Winter has gone to spring, and in the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed since the last battle to defend the city, the earth has begun to warm up, and the time for spring plowing has arrived.

In this month, the Snow Dragon Army can be said to be famous, with only 2,000 soldiers and horses, defeating the 10,000 army of Hu State and Wang Ze's 10,000 army respectively.

This battle has made all the princes boastful, although there is a trick, and the combat power of the Han army is low, but it is also a symbol of strength, they sent people to recruit An Qin during this time.

Qin Dali politely refused one by one, he didn't want the Snow Dragon Army to become a weapon in the hands of others.

In the battle to defend the city, the name of the military advisor Su Mingda is also well known to the world.

At the same time, the battle of the princes of all sides has also temporarily entered the stage of truce, and now it is an important moment for spring ploughing, in order to have enough food for the army in the coming year, both sides have chosen a truce, so that the people under their rule can cultivate in peace.

Taking advantage of this time, Qin Dali made a new adjustment to his military strength, after all, he captured 5,000 military horses from Wang Ze, as well as 2,000 soldiers and horses from the Hu people, so he could better expand his combat strength.

The first is the Tempest Battalion, which has increased from the original 500 people to 1,000 people, all using the war horses captured by the Hu people, the main general is still Ma Xiaoniu, and a deputy general Hua Wenshan has been added, Hua Wenshan was originally the commander of the 500 cavalry under Cao Fang, and after they surrendered, they were recommended by Cao Fang to take the position.

Then came the Agni Battalion, the number of three hundred heavy armor soldiers increased to one thousand, and the main general was no longer Ding Liao, but Zhao Dahu, and everyone's heavy armor was complete.

The Heavenly Wolf Battalion, the main general Wang Dachuan, and the deputy general Peng Xing, were the captains selected from the Snow Dragon Guard, and the deputy general Lian Ding was promoted in the later stage.

The Sky Wolf Battalion, which was originally the largest in number, added another 1,800 people in this adjustment, a full 3,000 Sky Wolf Battalion soldiers, divided into 1,000 sword armor soldiers, 1,000 spearmen, and 1,000 archers.

Xue Longwei still kept the same hundred people, Qin Dali chose the opportunity to choose, and the detective camp was arranged by the military advisor himself, and finally reported to Qin Dali.

The Zhanfeng battalion, the main general Xu Miaozhu, also increased to three hundred, and they were temporarily divided into the ranks of light cavalry, temporarily using the war horses of the Han army.

For the rest of the people, Qin Dali newly formed the Tiger Battalion, which was led by the veteran Cao Fang, and set up Luo Shi, the deputy general of the Snow Dragon Guard, to command 2,000 soldiers and horses, and the Tiger Battalion was also a sword and armor soldier, mainly responsible for the training of recruits and the transportation of logistics grain and grass and other materials.

Since then, all the Han troops have been distributed, except for the 2,000 Hu people left, all of whom entered the original Dead Heart Battalion, with Ding Liao as the main general, and the Dead Heart Battalion was renamed the Iron Fist Battalion.

It is worth mentioning that Li Yuan, a prisoner, was also thrown to the Iron Fist Camp by Qin Dali and underwent inhumane training.

The Iron Fist Battalion, the original Death Heart Battalion, was actually its main member who was a felony in the cell of Hefeng Town.

When Qin Dali and the others just captured Xiahefeng Town, they released a lot of people in the cell, but some of the felons who committed crimes, Qin Dali gathered them all together, conducted personal training, and turned them all into dead soldiers.

Now, the two thousand Hu people are also becoming dead soldiers step by step.

At the same time, Qin vigorously adapted measures to local conditions, built two new fortresses on the east and west sides, built Handong Pass about 20 miles away from the east city gate, and established Zhenxi Pass about 15 miles away from the west city gate, both of which were garrisoned by the Heavenly Wolf Battalion.

Hefeng Town is already small, and now Qin Dali has tens of thousands of troops under him, which is not suitable for living in the city, so the basic army is stationed near the two passes.

In the distance between the fortress and the city gate, Qin Dali sent the army to open up a large amount of land to grow grain and solve the food problem of the army and the people in the city in the future.

At this time, it was near Handong Pass.

A large group of men wearing a thin piece of clothing on their upper bodies were working diligently.

And in this group of men, from time to time, people handed them water to drink, and even some bold women took out handkerchiefs with red faces to wipe the sweat off their heads.

"Brother Cao, how is it? How have you felt these days? Qin Dali put down the farm tools in his hand and said to Cao Fang beside him.

Cao Fang said with a smile: "Lord, this period of time is the most comfortable day I have ever lived, the army loves the people, the people love the army, I have never been in contact with such a day, this place is like a paradise." ”

"It would be nice if the whole Han could do this."

"Thank you, Mrs. Sister-in-law." Qin Dali took the water handed over by Cao Fang's wife at this time and said: "Yes, if there is no war, we can marry wives and have children like the people, and live a plain life, how good it is." ”

"Lord, you must not have such thoughts, I believe that the lord will definitely do something, if the lord is ...... That is the happiness of the people of the world. Cao Fang Lian said.

In fact, that day, what Su Mingda said to Cao Fang was that he had already sent someone to pick up Cao Fang's family, and Cao Fang had no choice but to surrender.

thought that his family had just come out of the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den, but he knew that the Snow Dragon Army not only did not embarrass his family, but also did not restrict their freedom, and left as soon as he wanted.

Cao Fang thought about it, so he stayed, he wanted to see what this Snow Dragon Army relied on to make the people love the army, but now that he knew, people didn't want to leave.

"Haha, Brother Cao, I'll do my best." Qin Dali said with a pointed laugh.

At this moment, a snow dragon guard hurriedly ran over.

"Report ......"

"Report to the lord, General Peng is here to report, there is a female general from outside Handong Guan, and I want to see you."

Hearing this, Qin Dali frowned.

"Female general? Where did the female generals come from? ”

"General Peng said that this person was dressed in red and iron armor, carrying a spear, and claimed to be the commander of the Red Turban Army."

"Oh? Commander of the Red Turban Army? Interesting, go tell Peng Xing and bring that female general here. ”

"Yes, my lord."

Seeing that Xue Longwei went to convey the order, Qin Dali turned his head to Cao Fang and said, "Brother Cao, let's go and meet this female general together." ”

Cao Fang hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "Lord, this Red Turban Army should not be underestimated, I heard when I was in the Han camp that Wang Ze suffered in her hands several times, and they were like ghosts, and they disappeared as soon as they entered the mountain. ”

"And it is said that the leader of the other party is the descendant of the Yang family of the previous dynasty, the Yang family is a loyal martyr, and the Yang family's marksmanship is extremely sharp, the lord must be careful to deal with it."

Qin Dali nodded when he heard this: "I know, I'm just curious about what the Red Turban Army is here for?" We've never been in contact with each other, so she still wants to form an alliance. ”

It's not that Qin Dali looks down on the Red Turban Army, it's just that the Red Turban Army doesn't have a fixed territory, and they run around the mountains every day, if the two sides form an alliance, Qin Dali can't find them at all when he needs them.
