The Northern Song Dynasty was weak externally and had low combat effectiveness, but the internal economy of the Northern Song Dynasty surpassed that of any dynasty in history. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info\\。 qΒ5。

In addition to the convenient and fast water transportation in the Northern Song Dynasty, the traffic in 6 places is also very good, the official road of the four directions is smooth and wide, and the Ministry of Industry has a special person to manage, although it is far from the high highway of later generations, but in ancient history, it also belongs to a rare high-ranking official road.

The official road leading from Bianjing to Jingzhaofu in Xijing is one of the best official roads in the Great Song Dynasty, but there has been no rain for many days, which makes the official road at the end of summer yellow dust rise to the sky.

When the sun is in the sky, pedestrians in twos and threes, walking on the official road weakly, the willows, pines and cypresses on both sides of the official road are also invaded by loess, wearing a layer of earthy yellow coat, looking lifeless.

On the official road, suddenly the low sound of horses' hooves, pedestrians in twos and threes looked back in surprise, on the official road in the east, a line of hundreds of horsemen, was galloping towards the west, looking at the loess behind these cavalry, pedestrians dodged behind the trees on both sides of the official road.

"Drive!" Hurry up the horses, hundreds of elite horsemen are like lightning, and in the blink of an eye, they swept over the official road and disappeared.

"What a man! is so arrogant, hundreds of elites ride fast horses in broad daylight, so much dust, and let people not live! A thin pedestrian in his forties was directly turned into a loess man by the dust in the sky, and he shouted loudly in his heart.

"Dirt buns! It's not from Bianjing! Next to the thin pedestrian, an old man pushing a cart looked at the shouting pedestrian with disdain and said.

"It's not. Coming from Yingchang Mansion, does the uncle know who they are? The details of the thin pedestrian were exposed, and he asked the old man with insufficient confidence.

"What happened just now was the famous Zhao Sanjue in Bianjing, who was the prince and master of the dynasty, but it's a pity. I heard that it was demoted to Gyeongju. The old man looked at the direction in which Baiqi left and said with a sigh.

"Zhao Sanjue, the miracle doctor who clearly resisted the sores vaccine, I heard that he also saved the life of the prince of the official family, is it really him!" As soon as Zhao Sanjue was mentioned, the thin pedestrian immediately became interested, and said to the old man to show off his knowledge.

"It must be him, except for him, who has the ability to gallop on the official road with a hundred horses, this road is to Xijing. It is estimated that he will go to Xijing and transfer to Gyeongju! The old man listened to the thin pedestrian's teasing, and said loudly.

"Zhao Sanjue! Our Yingchang Mansion has also begun to grow pox now, and not long ago there was a plague, and no one died! Now many people have been set up by Lord Zhao for immortal tablets! I could actually see him. I'm so lucky, I'm going to talk to the folks when I go back. The thin pedestrian said excitedly as he looked in the direction where the hundred horses had left.

The old man looked at the excited thin pedestrian, scolded in his heart, and pushed the cart and left.

On the official road, the loess in the sky after a hundred rides. Gradually, it dispersed.

……

The conditions of the Northern Song Dynasty post station are very good, although it cannot be compared with the top ten famous buildings in Bianjing, but compared to the general inn. But it's more than enough.

Zhengzhou Post Station is in a small town eighteen miles south of the city, the whole. The post house consists of four attics, backed by Jinshui, surrounded by bamboo and willow forests, and the scenery is pleasant.

Outside the city of Zhengzhou. Among the post stations, a group of special guests are ushered in today, and the post soldiers who have served in the post station for decades have never seen a team of 100 horsemen.

"It's so uncomfortable! It's all loess, and I'm going to go in and take a shower right away. "After the 100 horsemen came to the post station. A sixteen or seventeen-year-old handsome girl in the team said loudly.

This delicate girl in a green samurai uniform is Yang Jinhua, the second lady of Tianbo Yang Mansion, and this hundred horsemen team is Zhao Lei and his party who went to Gyeongju to take office.

