Tanshi Huai suddenly sneezed. Astonished his son and even a spirit,

He didn't know that his father sneezed abruptly because he was nagged by Suning, and he only felt that his father was blaming him for not doing things well.

It all started more than two months ago.

It was a good time for the grass to be fattened. My father didn't know how to get a few pieces of clothes that were said to be made of wool, and when he heard about it, he didn't believe it, how could wool be spun into clothes? If they could, why should they wear clothes made of animal skins? So he said something unpleasant in front of his father, but his father took out the clothes and threw them in his face.

As it turned out, the clothes weren't very sturdy and durable, and they were particularly warm. For the people who live in the bitter cold land of the north, it is simply a treasure. Thanks to this kind of clothing, it was made of wool, which they were accustomed to, and they knew nothing about it.

From then on, every time my father saw wool, he would babble something he was accustomed to. For example, the Immortal Heaven did not favor their tribe and did not give them this magical ability. This made Helian feel very dissatisfied. The creations of the Han Dynasty people are always more strange, and there is nothing to be surprised by for the steppe people, just as there should be no surprise in the appearance of wool.

But his father had a very different idea from him.

After several tribal lords discussed, Tanshi Huai actually made a bold plan. He wants to get this magical ability, and he wants all the prairie people to learn how to make this kind of clothes, so that they can survive the bitter cold of winter.

Therefore, he sent a team of more than 2,000 people to quietly infiltrate the territory of Liangzhou and kidnap all the Han Dynasty people who had mastered this magical skill.

However, the execution of his words did not go smoothly, and those who arrived in Liangzhou did not seem to have forgotten the purpose of their trip. At a time when wool could be exchanged for grain and even iron tools, these people finally couldn't hold it anymore and robbed several tribes that were escorting wool.

At first, they were also preparing to approach the Han Dynasty people who possessed that magical ability under the banner of escorting wool. But then they felt the benefits of food and iron tools, and prepared to do more business before that, so as to make the harvest of the trip more fulfilling.

However, the greed of these people was quickly punished as they deserved. Suning led a patchwork team, far from being elite, and it didn't take half a day to eliminate the cavalry that had infiltrated the territory of Liangzhou.

The news quickly reached nearby ears. Enraged, Tanshi Huai immediately sent an order to all the spies in Liangzhou, asking them to inquire about what happened to the captives, and as he expected, those people did not have the ability to keep secrets in the face of cruel punishment, and soon they confessed their origins to Dong Zhuo.

This can make my father become passive when he goes to Jinhua. Originally, he only wanted to invest a little bit of his troops and act quietly to get this magical skill, but he didn't expect to be discovered by the Han Dynasty government. In this way, I am afraid that a vicious battle will inevitably occur.

For this reason, Tanshi Huai formulated a basic strategy of preemptive strike, which is in line with the views of his son and Lian. After all, four years ago, the Xianbei army had defeated 30,000 Han troops. From then on, the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty became a place where they unscrupulously twinned.

He Lian has long been dissatisfied with this strategy of petty fighting and encroachment step by step, and he has long dreamed of the day when he can personally lead 100,000 elite horsemen south to destroy the Han Dynasty and sit on the throne of Luoyang.

Of course, he would not have thought that the reason why his father changed his original strategy of petty fighting was because he wanted to take the initiative in his own hands as much as possible, so that it would be the most beneficial to snatch that magical skill.

After all, Liangzhou merged with the state, and there had been no large-scale military operations for some time. If they can successfully play fast and slow, then they will have a head start.

Of course, as the most cunning old fox on the grassland, Tanshi Huai can't have only this one plan. If this surprise attack was not successful, then he could only mobilize the main force of the Xianbei tribe and fight with the Han Dynasty.

At present, the eastern tribes and the central tribes have begun to prepare, and the war will be launched by the western tribes first.

