Seeing Li Meng's breathing calmly, Master Ning and Luo Xi were relieved. Although Li Erlang was strong and brave, he usually gave people a feeling of being calm and self-control. This kind of anger is really rare, and I don't know the reason for the anger. Our Ming Emperors have been arrested by the Western Li Tartars. If you know, you still want to vomit blood.

Li Meng calmed down. He patted his forehead and thought that he was really too anxious. What is the use of such a general trend in the world? Li Meng raised his head and spoke to Rossi on the side and said:

"Go to Fengmeng Town to find Guo Dong and told him that what I want is very urgent and I need to be as soon as possible. I can't wait here for a few years!"

When Rosie heard this, she was so lucky that she quickly turned around and ran out of the door. The atmosphere in the main hall was so strange that it was inconspicuous. Ning Gangui looked at Rosie and was very envious. At this time, Li Meng calmed down and sat on the chair again, looking at the newspaper.

The so-called news about the Donglu Jurchens is to invade Datong Xuanfu. The entire county town of Lingqiu County, from the magistrate to civil and military officials at all levels, died in battle. The magistrate's family died in the country. This matter also passed by lightly. It seems that after the Donglu Jurchens retreated, they didn't take it seriously.

On the contrary, there were really a lot of pens and inks in the Shaanxi thief army in the Chexiang Gorge. Li Meng's pitiful historical knowledge finally had a place to use his skills. "The thief army used a plan and escaped from the Chexiang Gorge in chaos. The thief heads Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai, Li Zicheng and other troops all fled."

At least there are many names in this section, and Li Meng still knows them.

Compared to Li Meng's anxiety, the pace of life of others was as usual. The contents of the following newspapers began to become calm again. The above just said that the court did not compete with the people for profit, canceled many commercial taxes and monopoly taxes, and at the same time, it increased the taxes on a large scale. In the name of border troubles and internal thieves, it was distributed to farmers, and the ministers in the court exchanged them like a lantern. However, the chief minister Wen Tiren was firmly sitting in the court, which was considered an anomaly.

With Li Meng's historical knowledge and limited understanding in this era, we can also see that the method of increasing taxes is really ridiculous. Listening to the people around us, the Jiangnan area is extremely prosperous, but the taxes there are constantly decreasing, and natural disasters are constantly being caused. The farmers are sad, but they still have to pay more taxes.

I don’t think about the so-called rioters in Shaanxi and the world. For thousands of years, Chinese farmers have been the most forbearing and kind-hearted class. It’s not that they can’t survive. There must be no one doing the beheaded and rebellious activities.

After a few days of anxiety, Li Meng finally returned to normal and his life continued. The world trend is the only way, even if you are a private salt dealer, you have no say, even though you are a big salt dealer.

In modern times, Qingdao is still a good place to rely on the beach in August, but it is still stuffy if it is in the nearby suburbs, and air conditioners have always been a hot product.

But in this era, in Laizhou Prefecture in August, it can be said that it is breeze and cool and pleasant. Li Meng is the kind of person who is afraid of heat and likes coldness. He was still worried about how to spend the summer without air conditioning. Who would have thought that the climate difference between hundreds of years was so big.

Although Li Meng was comfortable, some older Liao people around him were not happy. When asked why, the older answered:

"According to the rules of the Apocalypse, it's cold this summer, and there's no rain in the next year. Farmers rely on this rain!"

It seems that this is not a good thing. Although I feel comfortable, the people are suffering from drought and rain every year, and the imperial court has increased taxes. However, looking at the thousands of people in his private salt system and the thousands of people extending out of the population, they live in food and clothing throughout the year. In this peaceful land in the chaotic times, Li Meng always feels a little proud.

People feel the comfort of the weather does not mean they need to relax. Li Meng's daily life is to ride horses between Jiaozhou City and Fengmeng Town. It is not that he is so busy that he wants to run back and forth between the two ends, but that he has to exercise his riding skills. Li Meng must have no talent for riding horses, so he can only practice hard.

Now the sides of my thighs are finally no longer covered in flesh and blood, and they are much more resistant to wear. They can ride on horseback. The feeling is still very good, and the feeling is different than riding a motorcycle and driving.

