Camp Fine Willow.

The invincible iron army that moves the world.

Since its establishment, this army has been the trump card of the Han ace and the elite of the elite.

Even if another two thousand years pass, the prestige of this army will still not be reduced by half.

Along with its name, it is the Beifu Army commanded by Liu Yu, the Yang Family Army of Yang Ye, the Yue Family Army of Yue Fei, and the Qi Family Army of Qi Jiguang.

In other words, at this time, the Hosolius Battalion can be called a glorious army with a glorious tradition and a good work style.

In the previous life of the Xiliu Battalion, it was the Hedong County Volunteer Barracks of the Han Dynasty.

In the sixth year after Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, that is, in 159 BC, the old Xiongnu Shangdan Yu died, and the contradiction between the new Shan Yu and his Youxian King intensified.

Since ancient times, war has been the only means of diverting internal contradictions.

This was especially true of the Huns.

In the winter of that year, the entire eastern tribe of the Xiongnu almost poured out.

It came all the way from the Hetao and fought fiercely with the Han army under the county town of Yunzhong County; All the way up to the county, the soldiers came to the city.

At that time, the situation could be described as extremely critical!

The Huns were menacing, the defense line of the Great Wall was almost useless, and the Han army could only rely on the fortified city to resist the Xiongnu invasion.

The vast number of rural villages have almost all been abandoned.

What's more, at that time, the head of the Han family, Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, was actually terminally ill.

The empire is in turmoil, once the county or the clouds, any county city falls, the entire northern Great Wall defense line will collapse.

The Xiongnu soldiers will reproduce the great cause of seven years ago - the soldiers will be outside the Xiao Pass and burned back to the Middle Palace.

And seven years ago he was in armor. Holding the sword of the Son of Heaven, he went to the front line to reward the soldiers. The Son of Heaven who inspires the soldiers and unites the whole country, but it is difficult for even Weiyang Palace to come out.

It was under such circumstances that the Xiliu Battalion formed an army in the Xiliu Cang west of Chang'an City.

After that, the story of Taizong's fine willow parade took place.

The fine willow camp became famous in one fell swoop.

Zhou Yafu has been prosperous since then.

He was immediately promoted to lieutenant from the position of the county guard of Hedong County, and in April of the following year, he was appointed as the general of the chariot cavalry, and the edict of Taizong was issued. The first emperor of the posthumous order: If there is inconvenience, Zhou Yafu will be the general.

So, Wu Chu was in turmoil. Zhou Yafu was able to concurrently serve as a lieutenant and be in charge of the world's soldiers and horses.

Zhou Yafu went from the county guard of Hedong County to the Taiwei in only five years.

Such a rocket promotion speed has gone through Chinese history. There are very few.

And behind such a speed. The shadow of the fine willow camp is always looming.

Since the formation of this army, it has fought against the Xiongnu, pacified Wu Chu, fought thousands of miles, hundreds of battles of all sizes, and used iron-like military exploits to announce the world. They live up to their reputation as the number one army in the world.

And the Hosoyanagi Battalion, of course, did not appear out of thin air.

Not to mention the rumors in the community, Zhou Yafu was selected from the soldiers of Hedong County and local righteous soldiers.

Those who know a little bit of military knowledge. We all know it's impossible!

The elite is not trained in a day, and it is impossible for a hundred battles of a heroic division like the Xiliu Battalion to find thousands of people in a hurry and issue weapons to become the elite.

Not to mention the story of 'Taizong's fine willow parade', the thorny gate, the flying fox army, and the sentence note army that were used as the background board by the fine willow camp are not kittens and dogs.

For example, the general of the Flying Fox Army is the general of the chariot cavalry, Ling Mian; The person who commanded the army was Su Yi, the prime minister of Chu State; The head of the Beidi Army is called Zhang Wu, this person doesn't need to be introduced too much, as long as you know, this person is an absolute henchman who followed Emperor Taizong from Daiguo; And the Thorn Gate Army is even more amazing, the person who commands them is surnamed Liu, and he is a real Han clan relative, the current Zongzheng, and the future King of Chu.

