Various Heavens and Realms Picking Attribute System

Li Mu's face was very dark!

Lian Po's face was even darker!

They were all laughing at Li Yao's overestimation, that he wanted to use 30 impostor guards to defeat the experienced soldiers on the battlefield.

Now, the results of the cavalry competition between the two sides came out.

On their side, a hundred soldiers on the battlefield were all 'killed'.

On the side of the imperial guards, none of the 30 soldiers was 'killed', but some soldiers suffered minor injuries.

This result slapped them hard in the face.

They never expected that they would lose so badly.

However, they were even more curious about how Li Yao did it.

As soon as the competition was over, Li Mu and Lian Po couldn't wait to jump off the high platform and rush to the training ground.

Li Yao and Shanrou Zhao Zhi looked at each other, smiled, and followed together.

Before, Li Mu and Lian Po had already discovered that the equipment of the imperial guards was somewhat different.

Therefore, as soon as they rushed into the training ground, they began to study the horses ridden by the Imperial Guards and the weapons used by the Imperial Guards.

First, they studied a pair of stirrups that hang from either side of a saddle.

Of course, they didn't know that this thing was called a stirrup, because at this time, the stirrup hadn't appeared yet, and it was around the Western Han Dynasty that the stirrup began to appear in the Central Plains.

The stirrup is an epoch-making invention in human history.

Just as a Western expert pointed out: "There are few inventions as simple as the stirrup, and few inventions have such great historical significance. The stirrup applies animal power to close combat, and integrates the cavalry and the horse."

Indeed, after the invention of the stirrups, the horses were easier to control, the human and the horse were connected as one, and the rider on the horseback freed his hands. The back swings left and right to complete the military action of chopping left and chopping right.

Li Yao saw that Li Mu and Lian Po were studying the stirrup curiously, and explained: "This is called a stirrup. I don't need to explain its function. The two prime ministers must have already seen it."

It's true that Li Mu and Lian Po are both veterans in the battlefield. When they saw the stirrup, they knew the function of the stirrup and saw the advantages of the stirrup even more.

Lian Po was speechless again and again: "I didn't expect such a small stirrup to solve the big problem that it is difficult for cavalry to fight on horseback."

Li Mu was also amazed and said: "Teacher Li is really a great talent, such a simple and ingenious stirrup, we didn't even think that a small pair of stirrups can make it difficult for soldiers to fall off the horse's back, and it can also increase the combat effectiveness of soldiers." increase."

Afterwards, Li Mu and Lian Po fixed their eyes on Takahashi's saddle.

At this time, the saddle has appeared.

However, the saddles at this time are basically padded saddles, that is, a cushion. When people sit on it, they will not hurt their buttocks.

There are generally two difficulties in riding a horse.

First, it is uncomfortable, because the spine of a horse is very high, and it will feel uncomfortable to ride directly on it. Certain parts will obviously hurt, and the horse is also uncomfortable.

Second, it is unstable, there is no support in the front and back, and the feet cannot step on the ground, so it is easy to sway left and right.

The padded saddle, to a certain extent, solves the difficulty of uncomfortable riding.

However, the difficulty of riding an unsteady horse is obviously not solved by a padded saddle.

The Takahashi saddle can solve this difficulty well, and further solve the problem of uncomfortable riding.

Moreover, the combination of Takahashi saddle and stirrup perfectly solves the problem of unstable riding.

At this time, Takahashi saddles did not appear. It was not until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Wei and Jin Dynasties that Takahashi saddles began to appear in the Central Plains.

It can be said that the Takahashi saddle is also a great invention in the history of cavalry in the world, and its role and influence are no less than that of the stirrup.

Lian Po and Li Mu touched Gaoqiao's saddle, with bursts of amazement on their faces.

Such a delicate design perfectly solves the problem of riding a horse before.

They all know that in the absence of stirrups and high-bridge saddles, cavalry rides on the horse's back, and only by holding the reins or mane and clamping the horse's belly with their legs can they prevent themselves from falling when the horse is galloping.

But this method is very unreliable!

The first is that riding for a long time is prone to fatigue, and at the same time it is difficult to use bows and arrows effectively on the back of a running horse.

In close combat, however, the cavalry cannot use swords and spears as they wish, the failure of chopping or stabbing, the impact of the blades on both sides, etc., will cause the cavalry to slip off the horse at any time.

However, stirrups and Takahashi saddles can perfectly solve these problems.

They never expected that Li Yao would create two things of such great significance.

These two things can definitely improve the combat effectiveness of the cavalry by several levels.

Lian Po couldn't help admiring: "Teacher Li, you are so smart, you can think of such an exquisite harness."

Like Li Mu, Lian Po at this moment no longer calls Li Yao a Juzi, but calls Li Yao a Taifu.

Before, they had never recognized Li Yao's identity as the Taifu.

At this moment, they have completely convinced themselves and fully recognized Li Yao's status as the Grand Tutor.

Li Mu couldn't help but want to get on the horse and try these two new harnesses.

Li Yao reminded: "Li Xiangguo, you can step on the stirrup to get on the horse."

Li Mu was overjoyed, it turned out that the stirrup still had this function, it was so practical.

So, Li Mu stepped on the stirrup, got on the horse, whipped the whip, and the horse neighed, and galloped away.

Lian Po couldn't help it anymore, and excitedly said: "I will try too!"

With that said, he imitated Li Mu's appearance, stepped on the stirrup, easily got on the horse, and then rode away.

Li Mu and Lian Po seemed to be riding a horse for the first time. They were very excited and excited, and they kept making various fancy movements on the horseback.

Even, on a whim, the two fought on horseback.

Zhao Zhi, who was behind Li Yao, sighed, "I didn't expect the two Prime Ministers to be so excited, so excited!"

Li Yao said with a smile: "Of course, they are all veterans in the battlefield, so they naturally know that these two new harnesses will bring earth-shaking changes to the cavalry."

Shanrou nodded and said, "Yes, when I rode a horse with stirrups and a high bridge saddle for the first time, I was so excited, so excited."

After riding for a long time, Li Mu and Lian Po rode back.

As soon as he got off his horse, Lian Po shouted excitedly: "It's so fun, it's so fun. I've never ridden so happily since I've been riding a horse."

Li Mu also felt the same way, and said excitedly: "If all the horses in the army use these two harnesses, the combat effectiveness of our cavalry will definitely be greatly improved."

Lian Po hurriedly said: "Teacher Li, I want to equip all the horses in our army with these two harnesses."

Li Yao laughed and said, "Don't panic, you two, we still have another more powerful object that we haven't looked at yet!"
