"Remember to make more barbecue!"

Zhang Zhun said with a smile.

He is a typical carnivore and especially likes to eat barbecue. The leaders of the Hu Ben Army are all the same. Maybe they were afraid of being hungry when they were young, but now they like to eat meat. If there were fewer barbecue prepared, it would be really not enough for these guys to grab it. Zhang Zhun roughly estimated that each of the group of people around him would have no problem killing two kilograms of barbecue.

"No problem! Enough!"

Yang Zixuan went there excitedly.

"tiger!"

"come over!"

Zhang Zhun suddenly raised his hand and shouted.

"arrive!"

Wang Laohu was holding his last scimitar in his hand, preparing to keep it for him as a souvenir. Suddenly, he heard Zhang Zhun's scream and answered subconsciously, throwing the scimitar out. When he finished answering, he suddenly realized that he had not even left a Mongol waist knife. However, he was too lazy to worry about it. Anyway, he could continue to seize it next time. Fighting with the Hu Ben Army, are you still afraid that it would not be captured?

"Sir, are you looking for me?"

Wang Laohu came to Zhang Zhun and asked excitedly.

"Tiger, there are still many horse thieves around. Can they attract them in?"

Zhang Zhun asked seriously.

When he attacked just now, he found that there were some sporadic horse thieves around him who had been observing the battle between the Hu Ben Army and the Tartars. Zhang Zhun was not sure what these horse thieves originated and how they survived. However, he felt that these horse thieves might be a little moved by the Hu Ben Army cavalry. As long as these horse thieves were added and riding training was used, it would reduce the time. In other words, they could replenish the lost troops faster.

In the battle of Pinggang, the Hu Ben Army sacrificed more than 200 soldiers and more than 200 injured people, so they cannot participate in the battle in the short term. The 500 people's vacancy needs to be made up as soon as possible. If 500 horse thieves can be found, replenishing these vacancy is the best choice.

The Hu Ben Army now has enough war horses, but it lacks new recruits with a cavalry foundation. If a person who has no cavalry training foundation at all, he will be able to master horse control for at least half a year. Zhang Zhun wants to shorten this period as soon as possible and increase the vitality of the Hu Ben Army cavalry as soon as possible.

Zhang Zhun estimated that Huang Taiji would be more determined to retreat after he suffered this blow. Even if Huang Taiji himself did not want to leave, the pressure around him would force him to leave. The Tiger Army had the ability to fight in the field, which would definitely be a disaster for Huang Taiji. He could not last long in Beizhili.

The Tartars were no longer safe in Northern Zhili, and they would definitely find ways to retreat as soon as possible. The Hu Ben Army must seize the opportunity to strengthen the cavalry as soon as possible, and find ways to cause some losses to the Tartars before the Tartars retreat. Zhang Zhun estimated that at least, the number of field cavalry must be increased to more than 5,000 people in order to effectively attack the enemy.

The battle proves that the fighting method of snowball is effective. The more people the stronger the combat power, the greater the losses it will cause to the enemy. Of course, it is impossible for the Hu Ben cavalry to not die. Therefore, when the battle is about to start, you must also predict the number of people you lose and prepare to replenish the personnel. After the battle is over, quickly replenish the vacancy so that you can launch the battle continuously and cause greater losses to the Tartars.

"It should be no problem!"

Wang Laohu pondered for a moment and said confidently.

"Why?"

Zhang Zhun asked cautiously.

"We just wiped out two thousand Mongols in Pinggang. I believe that all the horse thieves know, and their news has always been very fast. At this time, I believe that most horse thieves are willing to join us and beat the Tartars hard."

Wang Laohu said confidently.

"good!"

"You go!"

"Absorb them as soon as possible!"

Zhang Zhun nodded in appreciation and said with satisfaction.

"clear!"

Wang Laohu immediately went there excitedly.

"Wang Shide!"

Zhang Zhun raised his hand and shouted again.

"What are the instructions for the sir?"

Wang Shide hurried over.

"Keep paying close attention to the movements of the Tartars in Hejian Prefecture!"

Zhang Zhun said calmly.

The population and supplies plundered by the Tatars and Mongols were mainly concentrated in Hejian Prefecture and have not been taken away yet. The Tatars have always believed that it would be a big problem for them to take away these things. Because no enemy dared to leave the solid castle and come out to fight with them. The first two invaders, the Tatars were all swaggering out of the block with a large number of people and supplies. But now, the situation is different. The Hu Ben cavalry has already had the ability to attack them, so the Tatars' plans will inevitably make changes.

After the Hu Ben Army had the ability to fight in the field, of course, it was impossible for the Tartars to take away all these populations and wealth. Northern Zhili was a territory bounded by the Hu Ben Army. If Huang Taiji wanted to steal the things of the Hu Ben Army, he had to ask about the meaning of the Hu Ben Army. Huang Taiji wanted to bring these populations and materials back to Liaodong in a swagger, and dream!

"clear!"

Wang Shide agreed and turned around and left.

"etc."

Zhang Zhun suddenly thought of something and shouted hurriedly.

"yes."

Wang Shide stopped,

"Tell the Dragon Cavalry Camp to quickly arrive at Dongjiabao!"

Zhang Zhun said in a deep voice.

"clear!"

Wang Shide agreed and turned around and left.

