Send these people away.

Seeing Yuan Xi, Jizhou nobleman Hao You and others gradually go away, Cao Cao's smile faded little by little. He turned to look at Cao Xiu and said, "How?"

A layman can watch the excitement, but an expert will know the ropes.

Cao Xiu opened his pocket and saw hot sweat rolling down from his head. The cushions originally inside his pocket were already soaked through. "Everyone is heavily armored and the horses are also armored. When fighting, the only way to survive is to rush forward."

You cannot fight for a long time due to your strength... and the cost of one cavalry is no less than a hundred soldiers..."

Cao Cao sighed slightly, "Does Wen Lie mean that this is such a waste of money? If we can really defeat ten thousand with a thousand, it will be worth it..."

Cao Xiu remained silent.

Cao Cao also looked into the distance and did not continue to say anything.

Of course, the disadvantages of the armored cavalry are not limited to these. If they had not secretly learned horseshoes from the hussar generals, and just acted like this, those broken wooden stakes and boards would have damaged many horseshoes! Plus!

Nowadays, the racecourse is almost completely controlled by the hussar generals. If Cao Cao wants to obtain war horses that can carry equipment, he not only has to pay more and more expensive prices, but also cannot ensure the reserve of replacement war horses. Once war losses occur, they will not be replaced.

Space replenishment!

These problems make it impossible to say that the actual combat value of the armored cavalry in front of us cannot be said to be without it, but they cannot be used casually like ordinary soldiers. And the troops that cannot be used casually and safely, no matter how strong their combat effectiveness is, how much value can they be said to have?

Cao Cao patted Cao Xiu's arm and said: "These armored cavalry will be commanded by Wen Lie Haosheng..."

Cao Xiu agreed, then seemed to realize something, and said: "Don't Ming Gong take these cavalry to Jingzhou..."

When Cao Cao heard this, he just laughed and waved his hand.

Cao Xiu took half a step back and said no more.

Cao Cao put these cavalry in Qinghe for training. On the one hand, the Qinghe land was relatively flat and suitable for cavalry training. On the other hand, the Qinghe land was originally the most unfavorable place for the Cao family to take over Yuan Shao's rule.

In the convinced area, there is such a strong cavalry, which is naturally a powerful deterrent to these Jizhou natives.

As for the land of Jingzhou, the northern half of Jingzhou is relatively flat and can be used by horseback. However, if you pass through Nanjun, there are many dense water nets and swamps. If you use cavalry, not only will the route be single, but it will also be severely restricted by the terrain, so it is not as good as ordinary people.

The infantry is flexible.

And there is another very important point. These armored cavalry, which cost a lot of money, are actually just a piece of goods now. If they are really brought to the battlefield now, I am afraid they will be exposed soon. If they are damaged, Cao Cao

There is really no capital to rebuild. To put it simply, Cao Cao's current economy is already heavily in debt and on the verge of collapse.

After sweeping up the iron ingots in Jizhou, it was naturally impossible for Cao Cao to pay them all in cash, and many of them still owed money. Why did he do this? Think about the time when Qin Shihuang collected his weapons and cast gold figures, and then look at Cao Cao's current situation in Jizhou...

From a certain perspective, Cao Cao collected the iron ingots on the market in Jizhou and pushed their prices to a high point. On the surface, it seemed to be to equip the cavalry, but in fact, there was a hidden purpose, which was to make the natives of Jizhou want to

The cost of resisting Cao Cao increased to the point that these people could no longer afford it.

Then at some point, Cao Cao can also release some iron ingots in batches, on the one hand to maintain this relatively expensive market, on the other hand to earn some price differences...

This is what Cao Cao learned from Fei Qian. After all, the current price of war horses is so high that Cao Cao feels like gnashing his teeth every time he buys one.

A penny can stump a heroic man!

Cao Cao's biggest purpose in planning Jingzhou was to make up for the economic deficit.

If Cao Cao were in later generations, he would definitely be a permanent resident on the blacklist of major banks. Because Cao Cao basically operated with debt and was basically demolishing the east wall to pay for the west wall.

When they entered Yanzhou, they borrowed their troops from Yuan Shao. Then they took Yanzhou's manpower, material and financial resources, took over Qingzhou, and owed a huge debt without having to repay them. Then they took over Xuzhou again and beat Tao Qian until he screamed and screamed.

The debt pile was on the verge of collapse, but Yuan Shu happened to make an overbearing act. Cao Cao slapped his thigh and once again asked the noble family to borrow money to beat Yuan Shu...

The money you borrow must always be repaid.

Fighting also costs money.

Cao Cao seemed to be like a master of using credit cards. He kept paying handling fees. While expanding his assets, he also owed more and more debts. Unfortunately, Cao Cao had nothing but

A large amount of land was acquired, and apart from collecting the original tax items, it did not create any specific new industries or produce any new products to obtain economic growth...

If there is no one to compare, there is actually no problem with Cao Cao's model. However, if the problem is compared with Fei Qian, the cavalry general in Guanzhong, Cao Cao can't help but sigh and have a headache.
