Regardless of whether the bow will be developed into a situation like the league in the future in the future, but at present, the bow is just a game used by the soldiers in the army to hone their riding skills and cooperate, in fact, there are audiences and arbitration like today, which is already a very formal kind for the present, and Ye Zhao has no interest in carrying forward this game for the time being.

First, there is no need, the current era is really not an era to show any sportsmanship, and secondly, it is not a good thing for the army to regularize the bow, and Ye Zhao is really not short of that money now.

The rain is still falling, but looking at a group of little dolls running excitedly in the field, or happy to win the battle, the losing side is also depressed, these second generations have a strong sense of honor and disgrace, although the combat quality presented in the game is too immature in the eyes of Ye Zhao, who came out of the field, but it is always a good thing.

Cai Yan was a little distressed and pulled Cai Yi to his side after the end of the field and helped him wipe the water droplets on his body, Cai Yi's riding skills were not very good, and he could only say that he was barely able to participate in the bow under Ye Zheng's care, if it weren't for Ye Zhao who made the stirrup and saddle a long time ago, at this time, Cai Yi might not even be qualified to play.

Even so, he was almost dropped in several collisions, this game is naturally exciting for children, but for these mothers, it is too dangerous, but Ye Zhao has an encouraging attitude, Cai Yan is not good to say anything except for grudges, Cai Yi seems to be quite happy.

After watching an informal ball game, Ye Zhao asked the children to change their clothes, drink some ginger soup to avoid the cold, and after some encouragement, he took Guan Yu and Zhao Yun to the study for office use on weekdays.

"My lord, there are some interesting things, please take a look." When Ye Zhao took Guan Yu and Zhao Yun to the study, Xi Zhicai and Li Ru were already there, although the two of them had their own official positions, and even Xi Zhicai had been sealed as the Pavilion Marquis, but more often, the two of them were still acting as Ye Zhao's staff, assisting Ye Zhao in handling official business, and seeing Ye Zhao come in, Xi Zhicai sent a few pieces of information to Ye Zhao with great interest.

"What's wrong?" Ye Zhao took the letterhead, looked at the envelope, raised his eyebrows and said, "Is it possible that Han Sui and Ma Teng dare to do something with me at this time?" ”

That's really looking for his own death, now there are as many as 150,000 new and old soldiers and horses in Guanzhong, as long as Ye Zhao is willing, those dismissed Xiliang troops can be pulled up again, which can double the strength in a short period of time, and they can catch up with the population of Han Sui and Ma Tengzhi, if the two of them come to do something at this time, Ye Zhao will never mind completely recovering Xiliang.

"Not really, but it's more fun than this!" Xi Zhicai said with a smile.

"Oh?" Ye Zhao lowered his head at this time, unfolded the letter and looked at it carefully.

"Han Sui wants to emulate the Guanzhong business and trade with the countries of the Western Regions?" Ye Zhao raised his head in surprise, thought about it carefully, and said: "This Yellow River Jiuqu is smart, they grasp the key road of Zhangye, whether the countries of the Western Regions want to come or our army caravan wants to go to the Western Regions, they have to go through their land, take the goods of the Western Regions, and then resell them to us, take silk and porcelain from us and resell them to the Western Regions, it's a pity not to be a merchant." ”

"Lord, the last general is willing to lead his troops to recruit Han Sui!" Guan Yu intervened and said to Ye Zhaolang.

"Someone is willing to work for you, regardless of gains and losses, such a good guy, it's not easy to find, reluctant!" Ye Zhao smiled.

It seems that Han Sui has indeed made a lot of money, and if Ye Zhao doesn't stop it, Han Sui will get more and more.

But the most critical problem is that Han Sui and the Western Regions may be able to ask for a sky-high price, but in order to maintain the relationship with Ye Zhao and prevent Ye Zhao from doing anything to him, he doesn't have the courage to move the profits on Ye Zhao's side, and even does not take a penny, but he is cunning and robbing the Western Regions.

He occupies the important land of Zhangye, and the people of the Western Regions can only go here if they want to trade with Ye Zhao, so he can strengthen himself by sucking the blood of the Western Regions.

But this growth is the growth of money and food, whether it is Han Sui or Ma Teng, they basically follow the old system of the Han family under their rule, and it is difficult to attract the population of the Western Regions to settle in Xiliang, while the population of Guanzhong enjoys all kinds of benefits on Ye Zhao's side, and they will go to settle in Xiliang when their heads are pumped.

In this way, it will form an embarrassing situation where Han Sui's money and food are abundant, but no one can use it, with enough money and food, Han Sui can arm his army to the teeth, but it is difficult to expand, and it is difficult to develop to the Western Regions, the road is far away, Han Sui does not have a stable rear like Ye Zhao, once he moves troops to the Western Regions, he must consider the result of not being able to return in this life.

To the east is the Southern Xiongnu, the place is not large, and the population is not large, but it is a soldier of the whole people, and there are more than 100,000 people who control the strings, and they can't be beaten either.

The rest can only be done to Ma Teng.

Ye Zhao looked at everyone and said with a smile: "This information says that Han Sui cut off Zhang Ye privately, but he did not communicate with Ma Teng, and Ma Teng did not know, so these benefits belong to Han Sui." ”

"Not bad." Li Ru nodded and smiled: "This Han Sui is known as the Yellow River Jiuqu, in the past, he joined forces with Bian Zhang, and when he saw that the situation was wrong, he turned against him, and later became a brother with Beigong Boyu, and in a blink of an eye, he sold Beigong Boyu to Zhang Wen, and now he is married to Ma Teng, I am afraid it will not last long, after all, it is not a family, this benefit, it seems that he wants to monopolize it." ”

"Wait a while, and stab this matter to Ma Teng's side!" Xi Zhicai said with a smile: "But if you really want to provoke the two sides to do it, the minister thinks that the lord might as well wait a little longer, the more this gets, the more jealous Ma Teng's heart will be, and the more likely Han Sui is to let go, when the time comes, the brothers will turn against each other, and it will be time for our army to come forward to clean up the mess." ”

Zhao Yun and Guan Yu felt a little uncomfortable, how did this literati's intestines grow? Why did they suddenly have a trace of sympathy for Han Sui and Ma Teng?

