Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Due to Kira Yoshitoki and Ogiku's unremitting efforts, the cold war between the two sides seems to be improving. Nagao Torahime's attitude towards him has slightly improved. At least they won't hide away from each other all the way. They usually roll their eyes at each other when they meet in the building.  What has become a routine? According to Aju, this is a good start. In his opinion, this start is not that good.  Of course, these cannot affect Kira Yoshitoki's daily training. He unremittingly learns his Teutonic swordsmanship and spearmanship from the German Hans every day. He was tortured by this guy with extremely abnormal physical strength and could not even hold chopsticks before he was allowed to do so.  After going back to rest, in his words, Kira Yoshishi's performance was just so-so. Of course, the best performance in his mouth was this evaluation, and more like Yamaoka Tokinaga could only get shit-like evaluations.  That afternoon, Yoshiki Kira was tortured half-dead by the Germans before he was released. Just when he was walking in the courtyard, he heard someone talking to him: "Hey! Come here!" "Huh?" Turning around, Nagao saw  Hu Ji waved at him and said: "I'm calling you, what are you looking at! Come here." "Oh." Kiragi was confused for a moment, shook his head but walked over as ordered, "What's the matter? I mean.  Is there anything you need my help with?" Just as he was about to move over, Long-tailed Tiger Princess covered her mouth in disgust: "Oh, what does that smell like on you? Go wash it off and come back!"  It seemed that Aju was reminding her from behind, and the long-tailed tiger girl could only curl her lips and say helplessly: "It's better to come over, we just talked about you." Kiragi suddenly regained his energy, and secretly thought that Aju is very powerful.  Follow the long-tailed tiger girl all the way into the building.  A group of maids were gathering together in twos and threes to chat.  They have become accustomed to Kira Yoshi's easy-going temperament, and Aju is always off-the-cuff and shouldering all the blame for the little maids, which makes their pressure very light and they can always get together and play every day.  The long-tailed tiger princess sat in the corridor neatly, like a demure lady. Her long black hair was also combed into a long ponytail, and she looked like a heroic female knight. She sat down one after another while looking at Kira Yoshi.  She then asked: "Sister Aju told a lot of stories about Kyoto, including some of your stories. Are they all true?" Kira Yoshi said without thinking, "Of course it is true! She said it all  "What?" "Sister Aju said that you were very good at fighting in Kyoto, and that Miyoshi Chikuzen Mamoru seemed to be very powerful, but sister Aju couldn't tell clearly without seeing it, so I wanted to ask you yourself.  " "Sister Torahime is lying! Just now, Chiyome clearly said Wuwu!" Before the idiot Loli finished her protest, she was covered by Nagao Torahime, and the two of them whispered together.  After saying this, Mochizuki Chiyo shut her mouth obediently, while Aku smiled encouragingly at Kiragi.  It seems to be saying, Your Highness, come on.  "Is this a test? Then I'll give it a try!" Kira Yoshichi thought to himself, but he said in a daze: "Oh. You mean this! Then let me tell you, I am an astronomical expert in eighteen years.  When I arrived in Kyoto, the Grand Gosho died of illness in April of the 19th year. I was ordered to go out to Takashima County that month, and then" This is a rough account of the Kira family's itinerary in Kyoto for more than three years. Of course, some sensitive things were not mentioned. For the girl  The wars he was most interested in were narrated. According to him, the main participant, it was certainly not as one-sided as Mochizuki Chiyome saw. Torahime was quickly attracted by the stories he told.  Unknowingly, the sky had darkened. After talking for nearly two hours, not only was my mouth dry, but my stomach was also thundering. Kira Yoshi said with a grimace, "How about we continue tomorrow?"  "Wait a minute, I have another question to ask!" Long-tailed Tiger Princess raised her hand and asked curiously: "What happened to the last Miyoshi repair doctor? Did he invade Kyoto again?" "In the end, I came to Yue  It¡¯s over, so I don¡¯t know if Dr. Miyoshi has invaded Kyoto again.¡± Kira Yoshiki said with a bitter smile, ¡°I¡¯ve been practicing spear skills for a day, and I¡¯m very hungry now. Do you have any cakes or something to fill my stomach?¡±  "Oops! I just listened to His Highness telling a story and forgot about it. A-Ju is going to get the cakes right now!" A-Ju stood up in a hurry and ran back to get the cakes. The little follower Mochizuki Chiyoko also ran over. Needless to say, she must have wanted  Go get something to eat.  Nagao Torahime praised: "I can't tell you are really powerful! And your retainers are also very powerful!" "Thank you for the compliment!" "But our Echigo samurai are not bad either, and I can also shoot.  "Have you seen it last time?" At this point, she also realized what she had said wrongly, and a blush flashed on her white cheeks, which stunned Kira Yoshiki, who looked so lustful and charming.  With such a look, Long-tailed Tiger Princess scolded shyly and angrily: "What are you looking at! If you look at me like that again, I'm going to beat you up!"  Ji Liangyi was taken aback and quickly apologized: "I was wrong! I will never dare to do that kind of thing again! You are an adult and don't care about the villain's fault. Please spare me once!" "Giggle! You  This person is so funny!" Long Taihu Ji covered her mouth and snickered. The group of maids had already ducked away immediately, giving the two people some time to interact with each other.  