Chapter 360: Buying a Horse

Everyone listened to the blood boiling, and after a while of exchange, they took the soldiers and horses of each battalion down the mountain to train, and looked at the excited appearance, it was impossible to come back until dark. Pro-Shell Pavilion

"How many military advisors, how is the army?"

Sun Lei smiled and looked at Xiao Jiasui and the four.

"Ten times more invincible!"

Wen Huanzhang smiled and arched his hand, after seeing the Liangshan army, he really realized that Sun Lei's original words were not a joke, the Liangshan army can already be said to be the best in the Song Dynasty, although he has not seen the Liao State and the Western Xia army, but the combat power cannot exceed the current Liangshan army.

"The younger brother has seen the army of foreign races, and the army of Western Xia of the Liao State is not as good as the army of our Liangshan."

Xu Guanzhong opened his mouth and said, he is now convinced of Sun Lei's words, now there are more than 10,000 elite troops, as long as they develop steadily, they can become hundreds of thousands of troops within a few years, this is really the power that can sweep away the universe and change the world.

"Haha, now the horses, weapons, armor, and ships are worse, and when these are complete, our Liangshan army will be invincible."

Xiao Jiasui said with a smile.

"Only this horse is not easy to solve."

Sun Lei said helplessly, everything is easy to solve, there is no shortage of coal in Shandong, there is also iron ore, and timber is not a problem, but this horse can't solve it.

Nowadays, all kinds of ordnance in Liangshan are actively building, with Meng Kang and Tang Long, weapons, armor, and ships are no longer a problem, but the most important horses in the cold weapon era are not easy to get, and almost all the civilian horses are in the hands of the government. Yangsan now has just over 1,000 horses, of which nearly 400 were captured from Jeju and nearly 300 were brought by Boo-wook Dry Tree Mountain.

"Brother, it's better to send someone to pretend to be a horse trader to Liaodi!"

Xu Guanzhong thought for a while and said, horses are really not easy to solve, even if you start raising horses now, it is too late, so you can only go to the north to buy them.

"Is this horse easy to buy?"

Xiao Jiasui looked at Xu Guanzhong and asked, he has been active in Jingnan all the year round, and he doesn't know much about things in the north, and I'm afraid that it is not easy to buy armaments like horses.

"Brother Xiao is too worried! If it was a hundred years ago, the Liao State naturally refused to sell war horses, but now the Liao State has long been decayed, the Liao land is bitter cold, and the output is not much, and the only ones that can really be sold are cattle, sheep and horses, which are prohibited by the upper echelons of the Liao State, and there are not a few people who sell them privately. ”

Xu Guanzhong said with a smile, the Liao Kingdom is not much better than the Great Song Dynasty now, as long as the valuable things like war horses are not smuggled in large quantities, no one will go back to check at all.

"That's a great idea!"

Sun Lei was overjoyed, he could indeed send someone to the north to try to sell some horses back.

"Brother, the younger brother is willing to go to Liao, the younger brother is proficient in foreign languages, and his family has also gone to Liao to do business, and he knows some people!"

Xu Guanzhong immediately clenched his fists and asked for his life, Liang Shan far exceeded his expectations, this is not a simple bandit village, everyone in the village has the ability, doing what they are good at, he also wants to give full play to his strengths, he is not as good as Wen Huanzhang when it comes to the art of war, only this knowledge is quite broad.

"Brother, younger brother also wants to go back to Jizhou."

Gongsun Sheng also said to Sun Lei.

"Gongsun Daochang is also going back?"

Sun Lei looked at Gongsun Sheng and asked.

"Brother, the younger brother has been away from home for more than a year, and there is still an old mother at home, and I want to go back to pick up the mountain."

Gongsun Sheng said to Sun Lei, now that his heart is in Liangshan, he will definitely be in Liangshan all year round in the future, and his mother will definitely not be able to stay in Jizhou alone, so it is better to come to Liangshan to enjoy happiness.

"It's me who didn't think it through, and it really should be!"

Sun Lei nodded, Xu Guanzhong, who came back with him this time, had already picked up his old mother to the mountain, and after An Daoquan's treatment, he had improved a lot, and Xu Guanzhong had the idea of going to Liao to buy a horse with peace of mind.

Ling Zhen is a native of Yanling, his mother and wife are on Jingxi Road, Zhu Fu has already brought someone to pick him up, seeing all this, Gongsun Sheng is naturally thoughtful, and he doesn't want to leave his mother alone to suffer in Jizhou.

"I need some capable people to go to the north!"

Sun Lei pondered for a moment before he said, whether it was Xu Guanzhong's initiative to ask Ying or Gongsun Sheng's homesickness, he couldn't stop it, but the north was not safe.

At night, in the Gathering Hall, everyone who had been training for an afternoon of soldiers gathered together with a smile and a big feast tonight.

After the division of the battalion, there was competition, since ancient times, there was no first, there was no second, and the warriors all wanted to win the three armies.

"Brothers, today I discussed some ordnance issues with several military advisors, and now there is no shortage of swords, guns, armor, and warships, but war horses are a problem."

Sun Lei looked at the jubilant crowd and cleared his throat and said, now the war horses are less than half of the number of the horse army, and the infantry army may have to be equipped with a small number of war horses.

Sun Lei considered Zengtou City, where there were more than 10,000 war horses, and now Liangshanbo also has the strength to fight Zengtou City, but Zengtou City is too far away, and there are many state capitals between them.

When the generals of the Ma army heard this, they immediately looked at Sun Lei, they have discovered this problem in today's training, there are only two hundred war horses in each battalion, how can five hundred people be trained? The training effect of rotation is too poor.

"This time, Xu Junshi and Gongsun Daochang are going north, and I will pick a few people to accompany me."

Sun Lei looked at everyone again and said, everyone was gearing up, and they all wanted to go out and perform well.

"Shi Xiu, Wang Dingliu, you two selected dozens of smart and strong minions to accompany you, and everything on the way was arranged by Xu Junshi and Gongsun Daochang."

Sun Lei pointed out the three of them and said, Shi Xiu is the best candidate, he was going to go to the north to sell sheep and horses with his uncle, and he went to Yanyun to get in touch with him, maybe he could find a way. Wang Dingliu is fast, and there is no problem in listening to errands.

In terms of safety, Sun Lei is not worried, Xu Guanzhong has been in martial arts, and he has traveled too much, although he has not made a move, but his skills are definitely not bad. Gongsun Sheng also needless to say, Dao Chang's skills are not limited to martial arts, this spell is "the same", and there are few people in the world who can stop him.

With these two people leading the team, and Shi Xiu and Wang Dingliu following, there is still no danger in the land of Yanyun.

"Yes, brother!"

Shi Xiu and Wang Dingliu got up and hugged their fists, Shi Xiu never wrote to Yan Yun's uncle, it was because he was worried in his heart, how could he not be happy to be able to go now.

"Jiang Jing, you have the money ready tomorrow."

Sun Lei looked at Jiang Jing again and said, money is naturally indispensable to buy horses, but fortunately, the most money in Liangshan is now, whether it is the business in Liangshan Town or the private salt trade, it is extremely prosperous, and now this business is all over Jingxi Road.

"Yes, brother!"

Jiang Jing said with a smile, since the cash-for-work scheme, Liangshan's labor costs have dropped significantly, and he has money in his account, so there is naturally no problem in buying horses.
