The dinner party in the entire Gilded Pavilion can be said to be a very casual family banquet, without formality, without excessive etiquette, no one faces the identity of my emperor, but an easy-going, a feeling of being with your own family. And through Chu Luli, I also got to know many of them, such as this Luo Daxian, what I didn't expect was that his name was Luo Bo, so his nickname was naturally a big radish

But what made me other than him was his wife, the tall middle-aged woman, he turned out to be an excellent military strategist, listening to her talk about the arrangement of troops, the detours of the front and back, the feint attack and defeat and many other military theories, it can be said that she is simply a black queen, and she is extremely in favor of the idea of special operations I mentioned, but at the same time has a sharper opinion, that is, the fatal flaw of the poor mobility of the Chinese wolf

"Your Majesty, according to what you said, Hua Wolf is good at jungle warfare, mountain warfare and night warfare, its main task is to sabotage, force reconnaissance and assassination of the enemy, but how many places do not have this vast jungle, such as Liao and Tubo regions, there is no vast jungle for protection, the Hua Wolf soldiers in your hands will be exposed to the sun, and thus fall into passivity, but in the vast grassland during the day, these Hua Wolf soldiers you treasure can only be reduced to being wantonly slaughtered lambs." Chen Linghua, the wife of the old radish, said to me

"I've thought about this a long time ago, so for the grassland, the empire's current reconnaissance method is still trade infiltration reconnaissance, but Hua Wolf, I never dared to let them go deep into the grassland to conduct armed reconnaissance." I do have some resentment about not being able to go deep into the grasslands to conduct armed reconnaissance

"So Your Majesty, you need to build a special combat cavalry similar to Hua Wolf, and this army also doesn't need many people." Chen Linghua said

Chen Linghua's words then I fell into thinking, yes, when I first established Hua Wolf, I was limited by the special operations mode of later generations, there are a lot of advanced weapons in the wars of later generations, and there are more vehicles such as cars and planes, and Hua Wolf's combat battlefield was set in the jungle and mountains by me at the beginning, and the limitations of foot combat were particularly obvious in ancient times, it seems that I really need to set up a special cavalry force

"Is Madame interested in being an official?" I said to Chen Linghua

"What? You let my wife be an official? She's a woman! Old Radish said to me in surprise when he heard what I said

"Can't a woman be an official?" I said to the old radish, and then I turned to Chen Linghua and pointed to everyone in the banquet and said, "How many of these people are as proficient in the art of war as Senior Chen?" Including women. ”

"About twenty-seven or eight people, what, what are your majesty's plans?" Chen Linghua asked me

"War needs intelligence, and intelligence requires the analysis of military talents, I think, war intelligence and strategy formulation, just rely on a few generals on the front line of the battlefield can not achieve perfection, therefore, I need to have a group of operational staff in the rear, and you and them are a group of good choices. Chen Aiqing, tomorrow afternoon, take the people you said to the imperial study to meet the driver. "After saying that, I turned around and left, I must find Chu Luli to talk to Chu Luli about the planning and use of these talents

In the imperial study room in the afternoon of the next day, Zhou Tong, the secretary of the military department, Lin Chong, the commander of the Hua Wolf Governor, and Zhang Qing, the director of the military department, sat on a chair and listened to me talk about the idea of establishing a special combat light cavalry

"I have thought that the world is so big, our special operations, just relying on the Hua Wolf will not work, like the vast grassland of the Liao State, the combat of the Hua Wolf soldiers will be greatly reduced, and it is even very easy to be surrounded and annihilated by the enemy, so for the special operations of the plain and grassland countries, we need to establish a special light cavalry." I said to the three of them

"Your Majesty, what is the name of this unit? What are the equipment standards? Zhou Tong asked

"I've thought about this, the number of this army is called, Ghost Shadow, by the head of the Ministry of War Zhang Qing served as the first Ghost Light Cavalry Governor Belt, Ghost Shadow Full Establishment of 3,000 people, and one person and two horses, each soldier with two sabers, a simple knife, a folding bow, one hundred arrows, one folding hand crossbow, one hundred crossbow arrows, each hundred people are a small team, with five sniper crossbows, ten mortars, five cavalry runs, the source of soldiers is deployed by the Ministry of War, and the primary selection is responsible for the selection and training of Hua Wolf."

"The ministers obey."

"This unit, like the Hua Wolf, belongs to the special forces for the reconnaissance, sabotage and assassination of the enemy, and all equipment is specially supplied by the Ordnance Department. After the three Aiqing returned, they immediately began to prepare for this matter, and we must make this ghost light cavalry force have strong combat effectiveness as soon as possible. ”

"The ministers obey."

"Your Majesty, Chen Linghua is here with the people from Guigu." At this time, Little Beanzi came in and said to me

"Let them in." I said

"Your Majesty has a decree, Xuan Chen Linghua and others will meet ~"

"Chen Linghua, a woman, and the people in the village see my emperor, long live, long live, long live." Chen Linghua and the twenty-seven Guigumen people came in and bowed to me

"Chen Aiqing, you are already an official of the imperial court, why do you still call yourself a people's woman." I said to Chen Linghua with a smile

"Your Majesty, the woman is a woman, and yesterday was just a drunken talk, how can a woman really become an official."

After listening to Chen Linghua's words, I didn't answer her words, and turned to Zhou Tong and said: "Zhou Aiqing, from today on, I will set up the Imperial General Staff with you, and you will be the first chief of the General Staff of the Imperial General Staff. ”

Everyone was very surprised by my decision, and Zhou Tong did not immediately receive the order, but asked me: "Your Majesty, there are women among them!" ”

"What's wrong with women, can't women participate in the military? As long as they have the ability, what's not to do with being a staff officer, Lao Zhou, you have to expand your thinking. ”

"Yes, the old minister is stupid."

"Your Majesty, do you really let a few of our women be officials?" Chen Linghua still doesn't believe my words

"My will has been made, can there still be a fake, okay, Zhou Aiqing, you take them to arrange."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the ministers are retired."