Near the Lijia Manor in Fengmeng Town, there is a pretty good flat ground, which was circled by Li Mengbai. As a place to practice riding, Li Meng now has nearly 300 horses on his hands, and there are about 100 salt teams stationed in Jiaozhou and Fengmeng Town.

More than 2,000 salt stewards were recruited, and only a few dozen people could ride horses. Most of them were military children who had experienced the training of their own soldiers in the garrison.

The dozens of young people who brought their own horses that were lowered this time were recruited. No matter how they looked at it, they did not look like good people.

According to Zhao Neng and Chen Liuzi, these people must be good bandits who want to become good people. If they become strong people, they may not be able to get the income earned by salt diners. Moreover, their income is irregular when hungry and full, which is comparable to that under Li Meng's hands, and they are not only majestic but also glorious outside.

Of course, Li Meng would not be a big deal when these messy people come in. Everyone has special people to watch. After these dozens of days, these people have been training honestly and have not caused any trouble. However, young people always have some conflicts with each other. These salt dicks riding horses think they have been rampant outside for many years. Who would have thought that they would fight with the salt dicks, whether they fight one-on-one or group fights, they didn't get any advantage. This is to keep going.

Forty new recruits, thirty old salt dicks, including Li Meng, there are 71 people in total. As long as Li Meng was in Fengmeng Town, everyone will train riding and cavalry together.

The instructor invited was not simple. It is said that he had fought the White Lotus Sect in the past, but now he is the personal leader of the commander of the Lingshan Guard. Li Meng offered him a price of 50 taels per month. Of course, the commander of the Lingshan Guard gave him a generous gift.

Anyway, it was the peaceful age, and I was idle. The commander and the officer were smiling at the extra money. The leader of the personal soldier was named Zhang Minglin. He was almost fifty years old. He was full of red face and could not see any white hair and beard. He looked very powerful, especially the scar on his left cheek, which made him even more tough.

Zhang Lin’s riding skills are extremely amazing. Zhang Lin used to do some of the movements that Li Meng only saw during a circus performance.

"You fucking spread your legs and squeeze your horse's belly. Are you having an affair with the horse? Use your heels and your heels! If I were by your side, I would kick you off the horse with one kick!"

"Honestly hold your spear under your arm, do you think it's a trick-playing style?"

"Get closer, close, you guys are not girls, may you be the ones who are next to you ruin your reputation!"

Whenever he was training, Zhang Lin followed everyone on a bad horse, watching everyone practice there, and cursed him while cursing. At best, the salt geniuses could ride horses. Although the new geniuses could ride horses, there were many sloppy places. After Zhang Lin came, he lost his temper and corrected them here every day.

When he first went to invite people through Ma Gang's father Ma Baihu, Zhang Lin said to Li Meng casually:

"I can't tell you, a boy, have some vision. I know that training the horse team is looking for experts like us. Your two tricks are just a trick of fighting in the field. If you don't use Grandpa Qi's methods, the horse fighting will not work."

This made Li Meng very choke, but once we got to the training, we could see that this old military household was really capable. He was definitely an expert in training to raise troops. The military households in the Ming Dynasty were not all farmers who farmed, and there were some soldiers and officers who were proficient in combat formations. However, these people were too old and had few people. The hereditary system and military fields of the military households were easy to breed laziness. Even the Ming Dynasty court knew that the military office could not rely on, and the soldiers they used were only relying on the side soldiers and recruiting soldiers.

The soldiers and generals in the garrison who know how to fight and know how to fight will not play any role in combat, but they will be of great effect as teachings and fire seeds for inheritance.

No one wants to pay attention to these veterans. The garrison is farming and harvesting grain. No one is willing to consider the matter of war. Only Qianhu and the commander have the possibility of going to battle. This is how these people are retained by their side, but this may be very small.

Li Meng's invitation this time is really a use of everything.

