After the battle of Lao Ma Yuan, Qin Cheng knew that Wei Qing would find him sooner or later, so when the army issued an order that Wei Qing invited him to go on a safari, Qin Cheng did not feel any surprise. If he had to say something, Qin Cheng felt that although Wei Qing's methods were not very appropriate sometimes, there was no doubt that he would do his best for Liu Che.

When Qin Cheng followed the herald to the gate of Qiansang City, Wei Qing was already waiting for him here with two horsemen.

Reined in the war horse, Qin Cheng hugged his fist to Wei Qing and said: "General Wei is in good spirits, at this time, go hunting in Lao Ma Yuan, there are many animals, it is a good time!" ”

When Wei Qing saw Qin Cheng coming, a rare smile appeared on his face, and he didn't have anything to do with Qin Cheng, and said loudly: "When I was in Chang'an, I often followed His Majesty to hunt in Shanglin Yuan. Don't hide from Qin Shao, many affairs in the army, Your Majesty is in Shanglin Yuan to finalize with us. Ben Jiang has been inseparable from various affairs since he came to Qiansang City, but he has long wanted to appreciate the scenery of the northern grassland, presumably grassland hunting, compared with Chang'an, must have a different flavor. ”

Qin Cheng naturally understood the implicit meaning of Wei Qing's words, and said with a smile: "Since General Wei Yaxing is so high, how about making a big deal and doing his best for General Wei as a landlord?" ”

"That's great!" Wei Qing said with a smile, "Qin Shao, please!" ”

"General Wei, please!"

Wei Qing took the lead, Qin Cheng followed, followed by two cavalry guards, and galloped towards Lao Ma Yuan.

"Qin Shao, but I heard General Li say that this old horse is not peaceful." Approaching Lao Ma Yuan, Wei Qingdao.

"That's true." Qin Cheng nodded and said, "Lao Ma is originally located in the north of the upper valley, and further north is the Great Wall, the Huns often go south to graze horses outside the Great Wall, and the border forts are helpless against them." It was not uncommon for a small number of Huns to cross the Great Wall. ”

Wei Qing looked around on the horse and sighed: "The old horse plain pasture is so good, even many military horse pastures can't reach it, if you don't worry about the invasion of the Huns, this must be a top good pasture!" ”

Qin Cheng immediately looked to the north and said, "Here, sooner or later, a big horse farm will be built!" ”

Qin Cheng and Wei Qing immediately became old Ma Yuan, and it was here that Li Guang and Wei Qing watched the military exercise commanded by Qin Cheng yesterday.

"Without good horses, there are no elite cavalry. If the Han wanted to defeat the Hun cavalry, it was necessary to train enough excellent war horses. The speed of the Huns' dwarf horses is not fast, if the cavalry of our Han can be equipped with excellent war horses, they can completely press the Huns in terms of speed, so they will have a great advantage on the battlefield. Qin Cheng said seemingly casually, "I have heard people say that the sweat and blood of Dawan in the Western Regions is an extremely good horse breed, the horse is tall, the speed is extremely fast, it can travel 800 miles a day, and its endurance is no worse than that of the Huns." If one day our Han cavalry can assemble this kind of horse, the combat power will definitely increase greatly. ”

After listening to Qin Cheng's words, Wei Qing's face was a lot more solemn, it was the first time Wei Qing had heard of the sweat and blood of Dawan in the Western Regions, and it didn't look like Qin Cheng was a fool, and he couldn't help but be surprised in his heart, secretly wondering how could this Qin Cheng know so many things? "Qin Shaoshang is very knowledgeable, Wei Qing admires it, I don't know what this sweat and blood BMW said, Qin Shaoshang listened to who said, but seriously?"

"Uh...... I also occasionally see the saying of sweat and blood BMW, but I can be sure that Dawan does have this kind of BMW. If nothing else, when Lord Zhang Qian returns from his mission to the Western Regions, he will bring back the relevant news of this bloody BMW. Being asked by Wei Qing like this, Qin Cheng had to attribute the origin of the sweat and blood BMW to the essay in the essay book, and in order to increase the credibility of the existence of the sweat and blood BMW, Qin Cheng had to move Zhang Qian out as well.

