The two pawns stepped forward and followed behind Liu Rui, Li Shishi, and Qiao Feng.

After walking around the horse market, the horses here are not bad. This is what Qiao Feng told Liu Rui. Liu Rui himself does not understand horses, but Qiao Feng, as the head of the beggar gang, can naturally see the advantages of horses. inferior.

"My lord, I heard that you are buying horses in large numbers?" Qiankun Tingshu.com www.qktsw.com

A pawn found a horse dealer who was in charge of the horse market.

Liu Rui glanced at the horse dealer in front of him, a middle-aged man in his thirties with a beard, nodded and said, "Yeah! The world is too chaotic now, and my family is going to recruit some private soldiers, which requires a lot of money. Do you have any horses here?"

Now it is Dong Zhuo who is in chaos, ruling the government, local officials are corrupt and incompetent, bandits are everywhere, and many wealthy families will recruit private soldiers.

"Master, how many horses do you plan to buy?" the horse dealer asked with a smile.

Liu Rui thought for a moment and said, "Not much, buy three or five hundred horses!"

"Cough, cough" The horse dealer was immediately stunned by Liu Rui's words. With three or five hundred horses, are you planning to form an army or recruit private soldiers, but he also realized that this young man in front of him is definitely very human, not his own. Horse dealers can afford it.

"Master, if in the past, there were three or five hundred horses, we could get them together in the horse market, but at this time of year, all the horses in our horse market together are at most two hundred horses." A look of embarrassment appeared on the dealer's face.

Although he didn't want to offend the young master in front of him, he couldn't get the number of horses he wanted.

Liu Rui frowned and said, "Don't worry, money is not a problem, as long as you have a good horse, I will have money!"

"Young Master, you misunderstood, it's not about money, let me tell you the truth, all our horses are from the Wuhuan people in the north of Youzhou with grain, tea, silk and the like, and then from Wuhuan. The Huan people were transported across Youzhou to our Zhending County. Recently, a group of horse thieves suddenly arrived at fifty miles north of our Zhending County. All the horses that were trafficked before were robbed. , no one dared to take the risk of selling horses for a while."

"Horse thieves?!" These horse thieves have horses themselves, and they have robbed so many horses that they can pay attention to them, and their soldiers also need their opponents to practice. Liu Rui is sure Interested in this group of horse thieves.

"Two hundred horses, just two hundred. You go and gather all the horses now, I want them all!" Liu Rui waved his hand.

The horse dealer hurriedly said, "Okay, sir, we need about two hours to get all the horses here."

"Okay, two hours later, I'll come and fetch the horse!" Liu Rui took Li Shishi, Qiao Feng and others around and left the horse market to buy some clothes and rouge gouache for Li Shishi at the market in the east of the city.

I have to say that this thing of natural beauty is really not a bummer. A gorgeous beauty like Li Shishi can really handle any clothes.After walking with Li Shishi for two hours, all the clothes and rouge gouache that should be bought were bought, and the hands of the two pawns were full of the bought things.

After returning to the horse market, the horse dealer had already driven [-] horses to the market. After calculating the price, Liu Rui happily paid and asked the horse dealer to help drive the [-] horses to the foot of Huya Mountain.

010: Encirclement and suppression by officers and soldiers

Only then did the horse dealer realize that it was not the son of an aristocratic family who bought his own horses, but the king of Huya Mountain.

The horse dealer ran away without looking back, joking, doing business with bandits, it would be good to have a life, do you still expect to have a drink on the mountain to catch up with the old days?When Liu Rui saw the horse dealer's reaction, he also realized that he must have a place of his own as soon as possible, and use his status as a royal family member to erect his own signboard. It is not a long-term solution to always be king.

Du Jue and Yao Qing received a letter from the pawns, and they took dozens of soldiers down the mountain and drove all the horses back to the cottage.

Liu Rui only bought [-] war horses when he went down the mountain this time, and the [-] war horses in the previous cottage were only [-].There are also fifty old horses that can only be used for training.

Liu Rui simply asked Lin Chong to train [-] cavalry first temporarily, and the remaining [-] people temporarily mixed into the infantry for training, and then expanded the cavalry when the horses were obtained.

The strength of Lin Chong, the [-]-strong forbidden army coach, was not exaggerated.The results obtained from the training in the previous half month are still quite good. They already have the appearance of cavalry. Of course, they are still far from killing the enemy on the battlefield.

