Chapter 21: The Horseshoe


Chapter 21 Horseshoe "Is that so?"

Li Shimin looked at the shape of the horseshoe for a long time before nodding: "It seems to make some sense, let's try it." ” "Okay."

Li Zhen nodded: "But if the child can really help his father solve this big problem, I don't know what the father is going to give to the child?"

Say it in advance, although this is the child's own idea, but the father can't discount the child because of this. ” Because this time it was Li Zhen who 'came up with it herself', so Li Zhen said a reward rather than an exchange.

"Hahaha......

Zhen'er, don't worry, how could my father do such a thing?

What do you want, though?

"If we can really solve the problem of horse elimination, how much silver will need to be saved in this treasury every year?

In fact, on the battlefield, there are not many war horses that are really killed, and more are disabled after the war - so many lost weapons on the battlefield, and the sprint speed of the war horse is very fast, even if you see it, you can't hide it, and the early war horse because there is no protection of the horseshoe, once you step on the weapon, the horse is basically useless.

"Didn't the boy say that?

The child wants to do business, but now the child has no shop, no workshop, and no shopkeeper, so the father only needs to give the child some shops and workshops and a little capital, but there must be a magnetic kiln, a restaurant, a tea mountain, a sugar workshop, a wood workshop, and the rest of the father and emperor look at the arrangement. ” "Well, not much."

Li Shimin nodded temporarily, if it can really solve the problem of horsehoe wear, this price is really not expensive, after thinking about it, Li Shimin nodded and said: "If it is really as good as you say, my father will give you these promises, but my father also said that the so-called horseshoe is really effective in solving the problem of horsehoe wear." ” "It should be fine."

Li Zhen said "uncertainly".

"Hahaha......

Let's try it, let's go, let's go to the Young Prison's Mansion.

Li Shimin laughed, took Li Zhen on his shoulders, and strode towards the Young Eunuch's Mansion.

Li Shimin came outside with Li Zhen in his arms, and at the same time ordered several important military ministers of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jing, Li Ji, Hou Junji, Cheng Yanjin, and Wei Chigong to rush to meet with the Shaofu Supervisor.

The Shaofu Supervisor was in charge of all the work of the hundred crafts, including the art of smelting and forging, and there were the best craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty, and the craftsmen who had previously made the printing press were transferred from the Shaofu Supervisor.

According to the drawings given by Li Zhen, the craftsman created a horseshoe in a very short time, and with the help of Li Zhen, the craftsman installed the horseshoe on the horse's hoof.

Li Jing, Li Ji, Hou Junji, Cheng Yanjin, and Wei Chigong soon rushed over, and Li Shimin told the reason, and the eyes of the five people burst into blazing light.

They were all from military backgrounds, so they naturally understood what this horseshoe meant.

Li Shimin pointed to the horse and said, "Zhijie, you ride up and try it." ” "Yes."

Cheng Biting Jin turned over his horse and galloped away.

As soon as Cheng Yanjin's figure disappeared, Li Shimin and the remaining four people waited anxiously with their necks hooked, only Li Zhen was relaxed in his heart, the horseshoe had passed the test of time, and there would be absolutely no problem.

For them, this is an experiment, but for Li Zhen, it is an experiment, and the difference between the two is big.

The appearance of the horseshoe is a sharp weapon for the rise of the cavalry, and with the help of the horseshoe, this time the Eastern Turkic War will definitely be fought more beautifully.

A quarter of an hour later, Li Shimin was already waiting a little anxiously, and at this moment, the sound of "knock ......" like a drum came from a distance, and it was the sound that a horse equipped with a horseshoe could make when it hit the ground.

Sure enough, along with the sound of drum-like hooves, there was also Cheng Yanjin's unique laughter: "Hahaha......"

Before the people arrived, the laughter had already come, quite Wang Xifeng's style of 'before you see the person, hear the voice first'.

Li Shimin's five people glanced at each other, knowing that this matter was already eight or nine.

Sure enough, Cheng Biting Jin jumped off the war horse neatly and laughed: "Your Majesty, it's too enjoyable."

Hahaha......"

"What the hell?"

