"Haha, General Qin is really good! Li admires"

"Team Li is also very skilled! Qin also admired it very much! ”

Qin Cheng and Li Hu looked at each other and laughed, both with pity in their eyes.

The two of them fought for a long time, from the long knife to the bare hands, and in the end they couldn't tell the winner, and in the end, the two of them were not strong enough to stop.

"It's really rare for General Qin to have such skills at such an age, originally Li thought that no matter how much experience he had in dealing with the enemy, he was more experienced than General Qin, but he didn't expect to fail to win against General Qin. I really want to say, but this time it was Li who lost. It is estimated that it is rare to meet an opponent who can compete with him, Li Hu is happy in his heart, and he is talking a lot more boldly at this time.

Qin Cheng smiled secretly in his heart, I have lived two lifetimes, and I have experienced no less battles than you.

"It doesn't make sense for Team Li to say this, victory or defeat is only about strength, experience is also a kind of strength, the enemy on the battlefield doesn't care how old you are and how much experience you have, only how strong you are." Qin Cheng said with a smile, "Strength is the last word!" ”

"That's it! It's over the hand, it's over and it's not over to be humble, is it possible that you have to divide it even here? Li Guang stood up, waved his hand impatiently, and said to Qin Cheng: "Qin Lang, come with me, I have something to discuss with you." ”

After that, he said to Li Dang: "Since everyone is interested in doing it today, you will have two hands with Le Yi, and see if your kung fu has improved." ”

"No." Li Dang and Le Yi hugged their fists one after another.

Li Hu and Le Yi's kung fu present are excellent, this is what Li Guang knows, Li Dang is always the result of being taught a hard lesson when he learns from these two people all day long, and now seeing Le Yi, although Li Guang is not very clear about Le Yi's martial arts, but he does know that Le Yi's two major battles have a good number of beheadings, and he can also be regarded as a leader in the army.

It's just that Li Guang, who turned around and entered the house, didn't know that Li Dang and Le Yi had only been fighting for a while, and Li Dang lay on the ground and thought angrily: Damn, no matter how Lao Tzu is Li Guang's son, is he really so bad? Can anyone beat me?

If Li Guang saw this scene, I don't know if he would kick this unlucky son out of the yard.

So not long after Li Guang and Qin Cheng entered the house, the exchange between Li Dang and Le Yi turned into a competition between Le Yi and Liu Mu, and even Li Hu couldn't help but have a good hand with Le Yi.

If Le Yi's knife skills and hand-to-hand combat have impressed Liu Mu and Li Hu, then when Liu Mu and Li Hu saw Le Yi's amazing archery skills, the two of them could only sigh with admiration.

Qin Cheng and Li Guang entered the house, and they sat separately as hosts and guests, Li Guang asked people to serve tea, and then said to Qin Cheng: "You left the barracks after the victory of the army a few days ago, and you haven't had time to talk to you about many affairs. Today, we will take this opportunity to talk. ”

"General, please." Qin Cheng is so tidy.

"In the past few days, I have repeatedly pondered the circumstances of my expedition and come to a conclusion: the reason for this victory is only one part of the factors that anticipate the enemy, but in fact the key lies in surprise. Whether you lead a light horse to run thousands of miles into the desert, or a heavy horse is invincible, although strictly speaking, the light ride has not yet been completed, and the heavy ride is just a song, but it is because of this. After this battle, it will no longer be a secret that we will wait for the situation of light and heavy horses, and it will be difficult to surprise them next time. Therefore, how to deal with the next invasion of the Huns is exactly what I want to discuss with you. ”

Qin Cheng touched his chin, and after listening to General Li Guang's words, he said the plan he had already had in his heart at this time: "The light cavalry and heavy cavalry were originally built to restrain the Huns, if the combat strength is great, there is no need to worry about anything, and the reason why I am distressed now is because the number of light cavalry and heavy cavalry is too small, and the most important thing is that the armament cannot keep up, and the combat power has not been completed." So what I have to do next is to meet the requirements of the cavalry in terms of personnel and armaments. ”

When Qin Cheng said this, he deliberately stopped, and Li Guang immediately answered: "Soldiers are not a problem, after the beginning of spring, the soldiers can naturally be replenished, and there is no big problem in satisfying the seven thousand new horses." The problem is armament. Tens of thousands of cavalry, what Your Majesty can give us is only standard cavalry armaments, that is, light cavalry armaments, but there is still half of the heavy cavalry armaments, and there is no such standard armament in the army, how can we get it? ”

"What the general said is naturally the real situation of our current situation. But in reality, the situation is more dire than that. First of all, the standard armament of our Han cavalry cannot fully meet the requirements of light cavalry, not to mention anything else, only the ring head knife, which is what my light cavalry must equip. However, these problems can be solved. In addition to the ring-headed sword of the light cavalry, the Qin halberd of the heavy cavalry, and the armor of the war horse, other armaments can be provided by the imperial court. The heavy cavalry armor is enough for the heavy infantry armor, and the light cavalry armor only needs to be slightly improved, which I can do with the Shanggu military craftsmen. Therefore, the problem lies in the armaments that the imperial court cannot provide, such as the strong war horse, the ring head sword, the Qin halberd, and the war horse leather armor. These armaments need to be built by ourselves, and the creation of these armaments, in the final analysis, still requires money, as long as the money is enough, the armament will be there, and the iron cavalry will also be available. ”

After listening to Qin Cheng, Li Guang couldn't help but show a bitter face, "Isn't this just no money, if there is money, I still need to nag here?" ”

"There is always money, it depends on whether the general can take it or not." Qin Cheng seemed to be smiling.