If you are sold, you have to help you count the money...... No, Ye Zhao didn't do anything at all, he sold himself by himself, and then helped the people to make money, just like Ye Zhao said, this Han Sui seems to be really a free guy, and he is willing to post himself without pay.

"Don't be careless." Ye Zhao said with a smile: "Although wealth can move people's hearts, but this Han Sui is known as the Yellow River Nine Songs, it may not be impossible to see that it is powerful, if a strong man breaks his wrist, when the time comes, it will be difficult to clean up, appropriately add fire to him, and the most important thing is that Ma Teng knows the right time." ”

"Don't worry, my lord." Li Ru and Xi Zhicai glanced at each other, nodded to Ye Zhao with a smile.

"Zilong and Yun Chang just came back from changing guards, and I wanted the two of you to rest for a few days before summoning them, but since they have come to the mansion today, I will tell you first." Ye Zhao motioned for Guan Yu and Zhao Yun to sit down and said, "The idle days, I'm afraid it won't be too long. ”

"My lord, please command." Guan Yu and Zhao Yun said solemnly.

"Previously, the two of you were stationed in Hongnong and Hedong respectively." Ye Zhao looked at the two of them and said, "Now that Ji Ling and Fang Yue are in charge, and both of you are good at commanding the cavalry, I intend that you two will each lead 5,000 cavalry to garrison in the two places of Zoumashui and Xungushui!" ”

"These two places are adjacent to the Hetao......" Guan Yu looked at Ye Zhao, a little puzzled, although it was nominally under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao, but in fact, these two places were inhabited by the Qiang people, adjacent to the Hetao Plain.

"Why, I can't say for the time being, just be prepared, you two only need to train and guard on weekdays." Ye Zhao shook his head and said: "Recently, the Southern Xiongnu have been a little uneasy, and many Xiongnu people have been cruising south. ”

Li Ru handed a piece of data to Guan Yu and said: "According to the data gathered from various checkpoints and cities, there are nearly 10,000 Hun stragglers that we have discovered so far. ”

"Why haven't we heard of the Huns?" Guan Yu was puzzled, just in the border stop, Zhao Yun and Guan Yu are very clear, whether it is the Huns or the Xianbei people, they are not afraid of their large forces going south, what they are most afraid of is this kind of countless stragglers going south, they will not fight with the main force of the Han army, but they will be like wolves, avoiding the strong and attacking the weak, generally at this time, the army will not have much loss, but for the people, it is a real disaster.

Guan Yu has fought in Youzhou for so many years, and it is the first time that someone has been able to count the approximate Shu Julai, which is really a bit unbelievable.

"That's the weirdness!" Xi Zhicai said with a smile: "These Huns went south this time, they did not loot, and occasionally went to the nearby fang market to buy enough food, and we also calculated the approximate number of the other party through the food and minced meat that were bought in these fang markets, and it would not be too bad." ”

"The Huns want to invade the south?" Guan Yu raised his eyebrows, and the evil spirit loomed.

"I'm not sure of the other party's purpose at the moment, but so many people sneak in like this, and the plot is not small!" Ye Zhao crossed his hands and fingers, looked at the two of them and said: "Now there are not many cavalry in our army, and 10,000 cavalry is already seventy percent, you two, save me a little." ”

"Don't worry, lord!" Guan Yu said with a smile: "Although the Southern Xiongnu claim to have more than 100,000 people who control the strings, but these people are mostly tribes, and it is impossible to assemble in a short time. ”

"Yun Chang misunderstood, the purpose of these people is unknown, and they are not ready to move them for the time being, and according to the report of the spies, these more than 10,000 people are elite soldiers in the Southern Xiongnu, if they are in the Hetao or the grassland, even if our army also has cavalry, I don't want to fight them, even if they win, our army's losses are not small, but they are now scattered and running to this level, life and death are not up to them! You don't need to deal with these people. Ye Zhao shook his head with a smile and said.

"That's ......" Guan Yu looked at Ye Zhao suspiciously, if he didn't deal with these Huns, why did he give them cavalry.

"No matter what the other party's purpose is, the infiltration of these tens of thousands of elites will inevitably lead to the emptiness of the rear defense!" Xi Zhicai explained: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. ”

"The lord wants to ......" Zhao Yun's expression moved, looking at Ye Zhao.

"At present, the hiding place of these Huns has not been fully grasped, and if they are found, they also need to be deployed, it will take time, you two will lead the army to garrison this time, and the message will be transmitted with wolf smoke here! If you see wolf smoke, don't pay attention to this side, hit the Hetao directly, as for how to fight, you two decide for yourself, I have only one request. Ye Zhao handed the two arrows to the two of them and said, "The Huns have too many people who control the strings, you must reduce them as much as possible." ”

In the bland words, there is a thick bloody atmosphere, in the Xiongnu or the entire grassland, as long as a man is more than six feet tall, he can be regarded as a person who controls the strings, but Ye Zhao's sentence includes most of the men in the Hetao.

"Whoa!" The murderous aura is pressing, but in the chests of the two, the blood is boiling, and they promise in unison.
