Chapter 109: Infantry Cavalry (Ask for Collection Recommendation)

After the number of professional soldiers was reduced to 2,400, the finances were no longer tight, and everything could be accelerated. But Shi Bin is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he wants to spend more money, in fact, the last thing he wants is to hide the wealth from the people.

The people are full, but he is hungry, although Ze is the county people, but it makes him feel aggrieved, what he wants most is to kill the soldiers and horses to Mobei.

Every day at home, he is engaged in infrastructure construction and economic development, and although he is still engaged in ordnance research, it makes this hot-blooded young man feel too boring. In his opinion, this pile of official documents is more comfortable if it is burned.

Shi Bin really didn't want to see those official documents anymore, those official documents were more troublesome than the exam papers, in his eyes, these were similar to the Book of Heaven, but he was forcing himself to read the Book of Heaven for the sake of his goal.

According to his own words, abusing power for personal gain is the most comfortable, being a corrupt official is the most comfortable, and a good official like him, who is "honest and honest" and "dedicated to serving the people", is too tasteless, and there is no sweet, sour, spicy, salty and fresh, and it is really impossible to describe the bitterness in it.

Anyway, Wang San and Liu Xiancheng are in charge of this civil matter, and he himself is not worried about going wrong, so he is too lazy to think about civil affairs, and instead thinks about the military.

In fact, he doesn't have to take care of the military, there is Xie Qiangbing in weapons research, and Li Chao in military training.

If he was at sea, he was actually a captain, not a specific operator, not even a helmsman.

Sitting at the desk in the study is absolutely impossible to think of such a utopian dream, but it is not appropriate to put down what you are doing and go to the martial arts arena, the weapons workshop or the horse farm.

It is even more inappropriate to call Wang San for everything, if you have to ask your subordinates for everything, then this chief seems too useless, not much better than a puppet.

So he decided to have another "micro-service private visit", but as soon as he changed into a set of old clothes, Jia Ling walked in with Sai Xishi, and said with a smile: "I said husband, where do you want to sneak away with this dress?" ”

Slide? This word can not be used well, I am not going to play, I am doing the right thing, how can I use it? was about to refute, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, and said with a smile: "Two ladies, you must know how tired you are for your husband. How about I go out for a walk or two? How about coming back in an hour? ”

Jia Ling and Sai Xishi whispered, Jia Ling thought that Shi Bin couldn't stop him if he wanted to leave, so it was better to sell his favor, as long as he came back on time.

Sai Xishi disagreed, and she thought that Shi Bin was "sure" planning to do something ugly, and she couldn't let it go.

Having said that, in fact, Sai Xishi still has a careful thought, Shi Bin was tied up the mountain by her to take her, if another woman hooked his soul, wouldn't there be more competition for favor in the family? So she thinks it must not be put down.

Jia Ling is so smart, how can she not see Sai Xishi's careful thoughts, but she is also happy to let Sai Xishi be this villain, anyway, she doesn't want Shi Bin to go out to hang out, but she can't hold him back for the time being, and she can't do it.

"Otherwise, aren't you afraid that I'll go out and do bad things? Then let Sai Xi Shi accompany me, maybe she can still help me... Shi Bin said with a smile.

"Good!" ("No!") Sai Xi Shi and Jia Ling expressed their attitude almost at the same time.

"How dare you take only her and not me?" Jia Ling walked up to Shi Bin with her stomach straight, first pointed at Sai Xishi and then at herself, and said angrily.

Knowing that the vinegar jar was smashed and the house was full of vinegar, Shi Bin immediately explained: "Xiaoling, aren't you pregnant?" How dare I take you out again? ”

Once the jealousy starts, it is not so easy to stop, and Sai Xishi also strongly emphasizes that Jia Ling is pregnant and not suitable for going out.

Seeing that the reasoning could not be said by the two of them, Jia Ling had no choice but to be angry again. Although he knew that this was Jia Ling's old trick, he still relied on her and said that he would not take Sai Xishi out of the house, after all, he was not afraid of 10,000 in case.

Since there was no staff officer, Shi Bin had no choice but to go to Li Chao, an expert in military training, for consultation.

As soon as he got on the main street and was about to go out of the city, he saw the sound of horses' hooves behind him getting closer and closer, thinking that it was another sneak attack by the Yuan people, and Shi Bin, who was afraid of being injured, immediately jumped away from his original position.

But as soon as he stood firm, he heard the neighing of horses and the laughter of a woman.

knew that this was Sai Xi Shi playing him, but he didn't want to reprimand Sai Xi Shi for this, so he just said softly: Don't make this kind of joke again.

"What are you going to do when you just sneak out? Knowing you're not doing something bad, but it's certainly not an easy thing to do. ”

It seems that his two wives are powerful people, and they will be noticed if they are a little abnormal, or they really can't let go.

No wonder some people say that marriage is a fetter, Shi Bin couldn't help but think that he had put two locks on himself, and they were high-level locks, and smiled bitterly.

"Xi Shi, I just wanted to see military matters, and I didn't think about anything else."

"Wouldn't it be okay to call Li Chao to come, do you want to add Zhao Gang or Wang San again? Say, there must be other considerations, don't try to hide it from me. Sai Xi Shi said confidently.

Anyway, it's not a big deal, so he expressed his concerns, and after hearing this, Sai Xishi agreed with Shi Bin's idea very much, expressed his support, and was willing to be his staff officer.

"Then let's go to the martial arts arena for the reason of patrolling and see what the soldiers will lack now." Sai Xi Shi said with a smile.

Sure enough, it was a female bandit, and in a blink of an eye, an idea and an excuse came, Shi Bin shook his head with a smile.

