"Lord, this big victory, my Macheng side killed seventeen people, thirty-eight wounded, according to the lord's orders, the deceased's family gave a beard, and the wounded were also sent to the hospital, but this time against the Karasuma people, my Macheng dispatched only six hundred people, but with a slight injury, defeated three thousand Karasuma knights, and finally returned alive, but five hundred people, it can be called a big victory!"

Early the next morning, when the casualties were counted, Qiu Chi still didn't believe it, saying that he had dispatched 600 people, but in fact, only the more than 180 cronies brought by Ye Zhao really killed the enemy, and the remaining 400 people were those who raised shields to block arrows, and almost all of the casualties were these people, and those under Ye Zhao's command were unscathed except for their arms that continued to pull the bow and lose their strength.

"Let's talk about the harvest." Ye Zhao waved his hand, Ding Li had already reported the casualties to himself yesterday, and what he wanted to know more now was the harvest of yesterday's battle.

"Yes." Qiu Chi faced Ye Zhao at this moment, but he didn't dare to be careful, and hurriedly said: "There are more than 300 intact war horses, and the others were either taken away by the Karasuma people, or were shot to death or broken horses' hooves. ”

"Nothing?" After staring for a long time, seeing that Qiu Chi didn't speak, Ye Zhao turned his head to look at him.

"Uh...... Nope. Qiu Chi looked at Ye Zhao in confusion, thinking carefully about what else was wrong and missing.

"What about the weapons of the Karasuma people? What about horse leather? Ye Zhao looked at Qiu Chi.

"Ma Ge should still be on the side of Tudang, as for the ...... weapons" Qiu Chi looked at Ye Zhao hesitantly: "The weapons of the Karasuma people are rough, far less well-equipped than my big man, what is the use?" ”

"What's the use?" Ye Zhao looked at Qiu Chi with some distress: "In other words, you didn't get it back?" ”

"Nope." Qiu Chi was a little numb by Ye Zhao's gaze, so he could only stubbornly say, "Lord, what's the use of those things?" ”

"It's better to rebuild it as an iron ingot than if you throw it away, not to mention these equipment, we don't use it, but I don't know how many tribes on this grassland are willing to ask for it, hoard it and find a seller, and if you don't say anything, you can exchange it for a few cattle and sheep for me, what's the use?" Ye Zhao rubbed his temples: "We have to live, so many people in the city have to feed, and we have to recruit soldiers, all of them are as generous and bold as Brother Qiu, I'm afraid that I, the lord of the horse city, will starve to death in a short time, so how did you manage not to lose money when you guarded the business of Rome City for Mrs. Guo before?" ”

"The lord forgives the sin, and his subordinates will order someone to find it." Qiu Chi hurriedly said.

"Forget it, go and find it now, I'm afraid I won't be able to find it back, you send someone to protect the Wuhuan Captain Department to get the equipment with my seal, the court also promised me a batch of equipment, let them send it as soon as possible, and post a conscription list in each county, I am also the leader of the cavalry, the court let me recruit soldiers and horses by myself, I am afraid that it is not enough to rely on Macheng alone." Ye Zhao waved his hand.

"Whoa!" When Qiu Chi heard this, he bowed his hand, and saw that Ye Zhao had no other instructions, so he went down to do things, in addition to arranging people to post the list and transport the equipment of the Wuhuan Captain's Department, the most important thing was to draft a recital.

This time, Ye Zhao broke 3,000 Karasuma soldiers with 600 people, which is a lot of credit, not to mention shaking the government and the opposition, but it can also make Ye Zhao famous, at least it can make many people who doubt Ye Zhao's ability shut up, and if he wants to be promoted in the future, he will naturally have something to say, and if Ye Zhao can go further, he can also officially enter the official career.

Qiu Chi is working hard here, Ye Zhao is taking Guan Hai, Ding Li, Meng Hu, and Gao Sheng to wander around the city at the moment, yesterday's big victory, quickly stabilized Ye Zhao's position in this horse city, and the market became prosperous and lively again, this is one of the hub cities between Hu and Han, and the traders who come and go know and don't know each other will come over to say hello and mix their faces.

For a long time in the future, he will be the master of this horse city, this feeling is no stranger to Ye Zhao, but for the four of Ding Li, it is the first time, one by one, the waist pole is straight, with the majestic body, it looks quite mighty.

