Diao Kui smiled "hehe": "You can't do anything if you have money. Just build an army of five thousand people in Guangzhou by then. There are a lot of barbarians who can't afford to eat there. Let's catch some of them here." Just stand in line and make up the numbers. You two don’t know something. The sky is high and the emperor is far away in Guangzhou. No one can control it. As long as there is no large-scale rebellion, there will be a local emperor. ah."
Yu Kai finished reading the edict and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, it seems that Brother Diao has really put his effort into it. Then, there is only one last question, who are you going to pick? These five thousand people are not just picked. "
Diao Kui's eyes fell on Liu Yu in the distance, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Originally, I wanted to find a few soldiers who had served in the army to help pick some powerful characters, but now it's easier, Liu Yu This man who can kill a thousand swords came here today, and he must be trying to find some capable helpers for himself. We will choose whoever he picks, huh, we would rather miss a thousand than let this kid succeed!"
Yu Yue smiled and nodded, but his eyes fell on Liu Yi on the other side: "And Liu Yi, we will intercept whoever he wants. None of these Beifu soldiers are good. But the vision is not wrong. Today, nothing we say can make them get what they want."
The four people all showed a hint of evil smile: "As it should be!"
The first batch of more than two hundred prisoners were escorted by dozens of sword-wielding sergeants. They dragged the shackles on their hands and feet and were strung together by straw ropes tied around their waists. They slowly walked towards the stage. All the captives were in bad spirits. They had been exhausted physically and mentally for more than a month. It was impossible for the soldiers and civilians of the Eastern Jin Dynasty to give them a good look. It would be good if they had a mouthful of yellow rice. They were not like those in the Qin army before. The life of beef and mutton is like heaven and earth. Even the strongest warrior now looks tired and listless, with no trace of energy at all.
Liu Yu's eyes were fixed on the legs and feet of these people, watching them dragging forward, nodding slightly from time to time.
Wang Miaoyin on the side asked curiously: "Brother Yu, why don't you look at the bodies of these prisoners, why are you just looking at their feet?"
Liu Yu shook his head and said seriously: "The first thing a soldier should do is to look at the lower wall. The lower wall is the source of all power. Only when the lower wall is strong can one be able to take root on the battlefield and hold the horse tightly when riding. He is an excellent rider. He has been riding horses since he was a child. His legs are all splayed. Most of these prisoners of the Qin army are captured Han infantry. They ran slowly and fell behind and were caught. What I want are those Hu cavalry, these people can really be of great help on the battlefield in the future."
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "Why, slave, don't you want to be a heavy infantry? Why do you want to ride a horse? Are you ready to become a high-ranking general?"
Liu Yu waved his hand: "No, I will always be an infantryman, but the role of cavalry on the battlefield cannot be ignored. A powerful cavalry assault in groups is powerful enough to destroy everything. Our Beifu soldiers are mainly infantry, but absolutely We have to do without cavalry. If we have 20,000 cavalry this time, we can double the number of prisoners. To form a formation and fight frontally, we need heavy infantry, but to make a roundabout way and pursue a pursuit, we must have light cavalry. And for a frontal assault, we need both armor and cavalry. Pretending is even more powerful."
Liu Muzhi put away his smile and whispered: "This time we did not encounter the Murong family's armored cavalry, but during the next Northern Expedition, we may see the truly invincible Murong family's cavalry, send slaves , is this why you want to have a slave who is good at riding?"
Liu Yu nodded seriously: "You know me, fat man. This time in Feishui, we saw the elite troops of the Qin army, including high-powered infantry, chariot troops, and light cavalry assaults, but there was nothing like the legendary ones." Even though they are all equipped with armor and cavalry, I dare not say that if I encounter these terrible and legendary cavalry in the future, I will definitely win. Murong Lan can't use all his skills here. Those cavalry battles of hers The method includes the cavalry tactics of the Di tribe of Fu and Qin, but the armored cavalry has not been used even once."
Wang Miaoyin sneered and said: "I knew this woman had no good intentions. This time I almost hurt Brother Yu again. Brother Yu, you are so kind and kind-hearted. You don't distinguish between friends and foes. If we meet again on the battlefield in the future, When it comes to her, you must not be merciful anymore, otherwise, you will only harm yourself and Dajin!"
Liu Yu nodded seriously: "Definitely, the situation has changed this time. She and I are likely to officially become enemies. I made it clear to her last time that when we meet again, we will show no mercy and live and die according to our destiny. "
A smile flashed in the corner of Wang Miaoyin's eyes. She suddenly thought of something and became nervous. She grabbed Liu Yu's arm and said, "Brother Yu, tell me, is Murong Lan good at cavalry tactics?" Is it true, are you not even sure of defeating them? I heard, I heard that even the invincible General Huan Wenhuan was defeated by the iron cavalry of the Murong family. You, you’d better not face them. Fight. Otherwise, otherwise I'm afraid, I'm afraid..." When she said this, she became more and more anxious, and her voice was almost crying.
Liu Yu smiled slightly, grabbed Wang Miaoyin's hand, and said softly: "Okay, Miaoyin, don't be like this. I am a soldier. It is not up to me whether I want to fight or not. I have to obey orders. If Xuan Shuai says Under the command, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire, I can’t even frown for a moment, I have to go straight to it.”
Wang Miaoyin gritted her teeth: "Then I'll go tell my uncle and ask him not to let you be the vanguard. This way, you won't have to face the Murong family's cavalry."
Liu Yu put away his smile and said seriously: "If you want to go to the Northern Expedition, you will have to face a strong enemy. Don't worry. Only by knowing the enemy and knowing the enemy can you win every battle. I can only decide whether to fight with them after I understand the opponent's level and strength. Fight, if I am not sure, I will not take the initiative to attack. I came here today just to select some Xianbei cavalry who have served as armored cavalrymen. This time, I want them to really show their strength as armored cavalrymen. , I can figure out a way to crack it.”
Wang Miaoyin felt a little relieved and let go of her hand, but she still had lingering fears: "But if you promise me, you must not force it."
Liu Yu smiled slightly and said, "This is natural. Of course I have to cherish my life."
Liu Muzhi suddenly said: "Jinnu, the Diao brothers are back and seem to be staring at you. I think they want to steal your favorite person. What should I do?"
Liu Yu said with a smile: "I have noticed it a long time ago, and I just happened to take advantage of it!"
