Wu Feng recovered from his injuries, returned to the military camp, and began to reorganize and train the forward battalion. Hu Youcai and Lao Dao were also promoted to generals of the forward battalion because of their heroic efforts in killing the enemy and blocking the Wu army.

Wu Feng fought side by side.

Wang Zhi was independently arranged by Wu Feng to become the captain of the newly established reconnaissance team of the Forward Battalion. Some young sergeants who were good at tracking were selected from the army to form a reconnaissance team, which was directly under the command of Wu Feng and was responsible for collecting intelligence and spying on military affairs.

Dongzi was assigned to the cooking class, where he showed his talents.

This battle against the Wu Clan exposed many problems in the army. Wu Feng knew that the Wu Clan would not give up so easily, and the clouds of war still shrouded the surrounding areas. If the army's combat effectiveness is not improved, it would be difficult to face the Wu Clan army in the future.

Form effective resistance.

With the cooperation of Hu Youcai and Lao Dao, a training plan was quickly formulated. For a while, the entire forward battalion was moaning and wailing everywhere. The soldiers in other military camps were frightened and very lucky to see them.

My dear mother! Is that still a human life? The soldiers in other military camps looked at the brothers in the forward camp with sympathy in their eyes. What evil did they do to meet such a demon boss?

The soldiers of the forward battalion have seen the terror of the Wu army, and the Qingcheng master Hu Yanhe has suffered under Wu Feng, so no matter how hard the training is, no one dares to make any trouble, they just complain secretly in private.

However, the amount of training you should participate in cannot be less.

One year later, the effect of the army training was obvious. The team was taken out for training. They were full of energy and their physical endurance was greatly improved. They participated in resisting the attacks of the Wu cavalry many times and made a lot of achievements. It can be seen from the official article

Chi nodded repeatedly, submitted a letter to the court for commendation, and explained the specific situation to Zhao Lie. After knowing this, Prince Zhao felt very happy. This boy is indeed a talent.

So, the imperial court gave another round of commendations, and all the soldiers of the vanguard battalion received many rewards. Wu Feng was awarded a viscount for meritorious service, and the whole battalion was full of joy.

The other military camps were jealous, so they imitated others and came to learn from their experience. Unfortunately, either the commander himself was unable to set an example, or the commander was incapable of making a fool of himself and could not act like a tiger but turned against a dog. Complaints arose and conflicts abounded.

What a waste! In the end, it was settled.

However, Wu Feng believes that this is not enough! The Wu Clan is a nation on horseback. Riding on horseback can come and go like the wind, and their elite wolf cavalry are even more invincible. If you want to be able to resist the Wu Clan, you need to form your own cavalry.

In fact, what Wu Feng thought of, the military had already thought of. It's not that Dazhou didn't have its own cavalry, it just lacked good horses.

The horses of the Wu tribe have good endurance and are suitable for long-distance raids. They are an excellent breed among military horses. The horses of Dazhou are too big and have great strength and explosive power, but their endurance is too poor and not suitable for long-distance raids. In addition, they also have a large food intake and require logistical support.

Disaster.

Fighting against the Wu cavalry is fine at short distances. Once the battle line is lengthened and the battle continues to enter a stalemate, the shortcomings of the Zhou war horses will be fully exposed.

Although they have been improving the breeds of war horses, the results have not been ideal. Therefore, although the cavalry system of the Great Zhou Dynasty still exists, it exists in name only. There are only some troops at the border and some cavalry to deal with the harassment of the Wu tribe.

In addition, after so many years of peace and no war, many people spent their efforts without achieving results and wasted military expenditures, which proved to be thankless. Therefore, gradually, few people paid attention to the improvement of horses.

Wu Feng thought of the Gale Beast, but the output of the Gale Beast was too low, and it was a carnivore, so large-scale breeding would be too stressful. I heard from the quartermaster that someone had originally proposed using the Black Nightmare Beast as a mount.

