The heavens start from saving Daming

On the riding and archery training ground, Li Yunze performed his riding and archery skills in front of thousands of Qin knights.

The so-called fancy style is to use a flurry of arrows to empty the quiver in one breath while galloping, and shoot a flower on the target.

A flower shot by an arrow looks like a peacock spreading its tail on the target.

In the military, we talk about seniority, family background, ancestors, and...
Just like Zhao Kuo, he was able to become a general because of his birthplace and ancestors.

In fact, the same is true for the Qin State. There is no difference between Wang Bi, Meng Yi brothers, etc.

When these are not available, then you have to rely on your true ability.

For the cavalry of the Qin State, they still recognized Li Yunze's superb shooting skills, at least they believed that this man had real ability.

The next training will be much simpler.

The main training direction is military formation and technical and tactical coordination.

After half a month, the Mo family used ox carts to deliver the three-piece cavalry suit that Li Yunze wanted, and the training intensity quickly increased.

Three months passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Ying Zheng led a group of generals out of Xianyang City and went to the military camp outside Yueyang City, preparing to verify the combat effectiveness of the cavalry trained by Li Yunze.

The generals were puzzled to see that the Queen Mother's carriage was actually traveling with the King.

"The Queen Mother is concerned about the combat effectiveness of the Qin army, so she went to watch it with the King."

This is the reason given by the eunuchs around Zhao Ji.

Because Ying Zheng has not yet taken charge, the generals still agree with this rhetoric.

On the luxurious carriage, Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Ji who was full of expectation, and said with a smile, "Mother, there is no need to worry. I have great trust in the master's ability. If he says it can be done, it will be done."

"That's what Zheng'er said."

Zhao Ji responded with a smile, "You have to make good use of your master."

"It's natural."

In fact, this is the reason why Lu Buwei wants to control Zhao Ji indirectly through Lao Ai, because as long as he can be pierced into his heart, Zhao Ji will provide help at all costs. This behavior can be referred to as love brain.

At this time, Zhao Ji certainly didn't care whether the Qin army's combat effectiveness would be improved.

In her heart, she only looked forward to seeing Li Yunze again.

After that night of romance, Zhao Ji tossed and turned every night, unable to sleep.

If you have never eaten something delicious, forget it, but after eating a delicious meal, you will naturally think about it all the time, thinking about tasting it again or even continuing to taste it.

In the camp outside Yueyang City, the cavalry gathered neatly in formations of a hundred cavalry.

The wind blew, and the flags were fluttering and making a sound. There was absolutely nothing to say about the momentum.

Of course, except for Ying Zheng and Zhao Ji, the generals who followed did not pay attention.

The military formations they had seen were much larger than this one, and the momentum was naturally greater.

However, there were also sharp-eyed generals who saw the innovations in the equipment of the cavalry.

“It feels like there’s a lot more than before.”

"The things on both sides of my feet seem to be quite useful."

In the midst of the discussion, Li Yunze, who followed the local custom and styled himself a Qin army hairstyle, put on a single-layer crown and a red scarf around his neck, came to Ying Zheng holding the sword on his waist, "Your Majesty, a Qian Jingqi has been properly trained."

"Thank you for your hard work, Master."

Ying Zheng said with a smile on his face, "I am here this time to see the achievements of Tai Tu."

Ignoring Zhao Ji's gaze that seemed to be filled with flames, Li Yunze nodded, "The competition has been arranged. Your Majesty, just watch."

The reason why this competition was organized was to let the generals see the extremely powerful combat effectiveness of the cavalry after the reform, so that they would spontaneously support the expedition to the west to obtain pastures and horses.

Of course, what Ying Zheng said to him was that the New Army was only loyal to the king and other nonsense.

Under the attention of everyone, the horns and drums rumbled, and a thousand cavalry and the opponent's thousand infantry began to spread out and form formations.

The infantry were arranged in a standard Qin formation.

Although there are not many in number, they are equipped with crossbows, foot soldiers, chariots and cavalry.

The infantry holding long spears are in front, and the long soldiers holding extra-long spears form a forest of long soldiers.

These long soldiers were originally used to resist the impact of chariots, because the real main assault force in this era was chariots.

Of course, it is also perfect for resisting cavalry.

Behind the long-armed infantry were beryllium and halberd bearers holding shorter weapons, beryllium and halberds.

Their job is to take the initiative to counterattack to eliminate the enemy or drive them out of the military formation when the soldiers are disrupted.

On the real cold weapon battlefield, when fighting face to face, long soldiers are basically the main ones. Even the shortest halberd is two or three meters long.

After all, anyone who has been on the battlefield knows that 'an inch long, an inch strong. '

The longer the weapon, the greater your advantage.

The kind of people holding swords and slashing at each other cannot be said not to exist. I can only say that most of them appear in movies and TV series.

Behind the infantry are the Qin army's powerful crossbowmen.

The Qin army also used bows, but the training of archers was slow, and it took at least one or two years to achieve some success.

Therefore, the main force of the Qin army's long-range troops is to cultivate crossbowmen who are easy to train and convenient.

