It was a bit cold in the early morning in Mayi City, the sun was not yet rising, a few dark gray clouds were hanging over the sky like a quilt, and a flock of crows was hovering in the distance.

In the city, there are crisp camel bells ringing, as well as camel barking, and occasionally you can see a few yellow dogs barking energetically, and a new day begins.

Because the long-term training that came from the previous selection of soldiers finally returned to normal, three days of small training, and ten days of big training, so I finally took a break yesterday, and this morning I could see a group of soldiers with residual fat powder coming out of various alleys like mice, hurriedly returning to the barracks before the time limit.

Chromophobia, too, is completely tacitly approved by the above.

Zhao Ji, a sullen guy, has been there more than once before, and there seems to be an old friend.

"What, reluctant?" A big head leaned over and squeaked and said with a strange smile, this guy's bearded face was still printed with red rouge, well, that's right, this is Zhao Ji's cousin Zeng Yi, he is not a cavalryman, but he was easily selected in the selection assessment a few days ago, and was favored by Wei Qing, and entered the cavalry camp together.

At first, Mu Shaoan thought that this Xiao cavalry battalion was very popular, but after he came to report excitedly, he found that this so-called Xiao cavalry camp was actually not in the eighth school of the Northern Army, in other words, the general Wei Qing, who seemed to be very talkative, promised them a blank check.

Of course, Mu Shaoan is not depressed about this, what kind of person is Wei Qing, every move has deep meaning, so he is willing to do it.

But one thing is very strange, the total number of this cavalry battalion is only 100 people, which is not only mixed with the infantry of his cousin Zeng Yi, but also mixed with many crossbowmen, as well as many sneaky-looking soldiers.

Well, judging from Mu Shaoan's experience of liking to do things, General Wei is also preparing to do things.

After the gathering of the cavalry battalion, there was no training task, and no new instructions were handed down, but the soldiers' salaries were paid five times, so these days everyone is very moisturized, sleeping flowers and willows, eating large pieces of meat, and drinking large bowls of wine, which is really proud.

"Cousin, don't you think it's strange?"

Mu Shaoan tilted his head and looked at an old pawn in the distance who was missing half an arm and was blind in one eye, this guy had a very strong fierce aura, and he looked like a veteran of the years, but after all, he was a disabled person, no matter how powerful he was, he couldn't go into battle anymore, and now he was selected into the Xiaocai battalion.

"What do you have to say?"

The violent cousin slapped it down again, Mu Shaoan could only roll his eyes, he had a hunch that their four-like riding battalion would soon have to move.

In fact, before noon, a little white-faced civil official, oh no, it was a eunuch who came in a hurry, not to announce the decree, because he was the camp leader of this cavalry battalion.

"Assemble, assemble!"

The deputy battalion is a reckless and big man, good at using a thick iron spear, a big bow, even on horseback can pass through Yang in a hundred steps, this is the kind of charging warrior in the army, it is definitely the strength of SS+, in comparison, it seems to be more powerful than the dead gun god Sima Lao'er.

And such a fierce general, but he went to such an unjustifiable Xiaocai battalion to be the deputy battalion, but the battalion is still a eunuch, which is too weird, and it is definitely the foundation of doing things.

A group of people hula ran over, although they were all elites in the army, but because they didn't run in, they didn't know each other well, so they pushed and shoved, and they didn't want to, but they didn't want to, the eunuch of the battalion saw this, but smiled with satisfaction, and then shouted at the male duck: "Take off your armor and take off your clothes!"

What the?

This order came strangely, and a group of arrogant soldiers were stunned, what do you mean?

You must know that in addition to Mu Shao'an, the other selected soldiers, such as their violent cousin, were at least 100 commanders or 100 generals in the previous army, and the equipment on their bodies was quite good, and the worst were leather armor, which was much better than ordinary soldiers, and as a veteran of the years, the importance of equipment was simply like his own daughter-in-law.

Now that he is ordered to remove his armor, no one wants to.

"Take off!" This time it was the turn of the deputy battalion of the violent bear to speak, as if there was a thunder on the ground, everyone was frightened, and obediently began to take off, no way, this place has the biggest fist, dare not be convinced, just hit you convinced.

In the blink of an eye, everyone stripped down to only a crotch cloth.

The eunuch camp squinted his little eyes, looked around with satisfaction, and as soon as he waved, more than a dozen miscellaneous servants brought up more clothes and distributed them to everyone.

This clothing was worn by ordinary people, and some of them were rough sheepskin jackets, with a smell of sheep's flesh, and I don't know which dead Huns they were taken from.

Mu Shaoan also wore a set of them, and he felt that there were countless insects crawling in it.

But he also guessed a little reason.

This is to ask more than 100 of their elite soldiers to pretend to be businessmen.

As for why you pretend, it's very simple, soldiers, know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.

What kind of character is Wei Qing, a famous general through the ages, how could he ignore such details?

Outside the Saiwai is the territory of the Huns, before the big war, are you embarrassed not to send scouts to explore the way?

And next year will be the time for the Han Empire and the Xiongnu to start a formal decisive battle, but Wei Qing has already prepared for a rainy day now.

The general of a hundred battles is worthy of his name.

Is it really easy to run a thousand miles? Aren't you afraid of getting lost?

In fact, whether Wei Qing or his nephew Huo Quai, he has never been lost after thousands of miles of travel, and he is accurate in one pounce, this is not the prairie of the 21st century, with Beidou's precise navigation to rely on.

In these years, there is no road, even if there is a map, there is no experienced guide, it is useless.

Therefore, you can know that whether Wei Qing broke the Dragon City, fought in the north of the desert, collected the Hetao, won seven battles and seven victories, or Huo Quai's later attack thousands of miles, broke the Huns twice, went straight to the Qilian Mountains, crisscrossed the desert, and sealed the wolf Juxu, this is all because the initial preparation was very sufficient.

In contrast, Li Guang, a famous general, actually got lost outside the Saiwai, and finally missed the opportunity to join forces with Wei Qing's Chinese army to attack the enemy, causing him to commit suicide in shame.

This cannot but be said to be a pity.

Of course, this is all Mu Shao'an's own guess, the eunuch battalion and the deputy battalion of the violent bear are exactly the ones who will not explain anything, the military order is like a mountain, you can do whatever you want, dare to be verbose, and the military law will serve!

Therefore, after a while, Mu Shao'an, more than 100 people, all turned into merchants on the Silk Road, and the status of merchants in these years is not low, although they are also leeks, and the merchants who can walk the Silk Road are undoubtedly wealthy businessmen.

But the surprise is still behind, the little white-faced eunuch with fine skin and tender flesh actually changed his clothes and blackened his face, and he was even going to go out together, tsk.
