, he didn’t express any opinions, as if waiting for Ming Yu to continue.

Ming Yu didn’t intend to keep the person in front of him waiting.
Xie Yixiu looked like the kind of person that was outwardly cold but deep and passionate inside.
It was better to take the initiative to speak up in front of this kind of person.
Throwing out a bad idea could potentially lead to something good, so he said: “The Red Robe Army triumphs in every battle and wins every fight.
But in the end, the numbers are too small.
If there are tens of thousands or even several tens of thousands of people and horses, how can the barbarians of Suixi Kingdom dare to do anything rashly? I heard there are only five thousand people in the Red Robe Army, but one has not dared to expand the army because there are no more good horses.” He saw Xie Yixiu’s fingers increase in frequency, and he knew he had hit it spot on, “It’s a pity! Good, precious warhorses, nevertheless could only be discovered but not sought in the Great Yan Kingdom.
However, what if I say that I can bring these precious horses over…..”

Before Ming Yu finished speaking, Xie Yixiu suddenly stood up in a flash, “What did you say?”

Ming Yu smiled like a fox, slowly turned back to his seat, took a sip of tea, and said unhurriedly: “Ben Wang can bring the horses here.
I wonder if General Xie is willing to cooperate?”

Xie Yixiu couldn’t believe it, what ability does Duan Wang have to get the precious warhorses? This matter was of great importance, how can it be treated as a joke at will? But looking at Ming Yu’s expression, it didn’t seem to be a joke.

Seeing the unmoved Xie Yixiu finally changing his expression, the corner of Ming Yu’s mouth could not stop rising.
He brought up his right half-fisted hand against his mouth and coughed slightly, covering the smile on his lips.
He said confidently: “General Xie, it’s normal that you don’t believe me.
How about this, half a year, let’s set a time limit of half a year.
During this half year, your two Ji and Cao generals will stay at Ben Wang’s training base.
After half a year, Ben Wang will send you five horses that are not inferior to any of the good horses in the Red Robe Army.”

“Half a year?” Xie Yixiu asked.

Ming Yu nodded, Xie Yixiu didn’t know where his confidence came from.
In half a year’s time, where could he obtain good horses from? Xie Yixiu lowered his eyes slightly.
It is a well-known fact that their Great Yan Kingdom lacked horses.
Because of this, the barbarians, who made a living on nomads, relied on their strong soldiers and horses to invade Great Yan Kingdom every year.

Xie Yixiu was about to break his head but he still couldn’t figure out how Ming Yu could have such a great skill.

Regardless of whether Ming Yu would be stealing or robbing, the more precious horses, the better.
This matter was greatly beneficial to Xie Yixiu.
Since it was profitable and harmless, Xie Yixiu naturally had no reason not to agree.

Now speaking to this part, Xie Yixiu naturally and logically agreed, “Alright! But the two generals’ triple pay by Wangye…”

Ming Yu twitched the corners of his mouth, the main part was already given away, would he even care about this little bit of silver money? He patted his chest and said, “Don’t worry, since I said it then naturally it will count.” However, Ming Yu silently cursed in his mind.
General Xie’s reputation as a sly person is indeed well-deserved.
It could be considered that he had finally gained first hand experience of it.

But now that Xie Yixiu agreed, Ming Yu was also happy.
He had reached the goal of keeping the two people behind, in that way, he was once again able to make progress again.

Ming Yu approached Xie Yixiu with a smile, grabbed his shoulders, and said enthusiastically: “General Xie, now that we are all familiar with each other, it’s better for us to cooperate more.
You see, our guard camps lack real swords, real spears, real combat experience, and your Red Robe Army has rich combat experience.
It just so happens that both of us can arrange a few real combat training sessions so that my cubs can grasp the actual combat skills as soon as possible.
Do your cubs also need this kind of sparring partner?”

Xie Yixiu’s face turned blue.
He had never liked to be close to people, but this person was too shameless to actually get this close to him, even putting arms around his shoulders and being intimate.
Is this really the fourteenth prince of the Kingdom, the current Duan Wangye? But how does he have the slightest demeanor of a Wangye? If Xie Yixiu hadn’t taken into consideration his status as a Wangye, he’s afraid he would have thrown a punch then gone out already.

“Wangye, please conduct yourself with dignity!” Xie Yixiu gritted his teeth and reminded.

Ming Yu released him, flicked his sleeves, returned to his seat, then curled up the corner of his lips, “Qi (whispering sound)! How boring.
I’m saying this to you, but you’re still young, why do you talk and do things like those old and stubborn people? Hai! Always sporting a stiff face, aren’t you tired of it?”

Xie Yixiu finally breathed a sigh of relief and ignored Ming Yu’s sarcasm.
Only then, did he have time to think about his proposal just now.
He didn’t know what this real combat training would do.
Could it be a new thing he made up again?

Before he figured out anything, Ming Yu had already explained it to him in high spirits, “It means that each of our two sides will come out with their true abilities, at an appointed place.
They will fight a battle, compete in tactics, commands, and strategies.
Teamwork and cohesion, as well as individual combat capabilities, and so on to see who wins and who loses in the end.”

It sounded like a good proposal.
Xie Yixiu has never seen such a competition before.
These days, it is quite peaceful in the borderland.
Having this kind of training could also increase the enthusiasm of soldiers in training.
It’s just… Xie Yixiu raised his concerns, “It’s just that the sword has no eyes.
If there are casualties during the practice, it will not be nice.”

Xie Yixiu obviously had the intent, but this concern was really nothing to worry about for Ming Yu.
