Datang: Valkyrie chat group

Several blacksmiths in Duke Wei's mansion were summoned to Erqi by him.

Before going to the Northland, he has to do one thing, to be precise, he has to build a thing

horseshoe.

The horse's hoof is composed of two layers. The layer in contact with the ground is a layer of hard cutin about 2-3 cm thick, and the upper layer is live cutin. The horse's hoof is in contact with the ground and is subject to friction from the ground. Corrosion, will fall off quickly

With heavy loads, horseshoes are more likely to corrode and fall off.

He managed to get such a sweaty BMW. If the road of the sweaty BMW corrodes and falls off on the battlefield, then he will suffer a lot.

In order to avoid this situation, he thought of horseshoes, and planned to take advantage of the two days in Chang'an to tinker with the horseshoes and put horseshoes on his bloody BMW.

In fact, this horseshoe does not have any technical content. The key is that Tang Feng has only read some records about horseshoes and a few pictures. As for how to forge, to be honest, he really doesn't understand.

A horseshoe is a smooth iron disc that is looped at each end. The horseshoe is then fastened to the horny hide of the horse's hoof using nails

Then put it under the horse's feet. Then use a hammer and a jar to put this thick piece of iron red into the sole of the horse's feet and use the barb of the iron nail to fix it on the horse's class bone to prevent it from falling off.

Five blacksmiths were busy in front of the impromptu stove. There was another person beside the one who fired the molten iron. According to the sketch drawn by Tang Feng, the wood

From the beginning to the end, Tang Feng stood there watching

But in this era of cold weapons, such a small gadget can solve the big troubles that cavalry often encounter, and prevent the horseshoes of war horses from corroding and failing

You must know that the high elimination rate of war horses is not because of the injuries of the war horses, but because of the corrosion and drop of the horseshoes. How to protect the horseshoes has become the most troublesome thing for everyone.

Under the supervision of Tang Feng, the mold of the horseshoe was quickly made, oiled repeatedly, and soaked again, and it was completely formed.

Then, the blacksmith who fired the molten iron poured the molten iron that was made into the blood into the mold

As the molten iron gradually cooled down in the mold, a dark road iron was formed.

Although I don't know how good the quality is, at least L looks at his husband, and it is somewhat similar to the horseshoe in his impression.

Waiting for the temperature of the horseshoe to drop down, the chainsmith took it out of the mold.

"Gugu..." The blacksmith handed over the horseshoe,

Tang Feng took the half-broken ring and put it in his hand for a closer look. Not to mention, it really has some meaning.

You go to the stables and bring an ordinary horse over. "Relying on this freshly baked horseshoe, Tang Feng told Li Hu, the boy,

Just when Li Hu went to lead the horse,

Confession, began to forge the iron cylinder of the red horseshoe.

Not long after, Li Hu led the horse

"Put the horse down." Tang Feng ordered

A few people including Wei Tong rushed forward, overturned the horse and pressed it tightly to the ground

"Put this nail through these holes

Get up and give instructions to the blacksmith next to you.

He has never seen horseshoeing, so naturally he doesn't know about horseshoeing.

"My lord, if the nails are tight in the horse's hoof, the horse will be useless." The blacksmith asked.

Said.

"If you tell me to do it, then do it." Tang Feng took a nail and made a gesture on the horse's hoof.

, said to the hesitant blacksmith.

The carpenter thought for a while, but still walked over.

The blacksmith's technique is relatively delicate, and the horseshoeing is a delicate job, so Tang Feng asked the blacksmith to do it

Just as Tang Feng was tinkering with shoeing the horse, Li Jing returned to the Duke's Mansion.

It's just that Li Jing didn't come back alone, Tang Yu Li Er, and Hejian County King Li Xiaogong, Cheng Zhijie, and Fang Xuanling - get up

Naturally, it was somewhat unsatisfactory. At the very least, Rangzhi Tang Wang Li Er was very dissatisfied, so after the discussion was over, he brought Li Xiaogong and others to Li Jing's mansion.

As for coming to the Duke of Wei's mansion, Li Er naturally had his own plans, because he hoped that Li Jing could go out of the mountains to go to the western frontier again.

Of course, when Tang Wang came to Weiguo's mansion, Li Xiaogong knew it, Fang Xuanling knew it, Li Jing knew it was just a friend, and no one wanted to tell the truth in advance.

