lnmao.org, the fastest update of the latest chapters of the Ten Kingdoms Qianjiao!
The horseshoes roared on the Huben Military Academy, and a feather was fluttering in the dust, like a reed rippling by the wind. % Guo Shao rode a black horse forward, looking very vigorous, followed by a large group of soldiers on horseback.
A group of hundreds of people are wearing brand-new armor. The armor workshop has newly made armor. It is obvious that feathers can be inserted on the helmet. The newly delivered armors are all equipped with feathers as a celebration. Guo Shao feels much more comfortable to wear than the previous armor. The shoulders and limbs are more convenient to move; the weight is also lighter than before, because instead of two layers of armor, rivets are used to inlay locks on the plate armor. Zijia.
A slaughtered sheep is hung on a wooden frame directly in front, and a breastplate is hung outside. Guo Shao rushed in, and after more than twenty steps, he took a three-foot-long javelin and threw it violently. The javelin was in the middle of the plate armor. The speed of the horse plus the speed of the javelin shot , The javelin weighing three or four catties pierced the armor directly and stuck it on the mutton.
"Ha!" Guo Shao yelled happily, and turned his horse to pass in front of the target. The knights rushing from behind shot guns, most of them missed, but they were not proficient, so they only shot two or three times.
A group of horse soldiers gradually stopped following Guo Shao, and dismounted to rest. Dong Zunzuo and another tall man came up, and the man said: "Guo Du checks the martial arts, and shoots the gun better than anyone else!"
The man who spoke was called Zhang Jiankui, who was very strong and used a big axe to attack the military village on the cliff of Wushan Gorge during the Battle of Shu. He was very brave; Guo Shao was at the bottom of the mountain, so he remembered him.
Guo Shao smiled and slapped the big man on the shoulder and found that this guy was taller than himself, and said: "Don't flatter, you need me, I also need you. The Great Zhou Army needs a powerful general like Command Zhang." /
Everyone laughed. Zhang Jiankui hurriedly said: "In the end, he will be promoted to 500 people from the capital to command, all relying on Guo Du to inspect and cultivate!"
Guo Shaodao: "You don't need to care about it, practice hard, and you will learn within a month. This thing is simple, a hundred times easier than archery. I tried it myself; I didn't know how to shoot before." /
Dong Zunzuo smiled and said: "I was still wondering how my uncle went to the barracks to practice shooting guns. My uncle's archery skills are the best in the three armies, so how can I give up the bow and learn the gun!"
"Haha, archery and throwing guns, I'm useless, do I have to go to battle to kill the enemy myself?" Guo Shao said, "I just want to try, is this thing useful? Shi Yanchao uses the kind of iron Guns are unusable for ordinary people. The remade ones have trembling cork poles, thick head and thin feet, moderate length and weight, and are easier to use."
Guo Shao recalled that Dong Zunzuo said: "The Third Army is a mounted infantry. How did you fight before entering the battlefield on horseback?"
Dong Zunzuo said: "If it is within a hundred people, the horse will approach the enemy for about a hundred paces, and dismount the horse quickly to form a line of battle. But if there are thousands of large formations, you can only abandon horses in advance, The militant formation enters the battlefield on foot; otherwise, it will be too much trouble to deploy a large formation, and you may be attacked by the enemy before it becomes an army."
Guo Shao nodded and said: "That's it. Horseback riding infantry can’t use equestrian skills or shooting. Everyone is infantry. No wonder soldiers can hardly become cavalry in a short time. However, equipping horses increases logistical pressure. The improvement of long-distance strategic maneuver is not great (the horse will lose weight when it is loaded too far, and then be damaged); short-distance tactical maneuver is also very limited. This effect does not count if you eat so much food.
So we must have a certain amount of immediate combat capability, and be able to quickly enter the battlefield immediately when running or pursuing. This kind of javelin can replace riding and shooting at short distances, and is more lethal; the most important thing is that it can be used without taking too long to practice. "
Zhang Jianxiong listened and patted his chest and said: "Although Guo Du is at ease, he will be the second commander to practice frequently, so that everyone can learn to shoot guns in a month."
"Very good." Guo Shaodao, "The former commander of the second command of the Third Army took a toll road to attack the Shu army in Qumen. All the soldiers and the commander and below were killed. This is a brave and loyal team. The army, I hope Commander Zhang will not disappoint me when he succeeds."
Everyone was excited when they heard the commander of the imperial army praise them face to face.
Guo Shao said: "We are horse-riding infantry, and the martial arts are not as good as the cavalry, but the combat power is not necessarily worse. After learning to shoot the gun, you must also practice the lancer charge. With the speed of the horse, you can use the long | Any martial arts, as long as brave determination; third, with a saber side split, as long as one move. Learn these three moves, and sometimes can barely be used as a cavalry, easy to seize the fighter."
Guo Shao got up to the point and wanted to perform a side split. At the moment, under the coaxing of the soldiers, he mounted his horse again, took a saber, and ran towards the straw dummies on the school field, controlling the horses to pass by the scarecrow, Guo Shao leaned over and chopped off the dummies. On the ground.
No need for martial arts, Guo Shao can't fight on his own, but Shengzai's actions just now are neat and beautiful. A shout came from behind: "Okay! Okay..."
Guo Shao rode his horse back and heard a soldier say: "Guo Du checks his martial arts, even if he doesn't become a general in the future, he can live a good life!"
