"The last general meets the general!" After quickly rushing to the general's mansion, Peng Lin saluted Li Xin. "Excuse me! I called you here for an important matter, so sit down first! Li Xin was working on an official document, so he nodded at this time and said to him.

"Yes!" Peng Lin found a seat on the side and sat down, waiting for Li Xin to speak.

After a while, Li Xin finally finished the work at hand, then looked at him and said, "I want to form two pro-armies, do you know this matter!" ”

"I don't know, when did the general have this idea?" Peng Lin shook his head and said in surprise.

"After the last time I came back, I had the idea to call you back for this purpose! One of the two pro-armies is a heavily armed foot soldier, called the Unbroken Army! The other is a light and heavy cavalry, called the Wyvern! What I'm going to discuss with you now is the formation of this Wyvern! After a while, Wu Hui, the left attendant of the household department, will also come over, and this matter is also related to him! Li Xin said slowly.

"Well, that's a good thing! With the current status of a general, it is the proper duty to form a pro-army. "Peng Lin is also a pure general, so when I heard that we want to develop force, I naturally agree with it! As for whether it costs a lot of money, that's not his business.

"General, Wu will ask to see you!" As he spoke, a sound came from outside the door.

"Let him in!" Li Xin replied.

After a while, Wu Hui, the left attendant of the household department, walked in from outside, and after saluting according to the rules, he greeted Peng Lin again, and then sat down opposite Peng Lin.

"The matter of forming a pro-army is classified for the time being, and the purpose is to surprise the enemy in the future. Whether it is a flying dragon rider or a non-broken army, all the soldiers and generals are drawn from the current meritorious soldiers of the Huashan Army. The two pro-armies combined, the tentative number is 10,000! As for the shortage of garrisons in various places, they will be quickly replenished by the garrisons in various places, and the training will be strengthened by the generals in various places in order to restore their combat strength! Li Xin continued.

"General, it's easy to talk about the personnel, although the cavalry we formed before was only 3,000 people, but some of the backbone was drawn from it, and then some of the foot soldiers were transferred to join the cavalry, and the 5,000-person flying dragon cavalry could be successfully formed. Now the biggest problem is actually the horses, if the cavalry does not have horses, then everything is in vain! After Peng Lin heard this idea, he couldn't help but think for a while, and then frowned.

Cavalry cavalry is naturally a soldier on a mount, and this place in the north of Guanzhong is naturally a horseback. It's not like those places in the southeast, central and south, if you have the heart, you can also ride an elephant! In the western region of Liangzhou, you can also ride camels.

Since war horses are important strategic resources, no matter what the local forces are, it is impossible for the Huashan army to easily obtain them.

Now these cavalry of the Huashan Army, the source of their war horses is basically captured from Fu Qin. From the beginning of the rebellion against Fu Qin, to the complete elimination of Fu Qin not long ago, there are about 8,000 war horses in the hands of the Huashan Army now.

Don't look at these 8,000 horses, it seems to be a lot, in fact, if you eliminate all the old and weak war horses inside, there are only about 7,000 left to go to the battlefield. After all, how could the cavalry not be lost in the time of a big war.

Another is that in order to expand the cavalry, Fu Qin collected all the horses in the territory into the army, which was good or bad, and confiscated some horses used by the people for farm work. In this case, it is obviously impossible to build a Wyvern Ride.

In addition, if the army is expanded now, the cavalry will inevitably recover, and with the continuous expansion of the territory under the rule of the Huashan Army, the demand for war horses is greater. Just ordinary cavalry, Li Xin has decided to expand to 5,000 people, and the war horses needed for these cavalry are already enough.

In addition, with the expansion of the territory, the inconvenience of road connections and transportation, it is necessary to have some horses for communication in the hands of the garrisons and the government in each post station. In this way, the little war horse in his hand is not enough at all.

"I know that the problem of war horses has always been the biggest problem we have faced. I've called you two here for this purpose! Li Xin agreed.

"Doesn't the general already have an idea?" Peng Lin was surprised.

"Tomorrow~ you will set off for Qinzhou, and then go straight to the place where the Tuguhun and Qiang tribes live, and order them to join and sacrifice 10,000 horses. Among these horses, they must be young and strong, and some of them must be female, and after bringing them back, it should be enough for us to use them temporarily! In addition, I have decided to find a suitable place around Guanzhong and build a military horse farm, which will be placed under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War and be in charge of the breeding of war horses! Li Xin nodded, and then said.