"Duke Wei, today, you don't say anything. Thinking about it, you have a strategy to deal with the current situation." Walking in the Duke's mansion, Tang Wang Li Er suddenly asked Li Jing.

Hearing His Majesty's words, Li Jing smiled wryly in his heart.

The reason why he didn't say anything was because he didn't agree to make peace with Tuzang, but he couldn't think of any countermeasures.

As smart as he is, he naturally knows that this is because he is forcing himself to stand up. "The uncertainty of the four directions is due to our incompetence as ministers. If Your Majesty does not dislike the old minister's Nianfa Gao, the veteran is willing to go to the west for your majesty. I dare not say that I can defeat the Western Turks, but let them show their orders. If you don't dare to move easily, you can still do it, Li please ponder for a moment, and then said

He knows that what his Majesty has decided cannot be changed. Since His Majesty insists on letting him go to the west, no matter how unsympathetic he is, he still has to go in the end.

Since this is the case, then, it is better to simply ask for your order than to ask His Majesty to bring it up.

Seeing that Li Jing took the initiative to ask the king of Tang, Li Er finally showed a smile on his face.

The other people who followed turned their heads to look around, but Xiao Chong was full of helplessness.

"Wei Guogong is really my friend and the pillar of the Tang Dynasty. If you can reach the northern border and wait until your teacher returns to the court, I will definitely reward you." Li Er said with a smile.Looking at His Majesty who was smiling and happy, Li Jing felt more and more bitter in his heart. At this moment, there was a roar of war horses.

"Hold on firmly. The cylinder must be fixed. Don't let it loosen." A voice came from the yard not far away.

Hearing these two voices, Shantang King Li Er stopped in his tracks, and Li Jing and others also followed the voices and looked over there.

Li Jing is naturally familiar with that voice

Looking at the direction the voice came from, it was the courtyard where my daughter and son-in-law lived.

What is Tang Feng doing?

"This should be Tang Feng's voice." Li Er looked at the yard over there, heard the noisy voice, and told Li Jing.

Li Jing nodded.

"Come on, let's go over and have a look, see what this kid is doing" Listening to the noise

Then he walked towards the yard over there.

Li Jing wanted to speak, but Li Er had already walked over there, so he had no choice but to swallow the words that came to his lips, and followed quickly

inside the yard

With the help of several people, the blacksmith finally completed the first horseshoe cylinder.

Tang Feng squatted down, held the horseshoe and shook it for a while, and it was fixed very well. Thinking about it, even if the horse ran at a high speed, it would not break the horseshoe.continue. "After the blacksmith nailed the first horseshoe, he also gained some experience, and the speed of nailing the second horseshoe was obviously much faster.

In a short amount of time, all four horseshoe nails were healed.

"Okay, let go." Tang Feng stood up after finishing the horseshoe, and said to Wei Tong and others.

Whether the nailed horseshoe has any effect on it.

After Wei Tong and the others let go, the horse lying on the ground stood up abruptly.

Tang Feng put his palm on the horse's back and turned directly onto the horse

The legs were slightly exerted, the horse neighed after sitting down, and then galloped in this yard. The whole process was done in one go, and the speed did not decrease at all, and it was not affected in any way.

While manipulating the horses to gallop in the yard, Tang Feng saw Tang Wang Ben Li Er and others standing at the gate of the yard.

After seeing Li Er, he hurriedly slowed down his horse.

He bowed to Li Er and saluted.

Li Er didn't pay attention to him either. He went straight to the horse, squatted down, and looked at the road at a close distance.Ben Guang is Li Er, followed by Li Xiaogong, Cheng Zhijie and Li Jing, also surrounded him

This hoop seems to have the effect of protecting the horseshoe. "Li Xiaogong squatted down and looked at the horse's hoof under the horse's hoof, and said in a deep voice.

"While the horse is galloping, it is not affected at all." Cheng Zhijie even leaned forward, holding the horse's hoof with his palm, and said.

"This hoop looks quite simple. It shouldn't be difficult to mass-produce it." Li Er raised his head and asked Li Xiaogong L who was beside him.

"The few blacksmiths in Duke Wei's mansion can make it, and the craftsmen at the iron workshop can naturally do it too. As for mass production, there is absolutely no problem." Li Xiaogong replied affirmatively.

