Chapter 269 Trust
While Cheng Yaojin was exchanging greetings with Lin Xuan, the commander of Cheng Yaojin's soldiers walked in and said, "I want to report to the General, Your Majesty has sent someone here to let the General and the Marquis of Jingyang County enter the palace."
Lin Xuan was a little puzzled, it was understandable to ask Cheng Yaojin about the border, why did he ask him?
Cheng Yaojin waved his hand and said, "Got it."
Without delay, the two went to the palace immediately.
When they came to the gate of the palace, it happened that Yu Chigong had also arrived.
"I met Uncle Yuchi." Lin Xuan saluted with a smile.
"Haha, let's go in quickly."
Yu Chigong was very happy, he didn't know if it was because he brought back [-] horses or because of Hou Junji.
Lin Xuan had heard that Yu Chigong and Hou Junji seemed to be at odds.
Looking at Yu Chigong's expression, Lin Xuan felt that he must be happy because of Hou Junji's misfortune, but Lin Xuan didn't know what kind of conflict they had.
The three came to the Ganlu Hall, and under the guidance of the eunuch, they entered the main hall.
"Your Majesty and I will see you!" Lin Xuan bowed and saluted for three days.
Li Shimin said with a smile: "Zhijie, Jingde, you have worked hard, sit down and talk."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After seeing the two of them sit down, Lin Xuan wondered if he should sit down.
Seeing that Lin Xuan was at a loss, Li Shimin said, "Sit down too."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lin Xuan heaved a sigh of relief, he thought Li Shimin was deliberately punishing him.
Li Shimin looked at Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong, and said with a smile: "Tell me about the situation of Western Turks and Xue Yantuo."
Although he had read the process of Yaojin before, they sent someone to send back the memorial.
However, given Cheng Yaojin's educational level, the written description can only describe a general idea, not the specifics at all.
Cheng Yaojin fought and began to tell Li Shimin excitedly.
Listening to Cheng Yaojin's vivid description, Lin Xuan sighed secretly, it's a pity that Cheng Yaojin didn't go to storytelling.
Cheng Yaojin spent half an hour and finally finished speaking.
"Okay!" Li Shimin gave an applause after listening.
Lin Xuan rolled his eyes, one can listen to it, and the other is willing to listen, it is also a perfect match.
Cheng Yaojin chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know what to do with the one hundred thousand horses?"
Li Shimin thought for a while and said: "After the horseshoes are nailed up, I will distribute [-] horses to Lin Xuan. I haven't figured out the rest yet."
He originally thought about expanding the Xuanjia Cavalry.
The most important thing to expand the cavalry this time is to deal with the grassland.
But Xuanjiaqi is heavy cavalry, and heavy cavalry is used to charge the battle, of course it is unstoppable.
If it is used to fight on the grassland, as long as the Western Turks and Xue Yantuo are not stupid, avoid their edge.
Then dragging can also drag Xuanjiaqi to death. In comparison, it must be cost-effective to form light cavalry.
But he thought about it confidently, but there was no good candidate.
If nothing happens to Hou Junji, it can be handed over to Hou Junji.
Cheng Yaojin smiled and said: "Your Majesty, it is better to hand over all the remaining horses to the left leader guard. The old minister must train an elite cavalry for Your Majesty."
When Yu Chigong heard this, he became anxious, and quickly said: "Fart, why don't I give it to you."
Cheng Yaojin frowned, and said contemptuously, "Are you better than the old man in terms of riding skills?"
Yuchi Gong said disdainfully: "Then have you ever led cavalry?"
His riding skills are indeed better than Cheng Cheng, but he has an advantage.
Cheng Yaojin was a bandit before he returned to the Tang Dynasty, and later joined Wagang Village, and he had no cavalry to bring him.
Later, after taking refuge in Datang, they also led infantry.
However, Yu Chigong was different. After returning to the Tang Dynasty, he began to be Li Shimin's personal soldier. At that time, Li Shimin often led Xuanjiaqi to charge into battle.
