I’m The King Chapter 134: : sharpen the sword
War horses of different colors galloped slowly in front of Gao Yuan, and every soldier who passed by Gao Yuan would slash the sword raised high in his hand once in the air to salute their leader.
The horses gradually accelerated, and a hundred cavalry joined each other end to end, running faster and faster. The distance between each horse was less than one meter. Such a distance and such a horse speed were extremely dangerous, because Any accident of any war horse will bring sudden danger to the followers behind, and once it fails to dodge, it will cause a domino-like reaction.
Under Gao Yuan's tense expression, a hundred war horses formed a circle, spinning counterclockwise continuously.
"Beautiful!" Gao Yuan couldn't help applauding. In the eyes of the Xiongnu and Donghu people, this is nothing, but in the Central Plains, it is very unusual for a cavalry team to make such a tactical move.
"What is this, just look at it, there are more!" He Lanyan smiled with her lips pursed.
Not far away, the infantry protruded with a horse, the horse held high, and made a false chop several times. From the gap where the infantry drove out, two cavalrymen on the left and right came out side by side. Formed two columns, galloping on the grassland, the horses were like the wind, the blades were as bright as snow, and a wave of swords was drawn on the grassland.
After several conflicts, the infantry once again took the lead and came straight in the direction of Gao Yuan. Behind him, two columns straightened up. With the infantry's saber raised high, it was like a thick tree trunk. Countless branches sprouted, and small groups of cavalry separated from the main trunk, forming small semicircles one after another.
"Excellent!" Although Gao Yuan is not very familiar with cavalry combat, he only needs to watch the infantry and their formation changes to know that this is a very powerful routine in cavalry combat.
"Of course, this is the most important breakthrough of concentrated forces in cavalry combat. Once a breakthrough is formed, it will immediately be interspersed with encirclement and division. After cutting the enemy apart, they will be divided and wiped out." He Lanyan laughed, "This is our Xiongnu The most commonly used tactic by cavalry, it has been tried and tested."
"In less than a month, you can train them so well. It seems that I, the coach, really hired the right one." Gao Yuan sighed.
"Of course you are right, but Gao Yuan, don't be too complacent. They are just a shelf now. If they really want to use them on the battlefield as they like, they are still too far away. If they have not experienced a few actual battles and encountered some sudden difficulties to test their adaptability, they are far from being called a strong cavalry." He Lanyan said.
"It's already pretty good." Gao Yuan said with a smile, "there are powerful Donghu cavalry on the opposite side of us. Do you still expect them to be the main force in the battle? I don't want me to work hard to develop a A cavalry, I wiped them out in one battle, they are seeds, they are sparks, and I point them to start a prairie fire for me, take your time, I am not in a hurry.”
He Lanyan glanced at Gao Yuan, "Your ambition is not small, but Gao Yuan, don't underestimate them, your cavalry is the most disciplined I have ever seen, compared to our Huns The cavalry is much stronger. Some time ago, when you were away, they were often in danger during training. They collided with each other, or fell off their horses, but the people behind ignored the danger in front and still rode straight on. For this reason, I I also reprimanded them, but do you know how they answered me?"
"How?"
"They said, you taught them that when the command to charge is sounded, even if there are mountains of flames and knives in front of you, you must face the difficulties without the slightest hesitation without hesitation, so even if your companions fall You can’t stop, because once you stop, more people will fall down.” He Lanyan shook her head and said: “This kind of thinking makes the training dangerous, but it also forces every soldier to continue training. Because of this method, people will be killed at any time during the training. Among us Hun cavalry, this kind of situation will not happen. Once something happens, the people behind will immediately avoid it. Although the dangerous situation is chaotic, it avoids unnecessary injuries. After seeing your subordinates, I realized that there is really a difference between the two."
Gao Yuan nodded slightly, looking at the cavalry team in the distance on the grassland, he felt extremely relieved in his heart. The discipline concept that he had instilled in them all the time since he joined the army finally began to reap the fruits.
The same is true for cavalry and infantry. They are the backbone of a powerful army. With them, the hope of building a strong army can be realized.
"Their riding skills and horse fighting have basically passed the test, and the next step is the problem of proficiency. In the next stage, I am going to train them in the art of galloping and shooting. You have more than a hundred cavalry, and only the infantry is better." Proficiency, Jita people are basically aimless when shooting on horseback, this is more difficult and may take more time." He Lanyan said.
