Along the way, the guy saw a lot of good scenery along the way, the ecological environment of the late Han Dynasty was very beautiful, because it did not suffer from large-scale man-made destruction and serious pollution of modern industry, everything is still original!

Under the blue autumn sky, there are continuous green mountains and green trees, as well as a variety of unknown wildflowers mixed in the jungle, they are all trying to bloom like clouds of brilliant colors, like a large group of beauties competing in front of the guys, and rushing to show off, more beautiful and beautiful!

In the green mountains, green water and blue sky, the young man greedily breathed the air rich in sufficient oxygen ions, his expression was extremely intoxicated, and he felt relaxed and comfortable, which is a rare enjoyment that is not available in modern society!

The young man sometimes felt that it was not very comfortable to see on the carriage, and there were not many pedestrians on the road left and right, so he simply stopped the carriage and let the two martial artists ride a horse together, while the young man rode the other horse alone and continued to walk slowly.

At first, the guy was not very good at horseback riding, and he could only see it often on TV and movies before, and he always felt that the man riding the horse was very handsome, and his heart was very itchy, and he never had this opportunity!

Now that you have the opportunity to ride a horse for free for no money, you have to try it anyway!

After asking the two martial artists the basics of horseback riding, the young man began to sit on the horse's back, grasp the reins, and began to walk slowly forward.

Fortunately, the horse that the guy rode was still relatively docile, but when he first rode it, it was still a little crooked, and then he gradually got used to it.

And Cuihua saw that the guy was very amusement riding a horse, and she also pouted and said that she had to ride a horse, but in the end there was really no way, so she had to let her ride for a while.

The young man was worried that she would fall on her heels, so he asked the two martial artists to take turns leading the horse to walk in front, and the other one was tired and went to rest in the carriage.

That's it, after a while, this girl has gone crazy enough, and she looks so tired from playing that she doesn't even have the strength to say more!

The young man was very distressed when he saw her like this, so he asked her to go to the carriage to rest first, and repeatedly promised that when he returned to Zhang's house in the future, he would accompany him to practice horse riding, and finally coaxed her into the carriage.

After another hour like this, the guy also felt a little tired, especially the muscles on both sides of the thighs were grinding painfully, and he always felt that the fire was burning, it seemed that he had to hurry up and practice in the future.

I can't learn to ride a horse, otherwise how to become a horse general in the future, how to march and fight, I just can't fight, and if I run away from the general, I have to learn to ride a horse, because two legs can't run four legs at all!

Not only do you have to learn it yourself, but Rong'er and Cuihua also have to learn it.

As for Master Zhang and Mrs., the young man can't exert influence yet, and he doesn't have the guts, this is his future father-in-law and mother-in-law, at most let them sit in the carriage and protect themselves.

Somehow, when the guy has nothing to do, his mind is always full of thoughts about how to escape, and besides, he hasn't reached this point yet.

In addition, there are many ways to escape, and sometimes you don't necessarily have to flee in a hurry, maybe you can transfer in advance, or you are strong enough to destroy all the enemies who come to attack, and you don't have to run away at all!

In any case, you must first learn to ride a horse, and you must be proficient in riding, in case you have to fight in the future, especially against famous generals, you are still far behind, and you need at least a long weapon that is suitable for use and sturdy.

To be honest, it's still free to play against famous generals, like the three-legged cat kung fu of the guy, if you don't pay attention, your life will be gone.

The biggest idea at the moment is to be able to block at least a few times before finding a chance to get out.

In order to be able to ride the horse quickly without swaying from side to side, the young man rested for a while, and suddenly thought that he found a piece of coarse cloth and two rattan sticks to make a simple stirrup, and tied a dead knot at each end, draped it on the horse, and continued to get on the horse and slowly hurry!

The boy sat on the horse, with his feet on the knot, which seemed to be much more comfortable, and after a long time he could run a little faster, and not be thrown off by the horse.

Now Cuihua is so hot that he has to ride a horse with the guy, otherwise he will make a lot of trouble!

