He kicked the mount under him vigorously with both legs, and immediately after the white BMW neighed, it stepped forward with four legs and rushed forward.
Ying Zheng was riding a horse, feeling the whistling wind in his ears, as if he had returned to the time when he had just learned how to ride a horse, feeling a sense of excitement and joy in his heart.
After a while, he finally had enough of his addiction and turned over from the horse, but his heart was even more excited.
After feeling it for himself, he clearly understood how important these two things, which are not considered subtle, are for horse riders.
They not only allow a person to quickly learn to ride and shoot in a short period of time, but also greatly increase the stability so that people will not fall easily.
If it is used in the training and combat of cavalry, one can imagine what kind of scene it will be.
According to his estimation, with the addition of saddles and stirrups, the time for training cavalry can be shortened by at least half.At the same time, the excellent stability will also greatly increase the cavalry's horse combat ability.
If the Daqin cavalry is equipped with these two things, they will gain a huge advantage when fighting against the enemy on the battlefield...
Chapter 377 Ye Chen Gets Your Dirty Hands Away
Looking at Ying Zheng who was full of joy, Ye Chen stepped forward and asked, "I don't know these two things, what do you think, Your Majesty?"
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng couldn't help saying, "Haha, good stuff!"
As he spoke, his gaze was still fixed on the saddle on the horse's back, as if he wanted to engrave it deeply in his mind.
Seeing this, Ye Chen said: "If the king likes it, I will give it to you."
Hearing this, Ying Zheng was shocked for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Sir, what you said is true?"
Ye Chen nodded lightly and said: "Of course it is true, I can give all three of these things to the king."
Ying Zheng was overjoyed when he heard the words, then raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Three pieces? What else are there besides the saddle and stirrups?
Ye Chen replied: "Didn't you use the third gift just now?"
"The widow has already used it?"
Hearing what the other party said, Ying Zheng was also a little puzzled, and then looked at the white horse and asked, "Could it be this mount that you are talking about first?"
Ye Chen shook his head with a light smile, and said, "Your Majesty, you might as well take a look at the four hooves of this horse."
"Horseshoe?"
Ying Zheng's eyes were set on the limbs of the steed.
After that, regardless of his status as the king, he went directly to the white horse, squatted down, and raised a horse's hoof with his hand.
I saw that there was an extra piece of iron on the hoof that should have been bare.
There was some doubt in my heart, and I asked, "What is this?"
Ye Chen didn't make a fool of himself either, and said straight to the point: "I call this thing a horseshoe, and nailing it to the soles of the horse's feet can reduce the damage to the horse's hoof and allow the horse to survive for a longer period of time."
There should not be much steel in Qin now, but it is also possible to replace this kind of thing with other strong metals. "
Hearing these words, Ying Zheng's gaze changed instantly, and shock and enthusiasm emerged.
Then he stretched out his other hand and stroked the fast horseshoe with complicated emotions.
Whether it is the design principle or the specific production method of this thing, it is not difficult, and it can even be said to be very simple.With his IQ, he figured it out quickly.
At this time, Ying Zheng had only one thought in his heart, and that was: "Why didn't I think of this idea!"
Although the horseshoe is relatively hard, it will cause considerable wear and tear after running for a long time.
Because war horses have to be trained frequently, and the intensity of exercise is relatively high, the rate of wear and tear is much faster than that of ordinary horses.
And once the soles of the horse's feet are severely damaged, the horse is considered useless and can no longer gallop on the battlefield.
As the most powerful country, Qin State consumes a lot of horses. Every year, an unknown number of horses are scrapped due to excessive wear and tear.
Especially in recent years, Qin has successively conquered several countries, and the consumption of war horses has doubled. This is undoubtedly a very huge expenditure.
Whenever I see the figures reported by the officials, my heart is bleeding.
However, for every country, cavalry is indispensable, otherwise they will be passive on the battlefield, and they can only be beaten but cannot catch up with others.
So for so many years, the kings of various countries can only grit their teeth and pay for this expenditure.
However, this problem that has plagued various countries for thousands of years has been solved, and the method is as simple as a small piece of iron.
Ying Zheng couldn't help feeling that if he could have discovered this problem earlier, then Qin would not have to lose so many war horses.
At this moment, Ye Chen said: "Now that Han, Zhao, and Wei have perished one after another, the biggest obstacle to the unification of the world is Chu.
Chu State has a vast territory and powerful military force. If you want to conquer it, you will definitely pay a high price. Therefore, I will present these things to the king, hoping to make the battle to attack Chu more smooth. "
In fact, he fiddled with these things a long time ago, but he never took them out.
After all, both saddles, stirrups and horseshoes are very easy to imitate. If they appear too early, they are likely to be copied by other countries.
Good steel should be used wisely. Chu State is the most powerful among the six countries. It is best to save the secret weapon until this time, and surprise is the best.
In fact, he originally planned to send this thing before Qin Chu started the war, but he didn't expect Qin to send troops half a year earlier, so he just missed it.
If there were these few things, Qin Jun wouldn't lose so badly this time.
Looking at the few things in front of him, Ying Zheng's mood couldn't help but agitated, and many thoughts came to his mind.
In the wars of this era, the deterrent power of cavalry is much greater than that of infantry under the same circumstances, but even in the most powerful state of Qin, the number of cavalry is limited.
As for the reason, nothing more than two points.
First, the output of war horses is not high, and the annual wear and tear is quite alarming, not many can be active on the battlefield.
Second, both horses and cavalry need training. Since horses are not easy to control, it takes a long time to train cavalry.Seriously affected the number of growth.
But now because of the appearance of these things, these two problems have been perfectly solved.
It is conceivable that in the next few years, the number of cavalry in Qin State will definitely increase exponentially.
With this in mind, Ying Zheng stood up, walked to Ye Chen's side, and put his hand on his shoulder.
With an excited face, he said: "The three gifts you gave to the widow, each of them will be priceless. If there is anything you want, just say it, and the widow will satisfy you as much as possible!"
Ye Chen heard the words and said, "Really?"
"You have no jokes!"
Ying Zheng replied with a serious face.