"Okay, the most important thing we need is time, isn't it?" Gao Yuan smiled and said, "Take your time, don't worry, you can't become fat if you eat in one bite. I would rather slow down and let them practice better. You have to be strong in forging iron, and if you practice your skills well, your chances of survival will increase exponentially on the battlefield in the future."
"Ten years of sharpening a sword, Gao Yuan, how long are you going to spend sharpening your sword?" He Lanyan asked.
"If it takes ten years, I won't worry, we are still young, right?" Gao Yuan said with a smile.
"But my brother always said, time is not waiting for me!" He Lanyan said.
"Haste makes waste!" Gao Yuan shook his head and said, "Stop when you should stop, practice your internal skills diligently, and make a blockbuster when you should move."
"You are right. We are still very weak. Whether it is the Donghu people or the majority of the Huns, if they really target us, we really can't handle it. Gao Yuan, you are too. According to your In other words, now is the time we need to sting, right?"
"You're right, it's time to lie down for a while." Gao Yuan turned his head and looked in the direction of Juliguan, "If you don't make a sound, it will be a blockbuster. When the world looks at us with admiration, we are no longer what we are now." Such a weak seedling can be broken by them at any time, but it has already grown a thick tree trunk. Anyone who wants to cut us off must be prepared to break their knives. "
"I will tell my brother what you said, sometimes I think he is too anxious." He Lanyan said thoughtfully.
While speaking, the infantry had completed their drills, and groups of cavalry rushed over from a distance, forming a neat cavalry phalanx ten meters in front of Gao Yuan.
"Lord County Lieutenant, the Fufeng cavalry team has completed the drill, please give me some pointers." The infantryman dismounted from his horse, strode up to Gao Yuan, clenched his fist with his left hand, and slammed his right chest leather hard, saying loudly.
"Okay, not bad!" Gao Yuan laughed and took a step forward, punched the infantry hard, and raised his head, "Brothers, it is said that soldiers will be separated for three days. You should look at them with admiration. Not only do you impress me, you It made my eyeballs almost fall out."
With a bang, more than a hundred cavalrymen roared with laughter, with incomparable pride in their laughter.
"In order to reward the hard work of the brothers, tonight, I will add meals, kill sheep, and kill cattle. In addition, today I make an exception and allow everyone to drink, one catty each, so that everyone can have a good time." Gao Yuan waved Put your hands together and say loudly.
"Thank you, Mr. County Captain!" The soldiers were pleasantly surprised. In the army, there is nothing to say about the food now. In addition, according to Gao Yuan's mandatory regulations, everyone must drink a bowl of fresh milk or goat's milk every day. From being unaccustomed at the beginning to becoming accustomed to it now, these soldiers have begun to experience the benefits. Everyone's body is healthy. Growing stronger, with sufficient nutrition guarantee, the amount of training is getting bigger and bigger, but the physical response is getting smaller and smaller. The protruding and angular muscles on everyone's body~IndoMTL.com~ are the best rewards Gao Yuan has worked hard from the beginning.
However, alcohol is still banned in the army. There is alcohol in the camp, but you can't drink it at all, you can only watch it drooling. One catty per person is enough for everyone to have a good time.
"Let's go, let's go home!" Turning on the horse, he stretched out his hand to pull He Lanyan up, Gao Yuan waved his hand and shouted loudly.
It was night, and the lights were turned off in Curie. On the campus grounds, dozens of bonfires were lit, with racks on top, and slaughtered and stripped sheep hung on top of them, roasting sizzlingly. , the aroma was overflowing, the soldiers spread felt blankets on the ground, and in front of them, there were sea bowls one by one, in which were pieces of burnt beef and mutton, still dripping with oil, and the altars of The fine wine opened the lid, and there were thunderous cheers in the field.
This is the first time they celebrated on such a large scale. Firstly, they held a late celebration banquet. The celebration banquet was postponed, and secondly, it was also to celebrate Gao Yuan's appointment as Fufeng County Captain. As their direct leader, Gao Yuan's promotion also meant that everyone here would rise with the tide. The atmosphere in the field is one round higher than one round.
As the leader here, Gao Yuan is naturally the main object of congratulations and toasts. Gao Yuan drinks a lot and will not refuse anyone who comes. The other person to be toasted is He Lanyan, and the toasts to her are mainly from the infantry and cavalry Team. She was not so lucky, before the banquet was halfway through, the bold He Lanyan was already in a trance, and fell headfirst on Gao Yuan's body, but she was still unwilling to go back, so she just used the ground as a seat, and the earth and the sky as a beggar , with Gao Yuan's thigh as a pillow, just fell asleep in the starry sky.