The energetic soldiers suddenly fell into the cold, and Zhang Jianxiong suddenly cursed: "Dog|Japanese|Yao Erniu, don't say anything if you don't speak!"
Guo Shao turned his head and looked, only to see a young burly man standing there with a sad face, not daring to talk back. In my heart, I thought that the guy might have wanted to flatter, and this was just on the horse's leg... Of course he wouldn't care about such trivial matters with him, so he pretended not to hear.
The man named Yao Erniu is right. Even if Guo Shao loses his power, he can still live well in theory. After all, he is young and strong and literate, and he is very competitive under the population quality of this era...problem It is, how can he lose power now that he is in power? Who will replace him? Can you let him go after replacing? Guo Shao felt that when he had reached that point, that person would dig the ground three feet to find himself at all costs, otherwise there would be endless troubles.
But Guo Shao doesn't think he will lose power. Normally, he has analyzed the source of the threat, and he has done two things: one is to prevent the overwhelming majority of the masses from an unbearable uprising to completely overthrow him and the authority of a large group of people who are in power; the other is to beware of powerful internal ambitions. Home, such as Hedong Li Jun and other military-powered Jiedushi.
Now Guo Shao feels that he is in a good state. As long as he doesn't perverse, these two kinds of people won't have a chance.
...So Guo Shao didn't affect his mood at all because of a word from someone else. He immediately smiled and said, "Yao Erniu is right. What is the commander Zhang calling him for? I'm not bragging, I just hit the iron. I haven’t fallen yet, where can’t I just eat?"
When everyone saw him smiling, the atmosphere eased, and the noisy was once again.
Guo Shao couldn't help but not affect his mood. Suddenly he thought that he was just over twenty-three years old, healthy and strong, and already holding power. The future life is really worth looking forward to, and he feels very happy now.
At this moment, Lu Chengyong rode over and said next to Guo Shao: "Master, Gao Yanjian has arrived at the barracks."
Guo Shao patted his forehead and said, "I almost forgot that there is still this thing today. Dong Zunhao, you will arrange for the training of the Third Army's equestrian infantry."
"Uncle, don't worry." Dong Zunjiao said with a fist. He waited for Guo Shao to mount and walk for a while, then rode a horse to catch up, and said, "I|mother told my uncle to sit down more often. She was really happy last birthday."
Guo Shao didn't say a word, and glanced at Dong Zunhao, who was not much different from his own age. Although it was quiet, it was always embarrassing.
Dong Zunzuo said: "My mother has suffered a lot. Now as long as she is happy, I will try my best to be filial."
"If you have time, I will definitely go to Sister Yi to walk more." Guo Shao said, and immediately left the school on horseback.
Guo Shao rode to the barracks lobby, turned over and dismounted, then threw the rein to Lu Chengyong and stepped into the threshold alone. Seeing a tall middle-aged man and a short, rough and black man sitting in a chair talking, they noticed someone coming in, turned their heads, and immediately stood up and bowed to Guo Shao. The taller man is Gao Yanjian, and the shorter one is Hou Mao.
The two people said different things together. Hou Mao said, "Well, see Dashuai Guo." Gao Yanjian said: "The criminal has seen Guo Du check it out."
They all wore linen clothes and wore a scorpion. At this time, it is more popular for men to wear hats, and people with a certain status wear that kind of hair, which is the same for both north and south. But the general dressed up so loudly, it did look a little bit down.
Guo Shao said: "Sit down without the gift."
He also sat down, and the two of them took their seats later. Guo Shao spoke more bluntly and said directly: "I'm looking for you to meet here today. Two things. The first is that the guards at General Gao's residence have asked people to withdraw, and you are free. The second is that more than 100,000 soldiers were sent down from Shu. , The Guardian roughly selected more than 20,000 strong people to form the'Jiannan Army', which was subordinate to the Guardian Ma Busi, who was also the imprisoned soldier of the Zhou army; I would like to ask General Gao, let you serve as the left and right side of the Jiannan Army. Commander, would you like it?"
Gao Yanjian was stunned: "The final general is originally a general of Shu. Guo Du checks me to be the chief general of the Shu army?"
Guo Shao said: "Yes, you have Hou Mao as your lieutenant general. You will decide the position. After the Jiannan Army becomes an army, the Department of Guards will appoint some generals, and the rest will be selected by General Gao and submit the list of generals. "
"Guo Du's check is so trustworthy, he dare not serve his life?" Gao Yanjian responded immediately.
Guo Shao stretched out his hand and said: "Welcome General Gao to join our great Zhou army."
Gao Yanjian glanced at it, and after thinking about it, he stretched out his hand to hold Guo Shao's palm. Guo Shaojiong looked at his face with piercing eyes: "I have pondered the record of General Gao and General Hou. I believe you are wise generals who judge the situation and evaluate the situation."
Gao Yanjian showed a red light on his face: "I am waiting for General Guo's defeated generals to win you such respect and praise."
Guo Shao smiled and said: "The main reason for victory or defeat is that the capital in his hand is different. How can a man with noble martial arts beat him with his bare hands and a man with a strong bow and arrow?"
Gao Yanjian also raised his head for a while.
Guo Shao said with a serious face: "From now on, we are all in order to unify the world, end the war, protect the country and the people, and fight for the people of the world!"
