Riding and shooting is a very deep technique. After all, it is too difficult to shoot a target with a bow and arrow on a horse running at high speed. Because the horses jolt up and down during the running process. The rider will also bump up and down. In this state, how hard it is to hit the target! Do not think of proficiency without years of hard work.
Of course, the Chief Instructor of the Cavalry, Putinski, did not expect the black young apprentices to master the high-strength skills of riding and shooting. His plan was to first let these teenagers learn archery and horseback riding. Then, first learn to stop the horse before aiming at the shooting target.
This requirement is relatively simple. As long as the archery level reaches a certain level, it can be deployed. After all, shooting arrows on a stationary horseback is not very different from step shooting. This is much easier to master than riding a shot.
However, even stopping horses and archery is very far away for those black teenagers. At present, they need to practice 10m step shooting and the simplest riding. To this end, Putinski and others specially selected some of the most tame mares to allow those teenagers to practice basic riding.
While teaching those black teenagers the basics of archery, the 60-grandfather archers team will also be sent by Eschwein to go hunting. For example, shooting some antelopes and bison.
For bison, Eschwein also made extremely important arrangements-he ordered Putinski and others to try to catch some cows and calves as much as possible.
The specific approach is to dig a batch of traps in advance. Then, the Cavalry were provoked by thousands. The guarding bulls of the African bison herd (mainly African buffalo) must have come out to fight. At this time, the Mao Gongsongs of the Cavalry Corps first shot those aggressive bulls.
Then, the herd of the bulls who lost their powerful fighting ability will definitely run away in chaos. At this time, the Mao patriarchs of the Cavalry Troops will drive them towards the direction of digging the trap. After that, there will definitely be a group of African buffaloes in the pit.
The next step is to catch cattle. The African buffalo is a very fierce animal, but it is not the old yellow cattle that ordinary people imagine to be honest. Therefore, in the process of catching cows, the Cavalry need to shoot and kill part of the cattle that are fiercely resisting. Then, only keep some tame cows and calves.
Of course, this process of catching cattle requires the local old black shot. Because those old blacks have good physical fitness and great strength. Moreover, in the process of holding down the African bison, there may be casualties, such as something hit by the horn. Those grandfathers who are good at riding and shooting are treasures, but they can't let them suffer casualties. Therefore, this dangerous work of holding bison and binding is naturally handed over to the strong adult black. As for casualties, they don't care. After all, deaths and injuries are commonplace among people who mix in the African savannah. If you accidentally encounter a violent beast, you will die.
After these bison are tied up, they will naturally wear copper nose rings and then be further domesticated. And this job is naturally handed over to the local old black.
Marin helps local blacks, but not gangsters. For example, to teach them to ride and shoot, and even buy Pembroke horses, is to be able to buy domesticated African buffalo from the local. After all, Malin ’s tropical plantations in Cuba require a large number of cattle that adapt to the tropical climate.
In fact, during this era, many local indigenous tribes have domesticated and scaled African buffalo along the Senegal River in northern Senegal and the Gambia River in central and southern China. Of course, what they call breeding is stocking. Because cows don't need to wait carefully, just go out to eat grass and drink water.
It's just that there aren't any cattle-raising tribes near Marin's starting landing point. And Eschwein is also trying his best to help local blacks learn to raise cattle. Because it is needed by the tropical colony of Marin.
...
The words were divided into two parts. When Eschwein in the south was forming a bow cavalry and teaching the locals to shoot, in the far north of Scotland, the Fourth Army of Sakara also began to wade and land near Edinburgh.
This small fishing village called Seton is a landing point that the spy of the North Sea Chamber of Commerce has long chosen. In order to prepare for the landing army, the North Sea Chamber of Commerce has sent a spy who understands Scottish Gaelic, bought a large area of land in Seton, and built several long bridge piers to facilitate the docking of ships.
On a night in early August, the stars were rare. The fishermen in the small fishing village have long fallen asleep. After all, there were no TVs or even electric lights in this era. As for candles, poor fishermen cannot afford them. Therefore, it is a habit for people to fall asleep after dark.
But on the wharf of this fishing village, the newly-built big rich man Hatton newly built the long bridge wharf, but a strange campfire was lit ...
why? Because this Hatton rich man needs to navigate his companions at sea ...
In the expectant eyes of Hatton and several men, in the middle of the night, several medium-sized boats appeared on the sea near the small fishing village of Seton, slowly approaching the direction of the fishing village of Seton.
At sea ~ www.novelhall.com ~ The people on board saw the campfire from a long distance ...
"It's right there, it seems that Hatton's kid is ready. Brothers, prepare to dock at the shore to stop the boat, and then control the fishing village's road to the outside world!"
"Understood, boss!"
...
After some time, several medium-sized ships finally managed to dock at several long bridge docks. Then, from several ships, more than three hundred armed soldiers came down ...
Obviously, these soldiers are soldiers of the Fourth Army of Saqqara. They are the vanguard of the Fourth Army's landing, and their task is to control this small fishing village and not let the news leak. After all, if it is attacked at the beginning of the landing, it is easy to cause large casualties.
The more than three hundred fully armed soldiers did not pause after landing, and directly, silently under the leadership of Hatton's men, controlled the three roads leading out of the fishing village. Moreover, several horses were also brought, scouted by scouts and swayed outside the village. Once it is found that someone ran away, it will chase mercilessly ...
When the villagers woke up the next morning, they found that the inside and outside of the small fishing village were soldiers of unknown origin. Under the persecution of the soldiers' swords and spears, the terrified fishermen had to retract their houses, closing the door and trembling.
Fortunately, the soldiers of the Fourth Legion were strict in discipline and did nothing to blame. Their task is to block the village and prevent people from going in and out.
After dawn, more than one hundred "big ships" of more than 200 tons suddenly appeared on the sea near the small fishing village of Seton, and slowly approached the direction of the fishing village.
Then, a dozen ships docked towards the dock. And more boats are leaning towards the beach east of the small fishing village of Seton ... ()
