Chapter 130: Door-to-door

Cao Cao looked at the horses tied to the saddle, and Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction. Later, under the dispute of everyone, Cao Cao began to try for the first time how the war horse after the saddle was placed.

stepped on the stirrup and turned over the horse, and suddenly Cao Cao showed a happy look. You must know that Cao Cao himself has been on horseback for a long time, so he is naturally very familiar with horsemanship, so when Cao Cao sat on horseback, Cao Cao instantly felt the difference.

Hahaha laughed three times, and Cao Cao turned over and dismounted without saying anything. Subsequently, Xiahoudun was the most impatient, and after Cao Cao dismounted, he unexpectedly turned on the horse's back.

After riding the horse for a few laps, Cao Cao said again: "Let's go, I'll wait to go to the school field." After saying that, Cao Cao walked towards the school grounds.

Everyone didn't dare to slack off, and they went towards the school with Cao Cao one after another. After arriving at the school grounds, Cao Cao ordered the soldiers to come to a horse without stirrups, and then he pointed to the horse and said, "Miaocai, you ride this horse." Then he said to Xiahoudun: "Yuan Rang, you ride that horse and ask Miaocai for a few tricks." ”

Both of them understood what Cao Cao meant, so they didn't refuse. Then the two men turned on their horses, and the soldiers brought weapons for them.

After the two of them were in battle, everyone dispersed. Xiahoudun held his weapon and hugged his fist at Xiahou Yuan and said, "Miaocai concedes." ”

"Big brother concedes!" Xiahou Yuan returned the salute, and then the two rode forward one after another, rushing towards each other.

Bite! With the sound of metal clashing, the first round of the confrontation between the two began. With this first round alone, a discerning person can see which is stronger and which is weaker. Although Xiahou Yuan tried his best to control zhì, it was obvious that he had lost the first move, and not only that, Xiahou Yuan did not have Xiahou Yuan to keep his hand at all. Xiahoudun was very excited about this, and saw him shoot one shot after another, and each shot was powerful.

Everyone may not know the end, but Xiahou Yuan, who fought against Xiahoudun, secretly complained. Judging from his previous experience, he was confident that he would be able to fight with Xiahoudun, but he didn't expect the horse to be installed in the stirrups. But it has made such a huge difference.

In the past, when the two armies clashed, not only did they have to control the war horse and disperse their experiences, but they also had no way to exert their full strength. But the situation has changed greatly, his own strength has been suppressed, and Xiahoudun's strength seems to have increased exponentially, making him a little tender to accept.

Soon the two fought for a few more rounds, but because Xiahou Yuan became more and more powerless, he was finally picked off by Xiahou Yuan with a shot. Originally, there was not much difference in the strength of the two. But now Xiahou Yuan was defeated in such a short period of time, which made everyone look sideways, and the effect of the stirrup was indeed outstanding.

Sitting on horseback, Xiahoudun's face was full of excitement. It was the first time since I learned to ride a horse that I felt the battle on horseback. Because his legs have support points, and he doesn't have to worry about falling off the horse, this makes Xiahoudun's strength on the horseback greatly increase.

"Who's going to fight me?" Xiahoudun held the steel gun in his hand, and his face was full of smug smiles. But apparently no one paid attention to him in this matter. Everyone has already seen the power of stirrups, so how can anyone still send them in this world for Xiahoudun to abuse. I'm not a masochist.

Seeing that many generals have become shrunken turtles, Xiahoudun is a little excited. Then Du Chen yelled at Xiahoudun: "Yuan Rang, change to another horse, give this horse to others, do you dare to say that?" ”

Hearing Du Chen's words, Xiahoudun couldn't help but shrink his neck. I am not afraid of fighting. But for Du Chen, a weak scholar, there is no way to do it from the bottom of his heart. Moreover, Du Chen left a deep impression on Xiahoudun back then, which made him feel a little afraid of Du Chen from the bottom of his heart.

So Xiahou was stunned, and he didn't become arrogant anymore after he turned over. Instead, he walked out into the crowd with his neck shoehorned. And seeing that Xiahoudun's hob meat finally left, the rest of the generals became active. Although everyone knows that the stirrup effect is very good, but how much increase it has, everyone has no bottom in their hearts.

Du Chen also saw this situation, and then smiled: "Look at you one by one, it's just for a stirrup." The forging method of this thing is very simple, and Chen also instructed the workshop to let them rush to make it overnight, presumably it won't take long, and everyone will be able to have a copy, so there is no need to worry. ”

After Du Chen finished speaking, all the generals showed a look of shame, but they thought that their mounts would be able to place stirrups soon, and then everyone's hearts came alive.

In the next few days, the workshop in Xuchang City was busy. Although not many people know about the invention of the stirrup, relatively speaking, there are many people who know about it. Especially the generals and generals of the Cao army, they are all eager to wear the stirrups. Therefore, in order to supply these generals in advance, the workshop can be described as working overtime.

