Chapter 50: Ogasawara Ryu Bow Horse

When it comes to female generals, Li Xiao has to think of watching TVB when he was a child, and the female general of Yangmen, who has played hundreds of episodes and has been prosperous for a long time, Mu Guiying is in charge.

Well, most of these people's stories are apocryphal.

However, Li Xiao knew that the Ming Dynasty in the same era produced two famous female generals, one was Mrs. Washi, who led 6,000 Guangxi wolf soldiers to fight against the Japanese invaders. The other is the famous Qin Liangyu, whose white bar soldiers turned to the world, resisted the Qing soldiers in the north, and the rebellion in the southwest.

As for mentioning the female generals in the history of this book, the first thing that comes to mind is the Ba Gomae who is ranked alongside the Four Heavenly Kings under Kiso Yoshinaka. Of course, there are also people who think of Uesugi JJ.,Think like this about children's shoes.,You can spare me.。

When it comes to the magnificent, hero-ridden Yuanping era, I have to say that the beauties who complement the heroes, the most famous beauties at that time, in addition to the concubine Jing Yuqian of the source Yijing, there is also a skilled bow and horse, and the beauty of the unparalleled Ba Yuqian.

Kiso Yoshinaka's fate is strikingly similar to Xiang Yu's, both of them are victorious and defeated. In the battle of Kiso Yoshinaka's wall, that is, the battle of Ujigawa, Kiso Yoshinaka was deeply encircled, and his original tens of thousands of elite soldiers were left with only Ba Gozen and Imai Kanehei.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Ba Yuzen said to Kiso Yoshinaka, "Let's go back to Kiso together." ”

Kiso Yoshinaka was ready to die in battle, but looking at Ba Yuzen, who was covered in blood, he couldn't bear to let her die here, so he scolded her and let her leave.

Ba Yuzen said to Kiso Yoshinaka with tears in his eyes: "Then let me fight for you again!" ”

After saying that, Ba Yuqian defeated the oncoming Musashi Shishige, and after cutting off the opponent's head, he rode his horse to break through. Since then, no one has ever known the whereabouts of Ba Yuqian.

Later, it was said that after she broke through the siege, she heard that Kiso Yoshinaka died, and resolutely returned and died on the battlefield, and there is also a story that she became a nun and guarded Kiso Yoshinaka's mausoleum for life.

Now since Yumi Kohata said that he served Li Xiao and became his samurai, he also needs to come up with the corresponding level, you must know that Li Xiao's other two samurai, Shima Katsu Takeshi and Shioka Kazuha, their bravery and swordsmanship can be called a temporary choice at that time.

If Yumi Kohata wants to be the same Li Xiao warrior as them, even if Li Xiaoken and Shima Katsu Meng, Shioka Kazuha may feel that he has lowered his value.

After burying Yumi's parents and younger brother, Li Xiao also sent someone to a nearby temple to invite the monk's grave to come and do a ritual, which can be regarded as soothing the pain in the hearts of the three sisters and brothers.

After taking the three of his sisters and brothers to the camp of Takeda Katsuyori's family, they rested for the night. The next day, Yumi Kohata came to Li Xiao's tent and said that he wanted to show his archery skills, and if he could ask Li Xiao to accept his archery skills as a samurai, Li Xiao also agreed.

Takeda Katsuyori had already heard that the Baoshina brothers, who had reported the news, said that after Li Xiao received a pair of beautiful sister flowers, he was immediately very interested, especially when he heard that the sister could also bow and horse archery, and after showing it, he was also interested for a while, pulled up Yamamoto Kansuke, and took Sanada Masayuki and them to the outside of the barracks to see how each other behaved.

Yumi Kohata changed into women's clothes that day, pulled up her waist-length hair, and changed into a refreshing samurai dress, looking like a beautiful boy from a distance. At that time, the aesthetic point of view was to like beauty, and both men and women liked it regardless of their surname.

At that moment, a samurai under Takeda Katsuyori who had a serious two-way fetish asked Li Xiao to ask Yumi Kohata, but of course he was rejected.

