Yang Yuan glanced at Liu Heng cautiously and did not dare to speak.
He could feel that Liu Heng attached great importance to Da Yuan Island, but he didn't think that an island so far to the south could be very important.
After a long while, Liu Heng raised his head and said: "Let's not talk about the matter of Da Yuan Island. The profits from sea trade will still be retained for Da Yuan Island. The lack of money for the expansion of the military camp will be left to Lingqiu. Method."
"Yes." Yang Yuan responded.
As the first subordinate who followed Liu Heng, he knew that no one could change anything Liu Heng decided.
Liu Heng asked again: "How is the training of the armored cavalry battalion on the grassland?"
"Compared with the cuirassiers in terms of discipline, they are a little worse than the cuirassiers, but in terms of strength, they are not weaker than the cuirassiers. As long as they are equipped with our cuirass, they can immediately form combat effectiveness." Yang Yuan replied.
Liu Heng said with a smile: "The armored cavalry battalion is mainly composed of horse bandits on the grassland. It is normal that the discipline is not as good as that of the cuirassiers. As long as it does not violate military orders and military regulations, the management can be a little looser. However, this must be done under the armored cavalry." It can only be done after the cavalry battalion is officially formed into an army."
"Ma Yingzheng has killed fifty-eight horse bandits who violated military orders, not counting the horse bandits he killed earlier who were unwilling to join our Tiger Flag." Yang Yuan said, "After Ma Yingzheng's cleanup, The horse bandits have almost become honest and know how to obey military orders."
Liu Heng said with a smile: "These horse bandits want to join our Tiger Flag and enjoy the benefits brought by the Tiger Flag, but they don't want to obey the orders of the Tiger Flag. How can there be such a good thing in this world?"
"That's what the boss said." Yang Yuan said, "Although they killed a lot of people, these horse bandits have become more honest and dare not disobey orders anymore. I believe it won't be long before they will completely become our Tiger Flag." cavalry."
Liu Heng rubbed his chin and thought for a while, then said: "These horse bandits have been training for such a long time, and they must see the results. Otherwise, if they continue to train, the wild nature in these horse bandits will be easily worn away."
"The boss means..." Yang Yuan looked at Liu Heng.
Liu Heng said to Zhao Wu: "In the name of the Military and Political Department, give an order to the armored cavalry battalion to have Ma Yunjiu and Tu La prepare for battle at any time."
"Yes." Zhao Wu agreed.
Yang Yuan said: "Basically all the horse bandits on the Tumut grassland have joined our armored cavalry battalion. It is difficult to find horse bandits to train the armored cavalry battalion."
"Who said we should take action against the horse bandits!" Liu Heng said with a sneer on his face, "There are several tribes in Tumut who are making small moves in private. They have taken action against our caravan several times. This time it is just right to take action on them."
Yang Yuan said: "The master wants to start a war with Tumote?"
Liu Heng shook his head and said: "Send someone to inform Huang Hong and ask him to select a tribe with moderate strength and leave it to our armored cavalry battalion for training. This can also be regarded as a warning to those unstable Taijis in Tumut and let them know Come on, I, Tiger Flag, am not a lamb to the slaughter like the Fan family who has no power to fight back."
"Yes, my subordinate will send someone to send the news to the grassland." Yang Yuan said.
Liu Heng nodded.
Yang Yuan turned around and left the signing room.
……………………
On the grassland, a Ming Dynasty cavalry consisting of seven or eight people bypassed the Dahei River and came all the way to Bansheng City.
Bansheng City is the property of Su Nang. The wealth left by Sanniangzi since her time is all in this Bansheng City.
"Excuse me, this general, please tell me that someone from Zhangjiakou wants to see General Wo Lunkuo." A middle-aged man in the cavalry clasped his fists at a Mongolian armored cavalry stationed outside the residence.
Senaban looked at the Ming people in front of him up and down, and said in blunt Chinese: "I know you, you are a businessman from the Ming Dynasty."
"Yes, I am the proprietor of Fan Ji Trading Company, Fan Yongdou. General, please go in and report." Fan Yongdou clasped his fists.
"You wait here." Senaban turned and entered the courtyard.
After a short time, Senaban walked out of the yard, looked at Fan Yongdou in front of him and said, "My general promised to see you, but you can only go in alone."
As he spoke, he glanced at the other Ming people following Fan Yongdou.
"General Lao will lead the way." Fan Yongdou made an inviting gesture towards Senaban.
Compared with Qingcheng, Bansheng City is more prosperous. Many Han merchants live in Bansheng City, especially those big Han merchants who are famous on the grassland, all live in Bansheng City.
On the contrary, there were not many Han merchants in Qingcheng. It was not until Huziqi opened shops in Qingcheng that some Han merchants who were not too strong were attracted to Qingcheng.
There are still some yurts in Qingcheng City, but in Bansheng City, they are all courtyards and houses, and all yurts are outside the city.
Entering the courtyard, Senaban led the way, and Fan Yongdou followed him.
The courtyard of Wo Lunkuo is not big. There is a courtyard in the front and several houses in the back.
Senaban took Fan Yongdou into one of the rooms.
"General, bring Fan Yongdou."
Wo Lunkuo waved his hand towards Senaban and said, "Okay, go down!"
"Yes." Senaban bowed and retreated from the room.
Fan Yongdou hugged Wo Lunkuo, who was sitting on the leather cushion, and said with a smile, "I have seen General Wo Lunkuo."
"Fan Yongdou, if you still dare to come to Bansheng City, you are not afraid that I will capture you now and take you outside the city and drag you to death on the grassland with a horse." Wo Lunkuo glanced at Fan Yongdou standing in the house.
Fan Yongdou said with a smile: "The general will not kill me. If he really wanted to kill me, he would not let me enter the house. He could have arranged for someone to arrest me when I was outside."
"Why are you so sure that I won't kill you?" Wo Lunkuo narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Don't forget, you promised me before about Taiji. There is absolutely no way. Based on this alone, I have a reason. Kill you."
"Even so, General, you still let me in instead of letting people arrest me, which shows that General, you don't want to kill me." Fan Yongdou said calmly.
"You are wrong." Wo Lunkuo said, "It's not that I don't want to kill you, but Taiji thinks that you are still of some use, so he spares your life as a Han dog."
"The grassroots thank Su Nang Taiji for not killing him." Fan Yongdou cupped his fists, placed them on his right shoulder and cupped his hands.
Wo Lunkuo grabbed a piece of mutton on the table, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed a few mouthfuls and swallowed it, and asked in a calm tone: "What do you want to do when you come to see me this time?"
Fan Yongdou bowed and said, "I hope the general can take me to see Su Nang Taiji."
"Impossible." Wo Lunkuo refused without even thinking.
Fan Yongdou frowned and said, "This shouldn't be difficult for the general."
Wo Lunkuo curled his lips and said: "I'm afraid you have forgotten that it was you who wanted to cooperate with my family Taiji, and you also said that there was a Xuji company backed by the governor of Datong, which would soon replace the Tiger Flag, but in the past For such a long time, the governor of Datong has been replaced. Where is the Xu family business you mentioned? Not even a truck of goods has been delivered. For this, my Taiji is very angry. "
"I'm here this time because of Xu Ji's matter." Fan Yongdou said.
Wo Lunkuo put down the dagger in his hand, looked at Fan Yongdou, and said, "So Xu Ji's caravan has come to the grassland?"
"We haven't reached the grassland yet." Fan Yongdou shook his head.
Wo Lunkuo's face sank and he said: "Then there is nothing more to say. You can go. When will a Ming caravan outside the Tiger Flag arrive on the grassland, you are looking for me."