Due to the rush of the workshop day and night, a pair of stirrups were constantly forged. Of course, these stirrups were also quickly consumed within the Cao army. After the interior was fully saturated, the stirrups of the standard began to be prepared to equip the army. Speaking of the army, it is necessary to mention the Golden Viper Force. Since the Golden Viper troops participated in that sneak attack, they have been idle, so Du Chen decided to reorganize the Golden Viper troops. So since then, there has been a sentence in the Golden Viper Army, which is: I would rather fight on the battlefield for a year than let the captain train for three days. And this phrase is widely circulated within the Golden Viper Army.

Life passed day by day, and the training of the Golden Viper Force was also carried out step by step, and with the passage of time, the growth of the Golden Viper Force was definitely significant. In a short period of time, after Du Chen's training, the appearance of the officers and soldiers of the four battalions has been completely renewed, because in just a few days, many of the soldiers of the Golden Viper Force have become strong and strong, and in addition to the strength they had before, the strength of the soldiers of the Golden Viper Department can be said to have increased greatly.

But on this day, when Du Chen was training, Xun Yu took the initiative to find Du Chen.

Xun Yu came to find Du Chen, it was really unbearable for him, because the consumption of the Golden Viper Army was too large to bear, and Xun Yu was in charge of the financial power of the entire Cao Army, so whenever he saw the accounts of the Golden Viper Army, Xun Yu was absolutely heartbroken. After all, he didn't know the hardships of being a homemaker, so now he finally couldn't bear the heartache and came to Du Chen.

In Xun Yu's eyes, Du Chen is like a fierce beast, he ruthlessly devours the money, grain and grass that he cherishes very much. All the armies that have anything to do with Du Chen have amazing accounts.

The Golden Viper army is only a few thousand people, and the food and grass consumed by these thousands of people and horses are not comparable to tens of thousands of troops. How can Xun Yu, as the Minister of Finance, endure such behavior.

"Wen Ruo, what kind of wind gave you out?" Looking at Xun Yu, who appeared in front of him and had a somewhat excited expression, Du Chen asked unhurriedly. He naturally knew why Xun Yu came, but when negotiating this kind of thing, whoever spoke first would die early.

Xun Yu held back the anger in his heart, and said word by word: "Okay, you Du Silang, don't you really know where Yu came from?" Although Xun Yu's words were very imposing, they were useless to Du Chen, and he only said with a smile: "Could it be that Wen Ruo hasn't seen me for a long time, and wants to invite Chen to drink three hundred cups?" It's easy to say about this matter, when the dust completes the reorganization, the dust and you will not get drunk and return. ”

"You ......" Xun Yu pointed at Du Chen, not knowing what to do. After all, he is also an important minister of the imperial court, but when facing Du Chen, he has never taken advantage of the slightest, which is why Xun Yu took so long to come to Du Chen, because he was not sure that he would be able to bargain. But seeing that the Golden Viper troops consumed a headache of grain, grass and money every day, Xun Yu could only come to Du Chen hard.

But the result was similar to what he expected, and before he explained his intentions, he had already been won by Du Chen, and the next thing was even more difficult to do. But no matter how difficult it is, Xun Yu still has to say it, because he can't bear it anymore, and the consumption of the Golden Viper Force is too huge. If you don't solve it today, I'm afraid you will have trouble sleeping. But can it really be satisfactorily resolved? Xun Yu couldn't help but ask secretly in his heart, but he didn't have the confidence to ask at all.

"Wen Ruo, why do you have to be like this, you have this thought, the dust is already very content, why do you need to come and run in person. Arrange a subordinate casually, and the dust will definitely be with you. The more Xun Yu was like that, the happier Du Chen was in his heart, so he still criticized him very mercilessly.

"Enough!" Xun Yu roared angrily, attracting many soldiers to scramble to watch. They very much wanted to know why Xun Yu, who was originally amiable, suddenly became like this.

Seeing that he had attracted the attention of all the soldiers, Xun Yu hurriedly restored his former elegance. Looking at Du Chen, Xun Yu said helplessly: "Silang, you should know why Yu came." ”

"You also know that Yu is in charge of finance, and the money and food consumed by the Golden Viper Army every day are about to catch up with the consumption of tens of thousands of troops in a few days, and the Golden Viper Army is only a few thousand, why are these thousands of people consumed so much?"

"If Wen Ruo said that Chen used his power for personal gain?" Du Chen did not answer positively, but asked rhetorically.

"Enough, you still want to continue performing this little trick?" Xun Yu glared at Du Chen, and then said, "Who do you think of Du Silang, do you care about Yu's grain, grass and salary?" However, what I want to say is that the cost of the Golden Viper troops is too huge, can it be reduced? ”

"How much does Wen Ruo plan to reduce?" Du Chen raised his eyebrows and asked.

Xun Yu gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly: "At least halve?" ”

"It's impossible!" As soon as Xun Yu's words fell, Du Chen refused without reservation. And Tong Guò Du Chen's tone could feel that there was no room for turning around in his words, which made Xun Yu a little difficult to accept.

But even so, Xun Yu still said: "The Golden Viper army is only more than 9,000 people, and the cost is so huge that it is really difficult to convince the public." ”

"The soldiers of the Golden Viper Force are all elites with one enemy and one hundred, and the treatment is naturally much better than others, if someone is not convinced, it is a big deal to fight, but they realize the difference in strength between them." Du Chen said toughly. (To be continued......)
