The start time of Daqin is reversed by 30 seconds

"what is this?"

However, only Wu Ji was startled first, then frowned, then took a deep breath, and finally fell into deep thought, and then, as if he had found a treasure, he held it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

"Saddles, stirrups, horseshoes!! This!"

Following Wu Ji's utterance, everyone came to their senses one after another. They were surprised at this new statement, but why it is said to be the country's most important weapon, this point has not yet been understood.

But soon.

Meng Tian was the second to think of something.

With a serious face, as Mengshi who has been in Xiaoguan for a long time, he deals with horses every day, so he doesn't know the benefits of horses.

There are many benefits, but there are also many harms.

First, it is difficult to control, moves slowly, and cannot run for a long time. Moreover, war horses can generally only be used for two years. Where do war horses that exceed two years go? They either go to breed or become poor horses.

Moreover, within a year of [-] war horses, the hoofs of the five layers of horses will be damaged to varying degrees, and they cannot be used for conquest.

Of course, this is only the first time the soldiers have seen it based on experience.

However, Su Jie knows better than anyone else the significance of the appearance of the horse's iron hoof, saddle, and stirrup.

To be precise, this is of epoch-making significance.

For cavalry, it is a qualitative improvement.

It is also the main reason why the Western Han cavalry was able to defeat the Huns in history.

"This? Unbelievable! Really heavy weapon!"

You must know that the three-piece set appeared in Qin State in advance. Once it is widely used by Qin State, it will be no less than a disaster for Beidi!

So what if it's riding and shooting in Hu clothes.

Compared with a long-distance raid, the stamina and impact of a war horse are simply not the same.

Wang Jian and the others also immediately realized something unusual.

As steady as Wang Jian, he couldn't help being stunned, and said: "General, if this thing can be made, it can be used as a cavalry with heavy armor, not to mention outside the Great Wall, even the Central Plains can be used. Unexpectedly, this is a heavy weapon."

Only then did Wu Ji and Meng Tian realize the slightest bit, and they both knew that this simply broke people's inherent thoughts.

Wu Ji said excitedly: "If this thing is really possible, then my Wu family's hundreds of thousands of poor horses can compete in the battlefield again!"

Meng Tian was overjoyed and said: "General, this is you, a gift for the last general? Last general! Last general!!"

As a soldier who has ridden horses all year round, he can only appreciate the superficial benefits brought by this saddle. In fact, there are countless benefits that need time to be realized.

Wang Jian said: "Although the general doesn't know the advantages and disadvantages of the horse's iron hoof, the saddle can greatly enhance the cavalry's combat ability. The man and the horse are integrated, and the soldiers can freely and accurately control and wield their weapons on the horse. It is to create conditions for close combat, which can not only attack from above, but also chase and evacuate. The general's ingenuity can be the first of its kind in the ages, it is unbelievable!"

But Wu Ji said: "Wu's family has raised horses for generations. You should know the advantages and disadvantages of this horse's iron hoof. An ordinary horse will become a poor horse in three years. With this iron hoof, it will last ten years like a day."

"hiss……"

Meng Tian said: "If there is such a thing, why should the barbarians be afraid of it!"

All the soldiers looked at it one after another, and finally they all bowed their hands towards Su Jie and said: "General, you have made great achievements in the community!"

Wu Ji also bowed obediently in the center of the crowd.

Su Jie waved his hand and said, "It's not the merit of this Marquis, but the merit of China."

Everyone drove away one after another, thinking that Su Jie was humble, but what Su Jie meant was that this was the work of the Chinese sages.

Su Jie continued: "This thing, the Marquis originally planned to return to Xianyang, find a blacksmith, carefully cast it, and give it to you, but since there is Wuzhen today, I think this thing is more suitable for Wuzhen to make. , Benhou will hand over Yanmen Pass to you two."

Wang Ben sighed and said, "Meng Tian, ​​Wu Jian, if the two of you are finished, you must send me a pair."

Li Dao said: "The last general also wants to."

All the soldiers laughed.

But Wang Jian said: "I hope to see it very much. Meng Tian has tens of thousands of iron hooves in his hands. What will it look like then! There will be nowhere for Beidi to escape. I am afraid that the plan of the Yan Kingdom will come to nothing. Prestige will shake Lechuan."

Meng Tian was extremely grateful and excited in his heart.

The general handed over this kind of heavy weapon to Mengshi, and to Mengshi, it is the grace of generations.

Su Jie laughed and said: "Meng Tian has always thought ingeniously. He can refine the brush and improve my Qin Zheng. Now that he can get this important weapon, he will surely achieve something. This thing seems simple, but it is definitely not easy to do. But Now that Wu Ji is helping me, this Marquis is relieved."

