Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 175 Long Lance Invades the Sky Half-round Saber Shining the Sunlight
That night, the courtyard of Luo Cheng's family was almost lively all night, and it was not until dawn that everyone finally dispersed.The [-] dumplings that the whole family made during the day were all eaten up, and even some dried fruits brought by the brothers-in-law were eaten up.

After the person left, there was a lot of fruit peels and melon seed shells left in the yard, but Luo's father was very happy.

The bustle in the courtyard last night, in his mind, was probably more dazzling than when he was awarded the seventh-rank personal guard and held the pumpkin hammer in the Golden Palace.That was based on his father's shadow, but what happened last night was obtained by his own son.

Last night, Seventh Uncle even proposed that the Luo family be included in the Luo family tree of Nanshan Village, making them truly the Luo family of Nanshan.Dad hesitated for a while, and said that he still had to think about it.

When he left Chang'an that year, he was expelled from the family and removed from the Luo family tree in Xiangyang.It is a good thing that someone is willing to accept him, although he also understands that the seventh uncle is willing to accept him into the spectrum, but because his son is the first official from this Nanshan village in 300 years.

The sky is slightly bright.

Luo Cheng got up, and after staying in the county barracks for a long time, he gradually got used to the same routine as the county soldiers.

Although there is no wake-up horn, I still wake up when the time comes.

Because at home, Hui Niang, the righteous daughter, waited there early. When he woke up, she brought him hot water to wash, and brought him the clothes to wear.When Luo Cheng took the clothes, he found that the clothes were warm.It turned out that the girl was very careful. She was afraid that the clothes would be cold in the morning, so she put the clothes by the fire to bake in the morning.

Going out, three teenagers from Kan Ling, all dressed in white, were practicing outside with a horizontal knife in their hands.

The faces of the few guys are now pale, and their complexions are a little ruddy, and they even feel that they are a little thicker.Holding a horizontal knife weighing more than two catties, he was serious about every move and every move, and his head was already sweating slightly from practice.

"Practice well." Luo Cheng praised.

"Father, if I practice well, can I join the county barracks?" Kan Leng asked.

"You are now in the county barracks, and you are my messenger."

"I want to be a real county soldier."

"Then you have to practice martial arts well first, and you have to grow up a bit. You are so small now that you can't even hold your spears straight. You practice horizontal swords now, then you will practice spears and crossbows later, and you will also practice riding in the future." Shoot, practice well, heroes always have a place to play.”

Kan Leng let out an oh, and there was light in his eyes.

"Father, let me fetch your horse."

Wang Xiongdan hurried to get Luo Cheng's horse and armor.

When he brought them the horse and lance, Siye, Cunxiao and Xiaoliu all came over.

The eldest and the second are still sleeping in the house, they are not very fascinated by martial arts, and serving in the county barracks is actually mostly a name, just to avoid service.Now that Luo Cheng has a formal official position, Luo Cheng has become an unregistered household, and they no longer have to worry about serving in the military, so the two have decided not to go to the county barracks anymore.

Luo Cheng didn't force them, and arranged for them to be full-time in charge of the blacksmith workshop in the county barracks and the blacksmith shop at home. One of these two shops is the public property of the county barracks, and the other is private property of the Luo family. It is an iron pot, and the sales volume is not bad. Although the price is not cheap, the main sales targets are those big, wealthy, businessmen and landlords.It's just that the output is too low now, and it is completely handmade, which is very time-consuming.

Luo Cheng also had no way to quickly increase production. After all, although he could buy some slaves to help him, he still needed a master blacksmith.

"Shi Xin, you start today, you learn riding and archery and horse spear with me."

Luo Cheng said to Xiao Liu that Xiao Liu used to practice the eight-edged golden cudgel. The main reason for practicing this was that Xiao Liu had never practiced anything else before. He has great strength and the stick is easy to use.

