Chapter 460: Is Su Cheng’s Woman Deng Jiaer? (Down)

Turn back time a few minutes ago...

In Su Cheng's office.

After becoming the leader of the Michael Knights, Su Cheng seemed to have awakened the attribute called "workaholic" without even realizing it.

Sitting at the desk for several hours like today without moving was a common occurrence for Su Cheng.

The central government's reply finally arrived two days ago - the central government approved Su Cheng's request to reduce the size of the Michael Knights and keep the Michael Knights at 120,000 people.

Now, the second and third phases of the Michael Knights' recruitment have also been completed. The recruits recruited in the second and third phases of the recruitment have been integrated into the new army of the Michael Knights - the 5th Army.

Now, the 20,000 recruits of the 5th Army have been stationed in the Avalon Fortress and have officially begun training for new recruits in the fortress.

Including the recently formed 5th Army, the Michael Knights now have an army of 100,000. After two more rounds of recruitment, they will be able to reach Su Cheng's expected number of troops - 120,000.

In the past two days, Su Cheng has been busy deploying troops on the northern front.

The Michael Knights have a total of 6 strongholds in the north, including Avalon Fortress and 5 military bases.

For the Knights of Michael, who will only have 120,000 people in the future, they obviously do not need so many strongholds.

Therefore, Su Cheng decided to directly abandon the 3rd, 4th, and 5th bases. Recall all the small number of generals who have been stationed in these three bases, leaving only Avalon Fortress and the 1st and 2nd bases closest to the fortress.

According to Su Cheng's plan, he planned to have the 4th Army permanently stationed at Base No. 1, with the commander of the 4th Army, Dale, in charge of Base 1, and the 3rd Army to be permanently stationed at Base 2, with the commander of the 3rd Army in charge. Rui is in charge of Base 2.

The 1st and 2nd Army, as well as the recently formed 5th Army, and the future 6th Army are stationed in the most important Avalon Fortress.

At this time, Su Cheng was still carefully planning the deployment of troops on the northern front as he had been for the past two days, when there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Sir, it's me, Deng Jiaer."

At the same time, Deng Jiaer's voice also sounded.

"Please come in."

As soon as Su Cheng's permission to enter was granted, Deng Jiaer, wearing a thick cotton coat, opened Su Cheng's door and entered Su Cheng's office.

After entering Su Cheng's office, Deng Jiaer felt waves of heat rushing towards her.

"Sir, your office is so warm."

Deng Jiaer sighed at the warmth of Su Cheng's office and closed the door of Su Cheng's room.

"After all, I have three stoves in my office."

"My forehead started to sweat..." After that,

Deng Jiaer wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"That's because you wear too much." Su Cheng smiled, "Is it very hot? If you can't bear it, just take off your clothes. If you only wear a thin cloth like me, you will feel much more comfortable."

"It's so hot... I'll take them off then. Where should I put the clothes I took off?"

"Put it anywhere you want, even on the ground. My floor here is very clean."

Deng Jiaer obediently listened to Su Cheng's words, took off the bulky cotton clothes on his body, and threw them on the ground.

After taking off all the cotton clothes on his body, leaving only a thin cloth coat, Deng Jiaer immediately felt much more comfortable.

He couldn't help but let out a moan of pleasure.

Deng Jiaer's moan was very loud, and the two people who were standing outside the door and eavesdropping on the movement in the room heard Deng Jiaer's moan very clearly.

Su Cheng and Deng Jiaer did not know that two people were eavesdropping outside the house.

Little did he know that the faces of the two people outside the room became even paler after hearing Deng Jiaer's comfortable moan.

After taking off his heavy cotton-padded clothes, Deng Jiaer began to report to Su Chenghui:

"Sir, there is a reply from the blacksmith shop."

"Oh?" Su Cheng's expression became more serious, "What did the blacksmith say?"

"The blacksmith shop said that the 'horseshoe' you drew, sir, they can indeed create something exactly like the painting you provided, sir, but they don't know how to use it."

After saying that, Deng Jiaer took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Su Cheng.

This piece of paper is a portrait with a "U" shaped object drawn on it.

