Datang: Li Er, are you teaching me how to do things?

Chapter 41 The Unwilling Prince
Li Yun asked the soldiers of Qianniuwei who were playing polo, "Which of your horses has the best stamina?"

After a while, Li Yun came to a stable next to the racecourse, and he saw a gray horse.

This horse is tall, without too much fat on its body, and its belly is very tight.

She has shiny hair and eyes and is a wonderful horse.

"Your Highness, this is a horse from the Western Regions. It is the fastest and most durable horse in our polo team."

"Since it's so good, why not arrange to play?"

"This is our trump card. We originally planned to fall behind, so we sent it to charge, but we didn't expect to lead directly."

Li Yun nodded, "What's its name?"

"It's called Chasing Shadow."

"Okay, during the Three Kingdoms period, there was also a horse called Zhui Ying. Later, I will ride Zhui Ying and lose the race with Qu Li."

This Chasing Shadow is indeed a good horse, and very docile, Li Yun easily handles Chasing Shadow.

After a while, Li Yun came to the racecourse on Zhuiying, and Qu Lishi had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Let's draw a line and run around the line for a total of ten laps. How about we see who finishes first?"

Because the polo field is not a grassland, there is no way to compare the speed of a straight line, so you can only run around the polo field.

Qu Lishu nodded, "No problem."

Wei Wanyu stood in the front seat with a worried face, "You have to be careful, don't worry about the result, safety is the most important thing."

Li Yun smiled, and then blew a kiss to Wei Wanyu.

Qu Lishu looked confused, and Li Yun didn't bother to explain.

After a while, the order sounded, and the game officially started. Li Yun clamped his legs, and then rushed forward with his horse.

He is like riding a motorcycle to bend, with his body facing forward and pressed very low.

Qu Lishi also rushed out almost at the same time, his posture was almost exactly the same as Li Yun's.

According to the accepted systematic knowledge, top professional riders not only need to have a good horse when riding a horse, but more importantly, they must find their own rhythm with the horse.

Keep a level rhythm with the horse so that you don't stop the horse as he charges forward.

These horses are spiritual, they have their own way of handling, and the main job of the rider is to cooperate.

So after Li Yun rushed out, he immediately began to feel the rhythm of chasing shadows.

The moment Zhuiying's limbs were flying, he could feel Zhuiying's powerful hind limbs.

Chasing Shadow's steps are very large, and the frequency is also very fast.

At a corner, Chasing Shadow's change of direction was a bit big, Li Yun subconsciously turned to one side, moving with Chasing Shadow's center of gravity.

He heard the sound of horseshoes behind him, and Qu Lishuo was right behind him, but Qu Lishuo did not catch up.

Undoubtedly, Qu Lishi was very shocked at this time. He never expected Li Yun's movements to be so standard. Looking at the posture of riding a horse, he was not weaker than the grassland people at all.

Moreover, he could see that Li Yun's horse was very light and ran very easily, and Li Yun's posture on the horse was also very light, which completely reached the point of fusion of man and horse.

Qu Li heard some old people in the clan say that if you want a horse to run fast, you have to minimize your own presence.

Regarding this point, he has not been doing well enough. Seeing Li Yun now, he understood what kind of state this should be.

Of course, he did not admit defeat. From Qu Lishi's point of view, although Li Yun may have better riding skills than him, his horse is a real thousand-mile horse, the best horse in their Ba Yegu Department.

On the prairie, he often relied on this great horse to come first in the rain and soft competition.

So he wasn't worried because his horse was the best.

However, after three laps, Li Yun was still in front, and gradually opened up the distance, the distance between the two was about ten meters.

Qu Lishuo has been unable to catch up with this gap.

"Drive, drive, drive."

Trey lost the strength of his legs and clamped the horse's back with his thighs. He wanted to tell the horse to run faster.

The horse is very spiritual and immediately speeds up.

However, Qu Lishu soon discovered that the horses in front were also speeding up. Although these horses did not have the intelligence of humans, they still knew how to run a simple race.

Neither humans nor animals are willing to lose to their opponents.

After another three laps, the two horses were still about ten meters apart.

Qu Li couldn't help being a little impatient, he patted the horse's back vigorously, and the horse accelerated again, further approaching the distance from Chasing Shadow.

"Da da da!"

Seeing the horse getting closer and closer, Chasing Shadow in front accelerated again.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Trevor patted the horse vigorously.

At this moment, there was a curve ahead, but Li Yun straightened his body slightly and leaned towards the opposite direction of the curve.

Chasing Shadow quickly rushed over, this time the turning range was obviously much smaller, and the time to pass the curve was also reduced a lot.

However, Qu Lisuo's horse still followed closely, and the two horses opened up a little distance again.

"Great Tang, Great Tang, Great Tang!"

The audience who did not leave were extremely excited. If Li Yun wins, no matter if it is a single person or a group, they will all win.

This time the fare is worth it.

The members of the polo team were all stunned. If Li Yun wasn't the prince of the Tang Dynasty, they would definitely think that Li Yun was a man from the prairie, which is too elegant on horseback.

They know this kind of riding best, and only a few people in the Tang Dynasty can compare with the grassland people.

This is exactly the riding skill they envy.

"No, His Highness is not the riding skills of the prairie people. His Highness's movements are more stretched and natural."

"Look at Qu Lishu, that's the style of the grassland people. They always like to huddle on the horse's back and pat the horse hard."

"But His Highness Chance didn't beat Chasing Shadow, he looked so natural, like a warrior on horseback."

Li Yun is now a top professional and a competitor in the Olympic equestrian competition.

In the Olympics of later generations, few prairie men participated, not because they couldn't afford air tickets, but because they really didn't have the strength.

Therefore, Li Yun's riding skills at this time have thrown off [-]% of the prairie men, at least much better than Qu Lishu.

After a few more corners, Zhuiying pulled up to 30 meters, with two laps left, Qu Lishi almost had no hope of winning.

The audience was even more excited, and bursts of applause and cheers erupted in the polo field.

Li Yun was like a general returning in triumph, applause and flowers everywhere he went.

Qu Lishi followed Li Yun, looking at the smoke and dust raised by the horseshoes in front, feeling helpless.

The cheers of these Tang people pierced his heart like a knife. He didn't understand why he couldn't do it anymore?
Why can't his horse catch up with Li Yun?
Li Yun is a native of the Central Plains, how can he ride so well?

Could it be that God helped Li Yun, or that he was already so good, but he kept a low profile and didn't show off.

"Da da da!"

Chasing Shadow returned to the starting point, running forward like a gust of wind, and then gradually slowed down after a while.

Qu Lishi smiled wryly, then got off his horse, "Your Highness is brilliant, I am not as good as you."
