Among the few people in the council hall of Xingyang Mansion, Wei Zheng's martial arts can only be regarded as a second-rate good player, not much different from Shen Luoyan and Wang Ruxin, talent is to govern the world, although he also has some opinions on the use of soldiers, but it is not as good as Shen Luoyan's specialization, Wang Ruxin can't lead the troops to fight, and it is embarrassing to be a military advisor to give advice, but he is the same as Wei Zheng is a talent in governance, although his own talent is not as good as Wei Zheng, but he can also give Wei Zheng a hand, after all, Xingyang is supported by Wei Zheng alone, and now the territory has added Wagangzhai and Jindiguan, he is already busy. Dizzy, so he asked Haihu for Wang Ruxin to help, but Haihu gave him a look that was okay with employing people, but he had to be wary, after all, the other party had just surrendered and needed to be observed.

Wei Zheng nodded and gave him a clear smile.

"It's okay to fight a war, soldiers are meant to fight. But how to fight is something you should think about. ”

Qin Shubao glanced at Shen Luoyan as he spoke, and then the two of them looked at Haihu together and said, "Lord, say it!" ”

"My attention to this is the speed of the soldiers."

Haihu said: "The good news for Luoyang has been presented, I believe that Luoyang will soon send someone with a reward to give a big reward, after all, are we heroes?" And after those rewards we accept, the people in the future will be detained or killed, and then attack Luokoucang at full speed, occupy our grain depot before Luoyang can react, and then continue the art of war Yanshi and Tiger Prison, and overthrow them as quickly as possible, then Luoyang will have no barrier in front of us, and we will be the emperor when we enter Luoyang. ”

"Should you be king first?"

Wei Zheng said: "Calling the emperor represents the form of a country, our strength is far from the time to be called the emperor, as far as Xingyang and these people are concerned, it is still far from forming a court, even if they accept the court of Luoyang, but are those personnel really successful?" ”

"From small to large, from nothing! Anyway, there are already several emperors in this world, and we are not inferior to this one. ”

Haihu thought for a while: "After the capture of Luoyang, we should go all out to consolidate our own power, conscription, money and food are problems, maintaining local security, selecting talents are the top priorities, if we can't let the people in the territory live a good life, then it will lose the meaning of fighting for the world, only we have made achievements, we have the strength to let others look high, and after the capture of Luoyang, I do not plan to expand to the north, but to prepare to target the strength of the southern strategy, the south is a rich region, is our big money and grain." , and I have a canal, so it would be cruel to make good use of such geography.

In terms of defense, Wagangzhai must send elite garrisons, which is the only way to our Dongping County, and it is also the territory of the hero Xu Yuanlang, and at the same time it is another important way to the north in addition to Chang'an, as long as we can defeat Yu Yuanlang and occupy all the counties of Dongping County, it is equivalent to a foothold in the east of Taihang Mountain, and then Hebei Dou Jiande and Taiyuan will be within our attack range. ”

"Recuperate but can't wait, our forces are scattered on all the territory, it looks pitiful, so there can't be too many people to fight, but all of them need to be elite."

Wei Zheng pondered: "If I heard that in order to prevent Turkic invasion, Taiyuan Li Valve formed a Xuanjia cavalry of only 3,000 people, one person and one horse is worth ten soldiers, although it is only 3,000 scale, but a gate valve like Li Valve can only afford these 3,000 people, not a little more." But considering the situation of our army, there is no money to pay the military salary if you raise an ironclad heavy cavalry, so you can only rely on the light cavalry to go out, fortunately, our light cavalry also has four thousand, and the commander is brave to the world invincible, as long as the war leads the light cavalry to carry out the decapitation tactics to beat the opponent's elite, the other side will inevitably be in turmoil, then our infantry will be able to divide and eat the opponent's military horses. ”

"Ironclad Heavy Rider!!"

The sea tiger is no stranger to these four words, the heavy cavalry of the Han Dynasty is dressed in iron armor, equipped with spears, steel knives and strong bows and crossbows, such cavalry in the West until Justinian I of Byzantium developed a similar heavy cavalry, such cavalry is called "double effect cavalry" weapons are mainly equipped with ring-handled long iron knives, horse halberds, etc., which can be chopped on horses, enhancing the cavalry's ability to kill, and is known as the most powerful cavalry.

When Yang Guang conquered Goryeo, he used more than 120,000 cavalry equipped with more than 120,000 armor at one time, which was all the cavalry strength of the Great Sui, and many of them were transferred from other places. At the beginning of the Great Sui Goryeo, the battle of Baiyan City, the Sui will attack more than 10,000 Goryeo troops with 800 heavy cavalry, and the Goryeo army will fight with spears, the result is that the Goryeo army is defeated, and the Sui army pursues and kills more than ten miles, beheading more than 1,000 levels and returning.

Later, Goryeo gathered in the city to defend it, and rarely went out of the city to fight.

The development of heavy cavalry in the Song Dynasty in later generations has changed, the overall shape of the Mingguang armor was gradually eliminated, the overall shape of the armor and the mountain armor became the mainstream again, and the weight of the iron armor was further increased, the iron armor often exceeded twenty-five kilograms, because it was too heavy, the imperial court had to order the weight of the armor to be limited to between twenty kilograms and twenty-five kilograms.

The cavalry of the Song Dynasty was scarce, so most of them wore horse armor, which made the Song Dynasty army, whether infantry or cavalry, heavily armed from top to bottom. Cold forging technology was used in the manufacturing technology of the armor, which made the armor durable and stronger. In order to compete with the heavy armored cavalry of Western Xia, Liao and Jin, the Song army not only made auspicious steel chain mail and black lacquer water-absorbing mountain character iron armor, but also promoted the use of heavy armor. The vests of the heavy cavalry were also divided into large and small full armor.