Su Jie's worries were not unreasonable.

The three-piece horseshoe set, the iron art of Qin at this time was already difficult to make.

Su Jie secretly ordered the craftsmen to make it separately. The main problem is that iron art is very difficult and easy to rust. Once the horse is scratched, it will cause large-scale injuries and the loss outweighs the gain.

But now, Wu Ji raises horses, how to treat horses is far from what the soldiers can compare.

Wu Ji has a clear mind and has long been thinking about how to make it, what kind of horse it should be used for, how strong the horse is, how to develop it!

But when he thought about it, he really fell into a problem.

His expression immediately fell into Meng Tian's eyes.

Meng Tian asked: "Wu Ji, is it difficult to make this thing?"

Wu Ji said: "It's not difficult to make this thing, the difficulty lies in iron art!"

When everyone heard the words, they nodded immediately.

Even Su Jie couldn't help admiring, this Wu Jian could see the key at a glance.

Wu Ji continued: "The horses used by Hufu for riding and archery are usually replaced every year! If there is no pain in the inspection, then you can fight in the battlefield. Once the ordinary ironwork rusts, you may hurt yourself."

Chapter 626 The Eternal Wealthy King and Grandson of Linqiong

Chongbie Building reminds you: ask for collection () after reading, and it is more convenient to read again.

When everyone heard it, they immediately understood the truth and nodded their heads in approval.

Even Su Jie couldn't help admiring, this Wu Jian could see the key at a glance.

Wu Ji continued: "The horses used by Hufu for riding and archery are usually replaced every year! If there is no pain in the inspection, then you can fight in the battlefield. Once the ordinary ironwork rusts, you may hurt yourself."

Suddenly, Wu Ji's expression brightened.

His eyes were bright, and he was very happy. He clapped his hands and said, "Wang Sun, Wang Sun, why did I forget you!! Wuyouyi, this thing will come true!!"

Seeing Wu Ji's excited appearance, all the generals and Su Jie also looked sideways.

Excited, it is inevitable.

You must know that if Meng Tian used this horseshoe and stirrup to conquer the Northern Territory, he would be passed down through the ages as his own, and it would naturally be recorded in the annals of history.

How could King Qin treat Wushi badly?

Du Sha looked at Su Jie and smiled.

Wang Ben said: "Wu Ji, don't worry about being alone, how to solve it, what is Wang Sun?"

Wu Ji immediately calmed down, cupped his hands and said, "Generals, the family Wang and Sun belong to is quite remarkable. If Wang and Sun help each other, great achievements can be made!"

"Oh? I'd like to hear about it!"

Wu Jian said: "Back then, before Handan of Zhao State was conquered by Marquis Wu, almost all the richest people in the world gathered in Handan. Among them, the most famous ones, after Lu Xiang made his fortune in Handan, only the North Wu clan remained. , Nanzhuo family, but the difference from my Wu family is that the Wu family has kept horses for generations, and the Zhuo family has smelted iron for generations. South Korea, Wei, and Zhao have all iron craftsmen from Zhuo's craftsmen. unique reputation."

At this time, let alone the soldiers.

Even Su Jie stared blankly and exclaimed: "Zhuo Wangsun!?"

Wu Ji was stunned and said, "Huh? Marquis Wu also knows that I'm young?"

It was only then that Su Jie realized that he had lost his composure. This is Zhuo Wangsun, one of the richest people in the ages, even worse than Wu Shi. However, according to the time, the current Zhuo Wangsun should still be in his youth.

Su Jie said: "This Marquis doesn't know Zhuo Wangsun, but he has only heard of Zhuo's family."

What surprised Su Jie was that Zhuo Wangsun's historical records recorded that he had great ambitions, knew forbearance, grew up, step by step, and created a legend in the Warring States period, similar to the steel king of later generations.

According to historical records, after Qin State destroyed Handan and Zhao State, Zhuo Wangsun, as a family of iron smelters, migrated with his ancestors to Linqiong in the middle of Shu in Qin State, which is now Shu County in Qin State.

How big is this family!

At the beginning, there were 2 clansmen brought to Qin.

Its iron smelting technology later promoted the long-term development of the entire Qin State. Linqiong was connected to Bajun in the east, Yue in the south, and Qin in the north. The wealth of one person can be compared to half of the unified Qin State.

however.

Zhuo Wangsun had only one daughter in his life.

This daughter is also one of the three strange women who are famous in later generations and who have been passed down through the ages!

Zhuo Wenjun!

Incarnate Mei Changsu back then.

The song Feng Qiuhuang by the Linzi River is about this woman.

