  • Play on maximum difficulty;
  • Explore the world during a thunderstorm;
  • Find a skeleton horse (the probability of appearance depends on the difficulty, the higher the difficulty, the higher the chance of the horse spawning);
  • Approach it at a distance of at least 10 blocks and wait until lightning strikes the horse and 4 horsemen appear;
  • Defeat riders on horseback.

But if you want to do it a little bit faster, you can call a horse trap during a thunderstorm using the command

/summon skeleton_horse ~ ~ ~ {SkeletonTrap:1}
