Yanzhou, the central urban area, the southerner residential area, mansions stand here, but observing the wood and stone on the surface of the ancient houses, it is obvious that they are very old.

Liang Xiao stood at the door of the largest mansion, looked at the closed door, and asked the Xuanwei beside him: "Here, are you sure it's the ancestral house of the Wenren clan?" ”

Xuanwei said categorically: "Absolutely not wrong!" Even if time has passed, the location of Yanzhou Taishou Mansion has not changed, and based on this, we have finally found the exact direction. According to the owner of the mansion, during the previous dynasty, this was indeed the residential area of the Wenren clan. ”

Liang Xiao turned around and looked south.

The gate of this mansion is the official road to the south in the center of Yanzhou City, which extends to the gate of the city and is unimpeded.

The owner of the mansion was the patriarch of the Li family in Yanzhou, and when he heard that the empress intended to buy the mansion and give it to the princess of Rome, he took the initiative to hand over the deed without saying a word, and Liang Xiao also gave enough money.

This piece of mansion was sold for 10,000 taels of silver.

A moment later, hundreds of soldiers of the Liang family army walked out of it one after another.

"Master Hou, confirm that it is safe inside!"

Liang Xiao was relieved at this time, and after arranging for the sergeant to take care of the mansion area, he summoned Xuanwei.

"Your Majesty specially instructed that this matter should not be spread outside, and once the location is determined, someone will be sent to inform Princess Diana immediately after the repurchase of the mansion."

Xuanwei received the order, left Yanzhou on the same day, and rushed back to the capital non-stop.

Liang Xiao stared at the mansion thoughtfully.

"Why buy back a luxury residential area, why be so secret? Could it be that something important is hidden inside? ”

Considering Diana's friendly attitude towards Da Zhou, it was naturally impossible for Liang Xiao to send someone to dig three feet into the ground in this area.

can only wait for Diana to come over for acceptance, this is her right as a descendant of the Wenren clan.

After the affairs of the Wenren clan's ancestral house were arranged, Liang Xiao returned to the barracks and selected a part of the cavalry.

There are 2,000 qualified cavalry in the Liang family's army, all of whom are northern men who have riding experience and can be put into battle after training.

In the racecourse, the yellow sand flies.

Thousands of cavalrymen trained here in equestrianism and horse warfare.

Zhuge Ding accompanied Liang Xiao to watch everyone's training, and his heart was horrified.

Under the guidance of Liang Xiao, these cavalrymen were well trained and already had the qualifications of elite cavalry.

Lei Hong and others have Liang Xiao's guidance, and often lead the cavalry training, and in time, the cavalry of the Liang family's army will be the elite of the world.

He had long heard Zhuge Hui reveal that Liang Xiao was a senior disciple of the Martial Saint.

Who is the Martial Saint?

One person, one halberd, invincible in the world, the myth of the Great Zhou!

It was precisely because of the Martial Saint that the cavalry of the Great Zhou were able to defeat the Yan Zhao Iron Cavalry and drive away the Northern Jackal Cavalry who took advantage of the weakness.

Zhuge Ding believed that Liang Xiao's cavalry combat experience should be the true inheritance of the martial saint.

"The ability of the Marquis of Lanling is unfathomable!" Zhuge Hui was sincerely admired.

Liang Xiao smiled modestly and said, "I can't lead training and command at all times, and Da Zhou is still relatively short of riders." There are a lot of cavalry generals on Lao Dingguohou's side, but they can only charge into battle, and there are still few people who can train soldiers. Moreover, the number of cavalry owned by the Great Zhou was far from enough to break through Beihu. ”

Zhuge Ding asked: "Could it be that the Marquis of Lanling intends to recruit Anbei rangers?" ”

Liang Xiao bowed slightly.

