Chapter 8: Hard Training

In August, it is already the Mid-Autumn Festival. Walking out of the underground river city and out of the Li family's compound, Zhao Ji suddenly felt a chill.

The bright moon hung high, and Zhao Ji looked up at the moon, as if he missed the afterlife a little.

The road ahead is unknown, don't know how far you can go?

In the Song Dynasty, there was no Mid-Autumn Festival, and looking at Zhao Ji, who was a little sentimental, Sima Guang and Wang Anshi didn't know why.

The other merchants went to sleep, but only the dismissed scholars still insisted on their duties as courtiers, and they must send Zhao Ji to the barracks.

"Holy." Luo Hao raised his right arm.

Zhao Ji also raised his right arm, and the doctor didn't know why.

"Two gentlemen, it's unkind. That's how I arranged a marriage. When I come, rest all of you. Zhao Ji turned around and said.

"Isn't this an example set by God? The merchant woman, the rough is a little rough, the big thing is important, and the saint has taken care of it. Sima Guang said with a glare, as if he was very dissatisfied.

"Hehehe, why should Junshi be petty." Wang Anshi said with a smile.

"Dare to ask sir, what does this mean?" Zhao Ji was puzzled.

"Hahaha. The saint didn't tell him, so he dismissed Junshi and others, and Junshi was sulky? Wang Anshi explained.

"Shengshang, treat Sima Guang and Ouyang Xiu, but is it unkind? Today, not only for himself, but also for Ouyang Xiu to ask for an explanation from the saint. Sima Guang Zhenzhen has words.

Thinking that Bao Zheng could spray saliva on Emperor Renzong's face, Emperor Renzong could only smile. Zhao Ji could only be depressed for a while, and the ancient emperors were not so inviolable.

"Ouyang Xiu's matter, I have done too much. When he is free on the day, I will go and worship in person. I can't make amends to Mr. Zhao Ji bowed and said.

"The Holy One doesn't have to blame himself too much. Ouyang Xiu's matter, the saint also has difficulties, otherwise, it is not enough to put a brake on the official's prostitution for fun. Wang Anshi excused Zhao Ji on the side.

It seems that Wang Anshi is not so stubborn, and he can persuade Sima Guang to stand here, which shows his great wisdom.

"The minister is Ouyang Xiu, thank the saint. For the sake of memorabilia, it is time for the Holy One to be wronged now. Sima Guang bowed.

"Hehehe." The three of them looked at each other and smiled.

・・・・・・・・・

The days flew by.

Sima Guang took a group of people to open the school, Wang Anshi took a group of people to build a money village, and Zhao Ji settled down here to train cavalry.

Zhao Ji persuaded Wang Anshi, and Wang Anshi persuaded Sima Guang. But can this path really work? Zhao Ji's heart was full of worry.

In order to avoid cranky thinking, Zhao Ji could only train himself with all his might, training the 10,000 golden fire cavalry.

The 30,000 war horses were all provided by Li Zhanma, and in addition to the war horses he raised, he also obtained a lot of war horses from Northern Liao through border trade smuggling.

The Li Family Horse Farm stands among the mountains, in addition to the rows of neatly built houses and stables, and nearly a thousand tents have been erected, which can be said to be a bit overcrowded.

The main reason is that the underground river city has never been open to the outside world, otherwise, no matter how many more people there are, it will not be a problem.

The living facilities of the Li family horse farm are basically complete, in addition to the grain hoarded by Li Zhanma, the golden fire cavalry also built a granary. In fact, the rations and salaries were provided by the merchants.

For entering the Great Song Dynasty and then letting businessmen take charge of the Great Song Dynasty, this is an opportunity that cannot be seen in a thousand years, how can those businessmen spare no effort?

There is no need to worry about drinking water, because there is no way to dig a well, dozens of reservoirs have been built on the top of the mountain, and there are mountain springs for drinking.

The whole Li Family Horse Farm looks like a large Roman Colosseum, with a small grassland within a radius of ten miles in the middle. Most of the grass is fenced, indicating that the grass cannot be trampled.

The Li Family Horse Farm is not a grazing breed of war horses, but like raising pigs, the horses are locked in the stable, and the grass is harvested for feeding.

Stagger the time every day and let the war horse gallop in this small ten-mile land.

This way of raising horses is very expensive compared to nomadic herdsmen, although the Great Song Dynasty is large, only here can real war horses be cultivated, and it is indeed not easy for the Li family father and son to operate like this.

Li Zhanma was proficient in riding, so Zhao Ji asked him to give him a big guide. After a long time, Zhao Ji found that this fat businessman, although he was a little timid, was a civil and military all-rounder.

In the Li Family Racecourse, whether it is Zhao Ji or his soldiers, the daily training schedule is full.

In the morning, instead of practicing equestrianism, Zhao Ji and 10,000 soldiers ran two laps around the meadow within a radius of ten miles.

Although he is training cavalry, his own physical strength cannot be left behind. As for the logistics of the Golden Fire Cavalry, it was handed over to the Li family.

After breakfast, the day's training really begins. In the morning, they practice individual martial arts such as sprinting, shooting, returning fire, and slashing, while in the afternoon, they practice tactical training for the whole army, such as collective charge, dividing the enemy's forces, and cooperating with operations.

After dinner, it is a free time to go to listen to lectures, learn literacy, continue self-training, or ask the family members for equestrian advice.

But he can't gamble or drink, and Zhao Ji has a strict control over these two. Found out, whoever it is, immediately beheaded. There is no room for negotiation.

