Zhang Yuan had never seen what it looked like to gallop ten thousand horses, but now the neighing of these three thousand war horses together made people's hearts warm.

Wei Qing's eyes were full of light, containing many emotions such as joy, greed, and longing.

Zhang Yuan couldn't put all his attention on the three thousand horses in front of him.

This time, almost all the nobles around Chang'an donated money, food, and war horses, and the 2,200 war horses sent by the dozen nobles not only emptied all the war horses they raised at home, but also allowed them to spend money outside and buy a lot.

Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing have almost offended Xungui.

"Zhang Changshi, you have to ask your blacksmith to hurry up and make the horseshoe.

It's almost autumn and we don't have much time to train. ”

Zhang Yuan has a headache when he mentions this matter now, why did he take such a job for his family.

"I'm afraid it won't work out in a short time, and it will take at least three months to complete the 3,000 pairs of horseshoes.

Is it feasible to directly pour a batch of pig iron or wrought iron horseshoe first, and then replace it with stainless steel before it can be drawn? ”

Wei Qing knew that this matter was difficult, so he nodded and did not refute Zhang Yuan's statement.

"General, Changshi, I heard that at yesterday's court meeting, the eldest princess also went and took the lead in donating."

Gongsun Ao mentioned this matter out of time, but Zhang Yuan blinked his eyes and didn't speak.

Obviously, the eldest princess went to Jianzhang Palace to protect Wei Qing, and the Pingyang Hou Mansion basically belongs to the leader of the abundant lineage, and the Pingyang Hou Mansion will be able to block other people's mouths if they donate their heads.

The meaning of the eldest princess is to let others find trouble just go to the Pingyang Marquis Mansion, and there is no need to implicate Wei Qing.

Zhang Yuan knew what would happen to Wei Qing and the eldest princess in the future, although it was definitely nothing at this time, but if he said something that shouldn't be said, Wei Qing would be a little embarrassed when he thought about it a few years later.

"The eldest princess should be protecting me and Changshi, no matter what, I am from the Pingyang Marquis Mansion."

Gongsun Ao nodded, he actually thought so too, and now he said this matter so that Wei Qing and Zhang Yuan don't have to worry too much, the sky is falling, and there is a high top on it.

"General, this is not three hundred new people, they were originally all generals of the Hou Mansion.

After the war, I guess all these people will have to be returned, and to be honest, I don't think I need to waste my mind on these people.

The focus at the moment is still on our inherent 2,700 people, and those 300 people are still one for every fifty people.

Among the sons of the nobles, the most incompetent ones were selected to serve as the tun chiefs, and the rest of the capable ones were promoted to other tun chiefs.

The original commander is the most capable and prestigious to be promoted to the military candidate, so that the vacancy of the officer in the army can be filled, and we can also give an explanation to those marquis.

Let them be able to get by on face, so that fewer people will think about us all day long. ”

In the past, Wei Qing would not agree to this kind of thing, but now he somehow figured it out.

He gradually discovered the advantages of appointing these noble children, once these people were promoted, the forces behind them would automatically resist some pressure.

"Okay, just do as you say.

Those guys have not returned to the camp until now, and they should have been punished at home.

Those old guys have nowhere to vent their tempers, so they can only do it to our people.

I will send the orders to promote them one by one, and then recall them by the way. ”

Gongsun Ao has not had a sense of existence since he came, no matter what it is, Wei Qing and Zhang Yuan decided it in a few words.

He is actually very smart, and he doesn't express his opinions after learning about the situation, he just listens to what Wei Qing says to Zhang Yuan.

As long as it is like the matter reported the day before yesterday, it is okay not to bring the name of his Gongsun Ao.

Once the personnel were replenished, the army began to enter normal training.

Zhang Yuan reformulated the training plan, and did not swarm all the more than 2,000 people into Lantian Mountain as he did at the beginning.

The 3,000 people are divided into six songs, each of which is ten tuns, and there are five chiefs and ten chiefs in one tun.

Only one song of people is allowed to go to Lantian Mountain to hunt every day, and they are not allowed to gather on a large scale to go together.

Instead, ten people were a team, scattered into the Lantian Mountains from all directions.

Zhang Yuan was not worried that they would gather with each other to hunt together, and he directly formulated a plan for rewards and punishments.

Ranked by the weight of the prey caught.

There are a total of 60 teams, and the top 40 teams all have rewards, which are nothing more than some money or something.

The bottom 20 teams are penalized.

Penalties range from light to severe, ranging from 20 to 100 miles of running late at night.

There are already 41,000 kilometers in a hundred miles, and if you run it in one night, you will be wasted in the next few days.

Those who have money in their families may not look down on the silver money that Zhang Yuan rewarded, but they must not want to be unable to rest after a day of fighting with wild beasts, and instead run dozens or even a hundred miles.

Originally, Zhang Yuan wanted to set a bottom line, if he passed this standard, he would not be punished even if he was in the last twenty, but he didn't know where the potential of these soldiers was, so he could only come to the last round first, and then set a standard.

But he didn't even talk about Wei Qing about this matter, for fear of leaking it out, and those rabbit cubs deliberately didn't use all their strength in the first round.

The Han army's foot soldiers were already qualified after marching thirty miles a day, Wei Qing wanted to refuse directly, but when he saw Zhang Yuan's resolute eyes, it turned into an inquiry.

"I can't hold on for a hundred miles, it's too difficult for these soldiers to persevere, right?"

Zhang Yuan looked at Wei Qing and patted him on the shoulder.

"General, if you don't give it a try, how do you know that you can't run a hundred miles?

In this way, when these soldiers return to the camp tomorrow, how the general will be punished with them, you can also see how endurance the officers and soldiers of our army are. ”

Wei Qing nodded, Zhang Yuan's words irritated him a little.

Think about it, too, how do you know you can't if you don't try.

One song went to hunt, and the other five songs totaled 2,500 people, but Zhang Yuan did not let them continue the previous mode of drilling.

To be honest, the simple exercise of using weapons cannot achieve the effect of consuming energy and fat in the body.

Targeted training can achieve the effect of enhancing physical fitness.

To put it bluntly in this era, fighting a war is to have more people, better weapons, and more powerful than whom.

The fundamental reason why the Han people could not defeat the Huns was that the physical fitness of the Han people was not as strong as that of the Huns.

If every soldier in the army can have a strong physique like Wei Qing, the two armies will definitely win against the Han army.