The Black Nightmare Beast is not only tall, bigger than the Witch Clan Wolf Rider, but also extremely ferocious and not afraid of giant wolves. Its speed, endurance, size, and strength are all beyond the giant wolf, and the Black Nightmare Beast is also a herbivore and only needs fodder.

That's enough.

However, there are very few people who can tame the Black Nightmare Beast. The Black Nightmare Beast only recognizes those who tame it, making it difficult to trade and trade. It also has a fierce temperament and cannot be managed in an organized manner.

So in the end, the plan was scrapped before it was implemented.

However, Wu Feng found this news like a treasure. His beast control technique can communicate with beasts through spiritual seeds, and may be able to solve the problem of the black nightmare beast's recognition and transaction!

Wu Feng explained the situation to Shangguan Wenchi, and Shangguan Wenchi allowed him to try. Sishuiguan neither supported nor opposed it.

After Wu Feng explained what he was doing, he mounted his horse and headed straight for the Qilian Mountains!

In the central part of the Zhou Dynasty, the Qilian Mountains were connected to the Manshou Ridge, stretching from east to west and stretching for thousands of kilometers across the empire's territory. It became the natural dividing line between the north and the south. It affected the climate of the two worlds and was the birthplace of several rivers in the country.

, it is also a paradise for countless birds, insects and beasts.

At the foot of the Qilian Mountains is a grassland with rich water and grass. Dazhou's military horse farm and Qingtang Mu were built here, so Wu Feng had to make a front stop here to find out the specific situation of the Black Nightmare Beast.

White clouds are floating in the blue sky, and horses are running beneath the white clouds.

This is what Wu Feng saw when he came to Qingtang Mu. The May sun shone on him, and it was really refreshing to see the snow-capped mountains in the distance, the pasture nearby, and the horses running on the pasture.

The horse supervisor, Lao Dou, is an old stable boy. He has been raising horses for generations. He is obsessed with raising horses, and he is also knowledgeable. He is a real expert.

It is already the fourth generation that he has been passed down as the Horsemaster. He has two sons, both of whom are good at raising horses. In his words, there are successors! When it comes to this, Lao Dou is full of wrinkles.

His face glowed with pride.

Raising horses here is so comfortable! You don’t have to deal with powerful people, and no one will try to trick you. Horses are human beings. If you treat them well, they will trust you and be affectionate to you.

Doing what you like to do, doing what you are good at, and having a salary to support your family makes Lao Dou feel very satisfied.

Perhaps no one had come here for a long time, so Old Dou and Wu Feng chatted for a long time. When talking about the Black Nightmare Beast, Old Dou said with regret: "When I was young, I also tamed one, but it was too hot-tempered.

, it can’t be tamed, what a pity!”

Therefore, he strongly opposed Wu Feng's proposal to form a Black Nightmare Cavalry.

It wasn't until Wu Feng said that he had a better way to tame beasts that he reluctantly agreed to go with Wu Feng to the place where the black nightmare beasts gathered to give it a try.

It was a nice day, and the birds were flying extremely high under the blue sky. Wu Feng and Lao Dou rode horses and set out on the road with some necessary items.

After riding horses for five days, the two of them came to a huge canyon. The reflection of the tall snow-capped mountains was rippling in the lake in the middle of the canyon. A group of black nightmare beasts ate grass and drank water leisurely, demure and contented.

They look like horses, but are much taller. Their bodies are covered with black scales, their tails are as long as snakes, and they are also covered with scales. On their heads are sharp horns that are one meter long, which are their fighting weapons.

Every year during the mating season, these violent unicorns will use their horns to duel with each other to win the favor of the opposite sex.

Wu Feng and the others did not go there rashly. Instead, they set up tents in a sheltered area outside the canyon and settled down temporarily. He planned to observe these black nightmare beasts with Lao Dou for a few days.
Chapter completed!
