Daqin: I can become stronger by killing the enemy

There were no saddles in this era, but there were saddle pads, also called soft saddles.

When the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Emperor Qin Shihuang were unearthed in later generations, you can see soft saddles on those terracotta war horses.

The saddle given to Bai Zhong by the system is a high-bridge saddle, used with stirrups, and its shape is very different from ordinary saddle pads.

Bai Zhong explained: "This is what I came up with recently based on the saddle pad. It is a thing called a saddle. I temporarily asked the people over there to make it for me. With this saddle, it will be easier to gallop the horse."

"Does this really work?"

Wang Jian looked around in disbelief.

Wang Ben suggested: "Why don't you find someone to try?"

"come here!"

Wang Jian thought it made sense, so he glanced over and randomly found a soldier on duty.

"I've met the General!"

The soldier ran over and said respectfully.

Wang Jian asked: "Can you ride a horse?"

The soldier said: "I have learned a little bit before, but I don't know much about it."

Bai Zhong said: "Now that you know how to do it, get on the horse and give it a try. My horse is not impatient and will not reject people who are not familiar with it. Just get on the horse and run around for a while."

"well!"

The soldier suddenly felt frightened.

He has learned to ride a horse, and of course he knows that when a horse runs, it is easy to throw someone off, and when the speed is fast, the injury will be serious.

General Bai actually asked him to run a lap, but he had to obey and sat on the horse carefully.

The soldier was also very curious about this kind of saddle. It was different from ordinary soft saddles. He just sat firmly and stepped on the stirrups with his feet without any guidance.

Bai Zhong slapped the horse's butt hard without any warning.

The war horse roared, let go of its hooves and ran out. The soldier held the reins tightly with both hands and was mentally prepared to fall. However, after running out, what he worried about did not happen.

Sitting on this saddle is quite firm, and there are stirrups for your legs to stabilize your body.

"You won't fall down?"

When Wang Jian and his son saw this scene, they were full of interest in the saddle.

A soldier who is not very good at riding a horse can still ride a horse and run.

With this saddle pad, the combat capability of their cavalry can be greatly improved in the future. Even if they encounter the cavalry commanded by Li Mu, they will still be able to fight.

The soldier ran around the school grounds and returned soon.

Bai Zhong picked up an ordinary bow and several arrows and asked, "Can you shoot arrows?"

"meeting!"

the soldier responded.

"Hold it and shoot the arrow while running."

Bai Zhong threw all his bows and arrows to him.

The soldier could only bite the bullet and continue. The horse ran out quickly again, then carefully picked up the bow and arrow and drew the bow. He found that his hands did not fall after leaving the reins.

He really drew his bow and shot an arrow toward a place where no one was around, reluctantly.

In the end it was successful.

The soldier looked at his hands in disbelief.

What just happened?

"Mounted shooting!"

These two words came out of the mouths of Wang Jian and his son at the same time.

This is really mounted shooting.

Among the seven kingdoms, only the cavalry under Li Mu of Zhao State could do horse riding and shooting, but that was an ability they had trained through years of fighting against the Huns.

Being able to ride and shoot is a great weapon for cavalry.

When Huan Jue was defeated so quickly, Li Mu led his cavalry to catch up and killed most of the Qin soldiers with his cavalry.

Nowadays, a soldier who is not very good at riding a horse can barely manage to shoot on horseback.

If it is a professionally trained cavalry, the effect of mounted shooting will be better.

The soldier ran around again and came back on horseback. He was still in a very confused state and couldn't believe that the man just now was him.

"Okay, you go down!"

Bai Zhong waved his hand to let the soldiers leave first, and then said: "General, General Wang, what do you think?"

Wang Ben first asked: "General Bai, tell me, is what we saw just now true?"

Bai Zhong smiled and said: "If General Wang doesn't believe it, you can give it a try."

"I believe it!"

It’s not that Wang Ben doesn’t believe it, but he thinks it’s too impossible.

Wang Jian quickly asked: "General Bai, can you make this saddle for us?"

He could see the military value contained in the saddle.

If Da Qin's cavalry had a saddle, it would not be a dream to fight Zhao's cavalry on horseback.

"I was about to give the saddle to the general to dedicate it to the cavalry of Great Qin."

Bai Zhong said, taking out the crossbow hanging on the edge of the saddle, and said: "There is also this thing."

"This is?"

Wang Jian couldn't understand. This crossbow, which had been folded to become smaller, had a very special shape.

Bai Zhong explained: "This is a very special crossbow. I got it from Han Wangan when I captured him. He said that there is only this one in the world. I think it can be imitated."

Anyway, now that Han Wang An is gone, Bai Zhong will force the source of the crossbow to Han Wang An, and the appearance of the crossbow will become appropriately reasonable.

Wang Ben was puzzled. He couldn't see Bai Zhong take out the crossbow in Xinzheng at that time, but before he could raise the question, he saw Bai Zhong open the crossbow.

The folded crossbow unfolded instantly. Although the shape was a little smaller than ordinary ones, the change and the structure on it amazed them.

In addition, the shape of this crossbow is completely different from the current military standards of the Seven Nations, and is very special.

"What a magical crossbow. How powerful is it?"

Wang Jian asked expectantly.

"Comparable to a nine-stone bow!"

Bai Zhong took out a special arrow and loaded it easily, which was more convenient than drawing a bow. He looked in one direction and said, "I'll hit the arrow target in front of you."

The distance between that target and Bai Zhong's position is about two hundred and fifty steps.

Bai Zhong simply took aim and pulled the trigger.

They only heard a rapid sound of breaking through the air, and then the sharp arrow hit the target more than two hundred steps away, and even penetrated the target.

Wang Jian shouted: "Bring it over quickly and take a look."

Several soldiers quickly stepped forward and brought over the archery targets and arrows.

The father and son looked at it for a while and said excitedly at the same time: "What a strong crossbow."

Sure enough, it has the power of the nine-stone bow.

Wang Jian asked: "General Bai, can you show it to me?"

"General, please!"

Bai Zhong handed it over.

Wang Jian and his son looked at it carefully for a long time. The structure was very complicated, but it was extremely powerful. There was no wood in the crossbow and it was all made of hard iron. They couldn't help but frown.

"It should be very difficult to imitate one. No wonder Han Wangan said there is only one in the world."

Wang Ben no longer struggled with the origin of the crossbow, but lamented that it was difficult to imitate.

Wang Jian agreed: "If General Bai wants to imitate even one, it will be difficult."

"It's indeed difficult. Just like those knives, I want to use it on the Iron Eagle Rui first."

Bai Zhong explained: "I have discussed with Wu Luo about the iron ore and have basically prepared it. Next, I want to present the crossbow and saddle to the king. After getting the king's consent, I will ask the king for a group of craftsmen to build it."

, the saddle is actually pretty good, it’s not difficult to make, your Majesty will probably agree, but this crossbow might be a bit troublesome.”

Wang Jian nodded in agreement. The saddle can improve the combat capability of the cavalry. It has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture, so he will definitely get approval.

It is difficult to make a crossbow, it will definitely take a long time, and it cannot meet the needs of war.

Wang Bi asked again: "Why doesn't General Bai make this crossbow at Wuluo?"

Wang Jian thought about the reason for a while and explained to Bai Zhong: "The sword can be made at Wuluo, and the glass can be used to save manpower, material and financial resources for the king, but things like crossbows are absolutely not possible. General Bai has considered it carefully.
