"No need, let them do whatever they want, Captain Liu, you can take this general to familiarize yourself with here, no problem, right?" Zheng Peng said.

"It's an honor for my subordinates." Liu Lijie said respectfully.

"Cangcao Jiangming has seen General Liu."

"Bing Cao Wang Dong has only met General Liu."

"Riding Cao Huang Minyou has seen General Liu."

"Xu Ji has seen General Liu."

At this time, the officials of the Thousand Cavalry Battalion stepped forward to salute Zheng Peng.

The new Qianqi envoy is here, and he has to worship the mountain when he says anything, mix his face with a familiar face, and leave a good impression.

After some politeness, Zheng Peng, accompanied by Liu Lijie and others, began to inspect his own territory: the Tiger Thousand Cavalry Camp.

Zheng Peng looked at the environment of the barracks and said: "The environment here is good, and there is such a beautiful square." ”

In the imagination, the barracks are tents or large shops, simple, loess to the sky, but in the Tiger Thousand Cavalry Camp, Zheng Peng found that the central school field is a layer of beautiful grass planting school field, in addition to the camp has a beautiful, brick and wood structure of the house, but also planted flowers and grass, built pavilions, it does not feel like a military camp, but like a garden protected by heavy soldiers.

Liu Lijie explained: "In addition to being our camp, the Tiger Thousand Cavalry Camp is also a polo field for the royal family, and the emperor, the prince, the prince and several princes often come here to play polo, and also hold polo competitions from time to time, so the specifications are much higher than those of ordinary military camps." ”

I see.

Zheng Peng knew that in the Tang Dynasty, literati liked to hold poetry meetings, meet friends with literature, and hold some elegant games such as poetry and pot throwing, while martial artists liked archery, horse racing, and playing polo, which was the hottest and most popular sport in the Tang Dynasty.

Li Longji went to the barracks to play polo, which was definitely much safer than outside.

The soldiers' barracks, training grounds, school grounds, grain depots, armory, stables, etc., looked at them and nodded with satisfaction.

It is worthy of being the Son of Heaven's own soldiers, everything is of high standard, such as armor, horses, and food are first-class, and the government soldiers who have no money to take and have to bring their own food and grass are different, these soldiers also have a salary and subsidies every month, and the horses in the stables are all good horses, according to the introduction of Cao Huang Minyou, the scale of two people and five horses is prepared.

Zheng Peng turned around, returned to the martial arts stage of the school field, looked at the training soldiers, and suddenly said: "How many soldiers are there in the Tiger Battalion now?" ”

Soldier Cao Wang Dong immediately reported: "Back to the general's words, the Tiger Thousand Cavalry Battalion is equipped with 1,500 people, and the actual number is 1,500 people, in addition to a total of 500 people such as horse herding, pulp washing, gang heads, and jiannu, the whole battalion has a total of 2,000 people. ”

"A thousand cavalry battalions are fifteen hundred, and two ordinary military camps are top." Zheng Peng sighed.

The military system of the Tang Dynasty has five teams per battalion, each team leads three groups, each group receives five tithes, and each tithe leads ten people, that is, the standard configuration of a battalion is 750 people, and the configuration of the Tiger Thousand Cavalry Battalion is 1,500 people, in addition, there are 500 miscellaneous soldiers for logistics.

Luxury, such good conditions, even equipped with all kinds of miscellaneous servants, that is, the emperor can afford to raise this kind of army.

Datang is too rich, like Li Longji, he can rely on his hobbies to raise more than 10,000 people's teaching workshops, and also raise a Yulin army of more than 10,000 people.

Jiang Dong explained: "The Yulin Army is all in this configuration, mainly responsible for the security of the imperial city and the palace city, and there can be no moment of relaxation for twelve hours a day, in addition to the need for rotation, there must be enough soldiers for mobilization at any time, so the Yulin Army structure is different from the military department structure." ”

Zheng Peng nodded and asked, "Is there anything I need to pay attention to recently?" ”

Although he didn't want to be a director, Zheng Peng didn't want to be set aside, so he immediately asked about the affairs of the Thousand Cavalry Battalion.