Order the craftsmen at the workshop to build [-] sets within three days and nights." Li Er said that there is no room for comment.

Tang Feng stood there, looking at these big rhodium squatting in front of his own horses, quite speechless.

Anyway, this horseshoe is made by yourself. Although you guys are old and powerful, if you want to promote the use of this horseshoe on a large scale, you have to discuss it with yourself first.

"By the way. What is this thing called 2?" At this moment, Li Er finally thought of Tang Feng.

"Return to Your Majesty, this is called a horseshoe." Tang Feng could only answer honestly.

"How... how did you install this horseshoe?" Li Er continued to ask

of. " Tang Feng replied

"If the nails are nailed on the horse's hoof, won't it hurt the horse?" Cheng Zhijie couldn't help asking

"As long as the nails are of the right length and don't penetrate the flesh, there will be no impact." Tang Feng explained to several people present.

"Your Majesty, if this horseshoe can be equipped on a large scale, in the future, we won't have to worry about the horseshoe corroding and falling off." Cheng Zhijie stood up and said a little excitedly.

"You kid, you've made a great contribution." Li Xiaogong said with a smile as he squinted his eyes at Tang Feng.

Iron shoes, after a year, can save our Tang's war horses from losing a few hairs. "Fang Xuanling pushed his fingers and counted, then said.

Tang Wang and Li Er looked at Tang Feng with playful eyes, but did not speak immediately.

some scalp hair

"Hmm...Tang Feng made meritorious service in building horseshoes, and his official rank was promoted to - rank. He was recruited to be a captain of Zhaowu." After a while, Li Er finally spoke in that leisurely voice.

Just like that, before Tang Feng even went to the battlefield, he made meritorious deeds. General Lang, only one grade short.

He was a little confused about his promotion this time.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After the initial distraction, Tang Feng quickly knelt on one knee to express his gratitude.

Of course, he hasn't been on the battlefield yet, so he doesn't know how much this gadget he tinkered with means to the cavalry army.

Just as Fang Xuanling said, just this one horseshoe can reduce the unreasonable loss of thousands of war horses every year.The loss of these war horses is mostly due to the corrosion of the horseshoes.

Li Jing stood there. Looking at the bewildered son-in-law, he had mixed feelings in his heart.

He never imagined that Tang Feng, who was born in the countryside, came to Chang'an within a short period of less than a month. He was quickly promoted from a commoner to a sixth-rank Zhaowu martial arts drama. became a general

Although there were mixed feelings in his heart, he couldn't feel happy at all.The higher the official position of Tang Feng, the greater the responsibility when he arrives on the battlefield, especially for officers of Zhaowu Technical Lieutenant level, they have to lead their troops to fight bloody battles with the enemy

In previous wars, among all officers, mid-level officers suffered the most casualties.

In the bloody battle in the north, only a few of the hundreds of students under his command who walked off the battlefield intact in the end, died or were disabled

"Tang Feng._Do you have any involvement in military affairs?" Tang Wang Li Er looked at Tang Feng and asked suddenly

Hearing the question that His Majesty came up suddenly, several veterans present all looked at each other. They knew that this was His Majesty's military strategy that was going to be tested by Tang Feng.

At this moment, Cheng Zhijie and the others' gazes fell on Tang Feng.

They also want to know whether this young man who is capable of writing and martial arts is as good as his martial arts and poetry in military matters.The second skill is not A.

Not only Cheng Zhijie and the others, but even Li Jing was a little curious.

After these days, Li Jing found more and more that his son-in-law was hiding really deep, even he couldn't see through.

"Regarding your majesty's military affairs, I understand a little but only superficially." Tang Feng replied very modestly

Hearing Tang Feng's answer, Li Er nodded with a smile, as if he was quite satisfied with the answer.

As a general, if he doesn't understand military affairs, then L will be buried, and in this life, he can only be a general who goes into battle.

"What do you think about Tubo?" Tang Wang Li Er asked.

At this moment, Tang Feng's brain was working rapidly.

藏

This is a hurdle that Datang can't get around.Ever since Dazong ascended the throne, he has been thinking about conquering Tubo and bringing the whole of Tubo into the territory of the Tang Dynasty. However, because of the problem of the plateau, several conquests ended without a problem.
