These flying horses are the foundation for Liu Yu to form a large number of cavalry in the future.

Judging from the strength of the northern nomads in the past dynasties, as time goes by, whoever has more and more elite heavy cavalry will be able to dominate the grasslands.

Especially since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the climate in the northern grasslands has gradually become worse, and a large number of barbarians have moved south to attach themselves to the area near the Great Wall.

It is precisely because of the agricultural supplies in these areas that the Xianbei people headed by Murong, Duan Bu, and Tuoba are becoming stronger and stronger.

What Liu Yu needs most now is cavalry that can completely compete with these Xianbei people.

The skill of riding and shooting requires skills that have been practiced since childhood. For most Han people in the Central Plains, it is more suitable to fight in a formation and charge situation.

In this case, the advantages of the cavalry's equipment and weapons can be brought into full play.

With the improvement of these horses from the Western Regions, the impact and speed of the Han cavalry will be completely unafraid of the Xianbei people.

"Now Tuoba Pugen has entangled tens of thousands of people from Jiankun, Dingling and other tribes in Yinshan. They want to invade Daizhou. The enemy's cavalry is erratic and unpredictable. It may not be possible to capture Tuoba Pugen by relying only on Qiang Hu and Suotou."

Yu Wenzhao raised his beautiful eyebrows and said loudly to Liu Yu.

"Oh, what do you want to do?" Liu Yu looked at her with interest.

"In the crusade against Tuoba Pugen, why can't my father send troops to help?" Yu Wenzhao said.

When Liu Yu heard this, he was a little surprised.

The Tuoba tribe and the Yuwen tribe have been married for generations, and have been related to each other for hundreds of years.

It was okay to ask Yuwen Xianbei to help check and balance Murong's tribe in Youzhou. But if Yuwen Xianbei was asked to send troops to attack Tuoba Xianbei, Liu Yu would not be at ease at all.

"Aren't Tuoba and Yuwen married for generations? If we attack the Tuoba tribe, will your people sincerely send troops?" Liu Yu asked suspiciously.

After Yu Wenzhao heard this, he immediately laughed.

"Your Majesty, you may not know that there are many in-laws in the tribes on this grassland, but when it comes to robbing pastures and small entrances, no one will care about relatives."

When Liu Yu thought about it, he felt it made sense.

Not to mention the nomadic tribes living in harsh living conditions on the grasslands, even the noble clans and nobles who were pampered in the Central Plains would still fight to the death once they encountered a power struggle.

"The people from the Tuoba tribe are very cruel. Are the people from the Yuwen tribe willing to fight to the death?" Liu Yu said with some doubt.

Nowadays, Yuwen Xianbei's life is very comfortable. Not only does he dominate the eastern grasslands, but the Han army also has a steady stream of trade supplies from Youzhou. Together with Duan Bu Xianbei, Murong Xianbei has been firmly suppressed in Liaodong and unable to move.

Murong Xianbei, who wanted to grow stronger, had to turn east and continuously attack Goguryeo after annexing the forces of Dongyi Colonel Cui Ao.

In line with the principle that the east does not shine and the west shines, Goguryeo's wool has been pruned out of alopecia areata.

Under such circumstances, Liu Yu really doubted the combat effectiveness of the Yuwen Department.

After all, these nomadic tribes corrupted very quickly.

It's not more about fighting skills, but more about psychology.

"Your Majesty may not know yet, but now the noble leaders of the Yuwen Department have all moved into the city. Although they have a better life than they had before, not everyone can do so."

Just listen to Yu Wenzhao continue to speak.

"There are only a few cities, and everyone wants to be a master. The Murong tribe cannot be eliminated in a short while, so we can only go to the Tuoba tribe to the west to find them."

Liu Yu immediately understood what Yu Wenzhao meant.

Now that the strength of the Yuwen Department has greatly increased, although some people are already satisfied with the status quo, more people are already jealous and crazy.

They must find a place where they can get promoted and make a fortune.

"The Tuoba tribe has a vast territory. If it is occupied by your father again, it may not be a good thing."

Liu Yu's face couldn't help but darken a little.

Yu Wenzhao said this, which made him doubt Yu Wen Mogui's ambition.

Although Yu Wen Mogui doesn't seem to have any great talent or magnanimity, ambition is something that no one can control easily.

"Your Majesty has misunderstood. If our Yuwen Department sends troops, even if we occupy the territory, we will not be able to give it to my father." Yu Wenzhao suddenly laughed.

"To whom?" Liu Yu asked.

Yu Wenzhao raised his pretty face and said very proudly.

"Of course, give it to me!"

"For you?" Liu Yu didn't expect this.

"Yes, just give it to me. Before I got married, I had three thousand tribesmen. Although they were all given to my father, they are still mine." Yu Wenzhao said.

"Well, yes, this can be counted as your dowry." Liu Yu began to make calculations in his mind.

"Your Majesty, if I have a son in the future, I can let him inherit these tribes and lands. At that time, the emperor of the Central Plains and the vassal king of the grassland will be brothers, so why are we afraid of any border troubles?"

Yu Wenzhao said with a proud look on his face.

This wild girl from the Xianbei tribe has fully understood her status and strength after more than a year of palace life.

