I was engaged in infrastructure construction in the Han Dynasty [Transmigration Book]

Chapter 432 [2 More] 432

With the sound of horseshoes, the soldiers who had been lying or sitting in the camp quickly got up and equipped their weapons.

They were already fast, but those cavalry were even faster.

Liu Che squinted his eyes and looked a little strangely and asked, "Why do these horses look somewhat similar to bloody horses?"

Liu Tan took a cautious look at Liu Che, and said in a low voice, "This...is an improved breed that we got before. It's a crossbreed of sweaty BMW and other horses."

A bloody horse is not suitable as a war horse, but it doesn't mean that all its characteristics are not suitable for combat. Think about it, if there is a horse that can have the endurance and docility of a war horse, plus the outbreak of a bloody horse, wouldn't it be perfect?

Of course, such a perfect horse breed only exists in the imagination in this era, but the breed of sweat-blooded BMW crossed with other horses is indeed good. The equipment of the elite regiment.

As for the rest of the army...sorry, there aren't that many horses.

There will not be so many new horse breeds in a while, and the best batch of breeds must be used as stallions. If they are really used, they will definitely have to wait for two years before they can be fully equipped.

Liu Che doesn't care. His love for sweaty BMWs has cooled down since he got them. Now he still likes sweaty BMWs, but he won't treat them as treasures and keep others from touching them. Hun, then there is nothing to displease him.

When the cavalry approached, the infantry had just put on their equipment, and for a while everyone seemed a little reluctant to continue watching, as if the infantry would die tragically under the hooves of the horses in the next moment.

However, in fact, when the cavalry really approached them, the infantry dispersed instantly, and everyone seemed to be holding a spool in their hands.

Liu Che leaned forward slightly and watched seriously without saying a word, but the officials behind him were not as calm as he was. They all stretched their necks to watch anxiously, and couldn't help but mutter in a low voice while watching: "Hey, What does this mean, how can you win by running like this? How can a person outrun a horse?"

Seeing that the infantry were running out of formation, which was very different from yesterday, all the officials couldn't sit still.

Liu Tan couldn't help but smiled slightly. The reason why the big man is strong is because these officials may have their own factions and their own careful thinking on weekdays, but when facing the Huns, they are absolutely unanimous.

Just like now, Liu Tan has a powerful army and many people are uneasy, fearing that it will become a force that is not easy to control, but when simulating a battle with the Huns, these people can't wait for Liu Tan to have this A team can directly wipe out the Huns.

As they say, a horse can't run on human legs, but what if a horse can't run?

After the infantry dispersed, the chasing cavalry suddenly slowed down for some reason, and not only slow, even a few cavalrymen fell off their horses directly, and several horses fell directly to the ground!

This turn of events made many people feel dazzled. They didn't understand what happened at all. They couldn't help turning their heads to look at Liu Tan. That suspicious look seemed to accuse him of cheating.

Just as Liu Tan was about to say something, Liu Che narrowed his eyes and asked, "What are those infantrymen holding?"

The officials behind him may not be able to see clearly, but Liu Che can clearly see that those infantrymen often throw things in their hands to their comrades when they run, and after they throw such things, the cavalry gradually becomes restrained , If you dare not run, even if you don't run, you will be dragged down.

Liu Tan said with a smile: "Father is wise, what they are holding is a spool."

"Spool?" Liu Che was surprised.

Liu Tan replied: "Yes, in fact, they seem to run in a random manner, but in fact there is a certain pattern. I have studied it before, and even the cavalry of the Huns will have a certain formation when they charge over. And in these In the formation, in order to leave space for each other to run and swing their knives, the cavalry are not very close to each other. In this case, knowing their formation can completely allow the infantry to intersperse them while running. Of course This is also dangerous, so they need to use the shield in their hands flexibly to block the enemy's attack."

Liu Che glanced at him and said, "You haven't said what those spools are for."

Liu Tan immediately changed the topic back and said: "Because of this distance, I asked the soldiers to hold two spools in their hands, and on the spool was a soft iron wire. They will throw one end of the soft iron wire to their colleagues. Of course, the position of the throw is also optional. Anyway, after the throw is over, these cavalry will be caught in a net like a fish. In the process, those horses are not caught. If the soft iron wire cuts the leg, it means being tripped, anyway, if it is done properly, this batch of charge cavalry will be useless."

Liu Che carefully watched the battle situation below. In fact, at this time, there was basically nothing to watch, the victory and defeat had already been decided.

However, Liu Che didn't say anything until the soldiers retreated to adjust to rest, but he just tapped the paddles in a leisurely manner while thinking about something.