"Oh......" Wei Qing nodded, thinking that Qin Cheng's knowledge was really not ordinary, "Speaking of Lord Zhang Qian, he went to the Western Regions seven years ago, and until now, there has been no news at all. His Majesty has not been less worried about this matter. ”

"It's a long way to go to the Western Regions, and it will be a long way to cross the border of the Xiongnu, so there will naturally be a lot of setbacks. However, I believe that Zhang Dajiren has his own natural appearance, and he will definitely come back in the future. "Qincheng Road.

"I hope so. If that day comes as soon as possible, the Han Dynasty will be able to fight the Xiongnu with the Yueshi Kingdom, and this battle will be much easier to fight. Wei Qingdao said.

"I hope so." Qin Cheng thought about it, but after all, he still didn't say that the Yue clan might not attack the Xiongnu.

The two talked for a while, and they were almost rested, Wei Qing said: "Qin Shaoshangzao, Your Excellency's knowledge will not be able to beat the horse, but I don't know if this equestrian and archery skills, Qin Shaoshangzao will also stabilize the general, how about we compare with the previous one?" ”

"Uh......" Qin Cheng secretly wiped his sweat, Wei Qing's words are right in Qincheng's weakness, if you want to talk about knowledge, Qin Cheng is confident that with the accumulation of his two lives, he really can't catch up with many people, but if you want to talk about this equestrian and archery, Qin Cheng can't compare to this Wei Qing no matter what, as long as it's not a test of equestrianism and archery, even if it's a test of knife skills and hand-to-hand combat, as long as it's not on the horse, Qin Cheng really won't be afraid of Wei Qing." The courage of General Wei, how can he not know that if he wants to compete, he will definitely be inferior to the general. However, since the general is interested, he will do his best to accompany him. ”

"Haha, good!" Wei Qing laughed heartily twice, just think that Qin Cheng is modest, if you want to say that the person who killed the left bone of the Huns, the force is not on the table, then there is a ghost, "Qin Shaoshang and Ben will go on a safari in this maple forest, and see which of us has more gains, how?" ”

"Be your companion below." Qin Cheng smiled bitterly.

"Haha!" Wei Qing laughed twice and slapped his horse forward, followed by Qin Cheng.

The two ran all the way to Lao Ma Yuan, and after a free conversation, the relationship between them has become a lot closer, and Wei Qing no longer looks like a boss, and he has opened up a lot between words.

The four of them entered the maple forest, rode their horses and whips, and shuttled through it, so unhappy.

"Qin Shao, this white fox will be unkind!" The four of them galloped for a while, and finally found their first prey. A fluffy and snow-white fox, probably frightened, suddenly jumped out of a bush and ran wildly. As everyone knows, it jumped out, directly exposing itself, and completely placing itself under the bows and arrows of everyone.

"Not necessarily!" Qin Cheng shouted, drew his bow and arrows, and did not intend to be humble at all.

Although he knew that his equestrian and archery skills were definitely not as good as Wei Qing's, but when it came to the point of competition, Qin Cheng would not flinch, and the arrogance in his heart was stimulated by Wei Qing's arrogance.

"Go!" Wei Qing and Qin Cheng accelerated towards the white fox, and when they were still twenty or thirty zhang away from it, the two of them opened their bows at the same time, and the four-edged iron arrows in their hands shot at the white fox in no particular order.

"Squeak!" The white fox screamed, and his body was shot by the iron arrow that flew quickly, and the huge impact of the iron arrow directly nailed the white fox to the root of a maple tree.

Two iron arrows, hit at the same time.

Wei Qing and Qin Cheng dismounted near the white fox, Wei Qing picked up the white fox who was out of breath first, laughed twice, and signaled to Qin Cheng: "Qin Shao, you can see clearly, Ben shot that arrow in the ear of this white fox, and your arrow shot on the white fox's buttocks, if you want to talk about the level, Ben will be slightly higher!" ”

Qin Cheng took the white fox and looked at it, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, where is this slightly higher, the archery skills of the two are clearly 108,000 miles apart, Qin Cheng can see clearly, his arrow can only be regarded as a barely shot, and Wei Qing's arrow shot at the head of the white fox, but the right ear goes in, the left ear goes out, and it doesn't hurt the white fox's fur at all! In other words, when this white fox is in the hands of Qin Cheng, it can be used as barbecue at most, and in the hands of Wei Qing, it can be taken to the city and sold for a good price.

