After the good news was sent out, Zhang Keda had no intention of continuing to march to the capital.
He knew that the Ministry of War and the cabinet, including the emperor, would not believe his and Li Heng's reports so easily.
They would definitely send personnel to check and wait honestly in Zhuozhou.
With such great achievements in hand, I really have everything.
Zhang Keda no longer has the anxiety he felt when he landed in Tianjin.
His current achievements are enough to make him calm and relaxed.
Left and right, left and right, left and right, after three days of rest, the three broken troops of the Polu Army set out as usual every morning.
The route was to march in a circle along Zhuozhou City.
All the soldiers in full armor shouted in unison, the sound shook all directions, while Zhao Lie and his guards marched in front of the team.
Unlike other generals who led the troops on horseback, the whole team moved in neatly and calmly.
Zhang Keda stood on the top of the city and looked at the Polu army marching outside the city.
He twisted his beard and said nothing.
What flashed in his mind was Qi Jiguang and Master Qi.
Zhao Lie's troops had the shadow of Master Qi.
Could it be that Denglai should It is such a strange place, where literary affairs are not prosperous, but military ministers are prosperous.
There was Qi Ye in the past and Zhao Lie today.
They are all rare generals.
Ming Dynasty is lucky.
Wolf smoke rises, and the mountains and rivers look north. . . .
Twenty years, no one can resist. . .
How many loyal brothers and sisters are buried in a foreign land. . .
The singing voice was powerful and the momentum was majestic.
Zhang Keda couldn't help but be fascinated.
He recommended another talented person to the Ming Dynasty.
Out of disappointment with the situation in Denglai, Zhang Keda had decided to return to his familiar position in Nanjing.
It is estimated that Tian Da Gong can be put into operation.
As a relatively promising general in the Ming Dynasty, he knew how important Denglai was to the Ming Dynasty.
However, he was unable to do anything about the arrears of military pay and the corruption of the guard station.
He had tried his best to change it in the two years he had been in office, but he firmly believed in Zhao Lieding.
Will create a foundation in Denglai.
Zhao Lie can forge an iron army in a small thousand-household residence.
Such a figure will surely be as famous as Master Qi.
I would like to help him before leaving.
It is also a favor to Zhao Lie and a favor for Denglai.
It feels good to retain some of my original energy and make those bastards like Du Si and Wei Suo feel uncomfortable.
It's close to noon.
Zhang Keda, who was extremely interested in Zhao Lie's troops, strolled to the Polu Army station.
There was smoke from the cooking pots, and the Polu Army headquarters was also cooking.
The soldiers on duty at the gate of the camp were not surprised when they saw the mayor arriving.
This man has come several times and has agreed with Zhao Lie that once he comes, he will have guards accompany him in and then notify Zhao Lie.
"See the Lord of the Town."
Zhao Lie stepped forward and saluted.
"No need."
Zhang Keda waved his hand.
Taking the lead to walk into the camp, I saw more than a dozen steaming cauldrons in the open space, with pieces of meat rolling inside and the aroma of meat overflowing.

Zhang Keda took the horse spoon from the soldier on the side and tossed it in the cauldron a few times.
It was all horse meat and bones, and the meat soup was rich.
"Zhao Qianhu, as your subordinate's food, it's not bad."
Zhang Ke laughed.
"Well, these are dead horses left after two battles.
It would be a pity to throw them away.
Now my unit is fed with horse soup every three days, and the soldiers are all shouting and getting tired of eating."
Zhao Lie replied.
"Oh," Zhang Keda turned to the gang, "Why, these Qiu Ba gang are tired of eating."
"My lord, I don't know.
The boys have been working on the street almost every day since Gu'an.
I am a little tired of it.
Master Zhao ordered some other food to be prepared.
It's just that the slaves are retreating.
There is not much food in the city."
There are only about twenty people.
The year-old soldier replied at a loss.
This was the commander-in-chief of Denglai.
