Seeing Li Meng's breathing calm, Master Ning and Rosie on the side were relieved, although Li Erlang was strong and brave, but he usually gave people the feeling of calm and self-control, this kind of anger is really rare, and I don't know the reason for the anger, our Ming Emperor has been arrested by the Western Warriors, if you know, you don't want to vomit blood.

Li Meng calmed down, he patted his forehead, thinking that he was indeed too anxious, this kind of general trend in the world, what is the use of being anxious, Li Meng raised his head and said to Rosie on the side:

"I went to Fengmeng Town to find Guo Dong and told him, what I want is urgent, as soon as possible, I can't wait here for a few years!"

When Rosie heard this, he was really amnesty, and hurriedly turned around and ran out of the door after giving a salute, the atmosphere in this hall was too strange, it made people confused, Ning Qiangui looked at Rosie, and was very envious in his heart, at this time, Li Meng calmed down, sat on the chair again, and looked at the newspaper.

The so-called news of the Dongyu Jurchen is to enter the Xuanfu of Datong, the entire county of Lingqiu County, from the magistrate to the civil and military officials at all levels, are dying in battle, and the whole family of the magistrate is martyred, this matter is also an understatement, it seems that after the Dongyu Jurchen withdrew, it is not too much to take it to heart.

On the contrary, it was the Shaanxi thief army in the Carriage Gorge that escaped from the encirclement of the official army, and there was really a lot of pen and ink, and Li Meng's poor historical knowledge finally came into use: "The thieves and the army took advantage of the chaos to get out of the Carriage Gorge, and more than 40,000 people from the thieves Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai, Li Zicheng and other troops fled."

At least there are many names in this paragraph, and Li Meng still knows them.

Compared with Li Meng's anxiety, the rhythm of other people's lives was as always, and the content of the next newspapers began to become calm again, which only said that the imperial court did not compete with the people for profit, canceled many commercial taxes and monopoly taxes, and at the same time raised taxes on a large scale, and increased taxes and silver in the name of border troubles and internal thieves. It is spread on the farmers, and the ministers in the court are exchanged like a marquee, but the auxiliary temperature and body are sitting firmly in the phase, which is an outlier.

With Li Meng's historical knowledge and limited understanding in this era. I can also see that this method of raising taxes is really absurd, listening to the people around me, the Jiangnan area is extremely prosperous, but the taxes there are constantly decreasing, natural disasters are continuous, and the farmers are sad. But there is still an additional tax.

I don't want to think about what these so-called thieves in Shaanxi and the world are all about, for thousands of years, the Chinese peasants are the most forbearant and kind class, it's not that they can't survive, and there is definitely no one to do that murderous plot and rebellion.

After Li Meng was anxious for a few days, he finally returned to normal, life has to go on, the general trend of the world, you have no right to speak as a smuggler of salt, even though you are a big salt dealer.

In modern times. Qingdao area in August by the sea is still improvised, if in the nearby suburbs, it is also stuffy, air conditioning has always been a hot product.

But in this era, Laizhou Mansion in August can really be said to be breezy and pleasant, and Li Meng is the kind of person who is afraid of heat and likes cold. Originally, I was still worried about how to spend this summer without air conditioning, who thought that hundreds of years would be intervaled. The difference in climate is so great.

Although Li Meng was comfortable, some of the older Liao people around him were not happy, and when asked them the reason, some of them replied:

"According to the rules of the Apocalypse, it will be cold this summer. The next year there was no rain. The harvesters depend on this rain! ”

It doesn't seem like a good thing, although I feel comfortable. But every year there is a drought and little rain, and the imperial court increases taxes, and the people are really miserable, but look at the thousands of people in their own private salt system, as well as the population of these thousands of people, they are all living comfortably in this year. In troubled times, there is this peaceful land, Li Meng always feels a little proud.

People feel that the weather is comfortable does not mean to be leisure, Li Meng's daily life is to ride horses back and forth between Jiaozhou City and Fengmeng Town, not that things are so busy that he wants to run back and forth, but to exercise his riding skills, Li Meng must have no talent for horseback riding, so he can only practice hard.

