Chapter 356: The Ghost Lingers
Chapter 156 Yin's soul is not scattered NV real cavalry

?“ What the? 30,000 horses? Han Shizhong was stunned for a moment, it was unbelievable!
He came to sell horses this time, and he thought that it would be good to have a few thousand, but who knew that there were so many, which greatly surprised him! Not only him, but the brothers Yang Xiong, Tong Wei, and Tong Meng were also stunned for a moment, and then their faces all had ecstatic expressions. \\.\\
"How can there be so many? Have you bought all the horses of the beggars? Yang Xiong said excitedly.
"Not really...... There are more than 100,000 horses in the entire beggar department, but the maximum number they can provide is 30,000 horses. In order to get these 30,000 horses, since last year, we have been transporting brick tea and weapons here, and we have used hundreds of carts of brick tea and tens of thousands of steel knives in exchange for these 30,000 war horses. Duan Jingzhu said with a smile.
"That's worth it!" Han Shizhong nodded.
The value of those brick tea is very low, and the value of tens of thousands of steel knives is good, but it is not as good as 30,000 war horses! Especially for the Han people, war horses belong to things with a price and no market, and even if they have money, they often can't buy them.
"Méng is very short of supplies here, they have a great demand for tea and weapons, and when we come next time, we will bring more tea and weapons, and we can exchange for more good horses." Duan Jingzhu said with a smile.
"There are no horses left in the Beggar Division, are there any horses in other places?" Han Shizhong said.
"Although don't worry, there are several big tribes on the grassland similar to the Qiyan Tribe, all of which can be exchanged for war horses." Duan Jingzhu Road.
Since last year, he has been traveling back and forth to the Méng Ancient Grassland, and on the Éng Ancient Grassland, the Qiyan Department is not the largest tribal alliance, and the Kereh Department, the Tatar Department, etc., are much larger than the Qiyan Tribe, and their number of horses is much larger. Of course, their horses could not be sold to the Han unscrupulously, and their horses also needed to be paid tribute to the Liao or Jin, and most of the horses were left for their own use. There are endless battles on the steppe, and you can't do without horses.
"Very good, next time we come, we will bring more bricks, tea, and weapons, and strive to exchange for more war horses." Han Shizhong laughed.
He was so happy today, he walked out of the outside of Méng Gubao and looked at the situation outside, only to see the stars and the night sky of the grassland was also very beautiful.
"This so-called méng ancient Great Khan actually looks down on us Han Chinese! Sooner or later, I'll make his mind change! Méng ancient grassland, sooner or later, will also belong to us Han people! Han Shizhong said secretly.
"General Han, I've been here for many days, let's leave here tomorrow and go to Goryeo." Duan Jingzhu walked out and said.
"Okay, but 30,000 horses, it's too many, I'm afraid...... We can't go back. Han Shizhong said.
When he came this time, the 1,000 warriors he brought with him were all Jing soldiers, but let these warriors drive the horses, I am afraid that they may not be able to take the horses away, after all, they are not shepherds.
"Rest assured, General, we can hire shepherds from the steppe. Actually, I was ready, and more than 500 shepherds promised to follow us to Goryeo and help us drive our horses. These ancient herdsmen were very good at driving horses, and they could make the 30,000 horses obey. Duan Jing said.
"Haha, Mr. Duan is really thoughtful, admire and admire." Han Shizhong said.
Now he has a very good impression of Duan Jingzhu, after all, Duan Jingzhu has bought so many war horses, which will be of great benefit to him and Liangshan in the future. Capable people, Han Shizhong likes them.
"When I return to Liangshan, my cavalry will be expanded to 10,000 people...... There is also Luan Tingyu's second army, presumably the cavalry can also be full! In the second half of the year, the Metropolitan Governor has decided to attack us, and our cavalry can gallop in the territory of the Metropolitan Governor, and we will definitely be able to establish meritorious deeds. Han Shizhong thought secretly.
******
In the early morning of the next day, Han Shizhong, Duan Jingzhu and others bid farewell to the Qiyan Department Hebul Khan.
"Great Khan, I wonder if you can buy horses from other tribes? We'll probably come back in another month or two when we go back. Duan Jing said.
