Zhang Keda returned to the provincial government office and immediately ordered the Denglai soldiers and seven guards to prepare for war.
They must gather in Dengzhou within ten days.
Military law is outdated and ruthless.
This time, if there are still people who are disobedient and procrastinating when sending troops to serve the king, Zhang Keda would not mind taking the opportunity to clean up the two thorns and let Qiu Ba of the guard station take care of them.
As for the Denglai soldiers, they were all under the control of Zhang Keda's direct descendants.
He ordered the Dengzhou Camp and Laizhou Camp to each send out a thousand cavalry and a thousand infantry, leaving a thousand cavalry and a thousand infantry to garrison Denglai.
Lai, just in case something unexpected happens.
Zhang Keda immediately ordered people to collect the food and salary for this trip.
This must be provided by Wang Tingshi.
Since he wants to advance to the next level, he has to pay something.
Zhang Keda went on this trip desperately and asked Wang Tingshi to provide some money and food.
Once If you succeed, you can still be promoted, but you will lose countless benefits.
I believe Wang Tingshi can handle it.
Furthermore, without the corresponding money and food, how could he mobilize these troops?
You must know that this is a confrontation with the notorious Jiannu, and there is not enough food and salary to maintain it.
Maybe most of the troops will be scattered after leaving Dengzhou. .
Moreover, when they arrived in Gyeonggi, where would they receive their pay?
How many cities would dare to open the city to put them in and supply food?
You must know that random soldiers are like bandits, and the gentry has always been afraid of soldiers.
Food and salary will lead to military chaos.
Finally, Zhang Keda specifically ordered the commander of the capital, Xiao Jinghaiwei, and Zhao Lie from Zuoqianhusuo, Qianhu, to send a thousand troops to accompany the army.
Although Zhang Keda was named the commander of Denglai Dusi, he was temporarily acting as his successor.
Zhang Keda did not want to get too involved in the chores of Denglai Guards.
After all, sooner or later, he would be transferred out of Denglai.
This was a common practice.
The guards were all military households who had lived for more than a hundred years.
They had many entanglements and constant disputes, so Zhang Keda asked several generals to command his fellow magistrates and governors to take charge of general affairs, while he stayed out of the affairs.
The person in charge of the general affairs of the Denglai Du Division is Tang Qian, who has served as the commander of the capital for more than ten years.
Then there are Yang Jingtang, who is responsible for military inspections, training, and food pay, and Li Youde, who is responsible for farming and warehouses.
When Zhang Keda's order arrived at Dusi, Tang Qian was surprised.
He summoned Yang Jingtang.
"Master Yang.
This is your duty.
According to Mr.
Zhang's wishes, you can send the document."
Li Youde said with a smile.
He knew the grievances between Yang Jingtang and the Zhao family.
At that time, he was present when Zhao Haiming slapped Yang Jingtang in the face in front of Li Song.
Yang Jingtang arranged for Chang Runing to serve as the commander of Jinghaiwei.
Anyone with a discerning eye would know his intention to plot Shidao at a glance.
He didn't recruit Li Youde because Li Youde was familiar with Zhao Haiming.
Furthermore, this is also Yang Jingtang's responsibility.
Yang Jingtang read Zhang Keda's warrant.
He was overjoyed.
He thought that this domineering Yamen officer had offended Zhang Keda so much that he asked a thousand households and a guard station to send a thousand troops to fight against Jiannu.

Isn't this Zhao Lie's kid offending Master Zhang so much?
What is it.
Yang Jingtang has been very depressed in recent days because Chang Runing no longer takes action against Zhao Lie.
He has gone through all the troubles to move Chang Runing to the position of commander of Jinghaiwei.
Chang Runing only made a slight gesture and stopped playing.
It was too concessionary.
People are going crazy.
Yang Jingtang has regarded Chang Runing as his enemy, and his son's actual job will definitely be gone.
Chang Runing also came to explain that Zhang Keda valued Zhao Lie, which made him half-believe it.
Bah, to value a general so much is to let him die with him.
Is there anyone who values him so much?
Well, Chang Runing, we are not done yet. .
Yang Jingtang's military order was based on Zhang Keda's and ordered Zhao Lie to lead at least a thousand well-armed soldiers to go out with the main town.
This military order was to humiliate Zhao Lie.
He knew that it would be impossible for a thousand-household army to send troops at full capacity now.
We would be lucky to have 700 soldiers.