The Hosoyanagi camp can step on their bodies to get on the top, and these people haven't even let out a fart.

It's impossible to think about!

There is no first in the text, and there is no second in the martial arts.

Even if these generals are all incomparably generous and open-minded heroes, they don't care about it.

The eight masters below may not be.

You say you're the best in the world?

Okay, let's make a comparison.

Without the diamond diamond, the reputation of the fine willow camp, which is the first in the world, has long been thrown to the ground by the Qiu Ba of the Southern Army and the Northern Army, and they have stepped on 10,000 feet.

And the truth is: the history of Hosoliuying is older than many people think.

This army can be traced back to the pro-military camp that followed Zhou Bo to conquer the world during the war at the end of the Qin Dynasty.

After the establishment of the Han Dynasty, the world gradually became peaceful.

Many soldiers were disarmed and returned to the field.

Emperor Gao Liu Bang was a particularly generous founding king, and the old brothers who followed him to fight the world did not treat any of them badly after he won the world.

The feudal marquis with great merit, and even the meritorious generals who died in battle, and their heirs were also posthumously crowned.

The credit is not enough for the marquis.

Liu Bang didn't ignore it.

In the Han law, regarding the legal status of the three elders, it is necessary to emphasize the sentence 'more complex than Shandong'.

The so-called 'Bishan Fu' means that it is treated like the old brothers in Shandong.

At this time, Shandong was not an administrative term, but a geographical term, referring to the vast area east of the Taihang Mountains.

The so-called Shandong old brothers refer to the old soldiers who follow Liu Bang to fight the world and never give up.

In the early Han Dynasty, these people enjoyed extremely high political status and great social privileges.

But there are also many soldiers, either because of their disability or because they suffer from strict war syndrome, and they have almost lost the ability to live on their own.

Whether it is Liu Bang or the generals of these soldiers, they must not be able to watch these old brothers who were born and die with them to fend for themselves.

As a result, many princes brought these old brothers back to their feudal kingdoms, gave them official positions or land, and took care of them nearby.

These old brothers, after settling down, of course, will marry wives and have children.

The so-called dragon gives birth to the dragon, and the phoenix gives birth to the phoenix.

The children of soldiers, hearing about it, will of course become soldiers like their parents.

This is the so-called Shomon family.

And these people, naturally, will be because of their parents and the education they received since childhood. Loyal to the princes of their place.

So, when you open the history books, you will often find out. The gentleman who was still fighting cocks and lackeys in Chang'an one second, and the next second he was put into battle, and he could actually look like it, and he had an eye.

For example, the Pingyang Hou Cao clan, which has been passed down for several generations, is known for its weakness, but it is in battle. But he can also be on his own and not fall into the prestige of his ancestors.

The same is true for Zhou Bo.

brought all the disabled veterans and brothers in his own barracks to his fiefdom. Jiangxian resettlement in Hedong County.

When Zhou Bo was driven home by Emperor Taizong to farm, in order to protect himself, Zhou Bo even organized an army in his waiting country and hid armor and crossbows.

As a result, it was served in a pot. His own people also went to Tingwei Prison for half a year.

If it weren't for Empress Dowager Bo's intercession. It must be going in vertically and coming out horizontally.

And Zhou Yafu's fine willow battalion, in fact, is based on the soldiers trained by Zhou Bo for decades, and spent four years in Hedong County, bit by bit.

The fine willow battalion, even if it is a low-level officer, such as the tun commander and the team leader. The ancestor may be the old pawn who followed Zhou Bo to conquer the world.

Father, son, grandchildren, three generations in the army. What's more, he grew up with Zhou Yafu since he was a child.

Such an army, in this feudal era, is really invincible.

And after the war between the Xiongnu and Wu Chu, the prestige of the Xiliu Battalion is really resounding throughout the world.

It is said that even the Xiongnu Shan Yuting paid special attention to the fine willow camp.

