Reborn Wu Dalang

Chapter 116 Liangshan Cavalry

The matter of the alliance of the Three Kingdoms was in full swing in the Song Dynasty, and many frontier ministers already knew about it.

Tong Guan and Zhong Shidao are far away in the northwest, but the emperor has notified them of the specific content of the Bianliang Covenant, and now they are discussing this matter.

"This is a great thing! This envoy from Goryeo is not simple, but he was able to come up with such a plan! We will first destroy the Liao Dynasty by the Three Kingdoms, and then the Jin Dynasty by the two countries. Ah! Now, our Da Song is expected to win the world." Tong Guan said excitedly.

"There is something wrong with this matter. Goryeo is just a small country with limited national strength. We may not be able to destroy the Jin Kingdom in the end if we join forces with Goryeo." Zhong Shidao said with a frown.

Goryeo has a population of only 500 million, and there are not many soldiers, and it used to be the Shu Kingdom of the Liao Kingdom, so its military strength is obviously not very strong.Zhong Shidao didn't trust this "ally" at all.

"My lord, you are really worrying too much! After Goryeo broke off diplomatic relations with the Liao people, they recruited more than 30 new soldiers and horses. Adding the original soldiers and horses, there are already more than [-] soldiers." Tong Guan said.

"What's the use of having more soldiers? Liao's millions of soldiers are hard to resist the Jin people now, and the Jin people are said to have only tens of thousands of troops. The Jin people are too fierce, like a hungry wolf. Our three families will jointly destroy the Liao people." China is possible, but it is basically impossible for us to unite with Goryeo to destroy the Jin people. I think the best strategy is that we unite with the Liao people and Goryeo to destroy the Jin people, and then we unite with Goryeo to destroy the Jin people. Liao people." Zhong said.

"Uh...Master Chong, the Liao Kingdom is our feud, how can we unite with the Liao people?" Tong Guan said.

"For the future of the Song Dynasty, it is not a bad idea to unite with the Liao people." Zhong Shi said.

"Your Majesty Zhong really thinks too much about the Jinren. The Jinren are just barbarians. We will join forces with Goryeo and we will definitely destroy the Jinren. Besides, His Majesty has personally decided on this matter. The Taishi and Taiwei have already affirmed this plan, we just follow it." Tong Guan pouted and said.

He felt that this kind of teacher's way was too unfounded to worry about, and even regarded the Jin people so important, thinking that the Jin people were the future enemies of the Song people.Tong Guan disagrees with this point of view.

"Hey!" Zhong Shidao sighed deeply.

However, no matter what, he felt that the current strategy was better than Ma Zhi's original strategy of "joining the Jin and destroying the Liao".Although Goryeo's national strength is not good, but with Goryeo restraining the Jin people in the north, it is impossible for the Jin people to attack the Song Dynasty unscrupulously in the future.

"My lord, you and I can show our talents in the future! The soldiers and horses of the Northwest are under your control, and we will definitely be used when we conquer Liao. Then it will be the time for us to make great achievements... In the future, we will become kings You don't know about being a Marquis." Tong Guan felt a little excited in his heart.

He has controlled the military power in the Northwest for more than ten years, and now his biggest wish is to become king.But becoming a king requires military exploits. Without military exploits, even if Song Huizong favored him, it would be impossible to make him king.And the joint battle of the three families to destroy Liao made him see that the military achievements were in front of him, so he was a little ready to move.

Historically, after Tong Guanshi pacified Fang La, he was crowned king by Song Huizong.Now Fang La has not yet rebelled, so he is still only the Northwest Supervisory Army. He doesn't know that the opportunity to become king is already beckoning to him.

Zhong Shidao ignored Tong Guan's words, but said: "I heard that His Majesty wants to strengthen Goryeo's national strength and is going to provide Goryeo with a lot of armor and weapons. .”

Tong Guanzheng was imagining the matter of becoming a king, but Zhong Shidao said it again, which made him a little upset, so he just said lightly: "Oh."

Master Zhong said: "I would like to suggest to His Majesty that we must strengthen our assistance to Goryeo, so that Goryeo will become a sharp edge for our Great Song Dynasty in the north... The state affairs are difficult!"

Zhong Shidao is now worried, and feels that the threats facing the Great Song Dynasty are too many, and he must not go wrong, otherwise it will be an abyss.In addition to the worries about foreigners, there are also things about Liang Shanbo that bother him.

In the first month of the lunar year, he sent Han Shizhong to rob and kill Wu Dong, the leader of the thief in Liangshanbo, but instead of killing Wu Dong, he lost news of Han Shizhong.

The 1000 soldiers and horses led by Han Shizhong, except for a few in other counties, all the soldiers and horses in Yanggu County disappeared on the same day, and no one knew where they went.But Zhong Shidao estimated that Han Shizhong should have been captured by Liang Shanpo's people, and he may have died.

For this matter, Zhong Shidao felt very sorry.Don't look at Han Shizhong as just a small side general, but Zhong Shidao attaches great importance to it and is ready to train vigorously. In the future, Han Shizhong is likely to become a pillar of the country.

"Hey, Han Shizhong, why did he fall into Yanggu County? Forget it, forget it, I'll give it to His Majesty first, so that His Majesty can strengthen his assistance to Goryeo." Zhong Shidao shook his head and left Tong Guan's barracks, and began to think about things .

