For two days and one night, Chu Qing's journey to the border city wall came to an end.
To summarize, on the first day, I saw off the warriors from the Ma Gong Camp. After waiting all night, the warriors came back with a group of sheep on their backs, without shooting a single arrow.
On the second day, I didn't even take a bite of the mutton-boiled meat. When the smoke started, I rode my horse to Dongguan, risking my life. I looked up and down the ladder for a long time and looked at Alleghen's big butt for half an hour.
When we returned to Wangyuan City, it was already nightfall. We had just returned to the Marshal's Mansion, and there was good news.
The exchange of silver notes was successful, and many aristocratic families in Xunyang Road have begun to send large amounts of copper coins to Wangyuan City.
The second batch of civilian supplies was delivered to Wangyuan City. They were not distributed, but sold at extremely low prices. People who were off work rushed to buy them all in less than a quarter of an hour.
Chu Qing is not here to distribute money, but to create a reservoir. In this reservoir, money is used to flow through various materials.
The war was not under Chu Qing's control, but things like the people's livelihood in Wangyuan City were what he originally wanted to improve. Now that there is progress, the smell of meat is once again wafting from the Marshal's Mansion.
Chu Qing asked the detectives to call all the little bosses back to eat some meat, drink some wine, and chat. After working for so long, it was time to relax.
As if returning to the time in the Qianqiying Yamen Office, everyone gathered in the front yard of the Marshal's Mansion and set up ovens and cauldrons.
Everyone was drinking wine and eating meat, and it was very lively. Even the cuttlefish was integrated into the small group.
Nangong Ping, who always liked to do some acrobatic arts, frequently toasted Cuiyu, trying to get some tips, but Cuiyu was very tight-lipped about the Mo family's mechanism skills.
While chatting, it was inevitable that they would talk about the prosperity of more than 300 people in Dongguan, and Tao Weiran sighed deeply.
"Liang Rong live scattered in the vast grassland. They gather when fighting and disperse when resting. They dare to massacre the people of Chang two miles away from Dongguan. It can be said that they are confident and hateful. It is especially hateful."
Xiao Yi drained the wine from the glass in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and said with a wry smile: "Border generals and soldiers, who doesn't want to eradicate Liang Rong, but as Lord Tao said, you can't find it, you can't catch it, this grassland,
It is Liangrong's natural barrier. Fewer people go there and lose their way. If they are unlucky, they get caught in an ambush. More people go there and consume too much food and grass. They often return empty-handed. If not for this, Liangrong would not be able to survive.
How dare you be so arrogant."
Chu Qing asked in confusion: "What about the wolf-catching army? Not to mention that back then, the wolf-catching army went deep into the grassland to fight to support the war. Even the Golden Wolf King Khan was afraid of being caught by the wolf-catching army."
Fu San definitely has the say in this matter.
The third brother puffed out his chest and said: "The number of the wolf-catching army is not large. The full force cannot be more than 10,000 people. The number of people who come out is at most 3,000 elites. The horses are sharp and the knives are sharp. The brothers are very skilled. They come and go like the wind. We have found a tribe."
, and then slaughtered them all. Before slaughtering, they asked about the locations of other tribes. If they had more troops, they would hide. If they had fewer troops, they would attack at night. They would rush through the grassland mansions. If they could kill, they would kill them. If they could not, they would burn them. They would burn grain and grass and destroy water sources.
When the wolf-catching army was mentioned, the Liang bandits lost their courage."
Chu Qing nodded, generally understanding.
The wolf-catching army will not shine in large-scale battles. It has a strong brand name and mainly relies on enemy lines. It also has a "smart" fighting method. It cuts off food and grass, destroys water sources, runs away when there are many people, and fights when there are few people.
The problem in the eyes of the border army is also the advantage of the wolf-catching army.
The grassland was so big that it was difficult for Liang Rong to catch the wolf-catching army that was constantly moving. It was obvious that a mere three thousand people had achieved such a great reputation.
Out of nowhere, Chu Qing said, "Why not reorganize the wolf-catching army?"
As soon as he said these words, the courtyard suddenly became quiet, and everyone had different expressions.