Later, I couldn't stand her little temper, so I had to let her sit in front of the guy and ride together in my arms, which stopped for a while.

While riding a horse, the guy looked at Cuihua's pink and delicate little face, and that look of intoxication and enjoyment, which made people laugh a little, and even wanted to have the urge to kiss it!

After a while, Cuihua still whispered in her small mouth: "It would be great if the slave family rode with Brother Menglong every day in the future." ”

It doesn't matter if you don't say this, as soon as you say it, it makes the guy feel like a horse, and he doesn't dare to move, and he is a little uncomfortable all over, and finally almost rides the horse into the ditch on the side of the road, but fortunately, he grabbed the reins of the horse in time.

At this time, the horse was also very tired, and the young man was even more tired, and his face was sweating profusely!

This can't be blamed on the guy, it hasn't been long since he learned to ride a horse, and he is going to take people, the key is that this person is still very dishonest, always teasing the guy!

In the end, I had to come down and rest for a while, and at this time Cuihua was about to fall asleep, so the young man lovingly carried her into the carriage and let her sleep well first!

In this way, the young man rode the horse a few times, and gradually he got used to it, and he no longer needed this simple stirrup.

So he took it down and dismantled it, this is the prototype of the stirrup, a secret weapon that can be used to form cavalry in the future, so that even those who are not skilled at riding can have their hands free and wield the weapon on horseback.

According to reliable historical records, the Han Dynasty did not have stirrups, and the cavalry of the Three Kingdoms only relied on their feet to clamp the horse's belly.

The earliest stirrup was found in the area of Xianbei people in northeast China from the middle of the 3rd century to the beginning of the 4th century, and the excavation site was in Beipiao City, which is connected with Chifeng in Inner Mongolia in the west of Liaoning Province.

In 1965, archaeologists unearthed a pair of stirrups with long straight handles and copper skin in the tomb of Feng Sufu, a nobleman of Beiyan in Beipiao County (now Beipiao City).

This pair of stirrups is 24.5 cm long and 16.8 cm wide, which is the earliest stirrup in the existing era in the world, and it can be said that the stirrups of the Central Plains came from Xianbei (the Northern Wei Dynasty was founded by the Xianbei people).

There is also an interesting allusion about the lack of stirrups in the Three Kingdoms, in the years when Liu Bei was attached to Liu Biao, there was basically no war.

Once I had dinner with Liu Biao, I went to the toilet during the banquet. Seeing that a large piece of fat had grown on his thighs, he actually cried: "I am a person who leads soldiers to fight, and there can only be muscles on my thighs, not fat." ”

In Liu Bei's view, the past few years have been wasted, nothing has been accomplished, and even his body has been wasted!

So the question is, why does horseback riding build muscles? We often ride electric cars and we don't get anything out of it.

The reason is that riding a horse is to use the thighs, especially without stirrups, it is difficult to master the balance, and it needs to be clamped tightly.

Anyone who has practiced fitness should know that to train the inner thigh muscles, it is necessary to clamp, clamp the equipment, and clamp the yoga ball, which is possible, and there are not many other ways.

As for the stirrups used by the actors in the TV series to ride horses, that is also the director's helpless move.

Without stirrups, you can't shoot a horseback battle scene at all, and it takes many years of training for a professional rider to be able to do it!

During the Three Kingdoms period, there were no stirrups, and the saddle was still there, which was much better than a smooth horseback.

With the help of the reins, as long as you are good at riding, your thighs are strong, and you are clamped tightly enough, and your weapons can be used and received freely, you can fight immediately.

In fact, in this case, the role of fierce generals and elite soldiers is even more obvious.

A man who can't ride a horse, no matter how well equipped he is, he can't become a cavalryman.

And it is much more difficult to train a qualified cavalryman than in later generations.

It can be said that a qualified cavalryman must be able to fight hand-to-hand combat on horseback, and there were no stirrups in the Three Kingdoms era, and hand-to-hand combat required super leg muscles, which required long-term training on horseback.

