It cannot be said that everyone in the guard battalion is a top player, but it is not a problem for one person to beat Li Xin seven or eight times.

This self-proclaimed inner guard Wang Mo is one of the two school lieutenants of the Jinwei Battalion. He is known as "Black Dog".

This time, the emperor sent five people out of the guard camp with less than [-] people, including Wang Mo, one of the two captains, which shows how much the emperor attaches importance to Li Xin.

After hearing the big man's self-introduction, Li Xin touched his nose in embarrassment.

He was born in Habayashi Guard, and had conflicts with Nei Wei.

Not long ago, he was yelling at the inner guard at Yong'anmen for being eunuchs...

Colonel Li coughed and clasped his fists at the big man to return the salute: "I'm going to southern Xinjiang, please take care of me, Brother Wang."

He knew in his heart that these people were sent by the emperor to protect him, so he couldn't offend them, and he had to say what he had to say. After all, good words didn't cost money, and no matter what they said, they wouldn't suffer.

A smile appeared on Wang Mo's face: "Lieutenant Li, you are welcome. We both belong to the emperor's imperial army, so we should take care of each other."

Li Xin got to know all five of them for a while, then he coughed again and said to Wang Mo: "Brother Wang, I have something to trouble you for."

Wang Mo bowed his head and said, "Lieutenant Li, please tell me."

Although he had a higher official position than Li Xin, he was ordered by the emperor to respect some of Li Xin's opinions along the way.

Li Xin pointed to the big black horse sent by Princess Qinghe not far away, and touched his nose again in embarrassment.

"Well... Can Big Brother Wang teach me how to ride a horse?"

…………

Chapter 114 Shadows in the Moonlight

Li Xin thought he couldn't ride a horse, so he would be laughed at by these inner guards, but in fact he didn't. Wang Mo and others didn't even show any surprise, and started to teach Li Xin how to ride a horse.

In fact, not all ancient people knew how to ride horses. Horses are very expensive in any era. Not to mention that ordinary people can’t afford them, even well-off families may not be able to afford them. Even many people in the two guards don’t have Opportunity to ride horses.

However, as the imperial guards of the emperor, Wang Mo and others can ride horses, and all of them are professional masters. This tall captain first helped Li Xin onto the big black horse, and then handed over the reins .

The big black horse is not very docile, even Princess Qinghe, who often rides a horse, can't control him a little bit. At this time, Li Xin sat on it and began to get restless.

Wang Mo stretched out his hand and patted the big black horse as tall as a man, and couldn't help admiring it.

"Good horse!"

Horses in this era have roughly the same status as cars in later generations. A good horse is no different from supercars in later generations, and even more eye-catching.

The horse that the Ninth Princess brought over was one of the most beloved horses of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei. It had the blood of a Dawan horse.

It has a name called dark cloud.

Good horses tend to have bad tempers, because horses with a mild temper can't run fast.

Under the guidance of Wang Mo and others, it took Li Xin half an hour to manage the big black horse. However, when sitting on the horse, it was still a little wobbly and not very skillful.

Pingnanhou Li Shen and the generals of Pingnanhoufu were naturally impatient to wait for Li Xin to learn how to ride a horse. In fact, when they saw Li Xin start training horses, they all showed sneers and headed southwest all the way.

When Li Xin learned how to ride a horse, he realized that Li Shen and his more than 100 generals had long since disappeared.

Seeing that Li Xin had almost mastered it, Wang Mo got on his horse and said in a deep voice, "Lieutenant Li, don't panic. I already asked a brother to follow Lord Li. He will mark the road, so let's follow."

Only then did Li Xin realize that there were only four of the original five inner guards left.

Li Xin barely sat up straight on the horse, cupped his fists at Wang Mo and said, "Brother Wang has been dragged down."

Wang Mo shook his head slightly: "When Wang first joined the imperial guards, he didn't know equestrian skills. He had to suffer a lot in order to learn how to ride a horse. Captain Li was able to learn how to ride a horse in such a short period of time, which is already very remarkable. .”

When he said this, he glanced at the southwest direction, and said in a deep voice: "Master Li is surrounded by equestrians, and he probably has run a short distance at this time, let's follow quickly, don't get lost gone."

Li Xin nodded slightly.

The purpose of his trip to southern Xinjiang is very complicated. The general of the Zhu Kingdom must not want him to follow him. If he can't keep up with the team and gets lost, Li Shen will never wait for him.

As for the imperial decree of the emperor, it can be revealed in one sentence.

The remnants of southern Xinjiang are in chaos, and the military situation is urgent. Master Ben is in a hurry and has no time to wait for a young man who is not good at equestrianism.

With just this one sentence, Li Xin didn't even have a chance to retaliate.

At that moment, Wang Mo took the lead and led the team, and the other three people guarded Li Xin's left, right and rear. The four surrounded Li Xin in the middle and chased towards the southwest.

This pursuit lasted a whole day.

When the sun was setting and the sky was completely dark, Wang Mo stopped in front of a post station. He looked at the sign left at the gate of the post station, turned his head and clasped his fists at Li Xin and said, "Captain Li, Lord Li and the others tonight I should have lived in this inn, so let's go in too."

Li Xin nodded reluctantly, and jumped off the big black horse.

After running for a whole day, the big black horse was still full of energy, but Li Xin was a little sluggish. Anyone who just learned to ride a horse and ran for a whole day would be unbearable.

As soon as he jumped off the big black horse, he felt his legs go weak, and the inner thighs were burning with pain.

This is horse grinding.

People who ride horses all year round will have a layer of calluses on their thighs, but Li Xin obviously does not. He has been riding for a whole day, and the skin on his thighs has been worn out.

The big man Wang Mo stretched out his hand to support Li Xin so that the young captain would not fall to the ground.

Li Xin gave a wry smile: "You're embarrassing for Habayashi Wei, Brother Wang, don't laugh at him."

Wang Mo lowered his head and said softly: "Master Li has walked at least [-] miles during the day, such a long distance, a person who rides a horse all the year round may not be able to bear it, Li Xiaowei looks like this, it is very normal .”

Two hundred miles is probably the physical limit of ordinary horses carrying people. If you want to run further, you have to change horses to complete it.

When they dismounted just now, except for Li Xin's big black horse which was able to handle it with ease, the horses of Wang Mo and others were all puffing, and if they ran any further, they would hurt the horse.

Wang Mo supported Li Xin, walked to the door of the post station, and said in a low voice: "Even if the matter in southern Xinjiang is urgent, it is not possible to run like this, and after running for such a day today, the horse will not be able to run very far tomorrow. Oh, Lord Li Hou... wants to get rid of Captain Li."

Wang Mo is a warrior, Li Xin can't fail to see what he can see.

In fact, Li Xin really wanted to be thrown off by Ping Nanhou, so that he could go back to the capital and live comfortably, but Colonel Li knew very well that if he couldn't even catch up with Li Shen, After returning to the capital, maybe the Seventh Prince will still use him, but the Emperor Chengde will not have any holy relatives for him.

Emperor Chengde is only 45 years old this year, God knows how long he can live.

Li Xin didn't want to wait 20 years until the Seventh Prince ascended the throne before he would be able to deal with the Pingnanhou's Mansion.

Besides, it is still unknown whether the Seventh Prince can ascend the throne.

Therefore, he must grasp the Chengde emperor.

Thinking of this, Li Xin took a deep breath and said softly: "No matter what he wants to do, we just follow him. Anyway, since His Majesty has ordered us, we must go to southern Xinjiang."
