Chapter 378: Inspecting the Barracks (Part 3)

Time flies, and before I know it, it has been a full year since the battle of Hedong County, and the time has come to the spring of 247 BC.

In the past year, although there were a few small-scale frictions in the entire land of China, on the whole, the Seven Heroes of the Warring States maintained a very rare peace.

But this is actually something that can be expected, after all, in the first two years, there were two major wars that affected almost all countries, the Battle of Changping and the Battle of Hedong County.

In the battle of Hedong County not long ago, the Qin State suffered heavy losses in this battle, and although the Chu State claimed to be victorious, the actual losses of troops would not be under the Qin State, and it was difficult to call it a winner.

Both countries need a certain amount of time to heal.

As for the Qi State, although there was also such a big victory as the Battle of Lanling, there was also a subsequent defeat against the Yan State, which could only be regarded as a victory or defeat.

Speaking of the real big winner, in fact, the only one is the Three Jin Alliances led by Zhao Guo, and in this war, the Three Jin Alliances are all victorious in expanding their territory and making a lot of money.

It is precisely because of this that the Sanjin have been busy consolidating their rule in Xinjiang for the past year, and they have no intention of fighting abroad.

Even in the far north of the Yan Kingdom, because Yan Wang Ke had just ascended the throne through a major war, the political situation was not stable due to the regency of the Empress Dowager Yan, and under the guidance of the policy of shutting down the outside world and first securing the interior, it was natural that there would be no intention of external expansion.

Under the influence of these factors, peace has become the main theme of the entire Chinese land in the past year.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that true peace can only come to a land that has been plagued by centuries of war when the Seven Kingdoms decide on a final victor.

Who will put an end to all of this and make peace truly enjoyable for the people?

Many people have their eyes on Zhao Guo.

On this day, Zhao Dan took many entourages, accompanied by the two military giants, Lian Po and Pang Xuan, and came to the northern army camp outside Handan City.

This is not to say that Zhao Dan likes pomp, but after the last assassination incident, Zhao Dan suddenly discovered that there are already a lot of people in this world who want to die by themselves, so the necessary protection is also indispensable.

But this is not surprising, after all, now Zhao State, as the number one power in the world, has firmly suppressed all countries, and it can be said that there is already the feeling that Qin State was the enemy of the whole world.

Under such circumstances, those who want Zhao Dan to die may be able to line up from the east gate of Handan to the west gate.

As soon as he entered the camp of the Northern Army, the shouts of the whole day came to him.

Zhao Dan went all the way and found that most of the Zhao army was full of energy, and they were also well-trained when they practiced, and they already had the demeanor of an elite division.

Zhao Dan looked at all this, and couldn't help but stand at Lian Po and Lixin who were accompanying him: "Very good, the widow was originally worried that the past year would make the soldiers slack, but now I feel relieved when I look at the widow." ”

The new lieutenant general of the Northern Army, who was following Zhao Dan, replied very respectfully: "My lord, now the generals and soldiers in the army are all screaming, and they are looking forward to when they will be able to go out to fight." ”

Zhao Dan couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said to Ji Xin: "Let these warriors of the widow wait a little longer, the time for them to show their strength is coming soon." ”

While talking, they came to a camp in the camp of the Northern Army.

This camp is extremely heavily guarded, although it is located in the northern army camp, it is completely separated from the other camps in the northern army camp, and even has its own wall, which looks like an independent small kingdom.

Ji Xin pointed to the camp in front of him and smiled at Zhao Dan: "The king is a camp with armored cavalry this time. ”

The so-called armored cavalry is actually the heavy cavalry of Zhao State.

Because of the armor worn by these heavy cavalry, men and horses, they were also called armored cavalry.

Not to mention, this title spread quickly as soon as it was said.

Zhao Dan nodded, and walked into the camp of armored cavalry with Lian Po and Pang Xuan.

As soon as he walked in, Zhao Dan found that the camp was full of the sound of people shouting and neighing, and there were many armored cavalry arrays charging back and forth in the school field, which was extremely powerful.

Zhao Dan stopped next to the school field, watching a team of armored cavalry shouting loudly, holding spears and rushing in front of him, completely crushing all the obstacles in front of him effortlessly, he couldn't help but feel good, and smiled at the two ministers beside him: "Wu Xinjun and Pang Qing, in your opinion, how is the combat effectiveness of this armored cavalry?" ”

In fact, this armored cavalry was not the one that had been led by Li Mu in the war between Zhao and Yan before.

The armored cavalry led by Li Mu is under the command of the Northern Frontier Cavalry Corps of Zhao State, and the establishment of the armored cavalry in front of him is completely owned by the Northern Army of Zhao State, or the Central Army.

After all, no matter what, the Central Army is the core force that Zhao Dan relies on to conquer the world, so an ace unit like armored cavalry is obviously still to be given to the Central Army.

So now there are two armored cavalry, one is led by Li Mu in the northern border cavalry corps, and the other is in front of Zhao Dan.

After Lian Po looked at it carefully for a long time, he nodded and said, "Back to the king, in the opinion of the ministers, this armored cavalry has been extremely well trained, and it is time to send it to the battlefield." ”

Pang Xuan on the other side also nodded and agreed with Lian Po's opinion.

"Good." Zhao Dan saw that the two giants of the military had expressed their approval of the combat effectiveness of this newly built armored cavalry, so he didn't talk nonsense, and directly said to Ji Xin on the side: "Since this is the case, then General Ji Xin, you let this cavalry prepare to prepare and go north one day." ”

"This ......" Ji Xin couldn't help but be a little stunned when he heard this, you must know that this armored cavalry is the heart and soul of the Central Army of Zhao State, why did he get the border cavalry regiment all of a sudden?

Just when Ji Xin was stunned, Ji Xin's old boss and friend Pang Xuan suddenly coughed and said, "General Ji Xin still hasn't taken his life quickly?" ”

Ji Xin subconsciously looked up at Pang Xuan, but saw Pang Xuan's mysterious expression and blinked again and again, and then he came back to his senses.

Could it be that there is a war going on in the north?

As soon as he thought of this, the entanglement in Ji Xin's heart immediately dissipated, and he saluted Zhao Dan and said loudly: "Wow! ”

After leaving the camp, Zhao Dan said to Lian Po and Pang Xuan: "It seems that the widow has been able to use his morale now, and it is time to be able to conquer the outside world, I don't know what the two Qing families think?" ”

When Lian Po heard this, he immediately said: "The king is wise! ”

Pang Xuan also said: "The minister is willing to be the king's precursor and crusade against the rebels!" ”

Zhao Dan couldn't help but laugh as he looked at the two generals in front of him who were seeking to fight.

"Since this is the case, then it is convenient to convene the secretaries tomorrow to discuss this matter, it just so happens that the widow also thinks that it is time to expand the territory!"
