"What's wrong?"

Diao Chan didn't know what happened, but she recognized the messenger talisman. Liu Xuan would not shy away from them every time he used it, and even prepared a few pieces for them separately, so that they could easily find him if anything happened.

At this time, it was obvious that some military information had been reported to Liu Xuan. Although Diao Chan did not know much about military affairs, she often stayed with Cai Yan, so she still knew some common sense.

For example, Cao Cao has now returned to Chang'an. After the imperial court wiped out the Yellow Turban Army and recovered the four states, it did not continue to launch new attacks on the surrounding areas. Instead, it stabilized and developed slowly, hoping to restore the people's livelihood in Yuzhou first.

The only soldiers and horses used were the Yulin Cavalry who had left Beijing a while ago.

It was even said to many ministers in the court that the Yulin Cavalry was training in the open fields in the north, but some people close to Liu Xuan knew that the Yulin Cavalry was heading to Bingzhou to meet Liu Bei.

In addition, jade talismans were passed back and forth from time to time during this period, so Diao Chan thought it was something wrong with Liu Bei.

"Could it be that the emperor's uncle encountered something unexpected?"

"No!" Liu Xuan helped Diao Chan tidy up her hair, and then put away the jade talisman: "Uncle Huang has crossed the Yellow River, and now he is waiting for Zhang Liao and others to come back, and then we can return to Chang'an together."

In other words, Liu Bei, Gongsun Zan and others are already safe. If they encounter any danger within the court's sphere of influence, the problem will be huge, not just a matter of a few lives.

However, this possibility is so low that you almost don’t need to worry about it.

However, the news Zhang Liao came back made Liu Xuan a little confused: "Originally, I was thinking of taking all the four pillars of Hebei into account, but I didn't expect to send Yu Linqi to Bingzhou for a tour, and I could also take Yan Liangwen Chou on the way.

Kill them...are you saying that these two guys are unlucky, or are you saying that the Yulin Cavalry is too strong?"

Zhang Liao's report introduced the process of these two battles in detail, made a comprehensive assessment of the Yulin Cavalry's performance and combat power, and also pointed out some shortcomings, the focus of which was the Yulin Cavalry's rations.

A single rider can never carry a large amount of rations. Even if each person prepares an extra horse, they cannot carry much. The Yulin Cavalry is originally the most suitable unit for deep combat alone, but the rations greatly limit this.

For this problem, as of now... there is no solution.

In fact, as long as these soldiers continue to practice and reach a certain level, their need for food will gradually decrease. Of course, eating normally will not have any bad side effects. //《》.com《》Novel Network//

At the same time, if you don’t eat, you will just feel empty in your stomach, and your hunger will gradually lessen. Just like Liu Xuan now, he can eat if he wants to eat, and if he doesn’t want to eat, he will not eat. Whether he eats or not will not have any impact on him.

.

Nowadays, he eats more to satisfy his own desires, and also because there is really no entertainment in this era, so making some delicious food to eat can be regarded as a hobby and pastime.

Therefore, as long as Yu Linqi continues to practice, the food problem will be solved sooner or later.

It's just that it's difficult to deal with now. Although the soldiers have become stronger, they are still not out of the human category. They can persist for a while without eating, but their combat effectiveness will undoubtedly drop a lot during this time. In that case, they will

There is no doubt about going behind enemy lines.

Apart from this point, Zhang Liao has no dissatisfaction with the Yulin Cavalry. He even believes that even in its current state, the combat effectiveness of the Yulin Cavalry without armor is definitely the best in the world.

Maybe only a few other armies under Liu Xuan's account can compete with the Yulin Cavalry, but they can only compete. If you want to tell the difference, you have to fight with real swords and guns to know.

But they are all elite soldiers under Liu Xuan's account. Could Liu Xuan let them fight each other? It is absolutely impossible, so there is basically no answer to this question.

After putting away the jade talisman, Liu Xuan continued to wander around with Diao Chan and Cai Yan. Over there, Zhang Liao had already led Yu Linqi towards the Yellow River, and arrived at the pre-selected ferry a few days later, and successfully

Crossed the Yellow River.

Because all the soldiers and horses in Bingzhou were severely damaged by the Yu Lin cavalry, there were no soldiers and horses blocking the road at all. Zhang Liao and others even felt that the return journey was a bit boring.

"It's a pity that no one from Hebei jumped out to stop us so that we could have another fight!"

Ma Chao was young and energetic. He had only fought one battle before and did not feel satisfied at all. However, Taishi Ci did not care. He gained a lot from this trip because he had a more intuitive experience of Yu Linqi's strength and fighting methods. At the same time, he also

After practicing, I have a more intuitive impression of the impact of personal force on the battle situation.

"There is no one in Hebei who can really fight with us. What's the point of such a battle?"

Compared with Ma Chao's idea of ​​​​fighting and then fighting regardless of whether the enemy is strong or weak, Taishi Ci would rather encounter a strong enemy, but he felt that this possibility seemed very low.

At least as far as he knew, the only person who had been considered a powerful enemy by the generals of the imperial court for so long was the Yellow Turban thief Dao Nanhua.