But now that the conditions are met, Luo Cheng plans to train Xiao Liu well and let him train horses with him.

He has two horse spears, one is for saving Liu Renmei and the other is for inheriting the king's book.Both horse lances are good, Liu Renmei's is worth hundreds of guan, while Wang Bo's is better, worth hundreds of guan.

Wang Bo's one is now his own, so he brings the other one to Shi Xin.

Luo Cheng also asked Siye and Cunxiao before, asking them if they would like to practice horse spears with him, but the two were already used to their swords and knives, so they didn't want to change them.

Shi Xin had no opinion on what to practice, Luo Cheng asked him to practice horse lance, and he nodded in agreement.

The brothers all got on their own mounts, and rode their horses to a flat river beach outside the village to practice riding and shooting swords and guns.

Kan Ling and the other three stood by and practiced together.

Riding and archery is not easy to practice, and it cannot be practiced overnight. First of all, you need a good mount, which must be a well-tuned war horse.It is not an ordinary horse that can go into battle. A horse has to undergo special training to adapt him to various situations on the battlefield.

For example, you have to practice various obstacles, and you have to practice him to adapt to various sounds and fire lights.

Otherwise, if an ordinary horse is pulled into the battlefield, it is easy to be frightened and run wildly, while a well-trained war horse can move forward bravely even in the face of fire and loud noise.

You have to practice the tacit understanding with the horse. There is no shortcut to these. You can only take time out to practice every day and keep beating to improve your proficiency little by little.

Without a year or two, don't even think about being proficient in riding.

While practicing riding, he also practiced riding and shooting.

It is more difficult to shoot an arrow immediately than step down.

Generally, there are three kinds of archery immediately.One is to shoot forward, the other is to shoot back, and the third is to turn around and shoot sideways.It seems simple, but it is not easy to keep stable on a high-speed horse and aim at the target.

This not only requires an excellent foundation in archery, but also an excellent coordination with the horse. After all, when archery, the hands have to be out of the rein, and the horse can only be controlled by a pair of legs.

Luo Cheng and the others were better. They had practiced for a while and only fell three or four times in one morning.But Kan Leng's three teenagers were miserable. They fell at least a dozen times in the morning, and their noses were bruised, their faces were swollen, and their buttocks hurt.

But the three teenagers are very persistent, even if they fall down again and again, they climb up again and again.For them, they had already been reduced to beggars, but it was Luo Cheng who gave them another life, not to mention that their adoptive father was willing to equip them with precious war horses for practice, how could they not cherish such a good opportunity.

Luo Shixin gave up the stick and practiced the lance. He only learned a few movements in the morning, but he still couldn't learn it. Luo Cheng patiently taught him hard.

"Let's practice up to here today. When you look back, think about what I taught you today, and continue practicing tomorrow." Luo Cheng comforted Shi Xin.

"Fifth brother, it's better to use an iron rod for simplicity."

"Iron rods are easy to use, but they are not as lethal as horse lances. Now we are mostly facing bandits and bandits, so we can't see any difference. But if one day we face enemies in heavy armor , then having a sharp horse lance can make you even more powerful."

On the way back, Luo Cheng asked Kan Leng the three boys.

"What kind of soldiers do you want to learn in the future?"

Wang Xiongsheng said loudly, "In the future, I will practice horse lance with my adoptive father, riding a fine horse and holding eight lances, it's too majestic."

"Kan Ling, what about you?"

"I want to practice Mo Dao with Sanbo, I think Mo Dao is more powerful."

Siye didn't expect this kid to like Modao, he said with a smile, "Good boy, you have good eyesight, you can come and practice with me when I practice Modao later."

"Thank you, Uncle San."

Seeing this, the fourth child hurriedly said to Ximen Junyi, "Boy, come and practice Chang'an with my uncle, and I will promote you to be the leader of the Chang'an team in the future."

In a word, the fourth child bought Ximen Junyi, so the kid immediately agreed.
