Siheyuan: I decide the fate of the world with my medical skills

After marking a relatively flat area along the Huangshui River, he continued,

"Establish a county in this area, and use the name Jincheng County, which is likened to "hard as gold" because of the solidity of copper casting. Also, build a temporary county town between Qinghai Lake and Huangshui River, and name it Linqiang City, as the seat of Jincheng County!"

After Fusu finished speaking, everyone, including Wei Liao and Meng Tian, ​​looked solemn, as if they were puzzled by this decision.

Taiwei Qiang Ju raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty, please allow me to make a suggestion." "Military action against the Xianling Qiang is not difficult to carry out; even destroying their territory and eliminating their roots is not a problem!"

The difficulty lies in the fact that the Qin State has to spend the winter in such a harsh and cold environment, while at the same time mobilizing a large number of workers to build a new city. Such a task is indeed full of difficulties and uncertainties.

Weiwei Yang Duan said bluntly, "This action uses too many war resources just to open up underdeveloped areas. Moreover, in winter, the frozen river makes the supply of food and other daily necessities seem stretched..."

Meng Tian, ​​the imperial steward, clasped his hands together and said, "It is certainly feasible to use cavalry tactics to deal with the Qiang people, but if the cavalry commander Li Xin is used as the main executor, the risk of casualties for our army may be quite high. Your Majesty, please think twice before acting!"

I know all the risks and difficulties, but I didn't decide to do this without thinking... Fusu felt the pressure. He began to explain patiently. He first looked at the Grand Commandant Qiang Ju and said, "I will give you a definite answer within the next ten days to eliminate your worries about the winter garrison and construction projects."

Then, he turned to look at Weiwei Yang Duan and said firmly: "Your Excellency's judgment is somewhat one-sided. That area is not a barren land!"

"Don't even mention the small land between Deshui and Huangshui. They only need simple land preparation and will be no worse than the farmland in Guanzhong. Take Qinghai Lake for example. I heard from the merchants that there is sea water flowing in it. What can sea water do? I don't need to say anything more, right?"

The knowledge that Qinghai Lake is used to dry salt in the salt flats in summer and extract alkali in winter is very clear to educated people... Oh, if you are not educated, then just understand it this way. Qin Shihuang no longer responded to Li Si or Yang Duanhe, but looked at Meng Tian and said, "Taifu, please follow me!"

"I dare not let Your Majesty ask me to please!" Meng Tian bowed his head slightly.

After the people in the hall of Xuanwu Gate left, Ying Zheng looked at Li Si who was looking around curiously and said, "Quick, bring Wu Zhui here!"

After a short while, a tall and strong warhorse with a black color and dark brown color was brought in.

Its fur reflected a bright light like steel, and under the light and shadow cast by the surrounding fires, it looked like a god descended from the sky!

This was a famous horse presented by the King of Yuezhi to Ying Zheng to celebrate his throne. It was said to have come from Dayuan in the far west and was the offspring of a celestial dragon (an imaginary god) and an ordinary horse.

But according to Ying Zheng's recollection, this special breed of horse is usually called Iketjin horse, also known as the blood horse (a legendary fine horse).

According to Meng Tian's judgment, this horse called "Sweat Blood" was only suitable for riding, traveling or watching horse performances, but not an ideal military warhorse.

Mainly, it has an active temperament and is not good at integrating with groups. Its small heart chamber does not work best when hitting. Its long body slows it down when turning sharply. Most importantly, its tall body makes it difficult to get up and down quickly.

In general, even though the Ferghana horses have various gorgeous appearance features and noble images, in practical use, they still cannot surpass the unique advantages of the Qin horses raised in the Yellow River bend area.

Ying Zheng felt that he was feeling jealous!

The reason why Dayuezhi only provided such a Ferghana horse instead of other rare species was because he thought in his heart, "Since such a precious item is given as a gift, the party that did not get it will certainly have a little resentment."

Tongyan took the reins and led Wuzhui for a short distance.

The saddle bridge makes a pleasant tapping sound when it steps lightly on the bluestone pavement.

But everyone's attention was focused on the saddle on the horse's back.

Their common saddles are usually designed to be higher to increase riding stability and comfort, while Wuzhui's saddle is a high-bridge saddle with a fully wrapped design, providing better overall comfort and safety protection.

Iron Hand (Meng Tian) immediately understood its importance. Before Qiang Yan could answer, he said, "Your Majesty, can I get on this saddle horse first to test its performance?"

"I am the Grand Marshal, please let the Grand Marshal experience it first." Qiang Wei stopped swaying his steps and bending over for a moment, and started walking with great vigor.

Meng Tian nodded politely and said, "Old General, please don't argue with me about this!"

"Hehehe, young people now, your fathers and I..." Qiang Wei took advantage of his old age and status (skill: "taking advantage of one's seniority") to start an argument.

