Eight hundred miles west of Xihai City, there is a barracks outside the base camp of the Western Regions Protectorate.

Generally speaking, such a barracks are the core focus of the first defense line.

The five hundred war horses are actually almost the same as the number of war horses in such a barracks.

There are about 300 people in the barracks. Because of the large number of deserts in the Western Regions, the war horses in these barracks can be freely raised on the grasslands around the barracks. Speaking of which, these barracks are somewhat like the nomadic tents of small tribes on the grasslands.

There is no water in any location in the Western Regions, so controlling the water source is equivalent to controlling the lifeline.

Of course, radiating from the water source and then outward is the stationed post.

There are about five people per post, some of which are a little less than three, and some are a little more than ten.

The small barracks are stuck at the key points of the water source, and the post is the tentacles that scatter. If the posts find out what happens, the beacon will be ignited as soon as possible. Then these front-line barracks will go to check, support, or delay, and report to the West Sea according to the situation. The advantage of this arrangement is that Lu Bu can control a large area without having to arrange too many troops, but the disadvantage is that the number of general soldiers in this area is actually not large.

In addition to Han cavalry, Lu Bu also has a certain number of Hu cavalry vassals. However, because these Hu cavalry are not easy to manage, they are generally stationed near the West Sea and are under the jurisdiction of Han officers as the guarantee and support of these outer small barracks. If these outer small barracks cannot solve the problem, these Hu cavalry vassals will be dispatched.

Then at the core of the West Sea, there is the cavalry unit directly under Lu Bu. It has the best equipment and the most powerful combat power. Of course, there is also Lu Bu who is not sure if he is planning to put down his knife.

Normally, there is no problem with such a layout.

There can't be Hu people on the outside, but it cannot be said that they are all Han people who are governing, so unified management of Hu people's cavalry, and then using Han people as the veins to spread and control the huge Western Regions has become a good means. Then Hu people gathered together, and the Han people are governed by the Han people and the Hu people, which restricts each other. At the same time, Hu people also restrict each other within each other, which reduces the conflicts and contradictions that are prone to arise when Hu people and Han troops are mixed together.

As long as these Hu people paid enough military wages and had no shortage of wine and meat, these Hu people would be very satisfied. Anyway, fighting and fighting were also a problem between the Hu people and the Hu people. At that time, Han people would come to serve as referees. Therefore, among these vassal cavalry regiments dominated by Hu people, the Han people's status is more like a military supervisor, with a small number and a high status.

In fact, there is no big problem with strategic deployment.

Before things happen, everyone thinks it's okay.

What can this happen?

Isn’t it just stealing and selling some war horses?

War horses are also livestock. The older ones will give birth to the younger ones, and the younger ones will grow up, and the older ones will grow older. Sell them while they are not completely old, otherwise it would be a waste, right?

Moreover, there are many cattle, sheep and horses in the Western Regions. If it really doesn’t work, just catch some horses for training. It will be enough in one or half a year. Just like the Zhuanghe in the ground, it’s not harvested once a year?

I didn’t see what Zhuang He would call? What could be done?

So Wei Xu made a happy decision.

Ergouzi also came happily.

As a result, after arriving at this barracks, Ergouzi became a little unhappy.

Ergouzi has a big name, and his big name is Cheng, loyal sincerity, honest sincerity. When he can name himself, he decided to use this word.

He must be loyal, loyal to Wei Xu, loyal to Lu Bu, and loyal to both the cavalry and the Han Dynasty.

Loyalty from beginning to end is just like he has been through so many years. No matter how many ups and downs he has experienced or how many life experiences he has, he likes young beauties from beginning to end, and likes the loyalty of silver and gold.

He is very loyal, so Ergouzi looks down on those who are not loyal.

For example, people who dare not do things "loyalty".

"You don't dare?" Ergouzi said with a glaring eyes, "You tell me you, no, dare?"

Ergouzi was very angry because he felt that Chen Ada was not loyal. Ergouzi finally broke through the siege back then... Well, although it was a bit inaccurate to say this, at least the word "siege" was true, so how could Chen Ada come to the moment and think about getting rid of the relationship and escaping in the face of the battle?

"Supervisor, this matter is...it's going to lose your head..." Chen Ada lowered his voice and said.

Ergouzi doesn't like to listen to Chen Ada's words like this, which is too inconsistent with his wishes.

What head?

Only those who do not follow Wei Xu's orders should be careful!

"Come!" Ergouzi's face sank, his hand waved, "Take this unfaithful and unrighteous person down!"

Ergouzi is also the governor of Wei Xu, who is equivalent to the leader of a military police officer, and some of his subordinates are also in charge. These men may not have much ability in fighting foreign wars, but if they have to take a few of their own people, there is no problem.

Of course, it was just a temporary detention. What to do may not be able to do. After all, Ergouzi just robbed Wei Xu's tiger skin and had no real authority. But when he was about to be taken down, Chen Ada suddenly became a little anxious, "Slowly, let's wait! This matter can be discussed..."

"discuss?"

"discuss."

Ergouzi smacked his lips, then nodded, waved his hand, "You go out first... Don't say that I don't miss the old love, what I hate the most is the unfaithful and unrighteous people..."

『…』 Chen Ada was silent.

"After saying that, how should we discuss?" Ergouzi was very busy.

Chen Ada's face changed and his heart was pounding. He didn't expect to make it so big all of a sudden!