Sitting next to Liu Che, Liu Tan was at a loss for a moment. He didn't know whether it was a problem with the martial arts performance or this method was not good enough. In fact, this is also a helpless method. If possible, Liu Tan would prefer to train a large number of cavalry.

However, the number of horses in the northern border country has not yet increased, and even if it does, it may have to supply all the big men, so they can only take the lead.

Liu Che was silent for a while and said: "Although this method looks good, it is very difficult to operate."

Liu Tan also admitted: "Yes, ordinary soldiers basically can't do this. The elite regiment has practiced for a long time, and the price of soft iron wire is also very high. It is not easy to deploy it on a large scale."

Liu Che sighed: "Take your time."

Liu Tan was a little dazed, wondering why Liu Che suddenly became melancholy.

And Liu Che's emotions moved the other officials. These officials didn't know what they thought, and they looked at Liu Tan with sympathy.

After Liu Tan followed Liu Che back with question marks in his head, he couldn't help asking, "Father, what's the matter? Is there something wrong with today's martial arts performance?"

At this time, Liu Che instantly returned to his usual appearance, glanced at Liu Tan and said with a smile, "There's nothing wrong."

After speaking, he rubbed his son's head and praised: "Very good."

Liu Tan asked a little strangely: "Then why were you unhappy just now?"

Liu Che said meaningfully: "It's not that I'm unhappy, I just want to make them feel that I'm unhappy."

This sentence is a bit convoluted. Liu Tan heard the superficial meaning, but he didn't want to understand the deeper meaning. For example...why do those people think he is unhappy?

In the end, before he could ask, Liu Che had already started to chase people away and said, "Okay, I'm tired and need to rest, you should hurry back to your place."

Liu Tan came back to his senses and said, "My son's bed is also here!"

Liu Che waved his sleeves: "Shaolai is here with me, go back and go back."

So Liu Tan was kicked out of Liu Che's bedroom just like that, and when he stood at the door, he almost doubted life.

Falling out of favor so quickly?

The emperor's heart, the sea needle!

Lu Xuan laughed badly beside him, Liu Tan turned his head and said angrily, "You're still laughing!"

Lu Xuan coughed lightly and said, "No, let's go, you've been tired for a day, you should also rest."

Liu Tan walked with his hands behind his back and asked angrily, "Do you think my father doesn't love me anymore?"

Lu Xuan couldn't help but laughed again, Liu Tan rolled up his sleeves and said fiercely, "If you laugh again, I'll beat you!"

Lu Xuan easily took the fist he swung, and while no one was around, he kissed his hand and apologized in a low voice: "Okay, okay, it's my fault for not smiling."

Liu Tan pulled his hand back in an instant, gave him a blank look, looked back at the door of Liu Che's bedroom with some incomprehension, and asked wonderingly, "What does the emperor mean?"

Lu Xuan came to Liu Tan's side, turned slightly sideways and whispered, "Your Majesty made it for those people to see."

Liu Tan thought about the appearance of those officials, and instantly understood what Lu Xuan meant.

Those who were able to travel with Liu Che these days must be more outstanding in figuring out what to do. They are not stupid, so when Liu Che is sad, they understand what Liu Che is sad about better than Liu Tan.

Then these people began to feel melancholy along with Liu Che, and they would even make up their own minds to make themselves even more melancholy.

Liu Tan was a little unhappy: "Father, why bother? These people are just for him to see."

The dignified emperor has to act in front of officials, or an emperor like Liu Che has to bother to put on a show with them, why are these people?

Lu Xuan said while walking: "Probably because I don't want these people to dictate the military of the northern border country."

The emperor had already clearly shown that he felt sorry for the king of the northern region. Whether it was because he felt sorry for the king who had money and could not enjoy it, or he felt sorry for other things. Anyway, he put on a posture, and if others looked for things, Liu Che would deal with them.

Liu Tansi thinks that he still needs a victory to shut up those people's mouths. The previous battle... To be honest, he was a little guilty. After all, if Lu Xuan hadn't arrived in time, he would have won or lost. easy to say.

Moreover, defense and offense are two different concepts. If the offense can also win a victory, then it will be more convincing. It's a pity that he will try his best to stop him if he wants to fight Huo Guang now.

The Guan market has already opened, and I don't know how the soy products are selling...

Liu Tan was thinking about this and was walking all the way to the bedroom when Miao Rui asked, "Does Your Highness want to take a bath?"

Liu Tan came back to his senses and replied, "Okay."

Then when he turned around, he saw Lu Xuan following behind him and asked, "Why are you still here?"

Lu Xuan immediately looked aggrieved: "Ah Tan, is this just throwing it away after you want to use it?"
