Zhao Hu was stunned for a moment, and then slammed the table: "These guys!" Actually falsely reported the military situation! ”

Seeing Zhao Hu angry, the Wu Commanders shrank their heads, and a relatively old Wu Commander had the courage to say: "Sir, you can't blame them, after all, everyone is scared by the restrictions of the wing, and they can't wait to get a large number of materials to store it." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Hearing this, Zhao Hu sighed, shook his head and said, "How to solve the problem of food?" ”

"Hey, don't worry, there will be merchants coming to our town soon." The captains laughed again, and laughed a little lewdly.

Zhao Hu raised his eyebrows: "Businessman? Are there any permanent merchants passing through here? ”

"It's not a fixed businessman, these businessmen have the most sensitive sense of smell, we have just been paid a military salary, and in a few days, they will smell the smell of gold and come to the door, when the time comes, there will be food, horses, weapons, wine, women, everything, if we don't empty our military salary, they will not leave!" The Wu Commanders swallowed their saliva as they spoke, looking expectant.

"Where are they from?"

"There are provincial towns, county governments, Feimu Banner Alliances, and some local merchants with strong capital, anyway, it is a mixture of various regions."

"There are also people from the Feimu Banner Alliance? Doesn't it mean that we have a strained relationship with them? Can weapons be sold to them? Zhao Hu asked curiously.

"Sir, the Feimu Banner Alliance is not a whole, there are at least hundreds of pastoral flags in it that usually live separately, don't look at these pastoral flags staying under the same banner, they usually don't fight to the death in the country and swallow each other.

"So although the wind is tight on our side, the great thing is that a few Muqi living on the border have ambitions for our territory, and Muqi in other places still do business with us, and I heard that doing business with us once makes enough money for them to live for a year. As for weapons, of course you can because there is no ban. ”

Zhao Hu didn't particularly care if Mu Qi could buy weapons, he cared about other things: "You mean, the Fei Mu Banner Alliance is not united, and it is a plate of loose sand?" Even if it is invaded, it is a few separate pastoral flags? ”

"Yes, that's why the officers above don't care so much, because even if there is a war, even if our territory is occupied, they can easily drive the enemy out, but pity us soldiers stationed at the border. This is also the reason why the upper echelons of the empire did not restrict the sale of weapons to them at all. Wu Chang sighed.

Only then did Zhao Hu really understand why the officers were so careless.

Although the gold mine is the cause, the real reason is that this enemy is scattered and will not attack in a big way.

But...... Although the Feimu Banner Alliance was scattered in the past, who can guarantee that they are still scattered sand?

Sure enough, as the logistics chief said, within a few days, a large number of people dressed as nomads drove thousands of horses and dozens of carts to Kulong Town.

They have a total of three first days, according to age, they are old, middle and young, and they belong to the three pastoral flags of the Feimu Banner Alliance.

As soon as they arrived, they obediently gave Zhao Hu a horse with a beautiful saddle.

Zhao Hu immediately accepted the gift with a smile and immediately agreed to their request to hold a seven-day fair.

After Zhao Hu agreed to their request, Zhou Wen immediately reminded him to show that he liked their gifts very much, and Zhao Hu could only helplessly turn over and ride his horse and gallop.

After seeing Zhao Hu go away, the middle-aged leader said in a low voice: "The skills such as riding on the horse are absolutely superb, and they can be compared with the top riders in my country." ”

The young leader was a little unconvinced: "That guy is so powerful?" Just a second lieutenant. ”

The middle-aged leader smiled and said, "You have to carefully study the military system of the Augustus Empire." The rank of second lieutenant requires you to kill ten enemies on the front line alone in order to be promoted. Don't underestimate the officers of the Augustus Empire who rose from the bottom, they all rose up by their own swords and brains without backing. ”

The young leader is still a little unconvinced: "I still don't believe that he can compare with the top riders in my country." ”

At this moment, the old leader spoke: "The second lieutenant's riding skills just now were forged on the battlefield, and our top riders can barely compete with him. ”

Hearing this, the two leaders of the middle and young people looked shocked.

"Then, do you want to send him a beautiful woman to accompany him to the end of the market according to the custom?" The middle-aged leader asked respectfully.

The young leader interjected with a fierce expression and said, "I'm still against it!" This has always been a shame for our warriors, our warriors on the grassland, we don't have the habit of sending women to wait for people, you must know that we haven't even arranged the money-making service of the Qinglou, why should we send women to the second lieutenant to play? ”

The middle-aged leader wanted to say something, but the old leader had already shook his head and said, "No, I don't think he's interested in the woman we sent." ”

The middle-aged leader immediately said with a sudden expression: "The personal servant next to him is dressed as a woman?" No wonder it's so beautiful. ”

The young leader immediately nodded in agreement, and looked reminiscing.