The envoy who went to the Xiongnu came back to report that the Huns always asked about the camp and the story in the camp of the Xiliu camp.

And as the trump card of the Han family.

The station of the fine willow camp is actually on the west side of Shanglin Garden, north of the Wei River, and south of the pickaxe pond. (Note 1)

It is also from this that the Hosoyanagi Camp is named.

The mountains here are high and densely forested, but there are deep valleys in the mountains.

Therefore, during the Qin period, the Qin army built a storage base here to supply the construction needs of Afang Palace.

The Han dynasty still used it as a military base and a transit center for the Shaofu treasury.

Therefore, the traffic of this fine willow warehouse is very developed, and the Chi road is directly repaired to the door of the valley, and the builders of the Qin and Han dynasties are on both sides of the road, extensively repairing the beacon platform and the sentry post.

Ordinary people couldn't get close at all, and they couldn't get close to the station of the Han ace Xiliu Battalion.

Liu Che's guard of honor slowly drove on the gallop in front of the fine willow warehouse.

Along the way, there were countless cavalry patrolling back and forth, heavily guarded outposts and checkpoints.

Because, until now, the fine willow warehouse still plays its function of circulating military supplies.

Even the largest bow and crossbow workshop in the Han Dynasty is in the fine willow warehouse.

The world-famous rhubarb crossbow is produced here, as well as the most sophisticated repeating crossbows.

After Liu Che ascended the throne, he put a production site for experimental ordnance such as Mo knives, ox horn bows, and long lances here, in case of equipping the army nearby, and timely feedback on the use of the use, so that the craftsmen of Shaofu could make timely improvements and adjustments.

And Luo Ying, who was specially brought by Liu Che's side, got on the gallop and entered the warning range of this fine willow warehouse, his face became like white paper, and even his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

As the trump card of the Han army, the Xiliu Battalion now enjoys the same treatment as Hu Benwei and Yu Linwei, and even surpasses it.

The best weapons, the latest equipment, the most rigorous training, the highest level of food standards.

Especially after receiving Liu Che's instructions, the Xiliu Battalion sent a group of flower shelves out to patrol.

These cavalrymen, all in armor, even the horses, are covered with a layer of solid iron armor, holding heavy riding spears, in this era, anyone who sees it will be scared!

It's just a pity that such a cavalry is not of much use in actual combat at present.

It's just that it looks good.

And after the army used it, the response was also very bad.

The generals felt that these heavy cavalry were difficult to use, and it was difficult to find logistical pressures and suitable carrying horses.

The soldiers felt that the iron armor was too heavy, and the riding spears were too heavy, not only were they difficult to wear, but what was more troublesome was that in the summer, no one could survive a quarter of an hour in such an iron shell.

Shaofu produced a total of 300 sets of similar heavy cavalry equipment, and then it was discontinued.

At present, this kind of heavy cavalry is used as a guard of honor for the royal family and a face guard in front of Yidi.

The status is similar to that of the ancestor of Modao, the horse sword.

However, the Mo knife improved by Shaofu was widely praised in the Han army, which was dominated by foot soldiers.

The crossbowmen, in particular, loved this long knife weapon that was good at covering and protecting their vulnerable flanks.

The generals shouted every day that they wanted to organize 10,000 Mo sword soldiers in five years. 50,000 people exploded in ten years.

However, these mentions were vetoed by Liu Che without any suspense.

Are you kidding!

The casting of the Mo knife, even after improvement. It's also very complicated, and it's extremely expensive.

A Mo knife costs at least 30 catties of fine iron or crude steel, worth tens of thousands of dollars, and if you add the training and food expenses of the Mo knife soldiers, it is almost enough to support a cavalry with one person and two horses.

Liu Checai will not do such a loss-making transaction!

The Modao class is in his plan. It's a support class, not a main combat class.

The real direction of the future, it should be the hussars and cuirassiers.

After being emperor for so long. Liu Che also understood why Modao was only prosperous in the Tang Dynasty.

