Come to Daming with military supplies

Chapter 636 I'm Not Enough Of War Horses

The rider must maintain a continuous impact at all times, which can only be achieved when the rider is good and the hands remain stationary relative to the horse.If the rider can maintain a good communication state with the horse, it will not hinder the hands on the front of the saddle or on the thighs, so that the hands are stabilized.

With both hands free, the cavalry can swing the saber and continue to slash and kill the enemy, thus killing the Quartet and winning the final victory in the battle.

Then I talked about turning and stopping when riding a horse, and finally how to release the bow and arrow when riding a horse, which can be fast and accurate, etc.

In short, this is a cumbersome process. Even if the cold front soldiers have good comprehension skills, they can't be learned in just ten days. Some things they only need to master the theory, and they need to continue to learn, master and apply on the battlefield in the later stage.

Yang Chendong also studied with Ma Xiongshan for three days.But after only three days, he had learned [-]% of what Ma Xiongshan would teach.Not only that, the tacit understanding between Yang Chendong and the white dragon horse has begun to form, and he can even make difficult moves one after another on the horse's back, for example, hiding his body on the side of the white dragon horse to avoid the opponent's long-range bow and arrow attack, such as Said that only one foot is hung on the stirrup, the whole body can relax and attack freely, and he even made a difficult move that even Ma Xiongshan could not do, that is, he soars into the air, kills the enemy and then falls back to the white Ryoma's horseback and so on.

With the flexibility of the body and the complete cooperation of Bailongma, after only three days, Ma Xiongshan announced that the sixth young master became the first outstanding student to graduate.This is not given based on status and identity, but an honor obtained based on real talent.

This matter naturally attracted the soldiers' amazement again and again.Then everyone was numb, it seemed that no matter what happened to the sixth young master, it was nothing but normal.

Three days later, after Yang Chendong graduated, he returned to the temporary command tent, called Zhui Feng, and asked about the progress of the matter.

The matter was ordered by Yang Chendong to Zhuifeng three days ago. In view of the current situation, the first thing to solve is the problem of horses. According to Yang Chendong, it may be too late to buy horses, and the quality of the horses just bought is different. It also takes extra time to train, so it would be better to just snatch other people's war horses.

Zhuifeng agrees with Yang Chendong's idea.After all, what is needed this time is not ten or twenty horses, but a full four thousand horses. If you want to rely on buying, you don't know how long it will take to complete the task.

Since it is decided to grab a horse, it is necessary to find a suitable target first.It just so happens that there are two Qianhusuos of Beiming on the left and one on the right of Haizhen, especially there is a Weisuo of Daming in the south.

The Weisuo system, also known as the Weisuo system, was the most important military system in the Ming Dynasty. It was founded by Ming Taizu, and its conception came from the Fubing system in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

Among them, Qianhusuo, also called Qianhuwei, refers to one thousand households (there are 1120 soldiers in the Qianhusuo, and there are ten Baihusuos, each with 112 soldiers. One has two general banners, each with 50 soldiers. people, there are five small banners under one general banner, and ten people per banner).

The general of Qianhuwei is called Wei Qianhu, and he is an official of the fifth rank.

Bigger than the Qianhusuo is the Weisuo. There are 5 Qianhusuos on the left, right, middle, front and back, consisting of five Qianhusuo and 5600 people.Set up a guard to command and summon one person, who is the official position of the third rank, and one thousand commanders are from the third rank; the commander is the fourth rank, and the guard is the official position of the fifth rank.

According to the military system of the Ming Dynasty, officers below the self-defense commander are all hereditary.From this point of view, the background of military officers in Ming Dynasty is very important. Many people who serve as generals are not so good at fighting, but because they have a good background.

Setting the target on Beiming Weisuo was something Yang Chendong couldn't do.Although he doesn't want to go to war with Beiming now, if it is really unavoidable, he will not be timid to fight.

"Six young masters, in the past three days, I have sent people to investigate this guard and two thousand households. Among them, Shuangcheng Guard has [-] healthy horses, Mao Lianwei has [-] healthy horses, and Jianzhou Guard has [-] healthy horses. Zuowei has [-] healthy horses, and the total number is [-] horses. Although it cannot meet all our requirements, it is not far behind. When we pay for some, the gap will not be too big gone."

