Chapter 36: The Cavalry

Guo Xun doesn't give equipment, so he will do it himself. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info still have money in hand anyway, buy! Buy! Buy!

In the past few days, the soldiers sent out by Jiang Sheng reported that the territory of Zhuojun could not be bought with money, and it was said that there were sales in Beiping and Liaoxi, and that Liaoxi was Gongsun Zhan's territory, and he had fought against Xianbei for a long time over the years, and had a lot of iron armor weapons in reserve, and the prices were cheap; And Beiping was smuggled from western Liaoning, and the price was ridiculously expensive.

Jiang Sheng estimated that the day of the battle between Jizhou and Yingchuan was still more than a month. If you go to Liaoxi to buy armor weapons, you can't catch up with it, so you have to endure the pain and buy it at a high price in Beiping.

Jiang Sheng organized all the 100-man cavalry team to go north on the pretext of purging the Yellow Turbans, firstly to save time for procurement, and secondly, to conduct long-distance riding training.

These days, Jiang Sheng has been "embezzling" grain, grass and materials in the big camp, and the hundred-man cavalry team is on the road with full supplies.

Jiang Sheng's luck was not bad, he encountered several cottages with great anger along the way, not to mention, sneak attack! The physical training of more than a month has made these soldiers alive and vigorous, and they finally got this kind of opportunity for actual combat training, and of course they will not let it go.

The seized grain and grass will be directly distributed to the local people, and the armor and weapons will be directly kept for their own use, of course, gold and silver are now things that Jiang Sheng is in short supply, so he naturally has to put them in his pocket.

Even so, the people who got the food and grass still regarded Jiang Sheng as a benefactor, at least Jiang Sheng wiped out the nearby thieves.

Jiang Sheng ordered the whole army to march at a rapid pace, and in less than three days, they arrived at the boundary of Youbeiping, and Zhang He and Jiang Sheng went separately to find suppliers. Due to the high bid, some suppliers have already found Jiang Sheng.

These armors were made of iron, thin and hard, which was suitable for light cavalry equipment, and the weapons were all spears and iron spears with iron tips, which was also considered to be above average compared to the cavalry equipment of the time. Armor and weapons were still controlled items in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and ordinary people could not buy and sell, so each supplier could only provide a small amount, Jiang Sheng and others found more than ten suppliers to get together a hundred sets of armor, and the weapons were also so-so.

After the equipment was complete, Jiang Sheng reorganized the cavalry team, according to the configuration of the squad, a group of five or a group of ten, or a group of twenty or fifty people. Jiang Sheng organized a variety of dispersion and combination methods in the process of going south, and set up a trumpet to agree on the assembly or separation signal, to ensure that the five horsemen could also fight, and the hundred horsemen could quickly separate and assemble.

During the march, this newly-born cavalry team gained the accumulation of actual combat experience, and it was able to fight if it advanced, and it could defend when it retreated. And the ideological core of this team is firmly focused on Jiang Sheng, which can be regarded as Jiang Sheng's personal armament, after all, heart-to-heart is the source of cohesion.

After returning to the temporary camp in Zhuo County, Jiang Sheng left half of the soldiers in the temporary camp and trained diligently every day, Jiang Sheng told Zhang He that he might go to Qingzhou to support the battle in a few days, and the cavalry training was handed over to Zhang He. Jiang Sheng's main task at present is to get Deng Mao out.

"Zicheng, why are there fewer and fewer of your people?" Zou Jing said coldly.

Jiang Sheng was taken aback, but Zou Jing still discovered the abnormality.

"Don't hide it from the captain, the soldiers don't have armor and weapons, they all escaped, and they can't stay down!"

"Zicheng, there is no need for you to hide with me, have the others become cavalry and hidden?" Zou Jing lowered his voice and said.

Jiang Sheng smiled dryly and did not answer.

"Good news for you, if you don't have the equipment, this news will give you good luck." Zou Jing sold Guanzi.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Come, talk over here!" Zou Jing led Jiang Sheng to a remote place.

