Heiyundu is different from the Yulin Army, which has been responsible for guarding the palace for a long time. Heiyundu is always a vanguard in war. Therefore, although Heiyundu is known as the personal army of the king and has a government office in the city, in order to make the soldiers accustomed to field battles, he still occupied a large area of ​​camp at the foot of Jilong Mountain in the north of the city, and stationed most of the soldiers here. Since the leadership of Heiyun, he has been stationed in the military camp for many years, leaving the government office in the city almost vacant. This time, Chen De was invited to go there.

When he arrived at the camp, he saw a lively preparation scene. The cavalry team ran back and forth to practice riding and shooting and assault, and the momentum was terrifying. The soldiers who did not ride horses were also riding on wooden horses and practicing large guns under the leadership of the officers. The only infantrymen were carrying supplies for the cavalry, and they seemed particularly weak in the sand and dust that covered the sky.

Heiyundu commander Ji Yan led several lieutenants to wait in the tent. He looked at Chen De and Xin Gu who were covered in dust on the school ground and smiled: "I heard that General Chen went straight to the military camp after he came out of the palace that day. He was really diligent in the king's affairs, and thanked him hard."

Chen De's heart was shocked. He had never reported his whereabouts to anyone after receiving the order, but he was actually known by the seemingly careless Liu Yan. Relying on the Heiyundu, Ji Yan was able to compete with Huangfu Jixun, the commander of the 100,000 Shenguan Army in the Southern Tang Dynasty. It seemed that he had extraordinary skills. So he quickly smiled and gave in and said humbly: "It is an ancient saying that he will start a family regardless of the day of his order. After the king's order is given, the last general has to be ordered to take office in the evening, and there is nothing to say."

After hearing this, Wan Yan snorted softly, thinking that although Chen De heard that he had some ability, he could gain the attention and trust of the king. Being able to speak was obviously an important factor. Since he was determined that Chen De was just a new favorite, Wan Yan said proudly: "Commander Chen, the army will not go on a war. The so-called "soldiers" should not move, and the food and grass will go first. Can your troops escort food and supplies into the Shaanxi Village in Chizhou and defend it? Heiyun will then garrison. Our troops are mainly cavalry, and can be the center of Shaanxi, and intercept the enemy's baggage in four directions."

Chen De was shocked when he heard this. He wanted to use the advantages of Jiangnan Water Network to let the Jinfan Army use ships to maneuver and attack the small troops of the Song army, just like the later guerrillas behind enemy lines. If he followed Liu Yan's suggestion, the Jinfan Army would become the baggage battalion of Heiyundu. Not only would he have no chance to make meritorious contributions, but he would also easily use his strength to guard the fortress and the Southern Expedition Army of Song State. Heiyun would be able to take advantage of the situation. If the war was not good, it would be possible to abandon friendly troops and escape. Heiyun would definitely participate in the war every time and be able to preserve his strength to this day. Heiyun would definitely do a lot of things to sacrifice friendly troops at critical moments.

Although I really wanted to cooperate with Ji Yan happily, Chen De still bowed and said, "General Ji Yan, although Jinfan Army is an infantry army, there are a large number of sailors in the army. They can use the help of Jiangnan water towns to raid the Song army's baggage behind them to use their strengths. If they only take on the responsibility of transporting the baggage and guarding the Shaanxi Village, it is tantamount to giving up their strengths. Please think twice." He said this very sincerely. After saying that, he stared at Ji Yan without blinking, hoping that he could accept his opinions.

But since Ji Yan believed that Chen De was just a lucky minister, he couldn't help but turn black when he saw that he dared to refuse his arrangements, he laughed dryly: "There must be extremely strict front and back protection, and a large number of cavalry will reinforce the attacked baggage team. It is of course good for Commander Chen to be willing to harass the enemy independently, but I am afraid that once I encounter enemy cavalry, the attack will not be possible, and the loss of troops will be lost. General Chen and I will not explain it to His Majesty."

After he spoke, his tone was extremely contemptuous. Looking at Chen De, it seemed as if the Jinfan Army had been defeated under the Iron Cavalry of the Song Kingdom. Before Chen De could answer, Xin Gu, who was sitting in his head, angrily said: "What's so great about cavalry? I've probably killed more horses than you have ever ridden."

As soon as this said, the generals who were with Heiyun shouted, "Random, there is no way you can speak in front of General Ji." Ji Yan even pressed his belt and looked at Chen De and Xin Gu coldly with his eyes. Xin Gu looked at him without any concession. The atmosphere at the scene suddenly solidified.

Chen De hurriedly raised his teacup and smiled, "Prince Xin is a rough man, he is straightforward and his words are a little vulgar. He is not the only general to accompany him. I hope General Wu will have a lot of people, so don't bother with him."

Seeing that he was giving in, Wan Yan picked up the tea bowl in front of him and drank it. He no longer had any disputes with Xin Gu. He said in a deep voice: "I have heard of Commander Chen's plan to break the cavalry that day, but he was too scholarly. On the battlefield, as long as more than a hundred horses run, the momentum would cover the sky and the sun, and it was no problem to break through the formation of thousands of infantrymen."

