1672: Recall the Barbarians

Accompanied by He Weiping, Qin Feng and Zhong Zhen left Hulao Pass and went straight toward the Hengduan Mountains. Although Zhong Zhen has now transformed from martial arts to civilians and became a generous rank of officials, his years of military career naturally made him unable to get rid of the army. Although Qin Feng did not clearly state what this army is for, since it can attract the attention of the emperor, it is naturally a big deal. Moreover, this army is trained in Hengduan Mountains. With his sense of smell, he naturally knows that it may be specially used to deal with the situation in Hengduan Mountains.

Although Zhong Zhen had no business with He Weiping, he still had a certain understanding of this person. This is not a person without ability. During the Former Qin Dynasty, as the deputy general of Hulao Pass, he had been stationed in the Hengduan Mountains, fighting against the invasion of Qi. It can be said that he had attacks and defenses, and tried hard to ensure that the Hengduan Mountains were not occupied by the Qi people, causing the Former Qin to face a dangerous situation.

But since this year, he was beaten to a very embarrassing by Qi general Tuobayan. At first, Zhong Zhen was quite surprised because Tuobayan was a Qi general who had been stationed in the Hengduan Mountains for several years and had confronted He Weiping for several years. He had never seen this person be so powerful before. Why did this person feel like he had been reborn after a year?

It was not until the matter of Tuobayan was exposed that Zhong Zhen suddenly realized that it was not that Tuobayan had changed someone else, but that this person had not tried his best before. Now that this person completely betrayed the Ming Dynasty and surrendered to Qi, of course he had to take out all the skills to deal with He Weiping.

The importance of Hengduan Mountains to the current Ming Dynasty is actually no less than that of Qin before. If Tuobayan really wants to completely occupy the Hengduan Mountains, Hulao Pass will face a direct impact from the Qi army. If Hulao Pass is lost, the western land will be cut open by the Qi people from the Ming Dynasty. No one wants to see this situation.

When he arrived at the Hulao Zhiquan, out of curiosity, he also found He Weiping to read some of the previous war files and carefully reviewed them. He had to admit that he would not do better than He Weiping in such a mountain battle.

In other words, if he is above He Weiping's position, he will still be defeated.

Tuobayan didn't invest much, but his military use was extremely strange. He always had unexpected actions, which were completely beyond the imagination of a normal person. If he didn't take action, he would have to hit the Ming army with one move. Such an opponent also made Zhong Zhen feel a headache.

In places like Hengduan Mountains, no matter how much troops are invested, it doesn’t have much practical significance. Not to mention that He Weiping has only six battle camps and 300,000 people, even if he scatters into Hengduan Mountains, he can immediately flood you with a shadow. Without any help, He Weiping could only defend the enemy. In this way, it would be equivalent to giving Qi army the right to move freely in Hengduan Mountains.

No wonder His Majesty pays attention to this place and trains a new force for it.

"Here, your majesty, there is a training camp ahead." He Weiping Road pointed to the rows of barracks at the foot of the mountain in the distance.

"Let's go." Qin Feng ran forward with a clamp on his horse's belly.

Outside the barracks, Murong Hai brought several generals and officials to greet them from afar.

Qin Feng dismounted his horse by slitting his saddle and looking at Murong Hai and said, "How is the progress?"

Murong Hai shook his head: "Your Majesty, it will not be a day to train such a unit. In more than a month, it is impossible to make them master these skills proficiently. Like Mo Jiang and others, they have grown up in the mountains since they were young, and walking on horseback in the mountains is like an ordinary person walking on a spacious road. After 10 or 20 years, they have mastered this skill."

“That is, there is no progress!”

Murong Hai lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, I am ashamed. I have thought it simple. The cavalry that General He recruited is indeed good, but they are tigers on the plains. Once they enter the mountain, they will be unable to perform at all. Over the past month, they have been hurt continuously. Not to mention General He feels distressed, even the last general is heartbroken."

Qin Feng frowned and stepped into the barracks and walked directly to the large schoolyard behind the camp. Unlike ordinary schoolyards, there was a small hill at the edge of the large schoolyard. The mountains were lush and forests were lush. Looking up, many obstacles were set up artificially. At this time, training was in progress.

An officer rode on a horse, rushed out of the plain like lightning, and headed straight up the mountain along the sheep path, walking along the mountain like a spirit fish. After a while, he crossed the obstacles and rushed into the dense forest, disappearing from everyone's sight. Behind him, a small group of knights followed closely, but the speed was very eye-catching. Although he could only finish the subject in the end, the bumps and bumps in it were terrible.

