Chapter 95: I Ride the Great Wall with Iron, and I Don’t Teach Huma to Cross Youzhou! [Fourth, ask for subscription].

In mid-May of the fifth year of Xuanhe, Chai Hao, the king of Youzhou, returned to Youzhou, where he had been away for most of the year.

After settling Master Li and Sanniang and the others, and letting the women meet with Yelu Yuli, Chai Hao immediately beat the drum and raised the tent and met with the generals.

“Meet the Lord!”

Above the handsome hall, all the generals bowed down in unison, and the sound shook the roof tiles!

This time, the generals under the hall are more and more lively than the last time they were raised.

There were Zhang Qing, Zhang Shun, Zhang Heng and other old Liangshan departments returning, and there was also the Nine Heavens Flying Dragon Pang Wanchun, the original Jiangnan general, who joined. In addition, there are three female generals, Pang Qiuxia, Fang Baihua, and Fang Jinzhi.

At this moment, in the handsome hall, all the generals gathered, and everyone’s faces had a vigorous smile on their faces.

In the past half a year since Chai Hao left, Wang Jin, Shi Wengong and other left-behind generals were ordered to train soldiers and horses every day, and there was not a day of slack, and the combat effectiveness of the remaining army in Youzhou was significantly improved.

And Chai Hao threatened Fang La in Jiangnan and forced Fang La to compensate hundreds of thousands of grain and grass, cloth, and goods.

He also leveled Huaixi, capturing more than one million grain and grass goods, a small half of which was transported to Liangshan, and most of them were transported to Youzhou. Plus the bamboo obtained from Tong Guan before, and the grain and grass accumulated in the Liao Kingdom era in the Youzhou Mansion.

Today, in Youzhou, there are more than a million stones in stock of military food alone!

When Youzhou went south in Chai Hao, there were 30,000 soldiers and horses left, and 5,000 soldiers and horses left in Jixian. Coupled with Chai Hao’s southward journey, the expanded Tianyu Army, the Lady Army and other soldiers and horses.

At this moment, not counting the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses left behind in Liangshan, only in the area of Youzhou Jixian, the men and horses under Chai Hao have exceeded 50,000! And all of them are elite!

The Yulin army rode 1,000 horses, the iron cavalry army 6,000 horses, the Longjie army 6,000 horses, the crane army 10,000 pawns, the Hujie army 10,000 pawns, the Xinli Tianyu army 6,000 people, and the Niangzi army 3,000 people.

These soldiers and horses totaled 42,000 infantry and horses, including 13,000 iron horses and 29,000 infantry.

In addition, there are Ping navies under the command of the Ruan brothers, mixed river dragon Li Jun and other naval generals, and nearly 10,000 people in the two naval forces.

With such momentum, there are Youzhou, a big city and important town, as well as Jixian and other prefectures, totaling millions of Yanchi people who have returned to the king of Youzhou.

It can be said that the soldiers are rich in food and have deep roots!

Of course, in terms of army establishment, even according to the small military system of 10,000 people, Chai Hao’s command is not full except for the two infantry armies of the Control Crane Army and the Hujie Army, which reached a full strength of 10,000 people.

Compared with the 50,000-strong army of the Great Song Dynasty, it looks much worse. However, each of Chai Hao’s soldiers and horses is a corresponding roster, and it is a solid foot soldier’s salary.

Moreover, most of the generals under Chai Hao are veterans who have seen blood on the battlefield and have combat experience, coupled with the high-spirited, self-confident spirit and morale under Chai Hao’s command, making Chai Hao’s army a well-deserved elite in this era!

Even those Huaixi soldiers were originally under Wang Qing, but after Chai Hao incorporated them into the Tianyu Army, under the leadership of those generals from the Tianyu Army, and under the prestige of Chai Hao’s Youzhou King Invincible, these Huaixi soldiers also had a qualitative transformation!

The main thing is the will in the heart!

Originally, under Wang Qing, they were just an ordinary anti-thief army, far worse than Fang La and Tian Hu, and they would not necessarily be wiped out by the imperial court one day.

But under Chai Hao’s command, they are the invincible division of the King of Youzhou!

Although the number of troops under Chai Hao added up, there were more than 50,000 people, which was only equivalent to the establishment of soldiers and horses along the way of the Great Song Dynasty.

But these soldiers have a kind of self-confidence, that is, their lord Chai Hao will one day lead them to overthrow the rotten Great Song and establish a new dynasty like the sky!

This is the source of morale in their hearts, because Chai Hao’s invincible prestige makes them have fighting spirit and expectations, and they are proud to be soldiers for Chai Hao!