"This army is relatively secretive, except for the attack on me this time, there is no clear record of attacking and killing caravans, but it can be considered. It's just that if you can pull up such a cavalry without knowing it, even if there are only a thousand people, the ability of its leader should not be underestimated. ”

"After I came to Yanzhou, I met a rice merchant named Qin Shuang, who had the appearance of a hero, and I had some suspicions that he might be related to the Northern Hebei Army. After all, he is in the Youji area, and there is a way to become a rice merchant. ”

Zhuge Ding's expression changed: "Then we must investigate this person as soon as possible, if the grain he purchased is used to support the northern Hebei rangers, the thieves will grow stronger in the future, and it will be difficult to clean up!" ”

Liang Xiao shook his head and said, "Xuan Wei is already investigating, but he has found nothing, his food sources and places are very regular." According to my speculation, perhaps those families provided grain and grass in the northern Hebei army, after all, they still controlled a large area of land. ”

"Thinking about the worst-case scenario, maybe those rebels in the country, such as the Tianri Sect, are also supported by those great families, after all, these rebels have no base!" Zhuge Ding said solemnly.

"The court will deal with them one by one, and for now you and I still have to worry about the cavalry. Without cavalry, it would be impossible to pursue the defeated army of Beihu, and there would be no victory to speak of. After all, the Beihu people are not without capable people, there is a precedent of Li Mu of the Warring States to encircle and annihilate the Xiongnu, and there are even Tuoba Shuanglong joining, like a tiger with wings, the enemy army will definitely not rush into the encirclement of our army. ”

Zhuge Ding nodded again and again, feeling the same way.

A commander like Liang Xiao was thoughtful, which made him quite respectful.

If he is replaced by other commanders, he may only be able to follow Li Mu's example to lure the enemy deeper, reunite and annihilate him.

For example, Lao Dingguohou tried, but in the end it was in vain.

The Beihu cavalry was far more cunning than imagined.

Liang Xiao found Lei Hong, and after handing over a manual, he repeatedly advised: "The Beihu cavalry can invade the border at any time, and they must not relax, but they should not be too nervous, and combine work and rest." ”

Lei Hong patted his chest and promised.

"The Sprinkle family has been following Hou Ye for some time, and they have benefited a lot, and they all know it! What's more, there is also General Zhuge to help! Those cavalry brothers also said that the court treats them so well, if they can't make meritorious contributions, they might as well apologize for their crimes! ”

Liang Xiao said with a smile: "It doesn't have to be so heroic, Liang Jiajun has his own ideological education, and he can train according to this." ”

Lei Hong remembered Liang Xiao's military orders and military law, and nodded in awe.

Liang Xiao finished his training and returned home.

Mu Qinxue and Gongsun Yue are "competing" in the account room.

Xiahou Qingyi was teaching Jiang Fuxue to practice swordsmanship, including postures, projects and drills.

"Brother is going out again?"

Jiang Fuxue noticed that Liang Xiao had changed into a set of civilian clothes, and couldn't help but ask.

Liang Xiao nodded and said, "I'll go visit the old man Dongye." ”

Jiang Fuxue hurriedly said: "Sister Tsing Yi, this is your responsibility." ”

Xiahou Qingyi nodded, holding the iron sword that Liang Xiao gave her, and looked at him silently.

Liang Xiao thought for a while and said, "It's just right, the girl in Tsing Yi will go together." ”

Xiahou Qingyi was overjoyed and immediately followed.

Jiang Fuxue looked at the backs of the two, sat down to rest, bored.

Duan Yunsleeve's meaning had already been conveyed to her through Mu Qinxue, and she only felt distressed.

Fortunately, this sister in Tsing Yi is indeed a very good girl.

In the courtyard of the Higashino family's house, Higashino Luoyue is making tea for his father Higashino Xuanji.

When the father and daughter heard that Liang Xiao was visiting, they were surprised and delighted.

"The Marquis of Lanling has no blame for your past, and in the future, you will change your mind and face, and there will be no more disobedience and slander."

Dongye Xuanji repeatedly told him, until his daughter agreed obediently, and then went to welcome Liang Xiao into the door, planning to take him to visit Dongye Canghai.

"Is her again?"

As soon as Xiahou Qingyi entered the door, his eyes, which were so beautiful that he could make people lose their minds, attracted the attention of Dongye Luoyue.

Higashino Luoyue couldn't help but follow.
