Chapter 229: Joining the Yue Family's Army

Liu Meng, the hundredth number of townspeople, followed Ling Lingqi and Yue Peng, and went straight to the camp where the anti-Mongolian rebels were located, the Great Song Dynasty did not know much about riding, unless it was a professional cavalry, like Liu Meng, they had only ridden donkeys and oxen, which was different from riding a horse, although it looked like that, but it was okay to bluff the layman, once it met the cavalry of the Mongols, dismounted and foot combat may still have vitality, if you ride a horse, you will be split off the horse.

But along the way, Liu Meng took his fellow villagers and brothers to work hard to exchange and practice riding, Yue Peng and several of his own soldiers will also guide them, in ancient times, it was the era of cavalry, if you don't know how to ride, even if you lose the battle, you can't escape.

Ling Lingqi also learned to ride a horse with Yue Peng, but a master of transformation like him, in fact, it doesn't matter whether he learns it or not, but Ling Lingqi knows that in this era, how can the general order his subordinates if he doesn't get on the horse?

Sleeping in the open all the way, encountering villages and small counties, and saying on the road that our family is an anti-Mongolian rebel army, the villagers will serve out wine and food, and warmly entertain them, as if they were heroes.

Along the way, those faces full of expectations and warm hospitality made Ling Lingqi's heart surge with a stream of heat, this is a lovely, worthy of guarding, this is the era of the most developed Chinese culture, guarding it, protecting it, not letting it be harmed, has become its own responsibility, because only you know what kind of suffering it will endure, 100,000 soldiers and civilians surrendered to the sea to martyrdom, and there is no China after Yashan.

Although the history is distorted, there are many changes, but the Great Song Dynasty fell into the downwind, the Mongols to the north, to the west, all the way to Europe, almost to gather the world's strength to deal with the Great Song Dynasty in turn, if this fight continues, or in a few years the Western Xia and Jin Kingdom will be destroyed one after another, then the Great Song Dynasty, sooner or later, there will be a defeat.

Ling Lingqi, Yue Peng, and Yuya Palace Lord took a group of villagers to rush to Yuntai Mountain in five days, and the camp of the righteous army was mainly due to the bad road conditions in this era, and in order to avoid the Mongolian cavalry, they all took small roads.

The Song army was not favored in peacetime, the criminal Qingpi was confiscated, the quality can be imagined, in order to prevent escape, the face is to be tattooed, it can be seen that being a soldier is not a good choice for aspiring young people, but when the war is chaotic, the Song Dynasty, but there is no shortage of brave men who defend the country and sacrifice their blood, almost every day there are strong men who join the army, strengthening the military strength of the Great Song Dynasty.

But the Great Song Dynasty was short of horses, all war horses, all into the army to do military horses, even officials are using ox carts, ordinary people can ride a donkey, it is good, like some small officials, can only ride a green donkey when they go out, not to mention ordinary people.

Therefore, the people who joined the army, most of them are foot soldiers, few cavalry, like Liu Meng, such a country warrior, after a few days of practice, the riding skills of this hundred people are already quite good, if you do not consider the accuracy, it is no longer a problem to shoot arrows on the horse.

Coincidentally, they encountered a little accident on the way, because of their more than 100 people, there are more than 20 war horses, and they are well-selected horses, the hooves rumble, and they met the scouts of the Great Song Dynasty far away from a county seat.

The scouts are all elite, equivalent to modern scouts, good riding skills, archery skills are equally good, but they are afraid of the strength of the Mongolian cavalry, so several scouts did not dare to step forward, and one scout broke away from the brigade and went to the camp to report the news.

The scout flew and rode away, and from a distance he fired a horse-drawn arrow on his horse, and from a distance of dozens of meters, an arrow hit the flagpole, and the arrow was wrapped in this reconnaissance information.

Twenty horsemen came to attack, and when they landed, the Song army camp near the county town was nervous, and more than 200 horsemen were formed in a moment of roaring, and the Mongolian people were good at riding and shooting, and on the horse, the Song army was at an absolute disadvantage, so there were more people dispatched.

And Ling Lingqi and the others saw a single scout go away, looked at each other and couldn't help but smile bitterly, looking down at their outfits, it was indeed exaggerated, their body was almost equivalent to the future soldiers of the US Army in later generations.

The scout is just watching from a distance, and he is not in front, Yue Peng rode to the scout, and the three scouts left saw that Yue Peng was just coming alone, and there seemed to be no hostility, so they rode up to meet him, the scout was an elite army, and the other party could not beat more than 100 people, but to come one, it was not a matter of splitting the horse with a knife, one-on-one, one-on-two, the elite repulsion was not afraid of this.

The two sides marched, Yue Peng reined in the horse, the horse's hooves were raised, and he landed heavily, Yue Peng bowed his hand, and then reported his name.

The two scouts glanced at each other, nodded to each other, and then arched their hands to Yue Peng, saying that they were tired, and then moved away, one scout ran in the direction of the camp again, and the other person was still watching from afar, but did not leave. After all, Yue Peng is not leading the official army, this kind of army similar to bandits, although it is said that it is also fighting for the Great Song Dynasty now, but it is always a potential threat, and if it is in peacetime, it will definitely be pacified.

Several generals of Yue's army saw that Yue Peng returned to the mountain with more than 100 people, and immediately led hundreds of soldiers down the mountain to greet them, Yue Peng introduced Ling Lingqi and others to several generals to know, and then everyone went to the cottage together, and washed the dust for Ling Lingqi and Liu Meng and others.

Ling Lingqi also learned through the Yuya Palace Lord that there were nearly 1,000 people in this army, and in fact, the descendants of the Yue family army were spontaneously organized, you must know that the Yue family army was the main force to resist the Jin soldiers in the Northern Song Dynasty, and now their descendants will become the anti-Mongolian army.

At night, Ling Lingqi also couldn't sleep over and over, after all, he has joined an army now, and this army is not an officially recognized army, which is equivalent to going to Liangshan, but these soldiers are the descendants of the Yue family army that Ling Lingqi admires the most, so Ling Lingqi also wants to help Yue Peng train this army to be stronger, and then develop and grow, after all, an army of 1,000 people, in front of hundreds of thousands of Mongolian cavalry, is indeed nothing, unless they are all masters of strength!

By the way, why don't you teach these soldiers the national art and kung fu? In the era when Chinese civilization lasted for thousands of years and there were many wars and natural disasters that were almost continuous, a child over the age of five would keep his eyes open and pay attention when he went out, would a group of fast horses come over and accidentally kill himself, and a stray arrow flew out and accidentally shot himself? Or, when he heard the sound of a group of horses running, his first reaction was whether there were bandits coming to catch him? In that era, thousands of years of accumulation, the predecessors practiced national arts, often with many high-achievers, heroes, and chivalry, which had an indispensable relationship with this growth environment of life and death, blood and fire!

Therefore, Ling Lingqi felt that in this era, it must be easy to become a master by practicing national arts, and as far as the Yue family army of 1,000 people is concerned, at least half of them should be able to enter the dark energy within three or five years. (To be continued.) )