The power is really fast, Liu Lijie's eyes flashed a trace of displeasure, as the custodian, he still quickly responded: "Three days later, it is the day of Jia Linjun's routine inspection, and later this month, the emperor will hold a polo match here, and there is nothing else special." ”

"Very good, if there is no order from the general, everything will be done according to the original plan, by the way, each Cao will send the information to the general's barracks."

"Yes, General." Huang Minyou and the others glanced at each other and promised in unison.

Zheng Peng glanced at the people around him, turned his head and said to Liu Lijie: "Team Liu, except for those who are on duty, resting and taking leave for injury and illness, everyone else is concentrated in the school field, so recognize your face." ”

"Obey!" Liu Lijie answered, and immediately asked people to blow the trumpet and concentrate.

As the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, the Tiger Thousand Cavalry Battalion was well-trained, and soon stood neatly in front of Zheng Peng, waiting for Zheng Peng's review.

"Report" Liu Lijie gave a military salute to Zheng Peng, and said with a serious face: "In addition to taking turns off, being on duty, and taking leave, 500 people are being trained, 500 people are gathered, and the general is invited to give a lecture." ”

Zheng Peng nodded and said, "Very good, return." ”

The forbidden garden and the imperial camp need to be guarded all day, don't look at the Tiger Thousand Cavalry Battalion has 1,500 people, but this 1,500 people need to be divided into four parts, part of the duty, part of the rest to prepare for the shift, part of the holiday, including the injury and illness, the last part of the training, according to the duty system, four hours to rotate a batch, each time three teams patrol, three teams are 450 people, and then add a group of people to do random patrols, each time 500 people are dispatched.

Counting it up, the establishment of 1,500 people is also very tight.

Of course, the palace is guarded by the four armies of the North Gate composed of left and right flying horses and left and right ten thousand horses, not only relying on Zheng Peng's group, the purpose of setting up the Yulin Army is to prevent assassins or palace coups, in addition to the Yulin Army, there are also a large number of troops stationed around Chang'an, which are composed of the army, secret guards, Chang'an Wannian two county officials, and Wuhou to form a multi-layer protection network to block the enemy from the outside.

It is impossible for a large number of armed forces to enter Chang'an, at most it is small-scale, and no matter how good the martial arts are, it is difficult to escape the layers of protection of the four armies at the North Gate.

Unless there is another coup d'état, the Yulin Army is still a very idle existence.

"Young Master, a priori token." Just as Zheng Peng was thinking, Ah Jun whispered on the side.

The army only recognizes the tokens and does not recognize the people, and all the soldiers who can assemble are concentrated, and those soldiers are standing straight, waiting for Zheng Peng to take the token out, and only when he sees the token will he recognize Zheng Peng's command.

There are two kinds of tokens or tokens, Zheng Peng got a piece of jade token, made of white jade, the jade quality is high-quality, the carving is first-class, there are a lot of runes carved on it, and Zheng Peng's official position and name are also engraved.

After hearing Ah Jun's reminder, Zheng Peng took out the jade right thousand horsemen and thousands of horsemen token from his waist, held it high, and in the sun, the token carved from white jade shone in the sun.

"Meet the General!" Liu Lijie, who returned to the team, saw the token and saluted loudly.

All the soldiers on the "Meet the General" school field followed Liu Lijie to salute Zheng Peng.

The first military salute he received when he took office, which was a symbol of recognition of Zheng Peng's status and position.

Don't look at the fact that there are only five hundred people, but when these soldiers speak out together, Zheng Peng, who is standing on the school competition platform, feels a wave of sound rushing to his face, and a look of admiration flashes in his eyes.

In other words, ordinary people would probably lose their faces with such a roar.

The carefully selected right 10,000 riders are of high quality.

The momentum was full, but Zheng Peng said without changing his face: "No courtesy, get up." ”

The trip to the Western Regions was not in vain, Zheng Peng saw more momentum and more spectacular scenes than this, and this little battle could not scare Zheng Peng.