But Zhao Lie has a good old man, wouldn't it be enough to let him command more soldiers and armor?
I believe Zhang Keda doesn't mind his subordinates leading more soldiers and horses into battle.
This will also enhance his strength.
Zhao Lie didn't know about the situation in Dengzhou.
He just knew that the troops sent by Qianhu must have a number one.
As far as he and Chang Runing were concerned, this was a certainty.
Zhao Lie's top priority now is to seize the opportunity to train the Polu army and wait for the order to go out.
Most of the war horses in front of me were about 1.5 meters tall, much taller than the Mongolian horses.
Most of them were gray and brown in color.
The legs are long, the waist is thin, the body is graceful, and the muscles are exposed.
At a glance, you can tell that this horse is tall and very fast.
"Sir, these nearly 600 horses are all male horses.
They are the result of breeding Andalusian war horses and Mongolian horses.
They are just over three years old and less than four years old this year.
The other male horses and mares stay at the Jeju ranch to continue.
Breeding."
Wang Haizhou reported.
Zhao Lie heard that hundreds of war horses that were hybrids of Andalusian horses and Mongolian horses joined the cavalry, and hurriedly came to watch.
"The speed of this horse is much higher than that of the Mongolian horse within two miles.
However, according to the daily march, this horse can run about several miles slower than the Mongolian horse.
This has been tried many times in Jeju."
Wang Haizhou said carefully.
"Can this horse adapt to the severe cold weather?"
Zhao Lie asked.
"It is said that this horse is kept in the wild every day in winter according to the instructions of the adults.
It only enters the stable during the extremely cold season.
However, Jeju's winter is much warmer than that of Liaodong, so it's hard to say."
Wang Haizhou said.
Zhao Lie nodded, it would take some time for these horses to fully adapt to the cold in Liaodong.

However, there is still no problem in riding it within the customs.
Zhao Lie ordered five war horses to be moved out and raced together with the five Mongolian horses.
The horses galloped, closing their front and rear legs to a great extent, and their movements were graceful and graceful.
They threw the Mongolian horses more than ten feet away at one mile, and two The gap between inside and outside reached more than thirty feet, and it was really as fast as lightning.
Zhao Lie nodded with satisfaction.
Finally, the gold and silver were not wasted.
Today, four years later, he finally saw some results.
"Sir, Jeju Craftsman Camp quickly made leather armor for this horse, so that the horse also has armor, and its defense power is greatly increased."
Wang Haizhou saw Zhao Lie's happy expression and became more angry.
"Oh," Zhao Lie was surprised.
He even had his vest out.
"Take me to see it."
You need to take a closer look.
If the vest's defense is very good, it will make your horse more vulnerable to Jiannu's arrows.
A chance to save one's life.
Wang Haizhou summoned his soldiers to put leather armor on several war horses.
"Sir, this horse is tall and powerful and can carry heavy loads, so the leather armor is made of double layers of cowhide, which can block the attack of Jiannu's arrows.
However, heavy arrows can still pierce the leather armor.
However, if it is iron armor, the horsepower is still insufficient. , and besides, it can’t be spent.”
Of course, Zhao Lie knew that if it was a purebred Andalusian war horse with a body shape that was slightly inferior to that of a white man, it would still be possible for both the man and the horse to wear iron armor.
However, this hybrid horse was still shorter than the Andalusian war horse and had less horsepower.
One step ahead.
Zhao Lie is satisfied to be able to wear leather armor.
Zhao Lie ordered his men to use a stone bow to shoot at the vest at fifty paces.
The arrow barely broke through the leather armor, and at thirty paces, it could penetrate half an inch.
Such a heavy arrow can penetrate the armor and penetrate deep into the armor.
However, the horse's muscles are strong and thick.
As long as it is not the horse's legs, the horse's head and other places with less muscle are just skin wounds.
Zhao Lie laughed.
Name this horse Shidao Horse, and immediately order to reward the craftsmen and armor craftsmen with five silver coins each, and the horse farm and others with one hundred silver coins each.
There is hope for his own cavalry to become an army.
Although the price of the horses that cost money to breed is about the same as the purchased Mongolian horses, Zhao Lie can use the horse's horsepower to make up for the lack of cavalry combat power. , The half-baked cavalry with bare horses can compete, but of course they need to be trained.
Today's soldiers are still not able to skillfully use weapons on horses, and they have to rely on formation to defeat the enemy with numbers.
