Western Liaoning, Zhenbeiyi.

Huo Chang He Wei looked at the visitor in front of him with some embarrassment. This was the first time he had received news from his hometown, and he couldn't help but feel at a loss.

He was a Huaidong sergeant from Anton and came from a typical northern family of vassals.

According to traditional sayings, the Gancheng of the vassal state is called the ministers of the world, the second is the family generals, and the third is the national people and the people. He happened to be in the last sequence. As for the Tu tribe, naturalized people and slaves, can that be considered in the sequence of normal people?

Compared with the most prosperous and civilized areas occupied by the Luo family and Xue family in the southern part of Andong Road, the history of most princes in the northeastern corner of the development and establishment of families is only two or three hundred years at the shortest.

These places are erratic and unbearable, and the output and harvest types of land are quite limited. Therefore, the vassal families managed in these local lineages are known for their poverty and toughness from top to bottom.

In most cases, we can only rely on fur, medicinal materials and other specialties in the mountain, as well as some rare mineral deposits such as jade, gems, and sand gold, as important daily inputs.

Therefore, these northern princes were subjected to the rich and warm areas of the south, led by Luo and Xue, for a long time.

Because caravans that are capable of large-scale exchanges and corresponding bargaining power are always in their hands. The iron and salt required in the vassal also require transfer and import of daily negotiable materials from the southern sea route.

Although the princes in the northern region had coastal areas, they did not have the ability to build ships and sail accordingly except for the need for offshore fishing. Therefore, they were used to this kind of vassal roles in exchange for the specialty tribute and human service in the vassal state for the input of corresponding resources.

The Yushan vassal state where his hometown is located is slightly better in the small and medium-sized princes in the north. Because the main residential cities and population areas in the vassal states are located near the sea estuary where several large rivers converge.

Therefore, as the name suggests, the most common local specialty is fish, which is the instinct of moving outside the eyes every year. The large fish delivered to the door can be described as a mountain of accumulation.

Therefore, this vassal area only relies on selling dried fish and other products to develop the pattern of five cities and twelve towns in the eyes of others. In the season of fish flood, the vassal people did not lack a large amount of fresh fish.

However, in the same vassal families, there are many children, and the proportion of vassals is also high, and labor is frequent. Therefore, although there are several months of eating meat in the year, they still live a tight life at other times.

Even hunting is needed as a supplement. After all, the particularly long winter in the north cannot be overwhelmed by dried fish. Moreover, the large amount of salt needed to make dried fish also needs to be exchanged from the feudal area at a large price.

Therefore, the impression of being half hungry has been intermittently shrouded in his growing memory, so after a little adulthood, he couldn't wait to send him out to serve as a servant on the vassal to avoid punishment and collecting.

Then, with the other people in this vassal, they responded to the call of the Daluo family and became one of the various vassal armies representing Andongdao and crossing the sea to support the Northern Expedition of Daliang.

Of course, due to the success of the Northern Expedition, most of these foreign soldiers who helped fight and assisted the army were in a worrying situation and were defeated one after another. Only he and his third battalion Andong soldiers were assigned to the left wing of the new army early, and escaped the disaster of destruction.

Then he began his career in the Huaidong Army. His fellow villagers from Yushanfan found him, brought information about his hometown, and secretly asked him whether he needed a follower and entourage. At least a dozen hardworking and willing children from fellow villagers were willing to fight for this opportunity.

In fact, it was not only him who was troubled, but also many other soldiers from Andongdao, who were found with various reasons and documents, and asked indirectly whether they could find a way out for joining the army to eat food in Huai Town.

Moreover, even the upper class of Huai Town cannot be left out of the matter.

After a few days, a steady stream of visitors suddenly appeared, almost turning the camp where the Huaidong Army stationed into a noise like a downtown city.

Therefore, I also stood on the watchtower and looked helplessly at those horse riding or infantry battles that were as powerful as horses and beasts, and caught the figures fighting together in a few temporary drawings.

At least in Roche, he showed a happy attitude towards the situation and situation that happened here.

In the words of rushing back from the south from the south, Luo Sijin and having a heart-to-heart talk in private, the Liaohe River Basin after the war required time to recuperate, which could reduce some similar unstable factors, which was also beneficial.

After all, these children of the vassal family have been playing guns and sticks since childhood, just to fight.

Under the background of the long-term confrontation between the Xue and Luo families in previous dynasties, they needed to fight with the foreign troops on the grassland outside the mountain, fight with the hostile Northern Dynasties' border troops, and prevent the savages in the white mountains and black waters and the unruly people in the forest, and even the princes who are next door to compete with water sources, fields and hillsides.

But the situation is a little different now. Those who have a little knowledge seem to foresee that the princes in central and southern Anton will enter a long period of rest and rest for a long time.

Not only did the vassal soldiers and husbands recruited from all over the country need to be sent to the place to serve as production activities. In fact, some remote vassal families have begun to pack up and prepare to return it.

Even the children of these vassal families who serve as backbone in the army will have no place to use their skills for a long time. Although there are many vacant places to accommodate them in the newly occupied eight prefectures in western Liaoning. However, not everyone is willing to settle for the status quo and ordinary daily life.

In addition, at this time, through communication with Andong soldiers in the Huaidong Army, the treatment and supply standards of the Huaidong Army were spread, and this unexpected result was also produced.

But for me, the so-called martial arts they practiced since childhood are actually not very useful, because the Huaidong Army has its own set of tactics and training processes. It relies on the power of collective cooperation and training, rather than personal martial arts.

In this case, a soldier who grew up in the Huaidong system and provided batch assembly line through collective farms and large workshops can be more reliable and used more frequently than the children of the vassal families with complex origins.

After all, I only need an army that can be enforced and formed an array to line up and shoot. However, as the saying goes, "It's a blessing to lose your horse and have been entrusted with many requests." I originally planned to collect some people symbolically and serve as a scene to deal with it.

But at this time, a suggestion from Du Shiyi from the military team reminded me unintentionally.

At least there is no shortage of excellent horses in Anton, and naturally there is no shortage of athletes who are good at taming and riding horses. Therefore, the innate shortcomings of Huaidong Town in terms of cavalry sources seem to have some opportunity to make up for it.

Therefore, the standards for acceptance and selection were temporarily changed to the most basic threshold for whether to ride a horse. At least the standards for bunker cavalry were placed in Huaidong, a melting pot with initial results. If I don’t believe it, I can’t transform and temper a qualified cavalry for me.

However, I found myself misjudging the situation again. For most families of the vassal family, the threshold for riding horses obviously cannot stump them. It is said that many people have sat on the saddle of their father and brother since childhood, and collected taxes and service as their elders patrol the territory together.

As a result, so many people led the Malay to apply for the conquest, my camp gate was blocked. If we only look at the head, it would be no problem to temporarily reorganize a battalion.

I turned around and thought about it with Luo's side, and simply took out some of the wealth and precious spoils to hold a competitive military competition on the spot.

This can eliminate some inappropriate objects and sources through some behind-the-scenes observations and on-site operations.

Then, I misjudged their determination and actions again. The hundreds of people who were initially selected were finally selected, and there were actually hundreds of people present. These guys came with all kinds of followers and entourages.

So, I had to make a temporary decision to form a riding assist camp. At least these followers gathered together, and after a little training and discipline, I still had a good set of experience and means in the chores of joining the army, raising and caring for horses.
