Zhao Yun, who was training cavalry in the Xuzhou Plain, naturally did not know that he, the supreme commander of the Xuzhou Defense Zone, was about to be transferred to Yanzhou. He is still training cavalry. He has fully mastered all the tactics of Baima Yicong. The only thing left is to move his army
Talent is integrated into Baima Yicong.
"Shoot!" Zhao Yun led the cavalry to crisscross and shuttle quickly, and the shadows connected together. Then with a sudden movement, all the cavalry took up their bows and fired arrows at the moment the horses jumped up.
"Bang, bang, bang!" All the arrow rain was concentrated in the big circle drawn by Zhao Yun, but Baima Yicong still kept shooting uninterrupted.
"Report, General, Su Shuang, and Zhang Shiping are asking for a meeting." Just when Zhao Yun was about to activate the legion's talents and continue training, a scout rushed over.
"Ming Ming, these people are under your command. I will leave in advance and you will lead them to conduct regular exercises." Zhao Yun said to Xue Shao, "By the way, you will lead them to practice your military formation."
"Here!" Xue Shao said with a bow.
It is said that Zhao Yun valued Xue Shao, a former centurion of the White Horse Yicon. After all, there are not many officers who can train the White Horse Yicon, and there are even fewer officers like Xue Shao who can train the Yicon.
Looking at his cavalry from a distance, Zhao Yun sighed. He did not have the pure white power of Gongsun Zan before. Although Zhao Yun was as confident as before in terms of combat ability, he was not as dazzling.
It is not easy to make good horses in the Central Plains. As for solid-colored horses, it is even more difficult. You must know that even big players like Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao will not make solid-colored cavalry. It is estimated that this kind of thing will be done in this world.
The only one with obsessive-compulsive disorder is Gongsun Zan.
[Alas, General Gongsun has gradually become alienated. I heard that he ignored us these few times when we went to deliver supplies.] Zhao Yun thought silently that since the series of failures of Longzuojie Bridge, it was taken away by Ju Yi.
After traveling to most of Youzhou, Gongsun Zan could only live his life guarding Youbeiping. His character became a lot weirder, and it was difficult to see the heroic and generous spirit before.
But what reassures Zhao Yun is that no matter how Gongsun Zan changes, his attitude towards the Hu people has not changed at all. He still hates the Hu people as before, is still fighting against the Hu people, and has still not transferred back to the north that Zhao Yun knew.
Youzhou cavalry and a considerable number of Youzhou infantry defending Xianbei and Wuwan.
You must know that Gongsun Zan relied on his tyrannical force to compete with Yuan Shao for the north. In addition to Baima Yi, he also had a large number of soldiers guarding the border!
Gongsun Zan is a complete racist, which is why he is absolutely unwilling to withdraw his soldiers guarding the border even if he has a chance to make a comeback. In his mind, he can be defeated or die, but the Han Dynasty must not fall into the hands of the barbarians.
, even if he is not loyal to the Han Dynasty, he is loyal to this nation, which is his eternal pride.
For this reason, without everyone knowing, Gongsun Zan recalled Tian Yu, who he didn't like very much, but was also capable and ethical, and decisively gave Tian Yu an order not to participate in any Central Plains wars for twenty years, only to
Fight against the barbarians in the north!
After Tian Yu accepted this task, Gongsun Zan handed over all the military power of the defense line north of Youzhou to Tian Yu. Thirteen thousand Youzhou cavalry and more than 30,000 border guards were handed over without everyone's knowledge.
These cavalry and infantry are scattered everywhere, and they are stationed in the fields when there is no war. However, as long as the barbarians from the north invade, they will take the initiative to attack under the leadership of the commander. This is the second line of defense deployed by Gongsun Zan when he was guarding the border.
As for the first path, it was naturally the already extinct White Horse Yi Cong.
After Tian Yu took over the military power, he swore under the eyes of Gongsun Zan to guard the northern border in place of Gongsun Zan for the next twenty years. Since then, Gongsun Zan's last obsession has been eliminated, and he no longer has any worries.
Although Gongsun Zan's likes and dislikes are obvious, he knows very well who should be used in what place. Although he doesn't like Tian Yu, if anyone can guard Youzhou for twenty years after his death, Tian Yu is probably the only one.
After all, Gongsun Zan is not ignorant of tactics. After Yuan Benchu wins, he wants to appease the Youzhou family, and Tian Yu, who he dislikes and is capable, will definitely be selected!
Gongsun Zan believed that his vision was not wrong. In fact, in the previous generation, Tian Yu had indeed been stationed in Youzhou for decades as Gongsun Zan estimated, and did not participate in any civil wars in the Central Plains. During Yuan Shao's period, he stationed in northern Xinjiang, and during Cao Cao's period, he stationed in northern Xinjiang.
Xinjiang was still like this during the Cao Pi period. He had been fighting against the barbarians for decades, and he left northern Xinjiang only a few times until his death.
Maybe he didn't dislike the Hu people as much as Gongsun Zan, but Tian Yu kept doing what Gongsun Zan once did, defeating Xianbei, fighting Wuwan, pacifying the Xiongnu, and ensuring the peace of Youzhou and the other states. He was definitely the first person in northern Xinjiang.
Zhao Yun naturally didn't know these things, but he believed that Gongsun Bogui would definitely guard his pride!
"General Zhao." As soon as Zhao Yun stepped out of the military camp, he saw Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping rushing over.
"Long time no see, you two." Zhao Yun cupped his fists and saluted. No matter what the identity of the other party was, since they were serving Liu Bei, Zhao Yun would not be rude.
"General Zhao, we sailed back to Mount Tai from Shu County and passed by land here, so we came to see General Zhao. By the way, we bought some military horses in Xiliang and sent them to General Zhao." Zhang Shiping said tiredly. This time
The business started with buying horses from Liangzhou, and then transferred water transportation from Shu, passing through Jingzhou, Yuzhou, and now it can be regarded as Xuzhou.
"Thank you both very much. What is the price of the horses now?" Zhao Yun said with a grateful face. Now Jizhou and Bingzhou have restricted the transportation of horses, and Gongsun Zan's horses are not enough for his own use, and the horses sent by Gongsun Du are not good.
Things can only be transported by relying on the connections of the Zhen family, the Mi family, and the two horse dealers Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang.
"The price of Liangzhou horses has reached 60,000 yuan, but fortunately we exchanged it for wine, and the discounted price to us is only 20,000 yuan. The cost is not big, mainly because of the transportation trouble." Zhang Shiping said helplessly, Liangzhou is not
There is a shortage of horses. The problem is that you have to be able to buy them. I almost had an accident this time when I went to buy horses. After all, I am not familiar with a place like Liangzhou. It is not the northern grassland that Zhang Shiping is familiar with. But fortunately, I succeeded. I want to come here and be familiar with it again.
, it would be nice to go a few more times.
"I did some small business with the Nanman people and exchanged a lot of rare treasures. General Zhao, would you like to see them?" Su Shuang said with a smile. He and Zhang Shiping were separated in Shu. They both went there.
Exploring new business avenues.
Before Zhao Yun could refuse, Su Shuang had already ordered someone to bring up a giant elephant and a male lion. Zhao Yun was shocked to see that the two animals actually had a strong inner energy, and both looked extremely fierce. This was simply incredible!
"General Zhao, don't be surprised. There is another thing, but no one has tamed it yet, so I invite General Zhao to come over and have a look!" Su Shuang smiled proudly.
