Qin Shubao stood beside Yang Yi.
"Your Highness, these are my cavalry," he said respectfully.
Yang Yi smiled." The quality of these cavalrymen is quite high. I'm sure General Qin's training is quite rigorous."”
Qin Shubao said seriously,"Your Highness, you praise me very much." As a general of the imperial court, I should do my best!”
Yang Yi smiled and pondered." The cavalry is flexible. They can take on a frontal assault, but they can also circle around, chase, and attack! A powerful cavalry unit can often determine the direction of victory on the battlefield."
Qin Shubao nodded. His impression of Yang Yi had changed. He had thought that this Crown Prince who had wandered among the people was only here for fun, so he had come to the military camp.
Now, it seemed that the Crown Prince was not as simple as he had imagined.
The battle in the distance continued.
Yang Yi spoke frankly and confidently," Although the cavalry has a great advantage, it is extremely difficult to train an invincible cavalry. In addition to the quality of the cavalry, the warhorses are also very important. However, the warhorses trained by the Great Sui are still a little lacking. Nothing is better than a dragon in the sky and a horse in the earth. Horses are the foundation of armor and weapons, and are of great use to the country. Only in cold and high places can good horses be raised.”
Qin Shubao nodded, and his tiger eyes revealed a look of surprise." Your Highness is right.”
If someone who was proficient in horse raising said such words, he would not be surprised at all. However, Yang Yi, who had such a noble status, also had such a deep understanding, which made him a little surprised.
Yang Yi smiled." Father has set up a horse farm in Longyou and a horse herd in Qinghai. This is why we have the Great Sui Iron Cavalry."
Qin Shubao listened to Yang Yi's eloquence and nodded.
Yang Yi's eyes revealed a strange look." General Qin is experienced in the battlefield. You should know that a horse can only serve the army for a short period of time. There are many horses that are worn out every year, and these horses are basically eliminated. Therefore, strong and sturdy horses are rare and expensive to train."
Qin Shubao said," Your Highness is right. Every year, there are many horses in the army that can't be used on the battlefield due to excessive wear and tear. Sigh, every qualified warhorse is very precious. This is also an important reason why there are not many cavalries.”
"What if I have a way to stop these warhorses from wearing out so quickly?" Yang Yi smiled.”
Qin Shubao suddenly raised his head and looked at Yang Yi with a burning gaze.
"Your Highness, are you serious?"
He looked excited. To them, a warhorse was undoubtedly their closest companion.
However, when the hooves came into contact with the ground, they would fall off very quickly due to the friction of the ground and the corrosion of the water.
This was undoubtedly a fatal blow to the warhorses.
"Of course it's true." Yang Yi smiled.”
"General Qin, find some blacksmiths. I'll show you how to delay the wear and tear of the horse's hooves."”
Qin Shubao was agitated. He followed Yang Yi's instructions and immediately went to find the person.
After a while.
"Your Highness…Everything is ready." Qin Shubao said respectfully.
Yang Yi raised his eyebrows. He picked up a brush, dipped it in ink, and then lightly drew a few strokes on the paper.
Thanks to his check-in system, Yang Yi had excellent drawing skills.
At this moment, there were only a few strokes.
On the paper, a horseshoe appeared.
Qin Shubao and the others had solemn expressions.
The atmosphere was extremely quiet.
Yang Yi put down his pen and smiled." Done. This is called horseshoes. It is a horseshoe made of fine iron that is nailed to the hooves of a horse. The horseshoes are hard and can protect the hooves very well. It also allows the hooves to grip the ground better.”
Qin Shubao was stunned." Nail horseshoes to a horse?" he asked.”
He had never seen such a move.
Yang Yi said seriously," If a person walks barefoot all the time, it will also be uncomfortable. Naturally, it is the same for a horse. Horseshoes are equivalent to shoes for the horse. Not only do they protect the hooves, but they also make the horse more stable.”
Silence!
The surrounding was terrifyingly silent!
Qin Shubao was shocked. He was shocked by Yang Yi's wonderful idea.
"But won't the horse hurt when nailed to its hooves?" he muttered.”
Yang Yi laughed." There's a thick layer of horniness on the horse's hooves. How can it hurt? Forget it. I can't explain it to you. You'll know once you try."”
Qin Shubao indeed did not understand Yang Yi's words, but he knew that the Crown Prince would not speak without thinking.
Yang Yi drew the appearance of the horseshoe, and these blacksmiths only needed to follow suit.
Ding ding dang!
An hour passed.
Only then did the sound gradually stop.
"Your Highness, please take a look." The blacksmith at the side said respectfully.
Yang Yi smiled as he looked at the horseshoes in front of him.
Qin Shubao was also very curious.
The shape of the horseshoe was like a full moon, and it was extremely compatible with the shape of the horse's hoof.
"General Qin, let's find a horse and try it out." Yang Yi muttered.”
"Yes." Qin Shubao nodded.
There were many warhorses in the camp, so he casually pulled a black horse over.
"Nail the horseshoes on," Yang Yi said.”
"Yes."
Everyone nodded.
They prepared the horseshoes and began to shoe the horse.
Hua Ying leaned against Yang Yi, her beautiful eyes wide open. This was also the first time she had heard that a horse could be 'shoed'!
After a while.
"His Highness has already recovered." Qin Shubao said respectfully.
Yang Yi smiled." Do you see any pain?”
The horse was not used to the horseshoes, but it did not seem to be in pain.
Qin Shubao's tiger eyes revealed a look of surprise. With these horseshoes, wouldn't their warhorses be able to be used for a much longer time?
This Crown Prince was really godly!
