Guo Lin knew exactly what Xue Ziqin meant, and he brought one of the horses with a strong temper. Zhao Zhinan took a breath and flew on his horse. The horse was ridden by him, and immediately became manic and restless, with its two front hooves raised high, neighing in its mouth, and turning back and forth restlessly.
In this situation, everyone stood back wisely, just waiting to see if Zhao Zhinan could tame the horse.
As soon as Zhao Zhinan got on the horse, he knew it was a fierce horse. He pulled the reins hard, trying to maintain his balance, just waiting for the horse to calm down. Unexpectedly, the horse became more and more manic, and the movements became bigger and bigger. After a few breaths, Zhao Zhinan fell to the ground.
Xue Ziqin watched him get up from the ground in embarrassment and asked, "Can you still bring Jiang Ye?"
Jiang also saw that Zhao Zhinan suffered a loss in order to help him, and immediately stepped forward to help him speak: "General, it's my problem, can I run with the team and help pick up the prey?"
Xue Ziqin gave Jiang Ye a meaningful look and acquiesced.
But this kid has changed a lot. At first, he was obviously not very talented and had a great temper. After a battle, he knew how to forbear, which made Xue Ziqin very applaud. Only by holding back your anger can you win with one blow. This is Xue Ziqin's style, but Jiang was able to change so quickly, which shows that this person is excellent.
That fierce horse must be ridden by someone, and it is impossible for Guo Linchong to lead another. Xue Ziqin glanced coldly at the crowd and asked, "Is there anyone who dares to ride this horse?"
No one spoke, not only no one spoke, but everyone also stepped back a few steps. Cao Zhongzheng just said this to the person next to him. He didn't pay attention to the farce just now. At this moment, when everyone retreated, he became standing in front of them. Sensing that the atmosphere was not right, he turned to look at Xue Ziqin and asked nervously, "What's wrong?"
Xue Ziqin was looking at him and said, "Come on, please start your performance."
Cao Zhong began to pretend to be stupid: "I am a farmer, how can I tame a horse, General."
"You try." Xue Ziqin said.
Everyone's eyes were on Cao Zhong, and the general said so, it is impossible not to ride. Thinking like this, Cao Zhong bravely stepped forward, pulled up the reins timidly, and jumped on the horse abruptly.
That horse was the same as before, still struggling to throw Cao Zhong down.
Jiang also stared intently at Cao Zhong's figure, and some doubts resurfaced in his heart. He stared at Cao Zhong's waist, wanting to see if the hanging ear was still there, or in other words, whether the thing with the hanging ear was still there. Xue Ziqin also looked at Cao Zhong, with a smile on his lips, wanting to see how capable this stupid big man was - if he really couldn't, he just refused with all his strength, and he might have the courage to go on the horse, I'm afraid it will take some effort.
Horse training, if you can't ride a horse, it's just like Zhao Zhinan before. If you fall to the ground, it will hurt, and nothing else. But if you are unlucky, you will be trampled to death by a horse after falling. Not uncommon. At this moment, Cao Zhong kept screaming and grabbing the reins with all his might. Xue Ziqin watched for a long time and didn't see any ability in him, he just thought he was thinking too much. But just when Xue Ziqin turned his head and wanted to rearrange with Guo Linchong, Cao Zhong exerted his strength. Xue Ziqin didn't see it, but Jiang also saw it clearly.
The horse raised its front hooves and jumped up and down. Cao Zhong appeared to be helpless, but he never fell. Suddenly, he bent down and pressed tightly against the horse's neck, holding the reins with one hand and patting the horse's neck with the other. of.
Then the fierce horse suddenly quieted down, but in a short while, the horse raised its hoofs again, and Cao Zhong fell down.
Xue Ziqin was talking to Guo Linchong, but neither of them noticed this scene. Guo Linchong listened to the order and turned around to bring a more docile horse over.
Jiang also saw clearly, that Cao Zhong clearly had spare power. He didn't know how to ride, and he didn't know whether others understood, but the moment the horse was quiet, he clearly thought it was because of Cao Zhong's actions. Hang Sui didn't see it, but the suspicion in his heart was a little more intense.
When Xue Ziqin turned around again, Cao Zhongzheng got up from the ground in embarrassment.
"General, I really can't..." He patted the ashes on his body and said with a bitter face.
Jiang did not dismantle it, but just watched silently.
Even so, Xue Ziqin no longer reluctantly, and gave them some time to get on their horses. After that, Guo Linchong brought another horse, including Xue Ziqin and Guo Linchong, a group of thirteen people, only Jiang Ye stood stupidly. But it was what he said, and he was mentally prepared to run with them.
It was almost noon now, and the sun was a little hot and dazzling.
Against the light, Jiang also stood beside Xue Ziqin's horse, ready to follow at any time.
To be honest, it didn't feel good to be watched from top to bottom, Xue Ziqin turned against the light and looked at Jiang Ye condescendingly. Jiang was also a little overwhelmed. Being looked at like this, he always felt that Xue Ziqin had something to say, but he couldn't see his expression clearly, and he didn't even know where to start.
I saw Xue Ziqin stretch out his hand to Jiang also, and said calmly, "Come up."
For a while, Jiang was also a little frightened.
Xue Ziqin said again impatiently, "Come up."
Jiang Ye then stretched out his hand, got on the horse by force, and rode behind Xue Ziqin.
"Set off!"
A group of thirteen people, led by Xue Ziqin, marched mightily towards Yanhangu.
There are several hills around Yanhangu, all of which are dense forests. During the period when the army was stationed here, Xue Ziqin often went hunting. He stutters well, so he never treats his appetite badly.
Jiang also sat behind Xue Ziqin, and only thought that Xue Ziqin's riding skills were very good, but it was not too much.
