Pirate Song

After listening to Gao Huaiyuan's stories about foster dogs and Tibetan mastiffs, everyone couldn't help but sigh.

Gao Huaiyuan didn't talk too much. He just told everyone some stories he knew about Tibetan war mastiffs and some real stories about foster dogs, but the impact on these teenagers was quite big.

"Alas! Actually, if you think about it, in many cases, people may not even be as good as a dog. Dogs are loyal to their masters, but in fact some people don't know what loyalty is at all! I don't care about others, if anyone among us dares

If he betrays the young master, I, Li Ergou, will never let him go!" After listening to these stories told by Gao Huaiyuan, Li Ergou clenched his fists, waved them vigorously and said loudly.

The other people also nodded. Unintentionally, Gao Huaiyuan taught the teenagers around him another lesson with the dog story, which was an unexpected gain.

"If the story about the war mastiffs told by the young master is true, then if we also build a war mastiff army like this, wouldn't we be invincible? Otherwise, the young master will also find a way to bring back a group of war mastiffs!"

Zhou Hao was very interested in Gao Huaiyuan's story about the war mastiffs of the Tubo tribes, so he continued.

"Haha! You can buy war mastiffs just by buying them! You know, Tibetans regard their Tibetan mastiffs as their relatives, not to mention the war mastiffs they have worked so hard to train! I want to get one in the short term.

Not to mention it is impossible to train Tibetan Mastiffs. Even if we do get them, we don’t know how to tame them, so we don’t need to think about it now!

Although the big dogs we have got now are nothing compared to the Tibetan Mastiffs in Tibet, if they are trained strictly, they are still good dogs. Once used, they can be regarded as a rare force! There is no need to think about the Tibetan Mastiffs for now.

Just train these guys in our hands. As for letting them go into battle, I'm afraid we need to train them more over time!

You guys who are responsible for raising dogs need to pay more attention to this matter. I have told you all the methods I know about training military dogs. The next step is for you to slowly explore and treat these guys as your own.

As a friend, you must also remember that a biting dog does not bark! If you want to win by surprise, the dogs must not only be obedient, but also be able to bark without warning. Otherwise, if they alert the enemy, they will not be considered as surprise soldiers.

!”

Gao Huaiyuan reached out and patted the head of the big black dog sitting at his feet. The big black dog comfortably put its head into Gao Huaiyuan's arms and let Gao Huaiyuan scratch its chin.

Zhao Tong, who was sitting on the side listening to Gao Huaiyuan's words, suddenly stood up and said to Gao Huaiyuan: "Master! Let the younger one do this! The younger one's other abilities are not as good as those of the other brothers, but he has liked to follow Gao Huaiyuan since he was a child.

When it comes to dealing with dogs, I know very well the tempers of some dogs. I will definitely find a way to train a group of good dogs for the young master, and I will ensure that they will not disappoint the young master’s expectations!”

After Zhao Tong was rescued from the Ezhou Prison by Gao Huaiyuan this time, his injuries have been fully recovered after a period of recovery. Now he can be said to be a vigorous and powerful man. He is even more grateful for Gao Huaiyuan's grace. This time

After Gao Huaiyuan got these big dogs, he also raised dogs with Gao Huaiyuan. Especially after listening to Gao Huaiyuan telling so many stories about military dogs, he also felt that dog training was not bad, and he could at least repay Gao Huaiyuan.

What a kindness to him! That’s why I stood up and asked for help.

"Oh? Zhao Tong, are you really so confident?" Gao Huaiyuan looked at Zhao Tong with a smile and asked.

"The young master has told us before that nothing is difficult in the world, as long as there are people who are willing to do it! I think, as long as we work hard, it is impossible not to be able to raise dogs! I will definitely do my best to do this!" Zhao

He replied to Gao Huaiyuan seriously with the same face.

"Okay! As long as you have such determination, I think you will be able to do this well! If nothing happens, you can also go around and try to collect as many good dogs as possible. It doesn't matter how much you spend, the key is to select

A batch of good dog breeds are coming out. Real military dogs must not only be ferocious and ferocious, but also be understanding and obey their master's orders!

