This is what Liu Feng thinks. (⊙﹏⊙⊙﹏⊙) However, Liu Feng is not without worries. Even the prairie people who are known as the people on horseback will use these stirrups and horseshoes.
Because horseshoes and stirrups will make their equestrian skills much better.
If during the battle, these stirrups and horseshoes were taken away by Cao Cao's cavalry, then Cao Cao's cavalry would be even more powerful and their volleys would be the best in the world.
This is not a small risk.
But in the end, these two drawings still came into the hands of Liu Xie. Liu Feng and Liu Xie had no way out. Only victory, continuous victory, victory can maintain the power they have today. Otherwise, if they fall into the hands of Cao Cao, they will no longer be able to win.
It's a puppet, but a real corpse.[
"This is called a stirrup. Father, please see, if the cavalry steps on this stirrup, not only can they get on and off the horse quickly, but when the cavalry is galloping, the cavalry's feet can be fixed with this stirrup, and both hands can leave the horse at the same time, or
Run and shoot, or hold a spear to fight with the enemy. With this, our cavalry will benefit without any harm."
Liu Feng smiled and explained the function of stirrups to Liu Xie. After finishing speaking, Liu Xie's eyes were already shining.
"Good stuff, good stuff." Liu Xie trembled with his hands and held the stirrup drawing in his hand tightly. Liu Xie didn't understand cavalry fighting, but he was proficient in bow and horse and knew what Liu Feng's drawing meant to the cavalry.
.
"The most important thing is that this can help the new cavalry adapt to riding combat more quickly." Then, Liu Feng said with a flash of light in his eyes.
"Yeah." Liu Xie nodded and thought about it in his mind. This is indeed the truth.
"This is a horseshoe." After introducing the stirrups, Liu Feng began to introduce the horseshoes. He pointed to the Cai Hou paper with horseshoes drawn on it and said.
"Our war horses can adapt to long-term attacks, but the problem is that countless war horses will be abandoned because of injured hoofs along the way. This not only affects the loss of war horses, but also affects the quality of mounted combat. For example,
Said, we want to complete the attack from Xudu, thousands of miles away. We dispatched 6,000 cavalry from Xudu. Under normal circumstances, only more than 5,000 cavalry may actually reach Wancheng, and the rest are injured because of the hoofs of the war horses.
Don't stop. But what if there is a way to get all the cavalry to reach Wancheng? The combat effectiveness will be completely different. This is the effect of this horseshoe."
Liu Xie's eyes became brighter and he held the two drawings tightly with both hands.
In my mind, I imagined Cao Cao's cavalry galloping outside Xudu City and attacking the city. But their cavalry, carrying ten days of food, went on an expedition and made detours.
This is the scene of annihilating a large number of Cao's cavalry.
As long as you have these stirrups and horseshoes, it's not completely impossible.
"How to use this horseshoe?" Liu Xie asked after taking a deep breath.
"Of course, iron nails are used to nail the horseshoes to the horseshoes. This way, small stones will not get stuck in the subdivisions of the horseshoes and cause injuries to the horseshoes."
Liu Feng pointed to the horseshoe on the picture and explained.
"If we nail it with iron nails, won't the war horse be injured immediately?" Liu Xie frowned upon hearing this and asked in confusion.
"There is always a way. This requires sacrificing some horses as a test. Anyway, I will find a way to make these two things a reality."
