Chapter 357 History of Commanding the Army and Horse Division
——Daying in the Suburbs of Beijing

In the barracks, the soldiers were training in full swing, with awe-inspiring momentum.

Commander Shi Liu, who is in charge of soldiers and horses, is nodding and bowing to entertain the two who came suddenly.

"General Lin, General Qin, all the soldiers and horses are already here!"

A few people arrived outside the stables, followed by the group of people behind them. The soldiers practicing on the school field stretched their necks and looked at this side. After being reprimanded, they obediently retracted their heads, humming and continuing to train.

"Where are those sick horses?" Lin Yinyi frowned slightly, the smell outside the stable was indeed unpleasant.

"Returning to the general, there are a total of eight sick army horses, three of which died, and the remaining five are isolated in the abandoned stables outside the camp. They have been treated by horse doctors, but the situation is not optimistic."

Master Liu opened his mouth quickly, frowning.

Qin Yi took a step forward, covered his mouth and nose slightly, looked over with sharp eyes, and said in a steady voice, "How can the environment in the stables ensure that the remaining horses will not be infected? Master Liu, as the commander-in-chief of the military department Is this how Shi looks after the army horses?"

Qin Yi had a cold face and showed no mercy at all. The money allocated to the Ministry of War by the imperial court has never been stingy, but the environment of the stables is really bad.

Mr. Liu was annoyed, but he also knew that one of these two was a great general in court, and the other was an upstart in front of the emperor. Neither of them could be offended, so he could only carefully say with a smile on his face, "The general doesn't know something, this horse is Eat a lot." At this point, Master Liu paused, and said with some embarrassment, "Naturally, there are special people to take care of these military horses on weekdays."

Qin Yi turned around, looked at him with a half-smile, and said calmly, "Master Liu thinks that this general doesn't understand military horses?"

Mr. Liu's heart skipped a beat when he saw it. That's right, Qin Yi is not some embroidered pillow with flamboyant fists and embroidered legs. He is an invincible general on the battlefield. The military horse knows no less than himself.

"I don't dare to be an official." Master Liu lowered his head and wiped the sweat from his forehead. The oppressive feeling made him breathless. He had pocketed a little military salary, but the military horse was a big deal, and he never dared to slack off. The horse plague was coming violently, and in order to find out what the source was, he thought it was just the horses getting sick, but when horses got sick one after another, he realized something was wrong and hurriedly reported it.

"Forget it, now is not the time to pursue responsibility, Mr. Liu should think about how to save and keep your head."

Lin Yinyi glanced at him indifferently, and spoke lightly.

"Yes." Master Liu quickly agreed, "If you say that the horse plague is not a big deal, Bing Masi has always had medicine to deal with horse plague, and it only needs a little improvement, but the damaged horses always add up. There are not many, the horse market is empty, and I am afraid that there is no way to complete it all at once."

Lord Liu said cautiously, if it wasn't the time of the horse plague, the emperor asked for a thorough investigation of the horses, I am afraid that the horses of the Bing Ma Si would still be unknown.

Qin Yi's cold eyes fell on him, and he was even more angry. The importance of military horses in combat is no different from that of weapons, but he is so hasty. It seems that the cleaning of the court is still not thorough enough.

Lin Yinyi also frowned tightly, and looked at Master Liu disapprovingly, but as he said, now is not the time to pursue responsibility.

"Is there any other place to trade war horses besides the horse market? As long as the quality is good, it doesn't matter if the price is higher." Lin Yin said affirmatively.

"It's not uncommon. In addition to Huainan, which is rich in horses that are directly supplied to the imperial court, there are also some places that raise horses in the Jianghuai area." Master Liu thought for a while and said.

"No, the horses in Jianghuai are mostly used for driving or other purposes, not enough horses for war preparation." Qin Yi shook his head, Gu Jingcheng is watching, and there is a possibility of attacking at any time, so there must be enough soldiers and horses.

"Then if there are no horses in the capital, can we buy horses from neighboring countries?" Master Liu thought about it and asked softly.

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell into silence, Qin Yi frowned fiercely, and couldn't help feeling irritated, how did this soldier and horse commander history become, even though Xianbei is a nomadic people, soldiers and horses will never trade, It's about a country's defense strength.

"Then" this doesn't work, that doesn't work either, Mr. Liu felt ashamed all of a sudden, he really had no choice, the number of damaged horses was enough for him to punish the Nine Clans.

"I beg the two generals, save the officer!" Without any hesitation, Master Liu immediately leaned down and begged for help in a low voice.

Lin Yin frowned and looked at him, "What is Master Liu doing, let's think about how to make up for the loss, otherwise His Majesty will blame you, and ten heads are not enough for you!"

Mr. Liu wiped his sweat, followed behind the two with downcast eyebrows, complaining in his heart, his black gauze cap must be lost now, thank God he could save his life.

Qin Yi and others immediately called the horse doctor to inquire about the situation, but it was almost the same as Master Liu said. Lin Yin was cautious and sent someone to find a trustworthy horse doctor to check.

The sun was strong at noon, and the matter of the horses was clearly investigated. Master Liu looked at the two of them with a smile on his face, "You two generals, it's lunch time, why don't you let the lower officials take charge, how about Zuixianlou?" ?”

Qin Yi chuckled, wearing black clothes, he looked more and more straight and indifferent, and said lightly, "Zuixian Tower? A meal is worth a thousand dollars, it seems that Lord Liu's salary is quite a lot."

Master Liu's smile froze slightly, and he cursed inwardly. He wanted to flatter, but he didn't expect to hit the horse's hooves. Everyone knows that soldiers and horses have the most lucrative oil and water. This is everyone's tacit secret, but it is open What lies ahead is another story.

"The general is joking. Although the lower officials are not as rich as the two generals, they can still afford a mere meal. I wonder if the general will show respect?"

The so-called slap, and then put the other half of the face closer, that's exactly what he said, Master Liu looked at the two with a smile, and spoke in a good-tempered manner.

Qin Yi stood with his hands behind his back, and said calmly, "This general has something to do, so I will not accompany you."

The smile on Master Liu's face froze slightly, looking at his relentless back, he felt pain on his face, and turned to look at Lin Yinyi.

"Master Liu, if you have time, why not think about how to solve the military and horse affairs." Lin Yin raised his eyebrows slightly, and also turned away with his guards, leaving him with a self-contained look.

Lord Liu clenched his fist slightly, but he didn't dare to do anything.

"My lord." The subordinate stepped forward, looked at him in a daze, looked at him with some worry, and called softly.

"Go, find suitable horses for me, no matter how much money, buy them all!"
