"This is the design of the horseshoe and stirrups, can you read it?" Lu Chen beckoned the leader of the craftsman to come to the front and opened the drawings to show the two of them.

"My lord, you need a mold for this, right?" Looking at the design drawings drawn by Lu Chen, Liu Laosan, the head of the blacksmith, asked, Liu Laosan is a middle-aged man in his thirties, although he is in his thirties, his face has traces of wind and frost, his sideburns are a little white, he is wearing a washed white patched short jacket, with high sleeves, and two exposed bronze forearms, with hot scars and strong muscles.

"It does need a mold, and the stirrup can be made uniformly, but this horseshoe needs to be corrected according to the shape of each horse's hoof, and the most important thing is this!" Lu Chen pointed to the horseshoe nails on the drawing, the shape of the horseshoe nails is similar to a large pushpin, "This nail must not be longer than an inch and a quarter!" Otherwise, it will hurt the horseshoe! Lu Chen solemnly told Liu Laosan.

"The villain understands, so go back and prepare the mold, try to beat some first, and ask the adults to take a look!" Liu Laosan bowed and saluted.

"Hmmm! Go ahead! I'm going to have to see my big baby's injuries! Lu Chen signaled that Liu Laosan could go and prepare, the craftsman didn't need anything for the time being, only waiting for the horseshoe, stirrups and horseshoe nails to be ready, so Lu Chen was ready to treat his white horse first.

The injury of the white horse is not too serious, but the hooves are split, as long as the chopped place is trimmed off, and then the medicine is applied, the hooves are bandaged, and the white horse is not allowed to exert force, and it will be raised for a period of time, and it can be recovered as before.

It will take a while for the blacksmith to build these horse harnesses, although it is not a big piece, and there are also design drawings, but time is still needed, it just so happened that Li Xiuning's inspection of the camp was not over, and Lu Chen accompanied Li Xiuning to inspect the barracks together.

"Strategist, what advice do you have for this army of this commander?" Li Xiuning asked Lu Chen with a smile as he walked.

"The marshal army is neat and neat, and the army is mighty, not bad!" Lu Chen watched all the way, pondering the military system of the Tang Dynasty all the way.

"Perfunctory!" Li Xiuning glared at Lu Chen directly, "Ben Shuai wants to hear the truth!" Not such flattery! ”

"Then let's talk about it casually, the big handsome right to listen, if there is anything wrong, I hope the big handsome will forgive me!" Lu Chen took a precautionary shot in advance, in case Li Xiuning didn't want to listen to what he said, he would have a room to turn around.

"Ben Shuai is not a person who can't listen to advice, since he takes Mr. Bai as his military advisor, Mr. has nothing to talk about!" Li Xiuning heard the meaning of Lu Chen's words, and said directly with a smile.

"Then it's ugly!" Lu Chen arched his hand and said, "Dashuai, as far as I know, our Datang Dynasty has adopted the government military system, right?" Lu Chen looked at Li Xiuning and asked.

At this time, the two of them had already sat down in a tent, after all, they had been walking for a short time, and they could talk freely while resting.

"Not bad! This method of recruiting soldiers has been used since ancient times! At this time, someone had already brought tea to the two of them, Li Xiuning took a sip of the teacup, and Lu Chen asked him to change a bowl of cold white boiling, which was really unaccustomed to Lu Chen's tea in this era.

To tell the truth, the tea of the Tang Dynasty was boiled tea, simply put, the tea leaves were boiled as soup, salt, seasonings, and milk were put in it.

"And what about the last military service of the previous dynasty?" Lu Chen took Liang Baikai and took a sip and continued to ask.

"No soldiers!" Li Xiuning thought for a moment and said with a somewhat blank expression.

"Why?" Lu Chen continued to guide Li Xiuning, if you want to change the government military system to the recruitment system, Li Xiuning is undoubtedly the best choice, first, Li Xiuning has military power in his hands, and second, Li Xiuning has a high position and has the right to speak, Li Tang is in the world, at least half of it was Li Xiuning who was defeated, so Li Xiuning at this time is basically better than the crown prince Li Jiancheng and the Qin king Li Shimin, because Li Xiuning will not threaten the seat under Li Yuan's buttocks.

"I don't know!" Li Xiuning tilted his head and thought for a long time, but didn't come up with a reason, "I hope Mr. will advise!" Li Xiuning looked at Lu Chen very sincerely.

"To put it bluntly, the government military system is the hereditary military household system, the premise of this system is that the military household has land in their hands, and only when they have land can they have food, can they have enough to eat, and only when they are full can they have the strength to fight, but with the establishment of the dynasty, there will be more and more land annexation..." It would be nice not to rebel! ”

After Lu Chen finished speaking, he looked at Li Xiuning, who still looked thoughtful.

"Ben Shuai understands!" When it was about two quarters of an hour, Li Xiuning suddenly said something, which directly startled Lu Chen, who was drinking water on the side, how could Li Xiuning be surprised.

Because Lu Chen analyzed the reasons for the lack of troops caused by the government military system in the later part of the previous dynasties with Li Xiuning, Li Xiuning is an extremely smart person, and if you think about it in combination with historical facts, isn't it the same as what Lu Chen said, isn't the reason why the Li family's rebellion can be made here? The common people have been forced to have no way to live, can they not rebel?

"Sir, do you have a way to crack it?" Li Xiuning got up directly and asked respectfully at Lu Chen.

Li Xiuning directly frightened Lu Chen to jump up from the chair and hide to the side, don't say anything, are modern people still afraid of giving courtesy? Don't forget, this is the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, and it was Princess Li Xiuning of Pingyang who gave Lu Chen a gift, what kind of character is this, a character above tens of thousands of people under one person, this will be spread out, and Lu Chen will be charged with a big crime of disrespect, and Li Yuan can directly order him to be killed!

"Your Highness can be tormented!" Lu Chen flashed Li Xiuning's salute, and hurriedly bowed and said in return.

"I hope Mr. will teach me how to crack it! Protect my Datang Foundation! Li Xiuning said in a very sincere tone.

"It's not that there is no way to crack it, but it is not suitable to use it now, after all, the Tang Dynasty was first established, and the military system of this government can be used for a while, and the world is undecided, and the world is decided, and then it is too late to crack the law, at this moment, if His Royal Highness proposes to change the military system, I am afraid that it will make the court unstable, not to mention, the family is also eyeing the tiger, those family gate lords can not care about these, as long as their interests are harmed, they dare to rebel, and now the Tang Dynasty still relies on these families to stabilize the court, so His Royal Highness still needs to be patient!" Lu Chen showed a strategizing appearance, so he sent him a goose feather fan in his hand, and then shouted: "I am Zhuge Wuhou!" ”