"If this can be done, we will have a steady stream of war horses in the future, so that we don't have to look up to others anymore, it will be very beneficial for our strength to grow! It's just that we went to the door to ask for a horse like this, and the other party was afraid that they wouldn't give it! Maybe they'll kill us! Hearing this, Peng Lin was stunned for a moment, and then said with great joy. However, after being happy, he said with some worry.

After all, the Huashan Army did not have much friendship with those Tuguhun people, and if they wanted the other party to hand over the war horse that they regarded as their lives, they were afraid that it would provoke the other party's resistance.

"If you don't pay it, you have to pay it! After you arrive in Qinzhou, go to Xiangwu County to see Zhou Tong first, bring my military order, and he will respond to you later. At the beginning, we confronted Fu Qin, if it weren't for the support of these Tuguhun people and the Qiang tribes west of Qinzhou, how could Fu Qin get so many war horses and quickly recover the cavalry. Now that Fu Qin has been eliminated by us, it is not so easy for them to stay out of the matter. These 10,000 war horses are a sign of the sincerity of surrender and a punishment for supporting Fu Qin! As for the specific details, Wu Hui is a middle and high master, and the two of you have discussed it on the way! Regarding this concern, Li Xin sneered and said slowly.

He is not the kind of person who is bullied, since the other party helps Fu Qin to deal with him, he must be prepared to pay the price. Of course, this matter actually has a bit of the meaning of killing chickens and monkeys, and it is mainly done for many other forces around it.

Li Xin's purpose was to let the surrounding forces, whether it was the Hu people in the north, Liangzhou in the west, Yan Guo and Zhang Ping in the east, and Jiangzuo Chuanshu in the south, etc., all see the fate of their enemies.

In this case, if one day he has a dispute with one of these forces, the rest of the people will have to consider whether they want to help the other party. After all, this has to run the risk of being settled by him Li Xinqiu.

In addition, another consideration is because Tuguhun is relatively close to his own territory. Moreover, their strength is much worse than that of the Xiongnu and Xianbei and Daiguo in the north.

Persimmon picks and pinches softly, this kind of truth, Li Xin still understands it very well. If you can get a large number of war horses without sending troops, it will definitely be a great thing.

On the other hand, it is because the war horses on Tuguhun are very suitable for their own needs. These horses live south of Qinghai Lake and in the area around the headwaters of the Yellow River.

This place is already on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, so although the war horses produced here are not particularly tall, they have long-lasting endurance and can also bear weight.

In this respect, it is similar to the Yungui horse, and it is also similar to the Mongolian horse in the north. But the problem is that Yungui is under Jiang Zuo's control, and it is impossible for him to get the war horse, even if he buys it, he can't buy it.

Similarly, the war horse in the hands of the Hu people in the north is even more impossible for him to get. With that, he was left with only two options! One is the horses in the area where the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and Gansu meet, and the other is the horses from the Western Regions from Liangzhou.

On the Liangzhou side, he was not afraid that Zhang Zuo and the others would dare to stop his war horse. The problem is that Dawan horses are tall and very powerful, but they can't do it with endurance and weight. As for the other horses, the distance is too far to be brought over on a large scale!

Under so many factors, Tuguhun became the only choice. Therefore, even if it is in the form of intimidation, Li Xin plans to get a part of the war horse from the other party's hands.

As for sending Peng Lin and Wu Hui to go, there are also some considerations, on the one hand, because Peng Lin himself is a Qiang person, so it is naturally easier to communicate in that place. After all, among the Hu people in that area, the Qiang people also accounted for a large part.

And Wu will! He was born to do business, so if he is allowed to negotiate, he can always get the most things at the lowest price. If you can use your mouth, it is naturally the best, and now the Huashan Army is resting, and it is not appropriate to make a big move.

Of course, Li Xin can't explain the Tao to them in such detail, so he can only explain the task and let them do it!

Hearing these words that were almost robbed, Peng Lin and Wu Hui couldn't help but glance at each other, and they were actually a little inexplicably excited in their hearts. After all, if they go, they represent the Huashan Army!

It is just a good opportunity to take a look at the influence of the Huashan Army among the surrounding forces now, and besides, if you can establish a good friendship with those Hu people, it will also be a good thing!

"We understand, please rest assured that we will not fail in our mission and complete the task assigned by the general!" The two of them hurriedly stood up, and after receiving the order, they turned around and left.
