Cao Cao liked cavalry and valued cavalry, which was not uncommon.

In Liu Xuan's memory, even if Cao Cao later became the most powerful minister of the Han Dynasty, controlling the court and coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, there is one merit that Cao Cao's people who dislike the most cannot ignore - Cao Cao sits on half of the north and places most of his soldiers and horses in the border towns to guard against foreigners.

Even Cao Cao's own juniors and even his own children would be sent to the border towns to learn about the threat of foreign tribes to the Central Plains.

From this point of view, Cao Cao is worthy of the name of the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, and even the heirs who inherited his career when he was alive also placed half of the soldiers and horses of Wei in the border towns.

When dealing with foreign races, cavalry is an indispensable and important type of troops - the flat terrain of the north, coupled with the vast territory of the Han Dynasty, if there is no cavalry with high mobility, many battles will not be easy to fight.

Liu Xuan remembered that Cao Cao not only attached importance to cavalry, but even personally formed an elite cavalry unit called the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, which became Cao Wei's strongest and most prestigious troops, and even many people who were on the opposite side of Cao Wei were having a headache about how to beware of this powerful cavalry.

This cavalry was not mentioned in the romance - in fact, there was almost no special mention of any special soldiers and horses in the romance, only a few were mentioned slightly, and the name of the tiger and leopard cavalry was only slightly mentioned in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Liu Xuan was originally thinking about whether he should take the first step to get out of this tiger and leopard cavalry, but he didn't expect that after seeing Lu Bu's Bingzhou Iron Cavalry this time, Cao Cao actually offered to form an elite cavalry. The cavalry formed by Cao Cao, what else can there be besides the tiger and leopard cavalry?

However, if the Haw Par Ride is really formed this time, I am afraid it will be very different from the original 'that one'. Because the original tiger and leopard cavalry existed more as a deterrent force, the tiger and leopard cavalry, the most elite cavalry of Cao Wei, had a pitiful record: only a few strokes, which was quite inconsistent with its status.

But now Cao Cao has made it clear that he wants to use this elite cavalry as the main support for recovering the northwest counties, so I am afraid that this battle will be one after another - now the hand of Dong Zhuo in the northwest seems to be pacified by killing Dong Zhuo in the northwest.

Liu Xuan knew that even if he killed Dong Zhuo, the northwest would not be in his hands. Not to mention others, Dong Zhuo's several major generals: Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, and son-in-law Niu Fu, which one does not have the soldiers and horses under his own control...... Even if you think about it with your ass, you know it's impossible.

"I must fight, not to mention that I have worked hard to manage so many generals, and if I don't go to the battlefield to sharpen myself, I can't train a really strong soldier. ”

Liu Xuan was thinking about this matter all the way: "As for what Meng De said about forming elite cavalry...... There is no shortage of good war horses in the Beijing Division, but it is difficult to find soldiers and generals who are good at horse warfare!"

The formation of cavalry is not an overnight thing, not to mention the source of troops, and he will not be able to find the commander of the army for a while. Cao Cao said that he sent his henchmen to secretly plan for the formation, but how many henchmen did he have now? There was no one else except Cao Cao.

"If you can collect Zhang Liao under Lu Bu's account, it is very suitable!"

Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, at this time, under Lu Bu's tent, are just ordinary commanders and generals, and they have not shown anything unusual, but Liu Xuan knows this person's future achievements, and Zhang Liao has been in Bingzhou for a long time and is familiar with cavalry tactics, if he can be commanded, then the combat power of the cavalry naturally does not have to worry.

"But...... If Zhang Liao wants to do this now, isn't that a hurry to send an excuse to Dong Zhuo? ”

Now his relationship with Dong Zhuo is regarded as well water and river water, the road is on one side of the sky, and he can still maintain the etiquette on the surface when he meets, of course, everyone knows how to know it in private, so there is no need to go into detail.

As for Dong Zhuo's support for himself to come to power, in addition to showing his power by abolishing the emperor, another reason is that he is a concubine.

If the son inherits the family business, he will be secretly buried in those big families, if the son of heaven is a concubine, maybe what those wealthy families will evaluate in private!

In addition, the status of the Shi clan in the world is extremely high at this time, if the royal family does not have the heart of the Shi clan, it is equivalent to losing the world, Dong Zhuo just wants to rely on this means to attack the royal majesty, so that it is more convenient for him to control the power of the court - many ministers in the court are representatives of many wealthy families, if these people are not close enough to the Son of Heaven, they will naturally not help the Son of Heaven deal with him.

In fact, Dong Zhuo wanted to support Liu Xie even more, because he was younger and more convenient for him to control the court. However, Liu Xie is frail and sickly, and there is no good excuse if he wants to support him to come to power - even if he is as arrogant as Dong Zhuo, he knows that this kind of abolition needs an excuse that the ministers can accept, otherwise he will not be able to do this at all.