"No problem! But this time the price is twice as much as the last one, I don't know if you can provide it. Hebul Khan said.
"Good!" Duan Jingzhu nodded and agreed.
In fact, even if the price is doubled, it is not very high for Yangsan. If you are in the Central Plains, the price of a horse is much higher than the value of bricks, tea, and weapons. The Great Song Dynasty in the Central Plains could arm a million forbidden troops and provide the weapons needed by the millions of forbidden troops, but there were only tens of thousands of war horses, and those war horses were some old and weak war horses, many of which were unusable. Not to mention the Central Plains court, even Goryeo has weapons used by 200,000 soldiers, but there are not many war horses. Relatively speaking, there are many war horses on the grassland, but because the Khitans restrict the export of iron tools, their weapons are extremely scarce, and many grassland tribes use bone arrowheads, and they can't even use iron arrowheads, which can be seen. The jiāo of both sides can be said to take what they need, which is good for everyone.
Han Shizhong and others, under the watchful eyes of Hebul Khan, took 1,000 soldiers and 500 herdsmen on the grassland, and drove 30,000 war horses towards the distance.
"Great Khan, did the Han people want so many horses to form cavalry?" Next to a méng ancient humane.
"Yes, although the Han people are not good as a whole, there are heroes among them. That Metropolitan Governor of Liangshan should be a hero. I believe that if he gets these 30,000 war horses, he will definitely increase his strength. Hebul Khan said.
"The distance between the Han and our Méng ancient grasslands is too far, and the growth of their strength is also good for us, which can contain the Khitans and the nv-real people." Next to the méng ancient humane.
"Hmmm! But talking to these Han people these days, I found that these Han people are all ambitious and want to restore their Han glory days. You see, even the weak Han people have such ambitions, how can our heroes on the steppe lose to their Han people? Hebul Khan said.
"What does the Great Khan mean?" Next to a few méng ancients were surprised to say.
"Sooner or later, I will let the places where the sun shine become the grasslands of our méng ancients!" Hebul Khan laughed.
This Hebul Khan was Genghis Khan's great-grandfather, the ancestor of the Golden Family. In the original history, the strength of Hebul Khan was once very strong. He unified the begging tribe and killed all the beggars who dared to resist him. Because the oppression was too strong, he even led his troops against the Song Dynasty, when he was attacking the Song Dynasty with all his might, so he had to encircle Bul Khan, and even seal Bul Khan as the king of Méng.
And now, Hebul Khan has obtained a large number of weapons, and his ambition has been greatly improved, and his eyes have not only been set on the begging department, but on the entire Méng ancient grassland, and on the whole world.
He actually had all the ambitions of his descendant Genghis Khan in his heart, and he also wanted to conquer the world and turn the world into a steppe for the ancients.

Thirty thousand war horses galloped on the grassland, those shepherds were driving the horses, and Han Shizhong followed behind with the warriors.
"During this time, how is the situation in the Hedong Theater?" Han Shizhong and Lu Zhishen, two fellows, were riding on horses, and Han Shizhong asked.
"It's okay, those dog thieves in the court have surrounded and suppressed them several times, but they have all been stopped by us. The soldiers and horses of the imperial court, except for the Western Army, can still be used, and the others are vulnerable. However, there are too many factions in the Western Army, and everyone is reluctant to rush forward, so they are not much of a threat to us. Lu Zhishen laughed.
The Western Army is strong, but it is also an indisputable fact that there are many factions in the Western Army. Even if he is a seed master, although he has a very high prestige in the Western Army, he can only restrain his own seed army, and for the rest of the army, his binding power is not very high. Two days ago, the imperial court sent the Western Army to encircle and suppress the Liangshan thieves in Hedong, and the master Dao wanted to balance the Western Xia people, so he couldn't come in person, and sent a few generals, but several generals did not rush forward, and after he got the news, there was no other way except sighing.
If the soldiers and horses of the imperial court want to improve their strength, they need to be completely restructured, and it seems that it will not work by relying on the SI army in the northwest.
"That's good, the imperial court also attacked Liangshanbo, but it was also blocked by us." Han Shizhong said with a smile.
