257 Future
"Don't interject." Xu Huabiao patted Zhou Jieqiong on the shoulder, and then continued: "I don't want to take the lead on the issue of my heir in the future, and then make a miasma, like Li Xiuman......"
"Childe...... What are you talking about! Lin Yun'er hurriedly interjected and wanted to stop Xu Huabiao.
"The lord is saying that there will be problems with Li Xiuman's successor in the future?" Bae Joo-hyun interjected almost immediately.
She smelled something.
"Nonsense! The eldest son died, and the rest of the children were a problem. Xu Huabiao sighed softly, "Well, let's skip this aside, in short, I am now putting the standard of the person who will inherit me in the future here." ”
After speaking, Xu Huabiao tidied up the atmosphere.
"If only I had anything left for my children in the future."
“…… So, what is your standard? Li Zhien asked.
Her words also attracted the attention of everyone present.
"I like it." Xu Huabiao looked serious.
"Lord...... Isn't that ridiculous? Bae Joo-hyun didn't hold back and complained.
"So, don't guess what the standard is." Xu Huabiao snorted, "Neither Lichang nor Lixian." I just like it. Anyway, my heir doesn't have to be responsible for anything......"
"Childe is cautious!" Li Yanxi, who had been silent, hurriedly opened his mouth to stop him.
"Although my wife is a princess." Xu Huabiao hurriedly added half a sentence.
Well, it makes sense in an instant.
"So, you don't have to think about what eldest son is with Li Xiuman, you have to look towards him...... There's no need for that. Xu Huabiao made a summary.
"But my lord, you still have hidden dangers after all." Lee Ji-eun is still very serious.
"I understand. But sometimes, it's not a bad thing to sell a flaw. Xu Huabiao smiled, "When necessary, it will be a good excuse." ”
"When necessary? Lord...... Are you thinking too far? Bae Joo-hyun paused for a moment, and then said with a strange expression.
"You name it, it's not that far away." Xu Huabiao complained about Pei Zhuhyun, "Okay, can you stop talking about this matter?" ”
“…… Childe, is it really possible? Zhou Jieqiong was still a little worried.
"It's okay." Xu Huabiao shook his head, and then looked at Jin Zhongguo, "By the way, Brother Zhong Guo, how is the battle situation of your expedition against the Huns this time?" I only know that you have won, and I don't know anything else. ”
"Oh...... This one! It's inconvenient for me to say it, or you'll think I'm pretending to be in front of you. Kim Jong Kook smiled on his face, "You ask them." ”
As he spoke, he pointed to Park Hyo-min and Park Ji-yeon next to him.
“……”
Xu Huabiao smiled and sighed.
……
When the group stopped saying that they looked troublesome, but after Xu Huabiao himself seemed nothing to be a, the atmosphere was obviously much better.
After all, they're talking about winning battles.
This has to start from the summer, when Park Hyo-min and Park Ji-yeon followed Bae Joo-hyun to attack with soldiers.
The two sides were the first to confront each other across the Luo River, and the Xiongnu did not want to retreat, but they did not dare to face Park Hyo-min and them.
Then Pei Zhuhyun set up a plan, and after showing weakness, he lured the Xiongnu to cross the river and raid them.
As a result, he was attacked by Pei Zhuxun and scattered the Hun troops of 1,000 cavalry.
After that, it was Xu Huabiao who was already very clear that he couldn't find the other party's main force for half a day to hide and seek in the grassland.
Until Kim Jong Kook arrived.
Kim Jong Kook and Song Joong Ki, who were holding back the fire in Xuzhou, chose the same tactics as the original champion Hou Huo went to illness.
Raid the clan, burn and loot, and force the opponent's living forces to duel with you.
It's not that the Huns don't know this tactic, but they didn't think that Jin Zhongguo could actually lead more than 10,000 infantry and realize this kind of warfare that requires a large number of cavalry to achieve.
relied on his own bravery.