"General Wei's arrow is indeed a miraculous skill, and I have to admire it." Qin Cheng smiled and returned the white fox to Wei Qing.

Wei Qing took the white fox, got on the war horse again, and smiled at Qin Cheng: "How about it, Qin Shao, let's compete again?" ”

"Of course!" Qin Cheng agreed without hesitation, and without waiting for Wei Qing to answer, he grabbed the horse's belly with his feet, and galloped out first.

"Huh! The dignified and the little is made, and it is even deceitful! Wei Qing laughed and led two guards to follow.

Four people on Pegasus, two people on a safari, it didn't take two hours to harvest a lot of prey, large and small hung with four people's war horses. Wei Qing's archery did open Qin Cheng's eyes, and for the first time he had a direct understanding of the superb archery skills of this era, in this era without guns, bows and arrows are the best personal long-range weapons, and the power that bows and arrows can exert in the hands of excellent archers in this era can be said to be no worse than the gunners of later generations.

Although Qin Cheng's archery skills are not as good as Wei Qing's, but there is no stage fright, during the hunt, he still shoots non-stop, sometimes he shoots the prey, sometimes he doesn't even touch the fur of the prey, at the beginning Wei Qing also made fun of Qin Cheng kindly, and later saw that Qin Cheng was extremely serious, and his archery skills had made some progress unconsciously, so he put away the mentality of joking. After more than two hours of hunting, Wei Qing has a better understanding of Qin Cheng's temperament, and Qin Cheng's demeanor makes Wei Qing feel ashamed while admiring it. Seeing Qin Cheng's persistence and seriousness in every arrow, Wei Qing was finally able to understand why Qin Cheng was able to have such profound knowledge with a cloth cloth.

It is true that some people's horizons and thoughts, including their later achievements, cannot be limited by birth.

Although, as far as Qin Cheng in front of him is concerned, Wei Qing's opinion is a bit wishful thinking.

It wasn't until the war horses of the four couldn't carry any more prey that the four of them came out of the maple forest and found a random place to rest, and by the way, they also solved the food in front of them. When Wei Qing followed Liu Che to hunt in Shanglin Yuan in Chang'an, he didn't bake his prey, and now he is familiar with it. The four of them gathered firewood, handled the prey, and slowly barbecued after a while.

"Today's safari, when it is really enjoyable, there are so many prey in this forest, it is really cheap, I wait, less to build, do you say yes or no?" Wei Qing chatted with Qin Cheng while roasting wild game, and after more than two hours of getting along, Wei Qing's name for Qin Cheng also underwent some slight changes, and he no longer called him Qin Shaoshangzao.

"In late autumn, these animals are busy looking for and storing food for the winter, and we never thought that today they have become our food, which is also considered the death of the birds." Qin Cheng said with a smile.

"Shao Shangzao said this thoroughly, but then again, the creatures in the world, who can escape the fate of birds dying for food, people live in the world, isn't it also for a stomach, many disputes, isn't it also because of this?" Wei Qing sighed slightly.

"How could General Wei sigh like this?" Qin Cheng said with a smile, "But General Wei's words are true, there is nothing else to ask for without food and clothing." ”

"Huh! Wei was rude and made Shaoshang laugh! Wei Qing was a little unnatural, as if he felt that he shouldn't have unintentionally given birth to this superfluous sigh, looked at Lao Ma Yuan, looked around, and said: "Yesterday's cavalry drill under the command of Shao Shangzao really opened Wei's eyes. Before this, Wei never thought that the cavalry could also be divided into light cavalry and heavy cavalry, and cooperate with each other on the battlefield. Shao Shang's move is like a stroke of genius, which is really admired by Wei. ”

Qin Cheng listened to Wei Qing's words, and thought to himself that the pre-drama had been going on for so long, and the main drama had finally come, so he said slowly: "Yesterday's military exercise was in a hurry, and many things were difficult to do thoroughly, if it weren't for this, the effect of the military exercise would be even more prominent." The role of light cavalry and heavy cavalry in coordination will also be more obvious. However, it is not appropriate to say that the terms light cavalry and heavy cavalry are not appropriate. ”

Since Wei Qing asked, Qin Cheng didn't want to hide these things, people spent so much effort to test their own reality today, and finally convinced that they did have real talents and real learning, and at the same time they had a relationship with themselves, wasn't it just for themselves to explain these things to him without reservation now?

