Chapter 436: Wait for him to return to Beijing
Chang Polang's heart became more and more suspicious.
His eldest brother, surrendered?
"It's just that we're not sure if he's a dragon warrior or not. Therefore, it is still necessary to guard against the Northern Hebei Army, and General Chang has paid more attention to it recently. Liang Xiao admonished.
Chang Polang agreed, knowing it in his heart.
After all, the source of the war horses of the Northern Hebei Ranger is either the horse merchants of the Western Regions or Guanlong, and Guanlong must indeed prove it with actions......
Loyalty and righteousness are difficult to achieve, he can only abide by his duty and pray that Long Wushuang can really surrender.
After all, if you count Liang Xiao's upcoming position as the secretary of the military department, Liang Xiao's status in the military circles of the Great Zhou Dynasty has risen all the way, and he has obviously surpassed Wei Chiping and Gongsun Xunfeng.
The strength of the army under Liang Xiao has confirmed Lin Shi's opinion of Liang Xiao.
For Liang Xiao, you can only make friends, not enemies!
The power of the big bow and the longbow, he also appreciated.
On the same day, the capital sent a new batch of longbows and big bows, 2,000 each.
Liang Xiao was immediately used to equip the Yanzhou military camp.
The double bow built by the Yanzhou Ordnance Supervision will take a little time to leave the factory.
Fortunately, there are many forests in the Youzhou area, which can be used to make arrows.
What he needed most now was arrows, not just a strong bow.
The heavy arrows required for the big bow require more wood and are more expensive to build.
However, the operation of the ordnance supervision also provided more jobs for the people, and to a certain extent, encouraged industry and commerce.
At present, the Great Zhou is still in a virtuous circle, and the government treasury also has a lot of surpluses, so it will not be reckless.
Especially after Diana privately donated 500,000 taels of gold, Duan Yunyi took this opportunity to issue a part of the silver notes and gold tickets, which not only increased the stock of silver tickets to the national treasury, but also injected vitality into the market.
In the past, most of the gold and silver in the country were kept in the hands of the rich, which was extremely bad for the economy.
Liang Xiao's wine and sugar initially improved this phenomenon, and with these treasury silver and gold to support the treasury, the country was more stable than before.
The captured Beihu war horses were all assigned to the northern cavalry by Liang Xiao, and the quality was not bad, even a little better than the war horses bred locally in the Great Zhou.
The extra 30,000 horses can be used to rotate spare and train new cavalry.
Lin Xiu ran over to report the situation of the war horse to Liang Xiao.
"As Hou Ye expected, the overall quality of the Beihu war horse is better than that of the local war horse. In the past, the military department and those big families did not stumble on the envoys of the imperial horses......"
Lin Xiu's face was very ugly.
The price of horses in Da Zhou is outrageously high.
In the Great Zhou before the Wu Dynasty and the disaster of moving the capital, a war horse was only about twenty-five taels of silver.
If it's just a simple pack horse, it's worth less than ten taels of silver.
Nowadays, ordinary pack horses need more than 20 taels of silver, and war horses need 80 taels to start.
The Ministry of War and those big families did not suppress the horse breeding industry, obviously worried that the Great Zhou would raise a cavalry that could compete with Beihu.
Liang Xiao comforted: "It's only a matter of time before they are liquidated, but they need to be broken individually, and they can't be rushed." For now, it is still necessary to deal with military enemies, and those families are more or less useful. ”
Lin Xiu only felt that his eyes were suddenly bright, and he was looking forward to the future more and more, and he couldn't help but worry.
How many more troops did Beihu have to go south?
If the Beihu people really prepared a large number of equipment, Yanzhou might be able to save itself, but it may not be able to rescue Guanlong and Liaodong in time.
If the enemy dares to take the risk of bypassing Yanzhou and attacking Liaodong directly, it will be the hard power of the armies of both sides and the command ability of the generals......
Three days later, Duan Yunyi finally received an urgent secret letter from Liang Xiao for 600 miles, and sent someone to Zhuge Hui to discuss.
