Zhang Liao selected knights from the guard camp to supplement the Black Lion Capital, and restored the establishment of 1,500 people, three guards and one capital. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

In the guard camp, there are retired disabled veterans who are responsible for collective training, which are divided into five categories, one is guards, who require excellent arm strength, two are pikemen, three are archers, four are knights, and five are sailors.

Half of them are cavalry, and even other reserve forces, including guards, are trained as knights.

Of course, the Han Kingdom couldn't get so many horses for them to train, and it was too wasteful, so their training method was to ride a wooden horse, which was actually not a wooden horse, that is, a log across two stones, so that they could maintain their balance according to their own ability. Of course, they were heavily armoured and rode on it with weapons in hand.

After passing this training, they will ride real horses, which are Mongolian horses, and a total of 3,000 horses will be allocated to the guard camp, and when they are skilled, they will be equipped with a three-piece set (horseshoe, stirrups, and saddle) for chopping, picking up objects, riding and shooting, and riding and other training.

The cavalry is a class of troops, which pays attention to talent, some people ride from small to large, and they are just cannon fodder, and some people only ride for half a year and become elite.

And some of them are the cavalry of the Feng Kingdom, and some of them are the brainwashed Yan Hu, these Yan Hu were almost wiped out, and now there are only 1,000 people left, of which 200 are good at riding and are sent here to train these cavalry.

After being brainwashed, these Yanhu believed that the value of their existence was to serve the Han Kingdom, and if the Han Kingdom did not need them, they would have no value of existence.

The weapon of the more pawn battalion is not the ring head knife, the last time Zhu Xia went to the battlefield, after resting for a night, his right arm was extremely sore, and he specially opened the mold according to the appearance of the 65-style cavalry saber in the later generations, and carried out mass production.

After all, the way eutectic steel is handled is very troublesome, and it is too dangerous to use on these reserve forces.

This saber facilitated the cavalry's "pumping" and "wiping" movements in high-speed charges, so as not to injure the arm, and at the same time carried out the production of heavy and light arrows.

Heavy arrows are used in melee combat, and although they have a short range, they have a strong impact and can shoot through armor!

Light arrows are thin and light arrows that are used for long-range shooting, maximizing range and killing enemies where they can't reach us.

In addition to the reform of weapons, for the knights who had mastered the ability of riding and archery, Zhuxia also selected the best weavers from various chambers of commerce to weave yarn clothes from raw silk as the armor of these light cavalry.

Because, if the raw silk is woven tightly enough, the arrow will not be able to shoot through, wear this kind of gauze on the body, the arrow will shoot up, even if it is shot into the flesh, as long as the gauze can be pulled out, so that it is much easier to treat the wound, and the casualties can be minimized.

The standard equipment of the heavy cavalry is: one cavalry saber, one cavalry spear, two pots of heavy arrows (24 pieces), cuirass, and helmet with mask.

The standard configuration of the light horse is: five pots of light arrows (120), gauze clothing.

Because of the water-driven reeling car, Zhuxia can reduce a lot of labor costs, and in a few months, using the assembly line mode, Zhuxia has saved 3,000 yarn clothes.

Of course, Zhuxia could not follow often, so let the weavers help train a group of apprentices, and when the apprentices could replace them, they were released, and the weekly salary of the apprentices would be divided into 10% according to the custom.

Of course, in addition to the equipment, the training and discipline are also very strict.

First of all, the military law is based on the Nine Slashing Method established by Zhu Xia at that time.

Those who do not obey orders will be beheaded, those who do not bravely move forward, those who retreat without permission, those who bewitch the hearts of the army, those who kill each other, those who betray their families and defect to the enemy, those who bully women, those who kill good and impostor, and those who plunder wealth and private pockets!

Based on these nine slashing laws, we will expand and revise them to ensure discipline in the army.

Training, on the other hand, pays attention to an order and prohibition, cultivates the tacit understanding between the soldiers, and trains the soldiers to become well-trained elites.

There are Yanhu, plus a group of prisoners of war sent by Zhong Yi, these people are about 5,000 people, who are responsible for horse training and horse breeding on Yongchun Island, and at the same time, they need to bring out a group of apprentices every year, and those who perform well can be rewarded to the women of the Yanhu Department.

In fact, the cavalry gun can only be used once, if you want to use it twice or three times, even if your arm can stand it, the horse can't stand it, the real use is the cavalry saber, and the cavalry saber is not for you to take to cut, but more effortless, more do not hurt the arm of the pumping and wiping.

Zhang Liao's character destined his troops to be only heavy cavalry, and the one he chose was naturally the heavy cavalry with the best results.

Just as he was leading the soldiers back to the camp, a soldier reported: "Commander, we have found traces of stirrups on these Yan riding horses. That's why they can ride and shoot just like us. ”

Zhang Liao's face became serious, and he said, "Take me to have a look."

The group walked near a horse, Zhang Liao bent down to take a look, and found that it was indeed a prototype similar to their stirrups.

"Sure enough."

Zhang Liao's face was calm, he felt a little wrong that day, in addition to their Han cavalry having a three-piece suit to ride and shoot, Yan Cavalry can actually do it, which is only those nomads who have grown up on horseback since childhood.