It's no wonder that they look at the wrong eye, because these days Zhou Wen deliberately found a military uniform with a relatively high collar to block his Adam's apple, he would do this, mainly because he was afraid of himself who followed Zhao Hu, whenever he was seen, those people looked at themselves first, and then looked at Zhao Hu with strange eyes.

In order to avoid embarrassment on the spot, Zhou Wen was willing to be misunderstood as a woman, and what kind of discussion would be caused when the truth was learned afterwards was not in Zhou Wen's consideration.

The old leader shook his head again: "Didn't you see the eyes of that little guy, only the loyalty and gratitude of the slave to his master?" That little guy may have been rescued by him, and there is no other relationship except for the master and servant, since such a beautiful woman who can be obtained at any time can be put aside, let alone other women. ”

"Hey, I just don't know if he's a topboard." The young leader guessed maliciously.

The middle-aged leader didn't want to be so unstylish, so he immediately changed the topic: "Yes, if they buy war horses, will we sell them or not?" ”

"Sell, it's not time yet, and we need a lot of money to buy weapons and food, we have a lot of war horses, why don't we sell them?" The elder leader said, and the middle-aged leader nodded instructively.

And the young leader sighed: "It's a pity that we don't have gambling masters, otherwise we can open a casino and make a lot of money." ”

The old leader smiled: "The casino needs a lot of secret doors and skills, otherwise you will be killed, these are things that we nomads can't learn." ”

Hearing this, the two leaders of the middle and young people nodded respectfully and said yes.

After Zhao Hu returned from riding his horse, he immediately asked Dio to discuss the purchase of war horses with the three leaders.

The Feimu Banner allies are a grassland country with a very developed animal husbandry, but grain and grass are not what they are good at, so they only buy war horses from them.

Zhao Hu didn't pay attention to his decision on the use of the brigade's funds without authorization, and expanded the number of cavalry without authorization, in fact, he exceeded his authority, but he didn't know, no one objected, and no one reminded him, so Dio, who was based on Zhao Hu's order, acted immediately.

After some bargaining, the price of ten gold coins per horse was agreed, and Dio rushed back to ask Zhao Hu about the number of buyers.

"Ten gold coins a horse? So cheap? Although Zhao Hu doesn't understand the market, he also knows that he can buy two and a half horses with his monthly salary as a second lieutenant, which is too cheap.

"The Feimu Banner ally is a grassland country, and the horses are dozens of times the population, and there are a lot of them, and once there are more things, they are not worth much, so ten gold coins is reasonable, and if it is not reasonable, they will not drop from fifteen gold coins." Dio said with a bit of merit.

"How much money do we have now?"

"Since both silver and copper coins were exchanged for soldiers, we now have about four thousand gold coins."

"Well, just buy him two hundred horses, and use the rest to buy grain."

Just when Dio was about to act in accordance with the order, Zhou Wen interjected and said: "Sir, Sun Jie just ran to say that our soldiers did not spend a lot of money in the market of the Feimu Banner Alliance, but carefully guarded the money bag, it is said that the soldiers knew that the market of the Feimu Banner Alliance was not fun, and they still left the money for the merchant groups who came from China." ”

"Huh?" Zhao Hu didn't know what Zhou Wen meant when he said this, but he also knew that he wouldn't say this for no reason, so he couldn't help but think about it carefully.

As soon as he thought about the actions of the Feimu Banner Alliance, it became clear, and Zhao Hu said violently: "The Feimu Banner Alliance knows that it can't make money from the soldiers, but it still asks for a seven-day bazaar, obviously to sell horses to domestic merchants!" Isn't that so? ”

Zhou Wen said with a smile: "Yes, the chief is wise, so my subordinates think that we can spend all the money, buy all the good horses brought by the Feimu Banner Alliance, and then directly exchange food and weapons with the domestic merchant group at domestic prices. ”

Dio was a little worried: "Will the domestic business group not agree to this spread transaction?" ”

Zhou Wen said with a smile: "Uncle Diou, don't worry, they are trading here, we are the garrison here, no matter what, we have to give face, just reduce the price a little if it's a big deal." ”

After thinking about it, Zhao Hu said, "Okay, just do it." Dio, go find some cavalrymen who know how to pick horses, and pick the best ones. ”

"Yes." Dio immediately ran out, he could command the soldiers, how majestic, he didn't even dare to think about it before.

Since there is nothing fun in the Feimu Banner Alliance Bazaar except for wrestling and horse racing, there are many boring soldiers, and when they hear Dio's order, almost everyone who claims to be an expert runs to the enclosure of the Feimu Banner League to select.
