Great Military Division

Chapter 175 Yuan Shu is stunned: Why did you come at me?

After all the princes got out of the big tent, Liu Bian breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to look at Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, are things ready?"

Xun Yu bowed his head and said with great certainty: "Your Highness, don't worry, I have already counted the items, and all the things are ready, and the generals have received them and distributed them to the soldiers. There will be no delay in setting up the formation tomorrow."

"Ah."

Liu Bian nodded in satisfaction: "That's very good."

Actually.

The Military Division Alliance had already expected that Yuan Shu would not let it go.

Therefore, from the day of the first battle, when the Liang County cavalry did not storm the Allied rear, they began to prepare for the strategy of replacing the defenders.

More importantly.

This is not only a strategy, but also a bait for Xu Rong to take the bait, and it is the key to conquering Guangcheng Pass.

How could Liu Bian not know about Yuan Shu sending people to learn the formation technique.

He just opened one eye and closed one eye.

After all, Xu Rong acted too cautiously, if it really went on like this, it would be of no benefit to Liu Bian either.

It is an extremely important step for Liu Bian's overall situation for Yuan Shu to learn the formation method early.

Everything is ready, just need to change defense.

Liu Bian's hanging heart finally let go: "Since there's nothing else to do, Wen Ruo, you should also go to rest."

Xun Yu bowed and said softly, "Your Highness, there is still a small matter that I need to report to you."

"Wen Ruodan's words are fine."

"Received the information from Yuyuanguan in the evening, Wentai has won a big victory, and Luoyang's gate has been opened."

"Ah."

This matter was expected by Liu Bian: "According to the time calculation, it should be taken down. How about the casualties? Is it serious or not? Do we need to send more reinforcements?"

Xun Yu reported truthfully: "More than [-] people died in the battle, more than [-] people were slightly or seriously injured, and almost half of them were injured in the battle, as many as [-] people. Moreover, the grain and grass fell into the river. Kong Yuzhou urgently needed grain and grass."

"As for the reinforcements, I have already communicated with Li Min, the governor of Yingchuan County. He will send people to follow up as soon as possible to assist Wentai in guarding Zhiyuan Pass in case of accidents."

Liu Bian nodded slowly: "Very good."

"Oh, right."

Xun Yu hurriedly took out a kit from his bosom, which contained Sun Jian's battle report: "This is the battle report submitted by Sun Jian. It contains his detailed description of the battle process. Please read it, Your Highness."

"it is good!"

Liu Bian took the kit, took out the silk book, and opened it to browse.

At the same time, the voice of the Military Division Alliance sounded: "Master Bian, although Sun Jian is a tough guy, he still has a certain amount of leadership. This can be seen from the handling of the capsized merchant ship."

"Furthermore, it only took the opponent two hours to take down a city gate with a thousand soldiers. This level is not something that any strong general can have."

"."

Liu Bian was naturally aware of Sun Jian's strength.

but
Sun Jian finally mentioned the disposal of the loot, which made Liu Bian slightly frown: "Teacher, Sun Jian's handling of the loot without authorization is out of overall consideration, but it also violates military discipline."

"this matter"

Liu Bian was a little unsure what to do.

The Military Division Alliance replied: "Master Bian, what the experts mean is that they should turn a blind eye to this matter and give the front-line generals a certain degree of power and freedom, otherwise it will become more and more difficult to lead the team in the future."

Liu Bian was curious, and tentatively said: "But in case the other generals follow suit and deal with the spoils privately whenever they encounter something, won't it be more difficult to lead the team in the future?"

"so."

The military division alliance emphasized: "This matter is not a test of Sun Jian, but of your handling method, Master Bian. How can it not damage the authority of military discipline and ensure that Sun Jian's enthusiasm for commanding will not be dampened."

"This is really difficult~~"

Liu Bian frowned and pondered for a moment.

Although he has been studying with experts for more than half a year, most of them are historical knowledge, and rarely involve the power of emperors, let alone the art of controlling people.

For this situation, Liu Bian really has no good solution: "I also ask the experts to give me some advice."

The voice of the Military Division Alliance immediately sounded: "It's very simple! Master Bian just needs to make Sun Jian's personal decision into your decision, and at the same time write another letter to Sun Jian, telling him that things are doing well, and emphasizing military discipline between the lines." importance."

"Although Sun Jian is a tough guy, he's still an old soldier after all. He won't fail to understand Master Bian's protection of him and his warning for violating discipline without authorization. That's enough."

hey~~
Liu Bian's eyes brightened.

Experts deserve to be experts.

This is indeed a best-of-both-worlds approach.

Seeing Liu Bian paused for too long, Xun Yu tentatively asked, "Your Highness, what is this?"