"Your Majesty, it's not that the soldiers are not brave. At the beginning, they were also brave and diligent. However, over the past month, more than 100 excellent cavalrymen have been injured, and some of them have even ruined their military careers. More war horses were injured and destroyed. It is understandable that the soldiers were afraid."

Qin Feng pondered without saying a word.

I brought the cavalry who was good at fighting on the plains to train mountain cavalry. It seems that like Murong Hai, I thought things were so simple, thinking that if I had excellent riding skills, I could understand them like this. Obviously, I was thinking too much.

"Your Majesty, where do these instructors come from?" After seeing several sets of training, Zhong Zhen suddenly asked.

"Mr. Zhong, those people are my former companions." Murong Hai explained for Qin Feng.

Zhong Zhen said oh, and it turned out that these people were all the barbarians of the past. The barbarians lived in the mountains for countless years and rode horses between the mountains. It became an instinct. No wonder they were so skillful.

"Your Majesty, since there are ready-made people available, why not?" After saying a while, he suddenly stopped. After the imperial court annexed the barbarians, he tried every means to break them apart and placed them all over the country. The purpose was to not want them to get together. His idea was so stupid. His Majesty the Emperor might not want the barbarians to form a single army again.

"Your Majesty, although most of our tribe members have gone down the mountain now, and the younger generation basically no longer has this ability, but although people from the same era have not been on the horse for many years and have become more unfamiliar with their skills, as long as they are given a chance, they will definitely show their style and be able to make contributions to the court." Murong Hai was afraid that it was not undetected this possibility, but it was difficult to raise it directly because of his identity. Now Zhong Zhen has made a head start, and he made up his mind and simply said it out.

"Do you think it's OK?" Qin Feng looked at Murong Hai and asked.

Murong Hai took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, it has been nearly ten years since our clan has been in the Ming Dynasty. Take the Mo Jiang family as an example. In the Ming Dynasty, there are land, real estate, and deposits in the bank. His son even studied and became an official. He now wrote a letter to the Mo Jiang, saying that I am the Ming Dynasty, and the situation of the Mo Jiang is like this. Therefore, the Mo Jiang thinks it is completely available. And, and "

After hesitating for a moment, he chose to act directly: "Now everyone lives all over the world. Even if they gather together to form a single army, their families are scattered all over the place, which is very easy to control."

When Zhong Zhen and He Weiping on the other side saw that they were talking about such a sensitive topic, they immediately pretended to have something to discuss and kept talking to themselves. In fact, their ears were listening to the words beside them.

When Qin Feng heard Murong Hai say this, he couldn't help laughing and patted his shoulder: "Your son is doing a good job in Chu. The memorials from the Censor's newspaper all evaluate him as young and promising. It's no problem to have a long way to go to the border."

"Your Majesty is absurd."

"I heard that he hasn't been married yet?"

Murong Hai said: "Yes, he used to study with his mother. Because I was not by my side, his mother did not dare to engage him without authorization, so this matter was delayed. After Mo Jiang returned, many people proposed marriages, and Mo Jiang was still hesitating!"

Qin Feng smiled and said, "I've returned to those people, I'll find a good marriage for you. Do you know the Xie family in Chu Di?"

Murong Hai was surprised. Of course, he knew that it was a wealthy family in the world.

"Don't the Xie family have a daughter who is crossing the capital now? Looking back, I will marry your son." Qin Feng said.

Murong Hai was stunned: "Your Majesty, that's yours."

"What is me?" Qin Feng glared at him. Murong Hai immediately shrank.

"This matter is decided like this. When I return to Yuejing City, I will handle this matter. Your son is doing well in Chu now. If you marry the daughter of the Xie family and practice for a few years, you can take on the burden of a county. With the help of such a local tyrant as the Xie family, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

This is Xu Qin and promise again. Of course Murong Hai knew what this was for, so he didn't dare to say anything at the moment. He knelt down and said, "I thank Lord Long for your kindness."

"You have been the commander of my personal soldiers for more than half a year. It's time to do things. Just put it in Huzhu as a deputy general for He Weiping, and allow you to recruit 5,000 people from the same clan to form a mountain cavalry battalion. You can choose all the generals and officials. Of course, you have no right to interfere with the military judge and the inspector. How about it?"

"The last general will be willing to be trampled on the ground to repay the emperor's kindness." Murong Hai knocked down with a heavy head. He has been promoted from above. He has been following Qin Feng for so many years. After he came out, he was just a commander of the general of the new army of Hulao. He personally led a cavalry battalion. Qin Feng's attention to this place is self-evident.

"He Weiping, what do you think?"

"With General Murong's help, I will be filled with joy." He Weiping nodded repeatedly.

Qin Feng reached out and helped Murong Hai up: "That Tuobayan is familiar with you, and he is kind to you."
