Latobe stood up and walked to the curtain of the tent, looking at the dozen or so carriages parked in the open space in front of him, carrying all the things he needed. Turning his head and looking at Huo Zhu, who was smuffling milk tea and confident, he knew that he couldn't refuse.

Who is behind Huo Zhu, Latobe knows that it is the top figure in Dayan, how can such a person care about the life and death of the people in a county above the border if he wants to clean up a few people? He was just a little strange, with the energy of the person behind Huo Zhu, why was there such a need to go to such great lengths? Maybe a letter can solve these people, but he can't do it, and if he wants to borrow his own knife, it can only show that there is a powerful shili behind these people, thinking of the situation in Liaoxi County, the answer is self-evident.

"I want to know, after I do this, will Zhang Shou come to me for trouble?" Latobe walked up to Huo Zhu's face, leaned over and asked.

"Patriarch, if you succeed in killing them all and destroying Fufeng City, then, I dare to assure you that Zhang Shouyue will never trouble you, but if you don't kill them and leave a legacy of trouble, Zhang Shouyue may really find trouble with you!" Huo Zhu smiled.

Latobe was stunned, "What is the truth of this, I don't understand!"

Huo Zhu stood up and walked a few steps in the big tent, "You might as well give the patriarch some clues, these people are related to Zhang Shouyue's large wealth, because these people, Zhang Shouyue is very likely to cause trouble for our business with King Donghu in the future, and even no longer allow any materials to flow in, but if these people die, Zhang Shouyue will instead rely on us to share his share of the pie to maintain his army, I say so, does the patriarch understand?" Therefore, even if the patriarch doesn't make a move, I believe that King Donghu will definitely make a move."

Latobe is also a figure who has gone through the vicissitudes of the sea, and when Huo Zhu said this, he already knew it.

"Okay, I did it. Mr. Huo, I don't want your other rewards, but after I take Fufeng City, everything in the city will be mine." Latobe Road.

Huo Zhu daxiao got up, "The patriarch has a big appetite, okay, no problem, it's decided. Fufeng is yours, and I only need three heads." He reached out and shook it heavily with Latobe, "When will the patriarch be able to do it?"

"Not right now!" "Now is the time for livestock breeding, and this is a major matter related to the livelihood of our tribe, and it must not be overlooked," Latobe said.

Regarding this, Huo Zhu also knew in his heart, "When will the patriarch be able to send troops?"

"It's going to be mid-April at the earliest!" Latobe calculated the time in his heart, "This is the earliest time I can send troops, Mr. Huo, this means that our tribe has few livestock, and we have changed most of the Donghu tribe, but I am afraid that it will not be possible until May."

"Very good, in mid-April, in mid-April, it just so happened that I had something important to meet with the king of Donghu this time, this coming and going, it would take a month, and when I came back, it would be the time for you to launch, patriarch, without my help, you are afraid that you will not be able to defeat Fufeng City." Huo Zhu said with a smile.

Curie Pass, compared with last year, is already completely two looks, the newly repaired city wall has been increased to a full meter high, taking advantage of the opportunity of the snow season when the soil is soft, Gao Yuan ordered the soldiers to dig a large amount of earth, to build a slope to the city wall, this slope does not cost a lot of work, but can bring great trouble to the besiegers, the ladder can not be erected, unless you first level this slope, and the excavation of these earth formed a trench about five meters wide, up to two meters deep, and formed a new barrier to the city wallAlthough there is no water, it cannot be called a moat, but for the enemies outside the Curie Pass, the Donghu people, it is a natural danger.

Behind the Curie Pass, the new camp has been built, the rammed earth wall is covered with thick thatch, the dense forest in front of the Curie Pass is cut down to make a large number of fences, the whole camp and the city wall are integrated, within the fence, before the camp, is a spacious school field, on the flat field, with fine gravel compacted, flattened, no fear of rain and snow, can come in handy.

At this moment, on the school ground, more than 300 soldiers, except for the sentries who were guarding the city wall, the rest of the people gathered on the school field and practiced separately.

In the middle, headed by Gao Yuan, more than 200 people held the long knives specially made for them by Gao Yuan in both hands, lined up in a neat formation, with Gao Yuan's movements, stepped forward, Mount Tai pressed the top, and violently chopped down, every time he cleaved, it was accompanied by a loud shout.

Step-up, slash, side-step, counter-flirtation, step-up, diagonal split, lunge, stab. There are not many movements, turning over and over, they are all these few actions, but with a roar, the movements of the whole team are getting faster and faster, and slowly, the center of the entire school field is full of rolling knife light.

In a corner of the school field, the infantryman held a bow in his left hand, and his right hand buckled the string, the bow was like a full moon, and the sharp arrows that shone with cold light rested on the bowstring, but they did not fire, and behind him, fifty archers stood out of place, keeping the same movements as him, but some of their arms were as steady as a rock, and some of them were trembling slightly, for on their left wrist was a brick tied with a rope.

The face of the infantry was sweating like rain, but the man was stuck to the ground like a nail, and in front of them, pieces of human-shaped targets were nailed to the fence, and all the vital points were painted black with black charcoal, which was clear at a glance.

"Everyone is steady, your left and right sides are all your comrades-in-arms, if your hands tremble, if you can't hold the strings, you may accidentally injure your comrades." The infantry shouted. Only when you really can't hold on to it, you will be allowed to shoot your feather arrows, but you remember, the first ten who shoot arrows will practice for an hour, and the first ten who shoot arrows and don't hit the vital point will practice for another hour!"

Accompanied by the sound of shouts in the center of the field, it was the sweat of fifty archers.

