Chapter 1487 Inspecting Musketeer Cavalry Battalion (Second Change)
Chapter 1496

Gao Lian came to this remote house in Xiazhou, and spent two hard nights, until the morning of the third day, Zhang Xiaojie came to the door again.

"Master Gao, I am late, please don't blame Mr. Gao." After Zhang Xiaojie stepped into the courtyard, he saluted Gao Qiu respectfully and smiled.

"As long as the old man can come, it's never too late..." Gao Qiu said with a smile, but his eyes fell on the middle-aged man dressed as a servant standing behind Zhang Xiaojie.

And this person also noticed Gao Qiu's gaze, showed a kind smile, and his eyes fell on Zhang Xiaojie.

"Master Gao, it's not too safe here, why don't we talk in the room?" Zhang Xiaojie nodded secretly after knowing it, and said to Gao Qiu.

"Of course that would be great, please..." Although the middle-aged servant and Zhang Xiaojie's little moves were very covert, they could not hide it from Gao Qiu, an old driver, and Gao Qiu did not reveal it. Lead the way first.

Soon, a group of three people entered the room, and the guards brought by Gao Lian and the guards who came with Zhang Xiaojie surrounded the room.

And Gao Qiu looked at the middle-aged man dressed as a servant with a smile, and didn't ask any questions. Zhang Xiaojie could only clear his throat, and offered to recommend.

"Master Gao, this is Lord Xiao Shenxiao, the chief of the East Road of the Great Liao River..."

"Oh, it turned out that it was Mr. Xiao who came to the humble house in person and asked Mr. Xiao to forgive Gao for being blind, disrespectful, and disrespectful." Gao Qiu then put on a look of astonishment, got up and saluted Xiao Shen.

At this time, even though Xiao Shen had once served as the prime minister of Northern Liao, but now, what he wanted to do was to serve Song Ting, so naturally he did not dare to make excuses, so he quickly got up and returned Gao Qiu's courtesy. "I don't dare to be a gift to Master Gao. In fact... Master Gao must know something about Xiao's purpose."

Gao Qiu nodded slightly with a smile, and raised his hand to signal Xiao Shen to continue. Following Xiao Shen's words, although Gao Qiu tried his best to suppress his excitement, the excitement in his eyes became brighter and brighter.

Between the Guangji River and the Bianhe River, [-] miles away from Kaifeng, a newly built camp of the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty was built for only a few months. Today, Wang Yang, Zhao Ji, and the guard Ma Jun of the Sanya Army, Commander Cao Shi, came together to.

"...In the end, I had to leave two battalions of elite cavalry with me. You know, it is not easy for my Song cavalry to have such a family background.

If you want, the old man gave it without blinking an eyelid, but now it has been five months, when will you be able to produce the effect, at least give the old man a letter. "

"I specially invited you here today, isn't it just for this purpose? General, you don't have to worry. When you get to the place in a while, you can go to the drill of the Musketeers first, and then we will talk about it in detail."

"What are you talking about? Let me tell you, Mr. Wang, although we have a good relationship, I have already given you a thousand elites. If you ask me for someone again, there will be none." Cao Shi, an old driver, is like a miser. He looked at Wang Yang warily.

"Hehe... Don't be joking, General. Even if he wants someone, Wang will go to find His Majesty, not you, General. Last time, General, you sent me another battalion of cavalry. The result, in the end It was Wang who found His Majesty, and His Majesty opened his mouth, and you finally sent him to me." Wang Yang countered angrily.

"The important thing is that training an army that uses brand-new weapons is not just as simple as talking about it. You may not know it, General Cao, but the ammunition consumed by the musketeers of only a thousand horses every month is as simple as that. Worth the amount."

"Five thousand guan... Hey, I said Mr. Wang, this is only a thousand rides, and it costs so much property in a month. If you make up 60 guan, wouldn't you have to throw away [-] guan of property every year? The team, how can I, Da Song, support me..."

Wang Yang laughed and explained to Cao Shi. "This is impossible, but the combat power of this army will definitely far exceed your imagination. When the military exercise is over, you will know what it means to be worth the money..."

"Think about it, they are cavalry. When the training is successful, who do you think the credit will be for the general? Is it just the credit of Wang and His Highness? You are the commander of the guards of the three yamen of the Song Dynasty. make……"

Cao Shi's eyeballs chuckled, and immediately changed into a pleasant expression and said. "That's natural. If it weren't for that, why would the old man bother to follow you all the way to come here to see this?"

"General wait... Forget it, the barracks is ahead, let's go over quickly." Wang Yang rolled his eyes, ignored Cao Shi, and rode his horse towards the barracks where the outline could already be seen clearly go.

It's just that when there was still a few miles away from the barracks, the incessant crisp bang bang sound shocked the horse of General Cao back again and again, unwilling to move forward.

Not only him, but also the mounts under the command of several Sanya generals who came with him also neighed in shock.

Wang Yang and Zhao Ji looked at each other, and the eyes of the two guys were full of gleeful smiles.

"My lords, Mr. Wang thinks it's better for your lords to get off their horses. The closer the distance is, the louder the sound of the muskets will be, not even much quieter than that of the Yuqian Artillery Battalion." Wang Yang said seriously.

"You boy, why didn't you explain clearly in advance, the old man thinks you are doing it on purpose, right?" Cao Shi turned over and jumped off the horse helplessly, seeing the ghostly expressions of Wang Yang and Zhao Ji, a little bit He pointed at this guy dumbfoundingly and shouted.

"No way, Wang is not squatting on the horseback to watch the jokes of the general, you and the generals, let's just lead the horses together..."

Wang Yang voluntarily and consciously jumped off the horse. At this moment, Cao Shi really had nothing to say, and could only follow the kid with a resentful expression. Forget it, this guy, whoever offends him He will always find a way to get revenge.

Thinking that this guy was still telling me that he had promised to give him two battalions of cavalry, it had a lot to do with his slip of the tongue.

It has long been heard that Wang Yang's belly is not as big as the eye of a needle, but now it seems that it really makes sense.

#####
When stepping into the barracks, the crackling sounds like roasted beans, the sharp whistle, and the hurried hoofbeats made Cao Shi and other generals of the three Yamen, who were about to arrive, stunned. .

And above the entire camp, there seemed to be a layer of faint blue smoke, and the inside of the nose was full of the smell of gunpowder smoke after burning gunpowder.

At this time, they happened to see more than fifty riders galloping rapidly under the school field, and each of the fifty riders on the horses used their legs to control the mounts on their bodies, and all raised their guns towards the school. The straw man erected 120 steps away on the left.
