"Joint military exercises? Is this a god Ma Dongdong?" Although Ma Teng's heart was extremely curious, he still couldn't help but not show it on his face, but said to Tian Feng calmly: "Since Taifu Zhao has this Yaxing, Tian Junshi will discuss this matter with Meng Qi, presumably after hearing it, Wu'er will definitely be interested."

Although Ma Teng had only heard of the words drill and drill, he knew that Ma Chao, the eldest son who had entered the Crouching Tiger Martial Arts Hall, must have known that the "joint military exercise" was a magic thing, so he did not hesitate to throw this task to Ma Chao.

As Ma Teng expected, after Ma Chao met Tian Feng and learned about the other party's intentions, he was really excited, and he couldn't wait to have a head-to-head showdown with the blue wolf army led by Tai Shici immediately.

Last time, Ma Chao led 3,000 cavalry to guard him and went to Wuyuan City to find Zhao Yun's bad luck, including the project of 3,000 people fighting, and the result was that the 3,000 Huangxuan cavalry of the Dingyuan Army, which was in the training adjustment period, "completely annihilated" the 3,000 Xiliang cavalry led by Ma Chao, which made Brother Chao, who has always been arrogant, very faceless. It was precisely because he had eaten two times in a row at Zhao Yun's place that Ma Chao took his cavalry to participate in the spring training of the Dingyuan Army, and as a result, he screamed at the training of 3,000 people.

This time, Ma Chao heard that he was going to fight against Tai Shici, who only got to the top last winter, and it was the Blue Wolf Army, which was one of the two elite cavalry in the Protector Army, so he naturally agreed without hesitation. After nearly a year of training, Ma Chao is now much more mature, he is not crazy that the 5,000 cavalry he led will definitely be able to defeat the 5,000 cavalry of the Flying Tiger Army, but he is confident that he will do better than the last time.

The 3,000 guards brought back by Ma Chao from the Jin Kingdom suffered more than half of the casualties when they charged to the death under the city of Guzang that day, and the Ma family army that participated in the defense of the city in the city paid the lives of nearly 10,000 soldiers. Ma Chao needs to use this joint military exercise to let the newly replenished Xiliang Majia Army see the gap, boost the morale of the troops in the shortest possible time, and improve the combat effectiveness of the troops in the fastest time. And he himself also needs opponents with strong martial arts skills to hone and improve, and Tai Shici is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

The young and vigorous Ma Chao is walking on the road to the pinnacle of martial arts, and now he is destined to not win against the twenty-six-year-old Zhao Yun, Lu Bu and Guan Yu, who are more experienced in the battle, even against Li Jinwu, who is low-key, and Zhang Liao, who is exaggerated, the result is unknown.

As for challenging Zhao Xing, since Ma Chao was constantly repaired and educated by the Wenchen generals under Zhao Xing, this crazy idea has been completely suppressed. Think about it, General Fei Lu Bu was folded in Zhao Xing's hands, the generals of all parties who were stumbled by Zhao Xing, and the Xianbei people killed were even more like cow hairs, and such an almost monster-like guy went head-to-head, either Zhao Xing would not agree, and once he agreed, it would definitely be the challenger's side!

The reason is very simple, Zhao Xing is the leader and banner in the hearts of millions of people and hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers in the Jin Kingdom, he is not necessarily an almighty god, but as long as he appears on a formal occasion, he is destined not to be defeated or surpassed. Therefore, once Zhao Xing agrees to fight with others, he must be absolutely sure that he will make a move. Either Zhao Xing's martial arts are indeed higher than those of the challenger, or he has already made enough preparations for all kinds of Yin people......

In short, there are few people in the world who are still thinking about going to fight Zhao Xing alone. There is no need for Zhao Xing to do it himself, if he has the martial arts that have won a long list of generals such as Lu Bu, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Zhang Liao, Tai Shici, Xu Huang, Li Jinwu, Xu Shu, Hu Che'er, or after winning the wisdom of Jia Xu, Tian Feng, Chen Gong, Guo Jia, Pang Tong and others, then go to Zhao Xing!

Although he no longer has the intention of single-handing Zhao Xing, Ma Chao is still very much looking forward to being able to fight against Tai Shici, who is comparable to himself in force. To paraphrase the increasingly popular saying in the Jin Kingdom: Playing chess with a stinky chess basket will only get more and more stinky! Ma Chao and Tai Shici are certainly not stinky chess baskets, they are definitely the best among the first-class generals. Therefore, this joint military exercise, which has not yet begun, has attracted the attention of many people since it was announced to the public.

Cai Wenji, the top leader of the "Jin Daily" who followed Zhao Xing to Liangzhou, was distressed by the lack of news materials, and after learning the news that the two sides were preparing to hold a joint military exercise, he immediately came to his senses and began to conduct interviews and spread news on a large scale with several reporters, making the already increasingly strong atmosphere of competition even more hot.

The joint military exercise was scheduled for late October, when the imperial envoy Wang Yun and Wang Situ arrived in Gaoping City, Anding County, Liangzhou. This joint military exercise will be publicly displayed to all forces in the world as part of the ceremony of the consecration of King Liang. When the time comes, interested state ministers and imperial court armies can send people to watch the ceremony and appreciate the strong combat power of the Jin cavalry.

According to Zhao Xing's consistent dislike of losing money and making money, he "showed his muscles" to the world with great fanfare this time, is there any other way in it?

