Chapter 649 The problem of lack of horses in the army

"Also I want to ask, your daughter seems to be still in Xia Pi, it doesn't matter, she?" Cao Cao looked at Chen Gui, and Chen Gui surrendered with Pengcheng Kingdom, and told Chen Gong that Chen Deng was afraid that there would be trouble.

"Just relying on the power of my Chen family in Xia Pi, Chen Gong dared not hurt my daughter! Besides, I wrote to her five days ago, and now I should have escaped. At most two days, I will be here." Chen Gui replied calmly.

The old fox... Wang Yong just silently complained in his heart that the Chen family in Xia Pi is the leader, and is better than the two brothers Chen Yu and Chen Cong... I don't know if those two exist...

"That's good. I'll leave it to you first, and when the conquest of Lu Bu is over... I hope you will go back to the court with me. According to your contribution, you should become an official." Cao Cao nodded and looked at Chen Gui.

"This is the honor of the lower-ranking officials." Chen Gui was very happy. No one didn't want to join the central government as an official. Just say that Zhu Jun, the governor of Jiaozhou who gave up his real power, returned to the court to serve as a counselor.

"As for Ling Ai..." Cao Cao thought for a while, "If we meet, why don't you ask me if she plans to follow the civil or the military. If we follow the civil, I can give her the position of Guangling Prefect, and may not even be the governor of Xuzhou in the future. By the way, the court is also discussing that the governor system will be reformed in the future, the governor system will be abolished, and the governor system will be changed, and the governor system will be changed to the governor, and the highest commander of a state."

The governor of the Han Dynasty was even under the county magistrate. It was not until the end of the Han Dynasty that his full strength began to soar, and he became the highest commander of a state. If he was promoted to the prefecture, he would be in charge of the military and political power of a state and had the power to recruit soldiers independently.

So that's it. It seems that Super is indeed thinking about the issue of excessive power of the governor... Chen Gui immediately started to mutter in his mind. If you want to limit yourself, you might as well just restructure and promote the governor to the governor. Anyway, the military and political separation... This is a good idea.

"If you follow the martial arts, Xuzhou will establish the Xuzhou Legion at that time. With Ling Ai's resume, it is also OK to be the deputy commander of the legion. Accumulate a period of resumes, and it may be good to be promoted to the commander of the legion at that time." Cao Cao gave Chen Gui some time to think about it before continuing.

"Where is, my daughter, although she knows the military, is not that good at it. She can be just an ordinary general. If she is just the deputy commander of the army, she probably cannot be competent." Chen Gui knew that this was Cao Cao deliberately polite Chen Deng, but if he was humble, he still had to say it. Chen Deng is only thirty years old this year. It is a bit difficult for a young woman who is thirty years old to serve as the deputy commander of the army.

"Under the current situation of the Han Dynasty, we should use talents in a nonsense. As long as we have talents, our resume can be slightly ignored." Cao Cao smiled. With Chen Gui's words, there is still room for operation. Although she doesn't think that Chen Deng will be transferred to a military position.

"If the little girl comes over, I will tell him what she chooses." Chen Gui couldn't make the decision directly for Chen Deng. When his daughter grew up, it was not her turn to take care of her.

Cao Cao didn't say much, stayed in Pengcheng for one night, and continued to set off the next day, heading eastward.

"Lord, it's very strange!" Seeing that he was about to enter Xia Pi, Guo Jia stepped forward, "It's fine with Wei Xu and Song Xian, but we hardly saw the army on Pengcheng..."

"Lu Bu shrank his army and probably gave up Pengcheng County and Guangling County to mainly defend Donghai County and Xiapi County." Cao Cao also realized this problem and then expressed his guess.

"At least 30,000 combat soldiers, after deducting 10,000 from Donghai County, 20,000 combat soldiers are active in this area in Xiapi County." Xu Shu added, "Xiapi has almost no steep terrain, and cavalry combat is very favorable, so we have to guard against it."

"There will be a test in the short term... This is also the reason why I transferred Cao Chun here." Cao Cao was not surprised. In order to deal with the cavalry under Lu Bu, she had already transferred Cao Chun and her tiger and leopard cavalry under her.

"We still lack a light cavalry, who is good at raiding for long distances." Guo Jia shook his head. The tiger and leopard cavalry is suitable for rushing forward, but it is definitely not suitable to fight against the rangers under Lu Bu. Those guys were like wolves, wandering around, then finding the weakness of their prey, and then rushing forward. The key is that there is a powerful wolf among the group of wolves!

The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is very strong because it is a heavy cavalry and is suitable for rushing to disperse the enemy's infantry lineup, but it does not have strong durability and ability to rush and pursue.

"The Central Plains lack horses..." Cao Cao shook his head. There were not many horses left after he had finally obtained when he was distributed. Although the horse farm was planned to be built, there were a lack of stallions.

Even if they were their own people, they would not sell mares, and at most they would not sell those castrated stallions. In fact, even so, many forces had to fight for a long time due to limited funding and had to be castrated after buying them.

"If there is a horse with good endurance..." Wang Yong suddenly mentioned, "There are horses in Dianchi Lake area, and the trade routes in Bashu rely heavily on Dianchi Horse to transport goods. Not only are they endurance, they are also good at walking in the mountains, going up and down the mountains and forests... The shortcomings are also obvious. Due to the terrain, the steps are not very large, the flat ground is not fast, and the body is shorter..."

"…………This horse is useless!" Cao Chun came out to object directly.

"You can't say that!" Wang Yong replied, "If you can be tamed, the second generation may be able to take steps and run faster without the advantage of mountain warfare. No matter how slow it is, it is at least faster than infantry. It is rare that it has amazing endurance. As a ranger, the scout is actually very good. If you can train to become a archer..."

"So that's the case. If this is the case, you can also consider it..." Cao Cao nodded and began to examine the Dian Malay.

"In addition, we may go south to the south of the Yangtze River, with many mountains and forests and few flat places. This means that ordinary horses are difficult to walk, especially the heavily armored tiger and leopard cavalry. I guess there has not been a rushing place, and I have fainted from the heat." Wang Yong looked at Cao Chun, who snorted and turned his head aside.

"Preparing for the attack in Jiangnan..." Cao Cao frowned again. She had never considered this situation.

"At the same time, it can also ensure transportation by land!" Sima Yi learned from it. "Although the Jiangnan water network is densely populated, there are many inland cities. Due to the terrain, it is estimated that ordinary carts will be difficult to transport. At this time, Dianma can solve this problem."

"I will consider this issue, but even if we want to buy it, we still need Liu Zhang to cooperate." Cao Cao sighed. Even if we have money, we can't buy it. This is the problem.

"It really doesn't work. How about sending Cai Yan to the Southern Xiongnu marriage?" Wang Yong suggested.

"She is still useful now. I need to understand the situation on Yuan Shao through her... I will reward her in accordance with her merits and will not be able to send her to marry her." Cao Cao shook his head, and I have to say that she was indeed moved just now.

"!!!!" Yuan Shu, who was inside the Fire Head Army, suddenly shivered, and always felt that someone was plotting against him behind his back.

"General, I found a Ranger unit ahead, and the person in charge was riding a red horse!" Within an hour, a scout came hurriedly, and he didn't dare to see it too clearly. After all, maybe after seeing it clearly, he wouldn't be able to escape.