"For the sake of receiving so many benefits from you, I will tell you the news in advance: the yellow turban in Qingzhou is fierce, and Gong Jing and Guo Tingshi of Qingzhou have an old relationship, and they sent a letter asking for help yesterday."

"Qingzhou is not short of equipment, grain and grass, is it impossible to send troops?" Jiang Sheng said.

"Zicheng, you are really smart, I see that Lord Thorn Shi is hesitating, although the Youzhou Yellow Turban has long been destroyed, but this year, I can't be sure where something will happen."

"No wonder Guo Tingshi is embarrassed!"

"According to my analysis, this time Gong Jing asks for help, Guo Tingshi will definitely help. However, the elite main force will definitely not be sent, so the volunteers will appear in the reinforcements. If Zicheng is interested, he may be able to go with the army and ask Gong Jing for equipment. ”

"In this way, Zicheng knows, this little meaning is not a tribute!" Jiang Sheng is naturally indispensable to Zou Jing's benefits.

Zou Jing smiled and took the small bag of gold, "Thank you." ”

"Hey, don't be in a hurry to leave, Lord Captain, there is still something to ask for in the future." Jiang Sheng grabbed Zou Jing's sleeve.

"Please."

"During the Battle of Daxing Mountain, I captured an enemy general in Xia, I don't know if you remember?"

"Enemy generals? What Zicheng said was Deng Mao? ”

"It's this person. On that day, he intended to surrender, but Lord Assassin Shi intervened, for nearly two months, this Deng Mao has been imprisoned, I want to persuade him to surrender, I don't know where to start? ”

"Well...... Why don't you come with me to meet Lord Thorn and convince him first. ”

Guo Xun was in a daze at Gong Jing's letter asking for help, and when he saw Zou Jing coming in, he asked lightly: "Captain Zou came here late at night, what's the matter?" ”

"Lord Assassin Shi, but are you worried about Gong Assassin Shi's request for help?"

"yes, there are wars everywhere now, how can I do that?"

"There is a proposal in the lowly position, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?"

"Come on, you and I will refer to it!"

"There are still tens of thousands of volunteers in the Youzhou battalion, and they can form reinforcements to support Qingzhou, and our Youzhou army only needs to send a small number of troops to take care of it. The supply of the volunteers is provided by Gong Tingshi. In this way, the problem of reinforcements was solved, and the volunteers were paid for supplies, wouldn't this be the best of both worlds? ”

"Oh, you're talking about my heart. I have this intention, I don't know who can rush to Qingzhou? Guo Xun patted his thigh and said happily.

"Liu Xuande's department can be a pioneer! There is one more person to recommend below. Zou Jing clapped his hands twice as he spoke, and a person walked in outside the door.

"Jiang Sheng greets Lord Thorn Shi!" The person who came was Jiang Sheng.

"Hmm, what are you here for?" Guo Xun said.

"Lord Thorn Shi, Captain Zou wants to share his worries for Lord Thorn Shi, and I am specially advised to take the initiative to ask for help, lead the department to support Qingzhou, and hope that Lord Thorn Shi will be gracious!"

"So good! I wonder how many soldiers you have? ”

"There are fifty tigers and horses below, all of whom are warriors of a hundred battles, and they are willing to serve the dogs and horses for Lord Thorn Shi!" 、

"Huh, fifty? Your courage is commendable, and you can be transferred to Zou Jing's department to listen to the dispatch. Guo Xun obviously doesn't look down on this small team again.

"My lord, the bottom of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is unknown, and you need to find someone who knows the other side to win." Zou Jing said.

"Who knows whom?"

"Do you remember the battle of Daxing Mountain, Jiang Sheng once captured a general, named Deng Mao?"

"Oh, I forgot about it, but I don't know if this Deng Mao is really descending?"

"My lord, Deng Mao is not a person who does not know how to lift, as long as the adult is gracious and powerful, he will not regard his life as child's play. In the next is not talented, willing to recruit Deng Mao! Jiang Sheng said.

"Okay, then you go and recruit that Deng Mao, if you turn back after surrendering, only you ask!"

"Thank you, sir!" Jiang Sheng gave up his hand and retired.