There are a few businessmen's children, who may have been accustomed to drinking and gambling in ordinary times, and who violated military discipline, were all beheaded by Zhao Ji, and their bloody heads were still hung in the camp, which was taken as a warning.

In order to improve the enthusiasm of training, Zhao Ji has formulated a reward system. In addition to promotions, military merit is also rewarded. A little military merit, an acre of land, consistent money. It will be paid at the time of retirement.

Although it is very rich, it cannot be cashed out immediately. I don't know if it has any effect.

Unlike ordinary soldiers, Zhao Ji's training was mostly one-on-one specialized training.

Li Peiling taught horsemanship, Guo Kai taught the use of lance, Niu Zai taught the use of knives, Gao Fei taught archery, and Li Zhanma taught cavalry tactics.

Although Zhao Ji was born as a special forces in later generations, the firearms of later generations are now useless, and cold weapons have to be learned.

arranged for Li Peiling to teach riding, also to win over Li Zhanma. Li Zhanma's second son, Li Peiyang, was also promoted to the team.

Li Peiling seems to be very dissatisfied with Zhao Ji and often plays tricks on Zhao Ji. And Zhao Ji often tells some pornographic jokes, teasing Li Peiling, and fighting back.

However, this girl didn't blush at all, and after laughing, she shouted in an old-fashioned way: "Faint gentleman, wait for this lesson to teach you." ”

After shouting, he pulled out his sword and stabbed at Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji drew out the short-bladed Qinglong knife, and fled on horseback while fighting Li Peiling with the knife.

When the soldiers saw it, they didn't come to escort them, but just sighed: "It's really hard for the officials." ”

Ma Zhan, Zhao Ji is not Li Peiling's opponent. He was often knocked off his horse, with a blue nose and swollen face. But Zhao Ji was even more happy, the youngest daughter was so powerful, and Li Zhanma's strength was really immeasurable.

Li Peiling, who won the victory, was extremely happy when she saw Zhao Ji's embarrassed appearance: "See if you are good tomorrow?" ”

Despite this, Li Peiling's teaching is still very competent.

"The highest level of riding is the unity of man and horse, and you must be able to solve all problems on a horse. Standing on horseback, hiding on the horse's belly, are the most basic. If you can solve all the problems of eating, drinking, and sleeping right away, then you can be regarded as a small success. To achieve great success, it is to communicate with the war horse, so that the war horse understands your every action and every look. Then you are the war horse, and the war horse is you. In this way, the war horse is not as simple as a mount, but a part of your body, and when you attack, the power of the war horse can also be released with your body. Your attack power will be magnified by several times, dozens of times, or even a hundredfold. Once you've done that, you're truly a knight. Today's teaching is how to communicate with war horses, and this first step is to ask you to cherish war horses as much as you cherish your own body. Li Peiling explained to Zhao Ji.

"I can eat and drink this on the horse, but this Lazar? I just don't understand, why don't you teach Li to demonstrate it again? Zhao Ji teased.

"You faint man, watch me teach you a lesson." The daily repetition began.

The law of learning the knife is very simple, there are eight moves in total, sweeping, splitting, pulling, cutting, sweeping, nai, chopping, and sudden.

The combination of these eight moves is how to exert force and how to combine. Strength, speed and precision.

For this reason, Zhao Ji can only practice against wooden stakes every day.

Sweep, to make the stake broken but not scattered, still erected. Splitting, to make the stake broken but not opened, is still in a closed state.

The most rare thing is to cut the stump, like a cut vegetable, to cut the thinnest, and then each piece to be the same thin.

It's really depressing to the extreme. The soldiers did not have so many rules, but just practiced mechanically every day.

Therefore, every day Zhao Ji had to practice repeatedly against a pile of firewood, and the task of chopping firewood for cooking rice in Lijia Racecourse was pressed on Zhao Ji's body.

The embarrassing thing is that the women of the Li Family Racecourse have to praise Zhao Ji when they come to carry firewood.

"This is the firewood chopped by the officials! You see how good the split is! I said how the rice has become more and more fragrant recently, no, it turns out that the firewood of the official family is getting better and better. It is worthy of the official's chopping firewood! ”

Zhao Ji's easy-going and cordial attitude has shortened the distance between Zhao Ji and Li's racecourse.

The Golden Fire Cavalry led by Zhao Xu, because of strict military discipline and Zhao Xu's constant emphasis that we are the people's soldiers, we are fighting for the people's land, and we must not do anything that harms the interests of the people.

For this reason, the women of the Li family racecourse all regarded these soldiers as brothers and nephews.

There was even a woman who said that she was planning for the soldiers of the Golden Fire Cavalry, and even said that the plot had reached Zhao Ji's head, which made Zhao Ji smile bitterly.

However, it is very difficult to practice, and it requires not only strength, but also skill. The skill is too strong, the soldiers just gave up, and it is impossible to spend too long practicing this. As the emperor, Zhao Ji can't give up, but fortunately, there are two people's potential, and Zhao Ji doesn't find it difficult to learn.

Archery and throwing knives are also compulsory, there are no special skills in this, the moves are very simple, just keep practicing, again and again, until you hit the target. From the beginning of the static target practice, to the later moving target practice.

At night, he followed Li Zhanma to learn cavalry tactics and command, and what made Zhao Ji happy was not that he learned the tactics of cavalry, but that he had discovered a group of talents.

After all, the training methods of the Mongolian cavalry in later generations were copied by Zhao Ji. Zhao Ji has a foundation, and it is not so difficult to learn. And gathering talents is the biggest task of an emperor and the key to success.
