In the blink of an eye, it has been the middle of September, there have been two heavy snowfalls here in the dungeon, the weather is very cold, the temperature is very low, Han Xu estimates that the temperature must be below minus 20 degrees, the snow around it has not melted at all, the fort walls of the dungeon are all pressed by the snow, or people use brooms to push the snow away, barely maintaining the outer boundaries of the dungeon, the snow is so deep, it is already very difficult for people to travel.

Gao Xiaosan has to go to Fengji Fort every few days, Fengji Fort is now garrisoned a lot, it is very convenient for him to buy materials, it is not very convenient for the cavalry to practice hedging on this side of the dungeon, once it snows, it has to stop, in some places the snow is very deep, the snow can not reach the belly of the horse, and there is no way to practice riding formation, Han Xu and others found an original threshing floor outside an abandoned village, and laboriously cleared the snow, so the training continued.

The horses are still very fat and strong, unlike other places, Han Xu treats war horses more than ordinary people to his own sons, and takes care of them very carefully every day, concentrate, grass bunches, salt, and regular washing, although each horse has to run almost every day, it has never run thin, this is the benefit of a small group of elite soldiers, the general Ming army or the northern and eastern captives will definitely put the horses in the stables to rest, and they will not use the horses easily until the beginning of spring.

After the bloody night in the ancestral hall, it was very calm everywhere, dozens of people were killed, a battalion and a thousand guards were missing, and more than 100,000 goods disappeared, as if none of these things had happened in Shenyang and Liaoyang.

No one tracked down, and there was no rumor, only Fengji Fort sent some sentry horses out to look for it, of course, the sentry riders could not find anyone, and the top never urged, it seems that Wang Dayong, the thousand president, is just an ordinary soldier, it doesn't matter if he gets lost, no one cares about it at all.

On the surface, there must be an undercurrent surging underneath, but Han Xu didn't pay attention to it at all, he practiced here every day as usual, and some people came from Fengjibao and Liaoyang respectively, all in the name of inspecting and passing by, seeing that Han Xu was not the slightest abnormality here, the training was not embellished, it was obvious that he was here to investigate, but he praised a few words before he could leave, after coming here a few times, he did not check the slightest inappropriateness, but Han Xu's reputation became much louder, everyone knew that Han Xu, a little soldier, was still forging ahead after being promoted, and he practiced every day.

The only thing that worries Han Xu is these people below, he has never given these people a holiday, and none of them are allowed to leave without permission, everyone has been given some rewards, and they are not allowed to send them home, and they will be sent back by the high school and the primary school in batches, so that there is not much movement, and they will not be targeted, but Han Xu understands in his heart that although the treatment is good, he has been practicing for a long time without collecting these nights, as if the bowstring has collapsed too tightly, if he doesn't think about it in the near future, the spirit of the Dunbao army may be unstable.

On September 19th, a sentry rode from Fengji Fort, the snow was melting outside the fort, half of the sentry was thrown mud, embarrassed, but when passing by, I saw that the garrison soldiers and horses were still riding horses on a flat ground to hedge, this sentry did not understand anything, but I felt that the queue of these cavalry was very neat, and it was rare to see cavalry practice in this dense formation, the general cavalry, either with the infantry, placed on both wings, if there was a flaw in the enemy formation, it would rush over to break the formation, or the cavalry chased after the infantry defeated, There are only a few cavalry battles between each other with cavalry hedging and fighting, the scale is not large, all kinds of weapons are on the same page, this Daxingbao here weapons seem to be very single, the cavalry array is too dense, this sentry horse looked at it and smiled crookedly, such a dense cavalry formation, if you encounter a large group of archers to shoot, I am afraid that you will be shot into a hedgehog in three or two strokes, this Han Xu is really a military soldier, he does not understand the art of war at all, although he is diligent, but it seems to be blind training.

"What, Jingluo wants to patrol to Fushun Pass?"

The sentry sent the news and left, it was inconvenient to keep people here in the dungeon, Gao Xiaosan gave the sentry a string of small money, sent a few cakes, the man left happily, Han Xu changed his clothes and armor, and was about to go to the school field to practice with everyone, this time the riding formation has come out a little, the distance between the teams is maintained well, and the distance between the war horses between each other is also very dense, and there is a feeling of thunder when the impact is also a little overwhelming, but there are many details that are found every time you practice, and you have to solve them slowly. It is estimated that it will take at least half a year for this cavalry formation to really take shape, and if you want to train the elite cavalry who will not return to a hundred battles, more than one year is the least.

This thing, it is simple to say, it is very difficult to do, Han Xu is also constantly groping, Shicai is to record his experience with a pen in the house, so as not to forget some details for a long time, but here I only have a brush, he writes ten twists, and the bottom is full of old and coarse, Gao Xiaosan does not recognize many words, let alone writing, Han Xu has to do it himself, fortunately, He Qinglei was arrested by him as a soldier, grinding ink and paper for him, this guy doesn't know anything about writing and ink at all, seeing that Han Xu can really write, he shouted and praised on the spot, Han Xu blushed when he heard this, and drove this guy out, and just as he was about to go out, Gao Xiaosan brought this amazing news.

"Last time, Jingluo didn't send the former soldier Yan Mingtai to Hupi Station, passing through us, the officials in the big red official robes were crying with tears." Han Xu said contemptuously: "It's scary to go to a tiger skin post like this, Jing Luo actually wants to go to Fushun Pass?" ”

"Exactly." Gao Xiaosan said with a smile: "Jingluo is really good, when the news spreads, the people of Liaodong will be angry." Dongyu is actually nothing to be afraid of, our old Gao family has been neighbors with them for generations, and I haven't seen them grow two more arms......"

Gao Xiaosan chattered a lot of nonsense, but Han Xu was still surprised by Xiong Tingbi's decisiveness and courage, and didn't drive this guy out.

Last month, not long after Xiong Tingbi first arrived in Liaoyang, he was busy asking for salaries and soldiers, sending war horses, building weapons, and slaughtering hundreds of cattle to reward the three armies.

At the same time, Xiong Tingbi sent the civilian officials around him to begin to inspect everywhere, Yan Mingtai is the original soldier Beidao, the third grade civil official, if Xiong Tingbi and the governor of Liaodong are not there, the entire Liaoshen area is supposed to be under the control of the military preparation, and the deputy general of the general army also needs to listen to his military orders, how did he expect this person to be as timid as a mouse, the tiger skin post is very close to Shenyang, and the Dongyu sentry cavalry has not penetrated into the territory recently, but Yan Mingtai is afraid of the enemy like a tiger, and he cried halfway to the tiger skin post and returned, Han Xu and others saw it with their own eyes in the dungeon, Everyone sneered at this civil official and despised him completely.

Now Xiong Tingbi actually wants to personally patrol with the respect of the strategy, and clearly said that he will go to Fushun Pass, if this matter spreads, the morale of the entire army and the people will be very different.

In fact, the current strength of Liao Town in the Ming Dynasty, the attack is insufficient and the defense is more than enough, the important thing is morale and military discipline, Xiong Tingbi is a big strategy in the line, and the small details are also very clear, the first civilian official in the late Ming Dynasty to know the soldiers, worthy of the name.