The two rode to the martial arts arena, and saw that the soldiers in the field were all in good spirits and high morale, Shi Bin was very satisfied, but he did not alarm the soldiers among them, just found a secluded place to sit, and ordered the guards to call Li Chao over.

Seeing Sai Xishi, a female bandit, coming over with Shi Bin, it made Li Chao, a former water bandit, a little surprised.

"Big brother, you are... Why is my sister-in-law here too? Li Chao asked.

"It's okay, I wanted to go out for a walk, but she found out, in fact, I didn't plan to come to you, but she wanted to come, so I had to bring it." Shi Bin said helplessly.

Li Chao said that Shi Bin came just in time, he just thought of a problem, a problem that must be solved: the soldier still can't ride a horse, even if he can have a tiger squat cannon and Shi Bin gun to kill, it can be regarded as a great improvement in maneuverability, but two legs can't run four legs after all, and the people can only defend passively and cannot carry out active attack against the Qiyuan people.

Shi Bin had thought about this for a long time, but at that time, he didn't even have a horse, and there was still a lot of civil affairs work waiting for him to do as the county order, so he left it behind.

"Asked Zhao Gang, is this horse breeder? See what he can do. Said Seish.

"I sent someone to ask a long time ago, but my people were scolded back, saying that they couldn't beat his horse's idea, even if you go, big brother." Li Chao said with a sad face.

knew that although Zhao Gang was irritable, he was not unreasonable, and he must have been under too much pressure to say such insignificant words.

"In that case, then follow me to the horse farm first, and put down the work here." Shi Bin said to Li Chao.

As soon as he saw Shi Bin and Li Chao, Zhao Gang immediately looked unkind, looking like he wanted to bite Li Chao to death, but seeing that they were still followed by Sai Xishi, his sister-in-law, Zhao Gang could only suppress his anger and turn his anger into laughter.

"What are you doing here, big brother? The brother was just about to go to the city to report to the eldest brother about the situation of the horse farm. Zhao Gang took a step forward and spoke before Li Chao could speak.

"What's the situation?" Knowing that this was Zhao Gang preparing to complain, Shi Bin also asked if he wanted to know.

"The situation is also simple, there is not enough silver." Zhao Gang said with a smile.

"Not enough? I have already allocated you the standard of supply for one horse and two soldiers, how can it not be enough? Shi Bin said angrily.

According to Shi Bin's idea, he raised horses in order to train a highly mobile firearms unit of his own, and now he has only raised less than fifty horses and is crying poor, what is this?

With a wave of his hand, Burigood ran to Zhao Gang's side, and Zhao Gang said to him: "Just tell the eldest brother why we cry poor, Burigood." ”

"My lord, the cost of raising horses is far from as simple as you think. Horses don't just have to eat grass, strong horses must eat well, military horses must eat better, ordinary horses can't go to the battlefield at all. Burigood patiently explained.

Then he calculated the account for Shi Bin, saying that the monthly cost of a horse is 2 yuan and 225 yuan (if 1 yuan is equal to 1RMB, then the cost of raising a strong horse for a month will be 2225 RMB), and the cost of raising a horse alone in a year will reach 27 yuan.

This data immediately surprised Shi Bin, and at the same time understood why Zhao Gang's attitude towards Li Chao was so rude and unreasonable.

This really doesn't make sense, if the dozens of horses he worked so hard to raise were ruined by those people under Li Chao who didn't know anything about horses, it is estimated that Zhao Gang would even tear the hearts of Li Chao and his subordinates.

But you can't waste food because of choking, since you must be useful if you raise a horse, you can't raise it in vain, so it will be a big loss.

Is it just to keep a mount as a few chiefs, as a big man, and talk about pomp?

Shi Bin absolutely hates this ridiculous attitude, he is a guy who is quite good at economics, deeply influenced by capitalism, and pays attention to "maximizing profits without violating legal morality".

It's such a nuisance, and a few people standing on this horse farm don't know what to say.

In fact, Shi Bin really wanted to demolish this horse farm, or become a horse seller, but unfortunately these two roads are impossible.

If it is demolished, the previous investment will be all in vain, not only the investment will fail, but also a huge blow to its own prestige;

Selling horses is just a good dream, but there are not so many pastures for grazing in the south, everything has to be done manually, and the cost is not known how much higher, so a feasible way must be found.

"Big brother, what is your original intention of raising horses?" Li Chao asked suddenly.

"Of course it's against the Yuanren!" Hearing Li Chao ask such a mentally retarded question, he was really uncomfortable, and he also amplified his voice.

"Then what is the basis of this confrontation with the Yuanren? What are we missing? Li Chao asked again.

Isn't this nonsense? There's still a lack of horses.

Seeing that Shi Bin was still confused, Li Chao no longer guided, and said directly: "Big brother, if we get a horse, what is the first step?" Is it just trained as a cavalry, ready to go north to fight at any time? ”

Of course not, this is known to everyone, and the first thing is to ask his soldiers to learn to ride horses.

"You mean to let the soldiers learn to ride horses first?" Shi Bin asked suspiciously.

Li Chao nodded with a smile, "Big brother, we can make a plan for soldiers to learn to ride horses." Even if we don't have a horse in the future, we can use it once we grab it, so we won't let those guys fall off their horses and make a big joke! ”

These words were like an initiation that made Shi Bin suddenly awaken, yes, why bother with cavalry, can't the infantry cavalry?

With this idea, he immediately ordered Li Chao and Zhao Gang to resolutely implement it, otherwise they would be punished for violating the military order.

Zhao Gang wanted to talk about the conditions again, but as soon as the military order came out, he could only shut up, after all, practicing horseback riding like this would not cause much harm.

Be careful, as long as you take care of it, it is a kind of exercise for the horses.
