Chapter 134: Grinding the Sword

War horses of different colors galloped slowly in front of Gao Yuan, and every soldier who passed by Gao Yuan would slash the sword raised high in his hand once in the air to salute their leader.

The horses gradually accelerated, and a hundred cavalry joined each other end to end, running faster and faster. The distance between each horse was less than one meter. Such a distance and such a horse speed were extremely dangerous, because any horse Any accident on the war horse will bring sudden danger to the followers behind, and once it fails to avoid it, it will cause a domino-like reaction.

In Gao Yuan's tense expression, a hundred war horses formed a circle, spinning counterclockwise continuously.

"Beautiful!" Gao Yuan couldn't help applauding. In the eyes of the Huns and Donghu people, this is nothing, but in the Central Plains, it is very unusual for a cavalry team to make such a tactical move.

"It's nothing, just look at it, there's more!" He Lanyan smiled with her lips pursed.

Not far away, the infantry protruded with a horse, the horse held high, and made a false chop several times. From the gap where the infantry drove out, two cavalrymen on the left and right came out side by side. In the blink of an eye, the circle just now became two The road column, galloping on the grassland, the horses are like the wind, the sword light is like snow, and a wave of swords is drawn on the grassland.

After several conflicts, the infantry took the lead again and came straight in the direction of Gao Yuan. Behind him, two columns were straight, and with the infantry's saber raised high, it was like a thick tree trunk. Suddenly, countless On the branches, small groups of cavalry separated from the main trunk, forming small semicircles one after another.

"Excellent!" Although Gao Yuan is not very familiar with cavalry combat, he only needs to watch the formation changes of the infantry to know that this is a very powerful routine in cavalry combat.

"Of course, this is the most important breakthrough of concentrated forces in cavalry combat. Once a breakthrough is formed, it will immediately be interspersed with encirclement and division. After cutting the enemy apart, they will be divided and wiped out." He Lanyan said with a smile, "This is the most common attack by our Hun cavalry. The tactics used have been tried and tested."

"In less than a month, you can train them so well. It seems that I, the coach, really hired the right one." Gao Yuan sighed.

"Of course you are not wrong, but Gao Yuan, don't be too complacent. They are just a shelf now. If they really want to use them on the battlefield as they like, they are still too far away. I have never experienced it." A few times of actual combat, encountering some sudden difficulties to test their adaptability, they are far from being called a strong cavalry." He Lanyan said.

"It's already pretty good." Gao Yuan said with a smile: "Now facing us is the powerful Donghu cavalry. Do you still expect them to be the main force in the battle? I don't want me to work hard to train a cavalry. I will kill them in one battle, they are seeds, they are sparks, and I point them at me to start a prairie fire, take your time, I am not in a hurry."

He Lanyan glanced at Gao Yuan, "Your ambition is not small, but Gao Yuan, don't underestimate them, your cavalry is the most disciplined I have ever seen, stronger than our Hun cavalry Quite a few, some time ago, when you were not around, they were often in danger during training, bumped into each other, or fell off the horse, but the people behind ignored the danger in front and still rode straight up. I also reprimanded them for this them, but do you know how they answered me?"

"How to say?"

"They said, you have taught them that when the command to charge is sounded, even if there are mountains of fire and knives in front of you, and cliffs of ten thousand zhang,

You must also face up to difficulties without the slightest hesitation, without the slightest hesitation, so even if your companions fall, you can't stop, because once you stop, more people will fall. "He Lanyan shook her head and said: "This kind of thinking makes the training dangerous, but it also forces every soldier to be ten thousand times more careful during the training, because this way of doing it, people will be killed at any time during the training. Come. Among our Hun cavalry, this kind of situation will not happen. Once something happens, the people behind will immediately react to avoid it. Although the dangerous situation is chaotic, unnecessary injuries are avoided. After seeing your subordinates, I realized that there is really a difference between the two. "

Gao Yuan nodded slightly, looking at the cavalry team in the distance on the grassland, he felt extremely relieved in his heart. The discipline concept that he had instilled in them all the time since he joined the army has finally begun to reap the fruits.

The same is true for cavalry and infantry. They are the backbone of a powerful army. With them, the hope of building a strong army can be realized.

"Their riding skills and horse fighting have basically passed the test, and the next step is the problem of proficiency. In the next stage, I am going to train them in the art of galloping and shooting. You have more than a hundred cavalry, and only the infantry is more proficient. Basically Others are shooting at horses, basically aimlessly, this is more difficult and may take more time." He Lanyan said.

"Okay, what we need most is time, isn't it?" Gao Yuan said with a smile: "Take your time, don't worry, you can't become fat if you eat in one bite, I would rather slow down and let them practice better. If you are tough on yourself, if you practice your skills well, your chances of surviving on the battlefield will increase exponentially in the future."

