At the foot of Mengshan Mountain, more than ten miles outside Xinhui County, Hejian, outside a military camp, a group of cavalry galloped back and forth, and a place within a radius of a thousand meters had been trampled to the ground, and the infantry stood at the gate, looking at those high-spirited cavalry, but their brows were furrowed.

This barracks is a barracks of the Central Group Field Army of the Eastern Army in Xinhui, the garrison is not much, when the number is the largest, there are only more than 3,000 people, every once in a while, there will be some recruits rotated here for training, and the only one that is not rotated is the cavalry directly led by the infantry.

The number was not large, only five hundred. At present, the Eastern Army and Donghu are in full swing, and almost all the cavalry that can fight have been transferred to Sun Xiao in Hetao and Helanxiong in the direction of Niulanshan.

Ye Zhen was the commander of the Central Army, but this army was almost an empty shelf, when Ye Zhen came to Hejian to take office, except for more than 100 officers, there was nothing, two years have passed, and now the Central Army has more than 10,000 soldiers.

Xinhui is now in a strange state, in the eyes of outsiders, Xinhui under the control of the Eastern Army and Anlu in Yuyang County should be in a hostile state, the two sides often have small-scale friction, from time to time there will be tension, the soldiers below do not know the situation, each other's sentinels, after the spies meet together, not to say a word, basically pull out the swords and guns, is to do a real fight, life and death each fight for the destiny, but the leader of the upper level knows that this kind of battle, It was only limited to the contest between the scouts and the squad, and there was no possibility of a war between the two sides in a short period of time.

However, the caravans that came and went with these two places were endless. Countless goods that are forbidden to trade between the two sides on the bright side are traded here in a grand manner.

Seeing that the sun had set in the west, the infantry motioned to the trumpeters beside him to blow the trumpets to collect the troops, and he himself turned around and walked towards the camp, although one of his feet was made of iron, but now he walked, he was quite steady, if you only looked at his upper body, you would never feel that this person was a disabled person.

Wherever the infantry passed, all the soldiers looked at the iron-footed general with reverence. The iron foot occasionally stepped on the stone, making a clanging sound, but it did not affect the balance of the infantry in the slightest.

The infantry has become accustomed to this kind of vision of the soldiers, but at this moment his mind is still thinking about some things about the cavalry, the cavalry at hand has been practicing for a whole year, and in the eyes of outsiders, they are already quite powerful, immediately fighting, immediately riding and shooting. The combination and transformation of formations in the battle are already decent, and there are only generals like infantry who have experienced countless cavalry battles. Only then did I know that this cavalry was just a spectacle for now.

Of course, this kind of goods also depends on who you compare with. If you compare them with the cavalry of the Central Plains, the infantry is still very confident that they will not lose to those of them, but when compared with the Donghu cavalry. Or if you compare the cavalry of the Eastern Army currently on the front line, it will be a big difference.

"Maybe only when you get to the battlefield, fight a few battles fiercely, and die some people, will you grow!" The infantry muttered, he didn't forget how he grew step by step from a foot soldier to the most powerful cavalry general in the Eastern Army, that is, he kept fighting, on the battlefield, on the edge of life and death, and the human potential was squeezed out little by little.

We are not like the Donghu people and the Huns, who grew up on horseback since childhood, what we can do is to squeeze out the potential of people as much as possible in a short period of time.

Back to their big tent, the first thing the infantry did was to pick up the pen and record some of his experiences in practicing cavalry this day, since listening to the words of the governor, over the years, the infantry has insisted on reading and reading, although it is said that a note is not very well written now, but compared to the illiterate back then, he is indeed reading a belly of books now, of course, mainly military books.

Putting down the pen, the infantry silently thought that maybe they should try the new tactics of the Helan sect leader just realized, for the Eastern Army, this is a shortcut to equip a large number of new cavalry.

The Eastern Army has never lacked horses, they lack soldiers who can fight on horses, and they don't want the Huns to dominate the world among the cavalry of the Eastern Army, this is the purpose of Gao Yuan's sending infantry to the river to train troops, although the infantry never asked Gao Yuan why, but he can also figure out this matter, especially after following Ye Zhen, he has benefited a lot.

Balance! This is a truth that Ye Zhen told him, a superior person, the most important thing he needs to do is balance.

"Commander, Commander!" The guard Mu Sanyi ran in one by one, "Commander Ye is here." ”

"Huh?" The infantry raised their heads strangely, how could Ye Zhen come to him silently, "The commander is here?" ”

"Yes, but it's weird, dressed in civilian clothes and with only a few followers." Mu San also had a strange face.

"Let's go, go out and greet you." As soon as the infantryman's heart moved, he took a step and walked out, Ye Zhen came in disguise, I was afraid that something big was going to happen, otherwise why would it be so mysterious on my own territory.

As soon as he came out of the big tent, he saw the officers on duty accompanying a few people to come quickly. The first person was Ye Zhen, the commander of the Central Field Group Army of the Eastern Expeditionary Army stationed in Hejian.

