Dawn of the Empire

Chapter 372 Sand Dust Dark Cloud Sea (5)

"How did this happen?" Li Ruoxue frowned slightly, and said softly, "There are not many things at home, I can take care of it myself, and I don't need a maid." There are not many servants in Bianliang Li's Mansion, and she went out with Zhao Xingde After Xia Guo, except for the aunt who helped, no more servants were hired.

"I don't need it now, but I will need it in the future. The captain of the Dragon Tooth Army is a general. If someone comes to visit, if my sister serves tea in person, no one will dare to take it." Han Ningshuang said, holding her green sleeve with her left hand , poured two cups of clear tea with his right hand, brought one cup to the opposite side, brought the other cup to his lips and took a sip, looking at Li Ruoxue.

Seeing Li Ruoxue's surprised look, Han Ningshuang smiled and said, "Although General Zhao is tight-lipped, if he is really transferred to the Jiaorong Army as a lieutenant, he will be considered meritorious and not rewarded. The General's Mansion will definitely not be so negligent. Besides, I have some eyes and ears in Dunhuang, and if you pay attention to the news from all sides, you can guess the clue." She tapped her palms, and two maids walked in.

Han Ningshuang ordered: "Jiyue, Caiyun, I have met Mrs. Zhao."

"Ma'am." After the two maids saluted, Han Ningshuang smiled and said: "Mrs. Zhao is gentle and virtuous, knowledgeable and reasonable. It is your luck to follow her to Xiaguo." Jiyue and Caiyun blessed Li Ruoxue again , and then stood by.Apparently Han Ningshuang had already told them.

The two maids stand side by side, they are about the same height, Jiyue is graceful, bright and charming, while Caiyun has slender shoulders and slender waist, looking graceful and graceful.Although it is common for rich families to gift slaves and maidservants, it is not easy to raise a talent like Jiyue and Caiyun.Even in the noble mansions of the Southern Dynasties, she was still a maid who was favored by her master.

"Jiyue and Caiyun have been with me since childhood," Han Ningshuang showed a hint of warmth in her eyes, "I wanted to find a good family for them, but in the Han army, there is no one who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Xu Ren, I feel a little regretful. I would like to ask Mrs. Zhao to bring them to Xia Guo. They have been with me for a long time, and they are usually very capable. I will find a good family for them in the future." Han Ningshuang's eyes moved slightly, and her voice was a little shy, " If General Zhao and Mrs. Zhao are interested, they can also be kept, even if it is ... nothing in return." Her eyes were dimmed, and the sea breeze was blowing slightly, and Han Ningshuang stretched out her hand to trim the ends of her hair.

Li Ruoxue didn't know why, but she also felt a little sore in her heart. She bit her lip, rolled up her left sleeve, and took off the jasper bracelet on Hao's wrist, and said softly: "Ruoxue has nothing to repay, this leave Give it to my sister as a keepsake." This jasper bracelet is a gift from Zhao Xingde to his wife when he returned from Lumei, he once said "Love is like a thing, reunion is endless." So Li Ruoxue always wears it on her body.

Han Ningshuang knew the origin of the jade bracelet, she sighed: "Madam gave it generously, but I always wear military uniform, the jade bracelet is fragile and can't be worn, so I can only hide it." After saying that, she took the jade bracelet over, but gently Lightly placed on the table, eyes a little sad.

The two of them talked for a while, then Li Ruoxue said goodbye and left.The jasper bracelet was quietly placed on the table, Han Ningshuang looked at it for a long time, and finally picked it up.Although the jade bracelet was a bit tight when the cage was put on, it was just right after wearing it, and it was not easy to fall off.Hao wrist jade bracelet, crystal clear in the sun.Thinking of something, she sighed, put her hand on her chin, was stunned for a moment, and took off the jade bracelet again.

On the banks of the Onan River, the sky is covered by sand and dust.The cavalry of many grassland tribes galloped back and forth to kill.

A nobleman walked behind Uruk with a shy stomach, panting as he walked, "Tachiu people can't just be dismantled like this, Uruk, we are a tribe, how can we obey Bo Shenghuo? Arrangements. Whoever he wants to be the centurion will be the centurion. If this continues, everyone will only listen to Bo Shenghuo, and the Tachiwu tribe will cease to exist!"

