Be the Mayor From Today

"Yes." Niu Si nodded and turned to go out.

"Clang clang..."

The old blacksmith opened his stance, and the hammer dance was fierce. With one operation, he made a horseshoe in two minutes. After eight minutes, four horseshoes were assembled, and then two stirrups took seven minutes.

"Huhuhu..." The old blacksmith gasped, brought the water-soaked horseshoe and stirrup in front of Liu Feng, and shouted, "Sir City Lord, things are ready."

"Very good." Liu Feng took over. Although the craftsmanship is rough, it is already very good to be able to build it so quickly.

"Tap..."

Niu Si also just came in to report, "Master, the war horse is ready, it's in the yard."

"Let's go." Liu Feng nodded and said to the old blacksmith before leaving, "Take a hammer with you."

"Yes."

The group followed Liu Feng to the yard, and saw a war horse walking around, snorting from time to time, not very satisfied with the sound of the hammer.

This made Liu Feng raise his eyebrows, and he remembered that the adaptive training of the warhorse must also be carried out, otherwise he would be frightened by some sounds, but the camp would be bombed.

"Master, how are you going to put shoes on the horse?" En Li shook her fox ears and asked curiously, "These two things don't look like shoes anyway."

"Just watch." Liu Feng put aside the war horse training and instructed Niu Si, "Let people show the horse's hooves."

"Yes." Niu Si stepped forward and flexibly pushed the war horse to the ground, with all four hooves exposed.

"Old blacksmith, you flattened the horse's hoof, and nailed this horseshoe under the horse's hoof." Liu Feng said and handed over the horseshoe.

"Ah?" Everyone looked at Liu Feng in astonishment.

"Master, take a nail to a horse's hoof, won't this horse hurt?" En Li stared at her brown eyes and said in surprise, "This will hurt a lot, right? The horse can't walk at all."

"Really?" Liu Feng raised his eyebrows and said softly, "I'll ask you a question."

"Young master, you ask." The cat ear girl asked curiously.

Eliza and Fu stared at Liu Feng, waiting for his question.

"Does it hurt to cut your nails?" Liu Feng asked calmly, a smile flashing in his eyes.

"This..." Everyone was stunned again, looking down at their nails.

"Ah, I see." Enri's brown eyes lit up, and she raised her hand excitedly and shouted, "The hooves of a war horse are the same as our fingernails."

"So it is." Mina, Eliza, Niu Si and others suddenly realized.

"Yes, the reason why the horse's hoof is damaged is that the horse's hoof is not as hard as a stone. If a horseshoe that is harder than a stone is placed on the horse's hoof, there is no such concern at all, and the horse can run faster." Liu Feng said calmly.

For a war horse that runs frequently, the cuticle of the horse's hoof will be damaged very quickly, and the growth rate cannot keep up with the rate of wear and tear, so the unprotected horse's hoof will become full of blood, and will soon completely lose the ability to move, while the horseshoe Just a pair of iron soles.

"Young master, you are so smart." An Li stared at Liu Feng with wide brown eyes, admiringly looking at Liu Feng, the joke of letting the horse wear shoes, actually completed the counterattack.

Eliza's emerald green eyes flickered, why is such a simple thing no one can think of, but the Lord of the City easily thought about it.

"Big sister is really stupid." Frey muttered in a low voice.

When Mina heard the girl's words, she couldn't help but smile, the young master didn't seem to have let them down.

Chapter 0403 of the alien version of the human punching machine.

"Hiss..."

The warhorse neighed, watching the old blacksmith beat on its hooves, making it uneasy.

"Okay." The old blacksmith quickly nailed the four horseshoes and got up and left the war horse. He knew that the hammer in his hand made the war horse very uneasy.

"Get up." Niu Si released the war horse, patted the war horse's neck, and stroked it to soothe its emotions.

"hiss~~"

The warhorse neighed, and immediately struggled to stand up and walked around the yard. After a while, the warhorse suddenly stopped, lowered its head and shook it, and soon it was a long 'neigh', and it started to walk happily.

"It seems that the horse likes it very much." En Li flicked the fox's tail and chuckled, "These horse shoes are really good."

"Master, this horseshoe is a great event for the knights." Niu Si said seriously.

"Well, arrange a military workshop and start mass-producing horseshoes. We will nail all horseshoes to the war horses in five days, and do it in secret." Liu Feng's black eyes flickered, and he said solemnly, "Remember to keep it secret, I don't want the function of horseshoes to spread. "

The horseshoe must not be spread out for the time being. In fact, the confidentiality cannot be kept for long, but it is better to be later. The advantage of the early stage should be maintained for a period of time.

"Yes, I will tell everyone." Niu Si said seriously.

"An Li, give Niu Da the same order, the army is not allowed to spread the news of horseshoes." Liu Feng said solemnly.

"Yes." Enri took out a notepad and wrote the order.

"Master, what is this for?" Mina asked with blue eyes staring at the stirrup in Liu Feng's hand, "Is it also for war horses?"

"This is called a stirrup. It is installed on both sides of the saddle. It can help people get off the horse and use it to step on things when riding." Liu Feng handed the stirrup to Niu Si and pointed out how to install the stirrup.

The function of the stirrup is not only to help people get on the horse, but also to support the rider's feet when riding, so as to maximize the advantages of riding.

At the same time, it can effectively protect the safety of the rider, and can further liberate the rider's hands, which is a major auxiliary weapon for the cavalry; the cavalry who liberates both hands can fight more flexibly, like archery, avoiding the enemy's attack. Fall and so on.

When the knight was still worried about falling, his legs were tightly clamped to the horse's belly, one hand was holding the reins, and he was sitting on the horse's back honestly.

Liu Feng thought that at a certain period of the earth, it was because of the appearance of the stirrup that some knights could get the most out of them, and they became the mainstream combat force and swept one side.

"This..." Everyone was stunned, none of the people present were idiots, and they quickly figured out the benefits of stirrups.

"Master, stirrups can double the combat power of a knight." Niu Si exclaimed, many movements on horseback can be done, and the combat power can be more than doubled.

"Master, it's easy for people to know about the stirrup." An Li worried, how could someone steal the stirrup that her young master finally invented.

"Let's use it in the army for the time being." Liu Feng said helplessly, there is no way for the stirrup to leak. As long as the other party is seen, if the other party is not stupid, he will make one soon.

"The hides on both sides of the saddle can be extended so that the stirrups can be blocked." Eliza suddenly suggested, "Or get a covering cloth on the saddle, just enough to cover the stirrups."

"Huh?" Liu Feng raised his eyebrows, although this suggestion would waste more materials, it might be a good solution, he instructed Niu Si, "Eliza's method, let someone try it, it can't affect the cavalry Get up and down quickly and get a few samples out."

"Yes." Niu Si nodded and took out a notepad to write.

I don't know when it started, some high-level personnel in Xiyang City, everyone will carry a notepad with them.

"Old blacksmith, how's the punching machine?" Liu Feng suddenly remembered, turned his head and asked, "Have you tested the weight of the punching machine?"

"Lord City Lord, the trial production has already started, do you want to take a look?" the old blacksmith said cautiously.