He had never seen such a high-ranking official before, and he felt nervous and sweating.
"Tsk, Zhao Qianhu.
Your subordinates are tired of eating, but the Denglai soldiers only eat sorghum, rice and pickles every day..."
Zhang Keda shook his head.
"Don't worry, sir.
After the meeting, I will send someone to send a few carriages and horses so that my Denglai warrior brothers can give them a beating."
Zhao Lie said with a smile.
He really didn't take the carriages and horses to heart.
In the Battle of Zhuozhou, hundreds of horses died.
"Zhao Qianhu, show this town your war horses."
Zhang Ke said.
As early as when they set out from Tianjin, some of the horses in Zhao Lie's cavalry aroused Zhang Keda's interest.
These horses were tall, with long legs and thin waists, which were completely different from Mongolian horses.
At first glance, the speed of the horses was much faster than the Mongolian horses.
Today, seeing Zhao Lie's troops march out, and the tall mounts that stayed up all night reminded Zhang Keda of these horses.
"Your Majesty, please."
Zhao Lie led the way and led Zhang Keda to the Cavalry Headquarters.
When Wang Haizhou saw the chief of the town arriving, he hurriedly saluted with all the soldiers.
Zhao Lie led Zhang Keda to a stable, and saw hundreds of war horses here.
They were all the same tall war horses.
They were half a foot taller than the Mongolian horses, with exposed muscles and strong bodies, but they were gentler in temperament.
Even if they were Zhang Keda waited for the stranger to approach, but he just neighed a few times and didn't react too fiercely.
What Zhang Keda saw was that his eyes were shining.
That general didn't like horses.
A good mount was hard to come by, let alone seeing so many here.
"Zhao Qianhu, where did these horses come from?"
Zhang Keda asked.

"Sir, these horses were purchased from the Franji people.
They are famous war horses in their country.
Each war horse costs more than three hundred taels of silver."
Zhao Lie replied, these are actually hybrid stones.
It's an island horse, but Zhao Lie can't say it directly.
This is a new horse bred by my racecourse, so he can only explain it like this.
"Hiss," Zhang Keda felt pain for a moment.
Good guy, a horse costs more than three hundred taels of silver, which is six or seven times that of a Mongolian horse.
Aren't these hundreds of horses worth more than a hundred thousand taels of silver?
Why is this Zhao family like this?
Rich.
"Zhao Lie, your Zhao family's horses and armor cost hundreds of thousands of taels of silver."
"Sir Bing, that's right," Zhao Lie responded.
Zhang Keda lost his mind for a moment.
"The foundation of my Zhao family is in Denglai.
As a military general, I have no strong soldiers and cannot even protect myself during the war.
My uncle in the family was killed in the Liaodong war.
Therefore, my father learned from the painful experience and spent all the family wealth on training the servants. , with such soldiers, this time my subordinates have finally lived up to the reputation of the Zhao family, made military exploits, and lived up to my father’s expectations.”
Well, Zhang Keda nodded.
The Zhao family is so courageous.
He thinks that the Zhao family has done their best for these soldiers and horses.
Not many generals have a fortune of one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand, but there must be some.
Especially the generals of Liao Town.
But I am afraid that this is the only one in the entire Ming Dynasty that can use all of it on military equipment.
Even his own family has more than 100,000 taels of silver, but he has never thought of using it on the military.
He only has the personal soldiers around him to take care of it.
Not bad.
Zhao Lie's success was something that the Zhao family had planned for a long time.
Thinking of this, Zhang Keda couldn't help but think of Zhao Haiming in his heart.
Now it seems that he is an old fox, keeping quiet, but there are gaps in it.
"Tsk, Mr.
Zhao, this war horse has long legs and a thin waist, and strong muscles.
It must be very fast."
Lu Sheng, the leader of Zhang Keda's personal guard, asked.
"This war horse can gallop within two miles, and the Mongolian horse is far from its opponent.