Uruk had been walking quickly with a gloomy face, as if shaking off an annoying fly. Hearing this, he suddenly stopped and turned to stare at that person. Uruk's eyes were as fierce as a leopard's. Seeing that he was hairy all over, he said in a low voice, "What's the matter, Uruk, are you going to settle accounts with Bo Shenghuo?" Up to this moment, Chai Yanliu still hoped that Uruk would go to quarrel with Bo Shenghuo turn.Although the Tachiwu tribe was reorganized into the Tachiwu Ten Thousand Team, and Uruk became one of the ten thousand commanders, the underlying thousand commanders and centurion commanders were all appointed by Bo Shenghuo Mierbo. It was also formulated by Bo Shenghuo. In fact, the power of Uruk is far inferior to that of the original head of the Tachiwu tribe.

"If I hear you say bad things about Bo Sheng Khan again," Uruk stared at Chai Yanliu, the fly that buzzed all day long before becoming a commander, "I'll cut off your tongue. He ignored the frightened Chai Yanliu at all, turned around and strode away, mounted his horse, and quickly galloped to Bo Shenghuo Mierbo's banner.

"Uruk, come here," Bo Shenghuo beckoned to him, pointed to the two thousand-man troops charging down the hillside, and said in a deep voice, "That's how the cavalry of the Xia Kingdom charged. The key is not how thick the armor is. , The key is to have an orderly formation. The cavalry on the grassland is too loose to charge, and when we meet the cavalry of the Xia Kingdom, no matter how many people we have, but when we face each other, we can always beat them, that's why."

Uruk nodded, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.The longer I followed Bo Shenghuo, the more I discovered that he had countless abilities, and the attitude towards Bo Shenghuo, at the beginning, I had to regard him as a great sweat, and then became sincere loyalty and admiration.Since the defeat at Tuwulahe, Bo Sheng learned from the pain and summed up the reasons for the defeat. The first is that the tribes do not belong to each other.The second is that the elite and mediocre fighters are mixed together, and the cowardly ones drag down the brave ones.The third is that the warriors of the tribe only fight with a brute force, and the two armies cannot cooperate tacitly when facing each other.

Bo Shenghuo Mierbo, who was originally generous and somewhat mediocre, showed determination and means that surprised everyone this time.Resolutely reorganized the tribe that followed him into a team of four ten thousand people, and appointed four ten thousand husbands. The resourceful Temuge commanded the Tatar ten thousand team, the loyal Miegu commander the Ergu ten thousand team, and the small tribe formed a thousand man team. Master Wan governs.The relationship between the chief of ten thousand and the chief of thousands, and between the chief of thousands and the chief of hundreds is no longer the relationship between the chief of a large tribe and the chief of a small tribe, but a strict subordinate relationship.Bo Shenghuo Mierbo even followed the military law of the Liao Kingdom. In battle, if the commander died in battle, if the commander under his command retreated, the commander would be beheaded.If the commander of a thousand is killed in battle, but the commander of a centurion retreats, the centurion must be beheaded.

Bo Shenghuo personally selected [-] brave and loyal warriors, plus the adult heirs of the commanders of tens of thousands, commanders of thousands, and centurions, a total of [-] horsemen, known as the guards.In each team of [-] people, three thousand of the strongest and most valiant fighters were organized together, and the team of [-] people who followed Chief Wan was the most elite.The remaining members of each [-]-man team will first be divided into a heavy cavalry team of a thousand men and a light cavalry team of a thousand men according to the size and weight of their horses, and then those who are similar in color to their horses will be divided into teams of a hundred men.In this way, a heavy-carrying but slow horse will not drag down a light horse.On a chaotic battlefield, Commander Wan knew the position of his subordinates just by looking at the color of the horse.

Another advantage of this kind of organization is that it greatly disrupts the original tribal affiliation.Bo Shenghuo Mierbo has greatly increased his control over his subordinates by appointing military commanders at all levels, so that he can 'drill' and improve the coordination of grassland tribe cavalry according to his ideas, and began to try to annex some more weak tribe.In order to avoid the attack of the Anbei Army Division, Mierbo's tribe moved eastward as much as possible.However, the grassland here is not enough to feed so many tribes.It is said that the Anbei Army Division even planned to enter the territory of the Liao Kingdom to attack them.

"Wait for autumn," Bo Shenghuo looked at the bottom of the hillside, the horseshoes raised the smoke and dust almost into the clouds, and the cavalry shot arrows while charging, "Give them some more time, and we will definitely defeat the Anbei Army manage."
