  Chapter 707 Divide the horse

  As soon as he entered the study, Chen Wu lifted up his robe and knelt down. Zhao Hanzhang, who was walking in front, was startled, and hurriedly turned around to help him, "Oh, General Chen, what are you doing?"

  Chen Wu insisted on kneeling, and said with a serious face that he and Qihuojun had been conquered by Zhao Hanzhang's charisma over the past year.

  He hoped that Zhao Hanzhang could accept him and accept the begging army.

  Zhao Hanzhang was stunned. She thought it would take another year to subdue the begging army, but she didn't expect him to suddenly submit to him.

   Zhao Hanzhang's heart moved, and he immediately understood why he chose this time.

  This is for the horse who just came back.

To be honest, she really didn't intend to keep horses for the beggar army. Naturally, such good things should be cheap for her own people first. The Zhao Jiajun, Erlang and Bei Gongchun she personally led all needed horses. This time the horses even Zhao Ju They didn't get assigned, and Xun Xiu and other Yuzhou Army, naturally, it was not the turn of the half-outsider begging army.

  But now...

  Zhao Hanzhang helped him up with a smile, took him away, and then asked: "I remember that there are not many horses in your army, and most of them are poor horses for transporting goods."

   Chen Wu nodded again and again, indicating that yes, the begging army only had six horses that could be ridden, and the rest were cattle and poor horses for pulling goods. Everyone fought by running on their legs.

  So poor, let alone buying horses, their armor ownership rate in the entire army does not exceed 30%, and their weapons and equipment are the weakest among the Luoyang armies.

   But this is the case, when they fought against Zhao Erlang's Zhao family army with wooden guns and sticks, they were still able to fight against Zhao family army.

  However, in order to take care of Zhao Erlang's face, Chen Wu, who considers himself tactful, deliberately selected some weak and thin soldiers from the army to fight, and after a while, the two sides barely drew.

  Zhao Hanzhang naturally knew how powerful the begging army was, and he didn't think that the pawns under Zhao Erlang could defeat the begging army in this way on the real battlefield.

You must know that after the fall of the Central Plains, the Qihuo army alone guerrillaized in the north, and has been refusing to surrender. It blocked Shi Le and Liu Cong many times. small.

The begging army is not limited to Chen Wu. In Jizhou and Youzhou, there are begging troops from Bingzhou. They are all gathered refugees. They rely on crude weapons to fight against the barbarians. It was rated as the most ferocious and powerful peasant army in history.

  The begging army of Chen Wu lasted the longest. When he was there, he fought with Shi Le in the Pengguan area. For nearly ten years, Shi Le failed to capture Pengguan.

   It was not until his death that Chen Chuan led the begging army to surrender Shi Le, but that was also Chen Chuan's personal will, and the begging army as a whole was unwilling to surrender.

   Such a strong and backbone team is in the hands of Zhao Hanzhang today, and she naturally wants it to become stronger.

  However, the best thing about the Qihuo Army is infantry combat, and Zhao Hanzhang does not intend to favor them in the allocation of horses.

   Hearing that Zhao Hanzhang only planned to distribute his 20 horses, Chen Wu was slightly disappointed, but before he lost them, Zhao Hanzhang mentioned their weapons and armor.

  Chen Wu's eyes lit up, and he looked at her excitedly.

  Zhao Hanzhang said: "General Chen comes here once in a while, why not stay for a few more days, let's go and have a look at the arsenal together, the broken weapons in your army should also be replaced."

"Yes Yes Yes."

   "I'll ask the Weapons Workshop to start making some armors. I don't know if the Huns will go south next year when there are no battles in winter."

  Chen Wu: "Yes yes yes."

  Compared with weapons and armor, of course weapons and armor are more important.

  Chen Wu is ambitious and wants to form a cavalry, the world is the general, who doesn't want an invincible cavalry?

  But he knows more about the strengths of the begging army, and if an army wants to survive, he must maintain his strengths. If no one can replace him, the army will last for a long time.

  His infantry, the ferocity of the Qihuo army and the aura of putting them to death are the reasons for their constant victory. If they can optimize their weapons and add armor on this basis, the Qihuo army will be even braver.

