Chapter 194
"Poop poop" finally closed his mouth, and Ling Qingyu quickly spit sand.
"In charge." A man in front of the horses rode a tall horse with black fur, added a few whips, ran to the carriage, just stopped at the seat let out by Han Liang next to the driver's seat, took off the cloth on his head, and Meng Su called with a smile.
"So many people? Are you going to rob?" Ling Qingyu unconsciously pointed to the group of men behind, who were wearing gray clothes, but looked very tough, iron hearted and bandit, and said.
"Yes, we're here to rob the boss." Meng Su laughed, and then said to Han Liang, "the carriage inside can't get in. Leave it to us."
"Do you want to walk?" Ling Qingyu was silly and asked.
"Do you mind riding a horse with me?" Meng Su stretched out his hand and asked.
Ling Qingyu's eyes suddenly lit up. Just as she was about to nod her head, she heard Yan San next to her: "I mind."
Meng Su smiled, waved to his men to bring several empty horses, and then said, "but third master, do you know the way?"
Yan San was stunned. Seeing Ling Qingyu's eager and happy appearance, he jumped out of the driver's seat, took out a cloak from the carriage, changed the one on her, and then said, "be careful."
"Well." Ling Qingyu answered, and then caught Meng Su's hand.
Meng Su pulled her onto her horse and sat in front of her. "But I'm ready," she asked
"Okay." Ling Qingyu nodded. Meng Su might as well have clamped his horse's belly. The big black horse ran out and ran forward quickly.
Yan San cursed in a low voice, took the horse and jumped up, catching up.
The big men laughed. Someone had begun to hand over with Han Liang. The carriage on the mountain couldn't go up, so someone had to carry it up.
It is already deep in the Loess Plateau, with crisscross ridges, ravines and rugged trails. It is really difficult to walk.
Meng Su's horse leaped vertically and horizontally in the gully, and the scenery on both sides retreated like the wind, and Ling Qingyu cried out in surprise.
"Afraid?" Meng Su put his arm around her waist and asked with a smile.
Ling Qingyu grabbed the protrusion on the saddle, jumped up, grabbed Meng Su's arm quickly, and then slipped his ass on the saddle, and quickly grabbed the saddle back. His forehand was busy and his feet were messy. With this tight hug, his body immediately had a focus, relaxed, and sighed, "young boy, your sister is old, and can't stand such a scare."
"Don't worry, I won't let you fall." Meng Su laughed, and then accelerated again.
His body leaned forward, his chest was tightly attached to Ling Qingyu's back, and one hand wrapped around her waist, as if both of them were attached to the back of a horse.
This posture made Ling Qingyu's sliding body immediately fixed, which really enjoyed the fleeting speed. In addition, the horse leaped in the mountains, which stimulated and made people's heart beat. After slowly adapting, Ling Qingyu only felt that his heart was suddenly emptied, and there was only full of happiness. Although he still screamed from time to time, there was joy and joy in the sound.
Yan San's equestrian skills were far inferior to Meng Su's, and he was soon left behind. Hearing that the voice from the mountains had changed, he took a smile and waited for Meng Su's men to lead the way.
Turning around countless valleys, Meng Su slowed down his horse and pointed to the front and said, "look."
It was a relatively high hill. A towering earth castle was built on the flat half of the hill. It was surrounded by tall earth and stone walls, and Zhaimen and Luzhai were set up. The back was leaning against the hill, and the front was a steep wall. The terrain was extremely dangerous.
"Wow!" Ling Qingyu exclaimed.
"That's our horse farm behind the mountain. The head of the family. Do you want to see Ling's iron kite?" Meng Su lowered his head and asked. Just as Ling Qingyu also raised his head, his lips inadvertently wiped her forehead.
"Good!" Ling Qingyu didn't notice this kind of detail at all.
Meng Su felt his heart was about to jump out, and he pressed down wildly, saying, "let's go and see." He rode around the stronghold and went back to the mountain.
