Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Six: Expanded Cavalry
Since Pu Yuan needed sketches, Zhuge Liang drew the crossbow arrow according to his own ideas.
After getting the sketch, Pu Yuan was excited and ran back to the weapons shop and summoned the group of skilled craftsmen under his command to discuss it.
"Haha, Lord Pu Yuan's enthusiasm is incomparable."
Zhuge Liang smiled.
In fact, the officials in Yizhou are very enthusiastic about their work. However, there are not many people who are as enthusiastic as Pu Yuan who ignores etiquette.
"This is the spirit of craftsmanship."
Wu Shun said: Pu Yuan can forget other things when he works. This style of work has affected the entire weapon workshop, so the weapons and equipment of the Wuling Army are very sophisticated.
"Lord, according to the Black Guard's return, Cao Cao and Liu Bei had another friction in Yuzhou. The Cao army was not at all inferior to the one-on-three."
Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and said carelessly.
The war far away in Yuzhou seemed to have little impact on Yizhou.
"Cao Cao is really a hero! Although Liu Bei and Sun Ce are also heroes, their strength is still slightly worse than Cao Cao. As for Liu Biao, he is purely accustomed to the so-called "sauce!"
"Smooth sauce?"
Zhuge Liang couldn't understand the new word that suddenly popped up in Wu Shun.
"The meaning of making soy sauce is to work hard but not work hard, just play around."
After Wu Shun's explanation, Zhuge Liang roughly understood the meaning of making soy sauce.
"The combat power of Cao's army has been greatly improved, so the lord must be careful!"
Judging from the form of the battlefield in Yuzhou, Cao Cao's soldiers were becoming more and more powerful. Zhuge Liang was a little worried that Wu Shun would underestimate the enemy. After all, Cao's army was defeated by Wu Shun.
But is Wu Shun the kind of person who underestimates the enemy? He never underestimates anyone.
Zhuge Liang's reminder to himself made Wu Shun realize what he should do.
At this time, let Gan Ning go out and copy Liu Biao's back? Doing so will indirectly help Cao Cao. Wu Shun did not want to relieve Cao Cao's pressure.
Sooner or later, Cao's army and Wuling army will face each other. At this time, one more army will die.
"Let Cao Cao consume it well in Yuzhou, well, let Wei Yan get some war horses."
Wu Shun thought that the Wuling army should not move lightly now and should not put pressure on other princes. The soldiers should not be idle either. They always have to do something.
"Kong Ming, if the Wuling Army wants to increase its organization, which legion should be expanded first?"
Wu Shun asked his great military advisor.
"Lord, according to the current trend, we should strengthen our cavalry! When the Central Plains is in chaos, the lord can send troops to sweep the world!"
Zhuge Liang replied.
Capturing Hanzhong, occupying Hangu Pass, and accumulating strength to wait for the time. This was agreed by the top leaders of Yizhou.
The Wuling Army is now about to expand, so of course we must first expand our cavalry.
"Haha, what Kong Ming thought coincides with me. To expand the cavalry, we must first have enough war horses. Where is Ma Teng? I wonder if the war horses are enough?"
Wu Shun expressed his concerns.
"The lord is worried that the Qinglong cavalry needs war horses. Even if the number is not enough, Lord Ma will try his best."
Zhuge Liang replied.
Ma Teng was indeed raising horses for Wu Shun in Xiliang. However, some rumors always make people think too much.
"Then let Wen Chang go and ask for the war horses by himself."
The Qinglong Legion is about to be expanded, and Wu Shun thinks Wei Yan will be very active.
"Qua!"
"The last one will be here!"
"Transfer to Wei Yan, asking him to go to Liangzhou to find Ma Teng, and find a way to raise all the war horses needed for 50,000 people. If you haven't been able to get it in a month, you will give it to someone else the opportunity to expand."
"I'll go here!"
The expansion of the legion is a huge matter. Wei Yan is lucky to have the opportunity to fall on the Qinglong Legion.
After receiving Qu A's notification, Wei Yan was ecstatic and shouted at his lord Yingming, then immediately reorganized the army and galloped towards Xiliang.
He really can't wait!
Wei Yan didn't know how many resources the Qinglong Legion needed to expand to 50,000 people. But he knew that the cavalry legion of 50,000 people needed was definitely not 50,000 war horses!
Ma Teng has been raising horses for so long, but I don’t know if it’s enough! What Wei Yan is worried about now is this.
With the ability of the entire Yizhou, Wei Yan's expansion of the army had reached the upper limit. Although he had not reached the limit, Wu Shun did not want to be so aggressive.
A large territory must always take into account both.
In five days, the Qinglong Legion ran from Yizhou to Liangzhou. Ma Teng received Wei Yan in Jincheng. After learning about the purpose of the Qinglong Legion, he directly handed over the war horses he had in his hands to Wei Yan.
At this time, the embarrassing thing went on to fight.
There are not enough war horses!
"Master Ma, can you think of a solution?"
Wei Yan smiled and begged Ma Teng.
The entire Xiliang can provide ten thousand war horses! This is the most proud thing about Ma Teng in the past two years!
However, these 10,000 war horses are still far from Wei Yan's demand.
Wu Shun gave Wei Yan the deadline to prepare all the war horses within one month. At that time, Wei Yan felt that this was not a condition. He did not realize it until he came to Liangzhou that he realized that this was a pit.
"General Wei, Xiliang can provide only one thousand war horses, no matter how many there are, there are really no war horses."
Ma Teng's head was shaking like a rattle. He knew that this was a small test Wu Shun gave Wei Yan!
I also want to help, but I have to ask for so many war horses at once, where can I find them?
Ma Teng could only express his helplessness to Wei Yan in his heart.
"Is there really no way?"
Wei Yan asked unwillingly.
"There is a way, but..."
Ma Teng wanted to speak but stopped, he was afraid that Wei Yan would be in trouble.
"Please give me advice!"
Since there is still a way, Wei Yan doesn't want to miss it. Only by gathering all the war horses can his Qinglong Legion expand.
"There are no war horses available in Xiliang Horse Farm, but there are Qiang people, the Xiongnu people, and the Xianbei people."
Ma Teng stopped and did not explain in detail. He understood the tradition of the Wuling Army. After all, what Wu Shun did before was already well-known.
"Is this the only way to do it? Will it cause trouble for the lord?"
Wei Yan understood what Ma Teng meant as soon as he said it.
There are no war horses in Xiliang, but others have them. There are only two ways to turn other people's war horses into their own. One is to buy or exchange, and grab them for twenty.
Thinking of this, Wei Yan was in trouble. Wu Shun did not pay for him to buy war horses.
Grab it?
Wei Yan is considering risks and consequences.
He was not afraid of not being able to grab it, but was afraid of causing trouble for Wu Shun. At this time, the Wuling Army was hiding and it was not advisable to make enemies everywhere.
If it were in the past, Wei Yan would not have thought so much, and he would not have had a war horse and just rob someone else's.
But now it is related to the discovery and growth of the Qinglong Legion. He is afraid that he will mess it up, so Wu Shun will allocate the opportunity to expand the army to other legions.
"General Wei, how are you thinking about it?"
Ma Teng asked.
Wei Yan couldn't help but want to curse people! The old fox said halfway, let me do strange things, and you have a good reputation?
"Sir Ma, what are you thinking about?"
Wei Yan pretends to be stupid.
"Just go and grab it...uh..."