In fact, whether it is the Hedong Theater or Liangshanbo, there is a main reason for being able to block the imperial court's attack is the terrain. The Hedong Theater is full of high mountain checkpoints, which are very well defended. And Liangshanbo, surrounded by lakes, is full of reeds, and it is impossible for the imperial court to attack it. However, it is also very difficult for the two places to develop abroad, and it is far less convenient than Goryeo.
After walking on the grassland for two days, in the afternoon of this day, when everyone was about to rest, suddenly a number of figures appeared in the distance, looking at the dress, it seemed that it was a real person.
Han Shizhong was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Prepare to fight, prepare to fight!" ”
The soldiers of Liangshan became nervous one by one, and no one expected that they were about to reach the edge of the grassland, and they actually ran into the NV real cavalry, and they didn't know what the NV real cavalry was going to do.
The NV True Cavalry is extremely fast, and it is getting closer and closer to here, Han Shizhong has the best eyes, and he has already seen those NV True Cavalry raise their bows, as if they are about to!
"No, you can't let the nv real people rush over! These 30,000 war horses are very important, and they must not fall into the hands of nv real people! Come on, rush forward with me! Han Shizhong shouted.
"Brother, I'll go forward with you!" Lu Zhishen also shouted.
Over there, Yang Xiong was about to rush forward, Shi Xiu suddenly pulled Yang Xiong back, and Yang Xiong said angrily: "Brother, what are you pulling me for?" ”
Shi Xiu said: "Brother, they are going to block the real people, we quickly drive the war horse to the east, and strive to leave the grassland as soon as possible, enter the extreme northern forest, and then return to Goryeo." ”
Yang Xiong said: "They are all desperate? How can I stand idly by? ”
Shi Xiu said: "If my brother goes, who will lead the war horse to the east?" Don't we know the road? ”
Yang Xiong said: "There are also Tong Wei and Tong Meng in ......"
After finishing speaking, Yang Xiong found out that Tong Wei and Tong Meng had also killed the real person together, and couldn't help but snort.
"Brother, if we can take the war horse away, it is the greatest support for them. Let's get out of here. The reason why they rushed to the war horse was also to prevent them from taking away the war horses or scattering them! Shi Xiu said.
"Good!" Yang Xiong snorted angrily and said unpleasantly.
At that moment, Yang Xiong, Shi Xiu, Duan Jingzhu and others took their war horses to the east, while Han Shizhong, Lu Zhishen and others rushed towards the NV real cavalry.
The number of NV real cavalry is extremely large, it seems that there are about 3,000 people, so there is only a dead end in this hard charge. When he was getting closer and closer, Han Shizhong suddenly turned his horse's head and headed towards the south, and the Liangshan warriors also followed him to the south.
Han Shizhong went south, and he followed him closely.
Han Shizhong and the others rode all good horses given by the Méng ancients, and kept going south or west, and after following them for a while, they couldn't catch up with them, so they turned around and continued to chase Yang Xiong, Shi Xiu and others.
Seeing that these real people turned around, Han Shizhong hurriedly led people to catch up with these real people, and when he turned around and chased again, Han Shizhong and the others had already turned around.
"General Wanyan, are you sure that these people attacked the envoys sent by His Majesty?" In the real life of the nv, a man dressed as a literati asked.
"Surely yes, these are the people! The méng ancients on the grassland, even if they did not accept His Majesty's holy decree, would never dare to attack His Majesty's messenger! These people are not méng ancients at all, they are Song people! "That "General Wanyan" said.
"Huh? Song people? Could it be the Song people who occupied Goryeo? "Literati.
"Who else could there be besides those Song people?" General Wanyan gritted his teeth and said.
"These Song people came to the grassland, did they come to sell horses? I saw that they brought so many war horses, I'm afraid there were about 30,000! But how do they transport these horses back? "Literati.
"War Horse...... Oops! These people in front of us are just trying to lure us away and get their horses back smoothly! Ignore these people, let's go after the previous ones! "It's humane.
"Not bad!" The literati also said.
At the moment, the 3000NV real cavalry ignored Han Shizhong, Lu Zhishen and others, but turned around again and continued to chase east.