"See for yourselves."

Cheng Yanjin picked up the horse's hooves: "Old Cheng, I rode this horse to pick up difficult sections of the road, and even ran to the river to walk on the gravel beach. ” Li Shimin's five people gathered around to take a look, and as Cheng Yanjin said, the horse's hooves were intact and not damaged at all.

"Okay, good, good, Zhen'er, you have made a great contribution to my Datang."

Li Shimin, who couldn't help but be excited in his heart, picked up Li Zhen and took two bites on his face.

"It's not a child's work."

Li Zhen wiped the saliva on her face: "After all, we agreed before." ” "No, how can a few shops deserve such a big credit?"

Li Shimin's concept is that merit must be rewarded, and punishment must be punished, in his eyes, the Faming horseshoe is obviously a great achievement, and several shops are definitely not worth this price: "Say, what else do you want, the emperor will allow you." ” "Hmmm!

The father is exempt from taxes, and the value of this horseshoe in your heart is exempt from tax for as many years as you want.

Li Zhen rolled his eyes, and then solved another problem by the way, you must know that his business is very profitable, the thought of his money to be taken away by the treasury, Li Zhen's heart is as painful as a knife, before he was still regretting forgetting to mention the tax-free thing, and now it is just time to make up for it.

"Hahaha......

Zhen'er is really a good boy.

Li Shimin thought that Li Zhen was sensible, knew that he was thinking about himself, and had a captain in his heart, so he gave an order that almost made him regret it for the rest of his life almost without thinking: "Since Zhen'er is a good child, then the father and emperor can't be stingy."

In the eyes of my father, the value of the horseshoe is priceless, so Zhen'er, you just go to business, and the father will give you an order, as long as my Datang still exists for one day, the court will not charge you a penny of tax.

What do you think?

” "That's right, Your Majesty, as long as you have this horseshoe, the elimination rate of this horse will be greatly reduced, this is definitely a great achievement, why worry about a small tax?"

Cheng Yanjin echoed first.

"What the emperor said is good."

Contrary to Li Zhen's expectations, the second person to speak was Li Jing: "Your Highness has made such a great contribution, Your Majesty has only exempted a little tax, and the minister still feels shabby." ” He was purely grateful to Li Zhen, because the strategy of attacking the Turks had already been decided, and he was the predetermined commander, and now Li Zhen offered the horseshoe, a cavalry weapon, at such a critical time, which really helped him a lot.

"The minister is also in favor."

Wei Chigong, Li Ji, and Hou Junji also agreed with Li Shimin's reward, they are all military people, and naturally they all understand what the appearance of the horseshoe means to the cavalry, not only the ultra-low elimination rate, but also the stronger grip and faster impact speed, which is absolutely huge to help improve the combat power of the cavalry.

"Okay, Zhen'er, you and them go back first, my father still has some things to discuss with several ministers, and the reward will be given to you when my father returns."

"Thank you, father, son-in-law retire."

The next thing must be because of the strategic modifications made by the appearance of the horseshoe, and these are not Li Zhenneng can participate.

Unexpectedly by Li Zhen, after he left, Li Shimin did not start to talk about business, but looked at the back of Li Zhen leaving: "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think of Zhen'er?"

” "This ......"

Everyone was asked by Li Shimin, and they didn't know what he meant, and after a long time, Li Jing replied: "Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness is naturally extremely smart and precocious, otherwise you wouldn't have come up with the saltpeter ice making method and today's horseshoe." ” "Exactly, Your Majesty, Your Highness is really smart."

Cheng Yanjin also chimed in: "Anyway, it is said outside that His Royal Highness can be blessed by heaven. ” "Heaven forbid?

Heaven forbid?

Ay!!

Li Shimin's face was complicated, and he sighed and said, "......

Let's get down to business. ” "Yes."

Although they were baffled by Li Shimin's words, they didn't want to ask again when they saw that Li Shimin didn't want to talk about them, so they had to hold back their doubts and discuss the right thing, and what they said was similar to what Li Zhen guessed, that is, how to defeat the Turks more efficiently and with fewer losses after the whole army was equipped with horseshoes.
