Cao Cao liked cavalry and valued cavalry. This is not a strange thing.

In Liu Xuan's memory, even though Cao Cao later became the most powerful official in the Han Dynasty, controlling the court, and holding the emperor to command the princes, there was one achievement that the people who disliked Cao Cao the most could not ignore it - Cao Cao sat in the north

Half of the country has placed most of its troops in border towns to guard against foreigners.

Even Cao Cao's own juniors and even his own children would be sent to border towns to learn more about the threats posed by foreign nations to the Central Plains.

From this point of view, Cao Cao deserves the title of Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty. When he was alive, even the heirs who inherited his business also placed half of Wei's troops in border towns. From the founding of Wei to its demise, he was never called

Foreign soldiers and horses entered the Central Plains.

When dealing with foreign tribes, cavalry is an indispensable and important unit - the northern land is flat, and the Han Dynasty has a vast territory. Without cavalry, a highly mobile unit, many battles would be difficult to fight.

Liu Xuan remembered that Cao Cao not only valued cavalry, but even personally formed an elite cavalry unit called the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. This troop became the most powerful and prestigious unit in Cao Wei, and even many people who opposed Cao Cao were

I have a headache how to beware of this powerful cavalry.

This cavalry is not mentioned in the novel - in fact, there is almost no emphasis on any special soldiers and horses in the novel, only a few are briefly mentioned. The name of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is only slightly mentioned in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Liu Xuan was originally thinking about whether to create the tiger and leopard cavalry first. Unexpectedly, after seeing Lu Bu's Bingzhou cavalry, Cao Cao actually offered to form an elite cavalry. The cavalry formed by Cao Cao, except for the tiger and leopard cavalry,

What else could there be?

However, if the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is really formed this time, I'm afraid it will be very different from the original 'one'. Because the original Tiger and Leopard Cavalry existed more as a deterrent force, and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry's

He is the most elite cavalry of Cao Wei, but his record is pitiful: there are only a few strokes, which is quite inconsistent with his status.

But now Cao Cao has made it clear that he will use this elite cavalry as the main support to regain the northwest counties, so the battles are probably going to be one after another - now the northwest is in Dong Zhuo's hands, it seems that killing Dong Zhuo in the northwest can

put down.

But Liu Xuan knew that even if he killed Dong Zhuo, the northwest would not be in his hands. Not to mention others, Dong Zhuo had several generals: Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou and his son-in-law Niu Fu.

Soldiers and horses? Without the restraint of Dong Zhuo, these people will immediately raise the banner and become the princes of the land. Although he has the name of emperor, he wants to make them bow and submit with his title... Even if you think about it with your buttocks, you will know

This is impossible.

"We must fight, not to mention that we have worked so hard to manage so many soldiers. If we don't go to the battlefield to hone our skills, we won't be able to train truly strong soldiers."

Liu Xuan was thinking about this along the way: "As for the establishment of elite cavalry as Meng De said...the capital does not lack good horses, but it is difficult to find soldiers who are good at horse fighting and generals who can lead the troops!"

The formation of the cavalry does not happen overnight. Not to mention the sources of troops, he could not find the general who commanded the troops for a while. Cao Cao said that he sent his confidants to secretly plan the formation, but how many confidants does he have now? Besides Cao Cao, how many confidants do he have?

No one else.

"It would be very suitable if we could bring Zhang Liao under Lu Bu's tent!"

Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan were just ordinary military commanders under Lu Bu at this time, and they did not show anything special. However, Liu Xuan knew about his future achievements, and Zhang Liao had been in Bingzhou for a long time and was familiar with cavalry tactics. If he could command him, he would

There is no need to worry about the cavalry's combat effectiveness.

"But... if we want Zhang Liao to do this now, isn't it better to rush to give Dong Zhuo an excuse? We have to wait a while."

Nowadays, his relationship with Dong Zhuo is considered to be on the same level. They go their separate ways, and they can still maintain superficial etiquette when they meet. Of course, everyone knows it in private, so there is no need to elaborate.

As for Dong Zhuo's support in coming to power, in addition to demonstrating his power by deposing the emperor, another reason was that he was a commoner.

If a concubine is born as a concubine and inherits the family business, he will be secretly eliminated in the wealthy families. If the emperor is born as a concubine, you may not know what the rich and powerful families will say in private!

In addition, the status of the nobles in the world was extremely high at this time. If the royal family did not win the hearts of the nobles, it would be equivalent to losing the world. Dong Zhuo wanted to use this method to attack the majesty of the royal family, which would make it easier for him to control the power of the court - many in the court

Ministers are representatives of many wealthy families. If these people are not close enough to the emperor, they will naturally not help the emperor deal with him.

In fact, Dong Zhuo wanted to support Liu Xie more, because he was younger and could more easily control the court. However, Liu Xie was weak and sick, and there was no good excuse to support him in power - even an arrogant Dong Zhuo knew how useless he was.