Guan Long intends to surrender, but he still has some concerns about his own security and interests.
After reading the letter, Zhuge Hui smiled with relief: "Your Majesty should be able to properly arrange this matter." Liang Xiao can make Guan Long return to his heart, which is already a rare progress in my country. When he returns to Beijing, His Majesty can have a good discussion with him, and he should have his own opinions. ”
Duan Yunyi happily agreed.
Zhuge Hui thought of something again, and advised: "Your Majesty is already twenty years old, wait for Liang Xiao to return to Beijing......
Hearing this, Duan Yunyi, who was still full of joy, blushed.
"Prime Minister, wait for him to return to Beijing to discuss ......"
Zhuge Hui just smiled and said nothing.
He could see that Duan Yunyi was no longer as reluctant as before, which showed that there was a lot of drama!
Liang Xiao beheaded more than 30,000 Beihu cavalry before and after, captured countless of them, and became famous, and after being the Marquis of Lanling, it was not impossible to become the emperor of the Great Zhou.
It's a pity that the martial saint has faked his death so far, and the name of Liang Xiao's martial saint disciple cannot be announced to the world, otherwise who would dare to object?
The people of the Sword Clan knew that the Martial Saint was still alive, it was not a problem, as long as Duan Yunyi did not tell the world the news that the Martial Saint was alive and did not admit it, there was no need to worry.
It's the bitterness of their grandchildren......
Now, it depends on whether Duan Yunsleeve can be produced smoothly.
On the official road of the wilderness, twenty open-air carriages galloped towards the south.
In the carriage at the front sat Qin Xun and Qin.
Qin, who is a samurai, is holding the Qiushui Treasure Sword, his eyes are calm and smiling.
"I didn't expect your swordsmanship to be exquisite, this way you and I have joined forces, and we have already slashed eighteen killers, it seems that you have a lot of enemies."
Qin Xun smiled and said, "I assisted the Marquis of Lanling and brought so much false information to the various families, naturally some people hate me." ”
"You can be literate and martial, why don't you stay by Young Master Xiao's side, you must go to fight against the Tianri Sect, and you are not afraid of death?" Qin asked.
Qin Xun just looked at the south, calmly.
"Death is the most peaceful destination of life, and it is also the ultimate equality of the world."
Qin Fuzhang praised: "It is worthy of the Mo family's great son, the belief of Huang Chaoxue, rest assured, with our escort, no one will want to touch you a single hair!" ”
Beihu's army was gradually massed in the south, and the number was unknown.
Gongsun Wuji led the Great Zhou scouts, and after investigating the situation, he sent someone to report back in time.
"The enemy's army in the north of the mouth of the Great Wall is definitely more than 50,000, blocking the way, and the follow-up number is unknown!"
Liang Xiao analyzed: "With the strength of Hu in the north, if you don't have 200,000 troops and enough siege equipment, how can you dare to invade Yanzhou?" ”
Chang Polang suddenly became a little worried.
Needless to say, Gongsun Wuji's science and engineering.
However, the number of enemy troops is unknown, and Guanlong and Yanzhou are relatively passive.
If the enemy army suddenly wants to open, risking Guanlong's complete return to the Great Zhou court, and concentrating forces to only fight Guanlong, the Great Zhou side may not have time to rescue.
Moreover, Guanlong's defense was much weaker than that of Yanzhou, and there were not so many elite soldiers and sharp weapons.
Lin Xiu said: "Marquis Lanling, the enemy army of Beihu on the side of Guanlong is the commander of Tuoba Pavilion, maybe Tuoba Jun is also there?" ”
Liang Xiao nodded: "Is there a clever plan?" ”
Lin Xiu proposed: "Then we have to wait for the news from Guan Long's side, if Guan Long is in an emergency, our army can turn passive into active!" ”
The Beihu army north of Guanlong had already sent Pegasus in advance to send a message to Emperor Feng.
"Your Majesty! The Western Army, please instruct! ”