They held Qin crossbows to form a crossbow formation, and under the volley, the overwhelming crossbow arrows provided long-range coverage.The Qin Nu has a very long range and its lethality is at least a hundred meters away. In this era of low productivity and low technological level, it is already very powerful.

Of course, everyone knows the weakness, which is that the reloading is too slow.

Located on both sides of the battle formation are chariots and cavalry.

There are not many of them, they are mainly used for reconnaissance, harassment, etc.

Although there were only a thousand people, after the army was arrayed, all the Qin army generals smiled one after another.

Meng Wu asked Wang Jian next to him, "Who can break the formation of our Qin army?"

Wang Jian was thoughtful. He first looked back at his son who was standing behind the king, and then he looked back and responded, "Since the master dares to set up a formation for a drill in front of us, he is naturally somewhat confident. "

As one of the four famous generals, Wang Jian has a calm personality and can calm down and think about problems.

Meng Wu is different. He is a fierce general. "Our Great Qin army formation is unparalleled in the world, but just a thousand riders want to break it? It's really ridiculous."

Fan Yuqi, who was standing next to him, followed up and said, "I heard there is another one, where three thousand infantry will fight against one thousand cavalry."

"what?"

All the generals were shocked, and then they said angrily, "Who are you looking down on!"

"Three thousand Qin Rui are enough to defeat ten thousand armies! Just wait, after it's over, I will definitely let the master give an explanation in front of the king!"

The rumble of drums sounded, and the generals stopped talking. They all stood on the high platform and watched carefully.

Li Yunze got on his horse, waved the sword in his hand and started to accelerate gradually with the cavalry behind him.

Groups of cavalrymen began to run after them, and soon formed a long dragon, circling a hundred steps away from the formation.

The one who leads the infantry formation is a "two to five hundred master". That's right, this is the official military position in the Qin army.

There are two [-] Lords under his jurisdiction, and he has thousands of soldiers, so the official position is called "[-] Lords".

Of course, Li Yunze directly addressed him as Commander.

Because cavalry has always been considered an auxiliary force, the surrounded commanders still held contempt in their hearts, and quickly ordered the crossbowmen to go out to fire crossbow arrows.

Seeing this scene, Li Yunze immediately distanced himself, forcing the crossbowman to move forward farther to fire the crossbow arrows.

When the crossbowmen finally lined up and prepared to fire their crossbows, as the flag bearer beside Li Yunze waved the flag, two centurions immediately rushed out of the long queue, rushing towards the crossbowmen at high speed, one on the left and the other on the right.

The crossbowman, who was under pressure, released his crossbow, and the infantry behind him quickly stepped forward to respond.

But the cavalry was extremely fast. Except for those who were hit by crossbow arrows that had their arrows removed and replaced with linen-wrapped crossbow arrows, the rest of the cavalry quickly rushed into the crossbowmen's formation and hacked away with wooden weapons wrapped in linen.

By the time the two groups of cavalry passed by each other and returned to the long queue, the crossbowmen in the formation were basically covered in white flour from the linen.

These crossbowmen were judged dead and had to leave the field.

Of course, those who were unlucky enough to be trampled by horses would be seriously injured or even killed.

After the Qin army's long-range power was eliminated, the next step was the performance of the cavalry.

The long dragon composed of thousands of riders closed the distance, and the crossbows in their hands fired rounds of arrow rain, covering the infantry formation.

These arrows were replaced by arrows stained with white linen cloth, leaving white marks on the infantry's bodies.

The captain became anxious and shouted orders urging his soldiers to attack.

But the soldiers' legs could not outrun the cavalry's four legs.

Thousands of cavalrymen, under the command of Li Yunze, controlled the distance through constant movement and continuously covered them with arrow rain.

In less than two moments, Huan Jue, who served as the magistrate, ordered his troops to call for gold and withdraw their troops, ending the drill.

A group of magistrates came forward to inspect and found that there were as many as six to seven hundred infantrymen with white spots on their bodies. If the troops had not been withdrawn in advance, the entire army would have been annihilated, which would have been obvious to anyone with a discerning eye.

As for the cavalry, the losses were only a few dozen.

All the generals and Ying Zheng rushed to the cavalry to observe and inquire carefully.

"Why is the ride so smooth?"

“How come everyone can control a horse with just their legs?”

"How is it possible to quickly reload a crossbow bolt on a running horse?"

"The commanders of each team are as good as their fingers. How do you do it?"

"."

A series of eager and excited inquiries were enough to prove that the generals were anxious.

Li Yunze naturally answered them one by one, letting them understand in detail how the cavalry's combat effectiveness has improved after technological innovation.

“The high bridge saddle provides stability.”

"Bilateral stirrups combined with saddles can free both hands to skillfully use various weapons."

"With strict training, you can naturally use your fingers like an arm."

When the questioning gradually subsided, Wang Jian came out of the queue and saluted Ying Zheng.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to fight in the next martial arts performance."

Ying Zheng looked at Li Yunze naturally.

Li Yunze, on the other hand, looked at the famous Wang Jian and then smiled.

"can."
