Guan Yan ordered the establishment of the Dragon and Tiger Cavalry the next day, led by the Longxiang Captain and the Tiger Wing Captain, and Ma and Pang De were assigned to two positions. It was also considered to be the name of the "Dragon and Tiger Cavalry".

Ten days later, all thirty-six craftsmen in the craftsman workshop moved to Yecheng and began to build stirrups on a large scale.

One day, two soldiers led a horse from the schoolyard, and the horse limped, as if it was a problem.

Guan Yan stopped asking, "What disease does this horse have?"

The soldier hurriedly bowed and replied, "It's not that he is sick, the horse's hooves have been worn out and cannot go to the battlefield!"

There is another saying? Guan Yan walked forward and raised the horse's hind legs. He saw that most of the gray-black cuticles outside the horse's hooves had worn out, revealing the white horny slightest.

The horse's hooves are composed of two layers. One layer that comes into contact with the ground is a hard keratin about 2-3 cm thick, and the other layer above is a keratin. When the horse's hooves come into contact with the ground, they will fall off quickly due to friction from the ground and corrosion by the accumulated water.

Guan Yan only knew that there should be a "u"-shaped iron palm on the horse's hoof, but I really don't know how to put the iron palm on the horse's hoof.

Guan Yan patted the dust on his hands. With the last stirrup incident, Guan Yan was not so fussy: "Can you know what the horseshoe is?"

Everyone shook their heads in confusion, indicating that they did not know.

It's true! Guan Yan sighed in his heart. It seems that the horseshoe is like stirrups, and it has not yet been cleared in this era.

Guan Yan immediately changed the roadside and hurriedly chased him: "Let's go to the craftsman's workshop!"

When Guan Yan came to the craftsman workshop, he left only a sketch of the horseshoe. After all, Guan Yan only knew the approximate shape, so he still had to rely on these craftsmen to study it.

Horseshoe is very simple. In just a few days, the craftsmen have already made the prototype horseshoe. Although it is still rough, it is better than nothing and still has a certain effect on protecting the horseshoe.

The equipment and drums are almost done, and as for training the army, it cannot be completed in a short while. Fortunately, the famous Jizhou is harassed by the Black Mountain Army and Wang Fen's remaining parties, and it is actually very peaceful in secret.

Guan Yan was busy training his dragon and tiger cavalry, and almost nothing happened in the other states. The Han Dynasty showed signs of peace, and it really meant that the year name was "Zhongping".

But under this calm sky, the waves inside were surging, especially in Luoyang, the capital of the Han Dynasty, which was even more tense and about to touch!

The house was leaking and raining all night. In March 189 AD, Emperor Ling of Han suddenly became seriously ill and could not afford to get up. On his deathbed, he entrusted his heir to the eunuch whom he had a special trust, Jian Shuo, to the military captain Jian Shuo.

In May, Emperor Ling of Han ended his ridiculous life and died in the Anfu Hall of the Han Palace.

Emperor Ling of Han had two sons, one was Liu Bian and the other was Liu Xie. Liu Bian's mother was a palace maid He from Wan County, Nanyang County, so Liu Bian was born. After the birth of the prince Bian, the He family's mother was named noble because of her son's honor. Queen Song was deposed two years later and promoted to the queen.

Before Liu Bian was born, all the princes of Emperor Ling died, so Prince Bian was not raised in the palace after he was born, but was raised in the home of Taoist Shi Ziguan. He did not dare to call his real name Liu Bian, calling him "Shi Hou". Because Shi Taoist had Taoism, He wanted to protect Prince Bian with his Taoism.

Emperor Ling did not like Liu Bian, but liked the prince Xie, born by the beautiful Wang. When the ministers asked Emperor Ling to establish the crown prince, Emperor Ling believed that Liu Bian was frivolous and did not have the majesty of an emperor, so he was not suitable for being an emperor. He wanted to make Prince Xie the crown prince, but because the queen was favored in the palace, and Empress He's brother He Jin was appointed as the general and had high power in the court, the matter of establishing the crown prince was delayed for a long time.