The whole outfit: the curtain of the horse's head, the chicken neck of the neck, the armor on the horse's body, the swinging chest on the chest, and the back of the horse's buttocks are connected together, which is impermeable to the wind, and is not inferior to the Western heavy armored cavalry.

Small full outfit: including the nail body, the tail, the item, the chicken item, the face, the autumn six parts.

And after summarizing in actual combat, the Song Dynasty army believed that small full outfits were more suitable than large full outfits.

Heavy cavalry, fully equipped with a total of 45 to 50 catties, each pair of armor leaves 1,825 pieces, heavy armor increased the burden of the horse, making it difficult to fight for a long time, only tall and strong and steady horses can act as mounts for armor and horses, even such tall horses can only trot, jog charge.

At the same time, there have also been heavy cavalry in the ethnic minorities in history, such as the "Iron Floating Tu" of the Jin Army, the "Iron Harrier" of the Western Xia, and the Huxia Iron Cavalry of Helian Bobo, which is equipped with heavy armor and the Dragon Bird Sword of the Great Xia, etc., the heavy cavalry of the Liao State, and even Mongolia has a small number of heavy cavalry.

"Our four thousand light cavalry only have iron armor on the horse's head and horse, and they are not at the same level as Li Valve's Xuanjia elite cavalry, I'm afraid that the three thousand Xuanjia elite cavalry will be finished with Li Valve's cavalry charging on their side."

The sea tiger said quietly, his four thousand cavalry are not even small and fully equipped: "The Eastern Underworld Sect makes weapons, and it seems that our heavy cavalry suits are from them." Saying that, he looked at Shen Luoyan and said, "Master Shen, the contact with the Eastern Underworld Sect will fall on you." ”

"Yes."

Shen Luoyan said: "But if we want to create a Xuanjia elite riding suit like Li Valve, we need at least 300,000 taels of silver." Although the treasury has reserves, it is only 250,000 taels, which is still the salary of the sergeant. It's easy to contact the Eastern Underworld Sect, they originally sold those, but this money?? People need to pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other. ”

"It's okay, I'll wait until the delivery time is over, if there is a delay, we will pay her back in the future."

Haihu said with a haha: "That's it, let's set four thousand sets first, and let our cavalry change their equipment." ”

"Is this okay??"

Shen Luoyan was speechless, she understood that her young marshal was simply the ancestor of smashing and robbing, and if she had no money, she would pay it on credit first, and if she owed it, she would pay it back later. But do people think like that?

With the implementation of the days, the Xingyang military horses practiced non-stop every day, and everyone only waited for the Luoyang envoys to come, ready to eat black and black, and then put up the anti-flag openly.

But in such a day, the returning Ssangyong brought another wave of guests to the sea tiger, they were guests from Song Valve, the second master of Song Valve, Song Zhi who was known as the Earth Sword and Song Yuzhi, the third lady.

It turned out that Shuanglong escaped from Jiujiang and got on the ship of Song Valve, and Song Valve, who regarded Ren Shaoming as a strong enemy, had long wanted to get rid of him, but Song Valve, except for the Heavenly Sword Song Que, no one had the strength to kill Ren Shaoming, they heard that Ren Shaoming was about to join forces with Lin Shihong, so they came to see if there were any allies to jointly kill Ren Shaoming, but they didn't expect that they Song Valve had not yet arrived in Jiujiang Shuanglong, and they came to Xingyang together because of the rescue of Shuanglong.

Kou Zhong knew that the Ahai uprising was imminent, so he wanted to pull the Song Valve onto their ship, and also took Yang Gong's treasure house as a condition, and Song Zhi was originally the main battle faction of the Song Lord, and he had been doing business for many years to earn money and recruit troops, so he was very interested in Kou Zhong's proposal for the two to unite. But Song Yuzhi, the third lady of Song Valve, was very unimpressed by Kou Zhong's proposal, thinking that he didn't know the height of the sky and was a little delusional.

But when they arrived in Xingyang, they learned that Wagangzhai and Jindiguan had been captured by the young marshal's army, and Song Zhi became even more interested in Ah Hai in Shuanglong's mouth.

In the living room of Xingyang Taishou Mansion, Shuanglong sat on a chair and drank tea slowly.

And opposite them was a man in his forties, with a slender figure, skin as white as snow, a thin face with a pair of gloomy but clever and intelligent eyes, plus an amorous mouth and five long beards, this man in a scribe's costume and demeanor was full of Zhuge Wuhou who was reborn in the world, not Song Zhi and who he was.

And next to him is a strong and moving looking son, this son's brother has thin willow eyebrows, danfeng eyes, lips like red dots, eyes like morning stars, although wearing men's clothes, but there is no fat powder, but there is a handsome and chic charm on his body.

When Haihu came to the living room, he saw these two people, although he was curious about Song Zhixin, he didn't ask rashly, and when he saw the boy next to him, two words immediately came to his mind: shemale.

Could it be that this product is made in Thailand?

Haihu looked at Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, don't these two love beautiful women? Why did you bring back two men, one big and one small, suddenly Haihu shuddered, and looked at the two of them in horror and said, "Didn't I say that you two love beautiful women?" Why didn't I come back this time with a beauty, but I brought back two masters, one big and one small, are these two people a little husband, I can tell you, although we are brothers, but it's not good enough to entrust the real grass, I like women, you two don't beat my idea. ”
