Chapter 20: : Horse Trafficking
"Wentai just talk if you have anything to say, you don't have to be polite." Lu Bu smiled.
"Brother Fengxian, I think the cavalry in the Bingzhou army is elite, and I am longing for it. I want to form a cavalry. What about the southern horses, I wonder if Fengxian can sell some horses in the next?" Sun Jian stared at Lu Bu with scorching eyes.
The cavalry is a weapon on the battlefield. With the cavalry, the army can get the enemy's movements faster and earlier. Since the last time he saw the style of the Bianzhou cavalry, he has been preparing. All the horses in the general are gathered in one, day and night. Training, but the effect is not ideal. There is still a big gap between the horses in the Central Plains and the horses in Bingliang and other places.
Even with the horses, there is still a big gap in their riding skills. The formation of a cavalry is not an overnight effort. It requires the cavalry to have good horse control skills and be able to perform various actions on the horse, otherwise it will be a problem. Infantrymen riding on horses.
"Wentai, I won't go around in circles anymore. It's okay if you want a war horse, but you need to exchange it with materials of the same value, such as food, grass, iron, and money."
"Fengxian is really a happy person, but the army is out, and there is insufficient food and grass, and it is difficult to get together for a while." Sun Jian's joy also became lonely.
"It's okay, I can first subsidize Wentai five hundred horses, just in terms of price?" There are surplus horses in the Bingzhou army. Although they are eliminated, they are also excellent horses for the princes of the Central Plains.
"Thank you Fengxian," Sun Jian said gratefully.
"You my brother, a horse, I count you four thousand dollars." Lu Bu patted Sun Jian on the shoulder.
"Four thousand?" Sun Jian grinned. Four thousand is the price of forty stone meters. A family of three can eat for a year without food. A war horse needs three stones a month for food and grass, plus others to feed a war horse. It is equivalent to raising two soldiers.
"A word is settled." Sun Jian gritted his teeth and agreed. The price of four thousand yuan is not high anymore. I am afraid that some of the princes are rushing to ask for it, and Lu Bu is already enthusiastic about selling it to himself. He was before. When Ma Teng and Gongsun Zan ran into a wall, the princes of the Central Plains defended the frontier princes, and the frontier princes were not fools.
"Five hundred war horses, I will send General Cao to Wentai at the latest tomorrow." Lu Bu was also a little happy after completing a business. There is no shortage of war horses in the state. What is lacking is food and grass. The development of a state is not a land. Enthusiasm is enough, only when you have soldiers and food in your hands can you have the right to speak.
"Brother Feng Xian, our army lacks horses, and the riding skills of soldiers are a little weak, can we send cavalry to teach?" Sun Jian asked expectantly.
"Yes." Lu Bu readily agreed. As long as the stirrups are not exposed, the state cavalry has a great advantage among the princes.
Leaving the Binzhou military camp, Sun Jian was also very motivated. He seemed to have seen the cavalry sweep the battlefield.
Dong Zhuo, who was still insatiable with the violent expropriation, dug the tombs where the emperors of the past dynasties were buried, and loaded them with carts of gold and silver jewellery. Before he left, there was a big fire and the century-old capital was torch.
At this time, under the "violent" offensive of the Allied forces, the guard at Hulao Pass received the news that Dong Zhuo had abandoned Luoyang and left, and surrendered.
When the Allied forces rushed to Luoyang City, the fire was still not extinguished, and the village was uninhabited, so Yuan Shao had to order the army to be stationed in the wasteland.
Sun Jian was the vanguard and went to Luoyang to fight the fire.
Yuan Shao, who feels that he has made great contributions, began to think about it. Although Luoyang City was burned by the fire, he is still the number one person in the world. No one can compare. Such credit and reputation are enough to shine on the head of the family. What happened to the concubine? The action told the Yuan family that he was the first person in the Yuan family.
"Leader, now Dong Zhuo is holding Saint to go west, the army is about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and the leader is not moving, why is it?" Cao Cao said anxiously.
The princes in the tent stopped touting each other and turned their eyes to Yuan Shao. At this time, as long as Yuan Shao gave an order, the princes had to go in and pursue them.
"Meng De, the princes and horses have been fighting for days, and they are already exhausted. It is useless to chase the Dong thief." Yuan Shao calmed down.
Cao Cao coldly snorted: "Dong thief burned Luoyang, robbed the emperor, the world was shaken, and the world was shaken, and he didn't know where to return. When the world is dead, a battle can set the world, why hesitate to move forward?"
"Meng De, the armed forces are exhausted, don't move rashly." Yuan Shu persuaded, and the other princes persuaded them.
Cao Cao furiously said: "There is not enough work and planning." Yanbi walked away, led more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and went to chase Dong Zhuo in Starry Night.
Lv Bu shook his head, then walked out of the princes' tent, ordered the soldiers and horses together, and a route Chenglian led the troops and the wounded in the army to Bingzhou in advance.
The next day he led the remaining seven thousand soldiers with Cao Jun. In this battle, regardless of victory or defeat, he did not intend to come back again. The Allied Forces of the princes are dead in name. Dong Zhuo is now the richest man in the world. As long as he operates properly and Li Sudden support, a robbery, the people will have money, and the development of the state is not empty talk.
Let’s also say that when Dong Zhuo went to Xingyang, the prefect Xu Rong came out to welcome him, and Li Rudao said: "Xiangguo abandoned Luoyang, UU reading www.uukanshu.com to guard against the princes chasing soldiers, you can teach Xu Rong to ambush outside Xingyang city, if there are chasing soldiers, you can release However, when I am here to defeat the enemy and then intercept and kill, the princes will be terrified, and they will not dare to send troops to pursue them."
Dong Zhuo obeyed Li Ru's suggestion and ordered Huaxiong to attract 10,000 elite soldiers, only to wait for the army of the princes to kill him.
"The next official is willing to stay behind." Li Su said.
"Okay, Wei Gong led five thousand elite soldiers to assist General Niu to **** the grain and grass." Dong Zhuo's trust in Niu Fu is naturally not comparable to Li Su, and he doesn't care about Li Su's fight.
Cao Cao led the army to chase after night, and the scouts sent out batch after batch. What they got was basically the people's misery and the news of Dong Jun's brutality. He was so angry that he kept cursing Yuan Shao and others.
"Speed up the march and be sure to catch up with the old thief Dong Zhuo." Cao Cao urged.
"The lord, Dong Zhuo are all elite men, and our army has only 10,000. Be careful." Cao Ren persuaded.
"The saint is in trouble, how can I retreat as a courtier." Cao Cao said firmly.
General Cao Jun saw that this was not good enough to persuade him, so he could only continue to urge the soldiers and horses to move forward.
After chasing overnight, Cao's army was sleepy and running out of horses. Suddenly the drums were loud in front of him. Hua Xiong led his troops out suddenly. Cao Cao's front army could not resist and appeared defeated.
Huaxiong laughed and said, "Unexpectedly, Lord Li, there are princes who are chasing soldiers and kill them with this general!"
Cao Cao rode out and cursed: "The rebel, the emperor who robbed him, the migrants, and the immigrants. If you don’t get off the horse, you will catch them, or if the army arrives, you will be wiped out."
Huaxiong cursed back: "Courageless cowards, dare to fight with me!"
Xiahou Dun Prancing Horse pointed his spear and killed Hua Xiong. The two fought in one place, regardless of victory or defeat. Suddenly, there was a loud drum on the left, and Li Wei led an army and killed him from the left.
