Lu Bu frowned and looked at Huang Zhong's mount, he was a proud person, especially in martial arts, he was very reluctant to blame the failure on the mount or something, after all, the war horses of the two knew that it was almost the same at a glance, but to say that there was no unwillingness in his heart, it would be a lie.
At this moment, when he heard that Huang Zhong was invited, he remembered what Liu Xie said before, Lu Bu did not refuse again, if Liu Xie said before that those three inconspicuous things can make the knight exert stronger combat effectiveness, Lu Bu sneered in his heart, then at this moment, he had to doubt.
After all, as the military general closest to him, Lu Bu and Huang Zhong fought a lot in the past, but Mo said that if he lasted until two hundred rounds, he could support the lily, and Lu Bu intended to release the water, but today, Huang Zhong fought with him for more than two hundred times under Lu Bu's onslaught, and finally exhausted the physical strength of his war horse, and the horse lost its front hoof. nodded silently, it can be seen that Lu Bu is not in a very good mood now, a few steps forward, took the reins handed by Huang Zhong, and his body jumped and fell on the horse's back, just like Huang Zhong, after getting on the horse, Lu Bu subconsciously went to clamp the horse's belly with his legs, and then stepped on the stirrup, his legs are very long, this war horse is an ordinary war horse, and the body length is naturally difficult to compare with the red rabbit.
But it did not prevent Lu Bu from feeling the wonderful use of this stirrup, his body shook on the horse's back, and with the assistance of the saddle, he didn't have to worry about slipping off the horse's back all the time, plus the stirrup.
Lu Bu suddenly strained his legs and stood up from the horse.
"Miao" Lu Bu waved the crescent halberd in his hand, and couldn't help but praise loudly, with these two things, he can exert his power unscrupulously on horseback, although for a top martial artist like him who is proficient in horsemanship, the bonus of these things is actually not big, but at their level, even if it is only one or even half of it, the power that can be exerted is also great.
Moreover, Lu Bunai is a cavalry general, and he knows very well what these two things can bring to a cavalry breakthrough.
Even if it is a knight with ordinary riding skills, with the assistance of this thing, it can be used by a cavalry with superb riding skills, these two things alone can improve the combat ability of a cavalry by thirty percent, don't underestimate these three percent, with this thirty percent improvement, Lu Bu has absolute self-confidence, and can reduce the battle losses of the troops by half or even more.
"There are these two things, but they can greatly balance the shortcomings of our soldiers in horsemanship."
Turning over and dismounting, Lu Bu looked at Liu Xie and said, "I just don't know, what is the use of that iron piece?"
"Hui Wenhou."
Pu Yuan on the side hurriedly arrived: "The hooves of the war horse are extremely easy to wear, and nailing this thing to the horse's paw can help the war horse run long distances and greatly reduce the probability of the horse missing the front hoof." ” "I see."
Lu Bu nodded.
"It's a pity that this horseshoe is easy to build, but it is quite difficult to nail it to the horse's hooves, and it is very difficult to nail the horseshoes of 15,000 war horses in fifteen days."
Pu Yuan smiled bitterly.
Lu Bu nodded, and after thinking for a moment, he looked at Liu Xie and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has a word." ” "General, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
Liu Xie looked at Lu Bu unexpectedly.
"This saddle and stirrup can greatly improve the combat effectiveness of our knights, but this horsefoot, the minister thinks that since there is not enough time, he only needs to attach a horse's shoe to the general's war horse, and the rest of the soldiers only need to be equipped with a saddle and stirrups, after all, on the grassland, the most important thing is the war horse, and the minister can completely raise the war with war, even if the original war horse stumbles, we can also snatch the war horse from the Hu people to transfer, I don't know what Your Majesty thinks" Lu Bu hugged his fist.
Liu Xie was stunned, and then reacted, yes, although the horseshoe has a protective effect on the war horse, but now that the time is pressing, the horseshoe can take it slowly in the future, with Lu Bu's ability, plus Zhao Yun and Wei Yan, do you have to worry about the problem of no horse when you run to the grassland As for the saddle and stirrups, they are relatively simple to disassemble and equip.
"If it's just a saddle and stirrups, it should be done in fifteen days."
Pu Yuan was moved when he heard this.
Liu Xie's task, the most rare is to install stirrups for more than 10,000 war horses, if you go to this one, they don't even need to install equipment for war horses, as long as in these fifteen days, make every effort to create the required saddle and stirrups, although the task is still very heavy, but as long as you find more people to rush the work, plus Liu Xie's kind of assembly line operation cooperation, within fifteen days, it is no problem to build another 6,000 pairs of harness.
"A word to wake up the people in the dream" Liu Xie couldn't help but shake his head and smiled when he heard this: "It's that I have asked too much, since this is the case, I will do what Wen Hou said, and in addition, the thousand war horses that have been nailed to the horseshoe will be assigned to the generals of this trip, and the equipment on Wen Hou's red rabbit horse will be tailor-made and fast." ” "The minister commands" Pu Yuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and bowed down and replied.