Zhao Lei met with the official Zhao Zhen before leaving, the official Zhao Zhen spared no effort in order to reform the army, and agreed to all Zhao Lei's requests, not only gave Xiao Ruoruo a Zhengjiupin official position to join the army in Gyeongju, but also promised to allocate equipment to the 3,000 cavalry of the Gyeongju Army, and if necessary, he could also select elite soldiers from the Yongxing Army, and he would be sent to the Yongxing Military Road by Wang Deyong, who was participated in by Taiwanese officials, and served as the commander of the Yongxing Army, so that Wang Deyong could help Zhao Lei comprehensively reform the Gyeongju Army.

Zhao Lei heard so much good news, and after asking Yang Wenguang to drive farewell to Gyeongju, he was ready to leave Bianjing, who knew that the little girl Yang Jinhua of Tianbo Yangfu heard that Xiao Ruoruo was also a daughter and actually went to Gyeongju, and actually grinded Zhao Lei to ask for an official position in the army and went to Gyeongju together.

Zhao Lei took the holy decree given by the official family, snatched hundreds of excellent war horses in the Ministry of War, and then took Xiao Ruoruo and Tianbo Yang Mansion and his party, as well as the forbidden army escort sent by the Ministry of War to Gyeongju to take office.

"Me too, let's go take a shower together." Yang Jinhua's words aroused Xiao Ruoruo's sympathy, and after getting off the horse, he greeted and went together. Walk in the station.

Yang Wenguang and Zhao Lei both looked like loess people, looked at each other, and smiled helplessly.

Zhao Lei turned over and dismounted, the first feeling was **hot, it felt like being burned, he only learned to ride a horse today, just galloping like this, even if there is saddle protection, ** will definitely bloom.

"What! You can't just learn to ride a horse! I saw that you were pretty good at horseback riding! Yang Wenguang looked at Zhao Lei, who was walking a little unnaturally, and asked with a smile.

Zhao Lei is suffering words, although he has no actual combat experience in horseback riding, but the experience he learned in the book is enough for him to learn quickly, although so, but he really hasn't tried the side effects of horseback riding, and now it's okay, ** has bloomed, so he can only smile bitterly.

"I really just learned how to ride a horse! No, you're really a genius, you can gallop all the way here just after learning to ride a horse, but look at your appearance, you can't walk today, I'll talk to the post keeper for a while, rest for a day, and walk tomorrow! Yang Wenguang looked at Zhao Lei and said with a smile.

"That's the only way, I feel very uncomfortable, tomorrow let people add a few layers of cotton to the saddle, I hope it will be better!" Zhao Lei said with a bitter face. He didn't expect the cavalry to have such high requirements for people and land.

Zhao Lei and Yang Wenguang walked into the post station, and behind them, Xiao Ruoruo's sixteen subordinates, as well as thirty-two veterans selected from Yang's mansion, and fifty forbidden soldiers sent by the Ministry of War, followed into the post station in unison.

Dust on the official road. Let Zhao Lei and Yang Wenguang be like earth monkeys, bathing several times before washing off the dust on their bodies.

After bathing, Zhao Lei and Yang Wenguang, as well as Yang Jinhua and Xiao Ruoruo, two beauties, ate together, while Zhu Dali and other accompanying guards only ate a big pot of rice outside.

"What are we going to do when we go to Gyeongju?" At the banquet, Xiao Ruoruo asked Zhao Lei excitedly.

"I said to the official family that 3,000 cavalry were selected from the Yongxing Army to set up a cavalry battalion. With the consent of the official family, the Xiao Cavalry Battalion will be established at that time, and Brother Zhong Rong will serve as the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, and you only need to be responsible for training the Xiao Cavalry Battalion into an elite cavalry capable of fighting against Western Xia and Liao. "Zhao Lei rode a horse for a long time, and he was really hungry. While sweeping the wine and food on the banquet, he said to Yang Wenguang and the others.

