The Golden Age Chapter 897: Ma Yuan


Liu Shutong let out an "Oh", Ma Yu hung up and walked to the tent door, opened a gap and looked out, then returned to Liu Shutong, lowered his voice and said: "Don’t hide it from your lord, Ma Yu Khan recently My health is very bad."

Liu Shutong was stunned, then he understood the meaning, and asked softly: "Does Secret Service want to say that the current True Feathers can be regarded as a group of dragons without a leader?"

"Abiga’s prestige in the tribe is second only to Khan, but he can maintain the current situation, but he is not qualified to inherit the Khan position." Mahan Shurui lowered his voice: "But his opinion is directly related to the Khan position. Heir."

Liu Shutong has a good understanding of the customs of the Xile people, and he knows that Abiga means a wise man in the Xile language. Such characters often win the trust and respect of King Khan and the awe of the entire tribe.

Liu Shutong nodded slightly, looking at Yuzui and asked, "So, can Yuhan reveal who will inherit the rank of sweat?"

"He became ill suddenly." Ma Yu shook his head and said: "The secret service and elders of the clan for these two days are waiting in the sweat court, but until now, he still hasn't said who will inherit the sweat." Frowning, sneered: "But I probably know what he meant."

"I heard that Zhenyu Khan had two sons and a daughter. The two special agents had died in battle many years ago, and only one Tagg remained." Liu Shutong thoughtfully: "Naturally, Tagg can't inherit the rank of Khan. , It can only be inherited by True Yu Khan’s brothers." Looking at True Yu Khan, he said, "Special Qin is True Yu Khan’s own brother, and the first warrior of the True Yu Department. It is only natural for you to inherit the position of Khan. Is it something?"

Mayu shook his head and said: "Master Liu didn't know. After my two nephews died in battle, Da Khan even regarded Wu Qing as a jewel. The wealth of the clan belongs to our Taq In the hand." After a pause, he whispered: "Mayu Uharu is indecisive and timid. If she controls the power of the Mayube, even if he knows that Tang is training troops in the northeast to attack the Mayu grassland, but Before one day, she will not act rashly."

"Special Qin meant that Mayu Tag might inherit the rank of sweat?" Liu Shutong was a little surprised.

"Master Liu's mother is from Xile, and you should know that Xile people have not never seen the Khan King." Ma Yuchui looked solemn and whispered: "Wang Hubu of the Black Forest, now She is a female Khan king."

Liu Shutong stroked his beard and whispered softly: "This is your family affair, I shouldn't have said more, but...I'll be honest, Mahabe is currently in a very difficult situation, Uqing Tag Can you bear such a heavy burden? And no one knows the reputation of Secret Service on the grassland. You can inherit the Khan status to deter the surrounding ministries and prevent them from acting rashly. If Wuqing Tag inherits the Khan status, I'm afraid ...!" With a meaningful smile, he did not continue.

"Although Da Khan has not appointed an heir, and Abiga has not expressed his position, Abiga and some people support Maha Uharu in their hearts." Maha Chui stared at Liu Shutong, and said slowly: "But if I Being able to inherit the Khan throne will definitely not give Long Ruijun a chance to enter the grassland. Before they grow up, they must be returned to the customs. In addition, I hope that after inheriting the Khan throne, I can visit the general in person, as long as the Liaodong Army Willing to be an ally of Mahabe, Mahabe will sell you horses at the most suitable price."

Liu Shutong smiled and said: "The sincerity of Secret Service, I will report to the general. I believe the general also hopes to see Secret Service take Mahabe out.

Dilemma. "

Ma Yube sweating is severely ill, and the tribe is nervous because of the inheritance of the sweat position. Qin Xiao, who is hundreds of miles away, naturally knows nothing.

Long Ruijun arrived in Songyang Pasture for several days.

To be honest, the Songyang pasture is quite vast, with a radius of tens of miles. Yuwen Chengchao specially inspected the grass stems of the pasture. Although it is not comparable to the most beautiful pasture on the grassland, the grass fodder is not. It is also suitable for war horses. The pastures in a radius of tens of miles supply thousands of war horses, which is not a big problem.

It’s the beginning of October. Looking around, the grassland is already yellow. Naturally, the horses cannot eat freely on the grassland. They need manpower to prepare the horse feed, and the weather will get colder and colder. Under the current situation, Long Rui The army’s forage for the hundreds of war horses can only be prepared on their own, and can not be freely ranged until the beginning of spring.

Before Long Ruijun set off, Qin Xiao and Yuwen Chengchao considered various difficulties, so when they set off this time, they also prepared sufficient materials. In addition to weapons and equipment, they also brought a lot of horse materials and materials. It is not a big problem to last for a month or two with food and grass.

When the saint promised Qin Xiao to leave the customs, the Northeast Armament Department will also be set up immediately. The Armament Department will be responsible for all logistics supplies for the Long Ruijun. Fully cooperate. After all, if there is a problem, it is the Long Ruijun who will be directly affected. All the food and grass supplies for the thousands of people will be transferred to the Armament Department. If there is a problem with Lin Hong, the military funds cannot be sent to the Armament Department in time. The Arms Department cannot prepare food.

Qin Xiao's last setback before leaving Beijing was to plead with the saint to agree to let Yuwen Huaiqian and Fei Xin participate in the preparation of the Armament Department.

This is Qin Xiao's decision after discussing with Yuwen Huaiqian.