Once put to use, these dogs can not only go into battle to kill enemies, but can also be used for guarding camps, reconnaissance, sneak attacks, arson, etc. You can subdivide their uses according to the characteristics of some dogs, and each has its own purpose.

A specially trained dog is more useful than a generally trained dog! I’ll leave this matter to you, Zhao Tong! Don’t let me live up to my expectations!”

Gao Huaiyuan patted Zhao Tong on the shoulder and said sincerely to the young men responsible for raising dogs.

Zhao Tong and others immediately stood up, knocked their feet, and stood at attention in a standard posture, and loudly agreed: "Don't worry, young master, you guys will work hard!"

Gao Huaiyuan laughed loudly. Originally, what happened this time was just unintentional. He just wanted to get a few dogs to guard the house and guard the home. Now that he did this, it was very likely that a military dog ​​unit would be created.

This incident is an unexpected move!

When Gao Huaiyuan watched Zhao Tong and the others starting to train these big dogs, his heart suddenly moved slightly, and he remembered another thing. When he went on an expedition with the army this time, Gao Huaiyuan was deeply troubled by the inconvenience of communication.

Most of them rely on human power to deliver the message, which is not only slow, but also prone to errors. During the last battle in Qifang Town, it was because the messenger sent by Meng Zongzheng did not deliver the message to them in time, which was the reason why he was in danger.

Almost the entire army's supply camp was wiped out in Qifang Town.

Also, he is likely to go out frequently in the future, and his business will become bigger and bigger, eventually spreading all over the country. If he still relies on manpower to deliver news, it will not only waste time, but also be prone to problems. How to solve this problem?

What about communication issues?

Gao Huanyuan was suddenly inspired by this dog-raising incident. If he could establish a military dog ​​unit, why couldn't he establish a homing pigeon unit?

"Jia Qi, come here!" Gao Huaiyuan stretched out his hand to greet Li Ergou who was passing by him.

"What do you want the young master to do?" Jia Qi immediately ran over and stood still before asking Gao Huaiyuan.

"Jia Qi, you are relatively familiar with this area. Have you ever heard of anyone raising pigeons in nearby counties?" Gao Huanyuan asked Li Ergou casually.

Jiaqi has been wandering around the streets since his parents died. He has a lot of experience and is quite familiar with the area around Daye. After listening to Gao Huaiyuan's question, he thought for a while and scratched his head and said: "Pigeon"

? It should be a bird similar to a turtle dove! The young master really asked the right person! I have actually seen someone raising this thing! I remember a few years ago, when I wandered to Tongshan County, I saw a person

We raise a lot of these things at home. The younger one even teased two of them with corn and burned them. They tasted really good! The young master doesn’t want to try this thing! Would you like me to get some for the young master to try?

Taste it?"

Gao Huaiyuan almost laughed out loud. Jia Qi is so delicious and doesn't have many hobbies. Most of the time he either likes to read in the house or sneak some wild game. Although he is not good at it, he still enjoys it.

He has practiced quite good archery skills just to satisfy his appetite. When it comes to food, this guy is generally more energetic.

"You guys just know how to eat! Be careful, don't pursue one thing too much, otherwise, this habit may become a weakness in you, and you may be taken advantage of! Remember

Live this!

And I ask you about pigeons, not to eat them, but to use them for other purposes. If you know, please go to Tongshan County and find that family to buy some pairs of good pigeons.

Come back, we will raise a group of pigeons in the future, I will be of great use!" Gao Huaiyuan couldn't help but give Jiaqi a few words and told him to get a few pairs of pigeons.

When Jia Qi heard that Gao Huaiyuan didn't want to eat pigeons, he was taught a lesson by Gao Huaiyuan, so he scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "I remember what the young master said. I'm just a little greedy, but I still deserve it."