The iron harrier is the trump card cavalry of Dangxiang people. Li Yuanhao established it alone. Li Yuanhao in this world is still as powerful as before, but he didn't meet the Zhao family's army in the Northern Song Dynasty, so he was pressed by Zhou on the front line of Yinchuan. The time of founding the people's Republic of China has also retreated for many years, but now it is also the founding of the people's Republic of China. This iron harrier is the trump card army of Dangxiang Xia country, of which the captains were the valiant generals at that time and the most brave soldiers of Xia country, It is the trump card among the trumps of Dangxiang Xia state. In addition to using it as the guard of the supreme ruler, it is also used as the "front army" to rush forward. According to records, this cavalry is well-equipped. It is good at riding horses, heavy armor, and can't Pierce. It is twisted with hooks and ropes. Although it is dead, it doesn't fall immediately. In case of battle, the iron cavalry will rush out first, and in case of chaos, the infantry will attack, and the infantry will enter with their cavalry. Before the appearance of the Mongolian cavalry, this cavalry was one of the most fierce cavalry in the world, and it was also the nightmare of all party enemies.
After knowing Yang Zhao's identity, Ling Qingyu discussed the iron kite with Yang Zhao and them. Although Yang Zhao stationed in Heishui pass, he also fought with Dangxiang people on a small scale for several times. He probably knew this cavalry, so at the beginning, Ling Qingyu began to make weapons and armor in Lingjia village, using this cavalry as an imaginary enemy to build a heavy cavalry of Yang Zhao.
However, when the cavalry team on the vast grassland on the back mountain appeared in front of her, Ling Qingyu was still greatly frightened.
I'm afraid the equipment she gave Yang Zhao is all here. Even people and horses are red armor. The spears are like a forest, and the armor is anti cold, and the evil spirit takes people away. Standing there like that gives people an absolute sense of oppression.
"I have 3000 heavy armor, 2000 light armor, and Du Ming has 5000 light armor. It is made according to this system." Meng Su said proudly. The equipment of light armor is not complete, but Guan Xiao has begun to build a forging workshop at the iron mine on Hedong Road, and the coal mine and iron mine have started. It is estimated that before long, those equipment will be delivered one after another.

Ling Qingyu swallowed his saliva and asked, "well, can I ask? What is this going to do?" I thought it was the labor of reclaiming wasteland. This pit father's army is fully armed, okay!
"Everyone here is fighting for only one person." Meng Su bowed his head and said that if the Wang family wanted to fight again, even if I fought to the last person, I could also enter Bianjing.
Ling Qingyu smiled bitterly. I just want to be a businessman and a big businessman who controls the economy. I don't want to rebel!
"Don't worry, we don't do that kind of thing, but if they want to bully you again, they also want to think about our cavalry." Aware of her thoughts, Meng Su laughed. Such a small number of troops is not enough for rebellion, but threats can still be made.
Ling Qingyu had a flash of inspiration in his head and asked, "does the Zhao family army only listen to General Zhao?"
"Yes, the armies of the four northern routes are all under the jurisdiction of the Zhao family. The sergeants in the army only know the general of the Zhao family who leads the army, and I don't know whether the emperor is also." Meng sudao.
No wonder Zhao Kuangyin wanted a cup of wine to release his military power at the beginning, and then the whole Northern Song Dynasty's defense generals were the same as the defense thieves.
"Moreover," Meng Su waved to the neatly arranged team below and said, "this is to show you that we are fully armed. Usually, we are not like this. We are just tough and difficult border people."
Meng Su waved his hand, and the following teams gradually dispersed, and then a solemn atmosphere became a place of laughter.
There are no people here all the way. It is indeed a secret place. It is for the people to go out and for the soldiers to return. In front of it is the stronghold and behind it is the training ground. Fortunately, they found such a place.
"Then what do you eat?" Ling Qingyu asked, this is all military training, who will farm?
