Show sincerity, that's how it should be. But there is no strength to greet it. And how to impress Zhang Song?

Therefore, Kou Feng decided to show the military power of the Chu State. It's the Iron Horsemen, and the Crossbowmen.

So far, Zhao Yun has raised 30,000 iron horsemen, and he has been practicing for a while. According to Kou Feng's knowledge, the recruits were able to get started quickly because of the help of stirrups.

The previous 10,000 iron horsemen also became more and more exquisite because of the help of the stirrups.

Although the crossbowmen are a little worse, after all, the recruitment time is very short. But if you can show the firing power of the repeater. It can also work wonders. That's all Kou Feng is all about.

With such power, can't it deter Zhang Song? On the one hand, it is like the sincerity of the spring breeze, and on the other hand, it is a response to a powerful force. I'm afraid that Zhang Song won't obediently send it to the west, picture?

As a monarch, the first thing is to show the importance of great talent. If it is insufficient, it is not indispensable to supplement it with might.

In an instant, Kou Feng had a decision.

"Come on, summon Zhao Yun, the general of the town, and Chen Da, the general of the town army, to see Gu." Kou Feng adjusted his posture and ordered.

"No. , the guard outside the door promised to say.

Not long after, Zhao Yun, the general of Kou Feng's town, and Qi Qiqi, the general of the town army, walked in. Although the two belong to different places, the soldiers and horses under their command are also very different.

But they were all stationed in Xiangyang, one as the town army, and the other as the town. All have the meaning of Gong Wei Kou Feng. Therefore, after the guards went to report, both of them arrived at about the same time.

After meeting at the door, they walked in together.

During this time, Zhao Yun got Kou Feng's sharp weapons, stirrups, and horseshoes. And recruited 20,000 iron horsemen, and 30,000 troops before and after.

It was when I practiced hard, and I looked a little tired.

Chen Da is the same, and now has 10,000 soldiers. It is Kou Feng's trump card, and even the crossbowmen are full of energy.

"Meet Your Majesty." After the two entered the study, they immediately greeted Dao.

"Excuse me. Sit. Kou Feng waved his hand and said more casually. Everyone has been very familiar with it for many years.

"No." The two of them said yes and sat down separately.

"It's been a while since you've been in the army, how's it going?" After the two sat down, Kou Feng didn't talk nonsense and said bluntly.

Zhao Yun and Chen Da glanced at each other, and finally Zhao Yun spoke first, hugged his fists and said: "Your Excellency, the soldiers are working very hard now, and they are making rapid progress. ”

Kou Feng nodded when he heard this, similar to the news he had gotten. After pondering for a moment, Kou Feng said, "Can the former veteran soldiers show a momentum comparable to that of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry during training?" ”

This is necessary to ask, if Zhao Yun can't do it. Then you can only let the broken barracks go. The momentum of breaking the barracks, Kou Feng had to admire.

"The minister has never seen the Xiliang Iron Horse, so it's hard to say. But if you choose 2,000 elite soldiers, it is not far from the cavalry of the original general. Zhao Yun's eyes were full of energy, and he said very confidently.

Stirrups, horseshoe dual-purpose things, are too much help for cavalry. The effect of the horseshoe can only be revealed during expeditions.

But the effect of the stirrups helped the cavalry too much, too much. In the past, Zhao Yun had trained 10,000 cavalry, which was worthy of a battle.

Now with stirrups, it is even more powerful. Very brave.

Zhao Yun is confident that if he chooses 2,000 of them, it will be enough to compete with the former Gongbei Zhan White Horse Army. Of course, it won't necessarily be a big win.

It's just that I can compete.

After all, Gong Beizan's cavalry is an elite soldier in the north, and it is not something that can catch up in a short time.

But this has already made Kou Feng very satisfied, and he was immediately overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Okay, immediately select two thousand cavalry and train them strictly." Three days later, a military parade will be held. Show your face once in front of Zhang Song in Yizhou.

Don't let Lone down. ”

"Your Excellency can rest assured, the minister will definitely live up to expectations." Zhao Yun also said solemnly.

Kou Feng nodded, and then set his eyes on Chen Da.

"Your Majesty, although the recruitment time of the crossbow soldiers is short, but the minister has selected some of the veterans, not to mention that to show the military, the crossbow is enough. Crossbowmen, counterexamples are secondary. Chen Da replied without Kou Feng's questioning.

This idea coincides with Kou Feng's.

"Good. Three days later, the three armies were to be reviewed. crossbows, cavalry, and a battalion of broken troops. Prepare well. Kou showed joy on the cover and applauded.

"No. , Zhao Yun, Chen Daqi Qi should promise.

Because of the urgency of time, there were only three days to pass, so after the two received the order, they quickly said goodbye and left.

After the two left, Kou Feng's heart finally let go.

He couldn't help but smile on his face and muttered: ...... Cao Cao, Cao Cao. You let Zhang Song go, for whatever reason. It's always a big loss. Now it's cheaper for me. If it goes well, Shu is mine. ……

The look was indescribably pleasant.

checked the leak once, and it was a mouth that flowed out of Cao Cao's fingers, which was a very refreshing thing.

Kou Feng arranged for Zhang Song to live in the mansion.

Zhang Song was served by the maids, after bathing and changing clothes. I came to the study and sat down. I took out the west in the sleeve, figure.