Yuwen Huaiqian fully understands the principle that soldiers and horses do not move food and grass first, and knows that the key to the success or failure of Qin Xiao's training is not only in the aspect of elite soldiers. In the past few years, it is necessary to ensure that there are no problems in the Arms Department. Therefore, he actively suggested that he should participate in the preparation of the Arms Department, so that Qin Xiao's people would be included in the Arms Department, and Qin Xiao would be able to learn about it no matter what happened.

Qin Xiao didn’t really think about the issue of manpower placement in the Armament Department before. After Yuwen Huaiqian's heart-to-heart advice, Qin Xiao immediately realized the importance of this matter, and knew that only Yuwen Huaiqian would enter the military. Secretary, quite lonely, let Fei Xin also follow Yuwen Huaiqian to enter the Armament Department.

Fai Xin actually knew in his heart that as soon as Qin Xiao left and Su Yu returned to his hometown, Dali Temple immediately became a piece of loose sand. There is no future at all in Dali Temple. Maybe someday he would not pay attention and was arrested by the criminal department. Handle, you can't even save your life.

Although it’s not a good job to follow Qin Xiao to the Northeast to train soldiers, but it’s a lot safer to follow Qin Xiao in the Northeast than staying in Dali Temple. If Qin Xiao is really in the Northeast, it’s safer than staying in Dali Temple Opening up the situation, he hugged Qin Xiao's thighs. Although there will be no peace in the future, life will definitely not be bad.

Qin Xiao went to Zhezi and recommended these two people to enter the Armament Department. The saint did not hesitate and quickly agreed to Qin Xiao's request.

The Armament Department sent officials directly to the northeast by the saint, and had to transfer officials from the Ministry of Households. Qin Xiao did not have the energy to ask about this, but a few days after arriving in the Songyang Pasture, he had already received Yuwen Huaiqian

In the letter, it informs that the officials preparing for the establishment of the Armament Department have arrived in Yingping County and have decided to establish the Armament Department Office in Shunjinfu City, Yingping County.

After receiving a letter from Yuwen Huaiqian, Qin Xiao's heart fell.

After arriving at Songyang Pasture, Long Ruijun immediately built a barracks warehouse in Songyang Pasture. After a few days, the barracks have been completed, and the weapons depots, stables, warehouses, canteens and other construction facilities were also built at the fastest speed. complete.

"We only have more than three hundred horses at the moment." At dusk, in the big tent, Yuwen Chengchao looked solemnly: "The Long Rui army has more than 3,000 people, one of the ten who can be assigned to the horses. The general knows. , Training the cavalry is not only training the soldiers' equestrian skills and fighting skills on horseback, but also an important thing is to cultivate the feelings between the horse and the cavalry. The horse is human, and the cavalry is with his horse day and night. Eating and drinking training, whether people or horses, will have emotions, and when they are fighting to kill the enemy, they can cooperate with each other. This is like getting along with people. Only after understanding the other's temper can you know how to get along better. "

Qin Xiao nodded and said: "I know what you mean, the war horse matter must be resolved, but now I am really in a hurry. My plan is that after the Armament Department settles down, there will be After the military funds are sent to the Armament Department, we can make a request for war horses to the Armament Department."

"The Ministry of War cannot allocate war horses, and the Liaodong Army will definitely not let us acquire war horses in the northeast." Yuwen Chengchao said solemnly: "The source of war horses is our biggest difficulty now. At present we can only train brothers' swords. With magic and archery, cavalry training cannot begin yet. If the source of the horses cannot be resolved for a long time, training the Long Ruijun into a cavalry team is wishful thinking."

"It is impossible to obtain a large number of war horses from a regular channel. With the current situation, it is almost impossible." Supervisor Xie Gaoyang sighed: "The Liaodong Army only sends one or two hundred war horses to the court every year, plus the Tang Dynasty. The war horses raised in various horse farms had not waited for the horses to come out of the cage. Those war horses had been separated by soldiers from all over the world. There were never a few war horses left on Taipu Temple’s books. And war horses have always been given priority to General Pei and the four northern towns. Taipu Temple did not dare to offend them. There is a saying that clever women cannot afford to cook without rice. Even if the saint wants to take care of us, the court has no horses, and it can’t take care of them much."

Qin Xiao smiled and said: "If you can't get the horses through the formal way, we can only think of other ways." Xiang Yuwen Cheng Chao said: "Daddy, didn't you say that there are good horses on the Zhenyu grassland. , Their horses are not only excellent, but also numerous."

"Yes." Yuwen Chengchao nodded and said: "Why, the general wants to get a horse from Mahabe?" He shook his head and smiled: "This possibility is too small. A ban on horses has been imposed on the grassland, and the target is like A large tribe of horses like the True Feathers. I heard that Tiehan coveted the horses of True Feathers before the ban on horses, but he might be worried that if he sent troops to Modong, it would cause the same enemies of other Xile tribes. , Did not act rashly, but used the ban on horses as a means to prevent war horses from flowing into Datang, and secondly, they also took the opportunity to use war horses on the grasslands for their own use. Mahabe could not trade war horses with Datang and Bohai, only They can do business with the prairie tribes, and they must also do business with the Durhu tribe. Even if we take the money, they will not dare to do business with us openly."

Zhang Tailing said by the side: "Master, don't those Xi Le people still worry about us going to grab their war horses? He thinks that we train our troops to beat them and will definitely not sell our war horses to us."