"I've seen the Commander!" The infantry beat his chest with his right hand and gave a military salute to Ye Zhen.

"Speak in the tent!" Ye Zhen nodded, and while walking inward, he said to the person behind him: "Stay at the entrance of the big tent, no one is allowed to come in." ”

The infantryman's heart jumped, looking at Ye Zhen's face, as if he wanted to poke something out of it, but Ye Zhen looked calm, just some excited colors flashed in his eyes.

"Looks like we're going to get something big!" The infantry thought to himself.

There were only three people left in the tent, Ye Zhen, the infantry, and a sturdy middle-aged man who followed Ye Zhen, and the infantry looked at each other carefully a few times to make sure that they didn't know each other.

"Infantry, in Xinhui, are you panicking?" Ye Zhen dragged a chair and sat down, looked at the infantry, and said with a smile.

"Of course it's boring, it's almost boring." The infantry nodded, "Commander, is there any work to do?" ”

"Yes, not only work, but also big work!" Ye Zhen said with a smile. "But this time, we just fished in the muddy waters and got a little benefit from it."

The infantry blinked, "Something is going to happen to Yuyang?" ”

Ye Zhen laughed, "I know I can't hide it from you." He nodded heavily, "Yuyang is going to have an accident, and it's not a trivial matter, we can't stop it, so we can only fish in troubled waters, and if we can catch a little benefit, it will be a little benefit." ”

"My troops are insufficient, in addition to 500 cavalry, there are only 1,000 foot soldiers, this little force, if you want to reap the benefits, if you don't do it well, you will steal chickens and rice!" The infantry touched their chins, a little embarrassed.

"Since I'm here, how can I come empty-handed!" Ye Zhen smiled, "The three thousand elites stationed in the county town have already set off in the name of training, I have calculated the time, when they arrive here, they can be put into it immediately, so it will not make people suspicious, anyway, our Eastern Army often trains around various counties, even if someone finds out that we are transferring troops, there will be no suspicion." ”

The infantry clapped their hands, "Okay, the commander has already planned, and now I want to know, how do we fish in the water, where is this fish?" ”

Ye Zhen laughed, "This fish is naturally in Yuyang County, Anlu is going to take it this time, and there is also a horse horse, and we also have to take it into our arms." ”

The infantry jumped up suddenly, "How is this possible, Anlu County can be stationed with Jiang Xinliang's 3,000 henchmen, the general Zeng Xianyi, that is Jiang Xinliang's hardcore henchmen, and he also assisted Jiang Xinliang in calculating Jiang Dawei's cadres, these 3,000 soldiers in his hands are the essence of the Yuyang soldiers, if we really fight, we have little chance of winning." ”

Ye Zhen looked at the infantry mysteriously, "Why fight?" ”

"Don't fight?" The infantry was a little puzzled, "What kind of way is this?" ”

"Captain Bu, I'm not joking with you, let Captain Niu tell you about the specific situation!" Ye Zhen pointed to the capable man behind him with his hand and said with a smile.

The man took a step forward and saluted the infantry: "Niu Ben of the Supervision Yuan, I have seen the infantry commander." ”

"Niu Ben!" The infantry read it in his mouth a few times, and suddenly remembered someone, and his eyelids couldn't help jumping, "Are you Miss Ning's person?" ”

Niu Ben smiled slightly, "Miss Ning is now the vice president of the Supervision Yuan, and Niu Ben is naturally also a member of the Supervision Yuan. ”

The infantry blinked twice, "Tell me, what's going on?" ”

"Ten days ago, our wild wolf sent out information at the same time in Jicheng and Yuyang's dark piles, and the intelligence showed that Tan Feng decided to take down Jiang Xinliang and officially annex Yuyang County. Judging from the information we have so far, Tan Feng has at least rebelled against more than a dozen major generals in Yuyang County, in other words, Jiang Xinliang is now almost a bare-gun commander except for the first army in charge of himself and Zeng Xianyi in Anlu, once Tan Feng is launched, Jiang Xinliang will definitely be unlucky. According to Jicheng intelligence, Tan Feng's plan was to kill Jiang Xinliang, and the slogan of the mutiny was to welcome back the old county guard Jiang Dawei, of course, Jiang Dawei could not regain control of Yuyang County, he would be taken back to Jicheng by Tan Feng, with this guy in hand, Yuyang County was taken back by the imperial court, and it was justified. ”

The infantry sighed: "Jiang Xinliang, this guy is left and right, and he wants to please him on either side, and he will not end well." Niu Ben, what are we going to do? ”

"Zeng Xianyi is a friend of Jiang Xinliang's biological mother, so it is impossible for this person to be rebelled, but the three thousand Yuyang soldiers under him are very capable of fighting, so this is also what we want, when Tan Feng launched a mutiny, we only had to involve him in Anlu and couldn't move, and when the news of Jiang Xinliang being killed by Tan Feng reached Anlu, where else could he go?"

"He has very little place to go but to us." The infantry nodded. "In other words, Zeng Xianyi and his 3,000 soldiers, as well as An Lu, will all belong to us." (To be continued......)