"Corn and millet can already be planted around here. The harvest last autumn was very good, and we can be completely self-sufficient. Moreover, Mr. Han will transport the grain produced in the reclaimed wasteland outside the mountain, and we will carry it back by ourselves. Mr. Han said that he wanted us to ensure that we can make a private deal in the party discussion field as our reward." Meng Su laughed.
"Well, I will cut off the supply of spices in Xiongzhou and Bazhou this year, and increase some here." Ling Qingyu nodded.
"Well, we'll do it after you finish the transaction." Meng sudao.
"Ah? What hand?" Ling Qingyu looked back in surprise and asked.
"Du Ming took a fancy to a horse farm over there in Yanzhou, and we wanted to grab it. It was the border area, and we didn't say who it belonged to. Du Ming's stronghold was close to there. If we grabbed it, as long as it wasn't the pressure of the party and Xiang army, we could keep it." Seeing Ling Qingyu's face, Meng Su said, "there are many herbs over there. They produce good sheep, can raise horses, and there is salt." Seeing that Ling Qingyu's face still didn't change, he added: "there is a two-way area over there. Whoever grabs it counts. Dazhou can't collect taxes."
Is this a direct grab for private plots? Ling Qingyu was speechless, sighed and asked, "what if Dangxiang sent troops to attack?"
"They will be killed if there are few people. We are all cavalry. They can't run away from us. If they enter the territory of Dazhou, Dazhou will send troops." Meng Su laughed.
"But no one can get good from such a fight? Can't you hold it?" Ling Qingyu asked puzzled.
"They won't come to grab this piece if they are tired of it. When the time comes, the head of the household will give a face and give some money, even if they buy it." Meng Su's bright eyes. Naturally, you won't be allowed to come forward. There is originally the territory of a small clan of Dangxiang, and at the border between the two countries, Dangxiang belongs to a place that doesn't need to spend a lot of money to fight for. As long as the small clan is driven away, Dangxiang will acquiesce. If it weren't for Ling Qingyu's business ability, they wouldn't know how to make money if they grabbed the place.
Is that ok? Staring at Meng Su, Ling Qingyu said, "no amount of money is more important than your life. I don't need you to trade your life for resources."
Meng Su smiled and said, "don't worry, we won't mess around. To be honest, the army won't be tired if it doesn't often pull out to fight. If you want to maintain a strong morale, you need to let them have a war to fight. I won't let them die in this small-scale battle."
Ling Qingyu turned back and looked at Meng Su seriously. In his memory, he seemed to be the teenager with big eyes, round face and often smiling beside Yang Zhao. When she didn't notice, the teenager had already grown up. Now his face was angular and his facial features were as shaped as a knife. The original big, often moist eyes had also been deep, with sharp and firm, What kind of fighting can make such a young man as jade into such a calm, confident and sharp man like a blade.
"The head of the family doesn't like such Meng Su?" Touching his face, Meng Su's face was a little depressed and asked.
"No! I'm just feeling it." Ling Qingyu sighed deliberately and said, "why did you become such an excellent man when I wasn't careful?" It's true that a man in my family has just grown up. He feels like a mother!
Meng Su smiled again. At this time, his eyes were watery again. The familiar expression returned to his face and said, "it's good to be in charge."
"It's useless for me to like it. I need girls to like it. By the way, when I go back this time, some little girls are really nice, beautiful and good-natured. They are not as good as me..." Before he finished speaking, Meng Su had fiercely planned his horse to jump down the mountain stream and turned Ling Qingyu's words into a scream.
"The sheep were killed in the camp today. Does the head of the family like to eat?" Meng Su accelerated and asked in the wind.
"You have a sweetheart!" Lingqingyu cried unconsciously, if you have one, it's too impolite!
"Yes, Meng Su has already had a sweetheart, so don't bother to be in charge." Meng Su replied. It happened many years ago, earlier than general Yang, but you never cared about it.
When they came back to the stronghold from the back mountain, Yan San and others had arrived, and the stronghold was bustling.
Yan San reached out to embrace Ling Qingyu and asked, "have a good time?"
"It's so exciting!" Ling Qingyu nodded. Also shocked.
