but began to lick the little cheek with his tongue.

It can be seen that he likes the little son very much.

"What the hell is going on ....... this?!"

Li Shimin was blindfolded.

"Little son, do you know this big horse?!"

Li Shimin couldn't help but ask.

The little son was holding the big horse's head at this time, and said with a sweet smile: "Father, I don't know!" But it's so good, hehe, it was a mistake just now, it's a good horse. ”

Hearing this, the big horse couldn't stop shaking its tail, and seemed to be very happy.

Li Shimin is even more blindsided now.

I don't know the little son, but the big horse stopped because of her, how much I like the little son!!

"Your Majesty, maybe the old man can solve your doubts."

At this time, the old man came over.

Li Shimin's eyes flickered, and he quickly asked, "Then old man, please solve your doubts." ”

The old man laughed, held his beard and said, "These horses were raised by His Highness himself, and I have liked His Highness since I was a child. ”

"Presumably....... it's because of His Royal Highness the little son, and there is also His Highness's smell on his body, that the big horse will be like this."

"Or maybe it's another possibility, when His Royal Highness fed these horses, he revealed to Lao Yu that it was because of His Royal Highness the little son, and when His Royal Highness the little son was older, he could have the experience of riding horses in his childhood."

"Therefore, His Royal Highness has instilled in these horses the idea that His Royal Highness must protect the little son since he was a child, and instilled the concept of people in the horses, which seems to be ethereal, but! The miracle that happened in the Chu Palace, Your Majesty, will there be less?! ”

The voice fell.

The corners of Li Shimin's mouth twitched, this is Kuan'er's masterpiece again!!

For his precious sister.

The old man said two possibilities.

One is because the little son has the smell of King Chu.

The second is the horse that the king of Chu himself prepared for the little son.

No matter which possibility it is, it means that the little son is the most beloved sister of the King of Chu.

Because of the horse, Li Shimin, who saw that it was his father, was on a rampage, but when he saw his sister and son, he stopped.

This gap ......

It's not a big deal.

Li Shimin's heart was full of complexity, and he couldn't tell whether he was helpless or angry.

Helplessly, it seems that the king of Chu does not treat him as a family member.

The first person who was angry with the favor of his baby daughter Xiao Zizi was undisputed and snatched away by the King of Chu.

"Squeak"

At this moment, the gate of the adjacent stable was also opened.

Another big horse ran out.

Everyone in Malaysia originally saw it, and they were also in a state of madness.

But at this time, he ran happily in front of the little son, and kept rubbing the little boy with his horse's head, and the little boy was itching and laughing.

See this scene.

Everyone understood that this was not a simple small probability event, but that all the horses were cultivated by the King of Chu and liked the little sons very much.

"Hee-hee, father, they all like their sons so much!!"

The little son was very happy.

Li Shimin rubbed his head with a headache and said, "Little son, can you let them lift their feet, my father wants to see what is underneath." ”

"Yes, yes! No problem!! ”

The little son agreed with joy, and then said in a milky voice: "Good horse, lift your feet." ”

Although it was human language, the white horse really lifted its feet.

When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but exclaim, this spirituality is absolutely amazing!!

Li Shimin cleaned up his complicated emotions and went to look at the horse's feet.

The horse's hooves were bigger on the iron blocks.

This......

Li Shimin didn't know what to say at all.

The old man watched from a distance.

He now knew what the group was looking for.

Horseshoe!!

Horseshoe for sure!!

I thought it was some other treasure.

The old man was a little disappointed.

Horseshoes, His Royal Highness has long been popularized in the Chu Palace, and all of His Royal Highness's horses are ordered with horseshoes.

He had known for a long time.

Even, His Royal Highness has performed the installation of horseshoes on the spot.

The old man had long been surprised, but he didn't expect that this group of the most powerful people in the Tang Dynasty was so uninformed......

I also let myself worry about it for a while.

This horseshoe, not such a valuable thing, will be found when you find it.

The old man shook his head and easily made it to the grinding plate.

In front, the eldest grandson Wuji looked at Li Shimin blankly and said, "Your Majesty, what is this?" ”

"How....... how can it be pressed on the horse's hoof? How is this done?! ”

Li Shimin turned his head and glanced at him.

This Nima, if I knew, would still be here to study with you guys?

Li Shimin swallowed his saliva and shook his head.

Everyone felt the hard tentacles of the iron on their fingertips, you look at me, I look at you, they are all stunned.

Although they are recognized as the most intelligent beings in Datang, they can't think of what this thing is.

What is this......

They can't understand it.

After all, before this, no one had thought that there was such a thing as a horseshoe.

Even this kind of idea and concept has never appeared.

Shoe a horse?

If it weren't for today's joke from the little son, they would not have thought of this even if they had been thinking about it for eight lifetimes.

Because, in their thinking, putting shoes on a horse is equivalent to a great absurdity.

Definitely wouldn't have thought of it!!

If the little son didn't keep talking, Li Shimin wouldn't have come over to investigate like a nervous person.

But I didn't expect to see something different.

Several people gathered around the horse's hooves, scratching their heads, their faces pained.

There is really no way for them to solve this puzzle, let alone figure out what these pieces of iron on the horse's hooves are, and what they are for.

"Old gentleman."

At this time, suddenly, Li Shimin stood up and looked at the old man of the Chu Palace.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?" The old man asked with a smile.

".......Do you know what this thing is?"

Li Shimin's eyes flashed with expectation.

When the eldest grandson Wuji and Du Ruhui heard this, they all looked at the old man.

Here, I guess there is only one person who can know.

If he didn't know, then he could only wait for the King of Chu to come back.

