No matter what you do, there is a possibility of making money.

As the saying goes, everything can make money.

Maybe Guan Ping will be able to make the highest-level war horses in the future and sell them to Europe.

All in all, Guan Pinglai inspected the racecourse, put forward some suggestions, and made some plans for the future.

After the inspection, Guan Ping got into the carriage and left. Han Qing, the master of the horse farm, and Wu Song, the strongest horse breeder, led everyone to see them off.

"General Ming, do you want to go back to Nanzheng?" Zhou Xiong asked as he walked beside the carriage.

"No, I'll go to Hanshui to see a few brothers first, and then go to Yangping Pass, Dingjun Mountain to see Mr. Yuanzhi, Wang Ping, and Ding Feng. Send men into the city, and bring with you the remaining five hundred of your own soldiers. and told Chang Shi Ma Liang about the aftermath. In the event of any emergency, he may gather the officials and counsel them. By the way, don't forget to tell Madame. ”

Guan Ping lifted the curtain of the car and said to Zhou Xiong.

"No." Zhou Xiong promised and sent someone down.

But Guan Ping was going to take a look at the training of his army, and Guan Ping was still worried about his safety. brought out more than 1,000 soldiers from the second army.

A lesson from the past, a teacher of the future, we have to guard against it.

Soon after, Guan Ping's men passed through Nanzheng and joined up with the other army's own soldiers, and the army headed west. At present, Guan Ping's men and horses in Nanzheng are divided into Guan Ping's headquarters, Zhang Baojun, Zhao Tongjun, and Mi Weijun.

At present, Li Feizheng, the right horse, is leading ten troops to be stationed in the city, responsible for the defense of the whole city, plus training. Eighty percent of Li Fei's department are Fangling, veterans of Xinye, and they are very reliable.

As for Zhang Bao, Mi Wei, and Zhao Tong's subordinates, ninety percent of them are Zhang Lu's old subordinates or newly recruited soldiers, which are very unreliable.

Guan Ping has been in Hanzhong for seven or eight months.

Gotta go and see how it goes.

The three of Zhang Bao were stationed on a plain west of Nanzheng, near Hanshui.

Guan Ping and his entourage arrived at the camp of Zhang Bao and the others in the afternoon of the next day. The three separate camps on the north bank of the Han River each erected their flags, which was very imposing.

Zhou Xiong had already sent his men to inform him first, so Zhang Bao, Mi Wei, and Zhao Tong came to the east to meet Guan Ping first.

"General Ming." The three elder brothers, each wearing a narrow-sleeved robe, a crown, a sword, and a horse, came to meet him with a small number of personal soldiers.

Guan Ping hurriedly dismounted and helped Zhang Bao, Mi Wei, and Zhao Tong to the three of them, and kept saying: "The three brothers don't need to be like this. ”

"That's what I said. But Xiao Zhao said that younger brother, you are gradually respected, and you need to have rules. Zhang Bao rolled her eyes and said bluntly.

Zhao Tong was a little embarrassed when he heard this.

Guan Ping glared at Zhang Bao, Zhang Bao snorted, didn't take it seriously. Everyone is brothers, casual and casual. The group then entered Zhang Bao's camp and entered the big tent.

The three elder brothers invited Guan Ping to take a seat, and the three of them sat in the guest seat, and Zhou Xiong had no place and went out to guard the door.

After a while, several of Zhang Bao's personal soldiers walked in and found Guan Ping with wine and meat. Since growing up, the brothers haven't been together like this for a long time.

Guan Ping and his brothers drank wine and ate meat, chatting at the same time, which was very pleasant.

"Brothers, how is the training?" Guan Ping didn't forget his intention when he smiled, picked up a piece of cooked meat and put it in his mouth, and said while chewing.

Between brothers, there are no rules.

It's just haphazard.

"Speaking of which, your brother is really ruthless. The soldier I trained with great difficulty was suddenly pulled by you to Li Fei's stinky boy. With five or six hundred soldiers to take over Zhang Lu's old department. Some recruits are left and right, and they need to be trained anew. Some people are superstitious about the Five Buckets of Rice Religion, and they burn incense and pray from time to time, but I drove away a few who made too much trouble. ”

Zhang Bao said depressedly.

This brother is straightforward and fast-talking.

Guan Ping handed over everyone's elite soldiers to Li Fei before, but this matter was actually not kind. It's the general's life to find the soldiers.

But the third brother still gave the soldiers to Guan Ping.

Zhang Bao complained a little, and his mouth was spent.

"Brother, you better be considerate of me. I can't help it. If you don't concentrate your elite troops, you really don't have combat power. If this happens, the army may mutinied. This is the only way to make a decision. ”

Guan Ping Haosheng said.

"Drink." Zhang Bao raised the wine bowl and said directly.

"Okay." Guan Ping didn't say a word, and touched a cup with Zhang Bao. After drinking this bowl, Zhang Bao didn't complain anymore, and said directly: "The military training is not bad, I have no problem guarding the city." But going out to fight is still a bit mysterious. You need to practice for another half a year. ”

"What Brother Zhang said is true. After all, these soldiers are from Hanzhong, and their hearts are not as good as Fang Ling, the new savages. You still need to practice before you can go to the battlefield, otherwise there is a high risk of mutiny. Zhao Tong also said beside him.

Mi Wei, as always, did not say a word.

"I've got it." Guan Ping nodded when he heard this, and exhaled in his heart. After half a year, it can be used again. And if Cao Cao went south as in history, he would need to build an winter before he could reach Xinye.

At that time, the soldiers and horses of these three elder brothers will also be useful.

Guan Ping and his three brothers ate this meal of wine and food, and then Zhang Bao raised the account to order the troops, and summoned the soldiers for Guan Ping to watch, which was indeed a momentum.

