Chapter 343: A Horse

"Borrow soldiers! In order to avenge your Ma Chao, I want my Great Xia army to be dispatched, and the soldiers risk being shrouded in horse leather? Liu Yuan snorted coldly: "At the beginning, your father Ma Teng colluded with the forces of Liangzhou to invade Sanfu in the east, causing me a lot of trouble, but now, Fufeng has still not recovered. Ma Chao, I ask you, do you think I should promise you? ”

was a little embarrassed by Liu Yuan's words, buried his head, Ma Chao was a little short of words. Seeing Liu Yuan's attitude towards Ma Chao, Liu Yuan next to him rolled his eyes, and he felt a little happy in his heart.

"Of course, it's not impossible!" Liu Yuan's next words gave Ma Chao some hope: "There will be a war in the east of Great Xia, and I will try my best to deal with Zhao, Wei and other Kwantung princes. Next, if you play a role in the war, I will grant your wishes. Liangzhou Han Sui, my backhand can be determined, and you can lead the troops to fight at that time! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ma Chao understood what Liu Yuan meant, and knelt down on one knee: "Ma Chao, I am willing to serve Daxia!" ”

"Let's go to Hanoi under Xu Rong for the time being and become a school captain! Tomorrow I will go to the Ministry of War for the record, that's all! Liu Yuan said lightly.

......

Out of the palace, Ma Chao was relieved, and the experience after entering Chang'an made him feel quite depressed. Liu Yuan, the father and son, gave him the feeling that they were not good. Although the result is not good, at least there is hope, staying in the Xia Kingdom, having a safe place, it will always be much better if there is nothing to settle before.

was warmly called to the palace by Liu Jue for a banquet, and Ma Chao was a little uncomfortable with Liu Jue's closeness. He waited until late at night before he said goodbye.

"Your Highness, this Ma Jiahu'er, it seems that it is not easy to subdue!" In the study, Yang Fu said to Liu Jue.

"Sir can see it too!" Liu Jue's expression was very calm: "Ma Mengqi can be regarded as a general, he is a talent, and Gu really wants to subdue him." Over the years, Liu Heng has cultivated a lot of power in Liangzhou, and the four strong generals he has made are not small. Alone in the army, except for the support of the Lan clan and other clans, the power of the Han army has little influence. Ma Chao is the breakthrough he wants to find! In today's Xuan room, the father seems to be indifferent to Ma Chao, but Lone can see that the father still wants to use Ma Chao! ”

"When Ma Chao first joined Xia, he didn't know the situation in Daxia. Entering the lonely door, leaving the lonely mansion, and being recommended by the lonely one, it was marked with the mark of the Zhou Palace, which is a fact that cannot be changed! Liu Jue chuckled.

"Your Highness is wise!" When Yang Fu heard this, he nodded twice: "However, in the opinion of the minister, in the army, it is still not good to move too much!"

"Why is that?" Liu Yu was a little puzzled: "Without the army, everything is not guaranteed!" ”

"Because of this, if you act too much, it is easy to arouse Your Majesty's suspicion!" Yang Fu said solemnly.

When Liu Jue heard this, he looked up thoughtfully: "Mr.'s words are reasonable!" ”

Yang Fu is a famous man in Liangzhou, a young man, and among the talents collected by Liu Jue, he is the most outstanding and was appointed as the chief secretary of the Zhou Palace. is quite trusted by Liu Jue, and when there is something, discuss it with him.

The moon and stars are scarce, walking on Chang'an Avenue, late at night, the hustle and bustle of the nine cities of Chang'an in the northwest corner is no longer audible. It was almost curfew, and the city guards patrolling the streets were much denser.

Ma Chao's pace quickened a lot, and after several rounds, he returned to the small wine shop where he had been staying for a few days.

"Brother, you're finally back!" Ma Xiu, who had been waiting hard, saw Ma Chao return to the room, and they all greeted him, and the Ma brothers all gathered here. The consumption in Chang'an is not low, and many people only called two rooms, which shows the constraints of several people.

