After all, Malone was old in the military, and after a little thought, he thought of more, and couldn't help but ask worriedly: "Can't even the Su Guards rely on?" ”

Sima Shu nodded helplessly.

The prince's guard is the guard, and the guard is the elite selected from the forbidden army, and it was no longer the same when Sima Shu took over. The talented people in the army cannot be reused, and the meritorious soldiers are not rewarded, and the elite who destroyed Wu and Shu became the watchdogs of the gate lord clan, and it took only more than ten years to destroy Wu and unify them, and even the central Praetorian Guard, which was the most trusted by the imperial court, was also rotten, not to mention the army of the county soldiers and government soldiers.

After Sima Shu took over, he cleaned up a horse with various excuses to slightly let the prince's protector regain some of its former majesty, but there is still a long way to go from being able to fight elite!

The feudal soldiers are even more like bandits, and they only know how to scrape the ground and pump oil and water wherever they pass, and they have already won the essence of the people! In a military town like Feng Yi, most of the garrisons are old and unbearable. During his inspection, Sima Shu found that there were even gray-haired old men in the army, and even the weapons were unstable at such an age, let alone fighting! When he came to Guanzhong to inspect a circle, Sima Shu's heart was half cold, how could such a person achieve his goal?

Therefore, the selection of generals and the training of troops have become the most important thing.

Before that, he woke up these unbearable waste troops in the encirclement and suppression of the traitors, and then reorganized the army from the beginning. Ma Long broke Xianbei from the selection of soldiers and began to train into an army to fight, and it can be seen that Ma Long has a set of training soldiers, which can be described as the most suitable candidate!

"It is dangerous to use such soldiers to encircle and suppress the enemy, so it must be dispatched by an experienced person, and this time I came here to bother the army to come forward and serve as the commander for the time being!"

Deng Ai's lesson was in front of him, Yang Cheng immediately became nervous and looked at the military candidate Ma Long, Ma Long glared at him and pressed back the words that Yang Cheng had put in his mouth, and said with a smile: "Thanks to His Royal Highness the Prince, the ministers will do their best!" ”

Sima Shu also saw Yang Cheng's unnatural expression, and said through his mouth: "After this battle, all the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong will carry out a reorganization, and I intend to re-implement the old law of the Qin State in Guanzhong, don't leak it out, otherwise you won't be able to spare you if you mess up before the battle is fought!" ”

"No!"

Yang Cheng and Ma Long's hearts shook!

There are seven Warring States, but Qin is the strongest! People call the Qin army the division of tigers and wolves, and its bears are fierce because of the military merit system implemented by the Qin State! In this way, as long as the army has talent, it will definitely be able to show its prominence!

If what Sima Shu said is true, then the opportunity for the Pingxi Army has come!

This time, the counterinsurgency did not send another forbidden army into the customs, only the prince's escort army accompanied him. Although the prince's guard army is also the elite of the Praetorian Guard, it has not experienced a battle formation for a long time, and only the Pingxi Army has maintained its original combat effectiveness in Guanzhong.

Such an opportunity is certainly worth the gamble! Although Yang Cheng complained, in the face of such an opportunity, he couldn't help but give birth to a lot of parasitic wings.

If what Sima Shu said can be done, what if it is a gamble? Yang Cheng couldn't help but think of what Ma Long once persuaded: "Although most of the clan is straw bales, there are always a few people in the clan who are sober-minded!" Although the crisis of the Great Jin is heavy, it is not without opportunities for prosperity! ”

At this moment, Qi Wannian is also inviting the Qiang tribes to meet in Tianshui.

The rare Qiang and the Gongtang Qiang are of the same origin, and both lived in the Huangshui Valley, that is, near Xiping County during the Han Dynasty. Due to the continuous expansion and expansion of the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty was constantly attacked by the Han army, and many tribesmen were forced to surrender and become mercenaries in the Han Dynasty. Gong Tang Qiang is the first group of rare Qiang people who defected to the Han Dynasty, because its chieftain is called Gong Tang, so this tribe is also called Gong Tang Department by the Han Dynasty. After Gong Tangqiang defected to the Han Dynasty, he was rewarded by the pastures of the Malan River Basin in the hinterland of Guanzhong, and gradually multiplied and became stronger, and then rebelled, and continued to collect the Xiqiang tribe that was defeated by the Han army. When the ancestors of the Tang Dynasty led their troops to take refuge in the Gongtang Qiang people during the Yonghe period of Emperor Yonghe of Han Shun, they became part of the Beidi Hu. Because the ancestors of the Tang Dynasty were the orthodox Qiang chiefs of rare species, they were particularly supported by the powerful Gongtang tribe, and with these two tribes as the core, a loose alliance of Qiangs in the north headed by Gongtang Qiang was gradually formed.

When the Tang Dynasty also had thousands of troops, the strength was not inferior to Gong Geng, but the rare species had the ancestral training of surrendering to the Gong and Tang Clans since they moved eastward, so when Tang Cai has always served Gong Geng, it does not mean that he has no ambition to dominate the north. Especially the old and incompetent Gong Geng brothers, which made Dang Tang feel that only he was worthy of being the king of Dongqiang. As for Hao San and Hao Duyuan, who were born as homeless, they didn't have a good impression of Tang. Gong Geng's weakness and obedience to the Hao brothers' words and deeds made Dang Tang despise him even more. This time, Gong was captured, and Tang suddenly felt that the opportunity for his rise was finally coming.

When Ge "invited" Fu Fu, the dock master of the Fu family, Tang was very happy, he carefully interrogated the details of Gong Geng's arrest, and Fu Fu did not hide anything. When Tang listened to it, the more excited he became, and he only felt that Gong Geng's stupid behavior was really as he expected. After Fu Fu finished speaking, when Tang respectfully asked his subordinates to offer a roast whole sheep and invited Fu Fu to eat, he did not mean to let Fu Fu go.

Although Fu Fu has lived in the north for a long time and likes to eat mutton, he is very disgusted with the Qiang people's meat full of dirt and cow dung. However, he also knew that the Qiang people had a strong sense of self-esteem, and if they didn't pretend to like it, they would cause displeasure, so he had to tear off a piece of mutton, close his eyes and chew it.

"This mutton is really authentic, when King Tang is so entertained, Fu will give it to him with silk and satin cloth after he goes back." Fu Fu glanced at Dang Tang and secretly thought about this excuse to get out. Unexpectedly, when Tang smiled and said: "Don't bother Fu Gongzi, I will naturally go back to Niyang City to get what I want, just like letting Fu Gongzi stay with me and be a witness." In the future, if I go to Luoyang and Chang'an, I can also promote the strength of my rare Qiang people. ”

Fu Shi almost choked on a mouthful of mutton tendon, and said hurriedly: "What, the king wants me to stay here?" ”

When Tang nodded and said, "Yes, I want to take Fu Gongzi to capture Niyang together." After rescuing Gong Geng, please ask Fu Gongzi to form an alliance with my rare seed department. The Gongtang Department no longer has the strength of the leader Dongqiang, and the only one who can form an alliance with a Jin high-ranking sect like the Fu family is my Rare Seed Department. ”

Fu Fu hurriedly said: "As long as the king of Tang can subdue Dongqiang, his strength surpasses Gong Geng." Fu will write to the fathers and ancestors in the court, asking them to be the emperor and make the king the captain of Xirong. Belch...... It's not impossible to be a general who protects Qiang Rong, ......"

When Tang's eyes showed a strange brilliance, he suddenly laughed and said: "My own people are the leaders of my own Han officials, and this kind of honor is now only enjoyed by the Huns." Haha, Fu Gongzi, you won't fool me. ”
