I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 447 The villain turned out to be me!

Lu Bu said calmly, "Our army only has these 3 cavalry. If you don't fight with the big army, are you going to wipe out our army's 3 cavalry?"

Hao Meng's chief general, Gao Gan, held back his anger and said, "Our troops suffered too many casualties, I'm afraid it's hard for us to undertake the task of blocking the main army!"

There were only 2 infantrymen under Gao Gan, but more than 3000 soldiers died in the fierce battle today, which is close to 2% of the casualties, so the morale of the Han army infantry is generally not high!

Lu Bu mocked: "Whose territory do you think Lei Gong is attacking now, and who are we fighting for? Don't you pay more, are you still counting on our guest army?"

Then Lu Bu looked at Yuan Tan and said, "The cavalry of the Dagan Army have the upper hand. If they are unwilling, then this battle will be very difficult to fight!"

Yuan Tan just saw a little hope of defeating the Dagan army, so naturally he couldn't let it go like this, and he also knew that Lu Bu did nothing wrong. The entire coalition army of the Han princes only had 3 cavalry, but each family had dozens of infantrymen. Ten thousand, this determines that the status of infantry is not as good as that of cavalry!

Yuan Tan could only pull Gao Gan back and said: "Yuancai now knows the importance of Yanzhou to us. Lu Bu and the others are guest troops, and it is impossible to fight to the death for us. We have to make sacrifices, and the cavalry in father's hands On this point, if all of them are lost in Yanzhou, it will be difficult for us to fight in the future. Now you can only make some sacrifices from your subordinates. I can assure you that if you die one soldier, I will let my father make up for two. ! We have been fighting Dagan for several years, and this time the odds are high!"

Gao Gan is Yuan Shao's nephew, and he and Yuan Tan are cousins, so he naturally understands the meaning of defeating Dagan's army now Yuan Shao!He could only nod bitterly in recognition of Lu Bu's mission.

The sunset glow disappeared and darkness fell. Huanglong stood in front of the simple camp and looked in the direction of Lihu in the south. Because they wanted to support Duan Peng and the others, Huanglong's subordinates marched 60 miles a day. Now everyone was exhausted, and the camp was full of snoring.But because of this level of forced march, his subordinates could only set up a simple camp, so in order to keep himself safe, Huang Long spread out the scouts in a radius of 10 miles to prevent being attacked by the enemy!
And at this moment, several scout horses rushed into the camp and came to Huang Long, and then handed a letter to Huang Long.Huang Long's face was very ugly after reading the letter, but Duan Peng actually suffered a small defeat, and he even hurt He Feng!

Fu Yun also went up to read the battle report just sent by Duan Peng, and was surprised: "This Lu Bu is actually so powerful? He Feng died in his hands!"

Huang Long said solemnly: "Now the big man has gathered all the famous fighters to deal with us. Don't say that Zhao Yun has already become famous, but Zhang Liao who appeared yesterday before the battle with Song Yi, who knows his name, but he can easily hit Song Yi hard. Yi, you must know that Song Yi has been a horse thief for decades, and he has spent half his life licking blood. His martial arts skills can rank among the top ten in our career, but he was easily injured by Zhang Liao, an unknown soldier, and like I don't know how many such strong men there are!"

Fuyun also sighed: "I really don't know what's going on with the big men now? I remember that it was our Yellow Turban Army that could easily pull out hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops, but we added all the old and weak women and children There is no way to solve the problem of food and grass. The big man can send out tens of thousands of elites, which is already very much. We are about to defeat the big man, and the Han Dynasty can only send hundreds of thousands of troops. And their generals are also very Timid, I remember when the great virtuous and good teacher led us to attack the city and conquer the territory, and easily occupied the eight states of the Han Dynasty, those Han generals knew how to escape.

But now, a random unknown young general is so brave, and the big man has so many troops, he can have an army of 2000!We have a population of more than 30 million under the rule of the Dagan, but we can only pull out an army of 2. The population under the rule of the Dahan seems to be more than 80 million. Why did 300 suddenly emerge, and to maintain this army, I am afraid that only the civilians will be able to maintain it. It took one or two million, the food and grass for nearly [-] million people, I really don't know how they got it! "

Fuyun found that the changes of the big men in the past few years are not much less than their big cadres. They can recruit hundreds of thousands of troops, equip hundreds of thousands of armors, and guarantee the food consumption of nearly 300 million people. Before coming to Dahan, the urban population of the entire Dahan might have been this number.And it was impossible to support such a large number of full-time people during the period of Emperor Ling!
Huang Long said calmly: "The big man became what he is now, because we were forced out by the army! Let's talk about generals. Didn't the big man have famous generals before? Then what's going on with Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao now? Not to mention Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Lu Bu and others who came out after the great virtuous master's uprising, which one of them has no qualifications for a famous general!"

