Chapter 16 Horseshoes 3

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Chang'an is quiet at night. Chang'an people have long been accustomed to staying behind closed doors after the sound of drums in the quiet streets. In this era, there are no TVs and mobile phones. Except for the wealthy families who sometimes hold a "joyful" dinner, most people go to bed early.

After getting off the ground, even the military camp is no exception. Except for a few people sitting vigil in front of the bonfire, all the other tents are snoring like thunder...

In addition to the sound of insects and snoring, the eyelids of the exaggerated night watchman of the military camp gradually drooped. When the general on guard saw such a scene, he just muttered and walked past. Is there anything in Chang'an City that is worth keeping vigil at?

But this quiet scene was soon broken by a group of people. On the street, Chai Shao pulled Bai Tiwu and ran very fast with his face full of eagerness!

The poor white-hoofed blackbird had uncomfortable hooves. He was chewing hay in the stable just now. In the blink of an eye, he was pulled forward and ran wildly. How fast can a three-legged horse run? But Chai Shao didn't care and pulled hard.

He drove the white-hoofed crow forward, and the poor horse was so choked that its tongue almost came out!

One man and one horse fled away, followed closely by Shimin and the few remaining strong men. Even Xue Shou, who was as weak as a scholar, was not left behind. Only Xiao Han was panting like a dog. If it weren't for Zhang Qiang

If you pull him, he will fall to the ground!

What a bunch of animals! The golden roasted lamb had just been served on the table. Xiao Han didn't even have time to smell the alluring aroma before he was dragged out by Zhang Qiang. At least these people knew that it was too troublesome to go to the blacksmith shop at this time.

, and it was not conducive to keeping secrets, so a group of people rushed over according to the military camp!

At the gate of the camp, the semi-confused sentry had just yawned. He looked around with drooped eyelids. He saw a dark hole. Apart from the chirping of insects, the only sound left was the sound of grunting... He stretched out and found a comfortable position to lean against the wood.

On the fence, I closed my eyes and was just thinking about chatting with Duke Zhou when I heard a rush of footsteps breaking the tranquility of the night.

"What's going on? Who?"

The sentry was not a newbie either. When he heard something was wrong, he immediately jumped up. His eyes that he had not been able to open a moment ago suddenly opened wide and he looked hard towards the place where the sound came from!

The footsteps are getting closer and closer, and among the scattered footsteps, there is also a very strange sound of horse hooves. Normally, the sound of horse hooves is a "dah, dah, dah, dah," but it's weird today!

The sound of horse hooves is "ta da... da!" The sound of two light and one heavy sounds is particularly strange at night!

The sentry couldn't see how many people there were in the darkness. Just when he was about to reach out and strike the golden gong, a captain rushed over from behind, grabbed the gong and hammer with his hands, and at the same time gave the sentry a fierce look!

Didn't you see that the people in front of you were His Highness King Qin's Ba Ba and Manager Chai Shao? Are you blind? You still dare to bang the gong rashly. Who can afford it if the camp is bombed?!

The soldier was so stared at by the captain that he sweated all over his body. At this time, he also saw the white-hooked crow in front of him. Although the white-hooked crow jumped like a toad today, Supervisor Chai Shao next to him was really serious.

!

Wiping the sweat from his head, the sentry quickly followed the captain down to open the door for Manager Chai Shao. He almost made a big mistake just now. If he doesn't work harder now, he will be killed by this nagging boss tonight...

Seeing that the gate of the camp was open, Chai Shao rushed into the camp at almost a galloping speed. The captain was carrying the wooden gate and was still thinking about why he didn't just ride a horse and insisted on running with him. Suddenly he saw behind him

Another group of people rushed over!

"Damn it, who is it! Are you going crazy tonight?"

The captain cursed in his heart, even if you are the general manager, but the emperor has just said that entry and exit are not allowed, you just break into the military camp at night in such an open and honest manner. This is too disrespectful to the emperor, and may even harm him!

"Damn it, if you are just a little miscellaneous fish, I have to lock you out today and let me reflect on it!!"

