As night fell, a small oil lamp had been lit in the tent, and the light flickered. Liu Jing sat cross-legged and looked carefully at the golden hairpin on his hand.

The girl in red cloak left a deep impression on him. On the one hand, she had a clear distinction between love and hate and eliminated all evil. Although she was reckless and did not care about consequences, she did not expect her to be much rational and calm for an eleven or twelve-year-old girl.

On the other hand, she is cruel and ruthless, and she is killed by a sword. It is hard to imagine that she is just an eleven or twelve-year-old girl.

The word Ren is engraved on the head of the golden hairpin. It is probably the name of the girl, named Ren, but she doesn't know what her surname is, and she doesn't know who she has learned her martial arts. At first glance, it's the martial arts of killing people on the battlefield. It's clean, concise, and has no extra style.

Moreover, Liu Jing saw that the Girl's Sword was made by famous artists. It was sharpened like mud and was extremely sharp. It was definitely not something that ordinary people could hold. This girl probably has a bad origin.

At this time, Zhao Yun's voice came from outside the door, with a hint of blame in his tone, "It's time to practice martial arts."

Liu Jing was really upset because of the Xingchun Bridge incident and had no mood to practice martial arts. Since Zhao Yun came to call himself, he had to get up and pick up his spear and leave the camp.

Outside the big tent, Zhao Yun rode on the horse, and blamed his laziness in his eyes. He was holding another horse beside Zhao Yun. Liu Jing stepped forward and smiled, "Do you know what happened in Wuchang City in the afternoon?"

"You mean the case of Xingchunqiao"

Zhao Yun had heard about this from the soldiers. He glanced at Liu Jing and asked in confusion: "Does that matter have anything to do with you?"

Liu Jing nodded, "It's what I did."

Zhao Yun looked at him calmly for a moment and said lightly: "No matter what you have done, I don't want to ask. I only care about one thing, teach you martial arts, and now I will teach you riding a horse."

He threw the reins of the horse to Liu Jing, "Get on the horse."

Liu Jing was both surprised and happy, and finally taught him to ride a horse. He followed Zhao Yun's appearance and slowly turned over the horse in one-sided stirrup. Fortunately, the war horse was very gentle, which made him get on the horse smoothly.

Liu Jing put his feet into the wooden rope ring and stabilized his body. Zhao Yun shook the reins, "Follow my posture, practice riding skills first, and then practice fighting immediately,"

The two of them walked slowly towards the training ground in the darkness.

............

The city of Wuchang was already in chaos, and teams of Huang Zu's personal soldiers ran on the streets, searched the public places where the crowds were gathered, and arrested a young lady in red wearing two swords. The noise and screams were heard one after another, and the chaos in Wuchang City was rippling.

Near Shuimen, there is a large private house called Shuilu Dow, which is later the inn. Compared with the official post office and Chuanshe, private house is called a private house, also known as a Nei Travel or Hostel.

The private store provides room accommodation, rice, grain and firewood, but it requires cooking by yourself, so most travelers staying in the hotel go to the tavern outside until they return until they are back in the evening.

This private store is an inn opened by Dow Business in Wuchang County. However, it is not open to the public and is only for people from Dow Business in rest. It is an internal hostel.

At this time, in a room in the backyard, the middle-aged man looked angry and patted the table to scold the girl in red cloak, "How did you promise me that you will never cause trouble. I believe you took you out for a trip, but see what more than a dozen lives you have done, how can you do it?"

Although the girl lowered her head, she looked dissatisfied. She muttered: "Brother led thousands of troops to kill people in the wild, more than a dozen people, why can't I kill them?"

"shut up"

The middle-aged man became even more angry and slapped the table hard, "Is this the same thing? If you think there are too few people, you go out now and kill people when you see them. You can kill thousands of people in one night, then you can be as famous as your brother for the ages. Why don't you go?"

When did the girl get such rebuke? She bit her lip, her eyes turned red, and she said in a trembling voice: "How could I just... kill innocent people indiscriminately? The dozen people I killed today... are all bullying good people, evil people. The master and brother have both said that if they are all evil, if they are let go, they will hurt more good people. I... I did nothing wrong."

The middle-aged man sighed in his heart, he didn't know what to say, the girl regarded her elder brother as a god, and took her elder brother as a model in every move, as well as her master, the old nun in Biyun Temple who was famous for his ruthlessness, taught by example.

Well, when I went back to tell her mother that I was powerless.

After a while, he said helplessly: "Now I won't tell you the right or wrong thing. Now we are in the enemy's situation, but you are causing trouble. If you brother and sister are caught by the government, how can I explain to your mother and brother?"

The accusation girl was acceptable, and she whispered: "Uncle, I know I'm wrong, and I will never be reckless again."

At this time, a low voice came from outside the house, "Mr. Wu, there is news."

"Please come in"

The door opened and a young man in his thirties walked into the door. His name was Tao Zheng, the second son of Tao Sheng, the head of the Tao family. This time he accompanied them specifically.

The middle-aged man said to the girl: "Go and learn from your fourth brother. He closed the door and practiced martial arts without leaving home. It's not like you, just go out and cause trouble."

The girl forgot the sadness just now and became naughty again. She stuck out her tongue and ran away on tiptoe. The middle-aged man looked at her mischievous appearance and shook his head helplessly. After all, she was still a child.