Hearing Zhuifeng's serious words, Yang Chendong shook his head in dissatisfaction, "There are so many of them, are there just so many war horses?"

If someone else had said this, Zhuifeng would have made a big fuss about what such a war horse is.It is true that Nuergandusi has a vast land and abundant aquatic plants. However, there are not many self-raised horses, and most of them are purchased from foreign races.This also explains why in this area, the Ming army has the largest number, but its combat power is indeed not the strongest.After all, not only health horses need to be purchased, but also horse feed and so on. Together, it is a considerable expense.

"Well, no matter what, with these war horses, our strength can also be improved a big step." As if he had figured it out, Yang Chendong finally nodded and agreed to attack the three. Judging from his words, It was as if those horses had become his.

In fact, it is not difficult to do this. With the most advanced firearms, they can be caught off guard, and there is no reason to lose.The difficulty now is how to mobilize these war horses.

Of course, Yang Chendong can also take the initiative to attack the city, and he can also attack in it, but if he does that, he will definitely attract the attention of the Northern Ming court, and it is not impossible to send troops in because of this. The pressure from the Vala army is not what Yang Chendong wants to see.

"Can you find a way to mobilize them?" Yang Chendong tried to ask, looking at Zhuifeng.

"This subordinate should think of a way." Zhuifeng knew that it was time to test himself, and he had to perform well in the face of the Sixth Young Master.

Without guarantee, and without saying no, Zhuifeng got out of the big account and found the three battalion commanders under him and Ding Shan, the company commander directly under him, and told what the Sixth Young Master expected.

"Four, you are the backbone of the cavalry regiment, tell me now, do you have any ideas or solutions?" Zhuifeng looked at the four subordinates with the same expectation, in the spirit of the three cobblers. Zhuge Liang asked.

The four fell into silence at first, and after about two to three minutes, the third battalion commander Ma Xiongshan and the company commander Ding Shan raised their heads at the same time, and said in unison, "Sell the horse."

"Sell the horse?" Zhuifeng was stunned at first, but he soon came back to it with a smile on his face, "That's right, let's sell the horse. In this way, Company Commander Ding Shan will complete this task." , what is needed, the cavalry regiment will fully support."

The idea was conceived by two people, and Zhuifeng did put the task on Ding Shan's head. This is not to favor one side, but in his opinion, Ma Xiongshan is still serving as an instructor, and it is not easy to leave Yes, and more importantly, no one is more suitable than Ding Shan to complete the task of selling fake horses.Speaking of the reason, no one is more like a treacherous businessman than Ding Shan.

Ding Shan is the cavalry company commander of the company directly under the regiment, and is often responsible for the task of scouting out the enemy's situation.Sometimes even in order to detect the enemy's situation more clearly, he needs to go to the opponent's territory for a while. At this time, camouflage is very important.He didn't know how many times he appeared in the enemy's territory as a businessman and completed the task very well.So this task belongs to him.

"Okay." Ding Shan agreed without refusing, and then added after thinking for a while, "I have heard for a long time that Zhang Mingzhi, the deputy of the Shuangchengwei, is very greedy. I want to start with him."

"There is no problem at all. You don't need to report what you want to do. The sixth young master only needs the result. I hope you can perform better this time." Zhui Feng said seriously.

"Yes, I promise to complete the task." Ding Shan stood at attention, saluted a standard military salute, turned around and left the camp.

Ding Shan went to perform the task, and the training in the camp has not stopped. It has been training for nine days in a row. Everyone has made rapid progress. Tomorrow is the day of the assessment, and it is also the time when their identities are initially determined. Many people are a little nervous and excited.

In such an atmosphere, Ding Shan returned to the camp, bringing back a piece of good news that made Zhui Feng happy.Soon afterwards, he brought Ding Shan straight to the temporary command camp where Yang Chendong was resting.

In the command tent, Yang Chendong saw Zhuifeng and Dingshan, listened to their reports carefully, and had a preliminary understanding of the next battle plan.

Ding Shan is a young man who is not tall and always has a smile on his face.Perhaps it was because of that evil smile that made him feel more at home in disguise as a businessman, more lifelike.

