Zhang Lang thought for a while and said to Dian Qing: "Old Dian, give the spears, shields, bows and crossbows and leather armor in the arsenal to the Feifeng Army. ”

The so-called Flying Phoenix Army is a female soldier unit established by Moon Shadow and Yan Yu'er more than half a year ago. However, now this Flying Phoenix Army is different from the paramilitary force that was originally conceived, and has become a standing military force.

The total strength of 5,000 people was all formed by the women who had been rescued from the Huns before. The leader of the team will be Moon Shadow, and the army will be joined by Yan Yuer.

The remaining tens of thousands of girls did not undertake any military duties, but worked productively in newly established printing and dyeing workshops, weaving workshops, and winemaking workshops. All of them are under the unified management of Chen Gong.

The main task of the Feifeng Army is to maintain law and order in Taiyuan and the surrounding areas, and in Zhang Lang's conception, they will not really go to the battlefield to collide with strong enemies.

Since this unit had not been issued with ordnance and equipment before, Zhang Lang would give such an order to Dianqing at this time.

When Dianqing heard this, he hugged his fists and promised. Moon Shadow and Yan Yu'er both looked happy, and they stood up together and bowed to Zhang Lang: "Thank you, General!" ”

Zhang Lang smiled: "Thank you is not necessary!" I just hope you two don't blame me anymore! ”

Everyone present laughed, Yan Yu'er blushed and couldn't speak, while Moon Shadow smiled: "It's me who complains about the general, and Yu'er's little sister has never complained about the general!" ”

Yan Yu'er was very ashamed, and couldn't help but whisper: "Sister! ……”

Everyone present looked at this Yan Yuer with a smile on their faces, and everyone liked this little girl from the bottom of their hearts.

Zhang Lang Zheng'er nodded and said: "I believe this, Yu'er is so well-behaved, it is impossible to complain about me!" ……”

Yan Yuer couldn't help but glance at Zhang Lang, looking ashamed and happy. And Moon Shadow glared at Zhang Lang with a look of annoyance, her eyebrows frowned slightly, her beautiful eyes were full of anger, and the beauty's light and angry appearance was really a touching style.

None of the people present were womanizers, but when they saw Moon Shadow like this, they couldn't help but lose their minds.

Zhang Lang came back to his senses and retracted his gaze, feeling that his mood was still fluctuating and difficult to calm down. He suddenly found that it was becoming more and more difficult for him to maintain a normal heart about this woman who looked like his ex-girlfriend.

Putting these messy thoughts behind him, he looked at Zhang Liao and asked, "Wen Yuan, how are the heavy cavalry assault tactics going?" ”

It turned out that in the past half a year, Zhang Lang selected 500 particularly strong and powerful war horses from the tens of thousands of Hun war horses captured.

Then select 500 heroes from the whole army, equip them with horse lance broadswords, fine iron plate armor and horse armor made of water hammers, and form 500 iron armor heavy horses!

However, before this, the nomads in the Central Plains, including the north, had never appeared in the hoplites, so the tactical application of hoplites still needed to be explored, and the matter was handed over to Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao hugged his fists and said: "After this period of exploration, my subordinates found that the advantages and disadvantages of the ironclad heavy cavalry are very obvious. The advantage is the iron-armored heavy spear, which can be said to be indestructible and indestructible, and it should be a sharp weapon used to attack and break the formation head-on.

However, the disadvantage is that the mobility is not good, and the horsepower consumption is very serious during the war, and it can almost only last for a pillar of incense.

Therefore, the subordinates thought that the heavy iron cavalry could only be used to place it on the front of the battlefield and launch a thunderous blow on the opponent at the right time, in order to settle the situation in one fell swoop!

However, if we cannot win in one fell swoop, we must withdraw quickly, otherwise we will not only not be able to play a big role, but I am afraid that we will suffer heavy losses.

To sum up, the Heavy Cavalry cannot fight alone, and must cooperate with other units to play a huge role.

But such cavalry has never appeared before, so it is difficult to say how effective it will be. ”

Zhang Lang nodded and muttered, "Only on the battlefield can we test whether he is a sharp weapon or a flashy ornament!" ”

looked at Chen Gong and asked, "Gongtai, what is the situation on the Huns' side now?" ”

Chen Gong hugged his fists and said: "Since the Huns retreated more than half a year ago, there has been almost no movement for more than half a year. According to the detailed report, the body of the Right Virtuous King has fully recovered, and he has been waiting for the opportunity recently.

In addition, there is unconfirmed information that King Youxian and several powerful Xiongnu princes are in contact with a mysterious force, but they have not been able to catch the slightest clue as to where that force belongs. ”

Everyone present whispered, and Zhang Lang muttered: "It seems that there will be another big war after the Chinese New Year." Looking at Chen Gong, he ordered: "Immediately send someone to Zhou Ren and Yang Yi to inform us of the information we have, and tell them to be careful." ”

Chen Gong hugged his fists and promised.

Zhang Lang thought for a while, glanced at everyone, and said with a smile: "Is there anything else you need to report to me?" ”

Chen Gong immediately clenched his fists and said: "General, there are two things to report on my subordinates, one is the growth of our Taiyuan population in the past six months.

In the past six months, many people have migrated around, and it is roughly estimated that Taiyuan has a total population of more than 550,000 including the 15 counties under its jurisdiction, and the real number should exceed 600,000. This figure should be more than a third higher than half a year ago.

The second thing is about taxes, and thanks to the fact that the business of various state-run workshops is getting better and better, our deficit this year should be about 30 percent lower than expected. ”

Zhang Lang rubbed his forehead and said with a wry smile: "This situation is not too bad after all. ”

Later that day, Chen Gong accompanied Zhang Lang on a stroll through the gardens of the Taishou Mansion, which had little vegetation. Chen Gongdao: "Regarding the construction of mountains and rivers, it has been completely on the right track.

At present, the mountain river is located on the bank of Zhaoyuze, and the total number of people has exceeded 3,000 under the cover of fishing and hunting.

And according to the general's orders, they all began to practice the most basic exercises of "Mountains and Rivers Jue" and the most basic martial arts of "Sword Dueling" and "Hurricane Shooting". ”

Zhang Lang nodded and said with a smile: "Very good, better than I expected." ”

Chen Gong frowned and said, "However, due to the current shortage of resources in all aspects, the mountain and river channels cannot continue to expand for the time being. ”

Zhang Lang smiled: "Don't worry. You can't eat it into a big fat person in one bite. Now let's concentrate on training these three thousand people first, so that they can grow into a secret force that can be used as soon as possible. ”

Chen Gong nodded.

Boom! A loud bang suddenly came from the street on the other side of the front door. Immediately afterwards, Xue Ling's shout came: "So bold!" Dare to spread wild in front of the Taishou Mansion! Let's go up and take down this maniac! ”

Immediately after that, the sound of the dense collision of weapons mixed with the sword qi and the sword light tearing through the air of the wind whistle sounded loudly. There was a fierce battle over there!

Zhang Lang and Chen Gong were surprised and immediately ran to the front.

Rushing out of the gate, he saw that the four powerhouses of Xue Ling, Zhao Jue, Fang Cheng, and Yan Lan were besieging a middle-aged man who was as majestic as a mountain and as imposing as a tiger.
