Sun Jian left, and took the trade matters he had discussed with Yanbei and the army full of anger to the south, vowing to share the superiority with Zhou Ang, and let Yuan Shao know how powerful Sun Wentai was!

As a person who knew the way to lead the warship south after returning to Liaodong, Sun Jian left his subordinate Han Dang behind, temporarily followed Yanbei all the way north in the future and then led the fleet south, of course, he was also responsible for the selection of horses and other miscellaneous matters.

Sun Jian's vision is not to be said, he grasps the problem very accurately, and points out the war horse he needs in one bite.

The shoulder height is six feet six inches, and the body is mostly strong; From the age of two onwards, they have experienced horseman taming, and they can go directly to the battlefield.

Such a physique can be called a good horse even in the north, which has a large number of horses. Yanbei can assert that among the current Liaodong war horses, there are only about 3,000 horses that can reach such a standard...... This is still the conclusion based on the estimation of the batch of new horse cubs that have grown to two years old in Liaodong Horse Farm.

But such a deal is more worthwhile for Yanbei.

Because he is not short of money, money is the most useless thing for Liaodong now. With these treasures obtained in Luoyang, after returning to Liaodong, will Yanbei still worry about having no money? No way!

War horses are very important, in the battle with Lu Bu, Yan Bei has a better understanding of what the elite cavalry can do on the battlefield, and the armor of those elite cavalry also gave Yan Bei a lot of inspiration, and the formation of an elite cavalry belonging to Liaodong has been able to put it on the agenda.

But he has a lot of horses, and there will be more in the future...... War horses can be born, but those craftsmen who have mastered exquisite skills can't be born.

This time he was able to trade with Koto and bring him craftsmen.

Five hundred horses can be exchanged for four to five hundred craftsmen for him...... Just like the twenty old people who have been craftsmen for generations at the beginning of Liaodong Tiewu.

They were able to bring earth-shaking changes to the Yanbei Army.

Liaodong is a good place, for Yanbei, the land of Liaodong has brought him too much, including the idea of being able to override the princes of the world, all of which come from Liaodong.

When Yuan Shao and others just realized the importance of the territory and fought for the land, Liaodong had entered its third year under his rule. When others did not know the source of education, taxation and even military armor, he built a academy in Liaodong, recruited famous scholars, and molded a strong style of learning in the wilderness; Open iron mines, build warships, make agricultural tools, and open up thousands of hectares of fields.

Now he and Lu Yi still have less than 20,000 soldiers left, and this time back to Liaodong, Yanbei plans to recruit troops and horses in Youji and Hebei Prefectures, so that the soldiers and horses under his command will be expanded to 4 to 50,000. Now it is different from the past, in the past, he had the intention to recruit troops, but he was limited by the grain production in Liaodong, and he did not dare to recruit more than 20,000 troops, and even lent the soldiers to Xianbei Suli to feed because there was no food.

Now, they don't have the same predicament as they used to be.

Food, one of the three obstacles to recruitment, is gone, and the rest is the source of armor and bravery...... There were only 100,000 households in Liaodong County, and this was the result of several migrations, and he could not recruit another 20,000 or even 30,000 people.

The young and strong all come to fight, who will plant the land?

But Yanbei didn't want to do this, he felt that there was no one in Liaodong, but there were always people in Youzhou, and it just took some effort. In his opinion, the biggest problem in recruiting soldiers is in the forging of armor.

There are a lot of people in Liaodong Tiewuli, but most of them are apprentices, and there are very few real craftsmen, so it is good for apprentices to build farm tools, once they build weapons, the quenching process is not right, and if they are not careful, a good piece of steel will be wasted.

He needed craftsmen, blacksmiths, shipwrights.

This is the best way to enhance the strength of Liaodong...... It is imperative to trade with Jiangdong.

After Sun Jian left, the soldiers and horses stationed in Luoyang were not boring, Su Fuyan and Sun Qing released scouts to travel to various cities west of Luoyang, and almost every day they had to break out several skirmishes with the scouts who were wandering in the east of Hangu Pass.

Both sides invariably did not release most of their troops and horses to avoid losing their troops again.

Outside Luoyang City, the soldiers and horses in the palace were withdrawn, camped outside, cut down wood to make siege ordnance, and even their major moves could be found more than ten miles away.

From Luoyang to Hangu Pass, although there are more than 200 miles between the two cities, whether it is Hangu Pass or Luoyang, if the action is big enough, it only takes five hours from this end to that end.

Yanbei's rush to the siege ordnance made Hangu Pass feel uneasy, and in connection with the scouts who were wandering under the pass some time ago, a dark cloud suppressed at the head of each defender of Hangu Pass. After Lu Bu changed back to Song Xian, he was recalled by Dong Zhuo of Chang'an in a letter, and Li Dao, who was the guard of Hangu Pass, saw Xu Rong retreat to Luhun Pass, and hurriedly ordered Guo Yan, who was still in the north, to be transferred back to the pass.

At this time, once Yanbei led the army to besiege the city pass, Guo Yan would become a lone army cut off from the grain route, which was too dangerous for them.

It is worth mentioning that when fighting against Guo Yan, Cao Cao, who had been defeating the battle, finally won a small battle, and when Guo Yan resisted Gongsun Zhan's attack, he scattered the flank of the Liangzhou army with light troops, causing Guo Yan not to dare to go out of the city to fight with the soldiers and horses.

Liu Bei finally failed to lead troops to Luoyang, and before his soldiers and horses could go out of the boundary of Qingzhou, he received the pirate leader Guan Chenglian and the thief soldiers Guan Hai near the Beihai Kingdom of Qingzhou to plunder the state again, and hurriedly returned to the state county, and several major battles broke out in order to quell the chaos.