First of all, of course, the Tang Empire was rich and capricious. Afford to waste it.

Secondly. When the Tang Empire was in its heyday, it chased the dead and chased the north, and hung and beat a qiē.

It has plenty of pastures, enough horses, and enough cavalry to protect the Moswords.

And what about the Han family?

Now it is only a mere 100,000 cavalry, and there is a shortage of war horses and fine pastures.

The rich Hetao region is still in the hands of the enemy today.

Hun cavalry. You can rush into your home at any time.

In such a situation, vigorously develop the Mo knife soldiers. It's brain pumping.

Just like in World War II, the British were obsessed with being thick and big, and as a result, they were blown up by an aircraft carrier.

Of course, the Modao soldiers still have to develop.

But not now.

At the very least, it is necessary to wait until the Han family dominates the universe and controls the grassland.

By that time, Han, like Tang, had a vast world of new conquests and vast vassals and colonies to protect and defend.

At that time, that's when the Mo Dao Soldiers really play a role.

As for now?

Honestly farming and raising horses, desperately blasting cavalry is the king.

It's just a pity that Luo Ying doesn't know these and won't understand them.

At this moment, the young man's entire mind was the heavy cavalry that had just passed by exuding a murderous aura.

Luo Ying couldn't imagine that if the Han Dynasty sent such cavalry to the south, how would the Yue people resist?

I'm afraid that the Han people just stood still, and the Yue sergeants cut all their weapons, and they couldn't help these heavy cavalry who used steel to protect themselves.

What's more, these are cavalry.

Cavalry that came and went like the wind, without a trace.

Even if Luo Ying was kept in captivity in Chang'an, he had heard of the prestige of the Huns.

In the young man's heart, at this moment, he remembered what Xu Guan had said to him in the past: "The Hun cavalry can travel hundreds or even hundreds of miles in a day and night, and the Han army often falls into a place where it cannot be fought or withdrawn, so with the strength of the Han Dynasty, it can only defend, but not counterattack!" ”

The Hun cavalry could make the Han Dynasty only defend and not counterattack.

The cavalry of the Han Dynasty, especially the heavy cavalry of Fang Cai, could not easily advance to the capital of Minyue under Dongzhi City?

recalled his childhood memories in Minyue Kingdom.

Luo Ying felt that if the Yue people were armed with the Han Dynasty's army, they would probably be no different from an egg encountering a stone.

It's simply powerless!

"Could it be that the bloodline of Emperor Yu, the grandson of the great prince, can only escape across the sea and escape overseas?" Luo Ying only needs to think about it, if the Han army goes straight to the territory of Minyue in the future, he will be extremely desperate for the future.

It has to be said that during this period, the coastal areas of China were not divided between the Yue people and the princes.

Everyone has a common psychological preparation.

'If something happens, i.e., rafting overseas......

That's what Tian Heng did at the beginning.

I couldn't beat it, I couldn't hold it anymore, so I took a boat across the sea and went overseas to find a new world.

Historically, many regimes, on the eve of their demise, have also made such preparations.

"The Han soldiers are far away, the ministers have stopped, they can attack, they are willing to receive the rest of the king's troops to attack it, and they can't win it, but they flee into the sea, and it's not too late."

Lü Jia and Jiande had already fallen into the sea with hundreds of their subordinates at night, and went west by boat -- BY Taishi Gong's "Biography of Nanyue".

'The king sent troops to attack South Vietnam without invitation, so the soldiers of the Son of Heaven came to punish him. Today's Han soldiers are strong, now they are fortunate to win, and then they are more profitable, and they will eventually destroy the country, and now they will kill the king to thank the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven will listen, stop the army, and consolidate the end of a country; If you do not listen, you will fight; If you don't win, you will die in the sea'BY-Yu Shan, the younger brother of the king of Minyue.

Looking at it like this, it is really a bit similar to the second senior brother in Journey to the West.

But it is a preparation that must be made by all regimes.

As a last resort, at least there is a way out.