This one is newly painted, and it all depends on Zhang Song's memory to draw it.

Now Zhang Song is also hesitating whether to dedicate this to Kou Feng. It stands to reason that Kou Feng's sincerity is really sufficient, much more than Cao Cao.

Let's not talk about Cao Cao's contempt for him. At least Zhang Song thinks it's contempt. said that Cao Cao received him because of Liu Zhang's face.

He was Liu Zhang's envoy, so Cao Cao entertained him heavily.

But Kou Feng is just aimed at his person, not Liu Zhang.

Of course, Zhang Song didn't know that Kou Feng had taken the lead, knowing that he Zhang Song was talented and had the ability to never forget, and even knew that Zhang Song had a picture of the West that could help Kou Feng enter Xishu more smoothly.

He only felt that Kou Feng's sincerity was very strong and the Chu State was very prosperous, and there was a feeling of prosperity. But Zhang Song still hesitated.

It seems to be slightly insufficient, but it is impossible to say.

"Let's take a look first." Zhang Song sighed, put Xi and Tu back into his sleeve, and hid it. Immediately, I planned to read a book again.

Although it has been a long time since he entered the study, Zhang Song still looked at the study for the first time. When I saw the stacks of books, I couldn't help but be stunned.

Immediately showed a look of interest, as early as when he was in Yizhou, Zhang Song had heard about the reputation of Chu Shu. But I never got to see it.

Now, since you have entered the Chu State, you should take a good look at it.

Thinking about it, Zhang Song immediately stood up, and on the bookcase next to him, he took down a book of Chu books.

The book is very light and comfortable in the palm of your hand. Zhang Song looked at the cover of 'Analects'. Immediately, I opened it and looked at it, but I was taken aback.

Sure enough, it's so legible.

When he was in Yizhou before, Zhang Song didn't believe that there was such a miraculous book in the world. Unexpectedly, it was true.

The quality of this book is not bad compared to that of the biographers.

Reading word by word, page by page.

The admiration on Zhang Song's face became thicker and thicker, and when he finished reading the book in his hand, Zhang Song let out a sigh of relief...... "It's really a treasure." ”

He paused for a moment and sighed for a moment. Suddenly, Zhang Song's face changed, and he immediately rushed out of the door. Found an entourage waiting outside the door.

Asked urgently: ...... This little brother, how much does this Chu book cost? ”

"I don't know much about this small one, but I heard that the small one is very, very cheap. Much cheaper than bamboo slips. This is thanks to Chu Gong. At present, in the Chu State, there are many children of poor families who can't afford to buy books, and they have all been gifted by the Duke of Chu. This entourage was just a servant serving in front of the door, but his face also showed admiration and smiled.

"I see." Zhang Song's face suddenly became radiant.

He finally knew why Kou Feng had solved so many scholars in Jiangdong so happily. You must know that the scholar clan is the foundation and a kind of talent cultivation force.

Kou Feng exterminated the warrior clan, which was tantamount to digging his own grave. Zhang Song used to think so, but now he sees the true face of Chu Shu. Zhang Song knew that Kou Feng didn't need the scholars to help him cultivate talents at all.

He himself can cultivate talents and use them for him. As long as there is this cheap Chu book.

Think about it, if this book is a book in this world, how many talents can be produced? Thinking about it, Zhang Song felt that his scalp was numb.

For Kou Feng's impression, from the flawed male master, towards perfection.

Zhang Song touched the cuffs and made up his mind in his heart.

But in the next few days, things didn't go the way Zhang Song had imagined, although Kou Feng often summoned him to sit with him.

But there are basically few chances.

Until the third day.

"Sir, recently the new recruits were formed, and the king wants to parade. I specially let you come down and ask Mr. to take a look. "General Wei Kou Shui, wearing a suit of armor, came to the door in person and said.

Recruit Diao, Zhang Song's face showed an interested look, and then, he nodded and said, "Okay, please wait for a while, and let the old man go to change his clothes." ”

With that, Zhang Song entered the inner room, changed into a set of clothes, and walked out of the mansion with Kou Shui towards the outside of the city.

The Chu army is powerful in the world, there are naval armies, and there are also broken army battalions. I heard that the first battalion of the broken army is a block of ten, which is very powerful.

Zhang Song already wanted to meet him in his heart, and this time Kou Feng's invitation was naturally happy.

Sitting in the carriage, Zhang Song was looking forward to it.

After leaving the city, the group came to an open area. There are a number of soldiers guarding the handles on all sides, and a large wooden wall stands in the middle.

There are rows of seats in front of the wooden wall, and one hangs from the top of the slot...... Chu" word handsome flag.

When Zhang Song arrived, the seat was already full. Zhang Song was a little apologetic, and after getting out of the carriage, he came to the front of Kou Feng and said, "It's too late to come down." ”

"Haha, Ziqiao came at the right time." Kou Feng laughed out loud and said indifferently. Immediately, he instructed the attendant next to him, "Set up another one next to the lonely one." ”

"No." The attendant agreed, and immediately found a few guards and moved a seat.

"Thank you, Duke Chu." Zhang Song saw that Kou Feng was very ambitious, and couldn't help but be moved, and bowed to Kou Feng, and then came to sit down next to Kou Feng.

And Zhang Song also attracted the attention of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty of Chu for the first time. This also includes Kou Feng's pets who came to breathe through the wind and wander around this time.
