Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 584: Gan Ning

Seeing that Jia Rong went deep into the mountains to look for the bandits, Zhao Yu hurriedly persuaded him: "Brother, the bandits are all desperate. In the deep mountains, it is difficult for soldiers to take care of them. It is better to send a large group of people into the mountains."

Jia Rong laughed and said, "When did Yu'er become so timid, how can she become a heroine?"

Zhao Yu whispered softly: "Isn't this still for you? You don't appreciate it?"

"Yu'er, being a general is not as simple as you think. It is just a central command. When necessary, you must go to the battlefield in person to set an example for the soldiers under your command. If the general is willing to use his life, it will be the biggest boost to morale. ,Understand?"

Zhao Yu nodded half understanding.

"Forget it, you don't understand what I'm telling you now. When you really become a general in the army with your own efforts and go to school to take military theory classes, you will understand many things that you didn't know before. How to deal with the enemy What to do, basic battlefield command." Jia Rong sighed: "War is not about children's play, it is bloodshed, it is sacrifice, and the Xiliang Army was won by the blood of so many warriors. Without their sacrifices, there would be no war today." Chang'an, now the Xiliang Army."

"As a general, he not only considers how to win, but also considers the losses of the soldiers, just like this time when attacking the bandits' stronghold, how to exchange the smallest losses for the greatest results, a team of thousands of people, entering the deep mountains and old forests , For the army, it is a huge burden, a task that can be completed by a hundred soldiers does not require a team of thousands of people, this is called making the best use of everything." Jia Rong still patiently explained to Zhao Yu.

After entering the mountain, the lone wolf soldiers were like ducks in water, constantly reporting the news ahead, the bandits no matter how secretive they were, how could they escape the lone wolf's repeated searches.

After a while, Jia Rong saw a shoddy cottage on the mountainside, with soldiers on it watching the surroundings vigilantly. [

There are also some capable people among the bandits. This place is built to be easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if you take it with great force, the gain is not worth the loss. The opponents are at best bandits.

"Yu'er, look at the strongholds of these soldiers. If you were a general, how would you attack them?" Jia Rong cast his gaze on Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu pondered for a moment and said, "These are small bandits. If the army rushes up, they will all be caught?"

Looking at Zhao Yu's expression, Jia Rong sighed and brought her to experience the battle. Sure enough, there is a big difference between soldiers who have been on the battlefield and those who have not. When the enemy sees blood, his legs and feet become weak. Can he be called an elite soldier? If he doesn't have three or five lives in his hands, he can't be called a great army.

"Yu'er, if you are a general, you have to think about the soldiers under your command. Isn't their life precious? You see, this cottage is built on the mountainside. Although it is simple, it is easy to defend and difficult to defend." Is it worth it to spend a dozen soldiers to capture such a stronghold?"

Although Zhao Yu has never been on the battlefield, he still understands these things. Hearing this, he shook his head lightly. There is not much food, grass, money and supplies in the village. He was shot down just to let the common people and merchants have a safe way to go. Losing a Soldiers are not worth it.

"What do you think about it now?" Jia Rong asked patiently.

"I don't know." Zhao Yu still shook his head.

Jia Rong looked at Zhang Xiu, who was about to laugh, and his face immediately turned down. He pointed to Zhang Xiu and said, "You take Yu'er to attack the cottage, and you must let her learn something, otherwise you will look good."

Zhang Xiu shrank her neck, and hurriedly agreed. Zhao Yu is Zhao Yun's younger sister. With Zhao Yun's increasing status in the army, Zhao Yu is worthy of attention.

"Miss Yu'er, just follow me." Zhang Xiu said softly.

"Miss Yu'er, on the battlefield, there are only soldiers and generals, don't you understand that, she's the number two of Lone Wolf." Jia Rong said coldly from the side.

Zhang Xiu said inwardly that it was broken, Jia Rong didn't want him to be a good person, who made him a subordinate, he could only obey orders.

From receiving Jia Rong's reprimand to changing his face, it was just a short time before and after." Zhao Yu listened to the order and went to the cottage with the army, not to disturb any bandits, and took extraordinary measures if necessary.

"Promise." Zhao Yu also cupped his fists in the same way. [

"General Zhang, what is an extraordinary means?" After leaving Jia Rong, Zhao Yu asked softly.

"The extreme method is that there will be many emergencies on the battlefield. For example, when the patrolling soldiers in the cottage find you, all you have to do is to prevent them from passing on the information. A dead person will not speak."

Seeing Zhang Xiu's gloomy face, Zhao Yu was a little surprised. Before that, he was only training in the army, and there was still a big difference in personally going to the battlefield to kill people.

Jia Rong led the soldiers back to Chang'an and waited. The bandit's stronghold was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Zhang Xiu would definitely wait until night when the bandits relaxed their vigilance and take a sneak attack.

At noon the next day, Zhao Yuqiao returned to the city with a pale face, instead of returning to the barracks, she went directly to the Zhao Mansion.

