back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 391 The First Khitan Warrior
On Weidian, nearly [-] imperial tent riders were training in close combat.The Liao Kingdom is not as docile as the Dashun imperial army training, with wooden knives and guns, and cloth strips dipped in flour.

The training of Yuzhang's personal cavalry has always been done with real swords and guns.If someone is unlucky and is wounded by a knife or gun, or even killed by mistake, it is because he is not good at learning and cannot blame others.The imperial tent cavalry trained in this way have always been famous for their fierceness, tyranny, bravery and good fighting skills.The name of Iron Buddha resounds throughout Dashun.Every time they heard the name of Iron Buddha, the Dashun frontier soldiers would tremble, and could hardly hold the weapons in their hands tightly.There is no way, facing such an Iron Buddha with full armor and even horses wearing vests, charging at you at an extremely fast speed, everyone would be frightened.Such a scene was like a nightmare.

It is precisely because they are armed to the teeth that no matter how powerful the enemy is, even if they know that they will die, both the man and the horse will never back down. They have a strong desire to fight, just like killing machines. Until the enemy is down, they will keep killing!
In fact, the Khitan people also learned from the Central Plains to equip heavy cavalry.The previous dynasty was able to occupy the world for 400 years, all thanks to the invincible heavy armored cavalry and the flame army.As its name suggests, it is a flame wherever it goes.The prestige gained by killing with blood and fire shakes the world.The Khitan people felt the great reputation of this cavalry, gathered the warriors of the entire Khitan tribe, and spent a lot of refined iron to build this heavy armored cavalry - the imperial tent cavalry.It is also true that the royal tent cavalry has repeatedly made outstanding achievements and saved the Khitan royal family from danger many times.

Even in the official history, the Khitan people just learned from the Li Tang Dynasty, the famous Tang Taizong Li Shimin's Xuanjia Army, and founded the Royal Tents.Although time and space are different, and history has turned a corner, many things follow the law of development and are surprisingly similar to official history.

In fact, the nomadic people borrowed from the civilization of the farming people, so why didn't the farming people learn from the civilization of the nomadic people?No civilization can exist independently from the forest of nations in the world.Breaking away from the forest of nations in the world means either perishing or lingering.

Even if the Khitan people are more xenophobic, they are still learning from their advanced civilization.Take the two generals on the Weidian who are being put on the right side. The spears they hold in their hands are not borrowed from the Han people?The blades of their spears are all three-edged spearheads, shaped like three-edged pointed arrowheads, with holes in the lower part of the blades and raised ribs around the neck.

Looking at the imperial tent cavalry on Weidian, most of the weapons they use are very similar to similar weapons in the Central Plains.Among them, swords and spears basically inherited the shape of the Han Dynasty, while the shapes of knives and arrowheads are basically very similar to similar utensils in Dashun.The upper echelons of the Liao State continued to arm their army with advanced weapons suitable for their own army's combat characteristics in the past dynasties of the Central Plains, so that the army's weapons and equipment were always in good condition, which was the material basis for the Khitan people to maintain their strong combat effectiveness.

And Dashun also learned the art of riding and shooting from the Khitan people, but he was not that proficient.The Han nationality and the Khitan have been learning from each other, until Lu Chengqi appeared and "invented" the rifle and artillery, which led Dashun to embark on a path of independent exploration.

It's just that the Hongxiang rifle didn't shine in the Youzhou battle because of production problems.So now it is still the world of cold weapons, or the world of swords, guns and arrows, at least in the eyes of the Khitan people.

On Weidian, two cavalry dressed in general's armor, under the witness of nearly [-] imperial tent cavalry, are about to stage a king-to-king drama.

Only the general who was too big said in Khitan language: "Xiao Feng, I know that you are recognized as the number one warrior of Khitan. But you have carried this title for ten years. I, Xiao Yuanlan, think that martial arts are not good enough. I lost to you, and I challenge you today. If I win, the title of number one Khitan warrior will belong to me, Xiao Yuan!"

He smiled lightly at Xiao Feng, and said: "When I, Xiao Feng, was 20 years old, I also defeated the coach Xiao Dingxu of our imperial cavalry, and won the title of the number one warrior of Khitan. If you have the ability , take this title from me!"

This is a rule passed down from generation to generation by the Khitan people. As the number one warrior of Khitan, he must accept challenges from the warriors of the clan at any time.The winner is the number one Khitan warrior, and the loser must take the initiative to give up his title.It is precisely because of this martial ethos that the Khitans are able to maintain their martial prowess.

How powerful is Xiao Dingxu, the head coach of Yuzhang's personal cavalry, how could Xiao Yuanlan not know?Because Xiao Dingxu was his father, Xiao Yuanlan secretly competed with Xiao Feng to avenge Yixue's father's defeat, constantly honing his martial arts.When he thought he could challenge Xiao Feng, he raised the challenge at this time.

The usual training of the royal cavalry is very boring, even very bloody, but seeing someone challenge the number one Khitan warrior, they are all excited.Consciously surround them into a big circle and start watching.

Hearing Xiao Feng's words, Xiao Yuanlan was young and energetic, but he was not sure, so he galloped over on his horse and stabbed with his spear.

Under the prestigious reputation there are no men without merit, Xiao Feng did not gallop his horse, but reined in his horse and stopped in place, waiting for Xiao Yuanlan's attack.Xiao Yuanlan's long spear was about to stab Xiao Feng, but Xiao Feng actually came later, and with a sweep of his spear, Xiao Yuanlan's long spear deviated from the expected trajectory.

Xiao Yuanlan only felt a shock from the tiger's mouth, and the spear almost flew out of his hand.He hurriedly clenched the spear tightly, and at this moment the two horses passed by, and the spear swept over.I saw Xiao Feng suddenly left the stirrup with one foot, hid in the horse's belly, and dodged away.

Xiao Yuanlan knew that the opportunity must not be missed, he quickly reined in the horse, turned the horse's head, when he wanted to attack from behind, but saw that Xiao Feng had adjusted the horse's head and was still facing him.Xiao Yuanlan turned his back to Xiao Feng earlier, he didn't know how he turned the horse's head.Before he had time to think about it, he galloped forward again and shot again.

But at this moment Xiao Feng has calmed down, he got up his mount and ran towards Xiao Yuanlan.When the two horses approached, Xiao Feng clamped his legs, the horse seemed to know what Xiao Feng was thinking, and it sped up suddenly.In this way, Xiao Yuanlan was caught off guard immediately, and wanted to turn the spear to protect himself first.But before he had time to take precautions, he was picked up by Xiao Feng with a spear, Xiao Yuanlan only felt that the long spear he held in both hands was hit by a powerful attack.The tiger's jaws of the left and right hands trembled at the same time, and he said in his heart: "Oops!"

As soon as he thought about it, Xiao Feng lifted his spear and saw a strong arm suddenly appearing in front of his eyes, grabbing his clothes in an instant, and the next moment his legs had already left the stirrup, The whole heavy body was lifted high in the air by Xiao Feng, unable to struggle.