However, the old man's extremely frank answer made them slightly stunned.

"The old man naturally knows."

Six words.

It's simple, it's confident, it's calm.

But all of a sudden, their brains were a little starved of oxygen.

cough cough cough ......

This Nima ......

I've been studying here for a long time, I'm confused, I don't have any clue, you always know what this thing is, why don't you talk about it?!

Just watching us guess and be in a hurry?!

Li Shimin also didn't expect that the old man didn't have anything to hide, so he said it.

Hula......

Li Shimin rushed over in a hurry.

grabbed the old butler's arm.

"What is it?!"

"What the hell is this, old sir?!"

Li Shimin stared straight into the eyes of the old butler.

The old butler smiled and said lightly: "Your Majesty, these are the shoes of the war horse." ”

War horses' shoes?!

It's really the same as what the little son said!!

Li Shimin's eyes contracted tightly.

Blood pressure rushed up all at once.

Is this really a shoe for a war horse?

Damn it!!

Just now he really thought that the little son was just casually talking.

But......

Who would have thought of the horses of the Chu Palace. Really all in shoes.

Is this the Chu Palace?!

Terrifying!

Even the horses have shoes to wear.

"What's ....... use for this thing?"

After a moment of slight silence, Li Shimin's voice suddenly trembled, and he asked word by word with some trembling.

Li Shimin's child's hole began to shrink.

In fact, when he asked this sentence, he already had a bold guess in his heart.

But without the old man's confirmation, he forced himself to forget all this.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng, Cheng Yanjin and Du Ruhui were all gathered to stare at the old Taoist priest in front of them.

Eyes fiery.

They have a little wisdom, naturally, combined with the hardness of these iron pieces, and think about what the little boy just said about putting shoes on the horses.

Hiss......

Call......

If this is true, the magnitude of the gain brought to Datang can be said to be huge and terrifying.

In an instant, they can think of many, many and many inexhaustible benefits.

Some shortness of breath.

Eyebrows tremble wildly!!

A strange sound came out of his throat.

Expect!!

Looking forward to the old man, say what it does.

The old housekeeper shook his head, seeing that Li Shimin was looking forward to it so much, he didn't play those annoying games, nor did he go around the corner, and said directly: "His Royal Highness this ....... calls him Ma Tieho." ”

"As for the role or something, it's easy to understand, this person puts on shoes, and it doesn't hurt to walk on the road, and he dares to walk a long way casually."

"So, Your Majesty, you see that now the war horses cannot travel far, and the horses that carry goods cannot be loaded with loads, nor can they go too far."

"So what if you also put shoes on the horses? That's what His Highness had in mind when he invented it. ”

"Protecting the horse's hooves with an iron suit and then nailing it to the horse's paw can be used to block many, many losses ....... which, in fact, with a simple calculation, can be seen to make the horse's hooves almost unexposed to any external wear and tear."

"Your Majesty, you can think about it, what kind of stones can be harder than fine iron? Impossible, even if it is a knife, the war horse is not afraid. ”

"Your Highness said, it doesn't matter where it is, as long as you have a horseshoe, it can be said that you are walking on the ground, and when the time comes, even if it is a war, this war horse equipped with a horseshoe can kick a person to death with a direct hoof, it's simple."

"And what you need to do for maintenance is to replace the horseshoe regularly every year."

"What? Isn't there a horsehoe outside? Your Majesty, have you never heard of it before? ”

The old man explained in detail, and then looked at Li Shimin and them with some puzzlement.

Just now he said that it was true, I really thought that this group of people had turned over something good, it turned out to be Ma Tiehoof.

Hasn't this thing been implemented for a long time?

The horses of the entire Chu Wangfu are like this.

Li Shimin: ......

He was suddenly silent.

It's been a long time since I came out.

Isn't there yet?

Haven't you heard of it before?

Three sentences made Li Shimin's heart like a spare sledgehammer smashed several times.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Du Ruhui four people, you look at me, I look at you, the shock on his face, the helplessness in his heart.

This Nima ......

His Royal Highness the King of Chu doesn't tell us, how can we possibly know!

"I don't know this ....... yet."

Li Shimin pursed the corners of his mouth and gritted his teeth and said.

This stinky boy!

How many good things are still in your hands!?

This private money ......

Good boy!

it!

If this horseshoe is spread out and delivered to the people of the world, the promotion of Datang can be said to be huge.

Not to mention anything else, the role of the army alone can be said to be earth-shaking.

The cavalry will usher in another surge in combat power!!

Silence!

Quiet!

Dead silence!

None of them are stupid, they know very well that this thing will help the world.

Horseshoe!

Horseshoe!

Horseshoe!

Hiss......

If horseshoes were used for all the war horses of the Tang Dynasty, the number of cavalry would completely skyrocket by three to four times.

Moreover, the difficult journey that I had always thought was going to be extremely smooth will also become extremely smooth.

Like, Turkic!!

Horses in the Central Plains have grown in the plains since childhood, and the development of horses' hooves is far inferior to that of the Turkic cavalry.

Therefore, the Turks rely on their own super mobility, and the threat to the Tang Dynasty is very heavy.

Moreover, if the Tang army wants to take the initiative, there is almost no hope before this horseshoe.

The place of the Turkic steppe, sharp stones, sand and barbed branches......

No matter what it is, it has a very heavy impact on the Tang cavalry.

But now, as long as you have a horseshoe, you don't have to think about any stones or anything.

Don't worry about the horse's hooves not being able to stand their influence.

Moreover, if the people loaded their horses with horseshoes, the goods could be transported farther, and the movement between the two cities would be smoother and faster.

The life of a horse will also be greatly extended.
