"We are not very enough to cows," said Sun Jingting. "After the spring, we have to cultivate a large amount of new land, and we need to cultivate a large amount of oxen to cultivate the land. It is not enough to raise cattle in Beilu, and it is not enough to raise horses and sheep. But no matter what, we have to find a way to free up one or two thousand cattle and transport them by sea."

Since Sun Jingting's attitude has changed a lot since he has been to Taiwan, and he has gone from doubt to unreserved support for Taiwan.

Li Pingzhi and He Bin quickly thanked him a few words, and Sun Jingting said: "No need to do this. Isn't Taiwan a good friend? Is Taiwan not my responsibility?"

“That’s true.”

"We're not thinking about it."

Both senior civil servants in the marching department laughed. At this time, they faintly realized why the military officers wanted to promote large-scale exchanges between officials and soldiers in the north and south? Over time, the centrifugal force would naturally arise. The north would also send a considerable number of senior civil servants and generals to work in Taiwan for a period of time. It would be easier for each other to accept each other and would truly treat them as a family.

If people do not communicate with each other over time, or only one-way communication will occur, centrifugal force will easily appear, which is also full of uncertainty for Hutchison's future and is not a good thing.

"I heard that Lord Zhang decided to slow down the attracting refugees from the north?" Li Pingzhi asked a question he was very concerned about, and he said: "We Taiwan have a considerable demand for manpower. If the military department has such considerations, I would like to ask tens of millions to take it back."

"I won't consider slowing down in Taiwan." Sun Jingting said: "If the north is slowing down or not collecting, I don't want to stimulate the court anymore. The land of the Ministry of Finance is fertile and fertile, and it is not difficult to attract millions of people to reclaim land. Millions of people in northern Shaanxi have gone to the grasslands, and we can settle down. But if we really make millions of people in northern Shaanxi, several governments will be empty, and local officials can tolerate it, but the court cannot tolerate it. Taiwan accepts refugees from Liaodong, and they will starve to death if they don't leave. The court cannot say that it is accurate. Fujian has the cooperation of Zheng Junmen, and Guangdong and Guangxi also have a heritage of going to sea to make a living. It is feasible to immigrate more than 100,000 people in five years. The Government Affairs Hall is happy to see it, and will try to help."

"It's so good." Li Pingzhi bowed and said, "Before he came here, what Chang Zhengshi was most worried about was this. If there was no impact, it would be the best."

He Bin said: "Mr. Zhang is in Xinpingbao, and Chang Zhengshi is also very worried..."

"I think Lord Zhang will send him a private message." Sun Jingting dismissed and said, "Don't worry."

After everyone said for a long time, Liang Xingcai said again: "Did the army go south?"

"Go south." Sun Jingting said decisively: "The Lancers and ours slowly head south together. The hunting cavalry and the dragon cavalry left first, and the baggage soldiers moved with them to provide logistics support, and were also ready to open the door and transport supplies after closing."

A deputy chief official said: "What about the excuse, public opinion preparations should be made in terms of propaganda."

Sun Jingting said: "Of course, the imperial court banned the port and cut off logistics. The supply on the grassland was difficult, so the soldiers asked the court for an explanation... Are we the Ming regiment training? After fighting the Northern Barbarians, the court should provide food, salary and rewards!"

Everyone laughed when they heard this. This was the first time that many people saw Sun Jingting so free and unrestrained. Tens of thousands of troops heading south and forcing Jizhen to close the door was definitely a major event that shocked the Ming Dynasty. However, Sun Jingting was so free and did not seem to take the next reaction and vibration to heart. Li Pingzhi and others also secretly respected him. If they were, they might not have such courage.

No wonder Zhang Han entrusted Hutchison to this person after leaving. Although the military and political aspects are separated, with leaders like Sun Jingting, they not only have sufficient abilities, but also have considerable personal charm. At the same time, they deserve full trust in character and relationships... From everyone's psychology, their trust in Sun Jingting is more than that of Li Shenming and others. Although they are also Hutchison's elderly and have a close relationship with Zhang Han, people obviously trust and respect Sun Jingting more.

This is the bonus of personal charm. Zhang Han selected the first shopkeeper, who was quite qualified.

After the military order, the army began to go out to the camp in turn, less than 200 miles away from the border, about three days away, the baggage soldiers did not need to bring too much supplies. They only brought 15 days of food, including staple food and meat, vegetables, canned food, oil and salt, etc. In addition, military doctors and medical soldiers and medical equipment accompanied, and artillery soldiers brought ammunition with the vehicle, which was generally light. Moreover, soldiers knew that most of them could not fight, and even if they really fought, they would be ruined. Nowadays, soldiers were full of resentment towards the Ming Dynasty and would not have any psychological burden when they acted.

Most of the merchants brought their families to the grassland. If they had the attachment and guilt for the Ming Dynasty before, they were almost gone at all now.

The current dragon cavalry regiment has almost all become horses and infantry, and everyone has horses and riding. Of course, it is not necessarily all high-quality war horses. Most of the soldiers ride miscellaneous horses.

Although there are many horse herds on the grassland, they cannot suddenly supply a large number of troops. Previously, all Mongolian tribes grazed horse herds, and used to trade with the Ming Dynasty was part of their horse herds. Under the war on the grassland for several years, many tribes were in danger and in chaos, and the number of war horse herds was greatly reduced.

What Hutchison now needs to do is to restore herds everywhere as soon as possible, not to focus on sheep, but to give priority to the recovery of herds of cattle and horses.

