Chapter 274 Horse fight?
"Sir, what you said just now, this saddle, stirrup?"
After hearing this, Ying Zheng asked in confusion, "What are these?"
Have never heard of it...
"Ah? I thought our village was not needed, so I didn't pretend..."
Zhao Long was stunned when he heard this and said with some surprise, "Those are all horse equipment..."
Last time he rode the horses in the village himself, he barely managed to control the balance. He thought to himself that the village was just to save money and didn’t use much, so he didn’t prepare these things, right?
They didn't know?
Horse equipment?
Ying Zheng immediately asked in surprise, "Can't it besides the reins, the horses have equipment?"
"Of course!"
Zhao Long smiled and said, "Ancient war horse three-piece set!"
What?
Three-piece war horse set?
Ying Zheng was even more surprised when he heard this, and Meng Tian, Li Si and others behind him were also surprised.
Three-piece war horse set?
It's actually used on war horses?
"War Horse?"
"yes……"
Zhao Long said, "The saddle is to make people sit on the horse more comfortable and more stable, otherwise it will not be too uncomfortable at least? Stirrups provide balance and stability. Once you wear the stirrups on both feet, you can free your hands and achieve unity of the horse!
As for horseshoe, it is to reduce the wear of horseshoe. No matter how far you go, at most, replace one horseshoe and the horseshoe will not be worn out..."
Damn?
What did you say?
When everyone heard Zhao Long's words, they were shocked.
The saddle is for more comfort, and the stirrups can provide balance to achieve unity of the horse?
And this horseshoe can prevent the wear of the horseshoe?
Hiss?
It seems to make some sense...
Not to mention anything else, they all know the problem of riding horses.
If you want a more secure horse, it will basically not work if you have a few years of riding!
Moreover, when riding horses and fighting, people need to spend a lot of energy on horseback to control the horses and maintain balance!
Therefore, there are threats of cavalry combat, but they are very limited by their own conditions!
Now that Zhao Long said something about this saddle and stirrup, everyone was shocked.
If you can see the effect with your own eyes, you will understand whether these things are suitable for the Iron Cavalry of the Qin Dynasty!
And that horseshoe?
As the name suggests, is it a horse's hooves inlaid with iron?
Wow, this is a very wonderful creative idea!
If a layer of iron is wrapped around the horse's hooves, it will indeed prevent the horse's sole from wearing out!
You should know that in ancient times, a batch of war horses would be replaced soon. In addition to the physical energy consumption of horses, a major key factor was the wear of the horseshoe!
Horseshoes will continue to grow, so if they are artificially raised horses, they have to repair the horses in order to make the horses walk more smoothly.
However, during wars, long-distance raids and other things consume a huge amount of wear and tear on horseshoes in a short period of time!
Horseshoe is like a car's outer tire. Only by relying on the support of the outer tire can shock absorption and avoid wear.
Once the horseshoe is at its bottom, the horse will basically be unable to move forward!
The horse itself weighs a lot. If you add another person, or you have to add some luggage and armor. The hooves that act as protective layers are gone. How can you not hurt when grinding the flesh? www.81zw.??m
So, you can't walk!
After the horse's hooves are worn out, the horse will either be scrapped or have to wait three months to half a year before the horse's hooves will grow out again.
So the horses are put in the south mountain to not only raise fat, but also raise horse hooves!
but……
When everyone heard the horseshoe that Zhao Long said, they suddenly felt a sudden feeling in their hearts, as if they had discovered a new continent!
yes!
Since horse hooves are easily damaged, why should you worry so much if you put this horse hooves on them?
At most, the iron is worn out, so I'll just replace it with another one?
There is no need to be afraid of using the horse's hooves because they are worn out and will affect their use!
"Sir, do you know how to do this saddle stirrup horseshoe?"
Meng Tian immediately asked when she heard this.
"It's simple...that thing, just the right size for one design..."
Zhao Long said with a smile, "The content of design technology is not high."
"Okay, then please sir, make one immediately and show it to us. I wonder if it is possible?"
Meng Tian asked excitedly after hearing this.
"Yeah? So anxious?"
Zhao Long was stunned when he heard this, "We don't use horses often in our village, right? And we don't fight any wars... This thing doesn't make much sense, right?"
"This... is... too..."
"Right? We don't usually ride horses to the town, right?"
Zhao Long was stunned and said with a smile, "I'm still thinking about riding a horse to the outside of the village..."
Damn?
Yeah?
"This... is actually quite a lot..."
On the side, Li Si heard this and immediately said, "Sir, I don't know. Actually, there are many places where we use horses... For example, we and the next village have to come to shoot horse-fighting targets every month!"
What's the thing?
After hearing Li Si's words, Zhao Long was stunned, "Madou? Take a photo? Oh, horse fight and target shooting..."
He thought to himself, I'm still wondering what it is...
"Yes, what do you think sir?"
After hearing Zhao Long's words, Li Si and others were stunned.
"Oh, I thought it was this..."
Zhao Long smiled and then said, "By the way, the fourth brother, I will bring me this next time I will do it. I will also see what our rural culture looks like, participate, and get a distance from the villagers."
"OK!"
After hearing this, Li Si smiled, "Next time, I will definitely bring you sir! However, now we need to be equipped with some saddle stirrups so that we can win!"
"What's this? No problem!"
Zhao Long smiled and said, "I will make it for you in the future! Ensure that we have the advantage of equipment!"
"well!"
After hearing Zhao Long's words, Ying Zheng was also happy.
If Zhao Long could do this, it would undoubtedly be a huge improvement for the combat effectiveness of the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty!
