Chapter 745

He tilted his head and looked at the ceiling of the study, but his consciousness was not there at all.

War horse, this one is so attractive!

In the previous crisis, the Beidou Army lost a large number of war horses in the battle with Xinuo Luo Gonglu and Du Song Mang Buzhi, and afterwards Ge Shuhan had already made a request to the imperial court's imperial horse supervisor, hoping to get a supplement from the war horses.

But war horses have always been a shortcoming of the imperial court, Ge Shuhan has applied to the imperial court for so long, and he has not seen the war horses sent by the imperial court until now.

However, Ge Shuhan didn't expect that he would actually see what the Beidou Army urgently needed most now.

The best war horse, this is a temptation that even Geshuhan can't resist!

Ge Shuhan suddenly realized that he had probably underestimated Wang Chong's role all along, and that he had something in him that all the Great Protectors urgently needed.

"10,000 war horses, this is not something that a small black wound can digest. Qing Ze, write a letter to the imperial court for me, and ask the Imperial Horse Supervisor to give us a part of the war horses. Also, send a letter to the young son of the Wang family......"

Geshuhan said.

"This ...... Do we want to give in to that kid, my lord?"

Under Ge Shuhan, the general called "Qing Ze" said with a look of surprise.

He clearly remembered the order that the general had given him before, and he still went to deal with the young son of the Wang family, but in the blink of an eye, the general's attitude changed one hundred and eighty degrees.

And as a general, admitting defeat and giving in to a younger kid whose age, qualifications, and identity are far inferior to his own is too much of a loss of identity, and I am afraid that the entire Beidou army will be disgraced.

"Hehe, who said that we have to give in? The war horse still wants it, this is for the public, as for the relationship with that kid, it is for the private part. If that kid can't even bear this pressure, let him quit as soon as possible, and in the end, it will be for his good. “

Ge Shuhan stroked his beard and said lightly.

......

To the west of the Western Regions, in the four distant towns of Anxi, there are also people who are paying attention to the movements of the Steel City. With an uproar, a carrier pigeon flew down from the sky, but this carrier pigeon did not fly into the hands of Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing, the two imperial pairs, but fell into the hands of a black-faced military general with a beard on his face.

All the news that flew to Anxi, but all the extremely important, all needed to be seen and screened by this Gao Xianzhi's confidant before it was sent to Gao Xianzhi's hands.

"More than 11,000 of the finest Turkic war horses, how could there be such absurd news, what are those scouts and spies in front thinking?"

"More than 11,000 of the finest Turkic horses, do they know how much it costs? Last time, Lord Tsugo-sama wanted to exchange for a better batch of war horses and offered a deal to the Turks, but he refused without hesitation. What even adults can't do, how can a stinking teenager do it. “

"Moreover, with the presence of the husband, how could it be possible to allow so many war horses to pass through. “

......

The black-faced military general sneered, threw out the letterhead in his hand with disdain, and shattered it in mid-air:

"It's annoying enough to protect them, so I don't have to pass this letter on to them. “

"Yes, General!"

As soon as the voice fell, the surroundings quickly fell silent.

......

In the distant Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate, the news also reached the hands of An Sishun, the Beiting Metropolitan Protector. But unlike other places, after An Sishun got the news, the entire Beiting Protector Army carried out a self-inspection along the border of the moraine area.

At the same time, a carrier pigeon crossed thousands of mountains and rivers and flew to the distant Beijing.

......

"Interesting! Ge Shuhan, Fu Meng Lingcha, An Sishun, and other Hu generals actually jointly sent a petition to the court and asked us for soldiers and horses. “

In the city of steel, Wang Chong put down the letterhead sent from the imperial court in his hand and laughed.

It is inconceivable to think that the dignified imperial protector and general actually jointly asked him for a war horse from such an obscure, newly created and powerless "little person".

"Master Hou, they want a piece of the pie this time!"

"Hou Ye has spent so much thought, and there are one million taels of gold, it is too much for them to come and pick cheap and fruits without paying anything. “

......

In the room, everyone was indignant. Wang Chong personally went to the Western Regions, cleared all the obstacles by himself, and spent a lot of gold, so that he had more than 11,000 of the best Turkic war horses.

These war horses have just arrived in the Iron City, and these people want to come to ask for benefits, how can there be such a good thing in the world?

"Master Hou, this matter is not easy to deal with, the war horse is a controlled material belonging to the imperial court. We have hoarded more than 10,000 horses here, which is against the law. If several Duhu want to make a fuss about this, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Hou Ye to get benefits. “

Behind him, Li Siye, who was more than two meters tall like a huge mountain, suddenly spoke.

Before being transferred by Wang Chong, he had been an errand boy in the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate for a period of time, so he knew some of the imperial court rules and regulations regarding war horses.

Moreover, the Northern Court bordered the Eastern and Western Turkic Khanates, and the laws on war horses were particularly strict.

Therefore, the transaction between Wang Chong and Hulu Yege was, strictly speaking, against the laws of the imperial court on war horses. If Fumeng Lingcha and other imperial capitals make a fuss about this matter, Wang Chong may really be at a loss for words.

"Hehe, if they want to do this, they have to have this ability. “

Wang Chong said with a smile, and tapped lightly on the table with his right hand, his expression was calm and calm, without the slightest panic.