In order to cover this raid, his son and the company general personally led the headquarters and attacked Yanmen County. As long as the Han Dynasty's defenses were attracted to it, the attack on Liangzhou would likely be a great success.

At this time, the actual territory controlled by the Xianbei tribe exceeded that of the Roman Empire far to the west, but their military mobilization ability was not as strong as that of the Roman Empire. The main reason for this is that each tribe needs to leave enough manpower to prevent neighboring tribes from taking advantage of the opportunity to make trouble and seek annexation when the tribe's elite goes out to fight. Such things are commonplace in the steppe.

Therefore, although the Xianbei tribes have millions of free time. However, a maximum of two or three hundred thousand people can be mobilized for each war. If one considers that the production capacity of the raiding areas is relatively poor, and there are not enough supplies for these jackal beasts to plunder, then this figure needs to be further reduced.

After all these years of plundering, the middle and western sections of the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty can satisfy the greed and ambition of up to 100,000 Xianbei people, so the number of people mobilized this time will not be too large. Anyway, the financial situation of the Han Dynasty was deteriorating, and the troops that could be sent were very limited, and their border troops and deployment were also found out in the previous rhythm, so Tan Shihuai thought that the Han Dynasty only needed to prepare a large meal of 100,000 people.

However, the people of the Han Dynasty seem to have prepared according to the amount of 200,000 servings, but what Suning and others prepared was an empty plate, and what was to be held in it was their great military exploits.

After receiving the news from Yanmen County, Dong Zhuo always asked for help from the Xiaoting Imperial Court and Youzhou, and sent people to ask how much support Suning could provide to them.

Without saying a word, Suning drove Dong Zhuo's messenger back, and asked Dong Zhuo to immediately send scouts to sneak out of the Great Wall to reconnoiter the composition of his subordinates. If they come with their families and mouths, it means that they are not really here to fight, but are just indiscriminately creating military pressure.

Ten days later, Dong Zhuo's messenger came again. Claiming that Suning's guess was confirmed, and once again asked how many troops Suning could send.

Suning kicked the messenger back again, and this time he replied to the other party that the reinforcements to be sent in the direction of Bingzhou were still being trained, and it was difficult to say whether they could catch up with this war. At the same time, he asked Dong Zhuo to defend the defense line of Yanmen County, even if he stuffed his fat body into the city gate hole, he could not let the Xianbei Iron Cavalry break through the Great Wall.

After Dong Zhuo heard Suning's words, he immediately became boiling, and without saying a word, he rushed to the front line in person, replacing the old Yanmen Taishou Ye Wang. He also really went to the city gate hole, if it weren't for the large number of Han people living outside the city who fled and returned, he really wanted to block this city gate hole. Anyway, Xianbei people's engineering ability is really not on the table.

At the same time, the army that was preparing to go to Bingzhou to reinforce Dong Zhuo was also actively training.

U.S. Army General Arnold, was one of their training leaders. Ever since Suning summoned it in the order on the list, he had been sent to Captain Huqiang's army to be in charge of the daily training of all the soldiers.

Although this benevolent brother lived in the era of the proliferation of hot weapons, and did not have much understanding of the use of cold weapons, it still has many forward-looking suggestions for improving the physical fitness, combat skills, and survival skills of soldiers.

As for the use of cold weapons and the arrangement of battle formations under the condition of cold weapons, there is no need for him, a hot weapon element, to worry about it. The Spartan king of ancient Greece, Agesilau II, naturally taught them the essence of infantry phalanxes and defenses, and his predecessor, Leonidas II, was a generation of fierce generals who held off the 100,000 Persian legions at Thermopylae. Although the city-state had fallen by the time he ruled Sparta due to the Helot uprising, the Spartan heritage still shines through him.

Liangzhou Thorn Shi Liang Hu and Huqiang Captain Leng Zheng both handed over all the foot soldiers under their command to them for training. At the same time, they are constantly recruiting new terracotta warriors. Although the people of Liangzhou are known for their cavalry, there are still many poor people who can't get furs, so there is no shortage of infantry resources.

