Chapter 362 Training the Qin Army
  Compared with all the systems under Liu Hua's command, it took five years at most to establish the legacy left by Liu Bang. For example, the system of the Fire and Dawn Pledge was established by Liu Hua himself in less than two years.

Compared with the Qin Dynasty inherited to the present, the Qin army commanded by Yang Su, Wang Li and others is a complete military system.

There are Qin heavy armors that serve as barriers, Qin side cavalry that cover up and pursue the enemy, Qin chariots that break formations, Qin archers that attack in large numbers, and Qin Ruishi who are the backbone of the army. It can be described as quite complete.

As for the Qin crossbowmen, because of the Qin army's excellent crossbow technology, they serve as an auxiliary war department, rather than the core structure of the main force.

To a certain extent, these five cores form the core structure of a legion. As long as this kind of legion is equipped with a qualified commander, basically even if it encounters a figure of the Four Saints level, as long as you don't send it away, it will be fine. Can fight for several rounds.

And Liu Hua took the Dawn Oath Legion to respond. Even the high-precision arrows of the Gale Battalion may not be superior to the Qin Crossbowmen. The glorious barrier of the Panshi Battalion may not be as reliable as the heavy bronze armor of Qin Heavy Armor. The Changlin Army is even breaking the formation. Or assist in falling from both ends...

Strictly speaking, the Dawn Oath Legion's ability to stand here and defeat the well-established Qin Army relies more on its own firm will and the presence of Liu Hua, especially the key to once again crushing the will of the Qin Empire.

The fact that he could win against Yang Su was really due to the role of the Red Army's military soul field in the battle of the large army, as well as Han Xin and Huo Qubing's absolute suppression of Yang Su personally, rather than the excellent configuration of the Dawn Oath Army itself.

The most complete system under his command is not the Oath of Dawn, but a high imitation of the five schools of the Northern Army commanded by Zhou Yafu. The Fire Armor Army serves as a barrier, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry pursues and breaks the formation, the Changshui Battalion is responsible for clearing troops, and the shooters for targeted strikes Sheng camp, and Xiliu camp, which is responsible for the organization.

However, neither the Changshui Camp nor the Shesheng Camp are perfect, nor can they be trained in a short time. Therefore, the training of Qin Archers and Qin Crossbowmen who can be established in Da Qin will naturally be put on the agenda and can also be used as substitutes.

As for Qin heavy armor, Qin side cavalry and Qin chariots, they are not easy to train. Similarly, Liu Hua has legions that transcend the three arms, so there is no need to include them in the scope of training.

But Qin archers and Qin crossbowmen are different. Their main problem is not so much the level of training, but the situation of material reserves such as arrows.

As long as you select soldiers who can draw the bow and have sufficient quality, with an unlimited supply of arrows, you should be able to quickly create a group of Qin archers and Qin crossbowmen, and Liu Hua's position for them is to clean up the miscellaneous soldiers and the bows and arrows on the opposite side. hand!

Again, Liu Hua is not afraid of Xiang Jian or the [-] miscellaneous soldiers, but he is afraid of the real elites under Xiang Ceyu, Yuan Shao, and Zhu Hai.

If Xiang Ceyu led all the elites of the coalition forces and acted recklessly to contain his main force, then the morale of the miscellaneous troops under the coalition forces of the princes would become really reckless and they wanted to beat the master to death with random punches, then he would not be able to deal with it. Very headache.

So I need to specifically locate the Qin archers who clean up the miscellaneous soldiers to deal with this situation!

However, Liu Hua decisively recruited Li Jing and Zhao Bi. After all, among the Qin generals who had surrendered, Li Jing was the most capable and the most worthy of winning over. As for the Great Qin clan that Zhao Bi was the first to accept, he naturally had some uses.

"I've met the king!" the two said after seeing Liu Hua.

