Ji Han Liu Zhang

Chapter 43: Expedition to Bajun
'Harmful. '

Liu Zhang sighed. He thought about the candidates for the expedition to Bajun, and finally decided to lead the troops himself.

Now he is on his way to Berkshire.

If someone else is dispatched, he will stay in Chengdu to command, and it will take several days to send messages back and forth. Some things are difficult to control in real time.

In addition, he has some ideas about the situation in Bajun, as well as some follow-up measures that need to be implemented after quelling the rebellion. If it is left to others to implement, I am afraid that it will not be as good as he wants.

The most important thing is that as a monarch in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, if he did not lead troops, did not go to war, and did not go through the smoke of war, he could not be considered a qualified monarch.

The three bosses who established the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu.

Cao Cao started his career in Yanzhou, destroyed Lu Bu, defeated Yuan and Yuan, surrendered Liu Cong, killed Han Sui, defeated Ma Chao, fought all over the world, and spent most of his life squatting in the trenches.

Not to mention Liu Bei, who was scolded by Peng Yi as a veteran scoundrel. He had also been fighting for a lifetime and had not yet been able to enjoy it. Unlike Cao Cao who built a Tongque Bridge and was happy for at least two days.

In order to avenge Guan Yu, Liu Bei died of illness after the Battle of Yiling, which can be regarded as a death in battle.

'Peng Yi. Thinking of Liu Bei, Liu Zhang remembered that Peng Yi, a Shu figure, had his head shaved and was demoted to a disciple for slandering Liu Zhang in history.

Peng Yi was a man with military talents. When Liu Bei entered Sichuan, Peng Yi joined Liu Bei. Liu Bei asked Peng Yi many times to convey military orders and guide the generals in their actions. The results were in line with Liu Bei's wishes.

Liu Zhang stroked his chin. Peng Yi was a talented person, but he had a somewhat arrogant temper. He would have to look for him later and include him in his shogunate, and join the army to give him advice.

Putting aside Peng Yi, Liu Zhang thought of Sun Quan, the boss of Wu State. Sun Quan was an exception. He rarely led troops. However, he had the idea of ​​​​leading troops himself in the early stage, but his ability to lead troops was too poor.

Historically, in August of the 20th year of Jian'an, Sun Quan took advantage of Cao Cao's troops in Hanzhong and personally led an army to attack Hefei. Zhang Liao defeated eight hundred thousand soldiers and forced him to carry Zhang Liao into the Martial Temple. At the same time, he left himself with the reputation of Sun Shiwan. .

The Battle of Hefei was so obvious that Sun Quan seldom led troops in person in the later period, and basically relied on the governor to conquer.

Taking into account the common ground among the bosses, Liu Zhang, as the monarch, naturally wanted to lead the troops to conquer Bajun in person, but there was a big problem in leading the troops in person.

He doesn't know how to fight. Not only does he not know how to fight, but his predecessor also has no experience in leading troops on expeditions. In his previous life, he did study some ancient formations and military manuals, but those were all words on paper and no actual operations.

This is a little embarrassing.

However, Liu Zhang was very open-minded. Just like when he first came out of the society in his previous life, when the interviewer asked him how he dared to come to the interview because he didn't know anything, he licked his face and said: "I don't know how, but I can." study. '

The current rebellion in Berkshire is a good opportunity for him to learn how to fight.

Gao Pei, who was heading to Bajun, received a letter saying that he had firmly taken control of Jiangzhou City, the capital of Bajun. At the same time, he sent his lieutenant Deng Xian to lead two thousand troops to guard Baidi and Kuimen.

If nothing unexpected happens, Deng Xian should be able to hold Baidi and Kuimen and prevent Bajun from rebelling eastward and joining forces with Jingzhou.

The current rebels in Bajun are just a group of turtles in a jar, and they can only fight against trapped beasts. Considering that the army assembled by Liu He and several wealthy families is basically a rabble.

According to the information found by Gao Pei, the number of rebels is about 3 to 4000, but the number of truly capable warriors is estimated to be around [-], and the rest are just slaves and Guizhou leaders who gathered together to strengthen their courage.

