The blind man had recently trained another batch of scouts, so he was very busy, and even when Li Yao came back, the blind man did not come as soon as possible, and it was not until Li Yao had dinner that the blind man hurried over!

Li Yao was reading a book in the study, and the guard came to report that the blind man was coming, and Li Yao said, "Let the blind man come in!" ”

The door of the study was pushed open, and Li Yao saw the blind man come in and asked, "Have you eaten?" ”

The blind man shook his head and said, "I haven't eaten yet, I've been training scouts in the field these days, and I haven't heard the news of my eldest brother's return, so I'm late!" ”

Li Yao stood up and patted the blind man on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "What are you doing when you see each other like this, haven't you eaten yet, I'll ask the cook to make a few side dishes, and in the whole pot of wine, let's drink one!" ”

The side dishes were quickly served, Li Yao picked up the wine glass, and said, "Don't say anything, let's do one first!" ”

After the two drank the wine, Li Yao asked, "Blind, how many scouts have you trained this time?" ”

The blind man said, "A regiment of scouts, three thousand!" ”

Li Yao said: "This time I will send 40,000 troops to harass the Liang army, have you trained these 3,000 scouts?" If you train well, pull these three thousand scouts up and exercise them! ”

The blind man nodded and said, "Okay, then pull all the three thousand scouts up, and I just happen to check the results of this training for a while!" ”

"That's right!" Li Yao said: "I'm going to go to the sphere of influence of the Great Prince of Yiguo for a while, just in case, you notify the scouts lurking there, and if you are in danger, secretly answer me!" ”

The blind man frowned and said, "Big brother, what are you doing in that place?" There is still a Yangyun force between us and the forces of the Great Prince of Yiguo, isn't this too dangerous! ”

Li Yao said with a smile: "There is nothing dangerous about this, I have my own arrangements, and I will set off for the territory of the Great Prince of Yiguo tomorrow, are the five thousand cavalry all in Daxian now?" ”

The blind man nodded and said, "Are the cavalry all in Daxian?" But big brother, have you really decided? Regardless of the Yangyun forces, the Great Prince of Yiguo is hostile to us! ”

Li Yao smiled: "I have five thousand cavalry, even if they are hostile, what can they do? What's more, Prince Yiguo is not a person who doesn't understand form, and I'm sure he will cooperate with me! ”

The blind man saw that Li Yao's mind had been decided, and he knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he said: "Big brother, then tomorrow our cavalry will send you over and wait outside, if you feel wrong, put a signal flare, and we will rush over immediately when we see the signal!" ”

The blind man took out a cannon-like signal flare from behind him and handed it to Li Yao, Li Yao picked up the signal flare, looked at it, and asked, "Is this a newly created signal flare from the Firearms Bureau?" ”

The blind man nodded and said, "Well, this is made by the King of Craftsmen according to the principle of rockets, and now the whole army is equipped!" Especially at night, it is very effective! ”

Li Yao said with a smile: "I didn't expect that there are a lot of small inventions in the Firearms Bureau, it seems that I will go to the Firearms Bureau another day, praise them!" ”

Li Yao stuffed the signal flare into his arms and said, "Okay, as long as the situation is not right, I will send a signal!" ”

After the blind man and Li Yao drank two more glasses of wine, the blind man said: "Big brother, then I will go back to the cavalry unit first, and tomorrow our five thousand cavalry will be waiting for you at the city gate!" ”

Li Yao nodded and said, "Okay, let's have a round at the city gate tomorrow!" ”

The next day, Li Yao came to the city gate with ten personal guards, the blind man and five thousand cavalry were already waiting at the city gate, Li Yao looked at the weapons of the cavalry and felt terrible, each cavalry was equipped with three rockets, four grenades, and a cavalry knife, the cost of this cavalry was definitely higher than the cost of a heavy cavalry! ”

It is said that heavy cavalry is a nightmare for light cavalry, Li Yao looked at the equipment of his own cavalry but did not think so, if the light cavalry equipped with ordinary knives and bows and crossbows could not cause damage to the heavy cavalry, because the crossbow arrows of the bow and crossbow could not penetrate the armor of the heavy cavalry at all, but the grenade was different, a grenade was thrown over, and even the people and horses could be directly overturned, Li Yao's light cavalry with speed and powerful firepower, it was absolutely easy to knock over a heavy cavalry, it seems that if the Liang Dynasty army had a heavy cavalry situation, Their own cavalry can completely fight against it!

Li Yao also stepped on the war horse at this time, waved his hand, and said, "Let's go!" ”

Five thousand cavalry, that formation is quite large, because it is still winter, so the cavalry is not very fast, Li Yao asked the blind man: "How long will it take for us to reach the territory of the Great Prince of Yiguo?" ”

The blind man said, "It will take us a day to get there, and we should be there in the evening!" ”

Li Yao nodded and said, "How many days of dry food are our cavalry?" ”

The blind man said: "Because our mounts are Dawan horses, the load and speed are very good, so our cavalry is equipped with five days of dry food, because there is no grass in winter, so we also bring black beans and hay for five days to the horses, if it is not winter, the horses have grass to eat, and our soldiers can carry ten days of dry food!" ”

Li Yao thought for a moment, how could five days of dry food be enough, and then asked, "How long do we have to enter the Yangyun sphere of influence?" ”

The blind man said: "Out of the scope of Da County, we have already entered Yangyun's sphere of influence, but big brother, you can rest assured, our five thousand cavalry have already visited Yangyun's sphere of influence, and they don't dare to compete with us at all except for closing the gate of the county seat!" ”

Li Yao said: "What about the power of the great prince of Yiguo? Have you ever been to their territory? ”

The blind man nodded and said, "We have indeed entered the sphere of influence of Prince Yiguo, but we have not stayed for a long time, because of the strength of our horses, so the county town under the influence of Prince Yiguo is also closed!" ”

Li Yao said: "The power of the great prince of Yiguo is closed, I guess it is because he is accumulating power, in fact, now Yangyun's power is the weakest, although he has the money of Yiguo, but the army is only 50,000 elite soldiers in the national capital and the city guards of more than a dozen counties under his jurisdiction, and he has seven princes competing with him for power, and there are us and the great prince of Yiguo outside, I guess Yangyun's life is not easy!" ”

The blind man asked, "Since Yangyun's power is so weak, then why do we still want to form an alliance with the Great Prince of Yiguo?" ”

Li Yao said: "I'm just afraid that the Great Prince of Yiguo will stab us in the back, so I must form an alliance with him, in order to focus all my energy on dealing with the army of the Liang Dynasty, we still have to temporarily win over the forces of the Great Prince of Yiguo!" ”

The blind man nodded and said, "Big brother, I understand!" (To be continued.) )
