Chapter 105: The Way of Equestrianism

Qin Xiao threw the horse basket at Team He's feet and asked him to fulfill his promise, which made everyone in the horse yard look at each other.

Team He thought Qin Xiao was joking, and said, "Master Riding School, this ..... This is horse feed, for horses, man..... How can a man eat? ”

"No, when Team He promised yesterday, it was categorical, but there was no hesitation." Qin Xiao pointed to the people around him: "Everyone seems to be present at the time, I don't know if you heard it?" ”

If it had been yesterday, these people in the horse yard would have rolled their eyes, and no one would have admitted that Team He had said this.

But in one day, Qin Xiao is not what it used to be.

One is a riding school master who rides with a fire word, and the other is a handyman in a horse yard who doesn't even have a formal establishment.

No matter how stupid these people are, they know how to choose.

"I hear you." Geng Hong was still kneeling on the ground, but he was the first to say: "He Teamzheng, you did say yesterday that everyone has ears, manly husbands, dare to act, don't deny it." ”

Qin Xiao glanced at Geng Hong, secretly thinking that you are not a manly man, but this time he said the truth, and said lightly: "What are you still kneeling for, get up." ”

Geng Hong thought that he had testified for Qin Xiao, and suddenly felt a little confident in his heart, got up, and said to Qin Xiao: "Lord Xie." ”

When Geng Hong said this, the others did not hesitate anymore, and said one after another: "Yes, we have all heard it, and the team has promised that if the riding school adults lift the Zhenhu Stone, they will eat a basket of horse material." ”

Team He was about to cry without tears.

Although the horse feed has been cut, the forage that is really to be fed to the war horses still needs to be reprocessed, and even coarse salt will be added to it.

Right now, the basket is straw and hay.

"My lord, I .....!" Team He was looking at Qin Xiao with a pleading look.

Qin Xiao knew that this kind of person was pitiful when he lost power, but once he gained power, he was more arrogant than anyone else, a typical villain who watched people cook.

For this kind of villain, Qin Xiao despised it very much in his bones.

The person he admired in his heart was an upright and righteous man like Mencius, a villain like He Teamzheng, and he never minded letting them suffer more.

"He Teamzheng, do you want to go back on your word in front of your brothers?" Geng Hong stared at Team He and asked.

He is willing to sacrifice his eyes and beg Qin Xiao to protect his brother, naturally he will not mind helping Qin Xiao and He Team are in a dilemma, born in the market, and have been with local ruffians for a long time, Geng Hong's temperament is buried deep in his bones, and whoever is strong will be close to whom, this has become his habitual thinking.

Qin Xiao was young, but his eyes were sharp, staring at He Teamzheng, like a blade.

Team He knew that it would be difficult to survive today, so he reached into the basket and grabbed a handful of horse foil, the expression on his face was extremely ugly, and as soon as he put it in his mouth, he spit it out, and said uncomfortably: "Riding school, villain..... The villain is really hard to swallow, and he has to ..... Chop some ..... too! ”

"You didn't say you wanted to chop it yesterday." Geng Hong is unforgiving.

At this time, I heard Guo Wang say: "Riding school..... I..... I'm asking you for a favor, and this time it's ..... Just Rao He team is back, he ..... yesterday Yesterday it was casually spoken, and it was not malicious, and it was ..... And this hay is really hard to choke, please be ......! ”

Team He was stunned and looked at Guo Wang, a little surprised.

Among the dozen or so people in the horse feed field, Guo Wang is the one that Team He looks down on the most on weekdays, because Guo Wang has a weak temperament and almost does not resist when others are bullied, so the horse feed field only treats Guo Wang as a fun, and even calls him "Wang Wang" and humiliates him.

Guo Wang, who knew that he didn't like to see him the most on weekdays, instead of embarrassing himself with this group, he helped himself intercede.

Qin Xiao saw that Guo Wang's face was red, obviously because he had the courage to plead with him.

"Since Brother Guo said forget it, then forget it." Qin Xiao smiled, stared at He Teamzheng and said: "He Teamzheng, your biggest mistake is not to see the wind and steer the rudder, nor to bully the soft and fear the hard, but to have bad eyes." You look at the weaknesses of others, but you don't see the strengths of others. Although Brother Guo is generous and doesn't care about you in everything, it's not that he can't beat you, but he has the responsibility on his shoulders to support his mother, so he doesn't want to lose his work in the horse yard, so he endures it everywhere. He is pure-hearted, not only will he not fall into the well, but when you are in trouble, he will help each other with righteousness, how much you have bullied him before, don't you blush? ”

Team He turned to Guo Wang, bowed deeply, and said, "Brother Guo, I don't know what to do, you have a lot of adults, don't be like me." ”

"Don't." Guo Wang waved his hand again and again: "Team up, this can't be done." ”

Qin Xiao raised his hand and patted Guo Wang's arm, although he was only sixteen or seventeen years old, he looked very old.

At this time, he had already seen Geng Shao in a short coat standing not far away, and Qin Xiao said, "You guys should be busy first." From the past, Geng Shao also greeted him and said, "Riding school!" ”

"Yesterday I said yes, take the time to teach me riding and shooting." Qin Xiao smiled: "Do you have time now?" ”

"The little one has just arrived at the horse yard, and there is still work in the afternoon, this ......!" Geng Shao was a little embarrassed.