The two of them chatted until the end of the moon. No one noticed where the others had gone to hide. They started to communicate with each other. Kira Yoshitoki told her many stories about his childhood in Mikawa.  Interesting things about Japan, such as fishing in the Yahagi River, struggling with archery, and forgetting to bring salt to the first hawk hunting picnic, resulting in a pile of super unpalatable barbecue that seemed to be undercooked, which made him upset for several days.  Nagao Torahime also told him that she had lived with her mother at her uncle's house since she was a child, and she had been particularly fond of cherry blossoms since she was a child. The cherry blossoms in Kasugayama Castle were planted by his father, and she was the one who planted them at his uncle's house and in Tochio Castle where his brother was.  The mother and herself planted it separately. If there is a chance, I will take Yoshitoki Kira there to see it.  "I heard that there is a cherry blossom forest along the Shinano River, and a kind of late cherry blossoms is in full bloom. I have never been there! I don't know if it has faded now!" "Are there really such late cherry blossoms?" "There should be! Really?  I really want to take a look! Do you want to go with me? " "Well" Kiragi hesitated for a moment, feeling that it seemed inappropriate now, so he persuaded: "It was just a few days after the earthquake.  Why don't we wait?" "Forget it! I know you're not sincere." Nagao Huji curled her lips and ignored him.  Suddenly there was a gurgling sound.  The two of them were stunned at the same time, and then realized that the sky was completely dark. Only then did Long-tailed Tiger Princess realize that the surroundings were brightly lit, and she didn't know who turned on the lights. Thinking of the previous stiff relationship between the two, Long-tailed Tiger Princess began to regret it again.  He was so reckless that he stood up in a hurry and ran away leaving Kiragi behind.  ??In the exclusive Kira family's curved wheel, a group of Kira family warriors gathered together to receive special training.  Because flashy things like knight's lances were gradually phased out and instead used Japan's unique large-body lance training, Hans' guidance on lancery mainly focused on the use of lancery in cavalry battles.  This kind of training is destined to only be carried out among samurai who have basic riding skills. In addition to the 700 professional cavalry in the Kira Army, there are more than 300 other semi-professional riding samurai, all of whom come from the less professional level.  In Omi Bizhong, the Mikawa samurai have distinguished the infantry and cavalry very well, and there will never be a scene where a mounted samurai leads a dozen ashigaru charges.  In these more than a thousand rides, the 700 riders belonging to Mikawa Bei have the highest quality, but even in these 700 rides, there are no more than 20 riders who can really make Hans feel "so-so".  Most of them are at the "shit" level, in order to change this group of "shit" cavalry.  He would teach them from the basics, including teaching them how to raise horses in a standardized manner, and of course, more importantly, how to be a true knight.  "You have to know that knights are not as simple as you think. You are just a group of ordinary cavalry holding the reins and hacking randomly. You are still far from the real elite cavalry. Knights are even further out of reach. Your foundation is too poor.  "It's like a piece of shit!" The most favorite word of this serious and rigid Teutonic knight is shit. No matter how unacceptable they are, this title has been with them for several months, and may continue to be for a long time in the future.  for a long time.  "What the cavalry needs most is basic training, but you don't know what basic training is. It's really" Hans wanted to continue to express his dissatisfaction, but when he saw Kiragi winking at him, it was enough.  He continued: "In short, it is necessary to conduct comprehensive training or basic training through certain events like infantry. Such as wrestling, boxing and dodging, fast movement with heavy loads, basic mastery of weapons used in infantry combat, and horseback balance  Sexual mastery, these training items have a long history. The cavalry can enhance their physical strength, endurance, agility and proficiency in using weapons through these trainings. That¡¯s why I ask you to do basic training over and over again. The more solid the foundation, the better you will be.  The higher the chance of surviving on the battlefield. Trying to practice horsemanship without a foundation will only result in a piece of shit Sorry, I was rude again." Hans picked up a handkerchief and wiped the spit from the corner of his mouth.  Looking at the more than a thousand people standing opposite and listening to the instruction, he nodded with satisfaction and continued: "If you want to use a horse, you must first tame it. Although horses are humane, they are animals after all. If you want to use them, you must first train them."  It better accepts the knight's intention and makes the horse's power be consumed effectively. It should focus on people and try to communicate the relationship between people and horses, so that the people and horses can become integrated. Of course, this is not easy, and it requires careful and patient treatment of the horses.  The horse trainer must maintain a close and friendly relationship with the war horse. Even if you encounter a fierce horse, you must always comfort it.??, provide it with clean drinking water and clean fodder, and wash the body of the war horse frequently to relieve its fear and increase the horse's dependence on the cavalry.  