"With Ding Yuan bringing the border army into Luoyang and Lu Bu leaving Bingzhou, Bingzhou will fall into great emptiness;"

"By then, the Southern Xiongnu and Xianbei people will probably not just watch, they will inevitably invade Bingzhou and occupy Bingzhou's land;"

"By then, the warhorse and wool trade on the Zhang family's side will probably also be mostly cut off;"

"Must remind Zhang Wenyuan and Zhang Jiu to prepare in advance!"

Su Xuan thought.

Although Yanmen Commandery is easy to defend and hard to attack, if not careful, it's not that there won't be problems.

Moreover, the Zhang family will still go out of the pass to trade, so it's better to remind them early.

Immediately, Su Xuan had someone call Zhang Liao.

Said to Zhang Liao: "Zhang Wenyuan! The Yuan clan sent Ding Yuan to Bingzhou to recruit soldiers and buy horses, with impure motives;"

"Plus the Emperor's health is getting worse and worse, I estimate it will be only a few months;"

"By then, the Yuan clan and He Jin probably won't be honest;"

"They will likely find an excuse to transfer Ding Yuan's troops into Luoyang to serve the King;"

"By then, Bingzhou will inevitably be empty, which will likely lead to the invasion of the Xiongnu and Xianbei people;"

"You should immediately write a letter to your father, reminding him to prepare from now on and seize the time to trade a few batches of goods;"

"Then, start to shrink your Zhang family's business, don't go out of Yanmen Pass again!"

"I will also write to him!"

"Recently, the interval between the Su Family Chamber of Commerce and your Zhang family's trade will be shortened to once a month;"

"Let your father buy as many warhorses, cattle, sheep, and wool for me as possible in these few months!"

"This will probably be the last few times to trade these in the next few years;"

"It will be difficult to do this kind of business even if you want to later!"

He didn't ask Zhang Liao to persuade his family to move to Nanjun.

That's not very realistic.

The Zhang family in Ma Yi is not small, and they have taken root in Yanmen for so many years, so it's impossible for them to come to Nanjun easily.

Especially before the Emperor dies and the world is in chaos.

Fortunately, Su Xuan doesn't have to worry about anyone threatening him with Zhang Liao's family in the future.

Generally, warlords dare not commit such a great taboo to embarrass a big family like the Zhang family.

603 "What?"

Zhang Liao was startled upon hearing this: "I understand! I will write to my father right away!"

"I will also let him try every means to get more warhorses, cattle, sheep, and wool for the Lord in these few months."

Wool is actually very important.

This is the main material for making warm winter clothes in Su Xuan's army.

With wool winter clothes, even in the cold winter, Su Xuan's army can send troops as usual without affecting combat effectiveness.

Precisely because of this, over the years, Su Xuan has been hoarding winter clothes, wool quilts, wool blankets, etc., made of wool.

Considered as reserve military supplies.

Only a small part is sold.

The purpose is to get the cost back.

"That's good! Sorry to trouble you!"

Su Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

Over the past few years, he has never interrupted the trade of warhorses, cattle, sheep, wool, etc., with Lu Bu and the Zhang family.

Not to mention anything else, just warhorses, there are already 4 now.

This does not count the 18,000 warhorses of the Xuanjia Army and Xiaoqi Battalion, as well as nearly 2,000 warhorses of the personal guard battalion.

Because it is in batches, one horse is purchased every three months.

Plus Su Xuan opened up pastures in several basins in the mountains of Nanjun and built arrays to tame these warhorses.

There is no need to worry about being discovered.

Everything is done very secretly.

Currently, these warhorses, together with those in the army, have become exotic beasts, with greatly increased speed, endurance, and strength.

Even the equipment can be carried relatively easily.

Therefore, over the past few years, Su Xuan has built the Xuanjia Army, the personal guard battalion, and the Xiaoqi Battalion into armored iron cavalry.

Of course, to cover people's eyes and ears, they don't wear equipment when training or appearing in the sight of outsiders.

Just wearing ordinary steel armor.

This is already sharp enough.

"However, this Yuan clan and Ding Yuan are really selfish, actually ignoring the millions of Bingzhou people and preparing to mobilize the border army to leave Bingzhou;"

"Simply insane, how can they do such beastly acts?"

Zhang Liao scolded indignantly.

That is his hometown!

That is the territory of the Great Han!

Those are millions of innocent people!

"This is normal!"

Su Xuan sighed and shook his head: "In the eyes of people like the Yuan clan, the so-called people are just ants and grass that can be sacrificed and abandoned at will, and they won't feel heartache no matter how many die!"

"As long as they can achieve their goals and realize their ambitions, they will feel that it is worth it no matter how many people die."

Talking about humanity with these selfish big clans is a ridiculous thing in itself.

Because, for the sake of their interests, they have long abandoned humanity!

"If only the Lord could take charge of the world sooner!"

"I believe you will definitely be able to let the vast number of people live a good life;"

"I believe you will never let those Hu Ren invade our Han people again!"

On this point, in the few years Zhang Liao has been in contact with Su Xuan, and after understanding the development and governance of Nanjun in the past few years;
