Shanhaiguan.

When Xiao Ming arranged the privateer plan, his order to attack the barbarians had arrived here.

When Lei Ming read the military order from Qingzhou, he suddenly laughed.

A group of generals of Guan Ning's iron cavalry surrounded him with incomprehensible expressions, and a school lieutenant asked: "What is it that makes Rudu Governor so happy."

Lei Ming carefully put away the military order with the seal of King Qi, and said: "The chief governor said, Your Highness will let us go out and kill the spirit of the barbarians."

"It's finally going to fight, hehe, our hands are itchy."

"That's right, now the barbarians are dishonest, it's time to give them a bit of color."

"Clean them up, let them understand how powerful Guan Ning is." The generals' voices were louder than each.

Lei Ming stretched out his hand to signal the generals to be quiet. He said: "It has been five days since this order was issued, but according to the captain, this time it only needs to be modest. You can't fight the barbarians to death. Just retreat if you take advantage."

The generals who were excited just now fainted, and one of the generals said, "It turns out that it's not going to continue to fight north."

"It's because you think too much. If you continue to fight north, the Qingzhou Army will be stationed in Shanhaiguan soon."

"Who said that only the Qingzhou Army can fight over us? Were Youzhou Army trained for nothing?"

"Training is training, but our Youzhou Army has only 3,000 muskets. This is not enough."

The generals talked again, and finally everyone looked at Thunder, "Captain, the equipment of our Youzhou Army is too poor, can you mention it to the Captain, otherwise how we will fight the barbarians."

Lei Ming suddenly became a little embarrassed. He has raised this question to Qingzhou more than once, but they have only received 3,000 musketeers during this time, but now the Youzhou Army has only trained 20,000 musketeers after careful selection. People, this doesn't include Guan Ning's iron horse who has expanded to two people.

"I can't say that. Didn't Qingzhou just send us 10,000 war horses a few days ago? These war horses are all from the fief of King Zhao. It can be seen that His Royal Highness still treats us Youzhou Army preferentially." Lei Ming explained that he was most afraid of The generals want to equip him.

The general immediately felt that it made sense. The 20,000 horses were only given to Youzhou Army and half of it. Because of this, Guanning's iron cavalry was expanded to 20,000.

After clearing his throat, the thunderous expression became serious, and he said: "Now we must immediately execute the order from Qingzhou. Now you immediately gather people and horses to ambush outside the city. Once the barbarian scouts come to investigate, kill them immediately."

"Yes." The generals responded in unison.

After the order was given, a group of generals left one after another. After a while, a bell suddenly rang in Shanhaiguan, and the cavalry in the barracks quickly assembled.

Then they set off outside the customs to implement the plan of attack on the barbarian scouts.

This time Thunder did not lead his troops. At this time, he stood on the wall of Shanhaiguan and watched the five thousand cavalry disappear on the vast grassland.

Behind him, the city wall that was destroyed in the war has been repaired, and it has expanded and thickened a lot compared to before.

Now Shanhaiguan is not only difficult to break through the north side, but also difficult to break through the weak southern part.

The granary in Shanhaiguan has now stored food for three years, which makes the soldiers in Shanhaiguan no longer worry about being hungry.

At the same time, the soldiers can also receive monthly payment, which makes the soldiers' enthusiasm more and more high, but this is only one of the reasons, the deeper reason is that Xiao Ming promised them, like Youzhou, they took an inch of land. , This future land will be distributed to soldiers.

And just as Xiao Ming promised, after regaining Youzhou, they allocated land to the soldiers of Youzhou, which were all fertile fields near Youzhou.

This alone made the soldiers very grateful to King Qi, and because of this, the soldiers and generals were looking forward to fighting, because it is said that there is a very vast land outside Shanhaiguan.

Even if you don't farm, you can make a lot of money by selling these land to merchants.

Watching the soldiers leave and thundering down the city wall, he still had to think about building a bastion one hundred miles away from Shanhaiguan.

In the evening, the cavalry who had been out of the city for a day turned back.

The purpose of the cavalry going out of the city this time is to kill the scouts and create contradictions. This is just a very simple task for Guan Ning cavalry.

After all, his thunderous personality would send soldiers to harass the barbarian tribe even if he was fine. This piece is now familiar to him, so he even drew a map specially for this.

The map shows the location of various terrains and barbarians.

"Captain, we ambush a team of scouts outside the city. According to your instructions, we deliberately let one go back and report the letter."

"Well, good job." Lei Ming nodded in satisfaction.

Although he didn't understand the purpose of Xiao Ming's order, for them, all he needed was to obey the order.

When he was preparing to send the report back to Qingzhou, a large number of barbarian cavalry appeared sixty miles northwest of Shanhaiguan.

The headed person is not someone else, but Guertai, the head of the Huyantuo tribe who once lived in Youzhou.

"The head of the flag, it is here that we encountered an ambush." ​​The escaped scout said to Gurtai.

Looking at the corpses of hundreds of barbarian soldiers on the ground, Gultai's eyes seemed to be able to eject flames.

"Thunder~lightnovelpub.net~You are deceiving too much." Gurtai said angrily. He now knows that the general in Shanhaiguan is Thunder.

Because since Shanhaiguan was lost, this Guanning cavalry has always entered the grassland every three to five to harass the tribes on the grassland. During this period, they and Guanning cavalry had each other's victories.

It's just that this mutual victory and defeat not only didn't make them feel balanced, on the contrary, they became more worried, because in their opinion, Guan Ning Tieqi grew too fast.

No cavalry can fight their cavalry on the grassland before.

"Head of the flag, should we continue to be patient? If this continues, our tribe will not be able to live here at all." said a ten thousand chief.

Gurtai looked in the direction of Shanhaiguan, and said: "Coward, what's terrible, Dataiji said that the emperor of Dayu Kingdom is going to die soon. When he dies, Dayu Kingdom will definitely be in chaos. Now Dayu Kingdom King Liang had already secretly sent someone to see the Khan, to call the Khan a minister, and recognized Khan as his father, just waiting for the great Yu Kingdom to become chaotic, so that they could use our cavalry to seize the throne. Kill King Liang and the second prince, this big Yu country belongs to us."

All the generals burst into laughter upon hearing the words.
