After my soul traveled to ancient times, I don't want to be cannon fodder

"It just suddenly occurred to me that the cavalry of the Northern Di and Western Rong are the most powerful. We in Dayong also have cavalry, but because we are trapped in the inland, our riding skills are always inferior to those of the grassland warriors."

"Plus, the war horses are too worn out. Every year we have to eliminate a large number of them. It is really a loss for the country."

"If there is a way to reduce the loss of warhorses and allow soldiers to ride horses as if they were walking on flat ground, then the combat effectiveness of our Dayong cavalry will definitely be increased several times!"

"Oh?" Emperor Yong was indeed interested and asked immediately, "What method do you have in mind?"

"Hmm...for example..." Zhong Ning pondered for a moment, then gestured with his hands, "For example, we can put shoes on the horses, just like the shoes we wear now, which are to protect the soles of the feet from injury."

"For example, we could design a tool that can be straddled on a horse, hung on the horse, and help secure it..."

"Of course, this is just a preliminary idea. We need to discuss the details with the craftsmen to see how we can put this idea into practice..."

Murong Yun's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but ask, "Royal sister, can horses wear shoes?"

"Of course, you'll know when it's done..."

"Royal sister, I want to go too..." Murong Yun's eyes were filled with anticipation and desire, and then he looked at Emperor Yong.

Emperor Yong frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "It's great that you have this intention... Everything can only be accomplished if you have a will... Go ahead, I'll wait and see..."

"Father..." Murong Yun looked over eagerly.

Emperor Yong thought that since he didn't have much time left, he should be more tolerant. He immediately waved his hand and said, "Go ahead. Take your guards with you. Don't go alone..."

"Yes, thank you, Father..."

Murong Yun stood up excitedly, stood in front of Zhong Ning, and raised his youthful and lovely smile, "Royal sister, let's go together..."

Zhong Ning touched his little head, bowed, and then left with Murong Yun.

"Aren't you going to take a look?" Emperor Yong turned to ask Murong Xin. A trace of envy flashed across Murong Xin's eyes, but he shook his head gently, "Xin'er, accompany father for dinner!"

"Well, you are worthy of being my daughter!" Emperor Yong felt relieved in his heart, and the smile on his face became even wider.

As a king or father, you need to worry more about your children.

Those who have talent should use their talent.

If you have no talent, just be filial.

the other side.

Murong Yun followed Zhong Ning out of the palace and headed all the way to the Military Arsenal. After arriving, Zhong Ning used charcoal pencil to roughly outline his intentions.

Several craftsmen communicated with each other, then ordered someone to bring a war horse, measured its approximate size, and then expanded the design based on Zhong Ning's description.

Horseshoes are the simpler of the bunch.

So the finished product comes out very quickly.

However, when the horseshoe was being put on, the horse seemed a little uncomfortable and was not very cooperative. Zhong Ning used his skill [Voice of Beasts], which allows him to communicate with small animals, to explain to the horse the significance of putting on the horseshoe.

It was explained that this was to protect its hooves from getting hurt, and the horse then became much more obedient.

After the horseshoes were set, Zhong Ning jumped on first and rode the horse for two test laps in an open area.

Murong Yun showed surprise. The horse seemed to understand what people said. It was so sensible!

He looked at the big horse that was taller than him, silently took a step back, and decided to go back and ride his little red!

By the way, he also wants to buy a set for Xiaohong.

Waiting for this year's spring hunting will surely dazzle everyone.

at the same time.

It happened that General Cheng came to the Arsenal to allocate weapons for the preparation of the Military Academy. When he saw Zhong Ning riding a horse and galloping on the playground, he couldn't help but show a strange look on his face.

Princess Zhaohua has always been cautious in her actions. Why would she choose to train horses here?

The minor official who was in charge of receiving him explained it to him.

General Cheng then realized that Princess Zhaohua had invented several new things, and they were magical items that could reduce the loss of war horses. He immediately became interested!

"Your Highness, I heard that you put shoes on this horse. I am very curious. I wonder how this horse is doing compared to before?"

Seeing Zhong Ning returning on horseback, General Cheng immediately stepped forward and asked loudly.

"The horse is running happily, but for those who are not good at riding and shooting, it is still a bit difficult to get used to it. After the other two pieces are completed, it should be better!"

"The other two?" General Cheng's eyes lit up.

"I have already communicated with the craftsmen, and I think they can all be made in the next two days. If General Cheng is interested, you may come and try it out..."

"Oh? Really? Then I'll be waiting..." General Cheng's voice was like thunder, and his shrewd yet honest face was full of anticipation.

"Then I'll leave it to you to supervise. I have something important to attend to, so I'll go ahead..."

"Princess Zhaohua, don't worry. I will definitely live up to my mission..." General Cheng smiled with wrinkles all over his face, but Murong Yun didn't want to leave.

"Royal sister..." Murong Yun tugged at Zhong Ning's clothes and pleaded softly. He didn't want to go back to study so early. The teacher had been teaching more strictly these days, and he didn't want to go back and listen to all that nonsense.

"Then what should we do? How about you stay here with General Cheng and let him give you some pointers?" Zhong Ning looked at Murong Yun, then at General Cheng.

Murong Yun had no objection.

He was eager to return to the palace later.

But General Cheng was a little embarrassed because, to him, the second prince looked too fair and tender, and he was afraid that giving him instructions would scare the child again.

Zhong Ning gave a wink, and Murong Yun immediately understood. He turned to General Cheng and bowed, "Please teach me, General!"

General Cheng helped the man up with one hand and said bluntly, "Well, it just so happens that I also need to pick some weapons for the military academy today. Today, I will also teach you how to identify and test these weapons..."

"Yes... Thank you, old general..." Murong Yun smiled and followed the old general happily into the warehouse of the Military Equipment Bureau.

Not long after, the voice of General Cheng was heard from inside, introducing the effects of different weapons. Zhong Ning gave some instructions and then turned and left.

With General Cheng protecting him, I think Murong Yun will be fine.

It wasn't too late for her to go out today, and she needed to go back urgently. There was a frightened Fang Ping in the mansion, and Li Yuanche who had suffered a double blow mentally and physically during the day.

As soon as she arrived at the courtyard, Murong Lan asked for a meeting.

She came to the mansion to visit Li Yuanche this afternoon and learned that Li Yuanche had suffered new injuries in addition to his previous injuries.

And this new injury was inflicted by Zhong Ning himself.

Thinking of the pale and helpless face of her beloved lying on the bed, Murong Lan couldn't help but feel a little angry, and her eyes were filled with pity and resentment when she looked at Zhong Ning.

"Sister Ning, didn't you say you wouldn't hurt him?" Murong Lan couldn't help but ask, completely forgetting how many slaps she received from Zhong Ning last time.