He gave him a general in the costume of a lieutenant and said, "If the infantry does not form a formation, they can only kill him like a cut of vegetables." Ji Yanheng glanced at him, smiled and waved his hand and said, "Captain Ma, don't be rude." Although he said this, he was not too disrespectful to Chen De.

Xin Gu was still waiting to retort, Chen De quickly stopped him and bowed, "It has been used to control cavalry through steps throughout the ages. Duke Li Wei of the previous dynasty used side vans as the bones, and the Six Flower Formation as the shape, and it was not far away to cross the desert."

Wan Yan thought that he had given Chen De a good face, but he didn't expect that Chen De was still strong and looked bad. The lieutenant with a surname named Shangguan understood and said, "Duke Li Wei is the God of Military Affairs, and it is natural to use his scholastic cavalry to control the cavalry. With the ability of General Chen, he might not have such ability to control Jinfan's new army."

Chen De still answered, and Wan Yan shouted: "Chengyan, you are getting more and more unruly. Don't you apologize to General Chen and retreat!"

The Shangguan Captain stood up when he heard this, and bowed to Chen De, who were sitting up without saying a word, and then walked out of the tent carelessly.

Ji Yan smiled at Chen De and said, "This Ma Chengyan is also a straightforward person. If he hadn't seen that he had the courage to serve His Majesty, I would have beaten him out of the military camp. However, I, Heiyun, are mainly cavalrymen, and there are people who dissatisfied with General Chen's high talk on the sprint of cavalry. Is this method possible? Is there a way?"

"What's the solution?" Chen De asked in his eyes.

Ji Yan smiled: "I heard that General Chen brought fifty infantry soldiers this time. According to the proportion of one cavalry as five steps, I used my Heiyundu ten cavalry against the Jinfan Fifty-Tooth Army to see if it can control the cavalry with infantry, how about it?"

Hearing every sentence of Liu Yan was about using infantry to control cavalry, Chen De thought that Heiyun was the only elite in the Southern Tang Dynasty who was mainly cavalry. He said in front of Li Yu that he was offended by using infantry to control cavalry, but he actually wanted to challenge his Fifty-Tooth Army with ten cavalry, which was too unfair to take himself seriously, not to mention that these Teeth Army had already passed the preliminary gun formation training.

Seeing that Chen De was silent, Ji Yan said again, "If the fifty infantry of your army can block our ten cavalry, then Heiyun will be responsible for defending Shaanxi Village. You can harass the Song army as much as you are willing to. However, if these fifty infantry cannot resist the ten cavalry, Jinfan will be asked to take responsibility for transporting supplies and guarding Shaanxi Village for our Heiyun. What does General Chen mean?"

Chen De had no choice but to have some confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Ya Army, so he said in a deep voice: "Okay."

Xin Guggeng immediately continued: "I'll go and rectify the soldiers and kill him.

Ji Yan saw Xin Gu's expression eager to try, and thought, "The general is the courage of the army. If this person had killed many horses just now, it would be a problem, so he said again: "Captain Xin, the bet I made with General Chen is the soldiers against the soldiers. As the lieutenant, you are personally in the battle. If you are injured, I am afraid that you will not be able to explain to Your Majesty." He said while making up his mind. If Xin Gu insists on going into battle regardless of his dissuasion, he will order the cavalry to shoot him into a hedgehog from a distance.

Xin Gu said angrily: "His grandma, there are still some officials on the battlefield, but they are still small." As soon as he spoke rudely, he immediately attracted the scolding of the generals of Heiyundu. Several people rushed up to surround him, rolled up their sleeves to beat him up. Xin Gu shouted louder, pressed his waist knife, and glared at the fiercely surrounded by Heiyundu. He was tall and long and fierce. In addition, after all, this was a friendly army between the two sides discussing cooperation plans, and the generals of Heiyundu did not take it seriously.

Chen De hurriedly separated everyone and said, "Stop Captain Xin, General Wu said something reasonable. You are the Yajun Captain, so if you don't go into battle this time."

Only then did Xin Gu obey the order and sue Chen De, and first arranged to arrange the Fifty-Tooth Army he brought to form the formation.

Ji Yan was generous and patiently waited in the tent with Chen De. Until Xin Gu sent someone to report that the infantry had already been arranged, he came to the school ground with the generals. When he saw the formations listed by the Jinfan Army, he said "huh" and thought that Chen De was indeed a little trick, but then he felt relieved. No matter how bad the formation was, he felt so bold in his heart. He turned to Chen De and smiled, and asked, "General Chen, let's start."

When Chen De saw Xin Gu following his instructions, he asked the Fifty-Tooth Army to arrange a defensive square formation. The soldiers on each side faced the formation with spears. The entire formation looked like a hedgehog, making the enemy unable to speak. He couldn't help but nod in his heart, thinking that although Xin Gu was honest, he was meticulous in training the formation of soldiers. However, Chen De only had the knowledge of the classic hollow square formation that was said to be against cavalry. Seeing that Wan Yan was indifferent, he couldn't help but feel a little worried. Then he turned his mind and nodded, "Let's start."