Yanbei knew all this from the letter, although Liu Bei could not be there in person, he still sent someone to send back the letter, first, to explain the situation, and secondly, to explain the situation...... I want to borrow someone from Yanbei.

Yes, Liu Bei's letter did not say that he wanted to return to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but wanted to borrow Zhao Yunbu from Yanbei to help him quell the rebellion.

This letter made Yanbei cry and laugh.

"Changwen, what do you think of this letter?" Yan Bei handed Liu Bei's letter to Chen Qun with a smile on his face, there were only two of them in the military tent, Yan Bei spoke more casually, shook his head and smiled: "This Liu Xuande!" ”

To tell the truth, Guan Yu Zhang Fei, who holds Liu Bei in his hand, and Tian Yu who is transferred to him in Liaodong, Yanbei can be regarded as taking Liu Bei's small gang under his hands...... From the bottom of his heart, Yanbei felt that he couldn't stand Liu Bei, and this result made Liu Bei afraid that it was not so simple to act in Qingzhou.

"General, Qingzhou Assassin Liu Bei, isn't it your subordinate?"

"It's not really, it's more like my relationship with Cao Mengde, not to mention that now he is in charge of Qingzhou." Yan Bei also knew in his heart that it would be too difficult to think that Liu Bei was his subordinate. But at least they still have a good incense now, and he asked Chen Qun, "Do you think you should lend him soldiers?" ”

It's easy to borrow soldiers, but I'm afraid that I'm only afraid of meat buns and dogs, and I won't go back. Liu Xuande is also a heroic person, if he wants to do the right thing, he can give up the choice that is beneficial to him. In fact, there are many people in the world who can do this, but many of them do so because they think less. But Liu Bei obviously didn't think less, but he was more willing to do something thankless.

Such a person, even if they had a very close relationship in the past, will slowly drift apart in the future because of the separation of the heavens. Not to mention the changing world...... Where is the certainty?

"Borrowing must be borrowed, this is a good opportunity to plant people in Qingzhou." Chen Qun thought very simply, he didn't have the concerns of Yanbei, and said casually: "Since the general wants to open a maritime trade route with Jiangdong after returning to Youzhou, whether you want to or not, you must have a good relationship with Qingzhou...... Isn't now the right time? ”

In fact, Yanbei's original intention was to allocate 3,000 soldiers and horses to let Guan Yu and Zhang Fei go to Qingzhou under the command. Although they have coveted the two of them for a long time, but now that there are Zhao Yuntai Shi Ci and others, Yanbei does not have such a great desire for the talent of the hedge formation.

What's more, if these two people want to go to Liu Bei, can he stop them?

"I understand, since this is the case, let Jiao Touch lead a group of soldiers and horses to Qingzhou, I am going to form another battalion of cavalry, and I need Zilong's bravery." Yan Bei was full of energy, and since he saw Lu Bu's cavalry tactics, he gave Yan Bei a lot of inspiration...... Zhao Yun's bravery is slightly inferior to Lu Bu, but it is not too bad, if he is trained properly, it is very likely that Lu Bu's tactics will be copied into a Liaodong iron cavalry that can sweep the battlefield, so at this time, Zhao Yun will definitely not be able to leave, and he still has a spare touch at hand, and immediately decided: "Send someone to call Jiao Touch, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei." ”

After a while, the three of them arrived in the tent, and as expected by Yanbei, he had just said that Liu Bei had encountered a thorny problem in Qingzhou, and Guan Zhang and the others hugged their fists and asked for their lives to go to Qingzhou to help Liu Bei.

Yan Bei said with a smile: "I have a close relationship with Xuande, and I also appreciate him as a person, so naturally I will respond to my needs, and you two can rest assured." ”

After that, he said to Jiao: "I already know about your wife, and a certain general of Yan will lead the troops back to Liaodong, and now I plan to order you to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to Qingzhou to help Liu Yuanjun and help him shoot away the thieves, and you can also take this opportunity to find a wife and children in the Central Plains, are you willing?" ”

"My subordinates are willing to go!" Of course, Jiao Touch didn't say anything, and the fool knew that this was thinking about him, "General Ende, subordinate Minggan Wunei!" ”

"Okay, you don't have to say this, I haven't watched Yan for a while, and you have remembered it, the leader can't drink, do you know?" Yan Bei stared at the last sentence of Jiao Fu, and then he gently said: "After helping Liu Zhijun defeat the thief, don't be busy returning to Liaodong first, I want to trade with Jiangdong, and the sea route will pass through Qingzhou, so you will ask Liu Yuanjun to garrison Donglai and prepare to meet the fleet...... Yun Chang Yide, after you go over, discuss with Xuande, can you show Captain Jiao as the Taishou of Donglai, my two states are only more than ten days round trip by sea, and they should attack and defend each other. ”

"No!"

Seeing the two of them hugging their fists, Yan Bei still felt reluctant in his heart after all, and said to them: "Before that, I have sent a letter to the great Confucian scholars of Liaodong Academy, and sent you two to study Jingyi under the door, and wait for Xuande's Qingzhou to settle down, and then we will meet again in Liaodong!" ”

Hearing the news, Guan Yu hugged his fists and thanked him, and Zhang Fei was even more overjoyed.

However, just when Yanbei wanted to pull the two of them to say something considerate, a soldier suddenly ran over from outside the tent and said loudly: "General, there is a Yingchuan person from outside the camp, saying that he came to meet the general!" ”