During this period, you need to be patient enough to approach it little by little. During the horse training period, you must not use a riding crop to threaten or beat it. War horses are very smart and very vengeful animals. I think what you are doing is very bad. This requires  Make corrections in time. For knights, war horses are the most precious companions and valuable wealth. If you cannot grasp this wealth, then you will only be killed by the enemy on the battlefield!  " Hans said it very simply, including repeated and patient training during the horse training process, and gradually increasing the difficulty of training the war horse, such as pulling one side of the slow rope, which will cause unbearable pain to the horse's haunches, bits, gums, and corners of the mouth.  To control the pressure, force the horse to lie down. After lying down, immediately relax the reins and relieve the pressure of the mouth and gums by the bit. At the same time, praise or reward the horse, including food rewards. In addition, the basic quality of the cavalry is improved.  For higher requirements, warriors are trained to get on and off the horse and ride firmly on the horse in various movements. The best knights get on the horse and jump up without stepping on the stirrups.  To change a horse to another horse, you only need to jump in the air to complete the change of mounts, which places higher requirements on riding skills. You must know that once the war horse starts to move or run wildly, especially when climbing up and downhill, it will be difficult to climb up and down hills.  Crossing rivers and climbing over dangerous obstacles, facing the enemy and facing chaos on the battlefield, the most outstanding knight is the one who can still sit firmly on his mount and remain motionless. Only when the knight's mentality is stable can the horse run with peace of mind. The two give each other confidence.  For this reason, it is necessary to strengthen the balance training on horseback. There is no shortcut in this. It all depends on hard work and hard work. A cavalry without a balance training foundation can easily get injured due to nervousness before a battle.  Factors, and falling off the horse in the middle of the assault, once the horse falls down, it is basically either death or serious injury, and the hard-trained cavalry will be scrapped. It is not uncommon for the cavalry to hesitate and fall off the horse due to improper balance when the horse is advancing rapidly. There are only a few returns in the battle.  , because the cavalry could not withstand the fierce impact and were knocked off the horse. All these phenomena were due to the cavalry's personal riding skills and they died due to mistakes in the battle. "So don't underestimate wrestling, it is to train you.  Balance control ability, boxing is to train your balance control in high-speed dodge, and weight-bearing training are all to improve your continuous combat ability when carrying armor and weapons. From now on, you will do basic training in the morning, horse training in the afternoon, and dinner  Finally, everyone should summarize their own training experience and communicate with each other.  " Hans finished the course and ordered them to conduct basic training respectively. He turned around and walked to Kira Yoshiki and said to him in broken English: "The quality of these cavalry is good. Except for the three hundred cavalry, the others are a bit inferior.  Anyone can become an excellent cavalry, but I hope you will provide more exquisite food supplies, because knights and their mounts need the best supplies.  " "I understand this, is it beef, mutton or ham?  There are also milk, fresh vegetables, bread, fish, chicken, duck, cheese, and wine. The best food for war horses is alfalfa and bean cakes, mixed with a lot of refined salt" Kira Yoshihi shrugged helplessly.  , asked Matsui Yuxian who was following him: "Okay, how much is the estimated monthly expenditure?  " "One thousand cavalry requires about two thousand Yongle coins.  " Matsui Yuxian added: "Every month.  " "Every month?  Two thousand strings?  Oh my gosh, this is a gold-eating beast!  How many things can be done with two thousand Guan Yongle money?  I can build myself a beautiful city, I can build many new towns and have a prosperous economy, I can okay!  Don't look at me like that, I'm willing to pay for it.  Kira Yoshitoki finally decided to compromise. After a little calculation, he told Matsui Yuxian: "The cost must be reduced as much as possible. You can raise pigs, cattle and sheep by yourself, but you must keep confidentiality. In addition, you can grow vegetables by yourself, but bread cannot  Question, chickens and ducks can also be raised, fish are not worth a few dollars, cheese is a dairy product, wine is not difficult, alfalfa is also available, and I am making bean cakes, right?  "    "Yes!  The breeding of livestock and above is in progress. The pig breeds may have to wait a few months and must be purchased from Mingguo people in Hirado Port, Kyushu. Everything else is fine. It is expected that the cost can be reduced by half within three months at the earliest.  , the cost can be reduced to 500 Yongle coins within a year.  " "Very good, I'll leave it to you.  "Sent Matsui Yukan away, he still has to do basic training with this group of cavalry, because Hans told him that marksmanship needs to be demonstrated on horseback, and infantry combat will never be able to exert its maximum power. He chose to believe what the Germans said.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