No matter what era it is, a good mount is so expensive!

"Supervisor...Is this really necessary?" Chen Ada cried with a sad face, "This is not one or two...

"Nonsense, I'll ask you for one or two balls?" Ergouzi said naturally, "I'll ask you if you want to serve the general, be loyal to the great guardian, be loyal to the cavalry, be the great man? Yes, that's right, then I'll ask you, how can you do your best if you don't have money? They're like you, if you can't eat well or wear well, how can you do your best if you want your best if you want your best if you don't have money, how can you do your best if you want your best if you don't have money? Well? Only when you have money can we eat well, drink well, and let your brothers eat well, and only if more people are willing to work with us to do their best if you want to do your best if you want. What's wrong with this?!"

『This...but, this...the number is too large...』 Chen Ada shivered a little, 『It's really too big...』

Ergouzi lost his patience a little, "It seems that you still don't want to be loyal anymore... Then, you go and tell the general yourself..."

Ergouzi was about to report to Wei Xu, and replaced Chen Ada, who was not brave enough, and replaced him with a more loyal person.

Anyway, there is never a worry about no one doing a profitable business.

『Wait, wait...』 Chen Ada grabbed Ergouzi, 『I was wrong, wrong... Or, the battle was damaged by two hundred?two fifty?"

"What two hundred and five?" Ergouzi shook Chen Ada's hand and said angrily, "Do you think this supervisor is a businessman? You are still bargaining with you here? You are going to find the next two hundred and five?"

Chen Ada is too eye-catching, so he is so tedious that he doesn't look like a cheerful person.

Chen Ada stared at Ergouzi with a sad face, "Supervisor, five hundred horses... I'll be gone, all are gone..."

"Yes, you were ambushed by the horse thief and were wiped out." Ergouzi said, "I said it just now, why don't you understand?"

Although Ergouzi may not know the fire dragon burning warehouses, Yin soldiers borrowing grain, old cows crying in the fields, but he still knows that those who are brave enough to produce, so he is very disdainful of the timid Chen Ada, "You just take people out for a few days, and then recruit you back. The official position is still the same, everything is still there, and there are benefits... What else do I have to say more?"

Resurrection from the dead is wrong, reincarnation, isn’t that what those monks say?

And he can also reincarnate with money and wealth. This is what many people dream of?

"I asked one last time, would you do it?" Ergouzi stood up and asked in a deep voice.

『Do...Fuck...I'll do it..." Chen Ada lowered his head.

Ergouzi laughed, "Is that right? Everyone is a family and brothers. How can you suffer a loss? Don't worry, as long as you are loyal to the general and sincere to the man, you must be that... Well, yes, you have blessings, blessings!"

Ergouzi smiled and said, "By the way, there are armor and weapons, this is also money. Anyway, it's all a transaction. What kind of transaction is not a business? Some people are willing to pay a high price..."

'What? This armor...' Chen Ada said, 'But without armor, wouldn't we be almost the same as ordinary people? What if something happens to us...'

'What can I do?' Ergouzi said carelessly, 'What can I do more important than making money? Don't worry, this is the Western Regions, this is the territory of the Protector and the General, and it is our territory. Who dares to do anything? Besides, you are wiped out! If you are dead, how can you have any armor? Right? The general wants war horses. What we do, we have some armor. Everyone has benefits and money to make money. Isn't that great?"

Ergouzi patted Chen Ada on the shoulder, "That's it! Work hard and have a bright future!"

…(o′ω`o)?…

The Western Regions in the late night.

cold.

Ruthless.

What Wei Xu and others did is actually not a secret.

At least for Wei Xu and others, they did not feel that they were "rebellious".

Because the "big man" has long disappeared.

In other words, in the hearts of Wei Xu and others, the existence of the previous dignified "big man" is no longer there.

After Dong Zhuo slapped Liu Bin down, Wei Xu and others had lost their awe of the great man. Then they found that not only the emperor, but also the three dukes and nine ministers who were originally wearing personal appearances, their butt curtains were also dirty and their chrysanthemums were also black...

In the hearts of Wei Xu and others, the originally tall and sacred man collapsed.

But in life, you must always find some meaning of life for yourself.

Or, the reason to survive.

If there is no such reason, many people will choose to die.

Some people will devote their lives to a certain belief, and of course some people will feel bored and lie down.

As a subordinate of Lu Bu, Wei Xu had lost the enthusiasm of a young man and had only left to lie down. Doing things for one day is to get a reward for one day. If you do one more, you will have to have one more money, otherwise you will not be able to negotiate.

In Wei Xu's heart, the current emperor is just a little baby that Dong Zhuo helped up back then. The current cavalry is just an ambitious person to seize the world, which is different from the previous great man.

So as long as the state officials set fire, the people are not allowed to light the lamp? A group of big bosses are crazily digging the corners of the big man. How big can it be for the young generals of the border army to steal some military capital?

Now Wei Xu is doing things for himself.

Then what else is there to say?

money.

Just have money, money is really a good thing...

Wei Xu narrowed his eyes and looked at the golden coins in front of him.

There are a lot of gold in the Western Regions, and then there are gold coins from various countries. Of course, the most are still two types, Kushan gold coins and Husse Gold Coins. Kushan gold coins are relatively rough, while Husse Gold Coins are relatively delicate, but whether they are rough or exquisite, they exude covetous brilliance.