Both the length and height of the red rabbit horse are far beyond ordinary war horses, and the equipment created by this system is not suitable for the red rabbit horse, and must be tailor-made.
"This time to build horse harness, is a major event in the army, to deal with military regulations, to build equipment can accumulate military merits, the military merits obtained by the soldiers in front of this battle, will be divided into half to the Ministry of Industry, of course, if there is a problem, the same must be dealt with by military law."
Liu Xie said in a deep voice.
Although it has not yet been promoted, Liu Xie has already launched a military merit system in the workshop, some weapons, armor and the creation of items designated by the imperial court like this horse harness, or the development of some practical things that benefit the people, all have military merits, as long as they accumulate to a certain extent, they can be promoted to the rank of knight.
However, these feats do not come out of thin air, just like the equipment in the army, the soldiers have made meritorious contributions on the front line, and will divide a part of the meritorious service to the Ministry of Industry, and the people's livelihood equipment has another set of merit recording process, these things, at present, are only in the Ministry of Industry for trial, and have not yet begun to promote, after all, even if they are promoted, the merits of these craftsmen are not enough for them to be promoted, there are no examples and achievements, everything is empty words, only these two things are available, in order to promote at the same time, block the mouths of the people.
"Your Majesty Xie" Pu Yuan and several craftsmen around him heard this, and they became excited one by one as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they joined the Ministry of Industry, isn't that why "As soon as possible."
Liu Xie stretched out his hand, turned his head to look at Lu Bu and Huang Zhong and said, "The two generals have a fight, they must be tired, go and rest." ” "Huh" Lu Bu and Huang Zhong intervened and saluted, and after bidding farewell to Liu Xie, they left side by side.
Liu Xie stayed in the workshop, and he still had some details to discuss with Pu Yuan and others.
But said that although the reason has been explained, Lu Bu is still a little angry after all, he has been on the battlefield for half his life, and it is the first time he has lost to others in a one-on-one situation, no matter what the reason, losing is losing, even if no one knows, he is losing.
"Hansheng" came out of the workshop, and Lu Bu stopped Huang Zhong.
"What's the matter with Wen Hou" Huang Zhong, who was about to go home, looked at Lu Bu suspiciously.
"On this expedition, I will find a good horse for you, and I will return triumphantly in the coming day, and you and I will fight again on another day."
Lu Bu looked at Huang Zhong and said in a deep voice.
"Okay" Huang Zhong heard this, and said loudly: "In this way, I will thank Wen Hou for his kindness." ” "Farewell."
Lu Bu arched his hand and turned to leave.
Looking at Lu Bu's back, Huang Zhong couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, this Wen Hou's temperament is too arrogant.
In the next few days, the people of Chang'an City clearly felt as if something was about to happen.
"Is there going to be a war, why have a large number of war horses been sent over recently, when I went out of the city today, I passed by the horse farm, there was martial law over there, I took a look at it from a distance, the war horses in it, not to mention thousands of horses" The afternoon sun still has some residual heat, and the people gathered in the streets and alleys, discussing the recent situation in the city.
"It's impossible, if it's going to be a war, I haven't seen the court levy people's husbands."
The so-called three armies have not moved, grain and grass first, the carrying capacity of this era is limited, generally if there is a war, a large number of people will be requisitioned to transport grain and grass, generally a force of 50,000 people will go out, logistics will be requisitioned 100,000 or even more people, those battles that sound huge, in fact, the number of people is mostly counted into the regular army, it sounds very huge, in fact, the real person in charge of fighting, sometimes even 30% is not enough.
"Who knows, maybe Your Majesty has something big to do, I heard that the imperial court has developed a new plough, which will be put into the place next year, maybe these horses are used for transportation."
"Have you seen anyone who uses war horses to transport things, and in the last few days, but there are a lot of Tuntian troops who have been transferred back from Lanchi, and they must be fighting."

Counting from the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the troubled times have lasted for nearly ten years, for the people, it is naturally war-weary, but now the court is hopeful, although since Liu Xie took power, in addition to dealing with the Xiongnu, has not moved against the princes, but this year's autumn harvest is over, a rare harvest in Guanzhong, the waist of the court is bulging, some experienced people probably feel that war is inevitable, as for when it will be fought, no one can say it, but the conclusion that there will be a war, basically, up to the officials and nobles, Down to the peddlers and pawns, they all have such psychological preparations.
The atmosphere of Chang'an City, with a large number of war horses being sent to Chang'an, and the 8,000 Lanchi army being transferred back to Chang'an, became more and more solemn.
Driven by this atmosphere, in the past two days, many people began to express their opinions around the war, and the fight must be fought, but which prince to start with first, but there are endless disputes, some people feel that they should fight Xiliang, some people think that it is relatively easier to collect some of the state, and there are also advocates of garrisoning Luoyang, first taking back the old capital, and even some people have calculated how the court will send troops now, so as not to harm the people's livelihood.
Listening to a group of ministers expressing their opinions in the hall, Liu Xie himself was a little stunned, did I say that I was going to fight t1706231537:
