From eunuch to emperor

Chapter 355 New Cavalry Equipment

"I'm from the Marshal Long's mansion. General Long asked me to bring some things to the mage."

As he spoke, the man handed a box to Mojie.

Hearing that it was someone from Longchen's residence, Mo Jie quickly picked it up.

"Farewell."

The man turned and left, Mojie immediately closed the door, put the box on the table, and quickly opened it, there were more than a dozen books inside.

Mojie's heart trembled, and he quickly picked up a booklet with the "Shurangama Sutra" written on it, and other scriptures underneath.

Mojie sat down cross-legged, quickly opened the scriptures, and eagerly studied...

"All floating dust, all illusory appearances, are born wherever they are, and disappear everywhere. They are illusions and appearances, and their nature is really a wonderful enlightened body."

These scriptures are completely different from the Buddhist teachings taught by Monk Kongji. Monk Kongji advocates that taking refuge in Buddha is the only Buddha, and that the world’s people can only be liberated by taking refuge in Zhaoti Temple. Long Chen’s scriptures advise people to see their nature clearly and transcend the mundane world. Don't fall into the world of mortals.

Majie was completely immersed in the exquisite Dharma, time and space disappeared, and even himself did not exist.

...

Fengming Palace.

Yingfeng walked into the imperial study room and said: "Your Majesty, Pu Xuan and Hong Zhi led the monks to preach Buddhism everywhere, and they have bewitched many people."

The empress frowned slightly, and asked, "Where is Mojie?"

Yingfeng replied: "Long Chen gave him a box of scriptures, he didn't come out for a few days, and hid in his room to peek."

The Queen's smile gradually stretched, and she said with a smile: "It seems that Long Chen's strategy has worked, it's wonderful..."

If Long Chen's trick fails and Pu Xuan and Hong Zhi confuse the people again, the Empress will lose out.

Now Mojie has been shaken, and things are beginning to take shape.

"What is Long Chen doing?"

The empress asked Yingfeng.

"It seems that he went to the South Camp to train troops. He said that the matter of rebelling against Mojie will definitely offend Monk Kongji, and Xixia will definitely send Jing Tianlie to the northern border to make trouble."

The empress glanced at Yingfeng and asked, "Have you gone to find him?"

Yingfeng's face froze, and she hurriedly said: "Weichen... only met once."

In fact, Yingfeng secretly went to Long Shuai's mansion, and slept on Long Chen's bed... well, just slept and rested in a serious manner.

The empress nodded slightly and didn't ask any more questions.

...

South Camp.

Zhang Qian is instructing the cavalry to put new harnesses on the horses.

The cavalryman picked up a tall wooden saddle, put it on the horse's back, and muttered while installing it: "I have been a cavalryman for more than ten years, and I have never seen such a strange thing."

Gongsun Linglong was standing beside her. She was two heads taller than Zhang Qian, and she was very tall. She was a typical big girl.

"Hurry up and hurry up, there are 3 copies, we can't make them out, and we don't have enough materials."

Long Chen originally wanted Linglong Pavilion to make 10 copies, but the material consumption was too much, and Linglong Pavilion did not have enough manpower, so only 3 copies were completed.

"This speed is already very fast. We will use 3 sets for the time being. We will do it when the materials arrive."

The cavalry fitted ten horses with new harnesses.

Tall wooden saddle with stakes, pommel, pommel, and iron stirrups.

Dugu Jiali looked at the newly made Takahashi stirrups and said, "It's really different. It turns out that the soft saddle has been used for a long time, and I feel quite comfortable."

In this world, stirrups have long existed, but they use soft stirrups, especially the northern barbarians. They lack iron and prefer to use animal skins. This habit also affected the cavalry in the Central Plains.

As for the saddle, it is a pad on the horse's back, and two straps fasten the horse's belly.

"Try it, and then you'll know."

This high bridge saddle was designed by Long Chen, it is good for stabilizing the cavalry, especially when charging, it can reduce the impact force and is not easy to fall.