He didn't know how many immortals there were in this world, but Taishi Ci didn't think that all these immortals would jump out to oppose the imperial court.

After talking and walking along the way, Zhang Liao and others finally met up with Liu Bei, exchanged greetings, and also got to know Gongsun Zan.

As soon as Gongsun Zan saw Zhang Liao and others, his eyes lit up.

Zhang Liao and others did not wear armor, and the clothes they wore were even very tattered. They looked similar to some bandits, but if you look closely, you can see that these people are extraordinary.

As for the cavalry at the back, although their clothes were in tatters, their military appearance was neat. Five thousand people and horses were parked there in formation, and neither the people nor the horses made any noise. They all sat straight on their horses with their backs straightened.

"He is truly the best in the world!"

Gongsun Zan was an expert in cavalry, and his white-horse Yi Cong were known as the best cavalry in the world. Even the Bingzhou cavalry was inferior to him in reputation, which shows Gongsun's accomplishments in cavalry.

Therefore, he could tell the quality of the cavalry at a glance. From Gongsun Zan's point of view, the strength of the troops in front of him was not only superior to his own White Horse Yi Cong, but even to the entire world, including those foreigners from the north who were good at riding.

, and cannot be compared with the soldiers and horses in front of me.

“It’s just a pity that the image is a little worse!”

This sentence was blurted out by Gongsun Zan without much thought. Zhang Liao and others happened to be in front of them, so everyone heard it clearly and were speechless for a while.

Gongsun Zan was a master of equestrian skills and an expert in cavalry warfare. But in addition, Gongsun Zan also had a personal hobby, that is, he liked white horses, and he used all means to make all his most elite cavalry ride white horses.

It is not easy to find a white horse, not to mention that the white horse required by Gongsun Zan must be white without any stray hairs, which would be even more difficult.

And on this basis, it must be a war horse that meets the needs of combat. Because of this, the number of soldiers in Gongsun Zan's elite cavalry has never been large - not because there are no excellent riders, but because there are not so many white horses.

At its peak, Baima Yicong had an establishment of more than 3,000 people and could not even form an army. This shows Gongsun Zan's dedication to Baima.

Liu Bei knew this classmate's hobbies very well, but he didn't know how to respond when he heard this. He could only say: "Because I want to hide my identity this time, I am not wearing armor!"

In fact, Liu Bei suddenly remembered that today's emperor seems to be quite concerned about the image of his army. Not only is he extremely concerned about the armor of the four elite troops that have been formed, he even uses the most mysterious department of the imperial court: weapon refining.

Si Lai solved the problem of the armor being too heavy so that the Yulin Cavalry could not only maintain its combat power but also look good.

At the same time, an ordinary soldier in the Forbidden Army will also receive a military uniform issued by the court. Compared with some princes who just randomly give out a coat for the soldiers to put on so that they can distinguish themselves as their own soldiers. This behavior of the court is simply a "waste".

Even according to the emperor's order, even the soldiers of the prefecture and state will receive the same treatment. This order almost made the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government collectively oppose it.

For no other reason than it is a waste of money!

At that time, the imperial court had just stabilized. Although Chang'an had continuous bumper harvests, everything in the imperial court was in a state of flux. There were many problems to be solved, and accordingly there were many places where money, food and cloth were wasted. If a large amount of materials were wasted on these

Things that are just a window dressing will undoubtedly affect many important things.

However, Liu Xuan ignored him at all and directly asked the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs to handle the matter. Therefore, the soldiers of the Forbidden Army are now very neatly dressed. If they were pulled out, everyone would think that they were the elites of the imperial court - who would have thought

Are these just ordinary soldiers and horses of the imperial court? The real elites include Yu Lin, Hu Ben and other four armies.

Although the Tiger Guard has just formed an army, it has His Majesty's support and has the foundation to become an army. The problem of soldier resources is not difficult to solve - when Yu Lin and other armies selected soldiers, they gave priority to those who knew how to ride.

Only then will they be selected from those soldiers who have made faster progress in training.

Therefore, some soldiers who also started practicing but did not know how to ride were rejected and remained in the Forbidden Army. This time, the Huben Army recruited infantrymen, and these people were naturally selected. Therefore, the Huben Army formed an army very quickly, and it would not take long.

It's time to fight.

They chatted some more together. Zhang Liao noticed that a young general in silver armor was standing quietly behind Gongsun Zan without saying a word. Out of curiosity, he couldn't help but ask.

"This is...?"

"My surname is Zhao, my name is Yun, and my courtesy name is Zilong. I am from Changshan Zhending!"

The silver-armored general was none other than Zhao Yun. As soon as he spoke his name, Zhang Liao immediately looked at him a few more times. The reason was for no other reason than that Zhang Liao also knew that His Majesty had asked his uncle to go to Youzhou. In addition to rescuing Gongsun Zan, he also asked his uncle to go to Youzhou.

Bring this Zhao Yun out.

"But I didn't know how capable this person is that he is so valued by His Majesty!"
