Chapter Twenty-Five: What a Thing Is a Divine Thing
"Dashuai, I'm afraid I have to test a few horses before I can install it for your jade lion!" Although Li Xiuning was a little anxious to install this kind of iron harness for his jade lion, Lu Chen knew that this was just an experiment with Fang Qi's big green horse, even if the craftsmen were all good, but after all, it was the first time to install a horseshoe, and it was necessary to test a few more horses, and with experience, he would install a horseshoe for the jade lion, in case he injured the jade lion, the responsibility would be great.
What Lu Chen said was not unreasonable, so Li Xiuning did not force it, but asked the craftsman to conduct the operation experiment as soon as possible, and the experimental object was naturally the horses of other generals, and the second was Meng Ji, Meng Ji's mount was a black horse, which was fed very well at a glance, and his fur was like black satin, shining in the sun.
After installing the horseshoe, Meng Ji couldn't wait to carry his horse lance and turned on the hurricane mode, at this time Fang Qi had already returned on the big green horse, and after getting off the horse, he ran in front of Lu Chen.
"Strategist, this thing is really a divine thing!" As soon as Fang Qi came to Lu Chen, he turned on the sycophantic mode, and at the same time looked at the other colleagues with a sneering expression, the expression was obviously saying, "Look, how much the military advisor values me, you can't do it."
"That's it! Tell me how it feels. Lu Chen looked at Fang Qi's stunned appearance and asked with a smile, and Li Xiuning was also standing beside Lu Chen, but his face was somewhat unhappy, but his expression was not looking at Fang Qi angry, it seemed that he was more unhappy than being satisfied, waiting for Fang Qi's report.
"Go back to the commander, military advisor!" Hearing Lu Chen's words, and seeing Li Xiuning's somewhat unhappy face, Fang Qi hurriedly arched his hand and said, "This iron horse harness is really a divine object, and the last general is by no means nonsense, riding on a horse, stepping on the stirrup does have a feeling of walking on the ground, and the force is more sufficient, and after the big green horse is installed with a horseshoe, it can run freely, and the sharp gravel that needed to be carefully avoided before can be ignored since the horseshoe is installed!" ”
"Hmm!" Hearing Fang Qi's report, Li Xiuning nodded, it was indeed similar to what he had visually inspected, which increased Li Xiuning's eagerness to install a horseshoe for his jade lion.
"He Panren!" Li Xiuning signaled that Fang Qi could retreat, Fang Qi turned around and went to a group of generals and began to preach how good the iron harness was, and Li Xiuning directly summoned He Panren.
"The last general!" With Li Xiuning's call, He Panren, who had been standing behind Li Xiuning, turned out.
"This thing must not be passed on, these craftsmen involved in the production must be closely controlled!" Li Xiuning told He Panren with a serious face.
"The last general commands!" He Panren received the order and turned around to arrange for people.
"You don't have to be so nervous, right? Isn't this just a harness? Lu Chen was a little confused by Li Xiuning's arrangement, what impact can an iron harness have, sooner or later the whole world will have to use this thing, although the horseshoe appeared in the Central Plains was in the Southern Song Dynasty, he just made this thing a hundred years in advance, so he wouldn't make such a fuss.
"Strategist, you don't know the impact of this thing on the war!" Li Xiuning looked at Lu Chen and said with a smile, it seems that there are times when he can't understand as a military advisor, Li Xiuning smiled a little proudly.
Although Li Xiuning only mentioned such a sentence, Lu Chen instantly understood why Li Xiuning attached so much importance to iron horse harness, this epoch-making thing has a huge impact on the strategic significance of this cold weapon era, because after the appearance of this thing, the cavalry no longer has to be one person with two horsemen or one person with three horsemen, of course, except for long-distance running with prepared horses, and the requirements for road conditions will be greatly reduced, which is equivalent to the original cavalry regiment, which can directly recruit cavalry into two or three cavalry regiments.
Because Lu Chen was still immersed in the thinking of later generations, when he changed to this era, he immediately understood the joint.
"Got it down!" Without waiting for Li Xiuning to speak again, Lu Chen said directly, "But, shouldn't this matter be reported to the imperial court?" Lu Chen looked at Li Xiuning with some doubts, obviously this girl didn't want to tell Li Yuan about this.
"Reporting to the court? Hum! Hearing Lu Chen's words, Li Xiuning snorted coldly directly, "Report to the imperial court, don't you know about the family gate?" I'm just afraid when the time comes..."Li Xiuning didn't say anything at this point.
And Lu Chen naturally understood the meaning of Li Xiuning's words, as long as the family gate valve knows these things, there will be this thing all over the world at that time, and it doesn't matter who becomes the emperor to the family door valve, as long as it doesn't hurt their interests, this is the view of the family door valve.
"But, Marshal, Liu Laosan told me just now that there is no shortage of iron in the army, not to mention, I think that tying stirrups with ropes is never a way, and it still needs to be matched!" Lu Chen looked at Li Xiuning and directly shifted the topic to iron materials.
"The matter of iron materials, this commander will solve it, but what does it mean that the military advisor refers to the supporting facilities?" Li Xiuning didn't know what Lu Chen was going to do, but an iron harness had already opened Li Xiuning's eyes, but he didn't expect Lu Chen to continue to renovate things, he really picked up a treasure, Li Xiuning looked at Lu Chen's handsome face, and was secretly proud in his heart.
"Oh! It's just that a strap is designed under it, which just matches the stirrups! Lu Chen said with a smile, "Actually, it's a very simple thing, but it needs to be tested!" ”
"In this barracks, if there are military divisions who need them, they can be deployed by themselves!" As soon as Li Xiuning said a word, he directly delegated power to Lu Chen, which means that in my barracks, you can toss casually.
"I don't need too many people, one Liu Laosan, it's fine, if the test is completed, then it can be promoted, just like this iron horse harness!" Lu Chen said with a smile, Lu Chen was still quite moved by Li Xiuning's trust.
"Liu Laosan!" Lu Chen greeted Liu Laosan, who was learning to nail horseshoes with the craftsman.
"Hey! My lord! Hearing Lu Chen's call, Liu Laosan ran over.
"Take me to your blacksmith furnace and you can help me build something!" Lu Chen looked at Liu Laosan and said.
"Oops! Don't step on the ground, my blacksmith's shack is dirty and messy, don't dirty the clothes of adults, what do you want, just tell the little ones! Liu Laosan heard that Lu Chen was going to the blacksmith furnace, and hurriedly said in fear.
"What is noble, I don't watch you fight, do you know how to do it?" Lu Chen glanced at Liu Laosan directly, and said that people are old and slippery, and this Liu Laosan is also an old fritter.
