I have been a county magistrate for ten years. My subordinates insist on giving me a yellow robe.

"Second brother!"

Hatu's miserable cry echoed in the lobby of the county government office. Jiang Yuan sighed and walked back to his chair and sat down.

Based on the little information left by Gary, we can infer a lot of things.

As a nomadic people, now that winter is here, they will definitely kill whoever they see. The big fish will eat the small fish, and the small fish will eat the shrimps, leaving the shrimps with nothing to eat.

There is a high probability that Aoki's tribe was wiped out by that Maki tribe.

Gary escaped death again and ran to Taiping County for help.

"Sir!" Hatu looked at Jiang Yuan with red eyes and roared.

"Please allow me to lead five hundred soldiers to rescue my elder brother. From now on, I will serve you at your service, even through fire and water!"

Faced with such a situation, Jiang Yuan felt a little conflicted.

It is a tribe after all. When Qingmu first came, there were about five or six hundred people, all of whom were young and strong.

There must be a lot of combat power in the tribe to guard against sneak attacks from other tribes. This means there are at least a thousand horse thieves.

The Zhenmu tribe mentioned by Gerry was able to wipe out the Qingmu tribe, and Gerry himself would be killed. At least there were two thousand people who could mount horses and fight against the enemy.

You, Hatu, are awesome, but taking 500 people there is no different from delivering food.

"Hatu, I understand how you feel, but these five hundred people aren't enough. Analyze this rationally. With only these five hundred people, we might never come back."

"We don't have many cavalry in Taiping County. This is simply like hitting a rock with an egg. We have no chance of winning." Jiang Yuan shook his head and sighed.

Hatu's expression quickly darkened. Jiang Yuan could think of this, and as he was familiar with the grassland, he would only think of more.

But what else can be done?

Taiping County had a total of 3,000 soldiers and horses, of which only 600 were cavalrymen suitable for grassland warfare. If the infantry and archers failed to break through the defense line, they would be at the mercy of others.

Besides, the mobility of the infantry is really poor, and it will take a long time for them to reach the grassland.

Suddenly, Hatu suddenly said: "My lord, I have a plan. I know there are many small tribes with only a few hundred people. As long as we can fight all the way, by the time we reach our tribe, the number of people will definitely not be less than 10,000!"

"Although the tribe may not have many people, they have at least thousands of cattle and sheep. Even if we lose some men and horses, these spoils will be enough to make up for it, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yuan stood up suddenly. It works!

This method is really feasible, and there are examples of this in Chinese history.

As for the current situation, Hatu is familiar with the grassland and must be able to identify the direction.

In addition, Taiping County now has an advantage in equipment, so we can really fight!

Chen Qing, who was standing by, suddenly felt his face fall. He was screwed.

According to Jiang Yuan's character, when the profit reaches 20%, Jiang Yuan will be eager to take action.

When the profit is 50%, Jiang Yuan will do anything even if it means taking risks. If the profit is 100%, Jiang Yuan will dare to trample on all the laws in the world.

What is before us now is to take advantage of the civil unrest in the grassland to plunder the benefits. If we put aside the matter of rescuing Aoki, it is definitely a no-profit deal.

Not to mention Jiang Yuan, even Chen Qing thought it was feasible.

"Okay! Hatu! Go back and prepare, select 600 soldiers, and gather at the city gate tomorrow to set off!" Jiang Yuan said loudly.

Despite being extremely anxious, Hatu still nodded.

There are six hundred people after all, and we have to bring food and drinks. One day is already very tight.

Before leaving, Hatu took away Gerry's body. Jiang Yuan waved his hand to let the two doctors leave, then looked at Wang Gang.

"Go inform Zhao Kai, Kong Xuan, Wang Jue, Li Hu and the others to follow me into the grasslands tomorrow morning!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yuan ran out of the county government office in a hurry.

It is unrealistic to want to roam the grassland with only 600 cavalrymen. The truth grenade has now begun secret mass production, and this is what Jiang Yuan really relies on.

When Jiang Yuan passed through an ordinary little room and came to the tunnel, his view suddenly became clear. A dozen people were making truth bombs in an orderly manner.

Jiang Yuan nodded, signaling them not to pay attention to him, and slowly picked up a truth bomb.

The improved truth bomb is obviously much more refined. First of all, according to Jiang Yuan's design, it is no longer an iron sleeve, but a real iron sleeve connected by a wooden handle.

This change can at least extend the range by dozens of meters.

However, Jiang Yuan still hasn't figured out a good way to ignite the fire by pulling a wire, and still needs to use a fire starter to ignite the fire.

But this is not important, it is enough in this era.

“How much reserves do we have currently?”

"Sir, there are more than 3,000 bombs in total, and the main reason is that we have too few people." Wang Yuan, who was in charge of the production of truth bombs, spoke immediately.

Jiang Yuan didn't say anything, just nodded. More than three thousand pieces, that's already pretty good.

The production of the truth bomb has not been announced yet, and it can only be made secretly by these dozen trusted guys. Having this many is enough.

"Okay, tomorrow morning, bring two thousand to the city gate."

After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he hurried away again.

There is no need to worry about the truth bomb, but he still has a spear!

You must bring this thing with you, and all kinds of preparations are necessary.

In addition, we have to consider the food and drink for 600 people. For now, this problem is not a big problem.

Thanks to the previous transaction with Aoki, Taiping County now has no shortage of dried meat. In addition, it is snowing now, so the water problem has been solved.

By the time Jiang Yuan had solved all the problems he could think of, it was already dark.

The next morning, Jiang Yuan, who had rested enough, got out of bed and went to the city gate. Hatu was already waiting there with his men.

Zhao Kai, Wang Jue and others were all ready to go. Since this time they were going to raid the grassland, these three veteran ruffians were particularly serious. Not only did they wear armor, but they also brought various weapons.

Spears, long swords, crossbows, sleeve arrows, and a bow and arrow on the back.

Even Wang Gang wore light armor for the first time and held a saber in his hand.

But it's true, with the tall and strong Wang Gang equipped with such a saber, Jiang Yuan could fully imagine the scene of both the man and the horse being cut into pieces with one blow.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but envy Ning Chuan.

The entire Da Duan army was mobilized to create three thousand dragon guards, each of whom is a master of the third realm and is proficient in various weapons.

To put it bluntly, the combat effectiveness of 3,000 Dragon Guards is definitely not inferior to that of 30,000 soldiers.

"Sir, everything is ready!" Hatu dismounted and reported.

Jiang Yuan nodded, grabbed his spear, and mounted his horse, pointing at the truth bombs Wang Yuan had sent him: "Six hundred people, each of you take three."

"Sergeant, take four. Wang Gang, Zhao Kai, and the rest of you, take as many as you can."

After saying that, Jiang Yuan took the lead in putting a dozen into his bag and hung it next to the saddle.

After a while, when everyone is ready, check again to make sure nothing is missed.

Jiang Yuan immediately raised the spear in his hand.

"set off!"