"If you want to blackmail me with the war horse control laws that violate the imperial court, then I'm afraid it's really wrong. This transaction was originally led by the imperial court, and I was just a matchmaker in the middle. After these 10,000 war horses, more than ninety percent of the other war horses will be handed over to the imperial court, and the imperial horse supervisor of the imperial court will distribute and manage them. “

If the deal with Khuluyag goes well, it will be followed by a huge number of 300,000 to 400,000 horses, and in some cases, this number will be doubled.

Such a huge amount is not something that Wang Chong and tens of thousands of wounded soldiers can digest. The other war horses, in Wang Chong's plan, were originally matched by him and purchased by the imperial court.

Fu Meng Lingcha was really wrong to pinch him at this point.

What's more, there is a Song King behind Wang Chong!

"By the way, there is also a letter from the Beidou general Ge Shuhan, asking us directly for a war horse, Master Hou, should we give it to him?"

On the side, Xu Keyi suddenly spoke.

In addition to the pressure from the imperial court, the Iron City also received a letter from Ge Shuhan in the name of the Beidou army, hoping to get some war horse supplies from Wang Chong.

Among the several major guards, this is also the only one who sent a private message to Wang Chong.

The study room was instantly quiet, and when it came to the imperial capital, no one dared to intervene privately. This kind of matter between giants, every move, has a far-reaching impact, often involving countless people.

No one dares to judge themselves in such matters.

"Dada!"

Wang Chong's right finger tapped lightly on the tabletop, with a thoughtful look in his eyes. Ge Shuhan actually sent him a letter in private, and it was in the current relationship that he asked him for support from the war horse.

Frankly speaking, this surprised Wang Chong.

"Interesting, this Beidou general doesn't play cards according to common sense at all!"

Wang Chong muttered, but a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Give it to him!"

Wang Zheng said suddenly, and the simple two words were like a boulder falling, causing an uproar in the main hall.

"Master Hou, Ge Shuhan is a Hu man, he has bad intentions for doing this!"

"And did Master Hou forget, he still wants to deal with Master Hou about the incident of the festival. “

"By all means, Ge Shuhan is still against Hou Ye, the scouts of the Beidou Army have not left until now, Hou Ye gave him a war horse, wouldn't it be too cheap for him!"

......

Wang Chong's decision was beyond everyone's expectations, and even Li Siye raised his eyebrows, which was a big surprise.

"Master Hou, with Ge Shuhan's character, what if he takes our advantage and comes to deal with us at that time?"

Li Siye said.

"Hahaha, Ge Shuhan wrote to me, just to determine that I would never give it to him. If I did, I would make him look down on him and make him think I was small. “

"Moreover, the public is public, the private is private, in the last war, the Beidou army died a lot of people in order to protect Longxi and fight against Wu Sizang. The number of people is easy to replenish, but the war horse is not so easy. That's why he wrote to me asking for a war horse!"

"I will definitely give the war horse, but not because of his brother Shuhan, but for my Datang. Didn't he write to him asking for a thousand horses, and give him two thousand? In addition, tell him for me that the extra 1,000 horses were given for the people of Longxi. “

......

Wang Chong opened his eyes and knocked on the table.

Longxi is the barrier of the Tang Dynasty, and Ge Shuhan's Beidou army is the only guardian of Longxi. Behind him are millions of people in Longxi.

If the Beidou army is defeated, the old things in the southwest will repeat themselves, which is the main reason why Wang Chong is willing to give him two thousand war horses. And there is one more thing that Wang Chong did not say:

In that battle in Longxi, Wu Sizang sent the long-dormant general Wang Xinuo Luo Gonglu, and the impact of that war on the Beidou army was far more powerful than imagined.

The biggest impact is that there are too many casualties and a serious shortage of war horses. So much so that in Wang Chong's memory, there was an incident, that is, a Wusizang iron cavalry of about 2,000 people broke through the blockade of the Beidou army and broke into the hinterland of Longxi.

At that time, it was because of the serious shortage of iron cavalry of the Beidou army that this "fish that slipped through the net" was born.

Later, this Wusi-Tibetan iron cavalry slaughtered everywhere, resulting in the death of tens of thousands of people, dozens of villages were wiped out, and the matter was in a uproar, and even alarmed the imperial court, known as the "Longxi Massacre".

At that time, there were painters who happened to pass through Longxi, and they painted those tragic scenes and passed them to Beijing, which caused a great sensation, and all the people who saw the painting were crying and sad.

In the end, Ge Shuhan was also implicated and was forced to leave the Beidou Army and enter Beijing to explain to the imperial court.

Ge Shuhan wrote a letter to himself begging for horses, on the surface, he was testing himself, but in fact, because the shortage of horses in the Beidou army had reached an extremely serious level, so he had to do it.

Wang Chong can not care about Ge Shuhan, but he can't care about the Longxi tragedy in his memory.

Now that everything is happening again, of course Wang Chong will not allow this to happen. With two thousand war horses, the ability of the Beidou army should be enough to make up for the shortcomings in troops. At the very least, it should be enough to deal with the two thousand Uszor Iron Horsemen.

"Hou Ye Mingjian!"

"It's a subordinate who is confused!"

In the room, hearing Wang Chong's words, everyone was convinced. In terms of open-mindedness, Wang Chong is far beyond everyone, which is one of the reasons why everyone is willing to follow Wang Chong.

He can pour all his wealth for the people of the southwest, risk death, and participate in the battle of the southwest, or he can temporarily put aside his personal grudge with Ge Shuhan for the needs of the empire, which no one else in the Tang Dynasty can do.