Bumps, and even a kind of pleasure. Facing the cold wind, the feeling of rushing forward is really not bad.
But after riding for a while, Jiang didn't feel comfortable anymore. I just felt that with the bumps of the horse's hooves, it began to make him uncomfortable in the crotch. Xue Ziqin, however, was like a normal person, and never slowed down.
Thinking that Jiang might feel uncomfortable, Xue Ziqin followed the wind and said loudly, "It doesn't matter if it hurts, how can anyone who fights not ride a horse, you know!"
"Yes!" Jiang also shouted back.
The horse's hoof raised a lot of dust, and Jiang also inhaled in pain, not knowing how much dust he sucked in. But he was clutching the saddle tightly with both hands, and he couldn't separate his hands to cover his nose and mouth, for fear that he would fall off the horse accidentally. There were a mighty twelve people behind them, and they were trampled to death by horses' hooves before they fell.
But it was really uncomfortable. Jiang also wanted to talk to Xue Ziqin to distract himself, but he didn't know what to say. He looked back, his eyes unconsciously fell on Cao Zhong in the crowd. In the past few days, he has paid more attention to Cao Zhong, and he has been paying attention to him from time to time.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang also said, "General, I have something to say."
Ye Mo was against the wind, and the voice was blown away a lot. Xue Ziqin couldn't hear it clearly, so he could only ask loudly, "What?"
Jiang also had to amplify his voice: "I have something to say!"
But you can't shout "I think Cao Zhong is abnormal" like this. Thinking like this, Jiang can only say again: "It's nothing!"
Xue Ziqin heard it clearly this time, and found it annoying: "Don't be a goddamn troublemaker!"
After about half an hour, everyone arrived at a small hill. Guo Linchong arranged it a little, and told everyone which area it was, and gathered here before sunset, and everyone dispersed in twos and threes and went hunting.
After entering the dense forest, Xue Ziqin's speed slowed down a lot, and Jiang also felt the pain in his crotch, so he could only find an excuse to dismount: "General, I have something to say, can I ask the general to come down and walk?"
Xue Ziqin narrowed his eyes slightly, turned to look at Jiang Ye, and said, "Then it's best for you not to talk nonsense."
"I see."
After speaking, Jiang also dismounted, and Xue Ziqin followed, leading the horse, and the two walked into the deep forest one after the other.
"Go ahead."
Jiang also looked around, and there were only two of them nearby, so he was relieved and told Xue Ziqin what he was thinking: "General, that Cao Zhong, can ride."
"Oh?"
"The general was talking to Vice-General Guo earlier. I saw Cao Zhongming tame the fierce horse, but he didn't know what tricks he used. He pretended to fall, as if to hide his riding skills... I'm afraid his riding skills are still very good. Jiang Ye's voice was very low, but his words were clear, and Xue Ziqin could hear it clearly. He replied a little fiercely: "Are you in front of me, picking something up?"
Jiang was also not afraid, and continued: "No, General. We attacked Hanzhou at night, but the defender of Hanzhou attacked Yanhangu at night. Does the general think there is a fraud here?"
"Go on."
"I suspect that some of them have tipped off the information, and then I know that the general is not in the camp, and the main general is not there. Of course, it is a good opportunity to attack."
"How did you find out?"
"It's just my guess," Jiang Ye shook his head and said, "I happened to see a twig on one of the recruits. Although I don't know what it was, it looked very valuable."
Xue Ziqin turned back suddenly and looked at Jiang Ye. Jiang was also frightened by Xue Ziqin's actions for a moment, and then saw his expression, half-smiling, very interested: "It's just a valuable item."
"I made a little inquiries. That man was born as a tenant farmer, and he was alone when he was on the mission that night." Jiang did not hesitate to tell Xue Ziqin what he was thinking, "if he hadn't robbed him The good thing is that the identity has been faked.”
At first, Jiang also planned to say it all, but seeing Xue Ziqin's reaction, he was not sure, and didn't know whether to say it or not. If he ran to tell the general that someone was suspected of being a meticulous work, I am afraid that other people would think that Jiang Jiang also had a personal hatred with him, so he came to slander. Jiang also gave a rough outline, but did not elaborate on who it was. This was also a test—if Xue Ziqin believed it, he would continue to ask; if Xue Ziqin didn’t believe it, it would be useless to say more.
But Xue Ziqin didn't respond after listening to this sentence. He looked thoughtful, but didn't say a word, just walked forward with Jiang Ye.
Jiang didn't know what Xue Ziqin was thinking, but in the current atmosphere, he was afraid that he couldn't say more, so he just followed and didn't say any more.
Suddenly, there was a noise from a bush on the side of the road, Xue Ziqin immediately stopped, slowly stretched his hand behind his back, opened his bow and shot an arrow, aiming at the bush. Jiang also didn't know how to hunt, so he didn't dare to let out his breath, for fear that his breath would startle Xue Ziqin's prey.
Xue Ziqin waited patiently for a while, and a gray-brown hare came out of the bushes, stood on both feet, looked around, and was about to run away.
At that moment, the arrow in Xue Ziqin's hand had already burst out of the air, and the hare had just jumped out a few steps when he was hit by the arrow and fell to the ground.
"The general is good at archery!" Jiang couldn't help but exclaimed.
Xue Ziqin took the bow in a hurry: "Don't pick it up yet."
Jiang also trotted over and grabbed the rabbit ears and picked them up.
Xue Ziqin did not express any opinion on what Jiang Ye said just now. He thought about it and said to Jiang Ye, "Can I teach you to ride a horse?"
"Um?"
"I said, I will teach you to ride a horse." Xue Ziqin said again patiently.