He needs an excuse that can be accepted by the ministers, otherwise he will not be able to do it at all.

Another thing Liu Xuan didn't know was that ever since Dong Zhuo learned that Liu Xuan could defeat Hua Xiong head-on, he felt that Liu Xuan, the prince, was obsessed with martial arts, and that such a person could not be good at conspiracy - and

When you are an emperor, the most important thing you need to master is conspiracy. Otherwise, how can you see through the methods of the ministers? How can you balance the forces of all parties in the chaotic court, and even fight for your own interests and drive the ministers to do things for you?

After all, Liu Xuan is not even twenty years old. No matter how talented a young man is, he cannot be good at everything: if he is good at one thing, he will not be good at other things or even not understand them at all.

It's a pity that Dong Zhuo will never realize that Liu Xuan is not just twenty years old at all. Even if he didn't participate in these things when he jointly established the empire with those people, he still saw some of them. Plus Lingtai Qingming

, I have a quick mind and can still do some basic things well, and with Cao Cao helping me, it is enough for now.

And if all Liu Xuan's plans go smoothly, then he won't need to worry about these things in the future, and things like court struggles will not appear in the dynasty he controls - he only needs the ministers to follow his instructions

Keep moving forward towards the stated goal, that's all.

Sitting behind the desk, Liu Xuan held an ancient scroll and seemed to be reading. In fact, he was still thinking about the current situation in the court and what he would do next.

The book in my hand is just a pretense for the person in front of me to read.

Xun Yu stood by respectfully. Because the emperor read a book and asked him to get pens, inks and other things, he, the palace guard, also had to accompany him. When the emperor stopped reading, he had to remove these things before he could go back to rest.

——As a close minister of the emperor, although you can get closer to the emperor, the job is not easy. Even your work and rest time are based on the emperor.

Liu Xuan flipped through the scroll made of bamboo slips and raised his eyes to look at Xun Yu. This man had been standing there for half an hour, still steady and without squinting. This concentration alone was enough to make people look at him.

Putting down the scroll in his hand, Liu Xuan suddenly said to Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, what do you think the situation in the world is like today?"

As soon as Liu Xuan said these words, he noticed that although Xun Yu looked calm, his whole body still shook very covertly. If he hadn't had extraordinary eyesight, he might not have been able to see it in the dim light.

It was long past bedtime, but if the emperor didn't sleep, who could stop him? Not only Xun Yu was waiting nearby, but Cao Bao was also standing at the door, so that Liu Xuan could summon him at any time.

Xun Yu turned to face Liu Xuan, cupped his hands and said, "I wonder what your Majesty is asking about?"

Liu Xuan smiled and took a piece of white paper from his side - it was said to be white paper, but it was still a little yellowish, but at this time it was already the best paper. If he were not the emperor, he would not be able to

Just take out this big one.

"Come play a game with me!"

Although he had ascended the throne and became the emperor, he still kept talking about "what do I do", which was mostly used in edicts. On weekdays, it was still "what do I do, what do I do" - not to mention that the emperor of the Han Dynasty was not that big in nature.

In the final analysis, it all lies with the great ancestor Liu Bang. This rogue emperor even referred to me as "I" throughout his edicts.

"Your Majesty, tomorrow is the day when Lady Cai Shangshu enters the palace to marry Your Majesty, so it is best to rest early."

Xun Yu didn't understand why the new emperor, who had always behaved normally, was so abnormal today? He didn't sleep in the middle of the night and said he wanted to play games? Could it be that he was nervous because he was getting married tomorrow?

If this is the case, Xun Yu becomes even less optimistic about the emperor - the world is in chaos, all heroes are rising together, and the imperial court has long lost control over the local area, but the emperor is still wasting his efforts on the matter of a woman, and at this time he is still

What game do you want to play?

"Is it true that the Han Dynasty is irreversible?"

Xun Yu was a son of an aristocratic family, but he still had some affection for the Han Dynasty. Of course, it may also be because the Xun family was a vested interest in the Han Dynasty. They did not want the Han Dynasty to perish, because that would mean new turmoil.

With re-dividing forces, no one is sure whether the Xun family can once again find the right choice.

In other words, the Xun family was loyal to the Han Dynasty to a certain extent, and Xun Yu, the new generation of Xun family's talents, may be more loyal than those elders - young people still have some enthusiasm.

Liu Xuan did not respond. He just picked up the brush and drew on the white paper for a while. However, within a moment, a specious map appeared in front of the two of them.

Then he circled a piece in the middle with his brush: "If there are many princes on this map, and Ruowenruo is one of the princes, how can he become the master of the world?"

Xun Yu was startled by Liu Xuan's words. He even wondered if the new king didn't like him and wanted to find a reason to kill him? But when his peripheral vision glanced at the specious picture,

After being placed on the map, a sudden inspiration flashed in my heart, and I even exclaimed involuntarily.

"Huh? This is..."