It's no problem to defend a city.

And the peep leopard in the tube, Xu Shu, Ding Feng, and Wang Ping's soldiers on the front line of Yangping Pass should be about the same.

On this day, Guan Ping will not leave. Sleep with Zhang Bao at night. Zhou Xiong personally fetched hot water and washed Guan Ping's feet. Guan Ping and Zhang Bao lay on the bed together, huddled together.

"Brother. Next year, I will build two cities here, as well as in the east of Nanzheng. They are called Seoul and Lecheng respectively. Guan Ping couldn't sleep for a while, so he said to Zhang Bao.

"Is it the South Shore, or the North Shore?" Zhang Bao asked.

"It's the North Shore." Guan Ping replied.

"Is this because I was worried that Nanzheng's defense was too weak, so I built these two cities to increase Hanzhong's defense?" Zhang Bao couldn't do anything else, but he still had military literacy, and immediately realized Guan Ping's intentions.

"yes. Hanzhong is the gateway to Bashu, although the north is surrounded by mountains, but Hanzhong's own defense is too weak, and it needs to be strengthened. ”

Guan Ping nodded and said.

"Why next year, and not this year? I have nothing to do with Zhao Tong and Mi Wei. While training troops, there is no delay in building cities. ”

Zhang Bao wondered.

"Let's train the soldiers first." Guan Ping said with a smile.

Zhang Bao doesn't care, anyway, what Guan Ping asks him to do, just do it. The two brothers soon lost their words, and soon after Zhang Bao fell asleep, he snored.

Guan Ping shook his head.

The reason why the castle is being built next year is because there may be a big war this year. As for the construction of the two cities of Han and Le, Guan Ping copied Zhuge Kongming.

In history, Wang Ping guarded Hanzhong, Cao Shuang led an army of 100,000 to attack Shu Han, the vanguard was already in Luogu, and the defenders of Hanzhong were less than 30,000.

The generals were shocked and asked to retreat to Han and Le Ercheng.

These are the two cities.

These two cities are the last line of defense in Hanzhong if the other party successfully crosses the mountain road. Together with Nanzheng, it was stationed in the northern part of Hanshui.

But Wang Ping did not agree, but led a large army to block Cao Shuang, and Cao Shuang did not even turn over the Qinling Mountains. Wang Ping is so powerful.

And this Han, Le Ercheng, was built by Zhuge Liangliang's order, and Zhuge Liangliang also built the Sword Pavilion Pass.

Zhuge Liangliang watched the terrain, built the city because of the place, and the casting pass was really powerful. In history, if it weren't for Deng Ai smuggling into Yinping, and the later lord Liu Chanru weakly surrendered, Shu Han would not have died so easily.

With the bell, you can't beat the Sword Pavilion.

And now Deng Ai is my son.

Thinking of this, Guan Ping couldn't help but be happy, and then fell asleep in a daze.

Early the next morning, Guan Ping, under the send-off of his three elder brothers, embarked on a journey to Yangping Pass with Zhou Xiong.

Attacking Hanzhong from the north, there are five roads, four of which are to cross the Qinling Mountains, and the last one is the Qishan Road, which is to attack Hanzhong from Longyou.

The road is suitable for large-scale marches, carrying grain, grass, baggage, and even siege equipment.

The other four roads are really difficult to follow, and they are also easy to be ambushed. This road is easy to walk, so Cao Cao went south from Qishan Road and attacked Hanzhong.

After the first battle, Cao Cao was really powerful.

And to attack Hanzhong, you must first break through Yangping Pass, Dingjun Mountain, and Tiandang Mountain. Therefore, there is such a saying, if you get Yangpingguan, you will get Hanzhong.

Therefore, Guan Ping won Hanzhong, so he first sent the general Xu Shu to supervise Ding Feng and Wang Ping, and stationed them in Yangping Pass, Tiandang Mountain, and Dingjun Mountain respectively.

After Guan Ping came to Dingjun Mountain, he neither went to Tiandang Mountain nor Dingjun Mountain, but went directly to Yangping Pass.

Ding Feng, Wang Ping had already gotten the news, and greeted Guan Ping with Xu Shu in front of Yangping Pass. After a conversation with everyone, Xu Shu invited Guan Ping to sit down in the lobby of the Guannei General's Mansion.

Guan Ping naturally won the northern throne again, Xu Shu, Ding Feng, and Wang Ping sat on both sides together, and Zhou Xiong was responsible for guarding the door.

"I came to Yangpingguan, first, to visit you, and secondly, to see how the soldiers practiced." Guan Ping put his hands on his knees, raised and put them down and patted them gently, then turned his head and looked around: "What do you think you think?" ”

Xu Shu is a general, so he first arched his hand and said: "General Ming, it's no problem for the army to defend a city." But when it comes to fighting, it's still a little short. ”

Guan Ping nodded when he heard this, as expected, they all had the same source of soldiers and the same training time. The situation between Zhang Bao and Xu Shu is the same.

Then Guan Ping glanced at Ding Feng and Wang Ping.

Ding Feng first arched his hand and said, "Me too." ”

Wang Pinghou also said: "I am the same. ”

Guan Ping immediately went out of the general's mansion with the three of them, Xu Shu ordered military drills, Guan Ping also looked at it, and that's it. It's okay, it's okay to practice, and there is also a momentum.

But on the battlefield, it's hard to say.

After watching the soldiers' drills, Guan Ping asked Xu Shu to vacate a room in the general's mansion and summoned Wang Ping to speak alone.

But it's Xu Shu, Ding Feng has nothing to worry about. Wang Ping is illiterate, Guan Ping is very concerned about this issue, and he is afraid that Wang Ping will be embarrassed if he talks about this matter to Wang Ping in public.

He summoned Wang Ping separately to ask.
