Zhao Che looked at the silent Old Wang and smiled.
"Everyone! Prepare for the drill!"
They turned around in an orderly formation and bowed! Then, they dispersed!
Not long after!
Dozens of cavalrymen had already come out!
The cavalrymen were fully armed and covered in armor.
Not only that, the dozens of warhorses were also covered in armor!
Iron Futu!
Heavy cavalry!
It was not easy to get horses in this era. Zhao Che had spent a lot of effort to get a few dozen horses.
On the contrary, Tie Futu's equipment was relatively simple for Zhao Che.
In this era, there was no shortage of iron ore. Zhao Che had the steel-making skills, so he did not lack steel. As long as he had a warhorse, he could easily make an Iron Pagoda.
"Whoa!"
Wang Jian's eyes lit up!
During the Warring States Period, the cavalry was mainly light cavalry.
The heavy cavalry had a huge weakness, which was that they were difficult to control.
In this era, there were no stirrups and saddles, so it was too difficult to operate them. Therefore, there were no heavy cavalry for the time being.
And what entered Wang Jian's eyes, as expected, was the first heavy cavalry of this era.
"Heavy cavalry!" Wang Jian muttered.
Wang Jian could be said to be a military expert.
After realizing that the Chariot of Unification had lost its original position, Wang Jian raised the possibility of the rise of the Brave Battle Sect.
At the same time, he also brought up the heavy cavalry!
Although the heavy cavalry was not agile enough, they were still very agile compared to the chariots.
However, due to the limitations of stirrups and saddles, Great Qin had not been able to research Heavy Cavalry.
A full suit of armor weighed dozens of kilograms, and he had to control a warhorse. It was too difficult.
In this era, there were no saddles, and the body was almost in direct contact with the horse's back. Wearing armor that weighed dozens of kilograms was too much of a test for the body.
Wang Jian had experimented before.
A group of cavalrymen donned heavy armor, and they couldn't even last an hour.
The main thing was to grind his balls!
There was no direct contact between the hip of the saddle and the spine of the horse.
Light cavalrymen had always been a test of Eggy's endurance. After an intense battle, it was no joke that the cavalrymen's crotch was badly mutilated.
Not to mention the heavy cavalry.
The damage to the balls is too great
Therefore, the heavy cavalry had always remained in the concept.
After seeing Zhao Che's heavy cavalry, Wang Jian immediately thought of this problem. He was just about to ask Zhao Che how to solve this problem.
He took a closer look!
There seemed to be something strange on the horse's back?
Not only that, but there were also footrests on both sides of the horse's back!
"This is…"
Zhao Che was stunned for a moment as he looked at where Wang Jian was pointing.
"Oh, stirrup-saddle!"
Only then did Zhao Che remember that the Qin Dynasty didn't have stirrups and saddles!
This thing appeared during the Han Dynasty.
Not even horseshoes!
It was no wonder that the Qin Dynasty didn't have any organized heavy cavalry.
The heavy cavalry carried a lot of weight, and the wear and tear on the horseshoes were very serious.
Without horseshoes, a heavily mounted warhorse would not even have a month to live.
The high-intensity load caused too much wear and tear on the horseshoe!
Warhorses were a scarce resource. To put it bluntly, it was true that horses were more expensive than humans.
And without a saddle
The wear and tear on people is relatively large
During the Warring States Period, there was no underwear.
To describe it in one word, it was a gentleman with his balls.
This was also the reason why Zhao Wuling's spiritual king, dressed in Hu clothes, rode horses and shot arrows, immediately rose to prominence.
No one could withstand sitting naked on a horse's back!
After Zhao Wuling, the various countries quickly invented pants.
To be precise, it was underwear.
It was mainly for the convenience of riding and shooting, to avoid too much damage to the eggs.
However!
Even without saddles and stirrels, there would still be wear and tear on the iron sheet.
Moreover, the heavy cavalry's balls would be damaged even more severely when they were carrying heavy loads.
There were no stirpers, saddles, or horseshoes.
A battle, a loss of a horse and two eggs
Zhao Che looked at Old Wang's puzzled expression and said.
"You can think of it as a stool! The stool on the horse!"
Wang Jian was still a little puzzled.
Of course, he didn't know the benefits of a saddle that had never been used before. This was the blessing of this era.
"Do you want to try?" Zhao Che said with a smile.
"Do you know how to ride a horse?" Zhao Che asked.
It was more difficult to ride a horse in this era because there was no saddle to help you maintain your balance, so Zhao Che asked casually.
Wang Jian nodded his head!
It was useless to explain something that he had never seen before. It was best to give it a try!
Wang Jian had long proposed the concept of heavy cavalry!
If this little thing on the horse could relieve the burden, then there was really hope for the heavy cavalry to appear!
Although the heavy cavalry of ancient times were not very agile, they had the effect of making the final decision on the battlefield!
The impact and lethality were too great!
Especially when the battle was intense.
If the light cavalry were guerillas, then the heavy cavalry were tanks!
No matter which era it was, the heavy cavalry was a great killing weapon!