In the next half a month, Liu Rui practiced the inner strength and mind method given to him by Qiao Feng every day, while the soldiers in the cottage practiced Taizu Changquan every morning, and then the cavalry followed Lin Chong. The training of marksmanship and horseback tactics, while the infantrymen were taught by Tian Boguang to teach them the Kuangfeng sword technique, and the bowmen were trained daily in archery under the leadership of Du Jue.

Under the training of Lin Chong and Tian Boguang, the cavalry and infantry made rapid progress, while the progress of the archers was a little slow. After all, Lin Chong, Qiao Feng, and Tian Boguang were not proficient in archery.

In the era of the Three Kingdoms, the bowman is the only long-range attacking profession. Whether it is siege or defense, it is a very important existence. Therefore, Liu Rui also attaches great importance to it. The generals come out.

"It's not good, it's not good, the officers and soldiers are calling!" A burst of hurried shouts broke the silence of Huya Mountain in the early morning.

A soldier with a long spear ran all the way, shouting non-stop, and the soldiers who had just woken up in the cottage also picked up their weapons and rushed out.

"Tian Boguang, go and see what's going on?" Liu Rui walked out of the room quickly.

"Yes!" Tian Boguang had already hurried to the gate of the cottage, and saw that there were around a thousand armed men standing outside the cottage.

"My lord, there are a lot of officers and soldiers outside our stockade, and there are thousands of people!" Tian Boguang quickly came to Liu Rui to report the situation.

After hearing this, Liu Rui was not angry but happy. He was planning to pull his soldiers out to meet the horse thieves for a while. By the way, he took a look at the training results during this period. Now the officers and soldiers have actually arrived at the door.

As a traveler, Liu Rui knew very well that in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the military and government of the Han Dynasty had been rotten to the core, and these officers and soldiers were simply vulnerable, otherwise they would not have been defeated by the Yellow Turbans.Lazy people listen to the book www.lanren9.com

"Pass my order, Du Jue and Yao Qing will lead the bowmen to the wall, and Qiao Feng, Lin Chong, and Tian Boguang will order the cavalry and infantry to follow me!" Liu Rui waved his hand.

"Subordinates obey the order!" Everyone led the order away.

The soldiers in the cottage no longer had the initial panic. Du Jue and Yao Qing took the bowmen to the wall, and the cavalry and infantry also lined up neatly in the cottage, ready to attack.

Outside the cottage.

"Master Lu, this is the tiger-toothed bandit that you call ferocious as a tiger? I don't think so!" Geng Chun glanced contemptuously at Lu Dayu, the magistrate of Zhending County, standing beside him.

Three days ago, Lu Dayou personally went to Changshan County Governor's House to ask for a meeting with the County Governor Xia Houjie. Yanming found that the Huya Mountain Bandit was buying horses and armaments wantonly at the foot of the mountain, intending to attack Zhending County.

Xiahoujie had just attached to Dong Zhuo some time ago, and was appointed by Dong Zhuo as the governor of Changshan County. Just after taking office, a bandit wanted to attack Zhending County. Xiahoujie was furious and sent his subordinate Geng Chun to lead a thousand officers and soldiers to pacify Huya Mountain.

Lu Dayou wiped the sweat from his face, and didn't mind Geng Chun's contemptuous eyes at all, and said, "These thieves are naturally worthless in front of General Geng, as long as General Geng's army arrives, these thieves will naturally be frightened! "

Geng Chun used Lu Da's flattery very much. He was originally just a captain under Xia Houjie, and there were not many chances to be touted like this, not to mention that he was a county lord who was half a rank higher than himself. .

"Haha, Master Lu is joking, let's see how I can exterminate this tiger tooth bandit today!" Geng Chun looked smug, as if he had leveled Huya Mountain.

While the two were talking, the originally closed gate of the village suddenly opened. The two stopped and looked at the gate of the cottage. A young man in a white robe rode a white horse and ran out of the village, followed by three black horses. There were three middle-aged men sitting on top of the horse, followed by hundreds of cavalry and infantry that looked like at least a thousand people. At this time, there were hundreds of crossbowmen on the wall of the fortress, with long bows in their hands. Aiming at his own officers and soldiers.

Looking at the neat and tidy team, Geng Chun was a little panicked. There were five hundred bandits there, and they were clearly thousands of well-trained soldiers.

"Lu Dayu, are you making fun of me? This is five hundred bandits? It looks like this is at least two thousand!" Geng Chun was about to cry with anger, and he kept doing nothing behind Xia Houjie. , Now it's not easy to find an opportunity to install B, and as a result, so many bandits suddenly appeared.

Lu Da looked at Geng Chun anxiously, sweating profusely, and said in a panic, "Sir, I really don't know when there were so many bandits in Huya Mountain!"