Now the two sides of the thighs are finally no longer bloody, and there is a lot of wear resistance, and you can gallop on a horse, which is still very good, and it is different from riding a motorcycle and driving.

In the vicinity of the Li family manor in Fengmeng Town, there is a fairly good flat ground, which was bought by Li Meng and circled up, as a place to practice riding, and now Li Meng has nearly 300 horses in his hands, and there are about 100 horses in Jiaozhou and Fengmeng Town.

More than 2,000 people were recruited before and after, and there were only a few dozen people who could ride horses, most of whom were children of military families who had family life and personal soldier training in the guard station.

The dozens of young people who brought their own horses and were good at riding were recruited by lowering the standards this time, no matter how you look at it, they don't look like good people.

According to the words of Zhao Neng and Chen Liuzi, these people must want to be good Xiangma bandits, and if they are strongmen, they may not be able to get the income earned by the salt dings, and the income is irregular when they are hungry and full, which is comparable to being under Li Meng's hands, and they are not only majestic but also glorious outside.

These messy people come in, Li Meng will naturally not be a big mess, everyone has a special person to watch, after these dozens of days, these people are also honest training, and there is no chaos. However, young people always have some conflicts together, these salties on horseback think that they have been rampant outside for many years, who would have thought of doing something with salt, whether it is a heads-up or a group fight, they didn't take advantage of it at all, this is honest.

Forty newly recruited people, thirty old Yanding, counting Li Meng, a total of seventy-one people, as long as Li Meng was in Fengmeng Town, everyone trained riding and riding together.

It is not easy to invite the head of the sect, it is said that he also fought the battle of the White Lotus Sect back then, and now he is the leader of the personal soldiers around the commander of the Lingshan Guard, Li Meng invited him at a price of fifty taels a month, of course, the commander of the Lingshan Guard made another generous gift over there.

Anyway, it's a peaceful year, and being idle is also idle, the commander and this officer are all smiling at the extra quick money, the leader of this pro-soldier is surnamed Zhang Minglin, who is about to be fifty years old, his face is full of red light, and he can't see any white beard, and he is very powerful. In particular, the scar on the left cheek is even more impressive.

This ** riding skills are extremely good, in the past, Li Meng only saw some movements when he was performing in the circus, ** were easily made.

"You're spreading your legs and clamping the horse's belly. Is it adulterous with a horse, heel force, heel force! If I were to be by your side, I would have kicked you off my horse! ”

"Honestly, with your spear under your arm, do you think it's a trick!"

"Come closer, stay closer. You guys are not girls, and it's ruining your reputation to be next to them! ”

Every time I train, this ** rides a bad horse and follows everyone, watching everyone practice there, on the one hand, they are scolding, the salt Ding can ride horses at best, although those newcomers can ride horses, but there are also a lot of sloppy places, ** after coming to the big temper. Correct here every day.

At the beginning, when Ma Gang's father Ma Baihu went to invite people, ** also said to Li Meng with a big grin:

"I can't see that you kid has some vision, I know that the training horse team is looking for experts like us, and your two strokes are also the work of foot combat, and if you don't use Grandpa Qi's means, horse combat is not good."

These words choked Li Meng enough, but he saw it as soon as he came to training. This old soldier is really capable, and he is definitely an expert in training soldiers. The military households of the Ming Dynasty are not all farmers who farm, and there are still some soldiers and officers who are proficient in battle formations, but these people are too old and have a small number, and the hereditary system and military fields of the military households. It's easy to breed inertia. Even the Ming court knew that the guards could not be relied on. The soldiers used relied only on border soldiers and recruitment.

These generals in the guard station know how to fight and know how to fight. It doesn't play a big role in battle, but it can be used as a teaching and spark for inheritance.

No one in the conscription wants to pay attention to these veterans, the guards are all farming and collecting grain, no one is willing to think about the war ground, only Qianhu and the commander have the possibility of going into battle, this is the group of people who are kept around, but this may also be very small.

Li Meng's invitation this time is really to make the best use of everything.