Pang De, who was in the room next to him, heard the sound and led two strong men over: "Meng Qi, why have you been there for so long!" I thought something was wrong, how was it going? ”

Ma Chao shook his head and briefly said what he saw today. Everyone looked depressed and a little indignant, only feeling that Liu Yuan was slow to treat Ma Chao.

Pang De looked at Ma Chao: "Meng Qi, what are you going to do?" ”

"Since they are all here, how do they arrange it, just bear it for the time being!" Ma Chao looked helpless: "I am temporarily ordered to go to Hanoi and strive to make some military achievements!" ”

"Brother, what about us?" Matthew hurriedly asked.

This can stop Ma Chao, according to his thoughts, he naturally wants to bring one of them into the army. But today he also understands that the system of Xia Guo is not simple. He, the captain, has not yet been completely decided, and he does not know whether he can bring his troops into the army, and he does not dare to act rashly.

"I'll go to the military department tomorrow and ask! Can you take you and the others east with you? ”

......

The sun rose in the east, and early in the morning, Liu Yuan drove to Shanglin Garden. On an open meadow, several rows of sturdy fences, each more than 20 paces apart, were laid out one after another.

In the distance, a cavalry army with unusual summer horsemen formed a tight queue, waiting. This is a real iron horseman, men and horses are covered in iron armor and armed to the teeth.

After so many years of research, Nanlai has recruited a lot of skilled craftsmen, and the armor that can be used in combat was finally made two years ago. Jane pulled out the elite armor of a hundred battles into an army, exhausted his strength, and got this thousand heavy armor and armor horses. I've been training for so long, and now it's starting to pay off.

The training of heavy riding is not simple, compared with light riding, the requirements are more stringent, and the cooperation between soldiers should be closer and more tacit. Long Jie was entrusted with the position of commander, and he also crossed the river by feeling the stones, and spent so much time training, and finally had a good appearance.

Long Jie is the commander of this cavalry, Liu Yuan ordered someone to wave the command flag, with a wave of his hand, all the knights neatly closed their masks, and under the leadership of Long Jie, their legs moved and began to accelerate slowly.

The sound of horses' hooves was majestic, and there was the constant sound of armor and iron pieces hitting each other, and after running for two miles, the speed finally rose. The queue has been neatly maintained, and there is no scattering, so I don't know how long I have been practicing. The heavy riders who ran up, with overwhelming momentum, sprinted past.

The sturdy fence was smashed in an instant, and the back row was reduced to pieces.

This is just a performance, but Liu Yuan can imagine how much damage it will cause and how much power it will show on the battlefield.

"With this armor and riding weapon, I Xia Cavalry will no longer be afraid of the enemy's phalanx!" Beside him, he was a little amazed and excited.

Fugu Huaijing, who had been blowing the cold wind in the desert for several years, was transferred back to Chang'an by Liu Yuan, and is now the general of the guards.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have the heart to exchange with that kid from Longjie, and personally command this treasure horse!" Fugu Huaijing was like seeing a group of stripped beauties, and his eyes were "red".

Liu Yuan was not as optimistic as Fugu Huaijing, and said lightly: "This can only be a surprise soldier, and the enemy army will be taken by surprise, once it is exposed, the enemy will definitely find a way to crack it." I don't have illusions, and with this thousand rides, I can sweep the world. If I don't expand this army, one is not financially enough to support it, and the other is a large number of heavy cavalry, and the results that can be achieved may not be worth the investment! ”

Even if there are Liu Yuan's words, the interest of the servant is still high.

"But with this heavy ride, I will definitely be able to surprise Yuan and Cao, but I don't know, who will I use it for?" Liu Yuan had a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Tell Longjie that the speed is too slow, it needs to be strengthened, the speed is not enough, I must really be able to destroy the withered army!" Liu Yuan turned his head and ordered.

Turning to the other side, in the shade of the trees, eight hundred equally equipped foot soldiers stood in order, and the commander of the army, Gao Shun, was trapped in the camp.