In addition, there is another thing that Liu Xuan doesn't know, that is, since Dong Zhuo learned that Liu Xuan could defeat Hua Xiong head-on, he felt that Liu Xuan, the prince, was a person who was obsessed with martial arts, and such a person could not be good at tricks and tricks—and as an emperor, the most important thing to master was conspiracy and trickery, otherwise how could you see through the methods of the ministers?

After all, Liu Xuan is not even twenty years old, no matter how talented such a young man is, he can't be good at everything: if he is good at one thing, then the others must not be good at or even not understand at all.

It's a pity that Dong Zhuo would never have thought that Liu Xuan was not just twenty years old at all, even if he hadn't been involved in these things when he had built the empire with those people before, but he had seen some of them. In addition, the Lingtai is clear and clear, and the brain is active, some basic things can still be done well, and with Cao Cao by his side, it is enough to deal with it for now.

And if all of Liu Xuan's plans go well, then he doesn't need to bother with these things in the future, and any court struggle and the like will not appear in the dynasty he controls at all - he just needs his ministers to keep moving forward according to the goals he pointed out, that's all.

Sitting behind the bookcase, Liu Xuan held an ancient scroll and seemed to be reading, but in fact he was still thinking about the current situation in the court and what he was going to do next.

The book in my hand is just for the person in front of me to see.

Xun Yu stood respectfully beside him, because the Son of Heaven read the book, and let him take pen and ink and other things, so he also had to accompany the palace guard, and when the Son of Heaven stopped reading, he could only go back to rest if he had to remove these things - as a close minister of the Son of Heaven, although he could be closer to the emperor, but this work would not be easy, and even his own work and rest time would be based on the emperor.

Liu Xuan flipped through the scroll made of bamboo compendium, and raised his eyes to look at Xun Yu, this person had been standing there for half an hour, still steady, his eyes did not squint, and this concentration was enough to make people look sideways.

Putting down the scroll in his hand, Liu Xuan suddenly said to Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, what does the situation look like today?"

As soon as Liu Xuan said this, he noticed that although Xun Yu looked calm, his whole body still shook very covertly, if it weren't for his excellent eyesight, I am afraid he would not be able to see it in this dim light.

At this time, it was already past bedtime, but if the emperor didn't sleep, who could force it? Not only Xun Yu was waiting, but Cao Bao was also standing at the door, so that Liu Xuan could summon him at any time.

Xun Yu turned to face Liu Xuan and arched his hand: "I don't know what Your Majesty is asking?"

Liu Xuan smiled, and took out a blank piece of paper from his side with his backhand - it was said to be white paper, but it was still a little yellow, but at this time, it was already a first-class paper, if it weren't for the Son of Heaven, he wouldn't be able to take out such a large one casually.

"Come play a game with me!"

Although he has ascended the throne and become the emperor, he has not opened his mouth and closed his mouth is 'how I am', which is mostly used in the edict, and it is still how I am and how I am on weekdays - not to mention that the emperor of the Han Dynasty is not so big, in the final analysis, it is all from Gaozu Liu Bang, this rogue son of heaven is even in the edict is full of me, I, I almost didn't directly call Lao Tzu how it is.

"Your Majesty, tomorrow is the day when Cai Shangshu enters the palace and marries His Majesty, so it's better to rest early. ”

Xun Yu didn't understand, this new emperor who had been acting nothing surprising, why was he so abnormal today? He didn't sleep in the middle of the night and said that he wanted to play games? Could it be because he was going to get married tomorrow, so he was nervous?

If this is the case, Xun Yu is more and more disoptimistic about this son of heaven - the world is in chaos, the heroes are rising, the court has long lost control over the place, and the emperor is still working hard for a woman, what game do you want to play at this time?

"Could it be that the Han family is really irretrievable?"

Xun Yu is a child of the family, but he still has some feelings for this Han family, of course, it may also be because the Xun family is the vested interests of the Han Dynasty, and they do not want the Han Dynasty to perish, because it means new turmoil and redivision of forces, whether the Xun family can find the right choice again is uncertain for everyone.

In other words, the Xun family is loyal to the Han Dynasty to a certain extent, and Xun Yu, the talent of the new generation of the Xun family, may be a little more loyal than those elders - young people, more or less still have so much blood.

Liu Xuan didn't respond, just picked up the brush and drew on the white paper for a while, but after a moment's effort, a plausible map appeared in front of the two of them.

Then I saw him circle the middle of the position with a brush: "Only if there are many princes on this map, if Wen Ruo is one of the princes, then how can he become the lord of the world?"

Xun Yu was taken aback by Liu Xuan's words, and he even wondered if this new monarch was looking at himself unpleasantly and wanted to find an excuse to kill him? But when his afterglow swept onto the specious map, a flash of inspiration flashed in his heart, and he even exclaimed involuntarily.

"Huh, this is ......."