Tao Zheng closed the door and sat down and said, "Let's talk about Xingchunqiao first. Miss Ren is lucky. This time she actually involved the generals under Liu Bei..."

Before he could finish his words, a girl's surprised voice came from outside the door, "Is it that young general?"

Tao Zheng looked back in shock. The girl was actually hiding outside the door and eavesdropping. The middle-aged man's face sank and shouted: "Aren, don't eavesdrop, go quickly."

The girl muttered a few words outside the door, pouted, and left with an unhappy look on her face.

Tao Zheng heard her footsteps and continued: "The city is already in chaos, but because it involves Liu Bei's generals, the army and the government dare not investigate in detail."

The middle-aged man frowned and asked again: "What is the background of the person who was killed?"

"The person who was killed was Huang Yi, the third son of the Huang family, and the nephew of Huang Zu. Things are a bit big."

The middle-aged man was heartbroken. Huang Zu's nephew was nothing in his eyes. The key was Jingzhou, not Jiangdong. He pondered for a while and asked again: "Who is that general under Liu Bei?"

Tao Zheng shook his head, "I don't know, I only know that this person is quite careful. He handled the funeral for Miss Ren, and took the murder on himself. The onlookers said he was a young general."

The middle-aged man pondered for a moment and said to himself, "Is it Guan Ping, the son of Guan Yunchang?"

"I don't know this, maybe I'm an unknown young player."

The middle-aged man nodded and stopped asking about this matter. At this time, Tao Zheng said again: "There is also the matter about Mr. Su. Unfortunately, Mr. Su is not in Wuchang and seems to have gone to Jiangling."

The Mr. Su they mentioned was Su Zhen, the uncle of Huang Zu's deputy general Su Fei, and was also a big businessman. He had a deep friendship with the Tao family. The middle-aged man came to Wuchang this time to meet Su Fei through this Mr. Su, but he was not here.

The middle-aged man showed disappointment on his face. He traveled all the way, but Su Zhen was not in Wuchang, which made his plan fail.

In this rebellion of Zhang Wu and Chen Sun, Su Zhen also played an unlucky role. He was the bridge between Zhang Wu and Chen Sun and the Eastern Wu.

The middle-aged man frowned, "Didn't this person have a good relationship with Zhang Wu? Why did he run away at this critical moment?"

Tao Zheng smiled bitterly, "Maybe he felt that the situation was not good, and he was afraid of being implicated by Zhang Wu and Chen Sun's rebellion. I heard from the people in his mansion that he left in a hurry this morning, which should be related to the arrival of Liu Bei's army."

"This is a bit troublesome." The middle-aged man paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back.

Tao Zheng said anxiously again: "Starting from this evening, the city gate has strengthened its search and guard. Tonight it will only search the hostel and tavern, but tomorrow it will be searched throughout the city. I suggest we leave the city immediately and go back to Chaisang to avoid the limelight."

The middle-aged man nodded, and for safety reasons, that was the only way.

...........

On the school ground, Liu Jing was practicing equestrian according to Zhao Yun's instructions. The horse he was riding was an old horse that was nearly thirty years old. Although he was still strong on the outside, the spirit of the war horse had faded and seemed to be listless. Even laymen like Liu Jing could see its aging.

Zhao Yun felt a little apologized. He really had no extra horse, so he had to use this old horse to teach Liu Jing. However, the old horse was gentle and good at knowing instructions, which was conducive to practicing equestrianism.

This is also true. Jingxiang is a water town in the south. He is used to taking boats when going out. Unlike the north, he mainly relies on animal power, so there are indeed not many horses.

Liu Jing was a person who was curious about new things in his previous life. He learned to ride a bicycle without a teacher in the second grade of elementary school, but he still maintained this strong desire for knowledge in this life.

He was extremely smart. He learned to ride a horse in just one hour. He rode very well and could run a short distance. Zhao Yun was no longer surprised by his talent. If Liu Jing proposed to go out to run at this time, he would not be surprised. He, the little brother, had nothing that he dared not do.

Liu Jing was very interested in riding a horse. He had stirrups in the late Han Dynasty, but they were only one-sided stirrups, which were mainly used for horses. After riding a horse, there was also a foot cover, a soft cover wrapped with a wooden stick with cloth to put feet.

In addition, there are also double-protected saddles with two lower ends in the middle, which can prevent people from sliding down from the horse's back. This is the prototype of the Takahashi saddle later.

In fact, as early as the Western Han Dynasty, horse harnesses suitable for marching and fighting appeared, including saddles and foot covers. Only when the Huns came from the Huns did the Han Dynasty cavalry appear on a large scale.

In the Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, high bridge saddles and double stirrups began to become popular, and heavy armored cavalry appeared.

The Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty were a critical period for the evolution of horse harnesses, connecting the past and the future. Although it was not fully mature, it was already practical, so Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry, cavalry and other cavalry services appeared one after another.

Liu Jing certainly knew the advantages of Gaoqiao saddle and stirrup, and even horseshoes that appeared in the Song Dynasty. At this time, horseshoes were wrapped in thick animal skins.

But Liu Jing knew in his heart that some things could not be done even if they knew them. Once they were done, the real beneficiary would be Cao Cao from the north, not them.

While practicing, a fire suddenly lit up from the camp, lit countless torches, and a loud call from the officer was heard vaguely hearing the loud orders of the officer, "All the soldiers are all."