If you know the seriousness of the matter, you will never mess up the matter just because you are delicious! If the young master wants pigeons, I will go to Tongshan County to buy some for the young master! The young man of that family is now

I still remember clearly that the man who raised pigeons was a lame man. He had no wife and no children. He cultivated several acres of thin fields by himself and just liked to raise pigeons. When I was young, I heard that after he ate some of his pigeons, the lame man stayed there all day for many days.

The few pigeons that were wandering around outside, blowing bamboo whistles and looking for him, also heard that the pigeons raised by this lame man could fly home on their own no matter how far they flew! Later, the little one saw that the lame man was looking for him pitifully, so he never stole them again.

He wanted to buy his pigeons! But I still remember that this lame man never wanted to sell his pigeons. Someone once wanted to buy his pigeons, but he kicked them out! I just don’t know if he can get the money if he goes this time.

, sell his pigeons! I’m afraid it’s a bit difficult!”

Upon hearing this, Gao Huaiyuan became interested in this lame man raising pigeons, so he hurriedly said: "Oh? Is there such a thing? It seems that the lame man you mentioned is really a pigeon fanatic! In this case, prepare more money to bring with you

With you, I will go with you to Tongshan County! I really want to meet this pigeon fanatic!"

Jia Qi didn't know why Gao Huaiyuan was suddenly so interested in pigeons. He scratched his head and said, "Why is the young master suddenly so interested in pigeons? Now that Zhuangzi is so busy, it's better for me to go to Tongshan County! If the lame man doesn't

If he is willing to sell it to me, I will find a way to steal some of his pigeons! Does the young master need to go there himself? "

"No, no! This matter is very important. I'd better go with you! You must know that pigeons are different from other birds. They all come in pairs. If you steal a few back,

It may not be possible to breed successfully, and maybe it will ruin a few pairs of good pigeons? This kind of bird is a affectionate bird. If it is a good pigeon, if it fails, if you steal a single pigeon back, the remaining ones will be lost.

One of them will die without food or water! That would be a pity! Although things in Zhuangzi are busy now, everything is basically ready! I'd better go with you! You go and clean up, we will go out in the afternoon!"

Gao Huaiyuan shook his head.

Seeing Gao Huaiyuan's firm attitude, Jia Qi nodded and agreed. He ran to Liu'er and withdrew some money. After eating, after Gao Huaiyuan arranged things in Zhuangzi, he followed Gao Huaiyuan out of the bedroom.

Huzhuang, heading towards Tongshan County.

Tongshan County is more than a hundred miles south of Daye County. Gao Huaiyuan took Jia Qi and Li Ergou and drove a donkey cart towards Tongshan County, sightseeing the mountains and rivers all the way.

Also relax your mind and body. During this period of time, Gao Huaiyuan is really feeling a little tired after working day and night. This trip to the mountains can be regarded as a bit of laziness!

When he came back from Xiangyang some time ago, Gao Huaiyuan actually wanted to bring back the war horses in his camp. However, because the war horses were extremely valuable items in the army, they were marked and could not be taken home casually.

So he asked Huang Yan and others to give it to Meng Gong by the way, and Quan took it as a gift to Meng Gong. Now that he has returned to Daye County, he can only continue to use his mules and donkeys. Such large animals are used for pulling

It's okay to do some farm work, but it's a little uncomfortable if you're on the road!

However, even such large livestock became scarce after the war between the Song and Jin Dynasties. Many animals were recruited into the army and used in the army. It is good to have a group of such animals in Wohu Village!

Gao Huaiyuan really wished he could raise some horses of his own, but the water and soil in the south were not conducive to raising horses, and stallions were now extremely hard to come by, so he could only rely on these things to survive!

Although the three of them were driving the car, they all followed it on foot. This was a habit that Gao Huaiyuan had developed for a long time. Now because he was too busy and was usually involved in many complicated affairs, his time for practicing martial arts had to be reduced.

For most of the year, in order to maintain physical training, Gao Huaiyuan braved the scorching heat and wore his iron sand vest at all times, with iron sand bags on his legs.

He still didn't relax after training.

