Chapter Twenty-Eight: Forming the Cavalry (Grand Chapter)

"If that's the case, then you have to find it!"

"Yes, so I asked Zilong to dig it, who knew she was so reluctant......"

"Obviously, you didn't specify the specific location at all! What to say is east of Yecheng and south of Qucheng. How long will you let me dig up such a large area! Dig you sister-in-law, dig it! I'm not going to go again anyway! Zhao Yun grabbed Chu Yi's clothes and shook them.

Xun Yu frowned slightly: "Zizhang, don't you know the specific location?" ”

Chu Yi shook his head: "Well, I only know that it is north of Jiaodong, and I don't know the specific location." ”

Xun Yu groaned: "This is difficult to do, there are thousands of miles of land there, if you don't know the specific location, even if you send millions of people, you have to dig for a long time......"

"Yes, that's exactly why I didn't tell you in advance, after all, I just let Zilong dig and see, and I don't know much for sure."

The reality is not an online article, even if you know the general location, but it is not something that can be dug up casually.

Chu Yi thought for a while: "But if Zilong really doesn't want to, then let's let Zhang Yide dig it." ”

Zhao Yun glanced at Chu Yi: "I just met him when I came and told him about it, I guess if you let him dig like a headless fly, maybe he can beat you." ”

"Ahem, then let Second Master Guan be responsible." Although Guan Yu looks arrogant, he is the one with the best temper, as long as he makes it clear to him, he should accept it.

Xun Yu nodded: "Well, when we go to report to the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven will send Guan Yunchang if he agrees." It's better to give it a try than not to try. ”

Although gold is not a circulating coin, it is a hard currency at all times, and it is more reliable than a five-baht coin! Even if there is only a 1 in 10,000 chance, it is still worth giving it a try for the huge amount of gold mines in Chu Yikou.

……

"Surnamed Su, you are really shameless!"

"The surname is Zhang, you still have the face to say me!"

Under the city of Linzi in Qingzhou, Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping tore together. Their servants stood on both sides at a loss, looking confused.

What about the one who was promised to transport only 500 horses? I didn't expect that the other party actually smuggled two thousand horses on his back!

I want to sneak away! Phew, it's so stinky!

Liu Bei and Zhang Fei led people over: "Two, what's wrong?" ”

Zhang Shiping straightened his clothes: "Hmph, for the sake of Liu Yuanjun's face, I am a good man and don't fight with women." ”

Su Shuang smiled coldly: "Phew, it seems that you can beat me." ”

Zhang Shiping ignored Su Shuang and said with a smile: "Eh, I'll just say that Liu Yuanjun is definitely not an ordinary person, sure enough, it's only been a few years, and he has already become the governor of a state!" ”

Su Shuangbai glanced at Zhang Shiping, stepped forward, and said with a smile on his chest against Liu Beijiao: "Don't shoot on the back, at that time, it was Liu Yuanjun in my first glance!" Liu Yuanjun, although he is just a pawn of a trader, he also has the intention of serving the country from time to time, so as soon as he received your letter, he immediately sent more than 2,000 good horses! Do your part for the Son of Heaven. ”

Zhang Shiping pulled Su Shuang away, glared at the other party, and smiled: "And me, so am I." ”

"Well, the two of you are deeply pleased with your majesty's loyalty." Liu Bei smiled, these two thousand horses can be said to be the vast majority of Zhang and Su's belongings, he didn't see that the other party could be so loyal and willing for no reason, "Please come with me, Your Majesty wants to see you." ”

Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping glanced at each other, and there was a hint of surprise in their eyes: "The Son of Heaven wants to see us?" ”

Liu Bei smiled slightly: "Yes, the Son of Heaven heard that the two of them were generous and helpful, and he was very happy. The two of them are specially ordered to be rewarded in person. ”

The two couldn't help nodding: "Okay!" ”

Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei and said with a smile: "Third brother, you are responsible for taking care of these horses." ”

Zhang Fei patted his chest: "Big brother, don't worry!" ”

"Please, two of you." Liu Bei turned around and walked towards Linzi City.

Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping followed Liu Bei in a hurry, and they felt that their goal had been achieved.

Linzi appeared to be very prosperous under the successive governance of Xun Yu and Liu Bei. When Su and Zhang saw it, they also felt a little relieved in their hearts.

Everyone walked into the palace of King Qi, in front of Liu Xie's hall, Liu Bei bowed and said: "Minister Liu Bei, see Your Majesty, long live long live, long live, long live." ”

Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping didn't have time to think about it, so they followed Liu Bei to bow down.

The voice of the Son of Heaven rang out, with a hint of immaturity and majesty: "Flatten." ”

Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping saw the Son of Heaven for the first time, although they had long known that the other party was just a teenager, but they didn't expect that the other party actually had a trace of indescribable majesty.

