Chapter 1 Drums (Part 4)

Chapter 1: Drums (Part 4)

If the news brought by Zhao Huaixu is true, Wang Xun's imperial edict to ennoble him is on the way. According to the rules of the Tang Dynasty, a county prince can have one wife and three concubines, that is, one head wife and three equal wives. As for concubines and warm wives,

There are no restrictions on bed maids. Therefore, it is not a problem to bring Xiaozhuo and Xiaomai back to Chang'an. What he doesn't understand is why the other party would make such a disappointing request in a daze. He wants to ask more questions.

, but couldn't bear to push Xiao Zhuo awake, so he could only smile and lay down gently to fall asleep.

Mai's hand also stretched out from the back and hugged his shoulders tightly. "Don't blame sister, she has been scared for more than half a year!" Pressing her face against Wang Xun's thick spine, the girl gasped and begged for permission, "

What she fears most is being left here by you. She can neither go home nor find any way out..."

Thinking of how the locals treated the woman who was sent home by her husband, Wang Xun suddenly realized. Going to Datang, for Xiao Zhuo, not only meant enjoying the prosperity there, but also completely changing his destiny. Especially tonight, by taking advantage of the

The drunken Tang Dynasty was probably an irresistible temptation for any woman who had ever lived in fear of being burned to death.

Is this a transaction? When passion has a price, it becomes boring. But even if it is an exchange, so what? He once promised his father to take them away from Dayuan. When he woke up just now, the woman in his arms suddenly

He flattered himself in every possible way. A little tired, but also a little confused and regretful, he fell into a deep sleep until three o'clock in the morning the next day.

The operation of the Governor's Mansion has slowly been on the right track. The arrival of Zhao Huaixu has given the army more strength. He has more experience in military training than Wang Xun and others combined. As soon as he took over, the army of the Governor's Mansion was immediately improved.

Changed appearance.

In addition to military training, Zhao Huaixu also put forward some targeted improvement suggestions for the composition of various arms in the army based on past experience and possible opponents in the future. Training of heavy armored cavalry is difficult and costly, and its role in emergencies is also limited.

It is disproportionate to the funds invested in it, so it is better to be suppressed to less than two hundred in order to free up more horses and manpower to form light armored cavalry. The cavalry bow is inferior to Fubo in terms of range and ease of operation.

Crossbows, so simply use Fubo crossbows instead. As for long-range suppression, leave it to the infantry archers behind. There are many hills and plains in the Western Region, so the battles are naturally dominated by horse battles, and infantry with shields cannot play a big role.

It is better to reduce the organization and make way for the spearmen. The spearmen are no longer ordinary infantry. Each one is equipped with a war horse to facilitate long-distance attacks with the army, and then form a formation to fight after arriving at the location.

These suggestions were very practical, and Wang Xun approved them one by one. In addition, according to the natural conditions in the Zhezhe City area, Zhao Huaixu also proposed to add 500 camel soldiers to the army, and Wang Xun also gave him as much support as possible. The skeleton of a camel is more than

The horse is tall and has raised double peaks on its back, making it very suitable for crossbowmen to ride. Although the camel is not as fast as a war horse during a charge, it can encounter long-distance attacks. If you do not replenish eggs, black beans and other concentrated feed for three days, the war horse will

They will lose fat and even die from exhaustion. However, a camel can live a full life with a handful of grass and a bucket of water.

The only suggestion that was not adopted was the placement of the Mo Dao Shou. According to Zhao Huaixu's idea, although the Mo Dao Formation's attack power was unparalleled in the world, its requirements for soldiers were also extremely high. And without the cooperation of other arms, it would

It cannot fight alone, so it is better to abolish it completely. Anyway, in the future battlefields of the Western Regions, the troops of the Dawan Governor's Palace will definitely be with the Anxi Army. The Mo Dao Shou in the latter's team has already formed a large scale and can completely become the reliance of everyone.

.But Wang Xun shook his head and refused, not only because he liked the feeling of blood spurting when charging into battle with a knife, but also because of his personal calculations. He now regards his soldiers and horses as part of the Anxi Army.

, and tried to be different from the Anxi Army. So even a little sparrow tried its best to maintain all its internal organs.

Of course, this slightly willful idea could not be hidden from Zhao Huaixu's eyes. The latter just smiled and automatically ignored the matter. In his opinion, Wang Xun was not a very ambitious person anyway. Moreover, Feng Changqing

He has also hinted in private that he will look for one of several young people such as Wang Xun, Yu Wenzhi, Song Wu, etc. to take up the professorship.

Regardless of personal friendship and the overall situation, Zhao Huaixu privately believed that one of them refers to Wang Xun. Although Yu Wenzhi and Song Wu performed equally well, the former's temperament was too intolerant and his grievances were too clear.

If you encounter setbacks, you may take risks. The latter, on the other hand, are too naive and may find it difficult to cope with strife in the officialdom in the future.

Only Wang Xun, who is strong yet steady, and has a hint of cunning behind his frank face, is enough to shoulder the heavy responsibility of inheriting the fire of Anxi Army. This is one of the specific reasons why Zhao Huaixu took the initiative to ask Feng Changqing to assist Wang Xun.

. He hopes that he can give more help to the teenagers during their growth period so as to receive generous returns in the future. Feng Changqing also expressed his support for this.

Of course, these thoughts can still be known to Wang Xun now. Firstly, because Feng Changqing is now in the ascendant of the Holy Family, and he is cautious enough and low-key, it may not be a problem to control the Anxi Army for another seven or eight years. Secondly, given Wang Xun’s current qualifications and

His reputation was not enough to convince the veteran generals in the Anxi Army, and Feng Changqing's intention to pass the throne was exposed prematurely, which would do him a lot of harm but nothing good.

In line with the idea of ​​educating people for a century, Zhao Huaixu patiently tutored the young people. Wang Xun and others also maintained the same respect for him as they did in White Horse Castle. As time went by, everyone became more and more cooperative with each other.

The better the tacit understanding, the more skillful the soldiers under their command became, gradually showing the appearance of a strong army.

"I'm afraid just practicing on the school field won't work!" After autumn, Sha Qianli found Wang Xun and was the first to suggest that the brothers use real swords and guns. "It's a mule or a horse, you have to pull it out. Otherwise,

, On the surface, it looks lively, but when it comes to real things, no one can guarantee that no one will pee their pants!"

"Indeed!" Wang Xun smiled and nodded. He has been working as a local emperor in Zhezhe City all day long, and he has been feeling a little bored recently. "But who will sharpen the knife? Do you have a preliminary goal now?"

"This..." Sha Qianli scratched his head. Ever since Xueye defeated Ju Zhan, no one around him dared to stroke the Iron Hammer King's beard anymore. The princes are all honest, and it's really hard to find trouble casually.

deal with them.

"How about we just take down the iron gate. Once we take it down, the areas along the Yaochashui River can be integrated into one area. We no longer have to worry about the cannibals coming from the sandbank area every day!" Zhao Huaixu smiled.

Walk forward and point gently at the map.
