Heavy armored cavalry.
Of course it is also the top priority.
Even now, Wu Nian can clearly recall the joy he felt when he got seven or eight hundred war horses. No, just ecstasy.
At that time, he decided to establish a small heavy armored cavalry. When there are more war horses in the future, we can expand the army calmly.
Wu Nian has a grand plan in his mind. Massive heavily armored cavalry.
But what a pity.
In this world, it’s not enough to just have plans; there must also be people who execute the plans.
Wu Nian, Zhang Jin, and Wei Ru all studied cavalry, but they were not proficient in it. It is not suitable to command cavalry.
This heavy armored cavalry needs its own Bole.
Wu Nian recruited some talents to serve as the hundred households and general banners of this heavy armored cavalry. As for the soldiers, many of them were made from scratch.
Although Liaodong produces horses, it is a mountainous area and there are few people who are good at riding horses.
Wu Nian also provided this heavy armored cavalry with good logistics. A small force of six hundred households, all in iron armor.
The cavalry do not need to serve the war horses themselves. They have specialized personnel to manage and serve the war horses.
Wu Nian also visited several times and found that the soldiers of those six hundred households were well trained.
It looks promising.
But there was no powerful cavalry general suppressing them. These six hundred households were like six snake heads, going in different directions.
No one is convinced by the other, and there is constant friction.
The threat comes from within.
"I got it. Go down and get ready to protect yourself. I'll go over and take a look." Wu Nian thought of this, raised his hands and rubbed his temples, sighing.
"yes."
The soldier responded, turned around and went down.
Wu Nian bent down and ate the remaining lotus seed soup. While recalling the information of six hundred households in his mind.
These six people have different origins, but they all aim to fight against the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. He is good at riding, shooting, fighting, and leading troops. He is a very suitable person to lead cavalry.
The abilities are almost the same.
Let's say who is stronger.
One is named Liu Yun and the other is named Qian Ruijun.
Liu Yun is twenty-eight years old this year and was born into a rich man in Liaodong. My own martial arts skills were learned from the hands of the nurse, and now I am already better than my master. Good at horses.
His ability to run the army was systematically studied by the teacher and some veteran officers.
Qian Ruijun is thirty-two years old this year.
He is much simpler, coming from a military background.
Those whose families have been officials for generations, before the fall of Liaodong, they worshiped the general banner. Make good use of a big sword and be familiar with the art of war passed down from your family.
These two people, plus the other four, all want to be Qianhu and command this group of heavy armored cavalry.
But in Wu Nian's opinion, even Liu Yun and Qian Ruijun were a little worse. He hoped to get it right in one step and find an extremely powerful cavalry commander to command the heavy armored cavalry.
But what a pity.
Bole is always there, but a thousand-mile horse is not always there.
"As the saying goes, only when their names are determined can they be twisted into a rope and train the cavalry. If their names are not determined, they will be scattered. The contradictions will become more and more serious."
Wu Nian sighed, picked up the bowl in his hand, drank the lotus seed soup clean, picked up the handkerchief next to him and wiped his mouth, strode out of the pavilion, changed into a summer jacket, and put on He grabbed his sword, led his soldiers, and headed toward the camp where the heavy armored cavalry was.
Cavalry training requires a large space.
As for the large area of Nine Castles, there are many mountains and little flat land. Wu Nian spent a lot of time training his cavalry.
at last. He solved this problem by directly moving a village in a large valley and leveling the original fertile farmland into flat ground.
Thanks to Wu Nian for doing this, the people were fully compensated. Otherwise there will definitely be trouble.
How could the people easily abandon their homeland where they have lived for generations?
It is precisely because so much thought has been put into it that we have such great expectations. Wu Nian is a little angry now.
"Da da da!!!" on the road leading to the valley camp. Wu Nian led three groups of soldiers and rode forward on their horses.
After a while, the front suddenly became clear. A huge valley came into view. The outer perimeter of the valley is protected by a wooden fence.
Inside the camp.
There are military camps, stables, officials responsible for taking care of the war horses, wooden houses where the grooms live, and the largest horse farm.
There were no horses, grooms, or officials on the racecourse. There were only six to seven hundred strong soldiers standing on the racecourse. Two hundred of them seemed to be confronting each other, and others seemed to be fighting.
The smell of gunpowder is very strong.
As the sound of horse hooves sounded, everyone followed the sound and recognized Wu Nian. Suddenly the soldiers did not dare to make any more mistakes and all calmed down.
Under the leadership of their respective households, they lined up to welcome Wu Nian.
"Hey!!" Wu Nian pulled the reins of the horse and stopped the horse beautifully. He raised his head and looked at these problem children with a calm expression.
"General."
Six hundred households stood at the front, leading their subordinates to bow to Wu Nian.
"Six of you. Whose soldiers are making trouble?" Wu Nian asked condescendingly without dismounting.
"Report to the general. The last general is incompetent." A strong man with a curly beard stood up, bent down and said.
"General." A man with a heroic appearance also stood up, bending over and lowering his head.
The man with the beard on his face is Qian Ruijun.
The heroic man is Liu Yun.
"As expected." Wu Nian sighed inwardly.
"What's going on?" Wu Nian's face remained calm, but his eyes suddenly became sharp.
"Some soldiers disagreed and started fighting." Qian Ruijun lowered his head and said.
Liu Yun said nothing.
"The fighting soldiers, their immediate superiors, the small flag, the chief flag, and the two of you will all be exposed to the sun for an hour."
"Someone. Get water. Give them water anytime."
Wu Nian gave the order simply.
"yes."
Liu Yun and Qian Ruijun dislike each other, but they both obey Wu Nian absolutely. He cupped his fists in response and led the troublemaking soldiers to the corner. Just standing in line under the bright sun.
Wu Nian then got off his horse and asked someone to fetch an umbrella cover and a small bench. Sitting under the umbrella, staring at these idiots.
Everyone else went back to their tents.
"Da da da." There was a sound of footsteps, and Wu Nian turned around to look. It was another Baihu named Ding Chong.
"General. Please forgive me for speaking bluntly. We need a master from a thousand households." Ding Zhong came to Wu Nian's side, sat cross-legged on the ground, and said sincerely.
"Which one of you six do Ding Baihu think is suitable?" Wu Nian asked with a flash of light in his eyes.
"It's not suitable." Ding Zhong shook his head and said helplessly.
Wu Nian glanced at Ding Zhong in surprise. He was really self-aware.
"There's no way. I can't conjure up a person out of thin air. If it's not suitable, I have to choose someone." Wu Nian sighed and said.
Ding Zhong hesitated for a moment, then bent down sincerely and said: "General. I know that one person can take on important tasks."
"But this person has a bad temper."