"It's that simple!" Yang Wenguang asked questioningly, he knew that Zhao Lei was ordered to reform the Gyeongju Army, if this was a reform measure, it would be too simple.

"It's not just cavalry. I will also reform the infantry army, remove all the old and weak soldiers from the army, and then select the elite to retrain the infantry army. Zhao Lei said with a simple introduction.

"Eliminate the old and weak!" Yang Wenguang and Yang Jinhua said in surprise at the same time. Then they looked at each other strangely, their faces full of worry.

"What's wrong with them, how can they be scared like this when they hear about the elimination of the old and weak." Xiao Ruoruo looked at the expressions of Yang Wenguang's brothers and sisters, and asked Zhao Lei curiously.

Zhao Lei looked at Yang Wenguang's brothers and sisters and said with a smile: "Their reaction is normal, I heard from the official family that there are 6,000 soldiers and horses in Gyeongju, of which only 500 are cavalry, and the others are infantry troops." But many of them are old and weak soldiers, and some of them are low-level generals who enter through the back door of local officials in Gyeongju, if the old and weak are eliminated and the elite are selected, it is estimated that all those people will be eliminated, and then there will only be half of the Gyeongju army left. ”

"Half! No way! The Gyeongju army is so weak? Xiao Ruoruo asked in disbelief.

"There's no way, the imperial court has just taken away a batch of elites from Gyeongju, and now what is left behind is basically the veteran soldier Youzi, the young master soldier and the family soldier." Yang Wenguang replied with a wry smile, Xiao Ruoruo said.

"Young master soldiers and veterans, I know, what is a family soldier?" Xiao Ruoruo asked with a confused expression.

"Family soldiers are all soldiers in the family, I heard that many of the Gyeongju soldiers are father-son soldiers, and there are even grandfathers and grandchildren, you say that in this case, if you eliminate the old and weak, what else can be left." Yang Jinhua is also a tiger girl, and she is very clear about the things in the army, and immediately explained to Xiao Ruoruo.

"The veteran oil training will be lazy, the young master soldiers and the family soldiers will cause trouble, after all, the young master soldiers are all local heroes and strong people through the back door to insert in, and the elimination of them will cause local dissatisfaction, and after the family soldiers are eliminated, I am afraid that there will be no food and clothing, and then they will take risks, aggravating the hidden dangers of local security, these are all very troublesome, it seems that Brother Sanshi wants to reform, and the suffering is not small!" After Yang Wenguang carefully explained to Xiao Ruoruo, he smiled at Zhao Lei and said.

"It's right if there are difficulties, there are no difficulties, and it's not my turn to reform, I'm afraid that the Privy Council has already sent someone to build the Great Song army into an elite, and I came to Gyeongju to challenge the difficulties." Zhao Lei looked at Yang Wenguang and the three of them and said confidently.

Yang Wenguang looked at Zhao Lei's confident eyes, remembering that he strongly recommended the Yang family to come to Gyeongju in front of the official family, he couldn't help but be grateful, and a little admired, and couldn't help but say proudly: "Okay!" A good man should face difficulties and overcome all difficulties, and I, Yang Wenguang, will accompany Brother Sanshi to overcome difficulties. ”

Zhao Lei and Yang Wenguang looked at each other, and a feeling of sympathy filled their hearts.

"What good men should rise to the challenge, our good daughter should also rise to the challenge, Sister Ruoruo, we will also go to Gyeongju to do a big career to show these stinky men! What is a woman who does not let the eyebrows be shaved! The delicate and lovely Yang Jinhua looked at Zhao Lei and Yang Wenguang, and said loudly to Xiao Ruoruo, and was approved by Xiao Ruoruo.

Zhao Lei and Yang Wenguang looked at the two beautiful girls and laughed loudly, and the laughter spread throughout the entire post station in a blink of an eye.