And the Great Song Imperial Court, although it sounds like a million forbidden troops in the world, millions of box troops. But in fact, the elite that the Great Song can fight is only the hundreds of thousands of the Western Army.

Even among the Western Army, there is Liu Yanqing, who claims to be 50,000 and actually eats almost half of the empty pay. And the rest of the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty is even more imaginable.

Take the Hebei Forbidden Army as an example, when Hebei bordered the Liao State, in order to guard against the Liao State, Hebei originally gathered heavy troops, claiming to have hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops.

In Xiongzhou alone, there are 100,000 troops!

But more than a hundred years later, a few years ago, after the previous Xiongzhou Zhizhou arrived in office, he counted the soldiers and horses of Xiongzhou and found that there were only six or seven thousand lazy soldiers who lacked training, and most of the rest were eaten up…

It can be seen from this that the entire Hebei Road, the military system has become so decadent! The military salaries allocated by the imperial court to Xiongzhou and various parts of Hebei were corrupted by officials and generals and ministers of the dynasty over the years…

Therefore, if Chai Hao really wanted to replace Zhao Song at this time, with the 50,000 elite soldiers in Youzhou, it would be enough to break the bamboo all the way and hit Bianliang City! Just like during the Jingkang period in history, the Jin army hit Bianliang like a broken bamboo.

Even, because Chai Hao is not a foreign race, and has the identity of a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, he has won the hearts of many people in the world.

Therefore, if Chai Hao wants to capture Bianliang, he is afraid that he will be faster than the Jin army, and after capturing it, he will quickly and completely control Bianliang, instead of being untenable like the Jin army, and can only grab a wave and leave.

But Chai Hao did not do this.

……

Because he didn’t want the shame of Jingkang to happen again, and he didn’t want to let the Central Plains fight internally and consume in the situation that there was a big enemy in the north, Jin Guo.

Instead, let himself and Youzhou’s iron horsemen and warriors become a wall of Huaxia in Youzhou, blocking the iron hooves of the Jin Army from Youzhou!

I use iron riding as the city wall, and I don’t teach the golden people to ride through Youzhou! This is Chai Hao’s heart!

He did this not for Zhao Song, but for the sake of the people of the world, for his own future, to be able to receive a complete world that was not destroyed by war as much as possible!

“Time changes, Duan Jingzhu listens to the seal!”

The two of you infiltrated the Jin Country Horse Farm this time and captured 30,000 war horses, which can equip our army with at least 10,000 iron horses!” Such merit deserves to be rewarded!

For the two of you to make a great merit once, nine turns of the medal, each reward of 1,000 taels of gold, and 100 acres of Xuntian!

“The rest of the meritorious soldiers who participated, taking this as an example, decreased according to the size of the merit, and a total of 3,000 taels of gold were rewarded.”

Looking at the generals in the hall, Chai Hao retracted his thoughts, looked at the flea on the drum with appreciative eyes, and Duan Jingju, the golden retriever, and announced that he would reward them again.

Immediately, a group of Yulin soldiers took out five thousand taels of gold and placed them in the hall. Five thousand taels of gold, golden and brilliant, very eye-catching.

This was taken out of the 30,000 taels of gold that Chai Hao had obtained from Fang La, and at this moment, he did not hesitate to take one-sixth to reward the soldiers such as Duan Jingzhu who had made great achievements.

When Chai Hao went south to Jiangnan in September last year, he once gave Shiqian Duan Jingzhu an errand.

Let them take advantage of their absence in Youzhou and the Jin Army to relax their vigilance, sneak into the Jin Country to play their specialties, buy or take for Youzhou, and get some high-quality war horses back.

Even Chai Hao himself did not expect that these two guys, who actually took a hundred and ten Liao people in the army, pretended to be Liao traitors who defected to the Jin army, mixed into a horse farm between Wuzhou and Yunzhou in the Jin Kingdom, and patiently served Jin Guo as a horse slave for half a year.

When the hundreds of golden soldiers guarding the horse farm began to trust them, Shiqian Duan Jingzhu stunned more than half of the golden soldiers with Meng Khan medicine, and took a hundred and ten Liao soldiers to solve the hundred and ten golden soldiers on duty.

Then he controlled a few head horses in that horse farm, and with a herd of 30,000 war horses, he bypassed the checkpoint of the Jin army and returned to Youzhou.

All of a sudden, he brought Chai Hao 30,000 high-quality war horses, one person and three horses, which can equip 10,000 iron horses! If it is one man and two horses, it can be equipped with 15,000 iron horses!

And Chai Hao has 10,000 more iron horses, and the Jin Army has less weapons that can equip 10,000 horses. This trade-off is equivalent to 20,000 or 30,000 iron horses!

How can such merit not be rewarded with such merit?
