Chapter 119 Izumo Riding and Shooting

Three thousand cavalrymen made the entire village look like iron. With a command, countless rockets were shot into the village by archers like burning locusts.

Since it is autumn, the weather is dry and the fire spreads very quickly, and it keeps burning like you don’t have money. In a blink of an eye, almost all the whole village was covered by the fire. Fortunately, Yan Shun and others cut down all the trees close to a mile outside the village in order to better observe the situation outside the village. This also allowed me to use fire to boldly attack. Otherwise, I would have to send troops to attack the village like Qin Ming, and I would have to send troops to attack the village like Qin Ming.

While thinking, I suddenly heard a soldier shouting loudly: "Stop them, don't let them run away!"

I turned my head and saw that the four fast horses rushed out from the small gate next to me. The soldiers defending the mountain formation were caught off guard by the sudden appearance. They could only watch the four fast horses rushed out with the knights on their backs, forcibly breaking through the defense of the mountain formation and roaring away

Around my brows, a sound of war horses neighing suddenly came from beside me. I turned my head and saw Hua Rong, a group of war horsemen standing up and turning around. The horse's front palm fell to the ground, and its four hooves rushed towards the four escaped thieves. They didn't walk very far. Hua Rong had a bow and four arrows, and the strings sounded, and the bow was closed, and the horse was stopped. The four escaped thieves landed on the ground.

Look at Hua Rong again, and walked slowly to the side of the four people with a light and chic style. One of them had another knife on their necks, took back the tooth arrows on their bodies, and then stepped back on the horse.

Can I swear and say a word? Hua Rong is so cool now. In addition, this guy is so handsome and looks like a cheater, which makes people jealous. However, his archery skills are really unparalleled in the world, which suddenly makes me have the idea of ​​letting Hua Rong form a light archer.

There were archers and cavalrymen in the Song Dynasty, but they were heavy archers. This kind of cavalry had very high lethality, but they had two fatal flaws, namely their relatively slow speed and small number of personnel. The power of heavy archers lies in their large number, and the heavy arrows fired lies in their overwhelming momentum and huge long-range suppression force.

I remember that in later historical books, there was a record of the Mongolians' use of light archers, called "Mongolian Explosion Method". In continuous movement, arrows were fired, and even arrows were fired backwards while running away. Often, a few soldiers could influence the ending of a battle.

Looking at Hua Rong, who is as light as the wind and as elegant as the clouds, look at his calm expression when he bent his bow and arrow, as if he reached out to clear the clouds and mist, as if he was like my Yuner's feeling of stepping on the clouds when he used his light skills. Then I think the name of this army is called "Izuki Kaizhang"

The fire burned for a whole day. It was in the evening that the fire gradually went out. I ordered the soldiers to stay here for one night. The next morning, all soldiers were allowed to enter the village to search.

As the fire spread, most of the property turned into ashes, but there will always be lucky soldiers who find some unexpected surprises in the ruins after the burning, and I told Hua Rong about the thoughts of the previous day. Hua Rong naturally agreed with my suggestion with great joy.

The civil and military skills I learned are sold to the imperial family. This sentence is not a simple empty saying. In ancient times, people studied and practiced martial arts, but they hoped that one day they could be named after the title of the Golden List.

"The Huaqing family, in the north of the Liao Kingdom, is a more distant place. They are called the Mongolians. They are born on horseback. They are both great at riding and shooting, and are extremely brave. They have a light-hailing method called the Mongolian gangster. They can accurately shoot sharp arrows in their hands on the horseback that is constantly moving. But yesterday, I saw that the Huaqing family's archery skills are excellent, and their level is definitely not inferior to those Mongolians."

"Hua Rong thanks Your Majesty for his appreciation. As long as Your Majesty respects Hua Rong, Hua Rong was the one who smashed the hard stones and cut the deep water. On the day of the war, regardless of the swords and seas of fire in front of you, Hua Rong is willing to drive away his Majesty the death." After hearing my words, Hua Rong's face turned red with excitement, and hurriedly hugged me with both fists and expressed his loyalty.

"Hahaha... OK, Hua Aiqing's words are so ambitious and full of heroism. I have thought about it yesterday. Among all the cavalry in the Song Dynasty, there is still a purely light archer and cavalryman. I think this matter will be taken care of by the Hua Qing family." I looked at Hua Rong and said to him.

"I'll ask your Majesty to give me instructions."

"This light cavalry, I named it Izumo Cavalry, and together with the name of the current Concubine De Chu Yun, at the beginning of its establishment, I gave you a military quota of 20,000 people. The equipment of this army was first designated as two carved bows, one saber, one short knife, one dagger, and twenty wolf teeth heavy arrows, used for short shooting, one hundred small chisel head wooden feather arrows, used for long-range armor-breaking, twenty flying arrows, five fork arrows, and those with over 10 centuries, will be given ten number arrows. The soldiers of the entire army only wore leather armor and one leather helmet. Hua Rong, remember, this light cavalry bow unit, I don't need them to rush for me in close combat, they only need to shoot arrows on the periphery and continuously shoot long-range shots on the enemy, but I, I, no matter what, you must train each of them to be a sharpshooter who hits a hundred shots. Can you do it?"

"Don't worry, your Majesty, even if you are heartbroken, you will definitely not let your Majesty down." Hua Rong's eyes were filled with firm flames and said, bowing to me and saying, "

"At that time, you will go back to Beijing with me. When the Ministry of War sends you a letter of official letter, you will go directly to Hetao South Road and report to General Hu Yanzhuo. He will arrange everything for you."

"Yes, your majesty, the last will follow the order."

The camera turned to the ruins burned by the fire. Looking around, there were all ruins after burning. No one living person was. Apart from the gadgets that were occasionally picked up by soldiers, it was probably only the ruins in front of him that proved that this copycat had existed.
