Lords of War: Sinicized Dragonborn

Chapter 73, Professional Cold Weapon Warfare Teacher
Regarding the question from elder brother Geng Gong, Li Di rolled his eyes and glanced at it. The Huns army who is now two arrows away from Shule City roughly estimated and replied:

"There must be thirty to fifty thousand people, right?"

Li Di's answer was already very conservative, but the elder brother Geng Gong's words told him a completely different answer.

"Wrong, the army of the Huns outside is full of battles, and it is only in the number of ten thousand!"

Hearing the elder brother Geng Gong's correction, Li Di's eyes froze for a moment. How could he be so small? Before he entered Shule City, he clearly heard that Geng He, the captain of the sentinel cavalry, said that there were about ten Huns who surrounded Shule City. million rides.

"Wait, brother, you said that there are less than 1 Huns in the outside world?"

Li Di, who quickly reacted, asked his eldest brother Geng Gong.

"That's right, there are only [-] Huns in the army surrounding Shule City! Brother, do you know why the Huns' army of [-] cavalry has only surrounded Shule City, instead of attacking it?"

Li Di, who has been ugly once, is much more cautious in his answer this time.

"Because the cavalry will lose too much in attacking the city?"

This is the answer Li Di guessed before.

"This is just one of the reasons. The reason why the Xiongnu army besieged and did not attack Shule City is because Shule City is too poor!"

"In the entire Shule City, there are only less than a thousand households. Compared with the loss of troops that the Hun army needs to pay for the material and population gains that can be obtained by conquering Shule City!..."

"This [-]-strong army of the Huns only needs to block the gate of my Shule City, so that we don't let us add chaos to their main force of the Huns in the rear, and ensure that when they plunder and return home from the Central Plains, the road to the outside of the Great Wall is unobstructed, so the Huns The army will besiege and not attack my city of Shule."

Eldest brother Geng Gong turned around and patted Li Di on the shoulder and said:
"Brother, if you only want to be a small village owner in a foreign land, it is enough to practice the martial arts inherited from your family, but if you want more, how about the military strategy on the battlefield? There is so much to learn! These few days, I will follow behind my brother, and learn how to fight hard!"

Li Di thought in his heart that entering the secret realm of trials this time would be just like the one in the romance epic, a small battle in three days, a big battle in five days, in the endless torment of siege and defense , spent half a year.

However, the eldest brother Geng Gong just now told him clearly that, regardless of the Hun army outside, each of them is very vicious.

But the main purpose of the Xiongnu's siege of Shule City is actually to block the gates. They just don't want the big Han border guards in Shule City to make trouble for them and destroy the way home for the Xiongnu army...

Although the offensive and defensive battle in ancient Shule City was beyond Li Di's expectation, the last sentence of elder brother Geng Gong reminded him.

If we say that the biggest gain of Liyueling's job-changing leaders from entering the trial secret realm this time is that they have enough time to speed up their daily Chinese listening and speaking.

The biggest gain for Emperor Li from this trial of the secret realm is that he can have a great general who is really good at ancient cold weapon warfare, the eldest brother Geng Gong!

As a full-time teacher of my military strategy skills, I taught myself some modern times in my previous life, as well as the Federation of Gods in a foreign land, so no one would teach me the professional knowledge of cold weapon warfare.

Thinking about this, Li Di raised his head again and saw that his eldest brother Geng Gong was already at the side, and began to arrange for less than [-] border guards in Shule City to stand guard in turn.

After realizing the greatest benefit that this trial could bring him, Li Di quickly moved behind his elder brother Geng Gong, listening more, watching more and less talking to observe his every move.

Do you still remember how Li Di arranged for Ying Jie and Li Zhi to guard Li Yueling and Longan Pass at night?
Appoint several recruited corps leaders and chiefs, who are respectively responsible for leading some subordinates and taking turns to guard.

However, it wasn't until Emperor Li saw with his own eyes how Geng Gong handled the rotation matters in Shule City that he realized that there were so many particulars in a small rotation at night.

No matter how long the interval is, a rotation is required so that the soldiers on duty at night can maintain their mental concentration for a long time without delaying the work of the next day.

How to plan patrol routes can save time and manpower in the most reasonable way, and can achieve the highest effect of martial law.

When an accident occurs, what method should be used to report it, and what code should be used when checking the identity...

Waiting for many small details that are easy to be overlooked, but when it is really needed, it will have a vital and huge effect.

"Brother, as a powerful monarch, you don't need to be comprehensive and arrange everything in the territory, but this does not mean that you don't need to understand it!"

The eldest brother Geng Gong, who had arranged the job rotation, turned his head to teach Li Diyu earnestly.

As a traveler with modern experience, Li Di quickly realized the key points from the teaching of his eldest brother Geng Gong.

To put it bluntly, it is better to establish the rules first, the rules of Li Rotation, not that after Li Di appointed a special person to be in charge, he can be a hands-off shopkeeper and don't care about anything.

Simply, the recruited shield corporals and chiefs were all professionally trained soldiers, so they didn't cause any trouble to Emperor Li's Liyue leader.

Just like what elder brother Geng Gong said, I don't need to do it myself, but I can't be ignorant of what I arrange for others to do.

He couldn't help showing a bitter expression, and said to his elder brother Geng Gong:

"Brother, the tiger has been educated, it's because I'm too good at what I used to be..."

Faced with Li Diken's attitude of admitting his mistake on the spot, Geng Gong nodded in satisfaction.

"That's right, if you know your mistakes, you can correct them. There's nothing good about it!"

A group of people turned around on the city wall and showed their faces in front of the Huns' army, but they went back the same way.

There was no continuous siege of the city day and night as Emperor Li thought, but only the inexplicable tacit understanding between the Xiongnu and the big Han in the confrontation of forces.

Sworn vows with Geng Gong brought about another change.

It was Li Di and Li Yue who led the group, who were personally arranged by Geng Gong to rest in another place, the exquisite and elegant Sanjin Biwa small courtyard.

And Li Di also reciprocated, and handed over the fifty Liyue soldiers he had brought to his elder brother Geng Gong on the spot.

"Brother, some of these people are native barbarians from foreign lands that I have naturalized. Although they are not very good at speaking, fortunately they are still obedient, and they can do whatever they are asked to do."

"It can be seen that compared with your other generals, it is very easy to distinguish."

Geng Gong looked at Li Di, who was very abrupt, divided into two groups of Liyue leaders, and his words, deeds, demeanor and temperament belonged to soldiers who were completely different from each other.

"Okay, big brother understands, since my younger brother entrusts these family generals to my eldest brother, my eldest brother will definitely not let my younger brother down..."

Geng Gong made a decision after looking at the people in Li Yueling again.

"During this time, younger brother, you will follow me to learn battlefield strategy. My younger brother, these generals of your family, let me, the big man border guards, teach them one-on-one by precept and deed, teach them how to speak, and how to fight on the battlefield. Life-saving experience and skills..."

Nearly [-]% of the Liyue soldiers that Li Di brought over this time were native barbarians who joined the territory through job transfers. Geng Gong's suggestion undoubtedly touched Li Di's heart.

Shule City itself has nearly 300 big Han soldiers, if he can teach these changed leaders one-on-one for a long time.

This undoubtedly added a big boost to Emperor Li's progress in educating the indigenous barbarians in the wild continent and imparting Yanhuang Chinese civilization.

After all, as long as you don't talk about philosophy and the way of heaven, everyone who is an authentic Yanhuang Huaxia dragon descendant of the great man will have a superficial education skill, which can be regarded as a talent engraved in his bones.
