To the north of Zhangbei City, there is a vast grassland. The Mongols used to graze here, but after the Sunit people were driven away, it turned into a large military camp.
Two miles away, shouts of harmony could be heard coming from the military camp.
The fifth battalion of the Han army and the fifth battalion of the Mongolian army were almost all concentrated in this military camp. Located five miles west of the military camp was a newly built horse farm, where the Mongolian central guard camp trained.
The Mongolian Zhongwei Battalion is the most special existence. It is composed entirely of cavalry, half of which are Han and Mongolian. At first, there were many conflicts between the two sides due to various problems. Under Aqige's high-pressure policy, these problems were solved.
Nowadays, nearly a thousand cavalry can make simple cooperation, but the weapons they hold are somewhat different. The Mongolian soldiers seem not to be interested in the sabers made by Tie Moli, but still prefer the commonly used scimitars.
Before the time came, a middle-aged man walked towards the racecourse in a swaggering manner. Unsurprisingly, he was stopped by the sentry guarding the perimeter.
Since the establishment of the fifth battalion, Shi Hu has been responsible for the safety and security of the racecourse and the military camp. Shi Hu did his duty and almost ate and lived in the military camp. For this reason, Shiniang complained a lot.
"Who are you? This is an important military area. You are not allowed to enter without permission!"
The middle-aged man rolled his eyes upward and clasped his hands behind his back, "Let your person in charge come over and talk to me."
The man was dressed in blue robes and had a majestic appearance. The guards did not dare to neglect him, so they had to call Shi Hu over. Shi Hu looked at him for a while and could not see who the man was, so he couldn't help but frowned.
"Who are you? Didn't you know that no one is allowed to enter this place? Leave quickly, otherwise, I will catch you and whip you!"
The middle-aged man smiled and cupped his hands calmly, "Shi Baihu, we meet again."
"Huh?" Shi Hu was immediately puzzled and scratched his head vigorously, "Who are you? I don't know you."
"Shi Baihu, you are really a noble and forgetful person. Don't you remember, my subordinate Chen Yun? When Anzhuang Castle recruited soldiers, you were the one who recruited me. Later, I made some small achievements in Mantou Mountain and was ironed out.
He was transferred from the garrison to become a secret agent."
"Chen Yun?" Shi Hu looked at Chen Yun doubtfully. Did he really forget?
As a close confidant of Tie Mo, Shi Hu naturally knew about the spies. The spies were a team of people secretly created by Tie Mo and belonged to his personal bodyguards. Their main responsibilities were to check for potential safety hazards everywhere and to collect information from the outside world.
The other party could tell such a secret thing, so it seemed like it was one of our own.
Waving his hand to signal the guards to push away, Shi Hu's expression softened a lot, "Since you are a secret agent, what are you doing here?"
Chen Yun looked around, pulled Shi Hu away, and said mysteriously and seriously: "I don't dare to deceive Shi Baihu. This subordinate is here under orders. Tie Shouwei is worried that the Mongols in the racecourse are secretly doing something, so
Instruct your subordinates to come and check secretly. If there are no hidden dangers, that would be the best. If there are, we might as well make some preparations in advance."
"Hidden danger? It's not a problem, is it? Aqige still works very carefully..."
"Hey, no one can tell for sure. Many things have to be checked!"
"Do you have a token?"
"Um... Shi Baihu, you also know the identity of your subordinate. If he is carrying a token, once he is seen by the Mongolians at the racecourse and knows that Tie Shouwei is not at ease with them, wouldn't it cause trouble?
This time, when I came, my subordinate deliberately left the token behind."
Shi Hu patted his forehead and said with a wry smile: "Hey, look at my head, Xiao Tie is more thoughtful. I really can't bring a token when I come to the racecourse. Well, I will let you into the racecourse. If anyone asks,
You just said it was for measuring the school grounds."
"Okay, my subordinate understands and will definitely not cause trouble to Tie Shouwei."
Shi Hu nodded, gave a few instructions to the guard, and led Chen Yun into the racecourse.
After entering the racecourse, Shi Hu left Chen Yun wandering around alone and ran to the barracks to chat with Aqige.
Chen Yun held his hands behind his back and looked like a high-ranking official on patrol. He would take a careful look wherever he went, and he was especially interested in the cavalry trained by Han and Mongolia.
After standing on the side and observing for a long time, he discovered something strange about this cavalry. The training method was quite novel. The people and horses were integrated into one, advancing and retreating in unison. Both the people and the horses were wearing armor. The style looked a bit like the heavy cavalry of the past.
.However, the material of the armor is somewhat special, the style is similar to fish scales, and the weight is estimated to be much lighter than the previous pure iron armor.
After a while, someone shouted, and a team of about a hundred people was divided into ten rows. Each row was connected with iron ropes. The soldiers held sabers and slowly advanced. Slowly, the war horses picked up speed.
Although there is still some confusion, at least there is a relative distance between rows and a fixed distance between each row of horses.
Seeing this scene, Chen Yun's eyes widened. Huh, this is the legendary chain-locked horse, also known as the kidnapper horse. At first, Jin Wushu relied on this trick to almost dominate the world. Later, the Mongols improved Jin Wushu.
He used the tactics of kidnappers and horses, built an armored army, and used the armored army with light cavalry to kill the people of the Western Regions in blood.
Heavily mounted with iron armor and chain locks, this is a giant gold-swallowing beast. Unexpectedly, little Zhang Bei actually has such a cavalry.
The number of cavalrymen in the central guard camp of the racecourse is about 2,000, and there are more than 6,000 horses. A rough estimate is that it costs no less than 200,000 taels per year.
This Iron Guard has great ambitions.
...
Tie Mo had nothing to do, so he took Zhou Dingshan to the racecourse to observe the big killer weapon he had built with a lot of money.
When he arrived at the racecourse, before he saw Aqige, Shi Hu pulled him aside and muttered in a low voice. After listening to Shi Hu's narration, Tie Mo's eyes widened.
Brother Tiger, Brother Tiger, why did you believe that person’s lies?
"Dingshan, hurry up and find this Chen Yun."
Zhou Dingshan responded and quickly led his people to search the racecourse. To Zhou Dingshan's surprise, he found Chen Yun easily. When he arrived with his people, he was sitting under the big elm tree, crossing his legs and watching the cavalry drill.
Woolen cloth.
Chen Yun not only observed the cavalry in an upright manner, but also ate watermelon leisurely.
As for why Chen Yun was able to eat watermelon, the reason was very simple. He only said that he was Shi Hu's cousin, and someone flattered him and gave him watermelon.
Zhou Dingshan was completely confused. Who is this guy Chen Yun?
.....
In Aqige's barracks, facing Tie Mo's murderous gaze, Chen Yun remained neither humble nor overbearing, with a relaxed look on his face.
"Brother, who are you? If you don't tell the truth, Tie guarantees that you won't survive even half a cup of tea."
Before he finished speaking, Aqige had already put the waist knife on the table. According to Aqige's intention, people like this who spy on military affairs can be killed with one knife without any further questions.