The answer is yes. This time, Zhao Xing will almost unreservedly show the real combat power of the Jin cavalry that once killed the Xianbei people to the real combat power of the cavalry, the purpose of which is to stimulate the forces of all parties and raise the development of cavalry to a new height.

On the surface, this is true, but only Zhao Xing and a handful of high-level generals know about the conspiracy behind this joint military exercise.

The most terrifying of the Jin cavalry, the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, that is, the heavy cavalry, will not appear in the joint military exercise. There are also some high-tech combat equipment that will also be hidden by Tai Shici, such as large-scale fine military maps, high-magnification telescopes, portable compasses, etc. In other words, this display is still a limited range of bright muscles, and all forces in the world can only see the muscle blocks on Zhao Xing's arms, as for his abdominal muscles and psoas muscles, they are still deeply hidden.

So what is Zhao Xing's conspiracy? He wants to paralyze the forces of all sides, make them think that the strength of the Protector Army depends on cavalry troops, and then set off a round of arms race with cavalry as the mainstay!

The most immediate question for all sides to engage in an arms race and equip a large number of cavalry is: Where do the horses come from? At present, in addition to Jizhou, where Yuan Shao is located, there are still some inferior horses, and even Gongsun Du in Liaodong can still sell some war horses to the outside world. In other words, Zhao Xing, who controls the three states of You, Bing, Liang and the entire territory of the northern grasslands, will be the main supplier of war horses in the world. This is a typical monopoly operation, the pricing power is in the hands of the Jin Kingdom, and the quality of the war horse will be deliberately controlled, which is really a big deal that makes people blush!

Zhao Xing, who came from later generations, knew very well that if he wanted to revitalize the economy of Youzhou, Liangzhou and the northern prairie and feed a large number of people, he must rely on the production of these places. Exporting beef and mutton is only the lowest end of the trade, and since ancient times, the arms trade has been a lucrative business, so selling war horses has become a way to get rich quickly.

The most important thing is that Zhao Xing's army is preparing to carry out drastic reforms, as early as after Xiong Zhen's army was formed, Zhao Xing was experimenting with building various armies into troops that can undertake a variety of combat missions, and in popular language, Zhao Xing wants to upgrade the armies into a group army. From the army to the group army, the number of troops does not need to increase much, but because the composition and equipment of the troops are more reasonable, the effect of 1+1>2 will be achieved.

After repeated deductions and practical tests, the cavalry unit is not the most important task in a group army, that is to say, the number of cavalry units must be controlled within a certain number, and any more is a pure Lang fee, or even a trap to burn money.

Through the test of ten years of combat, Zhao Xing has fully proved that relying on the infantry corps can completely defeat the cavalry corps. Moreover, with the continuous use of long-range attack weapons and large-scale combat equipment, as well as small firearms such as thunderbolts, which have a huge impact on war horses, the role of cavalry units in large-scale operations has been weakened day by day.

When dealing with the northern nomads, who were accustomed to guerrilla warfare, a large number of cavalry was really needed. However, as the power of the Jin State became stronger and stronger, Zhao Xing's ethnic integration policy gradually showed its power, and now the ethnic minorities operating in the north are no longer a climate, and Zhao Xing has not let go. Today, the Flying Tigers still roam the depths of the steppe like a pack of hungry wolves, capturing, driving and even destroying all the nomads in their sight.

The order given by Taifu Zhao to General Fei Lu Bu was very clear -- five years later, under the northern sky, except for the three ethnic groups of Huang Xuan, Yan Sheng, and the Southern Xiongnu, all other humanoids would disappear! Lu Bu was quite energetic about this order, and this job was really suitable for him to do. If Cheng Den was in the Jin Kingdom, worrying about a group of howling cavalry, it would make Lu Bu's head big just thinking about it. The Flying Tigers are used for war, not for people to visit.

In the near future, when only the three ethnic minorities named by Zhao Xing himself were left in the north, where would the powerful cavalry of the Jin State go? There was no other way but to disarm. The cost of raising one cavalryman and the corresponding two or three horses can raise five armies of eight infantry warriors, and they are well-equipped infantry. If you raise a soldier like the Yellow Turban Army, you can raise more than twenty soldiers!

On the one hand, the demand for cavalry in the Jin State has been saturated, and on the other hand, the territory controlled by the Jin State will increase the production of war horses in the future. If this problem is not solved, it will inevitably lead to overcapacity, which will eventually lead to instability in people's minds and affect the implementation and popularization of the new policy. What's more serious is that Huang Xuan, Yan Sheng, and the Southern Xiongnu who originally returned to their hearts will also have other ideas.

After repeated pondering, Zhao Xing decided on this strategy. His approach was inspired by the insidious schemes of a later superpower. In that world, the world's second-ranked bigwigs engaged in an arms race with the United States because of the "Star Wars" program, but as a result, the country collapsed and eventually the country disintegrated; in that world, the world's bosses went around conducting joint military exercises with various countries, peddling their own outdated weapons and equipment to them, and making a fortune in arms.

Zhao Xing's joint military exercise this time has fully drawn on the successful experience of a certain country in the two aspects of "Star Wars" and "military exercises and arms sales," and intends to lead other forces to a fundamentally wrong path of military development while solving the problem of internal wealth growth!

Is Zhao Xing insidious, cunning, and shameless enough......
