In terms of terrain, three-quarters of Khorasan was a plain suitable for cavalry operations. And more than half of the land in this plain is unsuitable for farming.

Despite this, cavalry was the most suitable type of military force for combat in Khorasan.

As for the remaining quarter of the mountainous area, although the role of cavalry will be weakened, it is mostly high mountain and snowy fields, and it is difficult for other troops to carry out large-scale operations there.

Therefore, in the army of Khorasan, cavalry accounted for eighty percent. And the light cavalry, which has a speed advantage, accounts for ninety percent of all cavalry.

"Da da da ······", the cavalry walked in unison, making a crisp echo on the concrete road. The envoy of the Delhi Sultanate on the stage looked at it dryly, and felt that his heart was about to suffocate.

No wonder he's so nervous!

Because the former Sultan of Delhi accidentally fell to his death on horseback, the new ruler succeeded to the throne on his own without informing Khorasan. At that time, the Ministry of Affairs sent the information from Delhi back to Khorasan, but unfortunately Li Chengji was leading a large army to return to Hexixia, so he had no time to take care of Delhi.

In this way, when the new Delhi Sultan Tak Uddin succeeded to the throne, it would be too late for Khorasan to intervene.

Now Gao Tai is the envoy of Delhi appointed by Tak Uddin! The first is to establish friendly bilateral relations with Khorasan, and the second is to congratulate Khorasan on the founding ceremony.

Of course, the former is far more important than the latter.

After all, not so long ago, Khorasan had been deniing entry to the envoys of the Delhi Sultanate.

And in the border areas, strict inspections have also begun. This made the booming border trade a big blow all at once. Although this has also had a great negative impact on the trade of Khorasan, from the perspective of national interests, the merchants can also understand.

And now it's not doing business with the Delhi Sultanate. To the south, on the Deccan plateau, there are many smaller countries. When they learned of Khorasan's power, they had already sent envoys to pay tribute to Khorasan. Especially those small countries that are close to Delhi have been bullied by Delhi in the past, and they are almost wiped out.

If it weren't for Khorasan West, who had broken the country of Delhi, they would no longer exist now. Therefore, for the foreign forces of Khorasan, they are very stuttering.

What's more, the maritime trade routes on the South Sea side have all been opened!

Khorasan's goods have the superiority of being ahead of their time, and they are not afraid of having nowhere to sell.

Therefore, a series of actions by Khorasan immediately caused tension in the country of Delhi. In the border areas, an increase in the army also began.

Sindh, as a border county, naturally maintained the military establishment of an ordinary county. For example, the border army has a scale of 20,000 people. Masang County, where the Tibetan general was stationed, also sent troops to the southern border, which was only a hundred kilometers away from the city of Delhi.

At this moment of tension, neither side dared to act rashly.

Delhi was afraid of offending Khorasan and causing a protracted border war. As a result, there is an internal struggle for power and profit, which leads to the instability of the throne. When the former Sultan of Delhi died, he had no heirs. There is no heir other than the princess who marries outside.

So strictly speaking, anyone can succeed to the throne of sultan.

The current Sultan Tak U-Din was originally a military general under the command of the former Sultan who had a heavy army. When the Sultan died unexpectedly and the throne was vacant. In the name of mourning, he rushed back to Delhi as soon as possible. He took control of the city's soldiers and horses, and used military means to force others to recognize him as Sultan.

Although the overall situation has been decided, there will still be people who risk their lives to seize the position of sultan if there is only a slight instability.

And Khorasan's side didn't dare to really make a big move.

The two consecutive years of conquest have hollowed out the foundation of Khorasan. Don't look at the fact that the treasury has so much income, in fact, it can't make ends meet. Like the four prefectures of the new Xia Kingdom, it is necessary to invest money and grain to restore local production.

There are also local garrisons, which also need money and food from the state treasury.

It's just that considering the long distance, they all spent money to buy them from the Xia Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom.

In this regard, Xia Guo didn't want to sell and didn't dare to refuse.

Because when the peace treaty was signed, Khorasan took this drawback into account and asked Xia Guo to agree. If not, Khorasan will have another excuse to go to war.

In addition, Huihe, Kipchak, and other places that have been seriously affected by the war are also the focus of Khorasan's financial allocation this year.

After successive battles, the soldiers of the army also need to reunite with their families and recuperate for a period of time. At the same time, after the disabled soldiers leave the army, the newly recruited soldiers must also be retrained. Although it is possible to speed up the training of recruits in the way that veterans lead recruits, it still takes time.

What's more, after a series of enclosing actions, Khorasan's internal affairs urgently need to be adjusted.

At present, Lee Seungji's focus is on dealing with internal maladministration, so that Khorasan's national body can better adapt to the multi-ethnic and cross-regional national conditions.

It would be too inappropriate to provoke again.

In this case, Khorasan allowed the emissaries of the state of Delhi to enter Khorasan under the pretext of participating in the founding ceremony.

Until now, Gao Tai has not had the opportunity to meet Li Chengji.

The Department of Foreign Affairs, which specializes in receiving foreign envoys, has also consistently turned away Gao Tai's mediation. This makes the already nervous Gao Tai even more unreassuring.

At this moment, seeing the endless stream of cavalry in Khorasan, his face naturally did not look good.

But his look was unnoticed.

All eyes were on the Khorasan army striding in front of the Crystal Palace. Especially after the light cavalry, the heavy armored cavalry followed.

The dark brown armor, the red robes. Coupled with a long-handled scimitar that doesn't look light, it makes people unconsciously hold their breath.

"It's not huh... The heavy cavalry of the Yuan Kingdom? Luo Shichang, the envoy of the Xia Kingdom, exclaimed. As a descendant of the Tang Empire, the party members are no strangers to the heavy armored cavalry. Even in the Xia Kingdom, there are also heavy cavalry.

It's just that the consumption of heavy armored cavalry is quite large, from horses to soldiers, all of them are carefully selected. After the great decline of the Xia Kingdom, it began to be unable to support the heavy armored cavalry.

Contrary to their state of mind, the people looked at the heavily armored cavalry, and only had an inexplicable confidence and pride.

Because this is the invincible and invincible Imperial army on the battlefield; The prestige of the Great Yuan Empire has also spread far and wide because of their victories again and again.

The Great Liao, Khorezm, and Ghul Empires, which once pressed on their heads, have now become counties under the rule of Khorasan. As citizens of their former homeland, they are only satisfied with the current life, and do not have a sense of nostalgia.

That's how it is in Yarubarda!

As a Malu man, he had been under Khorasan for three or four years. He used to be like a cow, busy from morning to night. But I just can't eat enough and can't wear warm clothes. Not to mention begging for a mother-in-law, a little wealthy.

If you ask him to go back four years ago, make another choice. He will definitely choose to flee to Puhua before the arrival of the Khorasan army. In that case, you can have a peaceful birthday earlier and ask your mother-in-law to have children.