At the same time, Liang Hu also authorized Agesilao II to go to Lijing County on the western border of Liangzhou, from where he recruited Roman soldiers who had been displaced here during the Qin and Han dynasties.

Although Lijing County was under the rule of the Han Dynasty, it was basically a city of the Romans themselves. The residents who lived here were aware of the strength of the Han Dynasty, so they rarely violated the rules of the Han Dynasty. However, with the acquiescence of the Han Dynasty, they still retained the living habits of the Romans, and as a result, even the fierce fighting style of their ancestors was successfully inherited by them, and became even better with the support of the national policy of the Han Dynasty.

So when they heard that the Han court had recruited them to join the army, many people chose to sign up without hesitation. When they saw that the envoy sent by the Han Court turned out to be a Caucasian with the same high nose and deep eyes as them, the excitement became even more uncontrollable.

It's been a long time since they've seen anyone like themselves. So Agesilau II immediately became their guest of honor, and from the moment he walked through the city gates, almost every footprint was accompanied by endless applause and flowers. The Romans shocked the ancient Greek commander with their extravagant habits, but their enthusiasm also deeply moved the taciturn leader. Therefore, she simply abandoned the upper limit of the number of recruits given to him by the Liangzhou Assassin History, and as long as the Romans were willing to sign up, they could become his subordinates and participate in the operation against the northern barbarians.

The Romans, after all, lived on the same continent, and they knew how murderous the barbarians from the north were. With such a common understanding, Agosilau II did not need to make too much war propaganda.

The sturdy lads took up their shields and swords, and at once formed an orderly formation, and they dutifully walked out of the city gates, and marched in the direction of the rising sun under the gaze of their relatives and even lovers.

Waiting for them there is an enhanced version of the training. The warriors of Lijing had expected to go straight to the battlefield, but what they saw was an officer who claimed to be an American general.

They don't know where the United States is, but the general's arrogance and arrogance have given them a taste.

More than a dozen young strong guys couldn't get used to this general's style, and beat this guy up violently after dividing five by two. They knew they would be punished, but they couldn't stand it.

This kind of brave behavior was also welcomed by the local strong men in Liangzhou. They have long been disgusted with this guy, but they are subject to strict military law, and no one dares to stand up and resist.

But the decisiveness and bravery of these white brothers gave them great encouragement, not because of the so-called role models, but because the punishment they received was really enviable.

Punishment and envy seem to be a set of words that don't match well, but the truth is that under Suning's rule, anything that doesn't match well will become extremely harmonious.

The group of Roman soldiers who had beaten General Arnold immediately tied people into zongzi and brought them to Guan Yu by dividing them by two. Guan Yu flipped through the military code that Suning left behind when he left, and laughed when he looked at the corresponding articles on it.

Then a large pot of beef appeared in front of the dozen or so soldiers, and they were ordered to eliminate the beef and then go to the playground to complete some physical activities.

Beef can be said to be a rare delicacy. They frantically exercised their chewing muscles to clean up the large pot of beef, and then headed to the playground to do what seemed trivial to them.

However, things left them dumbfounded. These so-called sports activities are like a test of hell. The 20-inch 400-meter run alone made them unbearable, followed by obstacle jumping, crawling, sports shooting, simulated street fights and so on.

When General Arnold appeared in front of them with a green onion in his mouth and told them that the last event was a five-kilometer trail run. Most of them fainted immediately.

Few Romans were able to complete such training. However, the natives of Liangzhou, who had been watching their training from beginning to end, obviously did not agree with them. As long as you can eat beef, even if you are tired to death during training, you are not a starving ghost.

So they began to remember how the Roman soldiers had been given the opportunity to eat beef.

Soon, they got an accurate answer. General Arnold.

From then on, the general's life became miserable.