With less than thirty horsemen, an elite cavalry team composed of Song Joong Ki, Park Ji Yeon, and more than two dozen soldiers above the centurion who awakened the source of power in the Luoyang City Guard, like the tentacles of an octopus, stretched out, sucked back, stretched out, and sucked back again.
Little by little, the people of that tribe were captured to the camp where Park Hyo-min and Bae Joo-hyun were sitting.
In the end, the cavalry formed by the young men of that tribe was forced to engage in a near-suicidal decisive battle with the large army.
As a result, naturally, they succeeded in "committing suicide".
That unit was completely wiped out by Park Hyo-min and the others, and not a single one was left alive.
Although the city guards also paid a terrible price of nearly 2,000 men, the deterrence brought by this battle has spread throughout the grasslands.
A Xiongnu tribe that was once one of the most powerful and had thousands of people in its heyday was completely wiped out, leaving only less than 300 women, girls and children.
Such a record is enough for all the grassland people to do business with the Luoyang people in a proper manner.
Of course, this is not enough.
"So, Brother Zhong Guo, have you thought about it?"
"Well, it's been almost a month since I've been back." Jin Zhongguo nodded, "I've also met those old guys, and there are about two hundred people like me and Zhong Ji, who are tired of the life of intrigue and deceit in the Central Plains, and plan to go back to the grassland with us, so I plan to take them with me." Coupled with the captives of the three hundred Huns, we are also a medium-sized tribe, and there should be no danger. ”
"But ......"
"It's nothing." Kim Jong Kook smiled, "I discussed it with Zhong Ji, what we thought about before, just what a few people wanted to do on the grassland, it was unreliable after all." At least you still have to eat and drink! There is a tribe that can make a living without worry. ”
"That's right."
"And although we are tired of the intrigues of the Central Plains, we still like the things of the Central Plains, whether it is silk, ironware, or food...... There's no way I'm going to rob it! If you want to change it...... Why don't I raise some horses and exchange them with you! You won't cheat me. Kim Jong Kook smiled, "And don't you just need a source that can supply you with a stable supply of military horses?" I'm more reliable than the Huns! ”
“…… I'm afraid these words were taught to you by my sister-in-law, right? Xu Huabiao glanced at Yin Enhui next to him.
"This ...... Hehe, that's the reason anyway. If that's fine, that's it! After the beginning of spring, I will take the people who want to go with me and set off to the grassland, first to fight one or two tribes, expand the pasture, and then I will do military horse business with you. Don't fool me! Grace can be stared at! ”
"Well, don't worry!" Xu Huabiao nodded with a smile, and then looked at Zheng Yilin, "This matter is under the control of the Ministry of Rites, I don't want to hear a small report." ”
"Don't worry, my lord, this is a major matter related to the survival of Luoyang, and I will not neglect it." Zheng Yilin nodded immediately.
"I can't reach the height of survival...... Xu Huabiao shook his head, and then looked at Park Hyomin, the middle of the military department, "Hyomin, how many horses are there in Luoyang now?" ”
"There are more than 1,100 military horses." Park Hyo-min immediately replied, "The other horses...... I don't know. ”
"One thousand one hundred and forty-eight military horses, two thousand two hundred and fifty-five horses." Lee Ji-eun interjected from the side.
"That's it! That means that Luoyang can get a thousand cavalry now? ”
"Not yet." Li Zhien shook his head and glanced at Zheng Caiyan, the servant of the Ministry of Works, "According to the requirements of the lord, all cavalry must be equipped with saddles and stirrups, and must also wear at least light armor. ”
"When will there be a thousand cavalry?"
"Around June next year?" Lee Ji-eun seemed to be asking Jung Chae-yeon.
Jung Chae-yeon nodded.
Be quiet.
"Brother Xian, you really have a good housekeeper!" Yoon Eun-hye interjected with a smile.
"Well, that's why I dare to put Luoyang here with confidence and go out to wave by myself!"
Xu Huabiao's face was full of pride......