   Come to think of it, he's barefoot, in rags, and can cut a **** path with a knife that isn't sharp enough, not to mention, now he can wear shoes, armor, and a sharp weapon.

  When Chen Wu came out of the study with Zhao Hanzhang, he couldn't hide the smile on his face, his mouth was almost grinning behind his ears.

  Bei Gongchun's heart sank when he saw it, and he couldn't help but look at Xie Shi. This time, the horse, the envoy, didn't all give to the beggars, did he?

  That is naturally impossible.

  Besides the pony that failed to go to the battlefield, Bei Gongchun got the most horses this time, followed by Zhao Hanzhang and Zhao Erlang.

  Of course she also wanted to build an invincible cavalry in the Zhao family army, but she knew that Bei Gongchun's Xiliang army was the best than the cavalry.

  Now that there are good horses, we still have to keep up with him first.

   Bei Gongchun left contentedly, and Chen Wu was also very satisfied, and ran to chase Bei Gongchun.

  Although he temporarily gave up his plan to form a cavalry, the beggar army will definitely want a cavalry in the future, so he should first establish a good relationship with Bei Gongchun, and he can ask him more for training in the future.

  Bei Gongjun was also willing to meet Chen Wu, and the two went to the restaurant to drink shoulder to shoulder.

   Xie Shi stayed behind, and when they left, he said to Zhao Hanzhang, "Master, Zhao's army should still have a brave cavalry."

  Zhao Hanzhang nodded, "Not bad."

   "Do you think you should lead the cavalry yourself, or leave it to someone else?"

  Zhao Hanzhang raised his eyebrows and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Xie?"

"I think that you can't train your troops every day, so you should leave this matter to the little general," Xie Shi said, "You are the commander of the Zhao family army. Whether it is Zhao Ju, Qiuwu or the little general, they are all your subordinates. Why don't you let me know?" Hand over the cavalry to the little general for training."

  Zhao Erlang didn't know a lot of words in the past two years, but his kung fu is getting better day by day, probably because he has exercised a lot. The fifteen-year-old boy is strong and strong, with great strength, and his martial arts are not weaker than Zeng Yue and others.

  Even if it is an immediate martial arts fight, he can draw with Zhao Hanzhang, and he has made dozens of moves under Bei Gongchun's hands.

  Zhao Hanzhang looked at Ji Yuan.

   Ji Yuan nodded after thinking for a while, "This method is good."

   Zhao Hanzhang agreed.

   Xie Shi took advantage of the situation and said: "There are still too few horses in the army. If you want to form a cavalry, you have to buy more horses."

   After finishing speaking, Xie Shi stared at Zhao Hanzhang.

  Zhao Hanzhang:…

  She rubbed her forehead, looked at Fan Ying, "How much money can I get out of the warehouse?"

  Fan Ying said: "Mr. Ming said that we have to set aside 1 million yuan for emergencies. For the rest, according to the accounts reported by various places this year, there is still a shortfall of 8 million yuan."

  She paused and said: "But besides the money that has been decided to be allocated at this stage, there is still 3.58 million money available."

   It sounds like a lot, but Zhao Hanzhang habitually exchanged money for silver. Isn’t this more than three thousand taels of silver?

   How many horses can you buy?

  Zhao Hanzhang lowered his eyes, horses, according to the unit price reported this time, you can buy a lot, but in fact the travel expenses are more valuable than the horses.

  Zhao Hanzhang ordered the table and asked: "I remember Wu Erlang said yesterday that Xianbei doesn't like our new money, but wants us to exchange it with colored glaze, cloth and porcelain?"

   "Yes," Ji Yuan nodded, "There are also salt and iron utensils."

  Zhao Hanzhang: "Don't think about salt and ironware. We don't have enough for ourselves. It is strictly forbidden to buy ironware, copper and salt with barbarians."

   Everyone should go down.

  Zhao Hanzhang said: "Let people weave more cloth. Next time we will barter. As for the money in the warehouse, use it for travel expenses. Let the workshops hurry up. This time when the Jinyang army leaves, let Wu Erlang follow."

   That is to say, Wu Erlang doesn't have to go to other places for the time being, and he will go to the direct trade between Jinyang and Luoyang first.

   It was Gao Hui's caravan that went back to Luoyang with Wu Erlang.

Good night