Taking into account the strength of the rebels, he brought 8000 Dongzhou soldiers, four captains Wu Yi, Gan Ning, Xu Meng, and Xi Su, and 5000 troops under them. To prepare for any eventuality, he also brought Two thousand Qingqiang soldiers, a total of [-] troops, went to conquer.If it were more, it would take more time to prepare for the army to launch. Unlike now, he can lead the army as soon as the news of the rebellion in Bajun reaches Chengdu.

If he carries less, he will not be able to keep it safe as he has no combat experience, and it will be bad if the car overturns.

There are fifteen thousand soldiers who are good at fighting, which is enough to deal with the rabble in Bajun. Liu Zhang happily remembered a famous saying: "Fifteen thousand versus thirty thousand, the advantage is mine." '

He had some understanding of the wars of the classical era in his previous life. The battle between the two sides did not depend on the number of people, but on how many retired soldiers there were in the army, what the armor rate of the soldiers was, whether rewards and punishments were fair, and whether they had enough food and trust.

There is a ready-made example in the third year of Chuping. Millions of Qingzhou Yellow Turban soldiers were attacked by Gongsun Zan and Zang Hong and flowed into Yanzhou. They were defeated by Cao Cao, who was the governor of Dongjun at the time, and taken under his command.

Even if there were millions of people like the Bajun rebels, what would he have to fear?

This time was a good opportunity for him to practice his skills. He would try his skills on Liu He, a rookie, and see if he had any talent for fighting.
-
"Brother, your mysterious armor is not as good-looking as mine."

"Go and go, they are all Te Niang's mysterious armors, and they can be divided into three, six, and nine grades."

Gan Ning stood on the third floor of the building, looking at the two subordinates below who were arguing about the quality of the mysterious armor they were wearing, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

His Ming Gong is very generous and has three hundred sets of precious mysterious armors at one time. He has been living in Ba County for so many years and has more than 1000 brothers under his command. Only 30 of them have armors. Now, 300 of them are wearing armors.

Liu Zhang was so kind, so he asked for a vanguard position and wanted to do something for his father-in-law. During this period, he only took money to become an official without doing any work, which made him feel a little guilty.

He also remembered Ming Gong’s instructions for him to serve as a vanguard. His Ming Gong said that this expedition to Ba County was not about killing, but about combining kindness and power, and showing kindness to Ba County. He asked him to remember that Ba County was his own county and not to act rashly. kill.

Gan Ning kept this instruction in mind.
-
"It's really unlucky that Ba Man took the vanguard position." Xu Meng complained to Xi Su. Gan Ning took the vanguard position, which made him feel a little unhappy.

There was nothing unfair about the attack on Su. He comforted Xu Meng and said: "Captain Gan is a native of Bajun and is familiar with the geography of Bajun. Now that we are conquering Bajun, it is natural for him to be the vanguard. When we get to Bajun, let's work harder and not take the credit." He is inferior to Captain Gan."

After saying this, he reminded: "Ziyu, Duke Ming asked us to get close to the Shu people. Don't use the word 'Baman' in the future."

"I know, I know." Xu Meng waved his hand and said in agreement. When it comes to returning to his hometown in Guanzhong, he still knows what is important and what is important.

When Xisu, a fellow villager, talked about Gan Ning, he would call him a barbarian. But in front of other people, he would call Gan Ning "Gan Xiaowei", so that he would not fall off the tongue of others.

Then he sighed and talked about something: "Speaking of which, that boy Gan Ning is quite capable. Among the thousand soldiers transferred to his account, there was a man named Zhao Liu who was familiar with me. Before entering, you told me that you must let Gan Ning see the style of the Guanzhong people and know how powerful we Guanzhong people are."

"As a result, I met Zhao Liu a few days ago. When I talked about Gan Ning, that boy called him Captain Gan. He was closer than calling him father and mother. I really don't know what kind of ecstasy soup Gan Ning gave him."

"Then I'm not as good as Lieutenant Gan. I'm not familiar with the thousand Shu soldiers who fell into my tent." There are some ways."

"It's not like I am." Xu Meng shook his head. He admired Gan Ning quite a bit about raising soldiers, but it was hard to say it out loud. He and Gan Ning had some differences.