If he can do hand-to-hand combat right away and be able to handle it with ease, this rider is an elite one, so to speak, all separatist forces are in short supply of such excellent cavalry!

A soldier who is good at fighting on horseback can achieve a much greater advantage on the battlefield, and the probability of killing the enemy to save his life is also very high.

There was once such a phenomenon, I don't know if you have noticed, that is, whether it is in the Three Kingdoms, or the earlier Qin, Han, Spring and Autumn Warring States, why did so many fierce generals emerge with thousands of enemies?

It was because at that time, it was generally difficult to fight on horseback, and if you could do it without stirrups, then the gap between you and the opposing soldiers would be overwhelming!

Before the invention of stirrups, there were naturally great restrictions on the weapons used to fight on horses.

What Qinglong Glaive Knife, Meteor Hammer is not available, and some are also fictionalized in novels, and the long weapons used by everyone are generally guns.

One is that piercing attacks are difficult to parry, and more importantly, on horseback, it is difficult to exert the power of slashing weapons.

And when you ride on a horse to hit someone, you have to pay attention to saving stamina, if you don't spare strength, just slash and stab and kill, if you can't hit someone or anything, no matter how good your riding skills are, you will inevitably lose your balance and fall to the ground!

And if you are knocked down from the horse, there is a chance that you will not be able to survive, because people wielding weapons on the horse will soon be able to come to you, and you will not be able to react at all, unless you are a very strong martial artist, you can escape this catastrophe!

In addition to spears, one-handed swords can also be used, which requires you to hold the reins in one hand, lower your body on your horse, and slash infantry on the side.

With the help of the dashing power of the war horse, even if it is only a one-handed weapon, it can also produce great lethality!

In the early period of the Three Kingdoms, the reason why there was often a fierce general rushing into the enemy camp and taking the head of the enemy general was like a bag and taking something, in addition to the heroes and heroes in the troubled times, the uneven combat ability of this soldier was also the main reason.

A warrior skilled in horsemanship, skilled in the use of weapons, tall and strong, coupled with sound armor and tall horses, if you encounter a group of poorly equipped and untrained peasants, you are indeed unworthy of courage.

In the later period, Wei, Shu and Wu all had well-trained elites, and this situation rarely appeared again.

In addition, the excellent heavy cavalry are all the fusion of strength and speed into inertial killing and wounding of the enemy, their position in the army is equivalent to the tank in modern warfare, those half-tone cavalry can only look at the ocean and sigh, raise bows and guerrillas or even simply dismount to fight.

Suffice it to say that in the era before the invention of the stirrup, knights rode in the saddle of horses, carrying both bows and arrows, spears, swords and shields, and the training of knights in that era was much stricter than that of cavalry in the Middle Ages, so the requirements for selection would be higher.

Even the armies of ancient nations, such as the Persians, Assyrians, Egyptians, Romans, Babylonians, and Greeks, did not know what stirrups were, let alone use them; Even when Alexander the Great led his army across all of Central Asia, his knights' legs were stretched across the saddle, and their feet had nothing to support, and the hardships of his knights can be imagined.

It can be said that with the weapon of stirrups, it is completely possible for hundreds of horsemen to chase tens of thousands of infantry, and when you want to hit me, I will run away, and when you are tired, I will chase you and cut again, just like mosquitoes and flies, it is annoying!

For this reason, the Han people in the Central Plains have repeatedly carried a big heel in front of the grassland peoples, and I don't know how many heads they have sent back and forth in history!

Therefore, if you want to dominate in troubled times, you must have a hard iron horse.

With stirrups, you can train some cavalry in the future, and with the formation of modern cavalry, you can completely compete with the elite cavalry on the grassland, and even crush the cavalry on the grassland very easily!

So don't underestimate such an inconspicuous thing, it seems to have no effect now, but in the future, it may be able to decide the outcome of the war at a critical moment.

It can be said that this stirrup is a life-saving thing, and it can even change the direction of history, but you can't just let others learn it!