Secretly making up their mind, the captain and the sentry next to him opened their eyes wide and waited for the arrival of this group of people!

Because of the lights burning at the camp gate, it took more than ten steps in front of the camp gate to see who was coming. When Chai Shao had already rushed into the camp, a group of people from behind came roaring towards him. The captain's eyes widened with excitement.

When I looked carefully, my eyes almost popped out! Oh my god, this little miscellaneous fish turned out to be the King of Qin!

"The last general, Sun Qi, meets His Highness the King of Qin!"

He stared at this group of people with wide eyes, and the captain didn't even say that he would shut them out!

Without saying a word, he immediately cupped his fists and saluted, but King Qin, who was always known for his courtesy to virtuous subordinates, rushed in directly with Chai Shao behind him this time without saying a word, which made the captain feel disappointed...

Not only did King Qin not stop, several big men behind him also ran past him in a gust of wind. Finally, a young man who ran like a dog was dragged in out of breath...

"What on earth happened? Can anyone tell me?" The captain held the camp door and looked innocently at the sentry next to him, but the sentry looked at him with an even more innocent look: "How do I know what happened?

Already?"

The army is stationed in a very orderly manner. Generally speaking, the combat troops are in the front, and the auxiliary and logistical forces are in the middle or behind. Chai Shao is in charge of the army. Wherever the blacksmith is, he is Menqing! When you enter the camp gate, you don't even turn a corner.

, led a group of people and rushed towards the rear army without stopping.

I don’t know how many sleeping people I woke up along the way. I hurriedly arrived at the rear army. A man with a beard who was traveling with me immediately rushed into a tent, followed by several scoldings and complaints.

A shirtless and stocky blacksmith was driven out like a duck by a man!

Making a fire and burning iron, several blacksmiths were flying up and down with sledgehammers. They all showed off their special skills. If it weren't for the anxious look on King Qin's face, the blacksmiths would probably have to do some tricks to open Xiao Han's eyes.

!

Oh my God, the King of Qin personally came to see the old man forging iron. How long can I keep playing like this?! With my face! I am willing to die from exhaustion today!

It was time for a cup of tea. Really, Xiao Han didn't even catch his breath. Four horseshoes emitting white smoke were placed in front of him. Several blacksmiths still looked like they were still unfinished, with twinkling eyes.

, seems to want to give another sword to their commander.

Xiao Han, who had finally rested, got up from the ground, stacked a few horseshoes together, squatted down and took a closer look. The group of people behind them all followed suit and squatted down to take a look. As for what they were looking at?

Who cares! Didn’t you see that King Qin and Chai Shao were almost crowded together?

Four horseshoes are stacked together, no matter the size or thickness, even the small holes in the middle are round and smooth. It is hard to imagine that they are all made by hand!

"Okay! Awesome!" Xiao Han stood up and gave a thumbs up in admiration. The eyes of several blacksmiths were so praised that their eyes became slits. If he hadn't been afraid of being rude in front of King Qin, he would have laughed loudly by now!

The blacksmith didn't laugh loudly, but the white-toed crow was screaming in horror! Its underdeveloped brain couldn't figure out why these people put it in such a strange posture...

The four wooden stakes as thick as bowls were driven into the ground by the team leader who rushed after hearing the news. The soldiers had no chance to play! The poor white-hoofed blackbird had three legs tied to the wooden stakes, and only a few feet were left.

I don’t know whether to lift or put down the injured leg...

Instructing the blacksmith to drive a few nails, Xiao Han came to Bai Ti Wu with a very "satisfied" expression, pointed at a few corps commanders who raised their heads and held their chests high, trying hard to show off in front of King Qin. The commander said: "Guys

, lift its hooves!"

Several low-level officers were confused about Xiao Han's identity, but seeing that he was walking next to the King of Qin, he must be an important person, so without saying anything, they grabbed the hoof of the white-tied crow and stretched it out in front of Xiao Han.

