Coming out of the locker room, the two horses had already been led in front of Li Ke, and Li Ke first asked Li Chengqian to explain the stirrups, Takahashi saddles, and so on.

For example, the stirrups and saddles of the nomads are also available, but they are all wooden, and Li Ke naturally uses iron directly, and the Takahashi saddle also has wood but the skeleton is steel, and then wrapped in leather and so on.

After finishing talking to Li Chengqian, Li Ke simply led the horse and let Li Chengqian get on the horse by himself, Li Chengqian was just lame, not muscle weakness, he stepped on the stirrup with one foot skillfully turned over on the horse, and then the other foot also stepped on the stirrup.

Feeling the seemingly no different Takahashi saddle and the iron stirrups on both sides, Li Chengqian basically didn't feel any difference in his control of the horses, and he could feel that with this kind of hard stirrups, his legs could assist his feet to exert force.

"How?" Li Ke asked with a smile.

"It really doesn't feel like a problem." Li Chengqian nodded.

Li Ke also turned over directly on the horse next to him, and the guard who led the horse next to him let go of the horse, and the two of them did not run directly, but drove the horse to start strolling into the middle of the field. Changle and the others were slow to change their clothes, so they walked a few laps first.

"Tuyuhun, I didn't understand the letter you wrote before, Murong Shun is fine?" Li Chengqian asked curiously on his horse.

"What could be the problem?" Li Ke also told Li Chengqian about his strategy for Tubo, and then he spoke: "Murong Shun's cavalry is not too threatening, as long as he is not stupid enough to charge into the enemy's position, it will be fine." ”

"Indeed, Tubo is not even as good as Datang in this regard. There is no way to deal with cavalry. Li Chengqian thought about it and nodded.

In fact, many people also have some misunderstandings about Tibet, many tribes in Tibet are nomads, and at the same time, there are some settled tribes in Tibet, but these tribes are different from Tuyuhun and Western Turks.

That is, there are almost no cavalry in Tibet, to be precise, there are no good horse breeds in Tibet, so they have no combat cavalry, their cavalry has no combat effectiveness at all, and horses are more used to hurry.

In fact, the rise of Tubo is not because of how powerful Songtsen Gampo is, to be precise, the rise of Tubo is also indispensable, the earth entered a warm period during the Sui and Tang dynasties, and a lot of snow on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau melted rapidly, and there were conditions to begin to support large-scale reclamation.

During the Jin Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty, many areas that could be reclaimed in Tibet were covered with ice and snow, and the annual melting time was extremely short, which made it impossible to grow crops at all, and the water flow of some rivers was not enough, and there was not much arable land that could be cultivated along the rivers.

The main force of the Tibetan army is infantry, limited by the breed of horses, and the combat mode of the Tibetan cavalry is also dismounted and infantry.

That's right, the horses of Tibet were basically used for chaste. According to the "New Tang Dynasty Book", the Tibetan army "will dismount and march in battle, and if it dies, it will be reaped, and it will not retreat."

In other words, the Tubo army can be said to be infantry on horseback, so Li Ke is not worried that Murong Shun's cavalry will be surrounded and suppressed by the Tubo army, as long as he himself is not stupid, this is also one of the reasons why Li Ke sent cavalry.

For example, iron tools and the like can still be solved, but it is impossible for Li Ke to sell horse breeds to Tubo, and Tubo has no chance to get excellent horse breeds from other places.

At present, after Li Ke took control of Xizhou, a large number of excellent Qinghai horses will be bred in horse farms in the plateau area, such as the Shandan Military Horse Farm at an altitude of 2,900 to 5,000 meters.

And the domesticated war horses have also begun to feed them salt in an orderly manner, and even Li Ke has asked people to compare and feed them separately.

For example, a group of war horses let it lick the original coarse salt by itself, another part is to lick the refined salt sold by Li Ke, and some are according to the war horse breeding books that Li Ke took out, and the salt is fed regularly and reasonably every day.

Anyway, it is through different controlled tests to see if you can feed better war horses.

"Well, as long as they don't have cavalry in their hands, even after their leather armor rate increases, there is basically no threat to my Datang." Li Ke nodded. "Since we have talked about this matter, the strategy of Tubo's side, big brother, you still need to have a recital, if you want to ask anything, just ask directly, and then I will tell you, you write a recital and put it forward in the court when the time comes."

"Why me?" Li Chengqian was a little baffled.

"Of course you need prestige, it's good that you have a higher prestige as a prince." Li Ke nodded.

Li Chengqian: "......" To be honest, he is also a little speechless, how to say this, although the prince and the emperor are father and son, but sometimes the prestige of the prince is too high, and the emperor is also worried.

"It's okay, big brother, don't worry, I've already told my father, anyway, my father doesn't care, I guess you don't care, besides, prestige, at present, no matter how high your prestige is, it can't be higher than your father, so don't worry." Li Ke said with a smile.

Li Chengqian looked at Li Ke, his expression was somewhat strange: "Why do I always feel that you are like raising a child." ”

"Delusion, big brother, you are all delusion." Li Ke directly denied it.

"The problem is, you're making me helpless like this." Li Chengqian was a little speechless, although this is a good thing, but I don't know why it feels so awkward? If you want to say that Li Ke is one of his advisers or something, Li Chengqian will not hesitate at all and directly handle this matter.

But you said that Li Ke had already done all this thing, and then asked him to write this recital to rein in this reputation, Li Chengqian thought that something was wrong.

"This is obviously all your credit, why is my eldest brother taking this reputation? I'm already in the position of the crown prince now, can I still rob you of the credit of this brother? I don't do that. Li Chengqian thought about it, and then simply refused.

"Big brother, I'm doing this for your good." Li Ke said.

Li Chengqian: "......" is a good word, why does it sound so uncomfortable?

"Okay, okay, if you don't want to do this, then I can't go against your principles, big brother, then I'll give you another idea, do you think it's okay?" Li Ke asked.

"You say." Li Chengqian was a little curious, he was not curious about others, but curious about how many ideas Li Ke had in his head, these other people said that Li Ke was a reckless man, but have you ever seen such a smart reckless man?

"Soldiers." Li Ke said with a smile.

"Huh?" Li Chengqian was a little puzzled.

"The so-called power comes out of the barrel of a gun, and if you control the army, you will control the foundation of stability in the world, so you can build your reputation among the government soldiers." Li Ke snapped his fingers and said with a smile.
