Chapter 39
Blacksmith shop in the west of Wanxian County.

The fire in the blacksmith's shop was burning brightly. Outside, it was full of spring and the weather was sunny, but inside the shop, it was hot.

More than 100 blacksmiths with their chests exposed and their heads sweating profusely, some worked with bellows, some forged, and some added fire.

Everyone was busy, and the sound of jingling resounded through the sky.

Yuan Yao's expression was frosty, and he stood in front of the blacksmith's shop icily.

Beside Huang Zhong, Gao Chong, Gan Ning, Cheng Yaojin and others watched with fixed eyes, for fear of missing any important discovery.

"Zi..."

A blacksmith dipped a U-shaped piece of iron into the water with tongs. After hearing a sizzling sound, a burst of heat rose from the water, and then the calm water surface turned into blisters.

Behind Yuan Yao, Cheng Yaojin scratched his head with a puzzled face, and asked, "My lord, you asked me to recruit so many blacksmiths just to mess with this iron lump?"

"This thing can neither be used as a hidden weapon, nor can it be used as a weapon. What's the use of fixing it?"

Yuan Yao frowned, and smiled coldly: "You know what!"

Only after having this living treasure, Yuan Yao found that Tian Tian had a lot more fun.

It's no wonder that Cheng Yaojin doesn't understand, even if the most knowledgeable and knowledgeable people of this era come, they probably don't understand the magical function of this iron lump.

This iron lump may seem inconspicuous, but it can greatly improve the durability and load-bearing capacity of the war horse, because - it is a horseshoe!
Like toothbrush and toothpaste, it is beyond time and space, but it is a battlefield weapon.

It is precisely because of the appearance of horseshoes and stirrups that the combat effectiveness of cavalry has made a qualitative leap, so that cavalry has gradually evolved from an auxiliary arm on the battlefield to a main force.

The appearance of horseshoes and stirrups not only contributed to the emergence of heavy cavalry, but also made it possible for cavalry to run long distances continuously.

Although the Xiliang cavalry in the Three Kingdoms period were powerful, they could only exert their power on local battlefields and lacked the ability to stab continuously.

The head blacksmith presented the four cooled U-shaped iron lumps to Yuan Yao, and said respectfully, "Lord Zhou Mu, the horseshoe you want is finished."

Yuan Yao waved his hand and said coldly, "Okay, horseshoeing!"

Four pillars had already been erected outside the blacksmith shop. A white soldier brought a war horse, and four white soldiers had already stepped forward to tie the horse's limbs firmly to the pillars.

A brawny man with a big belly rushed forward, spat in his hand, and turned one of the horse's fore paws. Using the sharp dagger in his hand like flying, he instantly cut off the horse's paw. Cuticles are smooth and smooth.

The blacksmith handed over the horseshoe and the forged iron nails, and the strong man stuck the horseshoe under the horse's hoof and nailed the iron nails one by one.

This was only the first step in Yuan Yao's reform of the cavalry. With horseshoes, how could there be no saddles and stirrups.

carpenter shop.

A sweaty carpenter handed a saddle to Yuan Yao, and said in awe, "Lord Zhou Mu, according to the drawing you drew, the small one has already made a sample, please see what's wrong first? "

Yuan Yao said: "Come here, lead the horse!"

Long ago, white soldiers brought a majestic horse to Yuan Yao. Yuan Yao personally took over the improved saddle from the carpenter and put it on the horse's back. Locked, then turned around and shouted: "Cheng Yaojin!"

Cheng Yaojin's expression froze, and he said solemnly: "Yes!"

"Get on the horse!"

"As ordered."

Cheng Yaojin agreed, took two steps forward, stretched out his hands to support the saddle and turned on the horse, and just sat down, he exclaimed in surprise: "Hey, why is there an extra stirrup here? Haha, but it's more comfortable."

Just as Cheng Yaojin finished speaking, the sound of horseshoes sounded not far away, and Gan Ning appeared perched on top of a tall horse. Gan Ning held a pair of halberds in his hands, and his eyes were full of murderous intent. Cheetah has firmly locked Cheng Yaojin.

"The contest begins!"

Yuan Yao grinned, and a cold flame flashed in his eyes.

At the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, there was only one stirrup on one side, and the purpose was only to make it easier for the knight to get on and off the horse, not to improve the stability and flexibility of the knight on the horse.

In other words, people in this era did not know how important the influence of the stirrups on the combat effectiveness of cavalry was.

"drink!"

"what!"

Cheng Yaojin let out a yell, his eyes ignited with burning killing intent, he rode his horse towards Guan Hai, Gan Ning also yelled, and rode his horse to meet him.

The two horsemen marched towards each other and met each other in an instant, Cheng Yaojin and Gan Ning swung their weapons at the same time, slashing together without any tricks, the clear and clear sound of gold and iron clashing resounded through the sky immediately and lasted for a long time.

The war horses under the two crotches raised their heads at the same time and let out a mournful hiss, passing by each other.

Cheng Yaojin's majestic body trembled violently, as if being devoured by a thunderbolt, his ferocious face turned blood red instantly, Cheng Yaojin almost crushed his steel teeth to swallow the mouthful of hot blood rushing to his throat go back.

However, although Cheng Yaojin vomited blood from Gan Ning, he still rode firmly on the horse.

On the other hand, Gan Ning was not so lucky!

A huge shock force came, and Gan Ning almost fell off the horse. Fortunately, he has been traveling across the river for a long time, and he reacted quickly. At the critical moment, his legs suddenly exerted force, clamping the horse's belly so that he did not fall off the horse's back. down.

However, his good luck didn't end here, the poor war horse was already overwhelmed, and Cheng Yaojin was going to torture him so much, he couldn't hold on any longer, Lilu hissed sadly, and fell to the ground exhausted.

Gan Ning's body was thrown far away and hit the ground with a loud bang.

Huang Zhong and Gao Chong who were onlookers were stunned by this scene. They didn't know that Cheng Yaojin had vomited blood and was injured, but they only saw Gan Ning being swept off the horse by Cheng Yaojin's axe. Wouldn't this be a loss? up?

Cheng Yaojin finally recovered his breath, looked up to the sky and said with a long smile: "Hahaha, Gan Ning, you also have today, happy, happy!"

Gan Ning jumped up from the ground and shouted with a dark face, "It's not counted, let's do it again!"

He has fought with Cheng Yaojin in force, this guy is not his opponent at all except for a few strokes with the three-axe axe, it's strange today, he was knocked off the horse with one move by this guy, he must have met a ghost.

Gan Ning was extremely depressed.

"A man should be able to take it up and let it go. If you lose, you lose. Why don't you dare to admit it?"

"It's not my fault, it's because the mount is overwhelmed. How about after I change the mount?"

"No need to compare!"

Yuan Yao snorted coldly, interrupting the dispute between the two, but his heart was awe-inspiring, a small stirrup could really play an unimaginable role!
Without the help of the horse's stirrups, it would be impossible for Cheng Yaojin to sit safely on the horse's back. He would have been knocked off his horse by Gan Ning long ago. You must know that Gan Ning's basic force is 3 points higher than Cheng Yaojin's.

Who said that a small stone can't smash a big tile vat?
A small stirrup and a small horseshoe are enough to help Yuan Yao build an unprecedentedly powerful iron cavalry!
At that time, wouldn't he be allowed to come and go freely for thousands of miles of rivers and mountains?

Riding and looting is like hunting, who can do anything to him?

By then, it is time to live a good life, drink and drink , Picking up girls, life is full of fun, no need to be so hard like now.