In the end, the one who came out on top was Weiwei Yang Duanhe.

This plot cleverly integrates emotional conflicts between characters, the display of knowledge, and historical elements, adding rich details, a tight rhythm, and ups and downs to the storytelling, showing the characters' decision-making and emotional reactions in a specific context.

This adapted story fragment retains the core events by adjusting the narrative style and individual details, while constructing a more vivid and emotional scene based on ancient life and historical elements, adding a bit of fun and imagination to make readers more immersed in the story.

Yang Duanhe was confused at first, then with great joy, he expressed his gratitude to Fusu and then got on his horse.

"Quickly bring the spear!" Yang Duanhe, who was sitting on the horse at this time, looked extremely heroic. His behavior was very different from his usual cautious and careful behavior.

As soon as he saw Fusu nod, Meng Ying quickly removed the head of the spear, took the bare spear shaft and handed it to him.

Yang Duanhe showed no particular concern, took the spear, and galloped on his horse in the open space in front of the main hall. His two feet stepped firmly on the metal stirrups, and his arms swung the spear, showing a series of attacking postures.

“Snap! Snap!”

It was at this time that Meng Tian and others began to pay attention to the hoof sounds.

Suddenly, everyone, starting from the left and right prime ministers Wei Liao, stared at Yang Duanhe who was playing in the open space with cold and murderous eyes.

why?

If you are not a fish, how can you know the joy of a fish? Misfortune is the root of blessing, and blessing is the root of misfortune... Fusu couldn't help but think of this sentence in his heart.

Immediately there was heard the sound of Yang Duanhe being forced to dismount.

"Your Majesty, this is indeed a magical object!" Going around to the other side, Yang Duanhe expressed his approval with his hands cupped to his heart in reverence.

There is no doubt that the application of things like stirrups, horse boots and high saddles in this era is indeed incredible. Fusu had a smile on his face but did not express his approval.

"The purpose of the iron horse foot covers is somewhat similar to that of human wooden shoes, right?" Meng Yi held up one of the front legs of Wuzhui and demonstrated to the crowd.

"I call it 'Iron Boots'!" Fusu explained: "After installing this device, even if the cavalry charges at full speed, it can avoid damaging the horses' feet!"

"In comparison, ordinary saddles that only raise the back saddle to prevent knights from falling off the horse's back due to collisions, with these metal horse foot covers and metal stirrups, the knights can loosen the reins and use their weapons freely."

Qiang Wei sighed and said, "If our Qin knights were equipped with these three devices, with only 5,000 cavalrymen, we would be able to wipe out all 10,000 Wei soldiers without leaving a single one alive!"

You said that your Wei Wuzu were all small bow and arrow troops with long bows and arrows? You five cavalrymen want to beat the Wei Wuzu? Haha. For this, the veteran general Qiang Wei, as a veteran, said this, which only shows how old and smart he is, and how much he knows about the wickedness of human hearts. For his words, the monarch who was watching from the sidelines, that is, Fusu, just smiled faintly and complained silently in his heart.

Meng Tian asked: "When Li Xin is about to attack, can we deploy the above equipment to the cavalry in Longxi in advance?"

Fusu shook his head and said, "There is no time! From receiving the imperial order to starting to assemble, preparing food and fodder, and then preparing for an all-out attack, even if the slowest time is calculated, it will definitely be no less than 15 days! And whether it is a saddle or a boot, it needs to be customized according to the individual warhorse."

He sighed and continued, "What should we do? How should this be arranged?"

Fusu smiled and replied, "The Grand Coachman can find another solution to the problem."

Meng Yi made a polite remark and said, "Please allow me to ask you for detailed countermeasures."

Fusu smiled and began to explain his strategy.

He knew that this opportunity not only solved the problem of urgent equipment needs at the moment, but also laid a solid foundation for future military construction.

Both parties have achieved a combination of goals and interests, and built a cooperative relationship on this basis. He hopes that in this way,

It can not only effectively meet the needs of front-line combat troops, but also enhance the overall strength and military effectiveness of the soldiers.

Fusu's strategy not only focuses on current needs,

Moreover, long-term considerations are incorporated into higher-level planning. This is not only a solution to current problems, but also a forward-looking strategic layout that reflects the unique wisdom and foresight of leaders.

In the subsequent discussions, the focus was on how to optimize the use and distribution of the newly invented equipment, while considering the different challenges and needs that may arise in different regions and different battlefields.

The cooperation between the two sides will be able to produce the best results. While ensuring the combat effectiveness of the army, it will also achieve effective allocation of material resources, promote the enhancement of overall combat readiness, and make positive contributions to the country's strategic development goals.

If we want to send items like iron hooves to the Longxi area and have them tailor-made for war horses there, there will not be enough time.