Liu Xie smiled slightly: "I heard that you are Liu Aiqing's acquaintances, right?" ”

Zhang Shiping stammered: "Qi, Qiqi, Your Majesty, it was many years ago, when the grass people and grass people were selling horses, they were circling around Zhuo County, and they happened to meet Liu Yuanjun, and when they saw that Liu Yuanjun had a good temperament, they gave him some money. ”

Liu Bei smiled slightly: "That's right, it was these two who gave a lot of funding to the ministers at the beginning." When he was young, he was a prodigal wreck, and he liked to sound dogs and horses. After these two gave the ministers money, they quickly dispersed, but they also handed over to the two brothers, Guan and Zhang. ”

Liu Xie grinned when he heard this, and said to Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping: "Haha, in this way, I can get the two fierce generals of Guan Zhang, and I thank you a lot." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare." The two didn't know what Liu Xie's attitude was now, and they were a little submissive in front of him.

"By the way, I don't know what good things the two of you have offered to the Son of Heaven this time."

At this time, a young man sitting on the right side said with a smile.

Su Shuang was slightly stunned, looked at the young man slightly, and saw that the other party was handsome and had an extraordinary temperament, and asked tentatively: "Dare to ask this adult who ......?"

The young man smiled slightly: "I'm Chu Zizhang." ”

Zhang Shiping was shocked and said: "It turned out to be Lord Chu, and I have admired the name of Lord Chu for a long time." ”

Chu Yi smiled.

"I have brought two thousand horses each to present to Your Majesty." Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang said again.

Chu Yi turned his head to look at Liu Xie and chuckled: "A total of four thousand horses, Your Majesty, we can almost have more than a thousand cavalry." ”

"Huh? Is there only more than a thousand cavalry......" Liu Xie's face flashed with disappointment when he heard this.

Although it was an unintentional statement, Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping's faces suddenly appeared embarrassed, and the excitement that was still a little complacent suddenly became a lot colder.

Chu Yi immediately smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the two righteous men Su and Zhang are also kind-hearted. It is rare for them to be loyal and patriotic, and you should reward them well. ”

Liu Xie nodded: "Well, it's a reward." Su Shuang, Zhang Shiping, do you have any titles? ”

"Your Majesty, the grass people don't have a title yet."

"Then give you the title of chief of the princess, as for the official position...... Chu Aiqing, do you say there is any official position suitable for them? ”

"The minister thought that he could make them Taizhong doctors, and the official rank was a thousand stones...... However, the minister thought that there was another position that might be more suitable for them. ”

"Oh? Tell me about it. ”

"There are few horses in Qingzhou, and the two righteous men of Su and Zhang were originally horse dealers, and they were circling around the counties of Youzhou, and they had rich resources at hand, so the minister thought that they might as well serve as the royal horses."

Liu Xie thought for a while: "Yu Ma Cheng? What is the position of the Imperial Horse? ”

"It was an idea of the minister to set up the Imperial Horse Division, which was responsible for the procurement and supply of horses for the army. One person, two thousand stones, is the head of the Imperial Horse Division, and two more people, six hundred stones, are the auxiliary of the Imperial Horse Order. Please also ask Your Majesty to decide. ”

Liu Xie thought for a while, clapped his hands and said, "So that's the case, I think this proposal is good, so let's set up a royal horse division." ”

"What do you two think, are you satisfied with the title of a big chief, to be a comfortable Taizhong doctor in Linzi, or are you willing to serve as a royal horse, travel to Youzhou, and constantly send horses to the Son of Heaven, of course, the money for buying horses is paid by the imperial court. In the future, if Your Majesty can regain control of the world, then the two of you can also be regarded as Your Majesty's Xiao He's generation. At that time, it will be a supreme glory to advance to the marquis of Guannei and even the liehous, pass it on to future generations, and rest with the country! ”

The two looked entangled: "This ......"

They were actually a little disappointed, disappointed by Liu Xie's reward. They almost spent all their wealth, but they only exchanged for the title of a grand princess and a dispensable Taizhong doctor.

But if you think about it carefully, they seem to think that they are too important, and the thousands of horses they offer really don't seem to be very valuable to the Son of Heaven, and it seems reasonable that they can only get this little reward.

But Chu Yi gave them another choice, a chance to be promoted through meritorious service.

Everyone in the world knows that if the Son of Heaven wants to regain control of the world, he must fight, and cavalry is the strongest combat capability among all arms. So cavalry is indispensable, but a large number of horses are needed to raise troops, and they are not so easy to assemble.

If you can hang the post of Imperial Horse Cheng and provide war horses for the army, then the credit in the future will definitely not be small! Well done, it is a sure thing to worship the marquis!

Even if he can't be promoted to the secretary of state in the future, but this royal horse division specializes in providing war horses for the army, how can there be less benefits and oil and water!

