Your Lord Can Make Salt?
"Your name is Zhang Cheng?"
Chai Shao looked at the middle-aged man kneeling in the middle of the tent and asked.
"Duke Hui, I am Zhang Cheng, the commander of Dongyang Fort.”
Zhang Cheng quickly cupped his hands and replied.
"Get up."
"Here!"
"Today, you encountered the Qiang people snatching food?”
"Yes, we killed more than 40 people and only slightly injured three of our men.”
Zhang Cheng was a little excited.
This battle was fought beautifully, and anyone who participated in this battle would be rewarded.
One head was worth 200 copper coins, so 40 heads were worth 8 strings of coins.
His boss usually wouldn't share the rewards from killing the enemy, and those nobles didn't care about the money, so he and his men divided the eight strings of money equally. Each of them had a few hundred coins.
Just thinking about it made him happy.
"Yes."
Chai Shao had already found someone to verify the results of the battle and did not lie about his military achievements.
"Tell me the details. How did you achieve this great victory?”
Chai Shao said.
He was curious.
It must be known that both the Qiang and the Turks were people who rode on horseback and were especially skilled in riding and archery. Although the Great Tang cavalry had not been weak in recent years, and could still contend with the Turks.
But at most, they were about the same.
The Great Tang had been able to achieve such a great victory because of its advanced equipment and its high morale.
However, the main reason was that the generals were good at fighting.
Especially the War God Li Jing, who had ambushed the Eyang Ridge on a snowy night and captured Jie Li alive, laying the foundation for this victory.
But if the Great Tang cavalry encountered the Turkic or Qiang cavalry in the wild, they would not have much of an advantage in a head-on clash.
Not to mention, the 50 cavalry had defeated over a hundred Qiang cavalry and killed over 40 people.
This was also the reason why Chai Shao placed so much importance on this battle.
Zhang Cheng was a little shy.
"Duke, this, how can I say this?”
"Just say what you want to say."
Beside him, Qin Qiong frowned and said.
"That's right. Young Duke Cheng said that there was an enemy attack, so our brothers mounted their horses and lined up in two groups. Our lord led us to charge, and in one charge, we killed more than 30 people. When we turned our horses around and prepared to charge again, those barbarians were so scared that they peed their pants and fled in all directions. Then we chased after them and killed more than 10 people.”
Err...
It was indeed thin enough.
"Just one charge?"
Chai Shao didn't believe it.
"Yes."
Qin Qiong seemed to have thought of something and asked again," Your lord is called Zhao Yiyang?”
"Yes."
Zhang Cheng answered honestly.
"He knows body refining techniques?"
"Yes."
"How's the effect?"
"It's hard to say. However, from today's battle, the effect is pretty good.”
In Cheng Yaojin's letter to him, he said that this guy called Zhao Yiyang was a clueless person who tortured those rascals to death. Qin Qiong thought that it was the Emperor's imperial edict, but now it seemed that this person should know how to refine body techniques.
What was a body refining technique?
In layman's terms, it was the training method of the special forces.
During the Three Kingdoms period, Gao Shun's Breaking Ranks Camp had dominated the world because Gao Shun knew body refinement techniques.
Then, Cao Cao's Tiger Leopard Cavalry and Liu Bei's White Ears Army could be considered the special forces of the Three Kingdoms period.
During the Liu Song period, Liu Yu relied on the Bei Fu soldiers to make a name for himself and was invincible.
It was also because he was proficient in body refining techniques.
Qin Qiong and Chai Shao were both veterans who had been through the battlefield for a long time. They naturally knew the importance of body refinement techniques to the army.
However, they couldn't go to Dongyang Castle now. Without His Majesty's decree, it was taboo for a general to befriend the Crown Prince.
"You came to Lan Province City to ask for a reward, right? Go to the quartermaster and ask for 10 strings of money. 8 strings are what you deserve, and the remaining 2 strings are what I will reward you with.”
Chai Shao said.
"Thank you, Duke."
Zhang Cheng was overjoyed.
"Duke, Dongyang Castle is short of salt. Do you think..."
He saw that Chai Shao was happy and probed.
"I also lack salt. Get lost."
Chai Shao said with a straight face.
"Yes... It's just that…"
He stammered.
"If you have something to say, say it."
"My lord asked me to buy some equipment back. He said…He said…"
"What did he say?"
"He said he had a way to get salt out of mineral salt.”
"What?"
Hearing this, Chai Shao and Qin Qiong stood up in unison, their four tiger eyes staring fixedly at Zhang Cheng.
"Say it again, your master knows how to make salt?”