However, if you march every day, it can cover several miles less than the Mongolian horse every day.
In addition, it is not as cold-resistant as the Mongolian horse, and there must be some forage.
The Mongolian horses are fed with beans and grains, unlike the Mongolian horses that only need fodder."
Zhao Lie told the truth.
Shidao horses are more delicate than Mongolian horses.
The main reason is that Andalusian war horses grow in the warmer Iberia, unlike Mongolia, which grow in the harsh Mongolian grasslands.
Thousands of years of tempering have made Mongolian horses extremely strong.
"It's nothing.
The general's horses can be taken care of less."
Lu Sheng shook his head, it didn't matter.

Of course Zhao Lie knew this obvious meaning, "Although this horse is a bit delicate, it is fine in Denglai or the south.
I am willing to offer thirty war horses to the Lord of the Town so that the Lord of the Town can test ride them."
Let’s take a look at the pros and cons of this horse.”
"Oh, Zhao Qianhu, this town has absolutely no intention of doing this.
General Jingui can't afford this."
Zhang Keda shook his head.
"The general town cannot refuse.
Our Zhao family has just introduced this horse.
The general town has experienced hundreds of battles, so he must have his own experience with war horses.
After you try it, you will be able to know the advantages and disadvantages of this horse in battle, so you can tell him."
Subordinate."
Zhao Lie said in his heart, okay, don't just do it three times, just do it quickly.
"Sir, Zhao Qianhu Quanquan's intention should not be ignored, it is better to accept it."
Lu Sheng was already salivating.
"It's such a shame, Zhao Qianhu, don't do it again."
Zhang Ke laughed.
"Thank you, sir, this is just an example."
Zhao Lie thought, after this happened, I have something to ask of you now, how can such a good thing happen next time?
When I think of Zhang Keda, he has collected hundreds of slave leaders from his own family.
There were nearly a thousand war horses in the armored armor, and Zhao Lie felt a sharp pain.
Also in pain were Wai Lang Tang Quanhe, a staff member of the Ministry of War, and Liu Biao, the chief officer, who received an order from the Minister of War, Shen Yongmao, to go to Zhuozhou to inspect military achievements.
If the official is facing a formidable enemy, you must know that Shen Shangshu bluntly stated that this is what Long live the Lord values.
Since Gu Chenghe, the doctor in the official, cannot leave lightly, this hard job fell to Yuanwai Lang Tang Quanhe and the person in charge Liu Biao.
The two of them led more than ten servants and more than fifty guards from the capital camp.
They set off from the capital and ran southward crazily.
They knew that the farther away from the capital, the safer they were.
It was 150 miles from the capital to Zhuozhou.
It would take two days to get there by horseback.
It was not that the two of them had ridden horses before, but this was their first time riding such a long distance.
After only walking for half a day, the skin on the inner thighs of the two of them was abraded and the pain was unbearable.
However, they gritted their teeth and persisted.
They were joking.
This was in the wilderness.
The whereabouts of Jiannu scouts were elusive.
Once they encountered them, they would not know.
The so-called guards who were improvised around him were not reliable.
He would rather let Pi Ru suffer a little crime than get to Zhuozhou early.
His life was at stake.
Tang Quanhe and Liu Biao scolded Denglai and Zhang Ke as they headed south.
Damn it, you are falsely reporting your military exploits at this time, and let me take the risk of going south and suffer a lot.
Hey, don't you spend tens of thousands of taels when the time comes.
Yinzi, don’t blame me for making you look good then.
What, the military exploits are real.
It’s really funny.
Even the Ming Dynasty’s strongest military force, Liao Town, couldn’t resist the slaves.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
But you, a military town in the mainland, slaughtered thousands of enemies.
Damn, that’s an insult to Long live the war.
The cabinet minister lacks knowledge, and in the eyes of experts like us, it is all nonsense. s: Thank you to the friends who subscribed and recommended.
I won’t list them all.
They are all old friends.