Zhang Qian ordered twenty old cavalrymen, ten of them used Takahashi saddles, and ten of them used old soft saddles.

The old cavalryman looked at Takahashi's saddle and said in embarrassment: "General, this saddle is very difficult to climb on."

Takahashi saddles are high on both sides, and it is not as convenient to climb on as soft saddles.

Long Chen said: "Just step on the stirrups and go up."

The old cavalryman stepped on the iron stirrups carefully, then supported the pile head, turned over and climbed up.

"Huh? It's pretty stable."

Iron stirrups can give your feet a solid feel and won't be as unstable as soft stirrups.

"Put on a soft tip."

Zhang Qian asked the cavalry to wrap their spears in cloth, and then spread out to fight.

"start!"

Zhang Qian ordered ten cavalrymen to charge forward.

The horses ran, and the Lancers began to charge, with their spears tucked under their armpits, aiming at the oncoming cavalry.

boom...

The cavalry on Takahashi's saddle stood up after being hit, and instead of falling off, they knocked off the cavalry on the opposite side of the soft saddle.

The cavalrymen who were stabbed on the soft saddles all fell off their horses.

"This thing is good, and the buttocks are stable."

The old cavalry knew the power of Takahashi's saddle once they tried it.

Zhang Qian was surprised: "It's so good? I'll try!"

Zhang Qian climbed onto the Takahashi saddle, holding a spear in her hand, and galloped back and forth on the school grounds, feeling as stable as Mount Tai.

Zhang Qian tried to let go of the rein, and found that only the saddle and stirrups could stabilize her figure.

"Great! I can use weapons with both hands."

The buttocks can sit firmly, and the hands are freed.

In the past, in order to prevent falling off the horse when riding a horse, one had to hold the rein with one hand, which greatly reduced the combat effectiveness.

"Let the horse archers try again."

Long Chen laughed.

Zhang Qian ordered ten cavalrymen to ride on Gaoqiao saddles. The cavalrymen could ride and shoot easily without worrying about being unstable.

Whizzing...

Feathered arrows flew out, and the hit rate was greatly improved.

"General, this saddle is so good, we feel like walking on the ground."

Archers feel great.

"This kind of high bridge saddle can make the cavalry more stable. Whether it is a cavalry cavalry or cavalry archer, the combat effectiveness can be improved."

"The barbarians have been riding horses and archery since childhood. No matter how we train, we can't compare with them. Only by surpassing them in equipment can we defeat them."

The northern barbarians have been riding horses, archery and hunting since they were young, and the people in the Central Plains have been farming since they were young. All the barbarians can become warriors. The people in the Central Plains must go through military training to fight, and their combat effectiveness is completely different.

Therefore, Long Chen started with the equipment and let the equipment surpass the barbarians.

"Why are you so smart? I have made so many harnesses, why didn't I think of it?"

Gongsun Linglong hugged Long Chen's shoulders, only a little shorter than Long Chen.

Seeing Gongsun Linglong's intimate appearance, Bai Tingting felt a little jealous.

"Because I'm handsome, IQ is directly proportional to my appearance."

Long Chen said very seriously.

Gongsun Linglong nodded and said: "Yes, you are indeed handsome and smart, but you are a eunuch, what's the use?"

puff...

Long Chen was almost vomiting blood.

"Can you stop being so blunt? Be a tactful girl!"

Such a straight beauty is really... maddening.

Gongsun Linglong laughed and said, "I'm telling the truth, and I'm not wrong."

Long Chen didn't want to talk to her.

...

Fengming Palace.

Mojie, Puxuan and Hong Zhi walked into the main hall, the Empress sat at the head, Long Chen led a group of generals, Di Yuwei led a group of civil servants, each standing in line.

"I have seen the Holy One!"

Mojie glanced at Long Chen, then saluted the empress respectfully.

Everyone was surprised, how did this Mojie become so humble?Are you afraid of being beaten by Long Chen?