"But before the great virtuous teacher started the incident, the generals of the Han Dynasty were all from the noble family. What kind of celebrities are many school captains and generals? They don't need to fight, and they can be promoted to the position of general just by relying on their reputation. Dong Zhuo, warriors like Liu Bei are not wandering in the border counties, living in poverty among the people, and after we revolted, we defeated all the big Han generals Gao Diliang, and this gave Dong Zhuo and Liu Bei a chance to stand out!"

"To a certain extent, the great virtuous and good teachers are the old masters of Dong Zhuo and Liu Bei. It is not the great virtuous and good teachers who rebelled. Dong Zhuo and Liu Bei should not want to stand out for the rest of their lives!"

Huang Long's words made Fu Yun laugh out loud, it was really hard for him to imagine that Liu Bei and Dong Zhuo were former officials of great virtuous teachers, this statement is really too funny!

But the details make sense. If it weren't for the great virtuous teacher, Dong Zhuo would never have appeared in the Central Plains for the rest of his life, and Liu Bei could only become the leader of the ranger in Youzhou, and it is impossible to become the general of the big man now!
Huang Long continued: "A large army of 200 and 2 million civilians may seem like a lot, but according to the calculation that one soldier consumes 300 shi of food in a month, 600 million people consume only 3600 million shi in a month, and the consumption of this battle is less than half a year. It's only [-] million stones!"

"But is 3600 million shi really a lot of grain? According to our big dry land, it is only the output of 1000 million mu of land. You say that the state where the big man has the output of 1000 million acres of land! If it weren't for the few days in Yanzhou There is a drought this year, I am afraid that Yanzhou can provide these grains."

Although Liu Bei is supporting the food and grass of the coalition forces, it seems that the burden is heavy, but Liu Bei only needs to support the consumption of food and grass for the 40 troops marching in the direction of Yanzhou, and Liu Bei has been developing Jiangnan for these years, and it is not impossible to support 600 troops. The terrain is flat, and now there is a drought. Although the grain harvest is desperate, this kind of weather is not enough for the transportation of grain, grass and heavy troops, not to mention Liu Bei's capture of Yizhou. And down, and then from Hanshui to Li County, it can be said that what Liu Bei really wants to transport is the [-]-mile journey from Yingchuan to Dingtao, and Liu Bei can still support the consumption of this distance!

The 80 army looks like a lot, but it’s not much at all. Don’t forget that when he was in power and gave us a class, he said that in the Warring States period before the Han Dynasty, even if there were hundreds of years of war, before the first emperor unified the seven kingdoms, Qin The country can give 60, the Chu country 40, the Zhao country 20, the Qi country 30, the Yan country 20, the Wei country 20, and South Korea 10.The total military strength of each country is about 200 million, but the population of the first emperor unified the world is only 2000 million, and the ratio of soldiers to civilians is almost ten to one!It can be seen that the potential of the Han soldiers is still huge, and it is not surprising that the coalition forces of the Han have come up with 200 million troops! "

Fuyun sighed: "Yes, even the simplest calculations can be calculated that the big man can easily recruit a million troops, but why is it difficult to maintain an army of 10 in the end!"

Then Huanglong sneered: "All of these are benefits. In the past, the big man could only have an army of tens of thousands, and even if it exceeded 10, it would be difficult to maintain the big Han court, and the Emperor Ling had to buy and sell officials. It is because the interests of the world have been annexed by the powerful clan of the great man, and they are the chief culprits for the decline of the great man!
If all the resources of the big men are invested in the army, let alone a million-strong army, even a five-million-strong army can be recruited!The interests of the world can feed 500 million troops, but the big man can't even support 500 troops, and the emperor wants to buy and sell officials!Who do you say these interests are occupied by! "

Those elite families kept saying that the emperor of the Han Dynasty should be close to the virtuous ministers, but they didn't know that the emperor of the Han Dynasty had always done what they said, but they didn't think that the villain was themselves! "

Fu Yun had a sense of sudden realization: "The nobles and nobles of the big man are so greedy, no wonder the ruling party doesn't accept them!"

