Since the Accounting: A Chronicle of the Roman Khanate

Chapter 79 The Battle Between Bows and Arrows
"Why is this racetrack so close to the artillery?" Jeanna asked, "Didn't it be said that the vicinity of the artillery is not safe?"

"We have to train these horses so that they are not afraid of artillery." Guo Kang explained: "These days, qualified army horses have to be just like people, not afraid of the unique roar of various firearms. In order not to fire a cannon in front, just Scared them away."

"I see." Jeanna nodded, and saw another rider galloping from a distance.

The visitor had long hair, gold ornaments on his forehead, a white burqa, and a green horse.In the smoke and dust from the horse's hooves, the rider shot left and right, hitting the bull's-eye again and again.The other riders were watching and applauded in unison.

"This son is very heroic." Zhu Wenkui also said with emotion: "It would be great if my father recruited more people like this."

"Look carefully." Jeanna said speechlessly.

"what happened?"

"This... this is not the son." Guo Kang said with some embarrassment: "She is a woman."

"Hey?"

Zhu Wenkui was dumbfounded.

The rider also seemed to be curious about them. When passing by, he turned his head and glanced at the siblings.It was only then that Zhu Wenkui discovered that this person had a beautiful face, and his figure was not as bulky as a man's. He was also wearing a hair scarf and tulle, and he was obviously a woman.

"It's all right." Guo Kang said, "It's not my fault. She just came back from Crimea, and you probably haven't seen her before."

"Oh." Jeanna nodded, "What's her name?"

"It's called Kelie Yilanasutu Ningning Baoyin Kexia Anastasia..." Guo Kang began to mutter.

"Wait, isn't it just one person?" Zhu Wenkui interrupted him.

"It's just one person. I haven't finished reading it yet." Guo Kang pointed out: "When a person is in many different cultural circles, it is normal to have a long list of names to explain his identity. And in these cultural circles, names It was not short."

"Brother, you are not in good shape today, so stop talking..." Jeanna said while holding her forehead.

"But, it wasn't this long before, right?" Zhu Wenkui, who kept making mistakes, said unwillingly, "Mr. Guo, where's your name?"

"I also have a local name, Constantine. In fact, the 'Kang' in my name means Constantine. You can take this word as referring to both the city and the people." Guo Kang replied: "It's just , In our generation, there are too many people called Constantine—or the Greek pronunciation, Constantine. So even the Greeks are used to calling me Guo Kang directly.”

"so……"

"The Greek name of Huan Huan is also called Constantine. Anyway, the phenomenon of duplication of names is very serious here, and these names are thrown back and forth. Rome has a long history, and the situation is especially serious." Guo Kang thought for a while, Said: "I remember, among the ancestors of the past dynasties, there are already ten people named Constantine alone. Look, what will happen if the name is repeated."

"Brother, you've been in Europe for so long, so you still don't have this common sense." Jeanna teased.

"I used Chinese to communicate with them before, so I didn't think about it so much." Zhu Wenkui argued strongly: "Tuo Huan has a Chinese name."

"Your brother is telling the truth." Guo Kang smoothed things over for him: "On our side, including those who don't seem to be very educated, they know Chinese and Chinese characters. Speaking of which, Tuo Huan's calligraphy is actually more written than mine. OK."

"Hey? You really can't see it." Jeanna said in surprise, "I think he looks like a Mongolian. So he also learned this?"

"First of all, he doesn't look like a Mongolian. Although he looks like a Greek, strictly speaking he is indeed a Mongolian." Guo Kang had no choice but to refute the rumor: "Secondly, it's not that Mongolians can't learn calligraphy. They also have Shoujin What about the body master?"

"Is that so..."

"As for the girl just now, she also has a Chinese name, so you can just call her Li Anning."

"What's her background?" Jeanne asked curiously.

"She is the princess of the Kelei tribe, and she is on the same level as you." Guo Kang said: "The Kelei tribe was one of the most powerful forces on the grassland at that time, but it was defeated by Genghis Khan and annexed. Stay in People in the old place were broken up into thousands and hundreds of households in the subsequent reforms, and gradually lost their independent tribal status and were absorbed by Mongolia."

"But before that, a group of tribes participated in the Western Expedition led by Jochi. These tribes who participated in the Western Expedition were not required to participate in the reorganization because they were far away, so the tribe remained and later became the Golden Horde. an important part of it.”

"In the last years of the Golden Horde, civil strife continued. The Kelei tribe believed in Nestorianism very early, and her branch has been inherited until now. Therefore, it was squeezed out and robbed by a group of Tianfangjiao tribes. .”

"Later, when we joined forces with Uncle Timur to crusade against Tutuo Milo, her grandfather summoned people who were willing to follow and joined us. After the war, Tutuo Milo was expelled, and the local Golden Tent forces collapsed. , their tribe took the opportunity to migrate to the Volga River area, and took advantage of our protection to set up camp."

"Her family also started marriage at that time, with the nobles of the Khan court. Her grandfather was Yeligosarai Wanhu Yeluxin who was stationed in Kiev." Guo Kang introduced her family.

"Oh, I have a deep impression on him." Zhu Wenkui remembered: "It's the old man who said every day, 'I'm Chinese, so I don't believe in foreign religions'."

"Yes, that's him." Guo Kang said with a smile: "On our side, he is the only one who insists on not believing in God, and he is not even willing to pretend."

"The educational level of these two families is not bad, especially the Yelu family's family. The content of tutoring is similar to ours. The conditions in the pasture land are not as good as those in the city. She has been going to school at her grandfather's house, and she is regarded as her own by the Yelu family. .”

"Originally, when she was a child, she had a Christian name of Anastasia in her hometown, but Yeluxin thought it was too inappropriate to have a foreign name, so she asked her to take a Chinese name. You and her can also directly Those who speak Chinese and write Chinese characters."

"What a good girl with both civil and military skills." Zhu Wenkui finished admiring, then turned his head and said to Rianna: "See, don't talk about worshiping God all day long. She is also your church member, but her mind is very clear. Not as obsessed as you."

"If you study hard, you don't have to worry about me so much. You don't have enough energy all day long." He taught with a headache on his face.

"I can also speak Chinese and write Chinese characters? What's the matter?" Jeanna was unconvinced.

"Do you know how to archery?" Zhu Wenkui asked back: "Sir, you told me that you don't practice at all, and you don't even remember the process of the archery ceremony..."

"I—" Jeanna blushed suddenly: "What's the matter if I don't practice? Can't I practice firecrackers? Bows and arrows are about to be eliminated, so what else do you want to learn?"

"You understand again. What does it mean to be eliminated?" Zhu Wenkui also became dissatisfied, and put on the airs of his elder brother: "Everyone learns, but you don't learn, you are very capable!"

"You just want to be eliminated! You're just a stubborn old man who doesn't understand!"

"Who are you calling stubborn?"

"Stop arguing, stop arguing..." Seeing that they were quarreling for no reason, Guo Kang had no choice but to fight again.

　I'm still not familiar with this character system. On the character page of the app, Li Hui, who was out of love, has become Brother Tian for some reason, and he can't change it back.

　　For the time being, I can only give up, but fortunately, it is not too important a system...

　　If it really doesn’t work, let’s set the Purple Horde Khanate to also go down to earth, so that the level of legitimacy can be greatly improved...