The white hoofed black horse literally means a black body and snow-white hooves. Of course, this is also true. There is a ring of white hair on all four horse hooves, which looks very eye-catching in the dark coat color!

Only now did Xiao Han finally know why he gave this horse such a strange name. He looked at the long snow-white hair on the horse's hooves and blurted out: "Drink! Dark clouds are treading on the snow!"

Zhang Qiang was holding a knife behind him. When he saw that Xiao Han had not yet performed a miracle, he immediately became unhappy and threw the big knife into Xiao Han's arms. "Stop dragging the article. I have read enough. Hurry up!"

"Tch, Xiong Xiong!" Xiao Han looked at Zhang Qiang with incomparable contempt, and began to measure it with a big knife. No matter how stupid the poor Bai Ti Wu was, he knew that the man in front of him was not like a good man with a snow-white big knife, twisting it

The neck screamed desperately, and the raised front hooves were also trying to retract. Unfortunately, the arrogant man in the army had nothing else, but he had a lot of strength. With several big hands working hard together, he was stunned and couldn't hold the white hoof.

move!

Xiao Han held a knife in one hand and touched the horse's hoof with the other. The horse's hoof had been severely worn due to running all year round, and there was a diagonal crack in the middle. Although it was not deep, it had seriously affected the horse's walking!

After telling the people in front of him that he would not let go until he was beaten to death, Xiao Han calmly held the knife in both hands and began to cut away from the bottom of the horse's hoof.

However, Xiao Han's knife skills were really unsightly. Seeing Bai Ti Wu's violent struggle, Xiao Li Zi next to him couldn't bear to watch. He stabbed Chai Shao next to him. Chai Shao understood and stepped forward to take Xiao Han's hand.

Use the knife and ask how it works. After a few cuts, the horse's hoof will be cut extremely smooth!

Sure enough, professional things should be left to professionals. Xiao Han immediately applauded and handed the horseshoe to Chai Shao, "Brother Chai, come and install this..."

Chai Shao took the horse's shoe blankly. He didn't know why he suddenly became a small worker, but looking at the anxious expressions of the people next to him, he might as well do it...

Measure the horseshoe onto the horse's hoof, drive the nails into the reserved holes, and do the same with the other legs. When everything is completed, release the horse's legs, and Baitiwu tries to take a few steps on the ground.

The horseshoe made a crisp ticking sound when it stepped on the ground. Little Plum's eyes had turned from black to red, and then from red to green!

"Everyone, stay back!!! Everyone present is not allowed to leave! Seal this place! Anyone who dares to escape will be killed without mercy!"

Following General Chai Shao's loud roar, the scene immediately became chaotic. Several blacksmiths who had just shown off their power immediately squatted under the stove, and the corps commanders and the like were immediately organized into a row by Zhang Qiang, and all of them were led by Zhang Qiang.

When they reached the side, the soldiers watching next to them squatted directly on the ground!

Li Shimin next to him was so excited that his whole body was shaking like chaff. After shivering for a long time, he finally remembered the importance of confidentiality!

He stretched out his hand to call a strong man who was eating with him, and didn't know what he said in his ear. He saw that the man's face immediately turned pale, then he nodded fiercely and ran out of the camp.

!

Xiao Han never thought that just for a few horseshoes, he could cause such a turmoil. Looking at the looks in the eyes of the people next to him, they must have murderous intentions! Thinking of those novels and TV shows that would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one person go, a wave of excitement rose in his heart.

A chill!

"I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me!"

Xiao Han thinks that he is not a gentleman, but he is not a villain either. He has never killed a chicken in his previous life, but this time he has implicated so many people! I hope Li Shimin is as kind as in history. If it is really because of himself

, with so many people involved, how will you deal with yourself?

Thinking of this, Xiao Han's pride suddenly turned cold. He quickly stepped forward and came to Li Shimin. He raised his hands and said nervously: "Your Highness, King Qin, this thing is too simple. We can't block the news. All they have to do is seize one."

Horses can be imitated at a glance, so I think what we can do now is to install all our own horses quickly and get a head start!"