Huang Long said coldly: "Because the big man has already given them all that can be given to the nobles, we can't afford this price, the ruling simply cut off the rich nobles and gave these benefits to the common people, you See if we work hard, we can easily form an army of hundreds of thousands!"

"And the reason why the military strength of the Han has grown so fast over the years is not because the powerful clans have spit out the benefits of their annexation of the world, so even if the Han suffered from a drought and we still robbed half of the land and people, we can still Recruit 80 troops, and even arm an armored army of hundreds of thousands.

From here, we can see how greedy these nobles are. I am afraid that the interests of the whole world will be annexed by them for more than 80%. The 200 army is far from their limit. In terms of the population of the big man, it should be able to support [-] people. Wan Dajun! "

"So even if we defeated the 80 troops of the Han allied forces this time, as long as we don't change our policy of slaughtering the nobles and nobles, the nobles and nobles of the Han will give their wealth to Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao and Liu Bei will form an army to continue fighting us , Maybe we will have to face the million-strong army of the Han coalition army in the end!"

"Liu Bei and the others don't have this strength, but the elite clan of the Han Dynasty has the strength to arm an army of millions! So our real enemy is not Liu Bei, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, but the elite clan of the entire Han Dynasty. If we don't knock them down, the people of the world It's impossible to live a good life!"

Fu Yun thought for a while and said: "Since the powerful clan of the great Han is so powerful, why didn't the ruling change the policy? If we want to come and accept the powerful clan of the Great Han, Liu Bei, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, without the support of the powerful clan, they can't be our opponents at all. , so that we can unify the world as soon as possible!"

Huang Long said angrily: "Short-sighted, pedantic views, the ruling party has already said that, although the power of the elite clan is powerful, it is nothing compared to the people in the world. Since we have the power of the people in the world, why should we let it go?" The nobles of the Han Dynasty! Think about what they did to the people of the Han Dynasty, and you will know that they cannot be forgiven.

If we easily let go of the powerful nobles of the big man like this, the great virtuous and good teachers will be in vain. My Yellow Turban Army and the millions of believers who followed our Yellow Turban Army will all die in vain. What is the use of such a dominance of the world? He is still a lord, and the people are still poor. Isn't this just another big man!
Why don't you be the emperor when you are in power? Even if you don't want us to do it, you will become a big man!Now that ruling even the world can give up, why should we let the nobles of the big Han like to be lords, let them be buried with the emperor of the big Han!And we just want to help the powerful clans who are in power and wipe out the big Han together! "

On the fourth watch, Huanglong woke up all the soldiers again, and then the 5 army simply ate a little dry food, and continued on the road despite the starlight that had not yet disappeared!
The air in Yanzhou was a little dry in the early morning, and the battlefield was bright red. This was left over from the two battles. The two sides tacitly cleaned up the battlefield and brought the wounded and corpses back to their camps. In the breeze, the smell of blood and blood made the soldiers on both sides shudder, because they knew that this might be the last trace they left in this world!

The horse that Duan Peng was sitting on became restless due to the tense atmosphere on the battlefield, and the horse of the Dagan Army was neighing constantly!In the middle of the night yesterday, news came from Huanglong that his army would arrive at the battlefield at noon, I hope he can cooperate well!
And Duan Peng was finally relieved when he got the news. With Huanglong joining, their strength is twice that of Lu Bu, and Huanglong's army still has a lot of gunpowder. But all the thunder cannons were brought, and Huanglong also brought all the cannons of more than [-] catties. With these cannons, Duan Peng didn't worry that he wouldn't be able to blast the tortoise shells of the Han army.Now what he thinks is how to wipe out Lu Bu's army!
On the opposite side, Lu Bu brought the Han army. The drums of the Han army were beating and the flags were flying. After two battles, the fear of the Han army soldiers disappeared and became more confident.The horns of the two sides came and went, and the drums of both sides became more and more intense, trying to overwhelm each other. The atmosphere of the entire battlefield was extremely fierce, and the Ganhan battle was imminent.

　Many readers always say that the big man can’t afford to support an army of 80, but 400 years ago, the total strength of the Qin and Chu battles exceeded one million. In the earlier battle of Changping, the strength of both sides was also at the level of one million, and they fought for three years. Well, the world war is nothing more than that, as long as all the resources are allocated to the war, the feudal era can also wage a general war.As for the protagonist's attitude towards the nobles, the nobles of the big man will fight Lei Gong to the end even if they are sellers, so Lei Gong's enemy is the nobles.