"How's Yu'er?" Jia Rong asked.

Zhang Xiu clasped his fists and said, "Just like ordinary soldiers, it's always uncomfortable for a while when facing a dead person to kill with his own hands for the first time."

"Do you think Yu'er will become a qualified general?" Jia Rong asked.

"My lord, it's hard to say. The potential of some generals is discovered slowly in the battle. Not all people are born to be famous generals who can go to the battlefield. They need constant training. Miss Zhao Yu is ice-snow smart, Moreover, she is highly skilled in martial arts, if she can survive, there will be another strong general in the army, and she will be an amazing female general." Zhang Xiu said.

Jia Rong said: "When will you learn to flatter, don't relax with Zhao Yun because of her relationship, generals are very important to the army, you know this better than anyone else."

Zhang Xiu clasped his fists in promise.

"My lord, this is the map of the Jingzhou navy's water village that Zhou Tai ordered someone to pass back. There are also some construction drawings of warships, and one is a building boat." Zhang Xiu handed a stack of papers to Jia Rong. Said.

Jia Rong nodded and said, "Zhou Tai is bold and careful. If it weren't for what happened at the beginning, maybe our army's water army has become a climate and can compete with Jiangdong Army and Jingzhou Army."

When it comes to what happened back then, Zhang Xiu will inevitably think of Zhao Fan, and the person who killed Zhao Fan, Zhang Xiu will never forget him, Ma Ju.

"Don't think too much, death is a kind of relief." Jia Rong said in relief.

"General Zhang Liao has guarded Yumen Pass for many years, let him return to Chang'an, the army needs more generals." Jia Rong said.

Zhang Xiu nodded and said yes, but there was a wave of waves in his heart. Zhang Liao was under the command of the Bingzhou Army at first, but he turned to Dong Zhuo and finally came to the Xiliang Army. His status had a great impact on the morale of the army, so he was dispatched to Yumen Pass. It seemed to be to protect the territory of the Xiliang Army. In fact, there were very few battles at Yumen Pass. It was there to provide horses for the Xiliang Army, but Zhang Liao was also able to endure hardships. A man who works hard without complaint, even Zhang Xiu has to admire him.

"How is it? Is there any news about Gan Ning?" Jia Rong asked. Thinking of the navy, he would inevitably think of the navy general, Jinfan Bandit, how famous. He has made great achievements for Soochow.

"Gan Ning, he continues to be his gangster on the river, with hundreds of men under his command, so impressive." Zhang Xiu said.

"Well, let him come back, the formation of the Xiliang Navy will be this year." Jia Rong said in a low voice.

Under the rule of the Xiliang Army, there are naturally many places near the sea, but in this era, the sea is still somewhat unfamiliar to the common people and businessmen. I don’t know the direction, north, south, west, east, and finally starved to death on the vast sea. Many businessmen tried to cross the vast sea, but they failed, and they didn’t even come back. Therefore, people have a deep respect for the sea in their hearts.

Jia Rong is not the case. He comes from a later generation and knows the importance of the ocean. Even if he cannot go to sea, he can still form a navy in the sea. At this time, Liu Yan from Yizhou and Yuan Shao and Cao Cao from Jizhou are also close to the Xiliang Army. "Cao", Cao "Cao" is a huge monster, and it borders too little with the Xiliang military area. In a short time, Jia Rong didn't want to start a war with him, and the spearhead of the war was directed at Yuan Shao in Jizhou and Liu Yan in Yizhou.

Yizhou's terrain is dangerous, and Liu Yan has been hiding inside and can't come out. He holds a strong army and the people's hearts are loyal, so he is not suitable for attacking for the time being. Yuan Shao in Jizhou is different. The timing of the army's battle, attacking Jizhou in one fell swoop, will deal a fatal blow to Yuan Shao, and at the same time, Xu You and others in Jizhou secretly responded. After such a period of time, Xu You must have developed a lot of his cronies.

And getting the land of Jizhou can make the strength of Xiliang army rise again. Unlike the barren and barren places such as Youzhou and Bingzhou, Jizhou is a well-known grain state with a large population and fertile land. After taking Jizhou, it is equivalent to Having obtained a granary, which can provide sufficient grain, grass and supplies for the Xiliang army's war pace, it would be a waste to put such a place in Yuan Shao's hands.

However, Yuan Shao had 20 soldiers and horses in his hands, and among them the Euphorbia warriors and Xiandeng dead warriors were all very famous. If too many troops were lost to capture Jizhou, it would be meaningless.

After the water army is formed, it will be easier to attack Jizhou. It will attract Yuan Jun's attention with its superior force from the front, while the water army will attack from the rear and lose its base camp. Yuan Jun will be defeated.

The establishment of the naval army is another bottom hole, not only for Jizhou but also for the future unification of the world. With more power in hand, the ambition will increase day by day. Even people like Yuan Shu are called emperors, let alone the elite Xi What about the Liang army?