Those who had never been in the border army couldn't help but look at Tian Hailong and Xiao Yi.
Tian Luo and A Yi also had strange expressions on their faces, which were hard to explain for the moment.
The designation of the Wolf Catching Army was canceled for many reasons.
Some of the old soldiers were brought back to the capital by the Supreme Emperor and became imperial guards. Some of them were disarmed and returned to their fields. As for the remaining ones, they were in the frontier army, but they were assigned to various battalions and became veteran soldiers.
The reason why the wolf-catching army was disbanded was because there was no room for the heroes to be used. Although there was no written agreement between Dachang and Liangrong, the two sides shook hands and made peace. From then on, they became brothers and jointly developed and built the Zhongzhou Harmonious Village, etc., but in fact the two sides did start to exercise restraint.
, no large-scale battles took place.
The fighting method of the wolf-catching army is very bloody, just one word - slaughter!
As long as you find a lone tribe, the grass will be pulled out for you. During the reign of the Supreme Emperor, the two countries had begun tentative trade, and the combat method of the wolf-catching army posed a great safety hazard to the merchants.
The wolf-catching army killed the cold thieves, but the cold thieves couldn't catch them. In a hurry, they killed the merchants.
Just like before the Supreme Emperor came to power, something like this really happened, and then the wolf-catching army was impeached by several civil servants in the capital, and these civil servants were all related to the merchants who had left the customs.
Of course, the main reason is not that the border troops no longer want to capture the Wolf Army. Feng Luo and Ma Rujing all know the importance of capturing the Wolf Army. But Chu Wensheng has returned to Beijing. Who else can do it except Chu Wensheng?
The wolf-catching army can be suppressed.
Not even Feng Luo can lead this group of real veteran killers.
Because Chu Wensheng, the leader of the wolf-catching army, did an outstanding job. As long as he came out of the border, he would personally lead the team eight times out of ten. As the commander-in-chief of the border army, Feng Luo could not do this job. He wanted to do it, but his health was not good.
It's not allowed. You have to know that once you leave the customs and go deep into the hinterland of the grassland, it will take at least a month or two, and at most half a year.
To put it bluntly, the Wolf Catching Army is composed of soldiers, but their conduct style is very different from that of ordinary soldiers. There are not so many taboos, and they use all possible means to destroy the opponent's vitality.
Lord, I believe that if you can kill, you will not cripple someone, and if you can cripple someone, you will never let go.
Seeing Chu Qing looking at him, Tian Hailong smiled bitterly and said the first reason.
"Although the wolf-catching army goes deep into the grassland and then fights to support the war, it will consume a lot of money and food."
Chu Qing was dumbfounded, and so were everyone else.
Asking for money in front of Chu Qing?
Tian Hailong also suddenly realized that he had said something very idiotic, and his old face turned red: "Without a general, except General Chu, who is the chief general of the six camps, who dares to say that he can control the old pawn of Lang, let alone capture the old soldier?"
There are 8,461 people in the wolf army. Among the frontier troops now, less than two or three out of ten are unable to regroup to capture the wolf army."
"oh."
Chu Qing was slightly disappointed and continued drinking.
The Wolf Catching Army is an elite army created by Dad himself. It can be seen from the name. The others are called "battalions", but only the Wolf Catching Army is called "Army". They are not many in number, but they can form an army of their own.
What is an army? It has great autonomy. Once you are out of the gate, you can ignore the commander's orders.
How could such an elite team not be forgotten in history? What's more, the person who built this elite team was Chu Qing's own father.
Seeing that Chu Qing was a little unhappy, Tao Weiran quickly changed the topic and chatted about some interesting things in Wangyuan City, and the atmosphere became warm again.
Fu San, on the other hand, looked at Chu Qing's depressed look and whispered: "Master, if the wolf-catching army can be reorganized, you can suppress it."
"Take it." Chu Qing laughed dumbly: "Besides, there are only twenty-three tenths left, how to regroup."
The third brother looked like he was hesitating to speak. Finally, he sighed silently and poured Chu Qing a glass of wine. The two of them had their own concerns.