Huang is Zhuo Wenjun.

Wu Ji did not doubt that someone else said: "Zhuo's iron smelting is rare in the world, but because it moved to Shu, the king and grandson told his father that the world is in turmoil, and the situation is not yet clear. If he participates in it, it may bring disaster. Therefore, In these years, the Zhuo family forbeared with Shuzhong, and did not have any contact with other countries. Once, the kingdom of the Three Jins, which stood in the east of Qin State, deliberately prevented Zhuo's iron smelting from entering Qin State. Therefore, Qin State I don’t know and I should.”

Everyone suddenly realized.

Wu Jian said: "I have been friends with Wang and Sun since childhood, and we only communicated when we were two. Over the years, because Wang and Sun went away to the middle of Sichuan, we have also exchanged letters for several years. Last year, Wang and Sun said that he also began to participate in governance and management. As for family affairs, Wu Ji thought, if the world can make exquisite stirrups, only the king and grandson are left. Now, the whole family of the king and grandson is in the state of Qin. In order to be safe, his family ignores the affairs of the world and goes deep into Bashu first. Qin knows, but if Zhuo knows that Qin has destroyed the Three Jins, he will definitely help Qin along with Wu."

Wu Ji continued: "In terms of its wealth, the Wu family is probably not as good as it is. In his letter, it is said that the wealth of the Linqiong Zhuo family is far greater than that of Zhao in the past. They even have their own mines and private houses. In the manor, the money is over the Big Dipper, the rice is rotten into the warehouse, there are groups of children and servants, cattle and horses, and the armed guards are tens of thousands of people. "

Wang Ben suddenly thought about his pocket.

In comparison, the Zhuo clan is richer than the current state of Qin.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Wang Ben wished he could lead his army to plunder.

Su Jie also didn't expect that the Zhuo family was better than he imagined, so he said that in Bashu, there are only a few who can support tens of thousands of private soldiers. The background is extremely profound, but it can be achieved on such a scale in just six years, which shows its advantages and disadvantages.

Ba County and Shu County, the system of Qin State is different from other counties.

No matter how powerful you are in other counties, you are absolutely not allowed to have private soldiers, but Bashu is different.

Because after Sima mistakenly attacked Bashu, he lamented that the land of Bashu was unusual. In addition, when the Qin State was governed, it encountered great resistance. Most of them were lands of mountains and forests. Advantage.

Qin had no choice.

On the one hand, after capturing Bashu, they ordered Li Bing and his sons to open canals here to help the people of Bashu govern the place.

That is, private soldiers.

Among them, the most famous one in history is that Qin Shihuang ruled the world, and was stopped in the northern part of Berkshire by Huaiqing, the richest man in Qin Dynasty in Berkshire, with [-] private soldiers.

Moreover, if it is said that there are many righteous men in Yanzhao.

Na Bashu has been a hero since ancient times.

He is a real hero, not a hypocrite who messes with the law with chivalry!Even if it is a thousand years later, when the country is in crisis, it is the heroes and righteous men of Bashu who sacrificed the most for the country.

Respectable and admirable.

So, this is why, even though Bashu is a mercenary, it does not cause chaos, and the first emperor granted it!

Wenwang Temple is rich enough.

Dusha can help Qin rebuild its homeland in Wei.

But the first emperor built the Great Wall, no money, no goods, where did the money come from?Huaiqing of Bashu contributed money and goods, and used all the power of the family to help Yingzheng. That is a real wealth that surpasses the country. If it weren't for Huaiqing's nominal engagement, the first emperor would have accepted her as his concubine long ago. The love for Huaiqing, although this matter has not been written into the Shiji and Benji, but between the lines, it is not difficult for future generations to guess.

This strange woman, Berkshire Huaiqing, was the first emperor's favorite woman who really fell in love with her!

Of course, these are all things in Su Jie's memory.

As far as the present is concerned, if Zhuo's family and Wu's family really help each other, then Daqin's iron cavalry, pointing their swords to the west of Tianshan Mountain, and holding the moon and broken leaf city, is no longer an extravagant hope.

All the soldiers are looking forward to it.

Meng Tian asked: "Wu Ji, this thing is related to our country of Great Qin. It is no small matter. Although Zhuo Wangsun is a powerful man in Shu, our Qin State has always been lenient towards Ba and Shu. If they do not agree, how will our Qin State respond."

Zhuo refused.

Qin Guo would never dare to persecute it!

Zhuo's influence is by no means as simple as they thought.

Historically, the Zhuo clan influenced South Vietnam, the Jianghan area of ​​Chu State, and the Berkshire area, and even made the entire Shu county rich.
