Chapter 125: Prepare to rob
Liu Ji heard Zhou Kai's introduction to Xishan Fort in the Anxing Mountains, and he was really interested in rebuilding Xishan Fort, but when he heard Zhou Kai say that the nomadic tribes in the grassland had destroyed all the fortresses in the Anxing Mountains and Yunwu Mountains, he knew that with his current strength, there was still no way to rebuild Xishan Fort.

In order to plunder the wealth and population of the Great Jin Dynasty in the south, the nomadic tribes of the grassland will not see a roadblock reappear on their way to the south.
Seeing Zhou Kai looking frightened, Liu Ji said comfortingly to Zhou Kai: "Brother Zhou, rest assured, General Ben is not a reckless person, he will not do that self-defeating thing, and before he has strong strength, General Ben will not consider rebuilding Xishan Fort!" ā
Zhou Kai breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Liu Ji was young and vigorous, if he insisted on building the fortress at the mouth of Xishan Fort, it was likely that the good situation in Chengyin County would no longer exist.
Then Liu Ji said to Zhou Kai: "At present, it seems that there is no good way, we can only raise 10,000 war horses in the barren grassland in the north outside the city, but we have to be careful that the Hu people on the grassland come from the north, although we hit the 13 Wuheng small tribes a few days ago, these 13 Wuheng small tribes should not have the courage to invade our Chengyin County in the near future, but we still have to guard against other tribes on the grassland, now that Dajin is like this, there are too many grassland tribes, and they want to bite a piece of meat on the weak Dajin!" ā
"What the general said is very true, the 13 Wuheng small tribes close to our Chengyin County should be unable to invade our Chengyin County after the losses a few days ago, but the tribes of other grassland tribes may enter Chengyin County at any time, and at this time there must be many plundering Hu cavalry in Qianzhou, if they choose to return to the grassland from the Xishan Pass of the Anxing Mountains, it will also pose a great threat to the cavalry and war horses outside our city."
Liu Ji then said: "Let Brother Zhou come over today, just to let Brother Zhou send out all the cavalry of the previous border army to act as a scout for our Chengyin County, and guard against the Hu cavalry coming from all directions. ā
"It turns out that this is the case, the general only needs to give orders directly in the future, since Zhou Kai is willing to belong to the general, he is the general's subordinate, and it is natural to obey the general's orders!" As soon as Zhou Kai heard Liu Ji's words, he immediately said aloud.
"Good! With Brother Zhou's words, General Ben has the bottom in his heart! By the way, there is one more thing to bring Brother Zhou here, I need to ask Brother Zhou? ā
"If the general has anything to ask, Zhou Kai knows everything and says everything!"
Liu Ji asked: "Brother Zhou, you said that you often led the cavalry squads of the border army into the grassland to rob those small tribes of the Wuheng tribe before, so Brother Zhou must be quite familiar with the grassland north of Chengyin County?" ā
As soon as Liu Ji's words fell, Zhou Kai showed a surprised expression, "General, are you preparing to fight those 13 small tribes of Wuheng?" ā
"That's true, before coming to Chengyin County, General Ben considered the problem of garrisoning Chengyin County, if you want to gain a foothold in Chengyin County and protect the border people of our Great Jin, you must have a strong army, and General Ben can think of a way to enhance the strength of the army, which is to take the initiative to attack, go to the grassland to rob the various tribes of the nomads, rescue the Jin people who were plundered as slaves by the Hu people, enhance our population and military resources, forcibly absorb the ordinary herdsmen and war slaves of the Hu people, and increase the number of our own cavalry, Seize the livestock and wealth of the various nomadic tribes for our army. ā
Zhou Kai suddenly stood up excitedly and said loudly to Liu Ji: "The general's method is exactly what his subordinates wanted to do before, our army of the Great Jin should have taken the initiative to attack a long time ago, and it should not have been on defense for hundreds of years, and has been in a situation of being passively beaten!" It's a pity that our Chengyin City was not strong before, and our subordinates worked hard to form a cavalry squad of less than thirty people, and they couldn't provoke any Wuheng tribe at all, so they could only pick some herdsmen who were grazing! Now we are strong and strong in Chengyin City, and our subordinates are willing to be the vanguard and lead the way into the grassland to attack those tribes of the Wuheng tribe, and the grassland situation in that area is very familiar to our subordinates! ā
Liu Ji also stood up at this time, patted Zhou Kai on the shoulder and said, "Brother Zhou, go and rob the 13 Wuheng small tribes, count me as you!" In addition, to rob the 13 small tribes of Wuheng, we can also get the families of those Hu cavalry we have recruited, so that it is equivalent to tying a rein around the neck of the Hu cavalry who have a family. ā
"So when does the general plan to send troops into the grassland?"
"Of course, the sooner the better, but General Ben considers that our cavalry troops have not been built for a long time, and most of them are still newly attached Hu cavalry, so if you want to rob the 13 small tribes of Wuheng, you have to rely on our infantry, and General Ben is ready to let the infantry soldiers learn to ride horses in these days, and they don't need to ride horses to battle, they just need to be able to ride horses and march, and then they will immediately send troops to the grassland."
Zhou Kai hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "Those Hu people in the cavalry, although they signed a letter of allegiance and trained a lot more actively after receiving the first month's salary, but after all, they are going to attack the tribe they lived in before, just in case, it is most appropriate to let the infantry serve as the main force, or the general is thoughtful!" ā
After Zhou Kai left the county office, he hurried out of Chengyin City and returned to the temporary camp of the cavalry troops, and then arranged for the twenty-eight border army elite horsemen under his command to go to Chengyin County to reconnoitre, acting as scouts, and equipping each person with 3 war horses.
After telling Zhou Kai about this plan, Liu Ji arranged for the infantry stationed in Yin City to take turns to go out of the city and come to the temporary camp of the cavalry unit to learn to ride horses.
And Liu Ji himself stepped up the practice of martial arts, you must know that since the force value has increased to 29 points, it has been more than 2 months, Liu Ji's force value has never increased a little, if you can increase the force value by another point, Liu Ji's success rate in summoning generals will be doubled.
In fact, on the way to Chengyin County, Liu Ji's practice of his own martial arts has not stopped, but Liu Ji, as the head of the army, has not had much time to practice martial arts every day because of a lot of trivial matters, so that for more than 2 months, Liu Ji's own martial arts value has not changed.
