Chapter 1496

Gao Qiu came to this remote house in Xiazhou and spent two difficult nights. It was not until the early morning of the third day that Zhang Xiaojie came to the door again.

"Master Gao, I'm late, please don't blame me." After Zhang Xiaojie stepped into the yard, he smiled respectfully at Gao Qiu.

"As long as the old man can come, it's not too late..." Gao Qiu smiled and said perfunctorily, but his eyes fell on the middle-aged man standing behind Zhang Xiaojie and dressed as a servant.

This person also noticed the gaze that Gao Qiu cast, showed a kind smile, and his eyes fell on Zhang Xiaojie.

"Master Gao, this place is not very safe, why not talk to us in the room?" Zhang Xiaojie was very tactful and nodded secretly, and said to Gao Qiu.

"Of course it's the best. Please..." Although the middle-aged servant and Zhang Xiaojie's small movements were very concealed, he could hide it from the old driver Gao Qiu. Gao Qiu did not expose it and led the way first.

Soon, the group of three people walked into the house. The guards brought by Gao Qiu and the guards who came with Zhang Xiaojie surrounded the room.

Gao Qiu looked at the middle-aged man dressed as a servant with a smile, and without asking, Zhang Xiaojie could only clear his throat and actively recommend him.

"Master Gao, this is Master Xiao Shenxiao, the general manager of the Daliao River East Road..."

"Oh, it turns out that Lord Xiao is visiting the humble house in person. Please forgive me for being clumsy, disrespectful, and disrespectful." Gao Qiu then looked surprised and stood up and bowed to Xiao Shenyi.

At this time, even though Xiao Shen had served as the prime minister of Northern Liao, what he wanted to do now was to serve Song Ting, so he naturally did not dare to be arrogant and quickly stood up to pay Gao Qiu's favor. "I dare not be the tribute of Gao Master. In fact... I believe Gao Master should know more about Xiao's purpose."

Gao Qiu smiled and nodded slightly, raised his hand to signal Xiao Shen to continue. As Xiao Shen said, although Gao Qiu tried his best to suppress his excitement, the excitement in his eyes became brighter and brighter.

The new imperial guard camp of the Song Dynasty, which had been built for only a few months between the Guangji River and the Bian River, was 50 miles away from Kaifeng. Today, Wang Yang, Zhao Ji, and Cao Shi, the commander of the three yamen, came together.

"...As a result, I had to leave two elite cavalrymen from the camp. You know, it is not easy for my cavalry in the Song Dynasty to have such a little wealth.

If you want it, I gave it without blinking my eyelids. But now five months have passed. When will you get the effect here? At least I will give you a correct letter."

"I'm specially invited you to come today, isn't it just for this? General, don't worry. When you arrive at the place, you go to see the drills of the musketeers first, and then let's talk in detail."

"What are you talking about in detail? Let me tell you Lord Wang, although we have a good relationship, I have given you a thousand elites. If you ask me for someone again, there will be no one." Cao Shi, the old driver, looked at Wang Yang like a wealthy slave, vigilantly.

"Haha... General, don't joke. Even if you want someone, Wang will go to find Your Majesty, not General. Last time, I asked General, you to transfer another battalion of cavalry to me. In the end, Wang found His Majesty, and His Majesty spoke. You finally sent the person to me." Wang Yang fought back angrily.

"The important thing is that training an army with brand new weapons is not just a verbal statement. General Cao, you may not know that the ammunition consumed by the militia cavalry of only a thousand cavalry every month is worth this number."

"Five thousand guan... Hiss, I said, Lord Wang, it's only a thousand guan, and I have to spend so much money in a month. If I have collected 10,000 yuan, wouldn't I have to throw 600,000 yuan of money every year? How can I support such a team in the Song Dynasty..."

Wang Yang laughed and explained to Cao Shi. "This is nothing to do, but the combat power of this army will definitely exceed your imagination. When it comes to the military exercise, you will know what it means to be worth the money..."

"Think about it, they are cavalry. When they are successful in training, who do you think will be the credit of the general? Is it just the contribution of Wang and His Highness? You are the commander of the guards of the Third Office of the Song Dynasty..."

Cao Shi smiled and immediately changed into a kind expression and said, "That's natural. If it weren't for this, why should I work hard to follow you so far to come here to see this trip."

"General, let's go ahead... Forget it, the military camp is right in front of you, let's go over quickly." Wang Yang rolled his eyes wide, ignored Cao Shi, and rode his horse towards the military camp that could already see the outline clearly.

However, when there was still a little more than a mile away from the military camp, the crisp sounds of General Cao's cavalry made General Cao's mount retreat and unwilling to move forward.

Not only him, but also the cavalry under the command of the three yamen generals who came with him were frightened and loud.

Wang Yang and Zhao Ji looked at each other, and the eyes of the two guys were filled with gloating smiles.

"Sir, Wang thinks it's better for you to get off the horse and walk. The closer you get there, the louder the musket sounds, and it's not even much smaller than the cannon sounds of the Imperial Artillery Battalion." Wang Yang said seriously.

"You kid, why didn't you explain it in advance? I think you did it on purpose, right?" Cao Shi turned over and jumped off the horse's back helplessly. Seeing the expressions of Wang Yang and Zhao Ji, two brothers, admired each other, pointed at the guy with some amusement.

"How can you do it? Wang isn't squatting on the back of a horse and watching the general, you and all the generals' jokes. Let's just lead the horse together..."

Wang Yang took the initiative to jump off the horse's back. Now Cao Shi had nothing to say, and could only follow the boy with a resentful expression. Stop it. Anyone who offended him would always find a way to retaliate.

Thinking of this guy's promise to him that he had given him two battalions of cavalry, but later he made a big deal of his words.

I have long heard that Wang Yang is not as good as the needle hole. Now it seems that it makes sense.

When we entered the military camp, the crackling sounds like fried beans inside were endless. The sharp whistle and the rapid sound of hooves also made Cao Shi and the three generals who had just arrived were stunned.

There seemed to be a faint blue smoke above the entire camp, and the nose was filled with the smell of gunpowder after the burning of gunpowder.