According to what Ding Shan said, after receiving the mission, he went to the city of Shuangcheng, and after spending some money, he easily met Zhang Mingzhi, the deputy thousand household here.

Zhang Mingzhi got the position of deputy thousand by virtue of his ancestors and hereditary inheritance.People are just like their name, they are very wise in doing things, and they know how to do things in their best interests.

The reason why Zhang Zhizhi was found was precisely because he was a smart man.Ding Shan likes to deal with smart people, which can save him a lot of time and energy.

Zhang Mingzhi saw Ding Shan in a teahouse in the city, with his hands behind his back and his face covered.

For such a great Ming general, Ding Shan has seen countless times, always with a high-ranking look, as if he looks down on the world, but he really doesn't have much else in his stomach.

"General Zhang." Although he looked down on him in his heart, on the surface Ding Shan really kept his attitude extremely low. Isn't that what businessmen do?They only have interests in their eyes, and even in order to achieve their goals, there is no problem with letting them pretend to be grandchildren.

Chapter 637 Nuer Gandu Division

"Yeah." He greeted with a snort with his nostrils upturned, and after he sat down completely, he touched the teacup and said casually, "Your surname is Ding? I heard from Xiao Wuzi that you want to see me? Do you still want to talk to me?" I do business?"

The so-called little five sons are the middlemen that Dingshan is looking for, and they belong to a broker in the city, which is equivalent to the current middleman and introducer.Don't underestimate these brokers. Although their status is not very high, they have a wide network of contacts. There are many people who know people from all walks of life. There are many things that cannot be done in the eyes of others. Often, once they get in touch with one of them, things will turn upside down. The change.

"Yes, the younger one's surname is Ding, and he's the fifth brother I'm looking for." Ding Shan's obsequious expression fits perfectly with a businessman's smile when he sees people.

"Well, that's fine. It doesn't matter what your last name is. I will forget it afterwards. Just say what business you want to ask me this time. Let me tell you, this general is very busy. If it is a small business Don't waste each other's time here." A picture of a very busy work with a lot of things to do, completely ignoring Ding Shan.

Ding Shan didn't care about Zhang Zhizhi's contempt at all, and he didn't intend to have any friendship with this person. Everyone met for their own purposes. "Yes, since General Zhang said so, I will cut the long story short. I have a group of war horses on hand, and I am eager to make a move, but I don't know if General Zhang has any ideas."

As if out of instinct, Zhang Zhiming waited for the other party to finish speaking, and hurriedly lowered the price: "I think it's a big business, it turns out to be a war horse, huh, let me tell you... wait, what you just said What is it? A war horse?"

When he suddenly realized that Ding Shan was dealing with war horses, his face changed drastically at this moment, and he no longer had the careless look he had just now.

"Yes, it's a war horse." This time Ding Shan became serious.

After looking at Ding Shan carefully, Zhang Mingzhi seemed to be a bit disbelieving what the other party said, "What's your surname? Oh, Boss Ding, are you sure that you and I are trading war horses?" , instead of ordinary horses?"

No wonder Zhang Mingzhi would ask this question.The law of the Ming Dynasty has stipulated that private sales of war horses are not allowed.It's different with ordinary horses. As long as the quantity is not too large, private transactions are not prohibited.Of course, the price of war horses is several times higher than that of ordinary horses.

"Sure, sure and sure, 100% are war horses. Oh, by the way, General Zhang, please look out, see my healthy horse tied to the stake? That's what I rode, and this is one of them Horse." Pointing to the healthy horse outside the teahouse, Ding Shan said in a showy manner.

Although the current position is inherited by the military achievements of his ancestors, Zhang Mingzhi is not completely a fool, at least he has a certain understanding of horses, because he has done a lot of horse business before, but when it comes to war horses Really is the first time.

First of all, the trade of war horses is illegal, and no one dares to ask officials like them to do it.Secondly, who has a war horse and will sell it?Powerful people are afraid that the number is too small.

Suspicious, Zhang Mingzhi looked at the horse outside the teahouse. With his eyesight, he could tell that the horse was of good quality, muscular and full of strength. "This...horse is good, but how many are there?"