In this way, the combat power of the Yan cavalry needs to be reconsidered!

At this moment, the guards came to report that there was a Yan envoy outside, which caused the captured knights and Hong Tao to come.

Zhang Liao had already learned what had happened from Zhuxia's letters, and knew the other party's intentions, so he was led into the camp, and Zhang Liao was responsible for receiving the Yan envoy.

When Yan Envoy walked into the camp with his head held high, he looked up and saw that Zhang Liao was just a young man, which was a little inconsistent with the image of a strong man or a wise old general in his mind, how could a young man defeat Hong Tao, who had been on the horse for half his life.

He immediately felt that this was the contempt of the Han Kingdom for the Yan Kingdom, and he originally wanted to leave with his sleeves brushed up, but considering the order of the king, he could only say with a dark face: "Go, call your general out!" A general who is about to die in the country, where can he have such a big shelf. ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Liao suddenly had an ominous premonition, squinted his eyes and asked, "Death of the country?" It's your Yan country that should be destroyed, right? ”

The Yan envoy suddenly woke up, knowing that he had leaked his mouth, but he was not angry at the other party's provocation, and sneered: "I have 60,000 people in Yan Kingdom, what about your Han Kingdom?" The land of one county is only 100,000 households, and the land of the five counties of my Yan country is 700,000 households, and the country of Dian is just a puppet, which means that my Yan country has 800,000 households.

What about your Han Kingdom? A small country in a desolate land, dare to go against my Yan country? To scare us? I dreamed, I let go of the soldiers of Yan Kingdom, otherwise I will raze your Han Kingdom to the ground. ”

800,000?

What a pity!

The Han Kingdom is not 100,000 households, but a full 500,000 households, although they have not been fully absorbed and digested, but they are also 500,000 households!

It's just that the standing army is far from comparing.

Zhang Liao analyzed the situation of the enemy and us, and found that at present, the Han army has 7,000 standing troops, 3,000 banner soldiers, and more than 20,000 people in the guard camp.

At present, Jishitian is almost 5 million acres, mainly distributed around the county seat of Hanguo, as well as on both sides of the road, because of the hills of Liaodong, Wuci County and Benxi County around the land is relatively small.

There are nearly 1 million mu of military meritorious fields, of which 80 percent of these fields are those that are more camped, and because there are too many acres of soldiers' fields, 10% of the agricultural tax is symbolically collected. There are 100,000 acres of Gewu Field, and all of them are within the scope of Han County.

As for the 50,000 mu of land under the rule of officials, all of these fields were replaced under the rule of the county seat where he was an official; according to the regulations, the fields under the administration of officials can only be below the middle field, not the upper fields, and moreover, after all the water conservancy facilities such as ditches and waterwheels under their jurisdiction have been perfected, water conservancy facilities can be built in the specially set aside fields under the administration of officials.

Each county has planned a Zhitian area, which means that within the jurisdiction of the entire county, this area must be the last to build water conservancy facilities, which is the responsibility of the people of the Imperial Historical Tower, and it is convenient for them to settle each harvest.

Because of the Yan Kingdom, the construction of Anxian County was stopped; Start the three-shift method, urgently open up the Liaodong Canal at this stage, and wait for the rest to have the opportunity; The construction of Liaoxi County has been stopped, focusing on the emergency construction of Shanhaiguan.

The most serious thing is that the Han State did not scare the other party, and the envoy just said that he leaked his mouth, Yan Hou had already raised the heart of destroying the Han State.

"Pay the ransom and compensation, a total of 4,000 gold, either give the money or get out! There is no second way, don't tell this commander how many people there are in Yan Kingdom, just a group of local chickens and dogs! Also, this commander is the one who defeated Hong Tao. ”

Zhang Liao thought about it in his heart, and his face was still not afraid, not to mention 60,000 armor soldiers, even if he had seen the scene of millions, but it was a pity that the current national strength of the Han State was not the opponent of the other party, although he was sure of victory, but that kind of victory was only a miserable victory.

"I want to see Hanhou!"

"The king himself said, either give the money or get out."

"You!"

"How?"

"Does your country really plan to make a mortal enmity with Yan Kingdom?"

"So what?" Zhang Liao didn't raise his eyelids, he was disgusted with this kind of threat without nutrition, he had already said that he was going to kill my Han family, but now he became a mortal enemy one by one! Whether to take him for a fool or to take himself for a fool.

"Good, good!" The Yan envoy nodded fiercely, and then said: "I will only redeem the remaining two thousand cavalry, and the compensation will be for next time." I thought to myself, next time? Next time is your time of death.

"Two thousand gold?" Zhang Liao asked impatiently.

"No, I only brought a thousand gold, and I'll give the rest next time."

"I don't care who you want, the four thousand gold must be paid off at one time!"

The Yan envoy was unwilling to say: "How can there be such a reason?"

"Love or not. Do you want to bring this thousand gold back? Zhang Liao asked casually.

Although the Yan envoy is unwilling, but on other people's territory, the initiative is also in the hands of the other party, even if he is unwilling, he can only be ruthless in his heart, and said: "It's so heavy, give it to you first." Leave! ”

After leaving the camp, he gave orders to the two attendants, put two wooden boxes in the camp, and left in a hurry.
