First of all, Yang Mu took out the improved saddle and the brand-new stirrups and showed them to these generals.

Then, arrange a few people who are good at equestrianism, bring a full set of equipment, and after a little training, fight against a group of ordinary soldiers.

A single charge panicked the inexperienced infantry phalanx, and the formation was in disarray.

At this scene, the direct generals were dumbfounded, and after testing it in person, they were completely convinced.

Yang Mu was not surprised by the reaction of these generals.

Is the mobility of cavalry comparable to that of infantry and chariot units?

Of course not!

The military branch that has flourished for thousands of years in the history of human beings on the earth can be said to be the nemesis of light infantry, and 10,000 cavalry against tens of thousands of light infantry are absolutely crushed.

Even after the advent of thermal weapons, the border guards in northern China still had large-scale cavalry, but at that time, cavalry was already a continuation of infantry, and its role was to patrol on foot, rather than to charge and kill on the battlefield.

The core of the cavalry is the war horse, and the price of a war horse is no less than that of a small car in later generations, and if it is a good breed, the price is not lower than the price of a sports car.

In the past few months, in the trade between Cangguo and the major caravans, the proportion of horses is very high, generally the caravans of various countries use horses to transport goods, and after arriving, the horses are sold together, plus the horses captured from Shen and Zheng, the stock of horses in Cangguo has reached tens of thousands, and there is no problem with 10,000 people.

Then, there is the weapons that need to be equipped for horse warfare, and the weapons of horse warfare have undergone a long development in history, but in the end, they are fixed on the scimitar and the bow and crossbow.

The former is a weapon when the cavalry is in close contact, which is most conducive to the cavalry to exert force and slash, and the latter is a long-range weapon, when the cavalry is equipped, it is like a tiger with wings.

Therefore, when it was decided to form the Qilin Army, Yang Mu found a lot of information from the library in his mind, and asked the Ministry of Science and Technology to put down the matter in hand first and give priority to restoring these two weapons.

It is worth mentioning that learning to ride a horse is like learning to drive in later generations, and it can be solved by getting a driver's license for two months, but learning to ride a horse is more difficult, which can be understood as the level of an old driver.

This also caused one thing, although the Qilin Legion was established, it could not be made public in a short period of time, so it could only choose a township in the south of Cangguo, demarcate it as a training ground, and organize these 10,000 soldiers to conduct closed training in it.

"Summons Geng Gui and let him come to see me." Yang Mu said.

"Yes!"

The little eunuch next to him responded, and asked the celebrant to immediately draft an edict and go to the Qilin Army garrison in Taoyuan County to announce the decree.

That's right, Geng Gui is the commander of the Qilin Army and was awarded the title of general.

This person was originally the general of Shen Guo, and Wei Zhongquan was at the same level, and he had very rich experience in commanding troops, and when Zheng Han led the army to attack the city, he did not retreat, and led a group of dead soldiers to rush and kill, and killed a round and forth, blocking the enemy army several times his own from Shencheng.

It can be said that if it weren't for this person's courage and unyieldingness, then Yang Mu's rescue, which Shen Guo couldn't wait, would not have had the later pattern.

As early as when he rushed to the aid of Shencheng, Yang Mu had heard about it and admired it very much, but out of a kind of self-confidence of a traverser, he believed that the general's commanding ability could be cultivated through the day after tomorrow, so he had no special intentions.

However, later, the Shen army attacked the White Tiger Legion, and this person came into his field of vision again.

Because, Sima Hong's guy fell into this ambush called Geng Gui, which can be said to be a beautiful ambush battle.

If it weren't for the news of the defeat of the Zheng army that later reached Shen State, Geng Gui stopped the pursuit, the White Tiger Army would not have been able to wait for the rescue of the Xuanwu Army at all, and all 5,000 people would have to be lost in Shen State, and even the Bandit Mountain Range would have to fall into the hands of Shen State.

Later, this person was captured, and he has always preferred to die unyieldingly, and he did not let go of his mouth under severe torture, and it can be said that he is a rare loyal and righteous person in this era.

It can also be said to be foolish.

Until Shen Guo was attached, this person saw that the monarch and ministers of Shen State were not persecuted, so he did not resist again, and resigned and lived in seclusion after being released.

After Yang Mu proposed to form a cavalry, it was Sima Hong who recommended him for the first time.

This is indeed unexpected, and it also coincides with the candidate in Yang Mu's heart.

After all, in the battle of Shencheng, this person rode a horse to kill a round trip outside the city, and in this era without stirrups, it is rare for horse battles to have such a level.

In the evening of the same day, Geng Gui galloped from the Qilin Army garrison in Taoyuan City and entered the palace to face the saint.

No one knew what was discussed between the monarch and the ministers that night, but someone later remembered that after Geng Gui came out of the palace, he had been excited, and he still had a book in his arms, holding it tightly, treating it as a treasure.

After that, the people in Taoyuan City often heard the neighing of horses from the direction of the racecourse, and sometimes the roar of the mountains and tsunamis was heard in the middle of the night.

After this interview between the monarch and the minister, the Zichen Palace issued several edicts one after another, including calling farmers to plant horse grass and purchasing a batch of fine horses from merchants from various countries.

After a series of events, even the businessmen were stunned.

Of course, it's good to have money to make, but this money is not clear, and everyone is still a little curious.

Cangguo, are you going to build a chariot army?

Not realistic, right......

The terrain of Cangguo is not conducive to the large-scale mobilization of chariots, except for the frontal battle on the battlefield, it is generally difficult to see the traces of chariots, except for the cost, so including Dasheng Kingdom, the chariot troops are very limited.

After many inquiries, I didn't get any news.

No one could get along with the silver, and this matter was gradually forgotten, and a fine war horse was sent to Cangguo through the operation of merchants from various countries.

Even Yang Mu rested comfortably for a while.

During this time, he asked the queen to teach the Su Nu Gong to Ji Ling'er and the thirty-eight concubines in the harem.

At the beginning, the queen was also a little hesitant, the inheritance of the various sects in the martial arts can be said to be the most sensitive thing in a sect, for hundreds of years, the Holy Maiden Peak has never taught the Su Nu Gong to people other than the disciples of this sect.

Yang Mu launched a retaliatory action.

For several nights in a row, he rested in Yuling Palace, running Changchun Gong every time.

The queen was unbearable and begged for mercy, so she had to rely on it, and she taught the skills of the plain girl to those concubines with palpitations.

Of course, there is also a reason why Yang Mu has been recognized by the Holy Maiden Peak and the Su Nu Sect, in a sense, Yang Mu is already the master of Changchun Gong and Su Nu Gong, and he can decide who to pass on the exercises to.