Su Shuang said cautiously: "However, Jizhou Mu Han Festival, he ...... How can we provide His Majesty with war horses for a long time? ”

She and Zhang Shiping are both from Zhongshan, Jizhou, and Han Fu from Jizhou will not recognize Liu Xie. It is understandable to go south once or twice, but this long-term horse seller in Qingzhou, this fool can see that there is a problem!

Chu Yi said with a smile: "Youzhou is close to the sea, Qingzhou is also close to the sea, after you buy horses from Youzhou, you will ship to Qingzhou from Youbeiping or Yuyang County, or even Liaoxi County." The sea is vast, so how can you find out about the Hangeul Festival? Moreover, Han Wenjie is not satisfied with Wang Hua, and there will be a king to ask for it soon, so won't there be no risk for the two of them when they fall? ”

Seeing that the two were still a little hesitant, Chu Yi said again: "By the way, do you know Zhao Yun?" ”

"Zhao Zilong from Zhending County?"

"Yes, it's him."

"Returning to Lord Chu, I naturally know that she is the pride of our Changshan, and she has broken through to the ground level with only a young age. However, she joined the army two years ago to ask for Dong, and now she doesn't know where she is. ”

Liu Bei smiled and said, "Zhao Yun is working for His Majesty at the moment, do you want to see her?" ”

"Zhao Zilong is working for His Majesty?"

Zhao Yun was born in Haoqiang, and he is also known for his prestige in Changshan.

It turned out that in this year in history, Zhao Yunhui led the righteous servants of Changshan to defect to Gongsun Zan because of the recommendation of the people of Changshan State.

Zhang Shiping struggled for a long time in his eyes, but he still decided to seek wealth and danger, thinking of the son who had just turned nine years old at home, and decided in his heart that he must fight for a glorious future!

So he bowed with his five bodies and said loudly: "Okay, Zhang Shiping, a grass citizen, is willing to serve His Majesty as a dog and horse!" ”

Seeing this scene, how could Su Shuang retreat, and immediately followed: "The cheap concubine is too, I am willing to go to the soup for Your Majesty!" ”

A treacherous smile flashed in Liu Xie's eyes: "You two are wrong, it's not a grass people, it's not a concubine, it's a minister." ”

"Chen Su is willing to swear allegiance to His Majesty!"

"Minister Zhang Shiping is willing to swear allegiance to His Majesty!"

"Okay, then you can stay here in Linzi for a few more days, Zhao Zilong is also in the city at the moment, you can go to her to talk about your fellow villagers. And your seals, which will be given to you in the next few days! ”

"Minister, obey!"

Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping were about to retire, but Chu Yi suddenly said: "The matter of selling the official beard has never been done since His Majesty ascended the throne, and there will be no more in the future!" ”

“…… Thank you Chu Shizhong for informing. ”

……

Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally got these two people done, Chu Aiqing, Liu Aiqing, your credit." ”

Liu Bei smiled a little excitedly: "Now that we have the two of them, we can slowly form cavalry in the future!" ”

Liu Bei is a native of Youzhou, and he knows better than anyone the power of cavalry!

Qingzhou young horses, Su and Zhang sent 4,000 horses can be described as carbon in the snow! If it weren't for acting, Liu Bei wouldn't have made an indifferent appearance.

“…… By the way, Chu Aiqing, I just named them the eldest concubine, and they don't seem to be very satisfied? ”

"Naturally, I'm not satisfied." Chu Yi shook his head with a smile.

"Why? Isn't the eldest lord a low-ranking title? When I read the history books, I will not be awarded unless I have great merit. Why are they still not satisfied? ”

"The first emperor's pass." Chu Yi is slippery.

Liu Bei coughed: "Zizhang is cautious!" ”

Liu Xie waved his hand: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm right for anyone, why is it my father's fault?" ”

"I inherited the Qin system of the Han Dynasty, with twenty levels of titles, first-class officials, second-level Shangzao, third-level hairpins, fourth-level non-change, fifth-level doctors, sixth-level official doctors, seventh-level public doctors, eighth-level public passengers, ninth-level five doctors, tenth-level left chiefs, eleventh level right chiefs, twelve-level left watches, thirteenth-level middle watches, fourteenth-level right watches, fifteenth-level Shaoshangzao, sixteenth-level Dashangzao, seventeenth-level chariot chiefs, eighteenth-level Dashu chiefs, nineteenth-level Guannei Hou, and twentieth-level liehous. Your Majesty should know this. ”

"I know." Liu Xie nodded.

"It stands to reason that this eldest is the eighteenth level, which is considered to be very advanced, and it is only the marquis of Guannei and the liehou. It was supposed to be Guan Rong's title, but in the fourth year of Zhongping, the first emperor ordered that the Marquis of Guan Nei could spend money to buy it, only five million dollars! ”[.]