"You're here just in time. I need you to train a new group of Qin archers and Qin crossbowmen!" Liu Hua said straight to the point, "We don't expect accurate aiming. As long as the distance is moderate and the arrows fired are of adequate strength, they can kill ordinary people." Soldiers at the rank of regular soldiers are enough."

Zhao Bi and Li Jing looked at each other and felt that this was a signal that Liu Hua was accepting Qin's surrender.

No matter what, since Liu Hua has handed over the olive branch, he naturally cannot say that he can't.

Zhao Ben said decisively: "General Li Jing is familiar with military regulations and believes he can complete the mission!"

"Before Xiang Jian enters Hanguguan, is there any problem in training this army?" Liu Hua looked at Li Jing and said, of course Liu Hua knew that this little thing was not a problem at all to Li Jing. With Li Jing With his ability, Liu Hua would not be surprised even if he created a new archer army that was not inferior to Qin's archers.

Li Jingying said: "I hope the general will prepare [-] arrows for me. I will definitely train an army within a week!"

"Well!" Liu Hua nodded and said, "Then General Li Jing will go down first. I'll see the results in a week!" Liu Hua had a hunch that Li Jing would give him a surprise.

Li Jing then stepped back. Liu Hua looked at Zhao Ben and said, "Have you visited Wang Li recently?"

"How dare you go to investigate privately!" Zhao Ben lowered his head decisively and said cautiously.

"Go and see Wang Li and see if you can persuade him to surrender. I want to rebuild the military system of the Qin State. If Wang Li helps me, I believe I can build it quickly!" Liu Hua said with a bit of a sigh, but he was indeed quite serious. said.

"My subordinates take orders!" When Zhao Ben heard this, he also planned to talk to Wang Li in the cell.

The reason Liu Hua asked Zhao Ben to go was because even Zhao Ben, the current representative of the clan, had surrendered. It was only natural for Wang Li to surrender. Of course, even if he failed, at least he still had room for maneuver.

A few days later, Zhang Liang sent someone to find Liu Hua and said that Gongsun Zan had come from Julu and delivered a letter from Xun Xi.

Liu Hua naturally went to the meeting hall. When he got inside, he saw Gongsun Zan in military uniform standing up to greet Liu Hua.

However, judging from his travel-worn appearance, it was obvious that he had come to deliver the letter as soon as he arrived in Xianyang.

"I have met the king!" Gongsun Zan also saluted to show respect when he saw Liu Hua.

"Sit down and talk slowly, and someone will bring you a bowl of hot soup to warm Zan up!" Liu Hua said, "Why did you come here in person?"

Gongsun Zan felt warm in his heart, and sat down following Liu Hua's wishes, and then said: "Ling Yin, this is the letter that Governor Zhang asked me to bring to Ling Yin. Because the matter is important and the letter is safe, I need to go there in person. .”

Liu Hua couldn't help but fell silent after taking the letter and reading it.

Liu Hua clearly knew the political risks involved in Xun Xi's decisive decision to stop the migration into Guanzhong.

But Xun Xiyi chose to do this, which shows that at least Xun Xi's judgment is that the risks far outweigh the benefits.

It was precisely because of the importance of this letter that Gongsun Zan led the fastest cavalry in the world to deliver it in person.

Otherwise, if this letter is intercepted, we don’t know how it will be used by the coalition of princes.

Liu Hua took a deep breath and said to Gongsun Zan, "Gongsun Zan, it seems that you have to work hard. You will bring a copy of my reply back tomorrow and tell Xun Xi that you must believe in Zhang Han's ability to lead troops.

As long as it is confirmed that Xiang Ceyu has entered Guanzhong, then I can move everyone who can be moved in Jizhou, especially the Qin people. "

After hearing this, Gongsun Zan said nothing more and just bowed solemnly to Liu Hua.

Liu Hua patiently handled various affairs in Xianyang until Xiang Jian led his army across the Yellow River and continued to advance towards Hangu.
