Chapter 144: Dongfang Xian is the vanguard

Chapter 144 Dongfang Xian is the vanguard

"General! A certain family is also willing to be a pioneer! "Yang Shihou has just asked for battle, and Gao Siji over there can't wait to follow him. In fact, Gao Siji is also a dumb eater of Coptis chinensis, and he knows that he has suffering.

He asked himself how strong his martial arts were, but in fact, his martial arts were also strong, the fourth hero of the five generations of the Tang Dynasty! Does the force value need to be said? But after surrendering Li Cunhuan, it didn't take a few days. was also stabbed in the back, although no one said it in front of him, he still knew that some people had secretly called him a slave with the third surname behind his back.

(Gao Siji was first a subordinate of Li Congwei, and then took refuge in Li Keyong, and surrendered to Li Cunhuan before, although the three have the same surname, but the forces are different, and it is not wrong to call them three surnames.) )

Because he was not welcomed, Gao Siji has always been lurking, and it was not until soon after that Li Cunhuan appreciated his bravery. As a result, the first credit was to rescue and overthrow the Jinyi Guard, the commander of Chen Changhuo and his family. Duan Ziyao and Pang Kongming, these old people have a good relationship with Chen Changhuo, so they naturally don't want to see Gao Siji.

And Zhou Dewei and Fu Cunxian, the Hedong faction, don't treat Gao Siji very well. As a result, Gao Siji can only fight for his position now, and hug Li Cunhuan's thighs tightly.

Li Cunxiao was also eager to try when he heard this, but he was afraid of his identity, and he was now a deputy envoy of the festival, and he was actually reduced to being a pioneer for Fu Cunxian, which was too faceless!

"No need! I've already thought about the candidate for the pioneer officer! Li Cunhuan shook his head indifferently and said in a resolute tone.

"Who!" Yang Shihou asked with some resentment.

"Bold!" Sha Yuke took a step forward, stroked the Tang knife on his waist, and scolded angrily.

Yang Shihou realized that he was too rude at this time, and hurriedly knelt down on his knees, "The official is rude, ask the general for forgiveness!" ”

"Get up!" Li Cunhuan glanced at Yang Shihou deeply, "Pay attention next time!" ”

"Yes!" Yang Shihou hurriedly responded.

Li Cunhuan nodded at this time and said, "The vanguard officer will be Dongfang Xian!" ”

Dongfang Xian was already a famous general of Lu Long in the era of Li Kuangchou, but since Li Kuangchou died, he has behaved very low-key and does not leave the mansion easily. Li Cunhuan didn't say it, everyone almost forgot about this 'former dynasty' veteran, but everyone was also a little strange why Li Cunhuan used Dongfang Xian.

You must know that although Li Cunhuan nominally inherited Li Kuangchou's position, he had important ministers, and which one was an important minister in Li Kuangchou's era? Of course, there are important ministers in the era of Li Kuangchou, who are almost dead. But it is more that Li Cunhuan can isolate them, reduce their influence on Lu Long, and strengthen the power of his own lineage.

This kind of thing that you know by heart, although you have not been able to talk to it, you still know it. But I don't know why Li Cunhuan suddenly promoted this only remaining veteran of the Li Kuangchou era. Is the wind going to change?

When Li Cunhuan proposed this appointment, he estimated the thoughts of his subordinates, smiled, and said: "I am ready to let Dongfang Xian be the soldier and horse envoy of Jian'an Prefecture. ”

Oh! It was only at this time that everyone understood that Li Cunhuan's doing this could also be said to be exile, or it could be said to appease Li Kuangchou's old heart. Jian'an Prefecture has transportation in Silla, Bohae, and Andong, and it is foreseeable that it will be a good place for oil and water in the future. The only bad thing is that it is far away from the political center Youzhou, whether it is Dongfang Xian himself or his descendants in the future, it is easy to get rich and rich, but it is probably not easy to re-enter the political center of Lulong.

"Lord, you seem to have overlooked one thing!" Han Mengyin, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

"Oh?" Li Cunhuan looked at Han Mengyin with a suspicious expression.

Han Mengyin immediately sat upright, and he had to behave when it was time to behave, "The black-clothed army went to Andong to fight, although it can have a certain strength to seize Jian'an Prefecture, but if it goes south to fight, there will be no black-clothed army!" There are no cavalry in the hands of the lord! It is not good for the war. ”

As soon as Han Mengyin said this, the people who were still concerned about the issue of the pioneer officer going to Dongfang Xian immediately reacted. Li Cunhuan has a characteristic, that is, he does not vigorously develop the cavalry army too vigorously, Li Cunhuan's trump card unit, the loyal and filial army, has reached 15,000 people, but there are only 1,000 light cavalry among them.

The broken army is good, one person and one animal, but not all horses, most of them are horse mules, that is, mules born from horses (donkeys are called donkey mules), which generally inherit the characteristics of horses, slightly smaller than horses, and a little short-tempered and understanding. The most important thing is that in terms of strength and endurance, it is greater than that of a donkey or a horse. The only not-so-good thing is that the service life is only twenty years. However, it is also suitable for the use of the broken army, after all, the broken army is a hoplite, and the mule comes with a strong weight and endurance ability, which is very suitable for the use of the broken army. Even when necessary, it is possible to ride a horse and mule on a rapid march, after all, horses and mules have inherited some of the characteristics of horses, and although they are not as fast as real horses, they are also much faster than donkeys.

Let's talk about the rest of Lulong, that is the local army. Over the years, Li Cunhuan has suppressed the development of local armies, and in terms of defense, he has been more concerned with the realization of the regimental training system. At the beginning, the surname set by Li Cunhuan for regimental training was militia, but some people have secretly called themselves Hebei soldiers in time.

Because they have a lot of similarities with the government soldiers, the government soldiers are tax-free and bring their own weapons, and they are also tax-free, but half of them are exempt, and they also have a small monthly allowance. Although they also bring their own weapons, they have to buy standard weapons from the nearby Ordnance Department, but unfortunately they are still infantry.

Not to mention the local army, since Li Cunhuan locked their money bags, plus their role has become more to defend the city, although the soldiers and horses are elite, they are more infantry.

As a result, at this time, everyone suddenly discovered that it seemed that Li Cunhuan did not have a cavalry force of more than 1,000 people under his command except for the Flying Tiger Army in Li Cunxiao's hands.

Of course, if Li Cunhuan combined the cavalry from all over the country, there should be about five or six thousand cavalry, but this will take a run-in time, and now the time does not allow it.

Just when everyone was secretly anxious, Li Cunhuan smiled confidently and said, "This is simple! ”

"Is that easy? You're an idiot! The thought could not help but pop up in everyone's hearts, and a few impulsive people almost said it.

ps: What, thank you for the rewards for each period of time, and thank you to the snow white shoe boy, Mu Mu! Giggle! Giggle! However, I also deeply regret what happened to you, and I will compensate for the three more today! What, do you have any recommendation votes?