Only then did Liu Bian come back to his senses, and said softly: "Wentai is worthy of being a fierce tiger in the east of the Yangtze River, this battle is enough to show that it can't be done."

"Yes."

Xun Yu nodded affirmatively, and then changed the topic: "However, it is against military discipline that Wentai handles the spoils privately. I wonder how His Highness plans to deal with it?"

Liu Bian naturally already had an answer: "How about this, Wen Ruo, you quickly draw up a military order, and at the same time add some extra rewards, and treat this order as your own."

"This"

Xun Yu's voice was a little drawn out.

He didn't question Liu Bian directly, but reminded insinuatingly: "It's great that His Highness loves Wentai deeply, but military discipline is also very important."

"Ah."

Liu Bian nodded and said softly: "Gu understands what Wen Ruo means! Don't worry, Gu will personally write a letter to Wentai, emphasizing the importance of military discipline. Wentai was born in the army, so he must understand Gu's deep meaning."

The corners of Xun Yu's lips raised slightly, and he bowed: "Your Highness is wise."

Liu Bian waved his hand: "Okay, let's go to rest."

Xun Yu agreed.

Immediately.

Bow down and leave the tent.

The next day, early morning.

The rooster announces the dawn, and the sky is full of dawn.

Guangchengguan.

The flags are flying, and the soldiers are dense.

Soldiers gathered at the head of the city, carrying equipment, in an endless stream.

Xu Rong stared at the brand-new lineup outside the city, looked at the formation behind it, and felt refreshed: "Haha! I knew that something like an alliance is unreliable, otherwise how could the Six Nations be defeated by Qiang Qin."

"only"

Despite the excitement, Xu Rong still remained calm enough: "The opponent moved the formation back by more than ten feet. I really don't know what their intentions are. Is there any fraud in this?"

"General~~"

The infantry captain next to him said softly: "Are you worrying too much? The opponent is forced to attack the city. Moving this formation back ten feet can increase the strategic depth and at the same time protect the attacking team. This is just human nature.”

"How could I not know that?"

"but."

Xu Rong frowned, and said with a long breath: "The distance is too far to see the formation situation clearly. If there is a slight change in it, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble."

The infantry captain nodded, affirming Xu Rong's thoughts: "The general thinks very far, and the final general is ashamed of himself, but if we don't defeat this thief again, I'm afraid we won't be able to keep Dagu Pass in the rear."

"General, don't forget."

The captain of the infantry reminded Xu Rong: "Yesterday the prime minister sent a message that the Yuanguan Pass has been breached by the bandits. From a strategic point of view, this army must cooperate with the Guangcheng Pass battlefield to attack us back and forth."

"Humph~"

Xu Rong snorted softly: "Although Sun Jian is brave, but General Li Jue has led the Feixiong Army to Yuanyuan Pass, we have no worries about the future, and there is no need to be distracted by it."

"But."

"okay."

Without waiting for the other party to speak, Xu Rong interrupted directly: "I know what you mean? Isn't it because you are afraid of killing all the soldiers under your command? Don't worry, even if you change teams, you may not be able to win Guangcheng Pass."

The infantry captain was embarrassed: "It's true that you can't hide anything from the general."

Xu Rong said disdainfully: "You have been with me for seven years, how can you hide what's on your mind from me?"

"Well, the last general really meant that. My infantry battalion has suffered heavy losses these days. If it continues to be consumed like this, I'm afraid there won't be many soldiers left."

"General!"

The infantry lieutenant clasped his hands together and said, "Opportunities come once in a thousand years. Don't lose the big because of small things."

Xu Rong was angry: "It's not up to you to intervene in how this general behaves! You just need to do your job well. Even if there is only one person left in the whole battalion, you have to be firmly nailed to the city."

The infantry captain had no choice but to nod: "No."

of course.

Although Xu Rong is so tough.

But it's by no means a person who doesn't eat oil and salt, and can't listen to advice.

In fact, he had long been aware of the infantry captain's proposal and fully considered it.

It's just that as a commander in chief, it's really annoying to be persuaded by subordinates in such a way.

Can't tell the difference between big and small kings, can it still work?

cautious.

It is Xu Rong's greatest experience after being a general for many years.

Regardless of the opponent or the situation, he will carefully consider the three-pointer.

It is true that at this moment, King Hongnong moved his formation back by ten feet, and the strategic depth has indeed increased, but at the same time, the distance is too far, and there is bound to be a possibility of hidden motives.

Xu Rong didn't dare to make up his mind easily, so he could only look around and look for clues.

I do not know how long it has been.

The formation of soldiers and horses outside the city is over.

From the appearance alone, there is indeed not much difference.

