After instructing Lu Xing, Yun Zheng asked Lu Xing to bring the Eighteen Ghost Riders over.
Looking at Lu Xing's back, Yun Zheng couldn't help but think secretly.
Now that this matter is over, it’s time to hand Lu Xing over to Qin Qihu.
However, it would take some time to make the armor for the Blood Clothes Army's horses.
Armor is not easy to make, and there are too few craftsmen who can make armor.
Although manpower was urgently transferred, the difference between experienced and novices is still quite large.
Fortunately, there is an iron mine in Moyang. As long as the iron smelting workshop there is expanded, it can provide more pig iron.
However, the distance between the coal mine and the iron mine is too far!
There is no bridge over there.
The transportation distance and cost are not easy to solve for the time being!
...
...
He doesn't have the energy or manpower to carry out large-scale construction now, so he can only make do with it for now.
While Yun Zheng was daydreaming, all the Eighteen Ghost Riders were brought in.
Yes, eighteen people, not one less.
However, the green cloaks on them were tattered and looked a little disheveled.
Several others were injured at first sight.
“Follow me!”
Yun Zheng glanced at everyone and took them and Shen Luoyan into another room.
"Take everything off your face!"
As soon as he entered the room, Yun Zheng gave the order.
Everyone followed the order and took off their masks.
It was not until this moment that Shen Luoyan was able to see the true appearance of Yun Zheng's most mysterious troops.
Most of the early members of the Ghost Eighteen Riders were selected by her on behalf of Yun Zheng.
But she only now realized that there were only three people left of the ones she had chosen at the beginning.
There was another person who left a particularly deep impression on her.
Hu Xiong!
This person was clearly one of Yun Zheng’s earliest batch of palace soldiers.
Yun Zheng and Ye Zi both have the rosters of those palace soldiers!
She seemed to have seen Hu Xiong's name on the casualty list of the government soldiers before!
Yun Zheng actually got him into the Ghost Eighteen Riders?
Looking at Shen Luoyan's surprised look, Yun Zheng couldn't help but smile, "Don't be surprised, all of them have been on the casualty list, in the Northern Army, they don't exist!"
None of it exists?
A real ghost?
Shen Luoyan was puzzled. Why did Yun Zheng suddenly let her see the true faces of these people?
Could it be that he let me see it because he and I were actually married?
"Just watch from the side first and remember their appearance."
Yun Zheng winked at Shen Luoyan, and asked Hu Xiong to tell him about their battle situation in recent days and also talk about the situation in Beihuan.
In fact, the real commander of the Eighteen Ghost Riders is not You Yi, but Hu Xiong, codenamed You Jiu.
You Yi is the deputy.
Hu Xiong took the order and began to report.
In fact, they had abandoned their war horses since they entered the rear of Beihuan.
From then on, they all killed and snatched war horses to hurry on their way.
Before a raid, they would kill their horses, hide in their attire, and quietly approach their target.
According to Yun Zheng's request, they tried to be as silent as possible when killing people.
The warhorse would only give them away.
During this period, they launched several raids on tribes west of the Beihuan territory.
Now, they have succeeded in creating panic among those tribes.
They originally planned to do a few more jobs and then come back.
However, they accidentally captured the Beimoduo people who went to Beihuan for help, and learned their purpose through interrogation. They then urgently raided a tribe, seized the war horses and took the leader back.
Yun Zheng listened and nodded secretly.
Well, not bad!
This is exactly the effect we want.
"How is Beihuan doing now?"
Yun Zheng asked again.
“They’re living pretty well.”
You Jiu smirked: "Many tribes have meat to eat almost every day."
ah?
Shen Luoyan widened her eyes, almost thinking that she had heard it wrong.
Can many tribes in Beihuan still have meat to eat every day?
Soon, Shen Luoyan reacted.
Eating meat every day may not necessarily be a good life.
Those livestock were equivalent to the food reserves of the various tribes in Beihuan.
The last of the stored food has been eaten up. When the long cold winter comes, people in Beihuan will begin to starve to death on a large scale!
The tribe that has meat to eat every day now will be the one that suffers the most when the cold winter comes.
"By the way, Your Highness, when we came back, we saw that the tribes in the west seemed to have started to migrate again, and they seemed to be retreating behind Wulian Mountain."
At this time, You Jiu mentioned another important situation.
"Migrate and retreat?"
Yun Zheng was slightly surprised, "They are going to shrink their defense!"
Obviously, Beihuan was unable to maintain its large army.
Only by shrinking the defense can we ensure that we are not attacked as much as possible.
Once Beihuan retreated too far back, they would want to launch a surprise attack lightly. It would be easy for them to get people, but the horses would not be able to get fodder from Beihuan quickly.
If you were to raid and herd horses at the same time, the raid would be too slow.
"Okay, let's all go down and rest!"
Yun Zheng thought for a while and asked them to leave.
Everyone obeyed the order, put on their masks again, and quickly left the room.
"Do you know why I want you to see their true appearance?"
Yun Zheng looked at Chen Luoyan with a smile.
Chen Luoyan tilted his head and thought for a while, then replied: "I started to think that you didn't trust me before, and you trusted me because we were husband and wife, but then I thought about it, it didn't seem to be the case..."
Listening to Chen Luoyan's words, Yun Zheng couldn't help but frown.
The next moment, Yun Zheng pulled Shen Luoyan over and slapped her on the buttocks.
"I already said no."
Shen Luoyan pouted and looked at Yun Zheng with dissatisfaction.
"I just want to get familiar with the feel of it."
Yun Zheng laughed and pulled Shen Luoyan into his arms, "You have to gradually take over some of the things I'm doing. You don't even know who these people are, how can you take over?"
"You want me to take over the Eighteen Ghost Riders?" Shen Luoyan was surprised.
"What else?"
Yun Zheng patted Shen Luoyan's butt again, "Once you get pregnant one day, you can't go to the battlefield at any time! You have to start taking over some things..."
Otherwise, if he, the prince, is not around, and the Eighteen Ghost Riders come to her, the princess, to report something, she won't even be able to tell whether they are the Eighteen Ghost Riders or not. That would be hilarious.
Speaking of pregnancy, Shen Luoyan's pretty face suddenly blushed.
However, this is indeed an unavoidable problem.
While blushing, Shen Luoyan teased again: "If you want to get pregnant, it will be your sister-in-law... Sister Zi'er got pregnant first, you must have been tossing her around these days!"
"Then should I bother you more?" Yun Zheng grinned.
"Pooh!"
Shen Luoyan spat lightly, but then stretched out her arms to hug Yun Zheng's neck, blushing and saying: "Let's not make any more trouble. I don't want to get pregnant so early. When the war starts, you always like to charge into battle with the army. I'm always worried if I'm not with you..."
"Who can say for sure?"
Yun Zheng put his hand on Shen Luoyan's belly and said with a wicked smile: "Maybe you are pregnant now?"
Shen Luoyan was speechless.
You know what, this is really possible!
I'll have to ask Miaoyin to help me take a look later.
Being pregnant, she couldn't go to the battlefield with Yun Zheng.
If she didn't follow Yun Zheng, she would still feel uneasy...