Only then can we have a chance to win.
Since the horses are new, the men and horses have to run in for half a month before they can go into battle.
Therefore, riding is always the hardest these days.
Not only do they need to constantly break in and train the horses, but they also have to get the cavalry familiar with their respective horses.
Some of them are busy.
Zhao Lie took a tour and saw that everyone was very busy, so he went back to his hometown.
He was about to go on an expedition, and he had to spend time with Alexandra.
Recently, she was worried about Zhao Lie's current campaign and felt a little uneasy.
Alexandra is sewing for Zhao Lie.
Her needlework is not very good.
Marta did all the previous needlework.
After arriving at Shidao, in order to take care of the orphans in the orphanage, he learned needlework and is now an expert.

Today, she was putting the finishing touches on Zhao Lie, who didn't like silk.
Therefore, what Alexandra sewed for him was made of Songjiang white twill, which was thick and sweat-absorbent.
Alexandra finally finished finishing the work.
She bit off the needle and thread with her teeth and unfolded the clothes to see if there were any problems.
Suddenly she felt something.
She looked to one side and saw Zhao Lie standing there with a smile, "Lie , why didn’t you tell me when you came back?”
Zhao Lie put his arms around her, "I just came back from the barracks and came to see you.
I didn't expect you to still be sewing.
Thank you for your hard work."
Alexandra felt sweet in her heart when she heard Zhao Lie's gratitude.
"Lie, try it on."
"Okay, let me see my wife's craftsmanship."
Zhao Lie said with a smile.
He didn't expect that he would finally have a wife to help him in his two lifetimes, and he felt very comfortable in his heart.
Zhao Lie was about to change clothes when he saw Alexandra cover her mouth with her hand, come to the spittoon in the room, and retching several times.
"Why, Yali, I feel unwell today."
Zhao Lie asked with concern.
In this era, minor illnesses are also serious matters.
"I don't know why, but I haven't been feeling well since this morning.
I always feel nauseous."
Alexandra frowned slightly.
Zhao Lie had no experience in later life, but he had seen a lot.
He suspected that Alexandra was pregnant, and did not rule out the possibility that Alexandra was unwell.
He hurriedly asked Mr.
Wang from Shidao Medical Center to be found. .
After Mr.
Wang arrived, he diagnosed Alexandra's pulse with a solemn expression.
This was Shidao's mistress who was ill, so she should not be careless.
However, as the pulse diagnosis continued, the corners of Mr.
Wang's mouth curled up slightly.
After gathering the utensils slowly, he stood up and bowed to salute, "Congratulations, sir.
Congratulations, madam.
Madam has a happy pulse."
Zhao Lie was so eager, but he encountered a slow man, and was extremely speechless.
However, he was also overjoyed when he heard his happy pulse.
How could he not be happy that he was having a baby for the first time in his life.
Alexandra was overjoyed, she was in good health, and she was pregnant.
What a double joy.
"Come here and watch the reward."
Zhao Lie shouted.
"Sir, how much is the reward?"
Yu Dabao, a black man, came in and asked ignorantly.
Damn, Zhao Lie hates that he can use his hands to touch Yu Dabao.
When will he be more clever and say, "Mr.
Wang will be rewarded with ten taels of silver."

"My lord," Yu Dabao replied.
"Thank you, sir."
Mr.
Wang cupped his hand, "Madam's pulse is strong, you just need to pay a little attention.
If you feel unwell, Wang will be there at any time."
Zhao Lie sent someone to take Mr.
Wang back to the hospital.
Zhao Lie rewarded each person in the house with two taels of silver and had dinner together to celebrate together in the evening.
Zhao Meng also immediately returned home to visit his younger siblings.
He was also the first of the third generation of the old Zhao family.
"Second brother, you have to congratulate Wei Zhan.
My parents will be surprised when they find out."
Zhao Meng said with a smile.
"There's no rush.
I plan to go on an expedition right away and report back when I pass by Weihai.
But I need to hurry up on my eldest brother's marriage.
My younger brother and I have children," Zhao Lie advised.
He knew that Zhao Meng was frightened by the Zhao Qin family's marriages and blind dates.
Zhao Meng hated others taking advantage of his disability, so he never mentioned the marriage.
"As soon as possible, I am also very envious of you and your siblings."
Zhao Meng also relaxed.
Zhao Lie was overjoyed that his eldest brother finally understood