Qin Cheng always doesn't mind speculating on others with the greatest malice first, although this will make his thinking too extreme sometimes, but this is much better than being stupid and unaware of being calculated by others or being sold by others and counting the money to others, especially when his situation is not optimistic, this kind of awareness is very necessary.

Of course, this doesn't mean that you have always set yourself completely against others.

"Oh? Can you elaborate on the lack of manufacturing? Wei Qing asked.

"In fact, it is more appropriate to call light cavalry and heavy cavalry. Because the difference between the two is not only in armor, but also in armament, but also in tactics. The light cavalry is lightly equipped, the advantage is in the speed, the main cavalry shoots on the battlefield, the heavy cavalry armor is heavy and strong, can block the bow and arrow, can resist the knife and slash, the weapons used are mainly lethal, the advantage is in the impact force, and the main trap on the battlefield. The two can be used together or separately. Cooperate with the battle, similar to yesterday; Separate battles, light cavalry can run long distances, straight into the territory of the Huns, fighting for days, just like the Huns in the territory of our Han Dynasty, even more powerful, heavy cavalry can be used to fight the main force of the Hun cavalry head-on, break the formation, and kill all sides in the military array. Qin Chengdao said very slowly and clearly, for fear that Wei Qing would not be able to accept this avant-garde tactical idea for a while.

Wei Qing listened to Qin Cheng's explanation, while bowing his head and pondering, after Qin Cheng finished speaking, Wei Qing still held his cheeks. In the middle of the sound, Wei Qing suddenly got startled, struck hard, and said, "Wonderful! It's wonderful! Say less, let Wei Qing Daigo be empowered. If there are 350,000 light and heavy cavalry in my Han army in the future, why worry that the Huns will not be destroyed?! ”

Qin Cheng smiled slightly, poured cold water on Wei Qing and said: "General Wei don't be excited, if you really want to build 350,000 light and heavy cavalry, the price you have to pay is astronomical." After all, if there is no cavalry, it is enough, and if there is, it must be elite! Otherwise, instead of making a contribution, it will become a disaster! ”

"Uh......" Wei Qing was reminded by Qin Cheng like this, thinking of all this, his emotions slowly calmed down, "What Shao Shangzao said is good, although the advantages of light and heavy infantry are prominent, but the disadvantages are equally prominent, and if they are not used well, there will be a situation where they will lift a stone and shoot themselves in the foot." After all, once the cavalry is divided into light and heavy cavalry, the original situation of extremely strong comprehensive strength will not exist, if the Huns grasp the weakness and break each one, it will be too late to regret it! ”

"Not bad." Qin Cheng nodded and said, "If the light and heavy cavalry is used well, it can be a big victory, and if it is not used well, it will be defeated, this is a double-edged sword, it depends on the person who uses the sword!" ”

As soon as Qin Cheng's words came out, Wei Qing was shocked suddenly, and said: "Your Majesty is the master of great talents, the Emperor of the Ages, and he will definitely be able to use this double-edged sword!" ”

"Your Majesty is eloquent, so categorically!" Qin Cheng made a form of worship.

Wei Qing calmed down his emotions and sorted out what Qin Cheng said today, so that he could go back to the city and record it carefully and report it to Liu Che.

"Shao Shangzao, in your opinion, to defeat the Huns, it really has to be cavalry?" After calming down for a while, Wei Qing asked tentatively.

Qin Cheng smiled dumbly, and couldn't help but secretly sigh in his heart that Wei Qing's caution was indeed too much, but he was responsible for Liu Che's grand strategy against Hungary in the future, and with his birth as a riding slave, it was reasonable to be cautious, so he said solemnly: "Not only must it be cavalry, but it must also be elite cavalry." ”

After a pause, Qin Cheng said again: "Actually, what General Wei has seen in the past two days has confirmed this very well, hasn't it?" Even if General Wei can ignore what he has seen in the past two days, the history of the founding of the Han Dynasty for sixty or seventy years is in front of him, and the reason why the Han Dynasty has always been in an absolutely inferior position in the war against Hungary is not only due to the influence of the policy of peace and proximity. ”

Wei Qing nodded solemnly, and suddenly saluted Qin Cheng, "Shao Shangzai has insightful ideas, and his thoughts are far-reaching, so that Wei Qing admires, please accept Wei Qing's salute!" ”

"General Wei is polite, this is like