At that time, he had dealt with the big and small matters of Xuanjiaqi, and he had more experience in training cavalry than Cheng Yaojin.
Cheng Yaojin said in disbelief: "Why didn't the old man lead the cavalry before? The left leader of the old man still has [-] cavalry."
Yuchi Gong said contemptuously, "Is this considered cavalry?"
Every army has some cavalry, which are specially used as horse scouts and for emergencies.
And the cavalry they are talking about is a purely cavalry unit.
Li Shimin stopped the two from arguing, looked at Lin Xuan and asked, "Lin Xuan, what do you think?"
Lin Xuan was watching the excitement, but when he heard Li Shimin's words, he secretly complained.
If one answer is not good, one of them will be offended.
Of course, it doesn't count as being offended. Li Shimin certainly couldn't make a decision just because of his words.
Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong must also know this, but they didn't get the desired result, so they will definitely come to deal with him.
"Your Majesty, I feel that soldiers with basic riding skills should be recruited from the guards to train the cavalry, so as to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible. After all, the situation on the grassland is unpredictable, and we must participate in battle at any time." Lin Xuan thought for a while and said.
Li Shimin nodded and said, "You're right, who should lead this cavalry?"
Lin Xuan said: "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. I don't know the abilities of the generals, so I dare not speak nonsense!"
Li Shimin glared at Lin Xuan, and seeing Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong staring at him, he felt a little headache.
"Let's talk about this matter after the horseshoe is nailed." Li Shimin said.
Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong looked at each other and said nothing.
……
After leaving the palace, Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong went home respectively.
Lin Xuan thought for a while, and came to the barracks again.
He sent someone to summon Xue Rengui and Cheng Chumo to his camp.
"See General!"
Lin Xuan waved his hand, asked them to sit down, and said, "Your Majesty has decreed that [-] war horses will be assigned to us."
Cheng Chumo stood up in shock, and asked in disbelief, "Really?"
Lin Xuan nodded with a smile. The cavalry was in ancient times, but it was equivalent to the air force in later generations.
Not only the combat power, but also the effect, are top-notch.
"So, we have all become cavalry?" Yuchi Baolin stared at the boss.
Lin Xuan nodded, looked at Xue Rengui, and said, "Rengui, few of us know how to train cavalry, and we will still need to rely on you for the training. Do you have confidence?"
It's not that he doesn't know how to train cavalry. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhao Yun had been in Baima Yicong.
Baima Yicong was one of the top cavalry in the Three Kingdoms period.
In Zhao Yun's inheritance, there are training methods for cavalry, and compared with the single-sided stirrups in the Three Kingdoms period, now there are double-sided stirrups, which makes cavalry training easier.
But he didn't want to tie himself to the barracks, busy training all day long.
Xue Rengui was a little hesitant. He had also learned cavalry training methods, but he had never used them in practice. He was worried that he would betray Lin Xuan's trust.
"General, my subordinates have never trained cavalry, but they are willing to give it a try!" Xue Rengui said.
Lin Xuan nodded with a smile and said, "I believe in you, just let go and do it."
He was not worried about Xue Rengui's ability, and he wrote down some methods in his mind about cavalry training and gave them to Xue Rengui.
"Yes!"
Xue Rengui was very touched by Lin Xuan's trust in him.
Lin Xuan looked at the others and said, "I think you all know something about the current situation in the grassland. When the time comes for you to make meritorious deeds, work hard!"
Li Shimin allocated one-fifth of the horses to them, and his expectations for them were very high.
As long as the battle on the grassland comes to an end, Datang may mobilize troops at any time, and they will definitely go out.
Seeing the excitement on the faces of Cheng Chumo and the others, he shook his head.
Calculated according to the time, even if troops were to be dispatched, it should be next year.
But he didn't intend to tell them now, let them get excited.
Thanks for the support of 51 Stone and Boss Zombie.
Thanks for the 51 stone reward.
