Is this in Chapter 1359?
"Zaixing, Lao Niu, pick some men!"
After leaving the commander's tent, Yue Fei was excited and immediately ordered Yang Zaixing and Niu Gao to prepare to select people.
"Big brother, what kind of person do you need?"
Yang Zaixing was also extremely excited. Three years! He had waited for three years, and finally he could go out and beat people up! He had been holding back for these past three years!
"We need elite cavalry! Their riding skills must be excellent! Their archery skills must also be excellent!"
After thinking for a moment, Yue Fei put forward his request.
"We also need men who can fight in close combat. We only have three hundred men. This time we need to quickly break into the enemy camp. We can't linger in battle. We need to advance quickly and break out quickly, so our close combat skills must be excellent!"
"Pengju, these are all elite troops you're talking about. Can each battalion release them?"
Niu Gao asked with some concern.
"Why can't we release them? What did Commander Sun just say? I can choose any man from each battalion!"
Yue Fei exuded an aura of dominance at that moment.
"Our mission this time is to scout out the enemy camp as quickly as possible and then return as quickly as possible. We only have enough food for three days. I need elite troops. If they are not elite troops, then this is basically a doomed situation."
"Tell the commanders of each battalion that if they don't want their soldiers to die in vain, they should stop hiding their true intentions. I, Yue Fei, always repay what I borrow. Whatever troops I borrow today, I will return in the future!"
"What are you talking about, brother? Those are the foundation for our future."
Upon hearing that they had to be returned, Yang Zaixing became a little anxious. If these three hundred elite soldiers could all return this time, they would definitely be the elite of the elite. How could such soldiers be returned?
"Silly, if you don't say it this way, will they lend it to us? Let's borrow it first and then worry about paying it back later."
Yue Fei said that his senior brother had personally taught him how to be cunning.
"That makes sense. You're very thoughtful, brother!"
After hearing this, Yang Zaixing thought, "My older brother is indeed a genius."
Niu Gao remained silent. Firstly, he was older and more mature, and secondly, although he admired Yue Fei, he was not yet at the point where he could speak freely. Therefore, he simply followed orders at this moment.
"Alright, you two hurry up and select the men. I'm going to the quartermaster department to get the equipment."
"equipment?"
"Correct!"
Yue Fei couldn't hide the excitement on his face.
"Three hundred elite cavalrymen, this time I will make sure they all wear the best armor, ride the best horses, use the best swords and spears, and draw the hardest bows!"
"Pengju, it seems the commander-in-chief didn't approve our request to go to the quartermaster's office?"
Niu Gao said that although Yue Fei's idea was good, was this situation reasonable?
"It's alright, I know the people in the supply department well, I'm a cop by nature!"
Yue Fei was going all out. At worst, he could sincerely apologize to his senior brother after he won the battle.
"Alright! Let's go pick the people, and you go get the equipment!"
The three split up. Yue Fei went to the kitchen first, packed some things, and then rode quickly to the quartermaster's office, where he found the officer in charge of quartermaster.
"Brother Yue? What brings you here?"
Yue Fei's identity was not made public in the army. At most, everyone knew that he was the general's personal guard. However, as the quartermaster, Lao Luo was more perceptive than others. He always felt that Yue Fei's background was not so simple.
"Brother Luo, you're too kind. I can't just come and see you. Look what I brought you: a whole roasted lamb leg, and some wine, which is also warmed up."
Yue Fei handed over the things he had taken from the kitchen with a grin.
"A fine leg of lamb, some warm wine, what's up, kid?"
After taking the item, Lao Luo looked at Yue Fei's smiling face and asked directly.
"I can't hide it from you, brother, so I'll just say it straight: I'm here to ask for equipment."
"Equipment? Aren't you the commander-in-chief's personal guard? What do you need equipment for?"
Luo Yonghao jokingly asked back.
"Brother, there are rules in the military. There are some things I can't say. You understand."
Yue Fei put away his smile and answered seriously.
"A mission? Okay, I won't ask. What do you need? Swords and spears? Or bows and crossbows?"
When Lao Luo saw Yue Fei suddenly become serious, he also became serious.
"I want three hundred new battle swords, not the old ones, but the new designs from the Imperial Crafts Institute this year, and the ones newly made by the Forging Department."
"Ok?"
As soon as Yue Fei said this, Lao Luo's hand trembled. Good heavens, this kid really has a big background!
"We have this kind of knife here..."
Luo was still thinking of reducing the quantity, since the new knife was indeed very useful. Although the old model was lighter, it was sharper and more durable.
"Brother Luo, don't tell me we don't have any. Our Beiye has a great responsibility, and we absolutely cannot lack anything in terms of equipment."
Yue Fei tapped the table. Although he had abandoned himself in the north, he knew that his senior brother would never abandon him. So, whenever there was something good, his senior brother would send a message to inform him.
"Alright, three hundred it is. What else?"
"I need another three hundred sets of chainmail, all new, you can't give me used ones."
"Okay, okay, is there any more?"
"Three hundred double-headed spears, the kind that can be disassembled into two short spears."
"No, Brother Yue, what are you trying to do? Why are you only taking the good stuff from here?"
"This is nothing! I need another six hundred hard bows, each fully equipped with two quivers of quivers, and all of them must be armor-piercing arrows."
Yue Fei's demands were increasingly ruthless, making Lao Luo more and more alarmed as he listened.
"You only asked for three hundred swords and spears earlier, why do you want so many bows and arrows?"
"Three hundred men, each with two bows, that's six hundred!"
"Any more?"
"We also need six hundred fine, fast horses."
"Wait a minute!"
Luo was a bit dumbfounded. "Brother, you've come here to make a wish? You clearly have three hundred people and want six hundred horses? Two horses per person? When did Dayi become so wealthy?"
"Brother Yue, everything else is negotiable, but I really can't just give you these six hundred top-quality fast horses. Do you have any warrants? The commander's warrants?"
"No."
"Then I can't give it to you."
Luo Yonghao said, "With your configuration of 'one person, two horses,' who would dare to approve it?"
"But I have this."
Yue Fei took something out of his pocket and placed it in front of Lao Luo.
"Brother Luo, do you have this? Is that alright?"
"This, this is..."
Luo Yonghao was no longer calm, because he recognized what it was.
Officials at the Dayi Military Supply Department received training before taking up their posts, one of the most important aspects of which was learning to recognize the mobilization tokens issued exclusively by Ren Yuan.
The token features a statue of Ren Yuan, along with his personal inscription.
Generally speaking, only the commanders of each army have such mobilization tokens. The holder of the token, if personally present, can directly request supplies from the quartermaster during battle, and the quartermaster must cooperate unconditionally!
The fact that Yue Fei possessed a token shows that his identity was indeed extraordinary!
"Brother Luo, is it okay now?"
"Sure! I'll give you whatever you want! Here's what we've got: I also have a batch of short firearms that the Heavenly Crafts Academy just sent over. They can only be used as concealed weapons, but you should take them with you too..."