Moreover, the other party's soldiers and horses at key positions also seemed to have not changed, but some less important places were handed over to Yuan Shu and others' soldiers and horses to garrison.

huh~~~
Xu Rong heaved a sigh of relief.

The more cautious the other party is, the less tricky it proves.

Xu Rong waved his hand: "Where is Yang Li?"

Yang Li hurriedly cupped his hands: "The end is here."

"Quickly select 200 elite soldiers from the battalion to form a raiding team. Once the cavalry outside the city launches an attack, you will immediately break out of the city gate and cooperate with the inside and outside to completely confuse the opponent!"

"General, don't worry, we promise to complete the task."

"Go quickly."

"promise."

******
Customs.

Liu Bian reined in his horse and stood, staring at Xu Rong who was looking out over the city, waiting for news.

Not long after, Xun Yu came from behind and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, Your Highness, the tripwires, kicking rings, cutting diameters, spike boards, and caltrops we prepared are all properly arranged."

huh~~~
Liu Bian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Afraid of being spotted by Xu Rong, the military division alliance decided to push back the formation by ten feet.

You must know that the infantry-vehicle coordination formation that plays a protective role is originally quite a long distance from the rear army.

Now it has grown ten feet longer. Although there are good reasons on the surface, if it is investigated in detail, it may also arouse suspicion, especially the opponent's general is Xu Rong.

but
Liu Bian has been observing the other party.

Xu Rong stared at the formation outside the city from the top of the city, and did not move in the slightest, which proved that the possibility of him seeing through the expert's strategy was almost equal to zero.

Liu Bian was relieved, and then asked again: "Yuan Shu, Xu Wei and others, are there any abnormalities?"

Xun Yu shook his head: "Don't worry, Your Highness, there is nothing abnormal for now!"

"How about the cavalry in Liang County?"

"Already set off, about three miles away from our army formation."

"very good."

Liu Bian nodded: "The fish is finally going to bite the hook."

Xun Yu hummed: "That's right! The only thing left is His Highness's order."

Liu Bian smiled lightly and waved his hands: "Attack!"

Boom!Boom!Boom!
The golden drum shook the sky, like spring thunder rolling, shocking people's hearts.

"Kill~~~"

In an instant, the sound of shouting and killing exploded, like a thunderclap on the ground.

But I saw that the huge army of soldiers and horses rushed towards the city of Guangchengguan like a tide.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Arrows from both sides are on the top of the city, intertwined into a net.

But it can't hinder Liu Bian's determination to attack Guangcheng by force.

All the soldiers carried their weapons and charged forward like wild wolves, howling, as if they didn't care about the arrows above their heads.

Zhang Liao personally directed the battle, and from the very beginning, he tried his best to fill in all the details, so as to create the illusion for Xu Rong that King Hongnong wanted to break through the city gate in a short time, which prompted him to make a final decision.

Ace shot!

The effect is naturally extraordinary.

Xu Rong really felt the determination of the troops outside the city to attack the city.

At the same time, he was even more worried about how long the infantry in charge of guarding the city could last.

The opponent is definitely not an ordinary soldier, and his military quality is several times stronger than any previous attack.

Xu Rong can conclude that the soldier who is attacking the city must be an elite with actual combat experience, otherwise how can he feel a slight threat.

If it was placed in the first battle, Xu Rong would definitely not be like this.

But at this moment.
The fierce battle for several days not only consumed the opponent, but also consumed the infantry battalion.

It is normal for Xu Rong to be worried about this situation.

The storm lasted for about half an hour.

The infantry lieutenant couldn't bear it any longer, and shouted at the top of his voice: "General, don't you still give the order? If it's a little later, the city will be captured by the opponent!"

Xu Rong took a deep breath, and while staring at the army formation, he said sonorously: "Forget it, success or failure depends on one action, quickly send an order to Feng Yan to raid the rear of the bandits, there must be no mistakes."

Orderly: "No."

woohoo~~~
A dull and rhythmic horn sounded.

Then, there was a strong sound of horseshoes outside the pass, and it struck like thunder.

Yuan Shu, who was guarding the rear army formation, was completely stunned.

He couldn't believe his eyes.

At the end of the distant field of vision, a torrent of smoke and dust rolled towards the rear army.

Gollum~~
Yuan Shu couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

There was a layer of cold sweat on his forehead, his face was bulging with fright, his heart was shaking, and he kept praying in a low voice:

"Don't rush at me!"

"Don't rush at me!"

"."

but see
The cavalry who had been heading straight for Xu Que suddenly changed direction and rushed towards the position he was guarding.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
A wave of arrows suddenly rose into the sky.

Yuan Shu's eyes widened, staring at the arrows coming towards him, and let out a roar:
"Fuck!"

"Block me~~~"