Finally, a roar sounded, and an arrow came out of the string, and with a snatch, it hit the forehead of the target on the fifty-step fence, and in the middle of the queue, a young soldier with weak legs, kneeling on one knee, panting incessantly, looking at the feathered arrow that hit the vital point, his face was both ashamed and happy. It only takes an hour to practice, which is a blessing in misfortune.

With the first one, the sound of arrows continued to sound, and one after another feathered arrows flew out of the hands of the soldiers, some of them hit the vital points of the target, some of them were shot at other parts, and a few of the arrows missed the target.

It wasn't until the feather arrows in the hands of all the soldiers had been shot out that the feather arrows in the hands of the infantry flew out with a screaming sound, and with a snatch, it hit the throat, he turned his head and looked at the soldiers behind him, with a look of appreciation on his face, "Yes, I persevered for half an hour today, and I reached the required rest, and if I didn't meet the requirements, after half an hour, I practiced!"

Hearing the words of the infantrymen, a group of people smiled with joy, carried their longbows, stepped aside, and carefully removed the bowstrings, for which bowstrings were extremely precious and extremely difficult to replenish. If you don't keep it well, if you soften, the arrow will lose its power.

While the others were resting, the infantry did not join them, but erected another turntable on the edge of the fence, and the blades of the windmill were violently plucked by a soldier, and the ground turned in a hula.

The infantry stretched their bows and held their breath, their eyes staring at the rotating blades of different colors, and with a low shout, the feather arrow turned into a bolt of lightning, and it shot out with a whoosh, and with a snatch, the wheel was turned, and the paddle was reversed by this arrow, and everyone could see clearly that the arrow hit the red blade.

"Good!" The onlookers applauded vigorously.

"Come again!" The infantryman also smiled and shouted.

The turntable turned again, and the infantryman began his second round of fire with full concentration, a task assigned to him by Takato, and now seven or eight of his ten arrows could hit the target accurately. In this way, it is not difficult to be accurate, but it is difficult to predict and calculate in advance, just as Gao Yuan told him, in the chaos of the army, if he miscalculates, he will accidentally injure his comrades. Gao Yuan is actually quite satisfied with the results in front of him, and Gao Yuan believes that even among the Xiongnu and Donghu people, who are famous for their cavalry archery, there are only a handful of archers of the current level of infantry. But the infantry was not satisfied, out of ten arrows, only seven or eight arrows could be hit, and the two or three arrows that missed were injured by his comrades, and he wanted to be perfect.

In the center of the school field, Gao Yuan's clothes were already soaked, but he was still meticulously practicing these seemingly extremely simple movements, only simple can be fast, only fast, can kill opponents more effectively.

Gao Yuan knows his weaknesses well, hand-to-hand combat is his forte, but in the era of cold weapons, the brawl of spears and halberds is the most common, and his military stabs and short knives can only be effective when they are in close combat, and long-distance combat is not enough, he wants to make himself a military general without weaknesses. This two-meter-long two-handed knife is his new weapon.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

In the midst of shouting and killing, Cao Tiancheng appeared at the door of the barracks with a smile, "Open Fan Luo, brothers, open Fan Luo!"

"Close!" Gao Yuan slashed a knife, retracted the knife and stood, behind him, more than 200 soldiers moved in unison, and they all collected their knives.

"Take a bath, eat!" Gao Yuan waved his hand, the soldiers turned around, walked to the wall in a queue, closed the long knives into the scabbard, and then erected the long knives neatly on the side of the wall.

Gao Yuan smiled and walked to the wall, lifted the scabbard, closed inward, snapped, the long knife was put into the bamboo scabbard, Gao Yuan designed this long knife because it is too long, it is impossible to pull out of the sheath, this bamboo sheath is open on the side, the long knife is retracted from the side, when it needs to be taken out, the knife handle is slightly xiangxia, touch a small organ at the mouth of the scabbard, the whole long knife will come out of the sheath, and it is extremely convenient to pull out the knife.

In Gao Yuan's room, there was a plate of pickles, a plate of mutton, and a plate of fried wild vegetables on the small square table, compared with the soldiers, there were just more of these ordinary wild vegetables, Sun Xiao, Cao Tiancheng, Yan Haibo, and the infantry and Gao Yuan sat around the square table, munching on steamed buns and drinking gruel.

"I'm going to go back to Fufeng City for dinner today!" Gao Yuan tore off a mutton, threw it into his mouth, chewed it with oil, and said to the four people vaguely: "In the past two days, news has been coming from Helanxiong's side, there is an abnormal movement from the Hutu clan, it seems that they are going to make a move, I have to go back to Fufeng to report to Wu County Linghe County Lieutenant, and make preparations for this big battle. I'm not afraid that they will come to fight Curie Pass, but I am afraid that they will bypass Curie Pass and then go to Fufeng County to plunder, and the county must make all preparations."

"Bing Cao rest assured, we are here!" Sun Xiao nodded vigorously, "Speaking of which, I'm really looking forward to doing it sooner, these turtle grandsons, I can't help but cut off their heads to avenge Lao Cao."

"Brother Sun!" Yan Haibo on the side cut off Sun Xiao and looked at Cao Tiancheng with some concern.

Cao Tiancheng's face twitched slightly, but he immediately became casual.

"I'll set off after dinner, and I can rush back to Fufeng City at night, and when I'm not there, Sun Xiao will be in charge of all the affairs of Curie Pass, Sun Xiao, remember, the sentry can be farther away, and we must strengthen the contact with Helan Ministry, and I will rush back tomorrow night at the latest." Gao Yuandao.

"Yes, Bing Cao rest assured."