Even though she was favored by Liu Yu, her background had already destined that her children would hardly have a high status.

As for inheriting the throne in the future, that is something that I dare not even think about.

Not to mention that the Crown Prince Liu Zhi was not only the eldest son, but his maternal ancestor was born in the Wang family of Taiyuan and was destined not to be shaken by a child born to a Xianbei woman.

Therefore, Yu Wenzhao has already begun to plan for his future.

"I hope so."

Liu Yu smiled and said.

When he heard this, he felt extremely dissatisfied.

It is said that the butt determines the head. If anyone sits on the seat of the Lord of the Prairie, he will have to plan for the power under his butt.

All fathers, sons and brothers have to step aside.

"You can give it a try. If you can really pull out soldiers from the Yuwen Department, then I will be sure."

Although Liu Yu didn't believe in the deep brotherhood in the future, it seemed to be a good idea at this time.

"Great! Don't worry, Your Majesty. If I write a letter to my father, I can get at least 30,000 soldiers and horses to help. After Tuoba Pugen is eliminated, I will keep them all."

Obviously, Yu Wenzhao has already planned how to trick his father.

Yuwen's cake is almost reaching its limit. If these tribesmen follow the new master, they will get more generous rewards. At that time, even if Yuwen Mogui asks for soldiers and horses, they will not want to go back.

"Write another letter to Wang Chang, and the tribesmen will ask him to lead them as commander-in-chief. They will assemble in Daizhou first and let Ran Long command them. They must not act at will." Liu Yu immediately gave instructions.

"Ran Long? But I still want to take command in person!" Yu Wenzhao looked at Liu Yu with some resentment.

Liu Yu couldn't help but laugh a little angrily.

This Yu Wenzhao, after reading a few military books, actually wants to return to the grassland and be the 'chanyu'. It is really too naive.

"How could I let you do such a thing!"

"At most, after occupying Tuoba's old land, we can go there for a tour."

Liu Yu pinched Yu Wenzhao's red cheeks.

"Then what can I do in Yecheng, hundreds of miles away?" Yu Wenzhao asked angrily.

Seeing this, Liu couldn't help but smirked.

"Leave it to Ran Long and Wang Chang to eliminate Tuoba Pugen and leave it to Ran Long and Wang Chang. You have more important things to do."

"What's more important?" Yu Wenzhao's face was full of curiosity.

"Soon, everyone in the territory tribe will have one, but there is still a need for a son to inherit."

As soon as Yu Wenzhao heard these words, he felt a pair of hot hands touching his waist.

Jiangdong, Jiankang.

Inside the Jin Dynasty Palace.

Emperor Sima Rui was sitting in front of the desk with a sad look on his face.

The contents of a memorial on the desk had already made Sima Rui furious, but he did not dare to show it on his face.

"Your Majesty, Tao Kan is proud of his merits and has committed many crimes in Jiangzhou. Although he has some merits in exterminating the bandits this time, he has to distinguish rewards and punishments."

Wang Dao, the Minister of Records of the Jin Dynasty, was quietly advising from the side.

"Tao Kan comes from a humble background. If you say that others are domineering and arrogant, I will believe him. If you say that he takes credit and is arrogant, and has committed many crimes in Jiangzhou, do you think that your majesty is a fool?"

As soon as Director Wang finished speaking, the attendant Liu Wei said angrily.

"This has already happened. What's the point of talking about right and wrong?"

Seeing Liu Wei's angry look, Diao Xie, who was close to him, stretched out his hand and pulled Liu Wei's sleeve to ask him to restrain himself.

"If you have any doubts about Jiangzhou matters, your Majesty will make your own decision." Director Wang felt a little embarrassed.

Regarding this matter, several people in the hall looked at Emperor Sima Rui.

Seeing this, Emperor Sima Rui had to cheer up and said.

"Although Tao Kan, the governor of Jiangzhou, has made great achievements in defeating the bandits, since the general Wang Dun said that he has done something illegal, he must be investigated. Let's first issue an edict to remove Tao Kan from his position as governor of Jiangzhou and let him return to Jiankang first. Be on standby."

"Your Majesty, no!"

Liu Wei, who had just been promoted to the rank of servant, said loudly.

Seeing this, Sima Rui could only pretend to not see or hear.

Wang Dao, the official in charge of recording affairs, finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

It's very difficult for him to be caught in the middle.

"Your Majesty is wise, I will arrange this immediately!"

Director Wang let out a long breath and ran away in a hurry.

After Wang Guan went out, Liu Wei slammed the cardboard in his hand to the ground.

"It's unbearable!"

"Your Majesty, Wang Dun is so domineering and cannot be tolerated any longer."

Liu Wei said again.

It turned out that Wang Dun of Jingzhou and Tao Kan, the governor of Jiangzhou, jointly sent troops to quell the rogue bandits in Jiangzhou and Xiangzhou.

However, when gathering in Jiangzhou, Jingzhou Mu Wang Dun ordered people to take over all the prisoners and seizures in the name of the general. He also deprived Jiangzhou Governor Tao Kan of his military power and replaced Tao with his brother Wang Yi. Kan was the governor of Jiangzhou.