******

Han Shizhong is currently in the barracks outside Incheon City. This barracks area is very large. In addition to the sound of soldiers training, there are also constant neighing sounds from here.

There are a lot of horses here, these horses are relatively short, compared with Khitan horses and Xixia horses, their bones are smaller, but they are somewhat similar to Mongolian horses in the north.

These horses are all native horses in Goryeo, which Liangshan bought from the Goryeo people in the past two years.

Goryeo is actually a good place to raise horses, especially Jeju Island.After the Mongols of later generations won the world and occupied Jeju Island, they also regarded it as a good place for raising horses.

Now Liangshan also trains horses in Jeju Island, but more horses are outside Incheon City.

Han Shizhong is training the cavalry here, while Wu Dong is watching from the hillside.

After a while, Han Shizhong came to Wu Dong's side and paid his respects to Wu Dong.

Wu Dong said: "General Han, are you satisfied with the Koryoma?"

Han Shizhong said: "It's okay, it's just a little short, but it's pretty good for carrying weight."

Wu Dong nodded and said: "This is the advantage of the Korean horses. I hope you can make good use of these horses and train these cavalry well."

Han Shizhong followed Huarong at first, but after only ten days, Huarong recognized Han Shizhong's talent.When he was in the northwest, Han Shizhong trained cavalry, so Huarong handed over the heavy responsibility of cavalry training to Han Shizhong.

Han Shizhong said: "Governor, we have a small number of horses, so we can only train 2000 cavalry at most. Such a small number of cavalry may not be of much use."

Wu Dong thought for a while, and said, "2000 cavalry is actually not a small number. General Han, do you know that Jurchen's Wanyan Aguda only relied on 2500 cavalry to defeat tens of thousands of Khitans? With only 3700 cavalry, Wanyan Aguda defeated the 2000 Liao army. So as long as it is used well, [-] cavalry can also play a huge role."

Wu Dong said this just to cheer up Han Shizhong. A character like Wanyan Aguda is only comparable to the current Han Shizhong.

Wanyan Aguda was from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms to the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the number one military powerhouse in East Asia for more than 200 years, not to mention the current Han Shizhong, even the founding kings like Zhao Kuangyin and Chai Rong are far behind him. Only after the birth of Genghis Khan in later generations can he surpass him.And this is because Wanyan Aguda died early. If Wanyan Aguda hadn't died early, his later military achievements might even surpass Genghis Khan.

However, Han Shizhong was greatly encouraged when he heard this, and said: "What the governor said is that I must let them play the greatest role in my hands for the 2000 cavalry."

Wu Dong nodded, and said: "Shizhong, the key to cavalry charge is the word brave. Over the past dynasties, those powerful foreign tribes have not had many soldiers, but the key to often defeating the powerful Central Plains lies in a brave man." Words. Their living conditions are difficult, so they have to work hard, I hope you can also bring the word brave to our cavalry, so that our cavalry will not be afraid of anything and can compare with those foreigners."

Han Shizhong nodded and said, "Don't worry, the governor... I will definitely use the cruelest methods to train the cavalry, so that they will learn to be brave and desperate."

The two were talking about the cavalry when suddenly Hua Rong came in a hurry.

As soon as Hua Rong arrived, he interrupted the conversation between Wu Dong and Han Shizhong, saying: "Great Governor, I have something very important to report to you."

Wu Dong asked strangely: "What is it?"

Hua Rong said: "Governor, this is information from the Intelligence Department. Come and take a look. It is very important."

Hua Rong kept saying "important", and Wu Dong didn't dare to neglect, he hurriedly took over the information and read it carefully.

At the end, he had an unbelievable expression on his face, and said, "Is this true?"

Hua Rong said: "It's true! There will be no mistakes! Now Wu Yong, the 'Korean envoy', has already gained a great reputation in Bianliang City. Everyone in Bianliang City knows it. Soon, Wu Yong will bring the envoys of the Song Dynasty to Korea."

Wu Dong couldn't help laughing, and he said after a long time: "Wu Yong actually did such a thing, which really surprised me! This time, he has made great contributions to Liang Shan!"

Hua Rong also said with surprise on his face: "Yes, this Wu Yong, I always looked down on him before, this time he also surprised me."

To be honest, although Wu Yong is Liangshan's military adviser and a member of the Military Aircraft Department, he has hardly played any important role.But this time, if this matter can be done, it can be regarded as Liangshan's number one hero.

Wu Dong thought for a while, and said: "Let's go back immediately and discuss the reception of the envoys of the Great Song Dynasty. I will immediately rearrange the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and also make jade seals and a large number of Goryeo official uniforms... What's wrong with that?" Everyone should point out that we must convince the envoys of the Song Dynasty that we are the government of Korea. We must also come up with a reason why we received them in Incheon City instead of Kaijing.”

If this matter is done, it will be able to get a steady stream of benefits from the Song court. At present, Wu Dong and Hua Rong left in a hurry, while Han Shizhong was still training the cavalry.

Han Shizhong has now liked the atmosphere of Liangshan's barracks. This is different from the barracks of the Song Dynasty. The soldiers here are trained very hard and the discipline is extremely strict.In Han Shizhong's view, the soldiers here have almost no defects.

Now he continued to train these cavalry, thinking that these cavalry must be trained to the level of the Jurchens.
