Two months after the outbreak of the plague, Huo Yu's fame in Liaodong reached its peak. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 With the arrival of the last Yellow Turban captives in Jizhou, the population of Liaodong has reached nearly 150,000, so Huo Yu ordered to recruit more than 2,000 people to bring the number of his army to 10,000.

In the past few months, Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping have exchanged more than 1,000 war horses for Huo Yu through trade with nomadic clans, plus the 700 horses captured before, Huo Yu decided to reorganize the flying feather horses, and the number was set at 2,000.

Huo Yu clearly remembered in his heart that in the autumn of 185 years in history, Xianbei would invade the Han Dynasty on a large scale, although there were only 2,000 Feiyu cavalry, but it was enough for Huo Yu, who was currently on the defensive, and he couldn't afford to raise more cavalry.

On this day, Huo Yu convened a group of civil and military discussions, but what made everyone feel strange was that the location of this discussion was not the Taishou Mansion or the county government, but the skillful craftsman's workshop. In fact, during this period of time, in addition to the newly recruited soldiers are still training, the rest of the soldiers are all involved in the annual spring ploughing, since the advent of the Quyuan plow, the craftsman workshop has withdrawn from the overturn, Xiangping City is around the great water conservancy, the overturn soon also put into formal use.

"Gongda, isn't there a new farm tool launched again?" Xi Zhicai looked at Xun You and said.

"You don't think so, didn't Zhicai see Guo Jia, a foodie, appear!" Xun You pretended to be angry and said, looking at Guo Jia as he spoke.

"Gongda is right, Fengxiao, a foodie, has appeared, it must be related to military affairs!" Xi Zhicai also pretended to be angry.

"Please also ask the two brothers to be angry, the lord has an order for me to familiarize myself with the thirty-six plans, and Jia is also ordered to act."

"Xiao Guozi, you are not in the barracks these days, I miss you for a long time." Zhang Fei suddenly said something that made Guo Jia not embarrassed, since Zhao Yu saw Guo Jia call Xiao Guozi once, he was remembered by Zhang Fei.

Xun You and Xi Zhicai looked at Guo Jia playfully, and their eyes seemed to say, "Pretend, let you pretend." Just when Guo Jia was in a dilemma, Huo Yu arrived.

"Haha, Yu is one step late, let you wait for a long time."

"See the lord." The crowd saluted in order.

"Everyone is together, don't say much, Deheng will lead the horse out."

Ma Jun went as promised, and when he was young, a war horse was led out, and everyone always felt that it was wrong, but they couldn't say it for a while.

"I see how the saddle is different? Zilong, do you say yes or no? Zhang Fei was the first to speak, and then bumped Zhao Yun with his arm. Now Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun are definitely good friends, Guo Jia was gradually abandoned by Zhang Fei because he disappeared for a while.

"Yun Dao thinks this horse walks weirdly?" Zhao Yun touched his nose and said.

And Huo Yu said in his heart, the good guy is worthy of being a natural cavalry commander, this can be seen, but I don't know who can find out about it!

"Why are there two stirrups?" Gao Shun found a stirrup on the left and right, and immediately added.

Gao Shun's words woke up the dreamer, and the generals stared at the horse in front of them with wide eyes. The stirrups of the Han Dynasty have always been unilateral, what is the use of these bilateral stirrups?

"Lord, this stirrup, is it ......." Xu Rong seemed to wake up but was not completely sure, and stopped speaking after only half of the words.

"Zhicai, you get on the horse and try it!" Huo Yu saw that everyone no longer bought three things, so he directly named a person with the worst riding skills to get on the horse and give it a try.

"Lord, you know this equestrian ...... best" Xi Zhicai was about to defend when he was interrupted by Huo Yu.

Then Huo Yu no longer gave Xi Zhicai a chance to open his mouth, and personally led the horse forward and helped him get on the horse. After Xi Zhicai sat down, Huo Yu slapped the horse's buttocks, and suddenly the war horse ran up in the yard. After a while, Xi Zhicai rode back with a smile on his face, turned over and dismounted and stopped talking. Everyone was even more inexplicable, and Huo Yu also looked at everyone with a smile and was silent.

Just when everyone hesitated, Zhang Fei rushed towards the war horse, who knew that a white shadow was faster than him.

"Brother Yide, Yun first try the bilateral stirrups." Yu Bi rode out of the horse.

I saw Zhao Yun standing sideways for a while on the war horse, and made several difficult movements from time to time, which used to be very dangerous in high-speed travel. But Zhao Yun did it so easily, which is breathtaking.

"With bilateral stirrups, we can free our hands, the lord is really a strange person!" Huang Zhong had been secretly observing this, and at this moment he could already be sure that as soon as these stirrups came out, the cavalry's combat power would be greatly increased, and as military generals, they could devote themselves to the battle without being distracted and controlling the horses.

"Brother Han Sheng is right, what you see today is newly made by the craftsman's workshop, bilateral stirrups, Takahashi saddles, horseshoes, with these three treasures, the combat power of the cavalry will increase exponentially." Huo Yu saw Huang Zhong tell the secret, so he opened his mouth and added.

"What is this horseshoe, my lord?"

"Horseshoe is mainly used to delay the wear and tear of horseshoe. It not only protects the horse's hooves, but also makes the horse's hooves grip the ground more firmly, which is beneficial for both riding and driving. ”

After Zhao Yun returned, the excitement was beyond words, and everyone immediately surrounded him, carefully observing the three treasures that Huo Yu said.

After returning to Taishou Mansion, everyone is still discussing, with such equipment, how afraid to meet the Xianbei cavalry in the future! Even if you can't ride a horse, with the help of these three things, you can quickly form combat effectiveness, and for the entire Han people, the advantage of nomads is gone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there are now more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Liaodong, in addition to the troops defending the city in various counties. Today, I want to redistribute the troops, and then perform my duties and train the soldiers to prepare for Xianbei. ”

"No"

Feiyu cavalry has been expanded to 2,000 by Huo Yu under the condition that it now has three treasures, of which 300 are heavy cavalry led by Zhang Fei, but it is not yet possible to achieve that all men and horses are wearing iron armor; Zhao Yun led 800 people as light cavalry, and the remaining 900 people were led by Huo Yu, who were also wearing leather armor, except for the generals, of course.

In everyone's hearts, the Flying Feather Rider is the most elite existence in the entire Liaodong County, and Huo Yu has devoted all his thoughts to the training of the Flying Feather Rider. Of course, it doesn't mean that other soldiers and horses are not taken seriously, Huo Yu, the 800 trapped camp trained by Gao Shun, never interferes, and there is a faint tendency to become an army of its own.

The three thousand crossbowmen trained by Huang Zhong, Huo Yu, equipped all the big yellow crossbows here, and as for the remaining five thousand foot soldiers, under the leadership of Xu Rong, they were even more trained and screamed. Among the 5,000 people themselves, there is the existence of the Yellow Turban Force, and the combat power cannot be ignored, coupled with Huo Yu's brainwashing and Xu Rong's training, the entire infantry phalanx should not be underestimated.

In order to better stimulate the enthusiasm of the soldiers, Huo Yu deliberately set up a reward system for a small martial arts exercise once a month and a martial arts exercise once a month. In addition to receiving material rewards, those who perform well in the martial arts can also attend the training courses set up by Huo Yu himself every week, which were originally taught to a group of generals, but with the expansion of the army, the grassroots team, marshal, and tun official positions are also included.