The Dragon Cavalry Camp is currently active in the triangular area between Dezhou, Qingzhou City and Jinan City to prevent possible attacks by the Tatar cavalry and protect the local spring plowing. However, with the end of the Pinggang battle, the possibility of the Tatars continuing to attack Shandong is already zero. They can leave Shandong and go to Dongjiabao to strengthen the overall strength of the cavalry.

After the arrival of the Dragon Cavalry Camp, the field force of the Hu Ben Army can be increased to more than 5,000 people, and the newly expanded troops may reach six or seven thousand. The 7,000-strong Hu Ben Army cavalry was dispatched, and even if they encountered an enemy cavalry of about 5,000 people, they could fight.

...

"Come!"

"We drink a big bowl of hot drinks!"

That night, the Hu Ben Army Central Camp held a grand celebration banquet.

The triumphant Hu Ben Army cavalry and other Hu Ben Army soldiers, in addition to the staff on duty, all attended the grand celebration banquet. They ate large pieces of barbecue, drank the rice wine transported from the rear in big bowls, talked loudly, and were very excited.

Yang Qianqiang did what he said, taking the initiative to be on duty, eating only barbecue, and never drinking. Others, including Zhang Zhun, can drink with all their heart's content. In order to show their generousness, Yang Zixuan prepared all the big sea bowls for everyone. Drinking with a glass of wine? Too stingy! It's only satisfying to use a big sea bowl!

Fortunately, the degree of rice wine is only about twenty degrees, otherwise, Zhang Zhun would have to roll under the table after a bowl of rice. Fortunately, the amount of rice wine was not large, and even if Zhang Zhun had to pour Zhang Zhun hard, there was not enough rice wine. In those days, winemaking required food. In the era of insufficient food, wine was definitely precious.

In fact, the rice wine that Zhang Zhun and others drank was brewed with foreign crops such as sweet potatoes. Because after the sweet potato seeds came out, they were not very popular, so some winemakers tried to use sweet potatoes to make wine. As a result, they found that the rice wine brewed with sweet potatoes tasted good. Therefore, the process of brewing wine with sweet potatoes gradually became popular. Otherwise, it would be a bit difficult for Yang Zixuan to find so many rice wines!

"Come on, old man! Give you a respect!"

Zhang Zhun held a big bowl and toasted to Mr. Chen Guoxi.

Here, this old man is the only one who deserves Zhang Zhun's initiative to toast. The Hu Ben Army has more and more war horses. It is definitely not enough to rely solely on the Hu Ben Army soldiers. It also requires professional grooms. Although they are grooms, the work they are engaged in is very important.

Generally speaking, a skilled professional groom can take care of twenty to thirty war horses. A cavalry battalion requires hundreds of professional grooms. With their care, the cavalry soldiers of the Tiger Army can be more focused on training the skills of killing enemies. Therefore, Chen Guoxi, the chief groom, has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders!

"grown ups……"

Old man Chen Guoxi said with a sob.

He worked as a groom in Liaodong for twenty years and never was so happy. In the past, in Liaodong, the Ming army was always bullied by the Tartars. The top leader was defeated, and the groom's life was not easy. He was punished every few days, and he lived a nervous life every day, which was a waste of life. Relatively speaking, the Hu Ben Army was completely different.

This time, the Hu Ben Army cavalry took the initiative to attack and killed two Mongolian Thousand People Teams in one breath. This was a big victory. With this victory as the beginning, the future battle will definitely be smoother. Chen Guoxi optimistically estimated that the originally arrogant Tartars should not be able to jump around in Northern Zhili for a few days.

"Come on! Let me go!"

Among all the soldiers, the ones who drink the most are naturally Wang Laohu, Liu Heizi and others. It is refreshing to follow the Hu Ben Army to fight! Although the usual training is indeed a little cruel and harder, everything is worth it when thinking about the victory of the battle.

Other horse thieves who joined the Hu Ben Army cavalry also had the same thoughts. After the daytime battle, their sense of belonging to the Hu Ben Army has been greatly enhanced. In the Hu Ben Army, there are indeed a little more constraints and disciplines in all aspects. However, the glory of victory in the battle is absolutely impossible to enjoy elsewhere. If you want to get this glory, you must abide by the discipline of the Hu Ben Army, which is that simple.

"Sir, if we catch Huang Taiji, will we roast him and eat it?"

Wang Laohu suddenly asked loudly.

Everyone around them calmed down and waited for Zhang Zhun's answer.

"No!"

"What's so delicious about Huang Taiji's meat!"

"We let him be responsible for giving us barbecue, but we don't give it to him!"

Zhang Zhun was filled with two big bowls of rice wine. He was a little confused. He grinned and answered carelessly. He didn't care about his answer, what consequences would it cause.

"good!"

"I agree with this suggestion!"

"Oh, I don't want to eat Huang Taiji's barbecue!"

...

A group of people became extremely chaotic and noisy, venting their inner joy.

"Sir, emergency information!"

Suddenly, Lu Yidian came over and handed Zhang Zhun an emergency information.

Zhang Zhun put down the wine bowl, opened it and found that the information was sent by Mo Yu from Tianjin Wei.

Mo Yu had successfully received Lu Xiangsheng, took him out of Beijing City, and rushed to the Hu Ben Army's control area. However, after arriving at Tianjin Guard, a little problem arose. Lu Xiangsheng threatened to commit suicide by taking a hunger strike and refused to continue running with Mo Yu. Mo Yu had no choice but to take more intense measures against Lu Xiangsheng, so he had to ask Zhang Zhun for help.

"This old man!"