Although Liu Xie's mother Wang Meiren died, Empress Dowager Dong, the mother of the empress dowager Ling of Han, always supported Liu Xie, and Emperor Ling of Han was also towards Liu Xie, so the two forces were also in a stalemate.

Now that Emperor Ling of Han has passed away, Jian Shuo has been thinking about a long-term plan and wants to kill He Jin first and then make the prince Xie the emperor, so he sent someone to invite He into the harem.

However, as soon as He Jin entered the harem from the outside, Jian Shuo's Sima Pan Yin walked straight towards He Jin and hinted He Jin with his eyes. It turned out that Pan Yin was He Jin's old acquaintance and could not bear He Jin's murder, so he showed it with his eyes. He Jin was shocked and withdrew first, returned to the military camp from the road, and then lied that he was sick and could not enter the palace. Jian Shuo's plan failed as a result.

After returning, He Jin then ordered five thousand men of the feathered army, and led more than 30 ministers including He Yong, Xun You, Zheng Tai and other ministers to enter one after another, and approached the coffin of Emperor Ling, and supported Liu Bian to succeed the throne.

All officials worshipped the new emperor and empress, and He Jin had to settle the score with Jian Shuo.

He Jin said fiercely to Yuan Shao beside him: "Benchu, take fifty strong men and hunt Jian Shuo!"

He Jin responded and hurriedly took fifty people to collect Jian Shuo.

When He Jin asked someone to capture Jian Shuo, Jian Shuo was also running away in panic. He knew that He Jin would come to capture him. Now he could only go back to Xiyuan and use the troops from the First Army to fight with He Jin.

However, He Jin's five thousand feathered army had already surrounded the palace. Jian Shuo carefully groped, looking for the omissions in the encirclement and waiting for an opportunity to move.

The Imperial Garden is very large and there are clusters of trees as a cover. Whether it is hiding or escaping, this place is perfect.

Jian Shuo bent down and slowly moved forward. Suddenly, a team of feathered soldiers ran past. Jian Shuo hurriedly leaned down and hid under the shadow of the flower.

Seeing the Yu Lingjun running away soon, Jian Shuo breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Jian?"

A soft call from behind was indeed shocked Jian Shuo like a huge rock hammering his heart.

Jian Shuo stared at him and turned around suddenly, only to see a person looking at him with a smile on his face.

"So it's Mr. Guo, I'm scaring our family to death!"

Jian Shuo wiped the sweat beads on his head and sat on the ground with a little exhausted look.

This person is officially one of the ten regular attendants Guo Sheng.

Guo Sheng took two steps forward, squatted beside Jian Shuo and said, "Why is Jian Gong so in a hurry?"

Jian Shuo sighed: "He Suigao forged an edict to make Liu Bian the emperor, and now he sent someone to capture and kill our family. He is really a traitor!"

Jian Shuo clenched his fist and smashed the ground. Suddenly, he turned to look at Guo Sheng with anticipation and said, "Mr. Guo, you and I have served Your Majesty together for many years, and we should be loyal. But your Majesty's body is not cold, so He Jin will pronounce the imperial edict! Mr. Guo, can you please let me protect me from the palace? If our family leaves the palace, we can lead a military school to suppress He Jin's rebels! By then, all the Dukes will be meritorious officials!"

Jian Shuo said spitting, but Guo Sheng always had a harmless smile on his face and murmured: "Yes, yes, what Jian Gong said is very much!"

Suddenly, Guo Sheng's expression changed, and he pointed behind Jian Shuo and said in panic: "Be careful, Mr. Jian, why is the butcher coming!"

"Ah! Butcher He is..." Jian Shuo said halfway and turned around and stared at Guo Sheng in pain, pointing at Guo Sheng with his right hand tremblingly and said, "Guo Sheng, you...you..."

Guo Sheng sneered and pulled out a blood-stained dagger from Jian Shuo's waist: "Mr. Jian, go downstairs and continue serving the late emperor. Our family will not be with you!"

After struggling for a few times, Jian Shuo fell into a pool of blood under the shade of flowers with his eyes open and stopped moving.
Chapter completed!