For Li Meng, the descriptions of ancient cavalry in various modern film and television media are nonsense, which is really misleading. Especially when coach Zhang Lin and Zhang train, first of all, the cavalry also have a queue, and they must be very close to each other to form a formation. Otherwise, the cavalry will be alone and have no advantage in facing infantry holding long weapons. Furthermore, the speed of the horse running must be controlled well, and the horse power is very limited. If you let go of the Mercedes-Benz from the beginning, you will probably lose your strength before you rush to the front, so you must control the horse speed to ensure the final burst sprint speed.

There is also the use of horse weapons. When the horses were moving, the horse knights were waving the big sword and spear in their hands in the films and TV series. They were extremely majestic. Before Zhang Lin came, these new and old salt kids riding horses, including Li Meng, were slashing and assassinating the horses.

As a result, Zhang Lin came over and strictly prohibited these actions. The reason for persuading everyone was very simple. He placed a dead pig on a wooden stake that was one person high, exposed the pig's head on the top of the wooden stake, and found two salt dicks who were known as equestrianism, and asked them to cut off the pig's head with a knife and pierce the pig's head with a spear during the high-speed movement of the horses.

There are no wooden stakes behind the pig's head, so there is no need to worry about being hit and knocked back.

As a result, Li Meng was surprised. The quick riding horse came to the front and raised his knife to slash. The knife hit the knife. He screamed in pain and rolled down from the horse. The situation of piercing with a spear was not much better. The spear stabbed the pig's head and rolled down from the horse in a very embarrassing manner.

Both salt kids dislocated their arms and were not seriously injured. They could only get a doctor to cure them. But if the cavalry landed on the battlefield and the weapons burst out, it would be a word death.

Li Meng clearly remembered Zhang Lin's words when he walked to the two salt dicks and cursed:

"You two bastards, the horse's move is probably the ability to rob the way and kill the people. The horse under your crotch is so powerful, what move do you want to do? With your strength plus horsepower, it is a good thing to dislocate your arm. If you are on the battle formation, even if the other party takes a wooden sign, your arm will be broken!"

Only then did Li Meng realize that when the horse moves forward and runs, the knight only needs to control the direction of the weapon, and hold it up, the horse's impulse is enough to make the weapon have the power to kill people. These are skills and knowledge that have never been heard of before.

Since this time, Li Meng naturally obeyed Zhang Linyan. There was only one argument between the two sides, namely, training every day or every three days. Zhang Lin was obviously familiar with the Ming army. When he argued with Li Meng, he said with striking words:

"Grandpa Qi's army is just a school for five days. Each battalion and division are leading the army in front of the school. That is already a strong army in the world. What's the hard work of your salt team that investigates and smuggles!"

Li Meng really didn't know how to answer this sentence, but in the end he just said:

"January fifty taels of silver, it's not about practicing you. Teacher Zhang, just practice it."

Originally, when the generals on this side were majestic on horseback, they were all at the front of the array when charging into the formation, holding weapons in their hands and waving everywhere. No one could defeat them wherever they went.

However, according to Zhang Lin, if you, a general, have to follow the soldiers below to fight, you will be in a desperate situation and be ready to fight to the death. But Li Meng can be said to be ignorant of fighting immediately. If you want to follow the training, Zhang Lin will naturally not be unable to get along with his financial backer, so he will let him go.

It was a bit fresh at the beginning, but after two days, there was no meaning at all. It was nothing more than the riders who were riding horses into several rows, with several distances between each row. The knights in the same row tried to get the horses close as close as possible to make the horse steps consistent, and the spears in their hands should be aligned as much as possible.

Hold the spear in your right hand, the tip of the spear droops, and hold the spear with your arm. When you are about to stab the target, adjust the angle and be prepared to let go at any time. Do not stab the arms and wrists forward or backward, and even the strength of the spear you hold should be of magnitude.

Of course, Li Meng also knew that this model was extremely effective. After all, his salt diced was just a lineup, and his physical fitness and assassination training were not much more interesting than this.

If Zhang Lin is really a qualified coach, when Li Meng was on the horse with those cavalry, this old man never cared about feelings and scolded loudly. Li Meng could only listen honestly. No matter how embarrassed or boring the scolding was, Li Meng still insisted on practicing hard.