"Ten years of sharpening a sword, Gao Yuan, how long are you going to spend sharpening your sword?" He Lanyan asked.

"If it takes ten years, I won't worry, we are still young, right?" Gao Yuan laughed.

"But my elder brother always said, time doesn't wait for me!" He Lanyan said.

"Haste makes waste!" Gao Yuan shook his head and said, "Stop when you should stop, practice your internal skills diligently, and make a blockbuster when you should move."

"You are right, we are still very weak now, whether it is the Donghu people or the majority of the Huns, if they really target us, we really can't handle it, Gao Yuan, you are too, according to what you said, Now is the time we need to sting, eh?"

"You're right, it's time to lie down for a while." Gao Yuan turned his head and looked in the direction of Juliguan, "If you don't sing, it will be a blockbuster. When the world looks at us with admiration, we are no longer the current one. Weak seedlings can be broken off by them at any time, but they have already grown thick tree trunks, whoever wants to cut us off must be prepared to break their knives, and that is the time when we will be powerful."

"I will tell my brother what you said, sometimes I think he is too anxious." He Lanyan said thoughtfully.

While speaking, the infantry had completed their drills, and groups of cavalry rushed over from a distance, forming a neat cavalry phalanx a dozen meters in front of Gao Yuan.

"Lord County Lieutenant, the Fufeng cavalry team has completed the drill, please give me some pointers." The infantryman dismounted from his horse, strode up to Gao Yuan, clenched his fist with his left hand, and slammed his right chest leather hard, saying loudly.

"Okay, not bad!" Gao Yuan laughed and took a step forward, punched the infantry hard, and raised his head, "Brothers, it is said that after three days of separation, we should look at you with admiration. You not only impress me, you also make me look up Even the eyeballs almost fell out."

With a bang, more than a hundred cavalrymen roared with laughter, with incomparable pride in their laughter.

"In order to reward the hard work of the brothers, tonight, I will add meals, kill sheep, and kill cattle. In addition, today I make an exception and allow everyone to drink, one catty each, so that everyone can have a good time." Gao Yuan waved his hands, Loudly.

"Thank you, Lord Lieutenant!" The soldiers were pleasantly surprised. In the army, the food is nothing to say now. It is much better than that of ordinary people. With so many cattle and sheep raised in Curie, there is never a shortage of meat. According to Gao Yuan's mandatory regulations, everyone must also drink a bowl of fresh milk or goat's milk every day. From being unaccustomed at the beginning to being accustomed to it now, these soldiers have begun to experience the benefits, and everyone's body grows strong Up to now, with enough nutrition guaranteed, the amount of training is getting bigger and bigger, but the physical response is getting smaller and smaller instead. The protruding and angular muscles on everyone's body are the best reward for Gao Yuan's painstaking efforts from the beginning.

But alcohol is still banned in the army. There is alcohol in the camp, but you can't drink it at all, you can only watch it drooling. One catty per person is enough for everyone to have a good time.

"Let's go, let's go home!" Turning on the horse, he stretched out his hand to pull He Lanyan up, Gao Yuan waved his hand and shouted loudly.

It was night, and the lights were turned off in Juli. On the campus, more than a dozen bonfires were lit. There were shelves on the surface, and a bunch of slaughtered and stripped sheep were hung on it. The soldiers spread the felt blankets on the ground, and in front of them, there were sea bowls one after another. In the bowls were pieces of burnt beef and mutton, still dripping with oil, and a jar of fine wine was opened. Cover, thunderous cheers in the field.

This is the first time they celebrated on such a large scale. Firstly, they held a late celebration banquet. After annihilating the Hutu tribe and capturing Latobe alive, because Gao Yuan then followed Lu Hong to Liaoxi City, the celebration banquet was very convenient. It was dragged down, and secondly, it was to celebrate Gao Yuanrong's appointment as Fufeng County Captain. As their direct leader, Gao Yuan's promotion also means that everyone here will rise with the tide. The atmosphere in the field is one round higher than one round.

As the leader here, Gao Yuan is naturally the main object of congratulations and toasts. Gao Yuan drinks a lot and will not refuse anyone. The other person to be toasted is He Lanyan, and the toasts to her are mainly from the infantry and cavalry. She was not so lucky, before the banquet was halfway through, the bold He Lanyan was already in a trance, and fell headfirst on Gao Yuan's body, but she was still unwilling to go back, so she just used the ground as a seat, and the earth and the sky as a beggar , with Gao Yuan's thigh as a pillow, just fell asleep in the starry sky.