This has won the admiration of the people around them, so these teenagers are now consciously imitating Gao Huaiyuan's appearance. Those who can walk will never be lazy, and their bodies are all very strong.

Looking at the donkey pulling the cart slowly, Gao Huaiyuan's thoughts unknowingly slipped back to the Mongol army. Thinking about this matter, he felt a little worried. Since ancient times, the Central Plains regime has been repeatedly defeated by the nomads in the north.

National invasion, although from the perspective of modern people's thinking, these ethnic minorities are also part of Greater China, and he himself has no thoughts of discriminating against ethnic minorities, but as a Han Chinese, he has to consider the Han people in this era,

Although there is still some time before the Southern Song Dynasty is completely destroyed, it can even be said that there are still decades to survive. Even if he does not die of old age by then, he will probably be in his twilight years!

Maybe he shouldn't be so worried about this matter, but since arriving in this era, he has begun to have more and more worries about the people and affairs he needs to protect. Although the Southern Song Dynasty was weak, it was the most prosperous in Chinese history.

In this era, whether it is technology, culture, or economy, it can be called the pinnacle of the world. However, just because of the mistakes of a group of people in the imperial court, it was eventually wiped out, so that after the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, China's peak era has been

It was completely lost in the long river of history and began to decline from then on.

When he was studying history, he criticized the Song Dynasty and felt that the Song Dynasty was the most useless among the Han dynasties in Chinese history. However, when he traveled to this era, he realized that it was actually the same as what he had learned.

There are great differences in history. This era can be said to be an era that the Han people should be proud of. Except for the military aspect, which is not worth mentioning, the rest can be said to be far superior to the previous dynasties ruled by the Han people.

In Gao Huaiyuan's previous life, I heard something from a friend who knew something about history. Although the Han and Tang dynasties were indeed proud dynasties in Chinese history, the Song Dynasty should never be underestimated. The Han Dynasty should not be underestimated.

There are amazing differences between the founding of the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty in history. If you think about it carefully, you will find that the two dynasties of the Han and Tang Dynasties are very similar: both dynasties were built on another unified dynasty. The Han Dynasty inherited Qin Zuo, and the Tang Dynasty inherited

Sui Zuo, but at the beginning of the establishment of the Song Dynasty, it seemed that things were not so good. Before the Northern Song Dynasty, there was the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. It can be said that Song Taizu unified the Central Plains with one sword and one shot, and did not inherit the political legacy of the previous dynasty at all.

When the Northern Song Dynasty was established, a behemoth, the Liao Kingdom, had already been established in the north.

When the Han Dynasty was established, the main enemy was only one Xiongnu, but after the Tang Dynasty was established, there was only one Turk. Moreover, before the establishment of the two dynasties, both the Qin and Sui Dynasties died. The country was in turmoil not long ago and did not experience a long period of peace.

The country's economy suffered little damage due to the turmoil, and the main enemy it faced was not a country in the full sense, but could only be regarded as a huge tribal alliance.

When the Song Dynasty was established, the domestic war had been going on for a long time, and both the economy and the military were severely damaged. Moreover, they were facing a huge enemy country like the Liao Kingdom that had been established long before them, so they were unlucky enough to be unable to defeat them. Later,

Coupled with the wrong military thinking of the Song Dynasty, the Central Plains was gradually lost because it had to face too many enemies. Before the Song Dynasty was first established, it lost the land that produced horses, so that in wars, it was always due to the lack of cavalry.

, unable to remain invincible, so the Song Dynasty as a whole was not weak, but it was just born at the wrong time!

The current situation is even more serious for the Southern Song Dynasty. Compared with the Northern Song Dynasty, the Southern Song Dynasty can be said to have a shortage of war horses. Except for Dali, a small country can currently send war horses to the Southern Song Dynasty, and the Dali horses are not that good in size and physical strength.

, if the Southern Song Dynasty wanted to make a difference in the military, it would be really not easy, especially when facing Mongolia, a beast that is almost a war machine, it would be much at a disadvantage.dd