It's just that the ancient navigation technology was very backward, and the sea routes on the charts were almost zero.

Even though everyone has a plan to run away in case of emergency, unlike the second senior brother, the second senior brother knows that he can go back to Gao Laozhuang.

But the parties do not know what to do once they are in the sea.

Luo Ying's heart was even heavier.

Although the people of Minyue are good at fishing and hunting, they often go out to sea to fish.

However, the danger and unknown of the sea are deeply engraved in the blood of all Minyue people.

Therefore, the Minyue people's nest dwelling (dry stilt house), hanging coffin burial, chiseled teeth, these traditions show the Minyue people's desire to stay away from the sea and water.

But in order to survive, they had to go to sea and get food in the water.

Although Luo Ying came to Chang'an when he was young.

However, because of Xu Guan, I still know and know the traditions and customs of Minyue.

Thinking about the suffering of his compatriots, he recalled the happiness and well-being of the people of the Han Dynasty he saw not long ago, and then he had the deterrence of iron horses.

All kinds of pressure, all kinds of confusion, all kinds of ideas, all one after another.

Luo Ying's hand became tighter and tighter.

Finally, he was bold, raised his head, looked at the emperor of the Han Dynasty who was sitting on the top of the chariot, knelt down respectfully, bowed three times, and asked: "Your Majesty is also the Holy Son of Heaven, the grace spreads all over the four seas, the grass, trees, birds and beasts, and is also blessed by the Holy Grace of Your Majesty. ”

I have to say that this Luo Ying is very smart.

He felt that since he would definitely not be able to fight, the territory of the Han Dynasty was countless times larger than that of Minyue, and the population was even larger, and he didn't know how much.

In front of this giant-like Han Dynasty.

Min Yue Guo is like a child.

Moreover, the first king of Minyue Wuzhu was established by Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty.

Luo Ying felt that it should be no problem to ask the suzerainty country for advice on what to do with Minyue in the future.

Didn't the emperor of the Han Dynasty call himself 'the king's land under the whole world, and the king and minister on the shore of the land'?

Minyue is a foreign vassal canonized by Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty, with the royal seal given by Emperor Gao, and the sons of heaven in all dynasties have also recognized and canonized.

As long as Minyue is obedient enough and surrendered enough, as long as the emperor of the Han Dynasty still wants face, he will not forcibly seize Minyue Sheji and destroy Minyue Zongmiao.

After being in Chang'an for so long, Luo Ying still has a certain understanding of the political ecology of the Han family.

I know that the Han Dynasty paid attention to 'teachers are famous', and paid more attention to 'survival and continuity'.

As long as you don't provoke this tiger, this tiger shouldn't be shameless and eat people.

Of course, such a naïve idea is only available to a young man like Luo Ying.

Adult kings and superiors who are slightly qualified will not have the slightest trust in the discipline of other rulers.

When Liu Che heard this, he smiled slightly.

"I am the lord of the world, I am ordered by the heavens, on behalf of the heavens, Minyue, Donghai, Nanyue, all my subjects, the Qing immediately asks me, I will not hide my selfishness!"

Liu Che was waiting for Luo Ying's question.

Because Liu Che knew very well that when Luo Ying asked this question, the future king of Minyue would inevitably be assimilated by the Han civilization.

You must know that once such things as ideology and ideology are finalized, they will not be chosen by anyone.

Later, the Soviet Union collapsed because of the complete collapse of the entire ideological front.

From the rulers to the common people, they were all fooled.

As a result, the polar bear, which once made the entire Western world tremble and fear, collapsed overnight.

Even Midi didn't expect their results to be so outstanding.

But Liu Che was not in a hurry to answer, because the heat was still a little short.

It is necessary to completely destroy Luo Ying's self-confidence in his Minyue.

Therefore, Liu Che said: "It's just that I don't want to talk about this topic yet, after Qing and I finish watching the Xiliu Camp, I will tell Sù Qing again, how should Minyue ......" (to be continued......
