Since the assassination of the history of the house, because the north of the city Lingshui River on the side of the horse farm has not yet begun to build, there is no need to rush to lead the team of the job, Ma Yue has been getting up every day to practice martial arts, whether it is a spear or a short knife or a spear sword axe, he has practiced diligently, battlefield fighting is not a game, weapons are not durable goods but consumables.

In this era, the ring knife has to be curled after three or five collisions, and it is difficult to continue to use the weapon in the hand after a battle, so many times it is to pick up what to use. The refined iron of the Western Regions is a good thing, the refined iron weapon is durable and sharp, but a piece of refined iron is worth thousands of gold and is in short supply, and it is not at all that Ma Yue's current small team can get it.

Practicing your skills is the last word.

The Ma family has added a new ding, every day the family carriage to Chengli runs diligently, bringing back a cart of food and clothes, this year's situation is not good, Liangzhou's grain has risen to 100 yuan of rice, not to mention that it is about to enter the winter to buy some winter clothes, and the winter grain price will definitely be longer, it is better to save more now and have some money left.

After lunch, in the afternoon, he studied the military book at home and the articles that are now popular all over the world, but the border area of Liangzhou is far away from the Central Plains, and even the articles given to him by Liang Hu are only famous two or three years ago, but there are no recent masterpieces.

At night, Ma Yue copied the eight-point book on Liang Hu's calligraphy, and Ma Yue believed that calligraphy and martial arts had something in common, just like the big characters of the eight-point book in his pen were all tense and domineering.

Every five days, I go to Liang Hu's house to study for a day, and occasionally go to Mr. Liang Hu and wine as a song, and the life is not happy, as if all worries are left behind.

However, in twenty years, the wound on Ma Yue's injured head has already scarred, so neat, and his hair has grown full stubble, although it still looks a little insulting and impolite, but it adds to him the toughness and fierceness of a northland man.

At least the current Ma Yue doesn't look like a child's face in the past, and he has more of a man's true character.

In this month and a half, a major event also happened.

In September, there was an earthquake in Liangzhou.

The magnitude of the earthquake was not large, but it also displaced 23 out of 10 people in Liangzhou, after all, the Han Dynasty houses were still not strong enough, even if the magnitude of the earthquake was not large, it was enough to make the earthen house wall overturn. Ma Yue in Longxian County alone can always see hundreds of refugees dragging their families to and fro.

Ma Teng took Ma Zong to select more than ten strong refugees to recruit as villagers, and the earthquake disaster Ma family's new house was also affected, and two walls collapsed, but fortunately, the villagers under the wall only scratched some flesh and did not hurt their muscles and bones, and they were scared to cry a few children. Now the population is needed to repair the new house, and more than 20 people from these ten families have been recruited to join, and the labor force of the Ma family is one step closer, and now the Ma family accounts for 40 households in 100 households in Zhangshan Village.

The construction of the racecourse has begun, and this great difficulty has saved a lot of trouble for the assassin Shi Lianghu, a warrant was issued, and the four counties opened warehouses for disaster relief, and posted notices to build the racecourse for ten big dollars a day, and hundreds of refugees were conscripted, and soon the military camp next to the racecourse was built.

After the military camp was built, Ma Yue's 100-man long team was put on the agenda.

The two tun chiefs didn't give him any surprises, one Chen Feng used to be a blacksmith with strength, the other was called Yang Fei was a Qiang man who could ride and shoot, and the hundred-man Han army was not brilliant, although Ma Yue was young, he had a strong waist and a strong body, and there were dozens of people who folded in his hands after a few battles, and the tiger's little face also had such a fierce color. There was no thorn in the coffin to make him stand up, and he usually took over this team of 100 people and was stationed on the bank of the Lingshui River to take care of the horse farm.

Although the quality of the army is not very good, Mr. Liang Hu will naturally give him some convenience for the history of assassination, hundreds of sets of armaments are well maintained, ten refining ring knives and iron-headed halberds, ten five-stone strong crossbows, ten strong bows and ten horses, Liang Hu also gave him a set of iron cloth armor that can only be worn by military candidates, the Han army is still red, and the military uniforms are all red and look very festive.

It stands to reason that the military uniforms of Liangzhou should be mainly gray and white, but Liang Hu has stayed in Luoyang, Kyoto for most of his life, and is used to seeing the Red Sea of the military uniforms of the Northern Army, so the military uniforms of Ma Yue and others are red. This batch of armaments was a gift from Emperor Ling when he ordered Liang Hu to supervise Liangzhou on his behalf.

Ma Yue has been studying the military books handed down by his ancestors for some years, but he has never practiced them, and the new 100 Han army under him naturally made his training flourish.

Since his birth, Ma Yue has always been a very serious person, most of his leisure time is always practicing martial arts and learning the rest of the literature, when he was young, the situation at home was compelled, and he could only lead the dog into the forest with a knife to ask for a life as a positive career, but he still likes to practice martial arts and read books, and now in addition to these two things, he has found a thing that he loves from the heart.

The resident barracks had less time to go home, and every five days he spent one day studying at Mr. Liang Hu's house and then staying at home for one day, instructing Ma Chao and Ma Xiu in martial arts, or chatting with the two sisters-in-law. Even after serving in the military, he was still the little boy who was raised by his sisters-in-law. Ma Teng is now in charge of arresting thieves and patrolling the streets in the county, but he has done a good job, he is a kind and tolerant person, and whoever has a dispute in the neighborhood will settle it with the Ma family, and soon he has a good reputation among the civilian class in the county.

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of October, and it snowed heavily in Liangzhou.

The county lieutenant Wang dared to dial hundreds of sets of lined cotton clothes, and in the early morning, Ma Yue took the sergeants to clean up half a foot of snow in the military camp, and it was another day of training.

Ma Yue absorbed a variety of ways to train the army, when he was young, Ma Teng learned from his ancestor General Fubo's training experience and explained it to him seriously, and later the training methods of the Qin and Hu people in the family also had unique features, not to mention the organization and discipline of the later republic. These days, he has been exploring his own way of training.

Most of the border soldiers are brave and good at fighting, and the wolf nature in the bones of the nomads cannot be extinguished no matter how many years they have, but their weakness is also very prominent, that is, the chaos of military discipline.

However, this kind of problem is very low here in Ma Yue, and for some reason his subordinates are a bunch of honest and bitter people, and the team is saying that they dare not go north if they go south. This may be because the chaos is not so prominent today, even in Liangzhou, there are more natural disasters than man-made disasters, although people's living conditions are not good, they are still passable.

In Ma Yue's view, it may be that after the Sanqiang Uprising, most of the Liangzhou warlords recruited those Qiang and Hu righteous subordinates, and developed their stinky problems of arrogant soldiers with the ferocious fighting style of fighting and the victory of each battle.

Most of his 100-strong Han army are from good families, most of them have never experienced battles, never seen blood, are not so brave, and naturally are not so arrogant. However, Ma Yue knew that this horse farm was not an easy job, and it would not be long before war horses would arrive here, and bandits from all over the country would probably flock to it.

I'm afraid that not only the bandits, but even the local tycoons here may also come up in the dark to participate.

After dormant for several months, Ma Yue finally got the first order sent by Liang Hu.

In November, Cheng Mou, the county governor of Luoyang County, transported 100 good horses to the west of Longxian County, and ordered Ma Yue to receive them. At the same time, all the counties of Hanyang County were transporting horses on the road.

Ma Yue is busy.