"Oh? Tell me about it. ”

"Shanggu County has a tax every year, and if the imperial court can allow us to withhold a part of the tax, this money will also be available." Qincheng Road.

"It can't be!" When Li Guang heard this, he immediately denied it, and his tone was resolute, "Even if Your Majesty can give me a lot of support, even if Your Majesty allows me to act cheaply on the issue of developing cavalry in Shanggu County, it is impossible to allow us to withhold taxes." Taxation is the foundation of the country and cannot be moved. Not to mention that His Majesty will not agree, and the ministers of the court will not agree! So I don't have to wait for the idea of taxation. ”

"I see...... Qin Cheng suddenly realized, and the flesh on his face immediately became bitter, "If that's the case, then it's not easy to do." ”

"It's really not easy to do...... Li Guang groaned, thought for a while, but didn't come up with any way, then he looked at Qin Cheng, and suddenly slammed the table, only to startle Qin Cheng and almost jump up, and then shouted: "Okay, you Qin Cheng!" Don't you want Ben to drag you out and beat you with twenty sticks before you are willing to say everything in your heart? Dare to sell Guanzi in front of this general?! ”

Qin Cheng's performance was obviously to make Li Guang realize that it was absolutely impossible to meet the needs of armaments and financial expenses through ordinary means, and then deliberately whetted Li Guang's appetite, just so that Li Guang could accept Qin Cheng's next proposal. Qin Cheng did it so obviously, how could Li Guang not see it?

Qin Cheng smiled, "Since the general has seen through it, then I will say it." ”

"Come on!"

Qin Cheng walked out of the desk, approached Li Guang, whispered in his ear for a while, and then retreated with a smile.

Li Guang frowned, thought for a while, and finally slapped the desk, almost smashed the desk, and shouted: "Okay! Sure enough, it's a good way, and that's it! ”

"The general is wise." Qin Cheng stood aside and immediately saluted.

……

When Qin Cheng and Li Guang came to the courtyard again, there were already many more people in the courtyard, and these people were gathered together, cheering from time to time. Qin Cheng and Li Guang walked over to take a look, but there were two people fighting hand-to-hand in the field, and it seemed that the battle was quite fierce.

The two people who fought hand-to-hand in the field were Le Yi and Ji Zhu, and among the onlookers, in addition to Liu Mu and others, there were also Ma Dashan, the captain of the heavy cavalry, Li Xi, the deputy general of the three armies, and others.

It seems that the middle and senior generals of the army who are not on duty in the barracks today have all come to visit Li Guangfu.

When everyone saw Li Guang coming out, they clasped their fists one after another: "General! ”

Subsequently, in addition to Li Xi, other generals in the army who were below Qin Cheng also saluted Qin Cheng.

"General Qin!"

"The generals are so excited today, have you all come to the general to compete?" Li Guang and the people in Qin Cheng returned the salute and said with a smile, "In this case, Ben Jiang will set up a ring here today, you can wait for a good student to have a fight, and let Ben Jiang see if the martial arts you are waiting for have improved recently!" ”

"If you can compete with the general, the last general will definitely be willing!" Ma Dashan said in a loud voice.

"It's not big, it's not small!"

"Haha......"

"You're going to fight Ben?" Li Guanghao said coolly, "As long as you can win everyone present, Ben will give you this opportunity!" ”

"Good! The general's words count, and the last general will discuss with the generals! Ma Dashan laughed, causing the generals to laugh.

……

On that day, all the heavyweights of the Shanggu military camp gathered in the county guard's mansion, and they were first driven by Li Guang to learn some martial arts, and they sat on the side to admire. After he had finished ordering the people to change their clothes, he set up a feast for everyone.

"Today is not only the New Year, but also the great victory of our army, which is really a joy! The generals have shed a lot of blood and sweat for my Shanggu military camp on weekdays, which is why my Shanggu military camp is alone in the border county today. ”

Li Guang picked up the wine bottle, stood up, and raised his glass to the generals. Li Guang, who was not in the barracks, did not have a little shelf.

"We are all fortunate to be generals!"

The generals stood up together, raised their glasses and said loudly.

"!"

"!"

After drinking the first statue, Li Guang did not sit down immediately, but filled the second statue and said to everyone: "This statue, respect the warriors who died bravely on the battlefield, may he be a good man over there!" ”

Li Guang said this, although it was a simple sentence, but all the generals were moved, and the generals thought of their comrades in the past, and they couldn't help but feel sad in their hearts, because they drank the most solemn wine.

After drinking one, Li Guang filled himself up again, and his voice was loud: "The reason why this time I was able to win a big victory, I don't need to say much about the general, the generals also know the merits of General Qin, if there is no General Qin, there will be no such victory, this one, I am equal to General Qin!" ”

"General Qin, please!"

The planning of this war was completed by Qin Cheng and Li Guang, and then it was Qin Cheng's success in going deep into the desert that led to the victory of this expedition. Li Guang said that he respected Qin Cheng, and the generals couldn't help but think of the complaints and doubts that everyone had about him when Qin Cheng ordered not to fight, and they couldn't help but feel ashamed, and they raised their glasses at the moment.

"Generals, please!"

Qin Cheng is not hypocritical, and as soon as he tilts his neck, he will do it first as a respect.