"This wall needs to be repaired." A group of five people walked all the way to the edge of the city wall, looking at the city wall that lacked a big gap, Ye Zhao shook his head, yesterday's victory, that was Aguli's rash advance, and everything about himself was exposed to Ye Zhao's eyes, but for Ye Zhao, he didn't know anything, so he was ambushed by Ye Zhao halfway, not to mention the loss of soldiers, and even his own life was gone, but Ye Zhao didn't think that the forces on the entire grassland were such brainless people, in fact, on the grassland, there was no shortage of combat-oriented talents from ancient times to the present, in fact, If Aguli hadn't been so blatantly writing hatred on his face, if the three thousand Wuhuan Iron Cavalry yesterday had attacked suddenly, Ye Zhao wouldn't have been able to stop it at all.

This is also the reason why Ye Zhao is determined to clean up Aguli, after all, on the side of the couch, sleeping with a fierce beast that can bring heavy damage to himself at any time, no one will feel good, it is better to provoke him to attack in advance, and plot a little, now that the threat is temporarily removed, it is time to consider the political system of Ma Cheng, he can't put his hope on the incompetence of his opponent every time, and he must have enough deterrence in his hands.

"Lord, although this wall is not high, it is not easy to repair it." Meng Hu has been in Macheng for the longest time, and he is no stranger to many things, so he was worried.

"Oh? How is it not easy? Ye Zhao turned his head to look at Meng Hu and said suspiciously.

"If the city wall is only built with rammed earth, it is not difficult, but the soil around this Macheng is soft and not suitable for tamping, even if it is barely built, it is easy to collapse, but if you want to use masonry, not only do you have to burn bricks and stones, but you also need masons to prepare mud for farming, even if the Macheng city is not big, I am afraid that it will not be completed this year, and the cost is very high." Meng Hu said with a wry smile, when Aguli wanted to demolish the city wall, he was unwilling, but it was a pity that Aguli was powerful at that time, and Qiu Chi didn't ask about it, so it was difficult for him to reverse the situation alone, so he could only compromise.

"No matter how difficult it is, you have to build it, this is the checkpoint for the Hu people to go south, as for the rest, start doing it first, and then find a way, you go and recruit some laborers, I brought a lot of masons, first fire the bricks and stones needed to build the city, as for the rest, then find a way." Ye Zhao shook his head, in addition to the troops, a Xiongguan is also one of the indispensable deterrent conditions, he brought so many craftsmen just to strengthen the defense, now it seems that the strengthening is not needed, it has to be redone directly.

"Ascension."

"The subordinates are here." Gao Sheng hurriedly took two steps forward.

"Gather the carpenters, masons, and blacksmiths I have brought with you in a moment, and make a few things, which may speed up the construction of the city." Ye Zhao thought about it, he did have some ideas, the base of the end of the world was not from scratch, he almost watched the base develop from the Stone Age to the high-tech age, but unfortunately it is different from the previous life, there are not so many high-tech talents, but he can design some simple cranes, but I don't know if these carpenters can make it.

"Whoa!" Gao Sheng is now basically a character who runs errands around Ye Zhao, he knows his own family affairs, his bravery, leading soldiers are not as good as Guan Hai and Ding Li, and even not as good as Meng Hu who dares to fight, Dou Da doesn't know a lot of words, and the copywriter naturally can't use him, so he stays by Ye Zhao's side to run errands, although his status is not high, but he is also a cronie after all.

"Lord, that Aguli has just been defeated by the lord, and the Karasuma tribe is afraid that they will not dare to make any changes in a short period of time, why are they in such a hurry?" Guan Hai on the side was puzzled.

"That digging bald is not a kind person, not to mention that they are not the only tribe on this grassland, to gain a firm foothold in this horse city, we must have the strength in our hands to make these people dare not attack, otherwise, we can win Karasuma today, and we may not be able to win Xianbei tomorrow, by the way, Ding Li." Ye Zhao suddenly remembered something, and turned his head to look at Ding Lidao.

"Yes." Ding Li took two steps forward and followed Ye Zhao's side.

"Those 400 brave men have been on the battlefield before, and now we are short of soldiers, so we just brought in training, and the basic training is trained by you, do you know how to train?" Ye Zhao asked.

"Yes." As soon as he heard about the training, Ding Li couldn't help but sweat on his head, although Ye Zhao's training method was effective, the process was really unbearable.

"The horse meat I just got will be used as military food, I will find some more food, during the training, the meat supply cannot be stopped, and I can eat meat to kill!" Ye Zhao said with a smile.

"Whoa!" Ding Li nodded vigorously, this is also the only hope for being trained by Ye Zhao, although the daily training is terrifying, but basically every day can be fed, and there is meat, this is the only hope for everyone in the training process.