Archery first originated in China, when the nobles of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period had to learn the six arts of etiquette, music, archery, royalty, art and calligraphy, among which archery was archery. At that time, the aristocratic class, which was still full of pioneering and enterprising spirit, if a boy was born in the family, according to the custom, the father should pick up a bow and arrow and shoot an arrow in each direction, which represented the meaning of the boy's ambition in all directions.

Later, the definition of salute archery was introduced into the book, and at that time, Zen Taoism was prevalent, and archery was a quiet sport, with no opponents, and it was purely a contest between oneself and oneself, so it was often used by samurai to sharpen their hearts.

Yumi Kohata shoots with a bow, first 50 steps to the target, all three arrows, then 80 steps to the target, and then all three arrows, at this time everyone present has put away the mentality of underestimating women, to look at Kohata Yumi's archery.

In the end, Yumi Kohata changed to a 100-step target, shot three arrows in a row, and hit the bull's-eye again. The samurai present burst into exclamations.

In the Kamakura period, there were so-called "three things to ride and shoot", which were "flowing horses", "kasa hanging", and "dog chasing things". This not only compares the accuracy of the archer's marksmanship, but also tests his marksmanship's etiquette.

In fact, the modern Ogasawara stream has declined, and it has been reduced to a kind of salute archery, and has gradually lost the effect of emphasizing strength and accuracy in actual combat, but at that time, the Ogasawara Ryu bow and horse archery technique can be called the first in this book.

When Yumi Kohata, who is a descendant of the Ogasawara clan archery school, rode a healthy horse and quickly moved along a straight line, she steadily shot the arrows in the quiver into the target thirty paces away in one breath, one arrow after another, and hit them all.

At this time, Liandao Katsumeng and Shigang Kazuyu were both dumbfounded, and they had never seen such archery before.

Shima Katsu walked up to Li Xiao and said, "My lord, I look at Yumi Kohata's archery skills, I'm afraid that even if he puts it in the entire Takeda family, he can be ranked in the top ten." ”

Li Xiao was also very surprised when he heard Shima Katsutoshi say this, at that time, the two famous archers of the Ogasawara family and the Takeda family, although the bow horses of the Kai Takeda family had begun to decline, but they were prevalent in the Anyu Takeda clan and the Wakasa Takeda clan.

However, how to say that Kai Shinano also has people who are good at riding and archery in the country, tens of thousands of Takeda soldiers, and Shima Katsu Takeshi actually said that Yumi Kohata's archery can be ranked in the top ten, isn't it too exaggerated.

"That's an exaggeration, she's just a woman." As soon as Li Xiao finished speaking, Yumi Kohata immediately staged a more exaggerated scene for Li Xiao.

I saw Yumi Kohata reach out into the quiver and grab three arrow feathers at the same time, the nearly two-meter-long riding bow in her left hand grabbed horizontally, and the right hand put three arrow feathers on the bow, one bow and three arrows!

No, with the bow of this era and the arm strength of Yumi Kohata, she can really do it with just a woman. Even so, such archery is only legendary.

Hallucinations, hallucinations, must be hallucinations, Li Xiao said this secretly in his heart, but the soldiers of the Takeda family present collectively erupted in exclamation.

Yumi Kohata crouched on the horse's back, pulled the bow sideways, and the whole bow was full in one breath, only to see the bowstring crash to the ground, and three arrow feathers came out of the string.

At this moment, the eyes of everyone in the audience were straight, Takeda Katsuyori had no image of a lord, and opened his mouth wide, and Kansuke Yamamoto, who had always been calm and calm, also showed an incredible look on his face, not to mention the other young samurai.

The three arrow feathers hit the arrow target three meters apart at the same time, the arrow was fixed on the arrow target, and the arrow feather at the tail was still shaking non-stop, and the fact told Li Xiao that the scene in front of him was by no means his illusion.

Just when everyone looked at Yumi Kohata with a kind of worship, she drove the war horse back to Li Xiao, jumped off the war horse lightly, and stood in front of Li Xiao, with a firm and somewhat pleading look in her eyes, and said to Li Xiaoyan: "Please accept Yumi, my lord." ”

Li Xiao glanced at Yumi Kohata, the fingers of his right hand that were bleeding from the bowstring cut, nodded and said, "Okay, from now on, you are my Li Xiao's third subordinate." ”
