Yun Xi also hurriedly jumped off the horse, ran to her side, grabbed her hand and asked, "How do you feel?" Are you hurt? ”

Yun Zhi trembled all over, and after a while she said, "Brother, my sister is fine, she is not injured." ”

She was also scared. If you accidentally fall off the horse just now, you will inevitably suffer some skin trauma, and if you hit anywhere, there is a danger of hurting your muscles and bones; That's not all, if you are trampled by the horse's hooves again, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Yun Xi listened to her words, and didn't care about the many men present, so she asked the attendants to check her body. After making sure that his body was fine, Yun Xi, who was terrified, immediately scolded angrily: "You still don't listen to you if you can't ride well, you almost had an accident just now!" If something really happens, how can my brother explain it to your mother! ......" rebuked many words.

Yun Zhi didn't refute, but was supported by two maids and stood in place. Yang Feng saw that Yun Xi said too much, so he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess Huainan was frightened just now, and her body was wooden, so let the subordinates take Her Royal Highness down to the house to sit and rest for a while." And the pastor also has Lang Zhong appointed here, so please ask Lang Zhong to show His Highness a good look. ”

Yun Xi realized that this was not in the palace, and there were many outsiders watching, even if he reprimanded his sister, it was not good, so he listened to Yang Feng's words and took her to the priest's house, called Lang Zhong to check the pulse, and made sure that he was not injured.

Yun Xi immediately sent Lang Zhong out, and after leaving only the two maids who served Yun Zhi in the house, he said to her: "Fourth sister, my brother just scolded you for your own good. Seeing that you almost fell off the horse, my brother didn't know how worried he was, and his heart was about to jump out of his throat. ”

"Brother only has your four sisters, you are the youngest one, watching you grow from a small group to such a big one, although we are called brother and sister, but my brother treats you like a daughter, if something happens to you, my brother will not feel good."

Yun Xi is telling the truth. Yun Zhi is twelve years younger than him, Yun Zhi was only three years old when he first came here, and Yun Xi has watched her grow up little by little, and she is similar to her own adopted daughter. Although he spoils all four younger sisters, Yun Zhi has the best feelings. Although the other people have been with him for eleven years, they are always a little worse because they didn't start at such a young age.

Yun Zhi took out a handkerchief and asked the maid to wipe her face, and smiled at Yun Xi: "Brother's thoughts, my sister also knows, I was anxious just now, so I said that, my brother is the one who cares about my sister the most except for my mother, how can my sister be angry with my brother." ”

"That's fine." Yun Xi sat down beside her and said a few words of comfort, and asked, "Although there are no internal injuries in Langzhong's pulse, and there are no external injuries after the maid has checked it, let's hurry back to the palace and let the imperial doctor take a look again." ”

"Brother, sister doesn't want to go back now." Yun Zhi said: "It's hard to come out once, my sister wants to play a little more, even if she doesn't try, it's good to go around more in this grassland, this grassland that can't be seen at a glance, it's comfortable to look at." ”

"Well, that's it, my brother will allow you to go around the pasture again, but you can't run the horse anymore." Yun Xi said to the two maids again: "You two look at the princess closely, if there is any more bad pool, I will definitely not indulge you!" ”

The two of them were so frightened that they immediately knelt down and agreed, but Yun Zhi asked the two of them to stand up.

Yun Zhi changed her clothes again, shook off the ashes on her body, and Yun Xi went out of the house again, and rode the most honest horse that the shepherd said under the strict protection of the maid, and walked around the pasture again.

Yang Feng and Cao Xing thought that Yun Xi would return to the palace like this, and at least let a few guards escort Yun Zhi back to the palace, but when they saw Yun Zhi actually got on the horse again, and Yun Xi also rode on the horse and galloped in the pasture, the two of them glanced at each other, and hurriedly got on the horse and chased after him.

After a while, Yun Xi came to the place where the horses were raised in this ranch. Although the main function of this ranch is for the royal children to ride horses, it also undertakes a small part of the ranch's own work, raising more than 1,000 horses, and all of them are breeding horses sent from local pastures.

Yun Xi looked at the small group of horses in front of him who were leisurely standing on the grass grazing under the guard of the groom, and said after Yang Feng and Cao Xing came over: "Look at these good horses, they are really tall and majestic, but unfortunately there are too few. If the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty rode such horses, who else could deal with them! ”

Yang Feng and Cao Xing said a few words together, and Yun Xi called the pastoral supervisor to praise him a few words, telling him to take good care of these horses and not make mistakes. The shepherd excitedly agreed.

Yun Xi saw that it was not too early, and asked the pastoral supervisor to retreat and go back: he still wanted to stop by the city to see the people's situation when he went back, so he went back early.

But he suddenly thought of something, and pointed to these good horses and said to Cao Xing: "Cao Xing, you are also a person who is good at using cavalry, I suddenly thought of a way to use cavalry, you listen to it." ”

"How about choosing the best horses and the best cavalry to form an army, with men and horses in armor and forming a phalanx?"

"Your Majesty is talking about heavy cavalry?" Cao Xing said: "Your Majesty, this heavy armored cavalry is indeed more powerful than ordinary cavalry, but the cost of supporting a heavy armored cavalry is much more than that of ordinary cavalry, and even if a good horse carries heavy armor, it can't outrun a lightly armored Mongolian horse, so it is really of little use." ”

It's not that no one in ancient China used heavy armored cavalry, but the biggest difference between China and Europe or the Celestial Region is that the scale of the war has reached the million level during the Warring States Period, and no matter how powerful a heavy armored cavalry is, it will not play much role in a war of this scale; In addition, the battlefield is also far larger than that of the West, and the heavy armored cavalry cannot run too far and is of less use, so it was eliminated in China.

Yun Xi naturally also knew something about this, and said at this time: "I also know what you said, so although the cavalry I want to build is armored, it is not heavy armor, it is only a little better than leather armor." I just want to gather most of the good horses together and create the best cavalry possible. ”

Cao Xing and Yang Feng glanced at each other. They felt that such an elite cavalry that could outrun the ordinary Mongolian cavalry was of little significance, after all, no matter how elite the cavalry was, it could not deal with several times the enemy.

However, this was always more useful than the armored cavalry, and they did not raise any objections. Seeing that none of them objected, Yun Xi called the shepherd and instructed: "From this day on, all the horses here cannot be moved without my permission, even if the prince comes to ask for it, he will not be able to give it!" ”

He also said to Cao Xing: "I have decided to select one of the guards in the upper guard as such a cavalryman. Cao Xing, I will leave this matter to you. ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will definitely train them to become the most elite cavalry in the world."
