Let you rebel, you build the Immortal Kingdom of Longevity?

Chapter 23 Horse hunting in the wilderness, rumors of monsters

Bone Forging Realm is a step-by-step training process, and the training process is also very difficult.

There are many bones in the human body. If you break through by yourself, it will be difficult to completely temper all the bones with your inner breath.

Xia Hao's improvement of Qi luck is equivalent to directly omitting the most difficult and dangerous step, and only needs to practice step by step.

"According to this progress, it will be a surprise to be able to temper the bones to perfection in less than a month."

Feeling the increase in body strength, Xia Hao felt that learning medical skills was still very necessary.

Condensing luck is hard-won. Trying to rely on strength expansion to improve your cultivation is not a long-term solution after all.

Just like now, his strength has reached the sixth-rank martial artist, and he has nearly 3000 soldiers under his command, occupying two counties.

But either they are all new troops, or they are surrendered troops. Even though he has tried his best to integrate the army, improve morale, and gather the morale of the army, he is still a little stretched if he wants to attack again.

In particular, he had already heard the news that among the officers and soldiers entrenched in Haomen County, there were also sixth-grade warriors.

In addition, there are [-] iron cavalry, well-equipped. If the army attacks other counties, the infantry will march slowly because of the long distance.

If the two armies meet in the wild, they are likely to be defeated.

Therefore, Xia Hao could only stop expansion for the time being, train and improve the army, and at the same time send spies to find some horses from the wasteland to form his own cavalry regiment.

In addition, there is another possibility that he can solve the official army in one fell swoop and occupy Jincheng County and even the surrounding counties.

That is, he broke through to the fifth-rank "Marrow Cleansing Realm".

A fifth-rank martial artist can form a crushing situation against a sixth-rank martial artist, with one against ten thousand, no more.

If he sneaks into Haomen County, kills the sixth-rank warriors of the official army, and then persuades tens of thousands of official soldiers to surrender, then the situation will be accomplished, and it is very possible to occupy the land of Liangzhou in the future.

While practicing, Si Jinglei walked in and said in surprise:

"General, I just sent a report on the horses. I found traces of horses on the wasteland outside the city. It is said that there are more than 200 horses in this group of horses. They are as red as blood. They may be "red-maned horses" with demons in their bodies. The blood of the beast "Red Flame Spirit Horse".

If we get these more than 200 good horses, we can form our own cavalry and be able to compete with the official army. "

Xia Hao's expression was also full of surprises. Without cavalry, there were many constraints, which restricted his development.

"Whether the news is true or not, bring the horse-hunting envoy over here, and I will inquire in person."

"General, he's already outside, I'll call him in right now." Si Jinglei said respectfully.

Soon, there was a thin young man who bowed respectfully: "Hu Liedu, meet the general!"

Judging from his accent, Xia Hao didn't look like a Jin person, but rather a mixed-race child left by hundreds of grassland tribes.

However, in the border area, people are mixed, which is very common.

"You will encounter wild horses, tell me in detail."

The thin young man replied: "Under the general's order, we left the fortress from Heifengao Pass and searched for horses on the grassland. After seven days, we found the horses in a canyon oasis three hundred miles away from Lingju City... "

Xia Hao nodded and secretly used "Destiny Manifestation" to check the other party's information.

"Hu Liedu, 22 years old, from the Huangmeng tribe, has a gentle personality, is good at riding and shooting, and looks after horses..."

The feedback made Xia Hao believe it a little more.

It was about more than 200 high-quality war horses, Xia Hao gave orders, took Si Jinglei and other [-] riders, and left Lingju City at high speed, heading for the grassland outside the Great Wall.

After exiting Heifeng Pass, even if you have left the jurisdiction of Jincheng County, you have entered the grassland.

Xia Hao is no stranger to the grasslands, the original body came with Xia Wuwei many years ago.

At this moment, the grassland has dried up and died due to the continuous drought and the delicious pasture.

The horseshoes stepped over, rolled up the sky full of yellow sand, and billowed wolf smoke.

Looking at the barren grassland, where there are streams and streams, you can vaguely see the beautiful scenery of this place before the severe drought.

"Jinglei, in the future, we can build a horse ranch here to prepare for the formation of iron cavalry."

Si Jinglei also agrees quite a bit. The grassland here is thousands of miles around, with lush water and grass, and it is a natural horse grazing land.

"General, about 400 years ago, this place was one of the top ten horse ranches in the Jin Dynasty. It could provide the Jin Dynasty with [-] fine war horses every year. Unfortunately, I later heard that it was attacked by monsters from the Northern Plains, and tens of thousands of soldiers were killed by the monsters. The mouth of the beast. In addition, the country's strength is getting weaker and weaker, and it is slowly becoming desolate."

"Monster beasts are the overlords of wild beasts. They are powerful, nimble, and intelligent. They are a serious threat to human beings." Xia Hao sighed.

Regarding monsters, he consulted local chronicles and other ancient books, and it was recorded many times that Lingju and other counties were often attacked by Beiyuan monsters. Every time, it was a hell on earth, and tens of thousands of people were killed by monsters.

Later, hundreds of years ago, Yi Jing dispatched many high-grade warriors and used many treasures to fight a great battle with the monsters of the Northern Plains, and the intrusion of monsters was much less.

Galloping all the way for more than 400 miles, I finally came to a canyon.

There are high mountains on both sides of the canyon, and a mirror-green lake in the middle. Around the lake are hundreds of reddish-brown wild horses, carefully drinking water.

Hu Lie was breathless and excitedly said: "General, here we are, this is the place. This group of wild horses have been staying here for many days, and they haven't dispersed yet."

Si Jinglei looked at the surrounding environment, especially the deep blue lake with a diameter of dozens of miles in the center of the canyon oasis. He was also overjoyed and excitedly introduced:
"General, there are not only horses here, but also lakes. This is a heaven-sent place, which can solve our water source problem."

The continuous drought in the six northern states has made water and food the most precious materials.

In Lingju and Yuzhong, although the reservoirs were dug many years ago, they can barely supply the city for drinking. As for washing, washing, etc., there is no supply.

The continuous severe drought does not know when it will stop, and every drop of water is precious.

"Let's go, let's go and have a look around the group of horses." Xia Hao rode his horse and galloped towards the canyon.

The thirty riders who followed had special tools for catching horses, such as lassoes and long nets.

Xia Hao led thirty rebel cavalry, and as soon as he entered the canyon, he felt a gust of cool wind pass through his body, making people shiver.

Si Jinglei was well-informed and frowned: "General, there is something wrong with the atmosphere here, there is a demonic aura!"

Xia Hao reined in his horse and stopped, and asked curiously: "Is there a monster? You mean there are monsters here?"

Si Jinglei nodded solemnly, and explained: "General, I have a very keen sense of smell, and I can never forget all kinds of smells. When I was in Yijing, I followed my father and saw some monsters, and I can remember the smell of monsters. Monsters are so strong, swords are hard to hurt..."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Xia Hao with a solemn expression: "General, this is also my guess, and I ask the general to make a decision."

Xia Hao's mind was full of thoughts, hundreds of excellent war horses were right in front of him, within easy reach.

It would be a bit unwilling to give up just like that.

After thinking for a while, Xia Hao stared at Si Jinglei again, and asked: "Jinglei, you have seen a lot, what kind of strength do the monsters you see generally correspond to?"