For Li Meng, the depictions of ancient cavalry in modern film and television media are all nonsense, which is really misleading, especially when Zhang Jiaotou was training, first of all, the cavalry also had a queue, and they must be very close to each other to form a formation, otherwise the cavalry would be left alone, and there would be no advantage at all in the face of the foot soldiers with long weapons. In addition, the degree of the horse's running should be well controlled, the horsepower is very limited, if you let go of the gallop at the beginning, I am afraid that it will be out of force if you don't rush to the front, so you must control the horse to ensure the degree of the final explosion.

There is also the use of weapons on horses, when the horses are moving, looking at the movies and television in the past, the horse knights are there wielding the big sword and spear in their hands, which is extremely majestic, before the ** comes, these new and old horseback salts, including Li Meng himself, are chopping and assassinating on the horse.

As a result, these actions were strictly forbidden, and the reason for convincing everyone was very simple, a dead pig was placed on a one-man highland stake, the pig's head was exposed to the top of the stake, and two salters who claimed to be skilled in equestrianism were found, and they were asked to cut off the pig's head with a knife and pierce the pig's head with a spear during the horse's high movement.

There are no stakes behind the pig's head, and there is no need to worry about being hit by the stake and back.

The result made Li Meng stunned, the man who was about to ride a horse and raised his knife to slash, but the knife was struck, but the man screamed in pain, rolled off the horse, and the situation of piercing with a spear was not much better, the spear pierced the pig's head, but the person also rolled off the horse in embarrassment.

These two Yanding both dislocated arms, but it is not a major injury, and it will be cured if you find a Lang Zhong, but if this is on the battlefield, the cavalry falls to the ground and the weapons burst out, it is a dead word.

Li Meng clearly remembered the words that ** walked up to the two salt ladies and scolded at that time:

"You two bastards, the style on the horse is estimated to be the ability to rob the road and cut the people, your ** horse momentum is so sufficient, what do you want your kid to do, your power plus horsepower, dislocated arm is a good thing, if it is on the battle formation, even if the other party takes a wooden card, your kid's arm will be broken!"

Only then did Li Meng know that when the horse was moving forward and running, the knight only needed to control the direction of the weapon, and the momentum of the horse was enough to make the weapon have the power to kill, which was unheard of skills and knowledge before.

Since this time, Li Meng is naturally obedient, and there is only one argument between the two sides, that is, training every day or training every three days, ** is obviously familiar with the army of the Ming Dynasty, and Li Meng argued, and said eloquently:

"Grandpa Qi's army is just a school every five days, and all battalions and departments are leading the military training in front of the school, that is already a strong army in the world, what are you doing with the salt team that investigates smuggled salt, you practice so hard!"

Li Meng really didn't know how to answer this sentence, and in the end he just said:

"Fifty taels of silver a month, it's not to train you, Zhang Jiaotou, you can practice it."

Originally, I watched the generals of my side riding majestically on horses, and when they charged into battle, they were at the forefront of the array, waving weapons everywhere with weapons in their hands, and no one was invincible everywhere they went.

However, according to **, if you are a general and have to follow the soldiers below to rush into battle, you are already in a desperate situation and ready to fight to the death. But Li Meng can be said to know nothing about fighting immediately, and if he wants to follow the training, he will naturally not get along with his own gold master, so it is up to him.

At first, there was some freshness, but after two days, it was no longer interesting at all, nothing more than the riders were divided into several rows, and there should be several distances between the horse's bodies between each row, and the knights in the same row tried to keep the horses as close as possible, so that the horses were in harmony, and the spears in their hands should be aligned as much as possible.

Hold the spear in the right hand, the tip of the spear hangs down, the spear shaft is clamped with the arm, when it is time to stab the target, adjust the angle, and be ready to let go at any time, the arm and wrist do not do the forward or backward stabbing action, and even the strength of the spear shaft held should also pay attention to the size.

Of course, Li Meng also knew that this model was extremely effective, after all, his salt Ding was also a queue, and the training of physical fitness and assassination was not much more interesting than this.

To say that this ** is really a qualified leader, when Li Meng was on the horse with those cavalrymen, this old man never paid attention to any feelings and the like, and scolded loudly, Li Meng could only listen honestly, no matter how embarrassing and boring he was reprimanded, Li Meng still insisted on practicing hard.

For the martial artists of this era, horseback riding should be a necessary skill, as long as it is a necessary skill, Li Meng must master it......