"You can make it but don't know how to use it..." Su Cheng smiled bitterly, "I know."

Su Cheng took the piece of paper from Deng Jiaer's hand, and then said with a wry smile:

"Thank you for your hard work, Deng Jiaer. Regarding how to reduce the loss of war horses, I'd better think of other ways."

After solving the training, judicial and other issues, there is now a very serious problem facing the Michael Knights and Su Cheng.

That is, the supplies of war horses cannot keep up.

Regarding the problem of war horses, the Northern Territory Administration has nothing to do about it.

Su Cheng now no longer puts his hope in the Northern Territory General Administration, which is now unable to do anything about it, and plans to solve this serious problem personally.

Su Cheng did not want to see the cavalry under his command be forced to reduce its size due to logistical problems, or to fight on donkeys.

Most of the wear and tear on war horses is due to damage to the horses' hooves.

Therefore, Su Cheng plans to create a "horseshoe"!

As long as horseshoes can be successfully made, the hoofs of the war horses can be well protected and the wear and tear of the war horses can be greatly reduced. The problem of not being able to keep up with the supply of war horses will also be solved.

In addition to greatly reducing the loss of war horses, it can also make the horseshoes grip the ground more firmly, which is very powerful for riding and driving, and can enhance the combat effectiveness of the cavalry to a certain extent.

Horseshoes have not yet been invented in this other world.

Su Cheng was not surprised by this. After all, even in his hometown on Earth, it was not until the Yuan Dynasty that it began to be widely used.

Su Cheng's idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

Not long ago, after Su Cheng drew the appearance of a horseshoe, he gave the portrait to Deng Jiaer, intending to let Deng Jiaer take the portrait to the blacksmith shop and ask if the blacksmith shop could make it. Play horseshoes.

And just now, Deng Jiaer also brought back the answer from the blacksmith shop: he can make something exactly like the thing painted in the portrait, but he doesn't know how to use it.

Although Su Cheng was mentally prepared for this answer, after actually hearing this answer, Su Cheng couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

At this time, Su Cheng had never hated himself so much for not learning science and engineering well when he was still on Earth.

Su Cheng was only 14 years old when he left the earth and came to this other world.

At that time, Su Cheng was only in the second year of junior high school. He was a "low-quality talent" who had not even graduated from junior high school and did not even have a junior high school diploma. He was the kind of person who would apply for an assembly line worker job in a factory and others might not want him.

Sometimes, Su Cheng would be glad that he had left the earth. If he had been allowed to stay on the earth, he would not even be able to go to high school.

Because Su Cheng's grades in science and engineering were terrible.

Su Cheng has always been very good at mathematics, but for some reason, although he is so good at mathematics, his grades in physics, chemistry, and biology are extremely poor.

What a bad idea? If he passes one of the three subjects of physics, chemistry, and biology, the teacher will wonder if he cheated.

When he first took over the Knights of Michael, Su Cheng also thought about developing gunpowder so that this other world, which was still in the age of cold weapons, could enter the age of firearms and create the first firearms unit in this other world.

However - Su Cheng only dared to think about it.

He didn't even know how to prepare gunpowder, let alone make a musket.

Let alone gunpowder, Su Cheng didn't even know how to use horseshoes.

Su Cheng only knew what a horseshoe looked like, but he didn't know how to use a horseshoe or how to put it on and take it off.

Therefore, Su Cheng could only draw a rough image and send it to the blacksmith shop, so that the blacksmith shop could figure out how to use this thing.

After hearing such an answer from the blacksmith shop, Su Cheng felt disappointed and also hated himself for not studying well on Earth and how to use horseshoes.

Since the blacksmith shop didn't know how to use horseshoes, the "horseshoe plan" could only be abandoned and they could only think of other ways to solve the problem of war horses.

…

Just as Su Cheng was rubbing his swollen temples, Deng Jiaer suddenly looked at a cup on the table in front of Su Cheng with a puzzled expression.

The cup was filled with a white, thick liquid.

It seemed to be some kind of drink. Although it was a little far away, Deng Jiaer could still smell some faint strange smell.

"Sir, what is this white, thick liquid of yours?"

The military genius brought Zizhi Tongjian to another world