I have heard Team He say righteously: "It's okay, it's okay, Geng..... Brother Geng, the riding school asked you to go, you can leave at any time. I can do the work for you here. ”

Geng Shao was a little hesitant, but Qin Xiao had already smiled and said, "Then thank you Team He." He said to Geng Shao: "Hurry up, hurry up." ”

Geng Shao could only follow Qin Xiao out of the horse yard, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Have you practiced equestrianism in the morning?" ”

"In the morning, they were all practicing archery, and after a few attempts, they didn't even learn how to hold a bow." Qin Xiao said: "In the afternoon, I was training to ride a horse, so I came to you, you used to be a riding school, you should know better than me." ”

Geng Shao said: "Did the adult choose a good horse?" ”

Geng Shao was defeated by Qin Xiao last night, and in his heart, he was indeed unwilling, not that he did not recognize Qin Xiao's ability, but he couldn't figure out why he was defeated within one move, so he thought about it for a long time.

But Qin Xiao lifted the Zhenhu Stone and made a splash, and Geng Shao was very impressed by it.

After all, that stone has been placed under the banner of the battalion for more than ten years, and no one has been able to lift it three times, Qin Xiao is not only the only one who has done it, but also moved it thirty times in full view of everyone, if it is not seen with his own eyes, it is difficult for people to believe it.

So Geng Shao knew that the young man in front of him was indeed very capable.

If his position was replaced by an incompetent person, he would naturally be unacceptable, but being taken away by Qin Xiao would not be pleasant, but it was not unacceptable.

"Horses?" Qin Xiao only thought at this time that the soldiers of the White Tiger Battalion were all equipped with war horses, and he didn't seem to be equipped with a war horse.

"With all due respect, the adults didn't even choose a war horse, how to train?" Geng Shao said: "Although skills are important in equestrian training, they are not the most important. It doesn't take too long to master equestrian skills, and people with understanding will probably be able to master the essentials of equestrianism in less than half a month. ”

"You're saying the most important thing is to choose a good horse?"

Geng Shao asked rhetorically: "What do you think is a good horse?" ”

Qin Xiao was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I heard that among the countries in the Western Regions to the west of the Wutuo Kingdom, there is a small country called Dawan, it is said that Dawan's war horse is unparalleled in the world, is that a good horse?" ”

Geng Shao said with a smile: "Dawan sweats and blood horses are famous all over the world, but in my opinion, it can't be said to be a good horse that is unparalleled in the world." He raised his hand and said, "My lord should choose a horse first, let's go to the stable first, and talk as we go." ”

"That's very good."

The two went to the stable, and Geng Shao said: "Actually, a good horse is the most suitable horse." For example, in the Gobi region, our Xiling horses are not bad, not weaker than the horses of the Tusun people, if it is in the sandy area, the war horses of the Wutuo people can be called unparalleled, if it is in the grassland, everyone knows that the war horses of the Tusun people in Mobei are second to none. ”

Qin Xiao thought to himself that the connoisseur would know if there was one as soon as he made a move, and as soon as Geng Shao said these few words, it could prove that this guy did have some ability, and he was very clear about the advantages and disadvantages of various horse breeds.

"But for our cavalry, whether the war horse is suitable or not depends on whether you can look at it or not." Geng Shao said solemnly: "This is just like a person, if you look at the right eye and are like-minded, then in times of crisis, you will naturally be able to share hardships." But if the Tao is different and does not conspire with each other, not only can you not become friends, but you will even fight to the death. People are the same as horses, war horses have spirituality, if it and the owner look at the right eye, get along day and night, have emotions, in times of crisis, people do not abandon horses, horses will not give up people, especially on the battlefield, more people and horses are one, life and death together. ”

Qin Xiao was solemn and said, "Geng...... You're right, that's the truth. ”

"So I just said that to practice horseback riding, equestrianism is not the most important, but to have a suitable war horse is the most important." Geng Shao said: "For example, if the riding school chooses a horse today, that horse can also accept adults, from now on, the riding school has patience and more care for it, it knows human nature, and will recognize adults as the master." Practicing equestrianism is not only about cavalry, but also about the tacit understanding between man and horse. Raising his hand and pointing in the direction of the horse farm: "Adults can carefully observe when they train, the cavalry with good equestrian skills may not be the most exquisite horsemanship, but it must be the most tacit cooperation with his own war horse, as long as people and war horses cooperate with each other, even if the skills are poor, they can completely make up for it." ”

Qin Xiao nodded again and again: "Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years." Equestrianism does not refer to the technique of riding a horse, but to the tacit understanding between man and horse, which is a wise saying. Thinking that he could climb to the position of the riding school, Geng Shao was really unusual, and he really didn't choose the wrong person this time.

The cavalry has four horses, and the stables of the four horses are also separated.

The stable can be said to be the largest place in the whole camp, according to the rules of the White Tiger Battalion, the soldiers have a fixed meal time every day, and the meal time of the war horses is also fixed, often before the soldiers eat, go to the stable first, and feed their own war horses.

The handymen in charge of the stables of the horses have their own handymen to transport the horse stock, and the soldiers receive the horse materials, they will go to the stall of their horses to feed, which is the military regulations set by the White Tiger Battalion from the beginning of the camp, in fact, it is to enhance the feelings of the cavalry and the horses.

There were eight hundred soldiers, but the stables had a thousand horses.

The extra horses were used as a backup, and they were kept in a spare horse farm behind the stables.

The Huozi riding school came to choose horses, and the Cao team of the stable was personally leading to the spare horse farm, pointing to the horses in the circle and smiling: "My lord, these are all ownerless horses, you can choose at will, which one you like, and say to the small one, and the small one will go in and bring it out for you." He pointed to a few lonely war horses and said, "But those horses, adults try not to choose, they are all irritable, and even their companions don't want to be with them." ”