War horses and plowing oxen are the most priority and most needed. Of course, the flocks are also important. The source of fur and meat and milk are very important. However, compared with the situation where the Mongolians regard the flock as plowing land, the Hutchison has supplemented the meat source in the mainland, there are a large number of breeding pigs and chickens, and a large group of ducks that are stocked in various water systems. The source of meat is much richer than that of the Mongolians, so restoring the flock is not the top priority. On the contrary, the scale of the army will become larger and larger in the future, including the convoys of the baggage, and the number of horses required will become larger and larger.

Lu Dafu and others stared at the scene in front of them. Large circles of dragoons were leading, with company flags as the guide, and several advance companies set out. Four cavalry and one column soon gathered into a long column. Then a large number of companies moved closer to each other and divided into several large columns. At this time, the baggage chariots and cavalry teams were approaching, and the war horses and horses kept neighing. The convoy made a sound of chariots. The large convoys could not see the edge at first sight. The squadron flags, company flags, battalions, team flags, and floating military flags everywhere. A large number of gray-robed soldiers quickly formed a huge cavalry team and drove south with the large convoy.

There are too many people and horses, and there is almost no side at all. The horse's hooves tread the ground, and there is a faint tremor that makes people dizzy and dizzy.

People who have been on the islands and on the sea for a long time have never seen such a huge cavalry team. They can only see military flags, weapons, and countless war horses. The huge cavalry team is moving forward at a trot speed, with residual snow and dead grass branches and leaves kicked by horse hooves everywhere. It seems that a strong wind is sweeping through the sky, and the snow is floating in the air, and the cavalry team is soon shrouded in the snowflakes.

Lu Dafu said sincerely: "In a few years, my Jishang Army has reached this scale, which is so shocking."

Zheng Cai, Zheng Zhibao and others felt the pressure like a mountain, the pressure of the riding formation rolling forward, the pressure like a mountain, especially the lances behind the dragon cavalry. At this time, they had already put down their armor and their whole bodies were wrapped in black iron armor.

Unlike the Donglu who liked to use bright silver armor, after a period of controversy among the lances, the entire army adopted the method of turning iron armor black.

Black iron helmet, black facial armor, black iron scale armor or breastplate. If possible, these guys wish they could make the war horses pitch black.

Even so, dark horses are preferred when the lances choose their battle horses.

Later, the Military Control Commission simply used all the dark horses to the lances. In front of Zheng Cai and others, there were the moving iron beasts and their mounts.

The cold black armored clothes, the violent black war horse, the knights in the black armored clothes merged with the war horse, and only the weapons in their hands flashed with silver glimmer.

Even the eyes inside the armor were cold and cruel. When looking at Zheng Cai and others, they lacked the enthusiasm of their comrades to meet each other, and seemed to be looking at a group of enemies or dead people.

The number of lances was not large and they had been receiving the most difficult training. They had the strongest sense of group honor and were always regarded as the final word on the battlefield. Most of them had experienced several hard battles, because the lances were not as large as they are at the beginning of their establishment. The Mongols at that time were quite confident in small-scale cavalry battles. The early lancers once destroyed the remaining troops of Tumot in a few days when they captured Qingcheng. When the battle of Xiaoheihe, the left-wing lancers could already penetrate Qingcheng.

Before Zheng Cai and others, the cavalry kept moving forward. Finally, the Central Army Command moved forward. Yang Sixun was in command of the enemy and had already set out with the Dragoon team. Sun Jingting and others were not responsible for commanding, but were just named the Central Army. This time it was not a war, but to deal with the complex relationship with the Ming Dynasty. Yang Sixun could not be a family, and Liang Xing, the Privy Council envoy, could not do it, so Sun Jingting could only come to deal with it in person.

Half an hour passed when the central army set off, the hunting cavalry like red clouds also began to dispatch southwards, and the regiments kept a distance. Yang Sixun had determined the southward route and the camps of each regiment a few days ago. The action of the army was not something that could be done with a wave of his hand. The advance route planning, the determination of the camp site, the time and route to start again, the rotation and communication between the departments, and the smoothness of the military order system. These things will be planned in advance and will be able to move freely.

By this time, people from Taiwan were already excited. There was no war on the way north this time, but it was quite a pleasure to participate in such a big scene.

When the six-year service period in the north ended and returned to Taiwan, today's events may be the most important thing worthy of blowing up.

The fierceness of the sea battle may be greater than that of the land war. After all, the ship will sink or be successfully jumped by the enemy. Everyone must be fully energetic, and even the generals cannot guarantee their absolute safety.

On land, there is an unreserved power. At the moment of the iron cavalry, there is no way to stop it. Any enemy who dares to fight against the cavalry team in front of you will undoubtedly be crushed to death. Seeing such power, you will feel the insignificance and tragedy of a person. Before such a large cavalry team is established, it can indeed make people feel powerless.

At this time, everyone has a sense of pride in their hearts because they are part of this power.

At this time, Zheng Cai also felt a vague feeling in his heart. No wonder the Mongol Yuan was once invincible. Once he had such a large cavalry, he would really crush the enemy.

Zheng Cai thought about the other hand, if Hutchison's maritime power was stronger, there would be those 1,000-ton ships equipped with 100-ton guns, or even 2,000-ton ships equipped with 100-ton guns, and more than 100-ton guns.

Which side is stronger when such a cavalry meets such a giant ship?

This is an unsolvable problem. The once arrogant young man has been thinking about it for a long time, but he has never gotten the answer.
