Chapter 30: Retreat the Huns 500 Miles



He hurriedly shouted to the people around him, asking them to quickly move the counted items outside.

Prince Fusu had been flipping through the booklet given by the immortal in the room.

I didn't expect that the immortal would send me something.

He couldn't help but look forward to it.

I wonder what kind of rare treasure it is this time?

He walked quickly to a box and opened it carefully, and a pile of arc-shaped protective gear appeared in front of him.

Prince Fusu continued to rummage through the box and found a white booklet.

After reading the immortal text for a long time, he could recognize a few words.

This box has "Saddle" written on it?

Is it related to horses?

...

...

He guessed that the booklet might be an instruction manual on how to use a saddle.

He quickly picked up the pamphlet and, through the combination of pictures and text, used his own understanding ability to roughly guess the purpose of the saddle.

"Quickly bring a horse! This is the horse harness given by the immortal!"

Soon, a spirited warhorse was brought over.

Its fur is black and shiny, and its eyes are bright and lively.

Prince Fusu stepped forward, gently stroked the horse's neck, and whispered a few soothing words.

When the horse was no longer nervous and started to approach him, he skillfully installed the saddle on its back.

Seeing that Prince Fusu looked like a weak scholar, Zhang Han suggested with some concern: "Sir, this horse has a fierce temper. Let me try it first."

"No need." Prince Fusu smiled and rejected Zhang Han's kindness.

Prince Fusu grabbed the reins with both hands and pulled hard. His body flew into the air and he easily climbed onto the horse.

Then, he subconsciously clamped the horse's body with his legs and abdomen as he usually did when riding a horse.

It was at this moment that he suddenly realized the great benefits that the saddle brought.

In the past, they used their legs and abdomens to directly contact the horses. After riding for a long time, their legs would often be injured and bleed due to constant friction.

Moreover, without the support of a saddle, controlling the horse can only rely on the strength of the hands and superb equestrian skills.

But now, with the saddle, the rider can better fix his position with the saddle.

This greatly reduces the amount of control required on the horse, allowing more attention to be focused on combat or other tasks.

In other words, with saddles, the Qin army would be able to win more easily when fighting against the Huns who were good at riding and shooting!

Meng Tian didn't know that the immortal had given him another gift. He was still seriously arranging his tactics when he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves. He turned around and saw Prince Fusu riding a majestic war horse towards him.

Fusu held the reins in one hand and the whip in the other. He swung it gently, and there was a crisp and loud "snap" sound.

The warhorse immediately began to run quickly.

Fusu sat on the horse, his posture upright, his sleeves fluttering in the wind, like a young man in fine clothes and riding a vigorous horse.

His movements were smooth and natural, without any sense of effort.

After riding around, Fusu returned to Meng Tian and asked with a smile, "General, do you want to try it?"

Meng Tian's eyes were full of excitement when he heard this, "Then let's run two laps."

After saying that, he strode forward and jumped onto the horse.

Compared with Fusu's elegance and gentleness, Meng Tian appears more bold and brave.

As soon as he got on the horse, he immediately felt the difference of this horse and couldn't help but marvel at it.

He shook the reins vigorously, and the warhorse rushed out like an arrow, with lightning speed and great momentum.

Meng Tian shouted excitedly: "The things given by the immortals are really good!"

He galloped freely on horseback, feeling the whistling of the wind and the shaking of the earth, and felt extremely happy.

If it can be applied on the battlefield, it will definitely play a huge role and enhance the combat effectiveness of the Qin army.

"Zhang Han, you also ride a horse and practice with this general."

Meng Tian looked at Zhang Han who was busy and shouted loudly.

Hearing this, Zhang Han did not refuse. He put down the work in his hands, found another horse, tied the saddle on it, and climbed on the horse.

He was responsible for counting and distributing supplies, so naturally he needed to know the purpose of these items given by the immortals.

The two practiced a couple of times on horseback, and neither of them needed to put too much effort into controlling the horse, so they fought much more easily than usual.

In just a moment, the two men got off their horses, sweating profusely.

Zhang Han still needed to continue counting the goods, so he took his leave directly to Meng Tian and Prince Fusu.

Prince Fusu walked up to Meng Tian and said, "I just saw that the immortal also gave a lot of horse equipment, especially horseshoes, which can greatly reduce the loss of horses."

Meng Tian nodded in agreement: "Yes, with the help of the immortal, we must speed up the pace of preparing our troops to meet the enemy. I'll leave the logistics to you, young master."

Prince Fusu quickly cupped his hands and said, "I don't deserve it, and I really leave the front line in your hands, General."

Meng Tian smiled, patted Fusu on the shoulder, then turned and left.

Li Rongrong slumped on the sofa, motionless.

It's too tiring to work around the clock to collect supplies.

It is hard to imagine how many rolls those factories have and how they can deliver them all within two days.

She sighed and thought at the same time.

Weapons, medicines, and horse gear have all been delivered.

Now the only things left to be collected are the cloth and military coats that were ordered earlier.

Compared to the things that are urgently needed for the war over there, cloth and other things are not urgent.

The only thing she could do to help was to provide good logistics, and she believed that Prince Fusu would not let her down.

After all, that was Prince Fusu!

He is the successor of the Qin Dynasty cultivated by Emperor Qin Shi Huang!

Although history says that Prince Fusu was too soft-hearted, he was first-class in both literary and military strategy.

She believed that in history they were able to guard the border well, and this time they would be able to defeat the Huns!

Just as Li Rongrong hoped, this victory came quickly.

The Qin army, equipped with new equipment, killed the Huns without leaving a single soldier behind as soon as they appeared.

Originally, Maodun wanted to use a formation to trap Meng Tian and his vanguard troops.

As a result, the Qin army directly took out the air nail gun and caught Maodun off guard.

With saddles, they had more energy to deal with the attacks of the Huns.

They even had time to use air nail guns to help their colleagues fight off enemies who were attacking from behind.

It just so happened that Gongshu Zi, inspired by the pneumatic nail gun, quickly made a batch of lightweight cloud crossbows, which were then used in conjunction with the Qin crossbows.

The Qin army was in high spirits and killed decisively along the way, forcing the Huns to abandon their armor and flee in panic.

Not only that, they also broke through the Huns' encirclement in one fell swoop and successfully destroyed the Huns' formation.

Then, the Qin army pursued the Huns and chased them to a place five hundred miles away.

There was a cheer on the battlefield:

"Victory!"

"We won!"

An old Qin soldier looked towards the direction of Xianyang City and said: "Great! As long as I accumulate enough military merits, I can exchange them for fertile fields and let my son live a happy life!"

Another young soldier echoed, "I think so too, but I want to stand out and bring honor to my family!"
