Chapter 804: Not to be underestimated
The Xuzhou army must maintain a transcendent position among the princes, which is an important basis for the stability of Lu Bu's position in Xuzhou, if even the elite of the army can not get more guarantees, it will be more difficult to win against the enemy.
From the materials and money that Lu Bu invested in the officers and soldiers in the army, it can be seen very well what kind of expectations Lu Bu has for the officers and soldiers in the army.
Now that the war is about to break out, it is the time when the officers and men in the army are showing their strength on the battlefield, as long as the enemy can pay a heavy price for this operation, the position of the Xuzhou army among the princes will be more stable in the future.
And on the battlefield there is a certain loss, itself is a normal thing, when the army officers and soldiers are damaged, only need the generals and generals to quickly replenish it, with the Xuzhou army system and the level of the generals in the army, it is not a difficult thing to let the soldiers in the army get promoted as soon as possible.
Originally, it was a difficult thing in the eyes of the princes, but it was different when it came to Lu Bu, and Lu Bu would use practical actions to let more princes understand what kind of punishment they would receive when they led the army to invade Xuzhou.
In the troubled times, the most important thing is their own strength, in this regard, Lu Bu has a clear understanding, it is precisely because of this that Lu Bu will spare no effort to build an elite army, ensure the ordinary training of officers and soldiers in the army, so that they can have greater achievements in the war.
When the officers and men of the army can gallop across the battlefield, the gains that can be brought must be huge, first of all, the increase in the number of cities under the rule, and the enemy does not dare to act rashly, so that the rule can get more time for development.
No matter what the wealthy family is, what they want most is stability under the rule of the monarch, and only in this way can they get more benefits from it and increase the power of the family to a greater extent.
After finding the key to the family, the rest is how to implement it.
Lu Bu's position among the princes relied on the victory of wars one after another, and such victories would give hope to the wealthy families under his rule.
Once Lu Bu won the war, the families who followed Lu Bu would be able to gain more.
This war is related to the fate of Xuzhou, if the situation of the Xuzhou army on the battlefield is not smooth, with the impact of the appearance, it will be what Lu Bu does not want to see, I am afraid that more families under his rule will make other moves at this time.
When a monarch's strength is not enough to bring stability to his rule, the family will look for another way out, and the family will not be able to follow the monarch to fall.
Lu Bu's rule in Xuzhou, wanting to get the support of more families is a difficult thing in itself, because Lu Bu has no so-called politeness when dealing with the wealthy family, if he can get enough benefits from the hands of the wealthy family, Lu Bu will not hesitate at all.
It is precisely for this reason that more families have a respectful attitude when treating Lu Bu, they don't want to get too close to Lu Bu, and at the same time, they will not be too distant, being used by Lu Bu is one thing, when the situation is urgent, they will have other options.
The progress of the war is a great challenge for the princes, and in the face of these challenges, what strategy to adopt is also extremely crucial, and if we do not look at this aspect correctly, there will be more problems in the war.
Lu Bu ruled the land of Xuzhou and Yanzhou, in fact, his own pressure was also very great, he didn't want to experience war at such a time, but the development of things was beyond Lu Bu's control.
"Cavalry is the top priority of our army, if even the cavalry can't gain an advantage, our army will be in a more passive situation when fighting against Yuan Shu in the future." Lu Bu said in a slightly deep voice.
Jia Xu nodded and said, "Yuan Shu has Yang Hong and others planning for it, which should not be underestimated, and Yuan Shu has 5,000 elite cavalry under his tent, and this number of cavalry can play a great role on the battlefield." ”
Lu Budao: "Cavalry battles can not only be solved by a large number, the Xuzhou cavalry, crisscrossing the field, defeating Yuan Shu, will once again prove their strength." ”
"The lord is brave, and the cavalry under his command is good at fighting, and no one can stop him." Jia Xu complimented.
Lu Bu shook his head slightly and said: "In front of Benhou, there is no need to say such words, no matter what, our army is currently at a disadvantage in terms of the number of troops, which will have a great impact on the war with the enemy, the most important thing is to eliminate the influence of the enemy's superiority in the number of troops, so that the enemy understands that it is not enough to have an advantage in troops, the most important thing is to be able to win the war." ”
"Whoa." Jia Xu arched his hand and said: "My lord, the current generals in the army have a lot of expectations for the upcoming war. ”
Lu Bu showed a knowing smile, the generals in the army have such a mentality in the face of war, so that the soldiers under their command can have a better response in the face of war, and the generals are the courage of the soldiers, if even the generals in the army do not have enough confidence in the face of war, how can they expect the soldiers under their command to have a better performance against the enemy.
The Xuzhou Army is extremely strict in training, and it is precisely because of the strict training system that the officers and men in the army will not have more fear when dealing with the war, and even have expectations for the war.
This kind of situation is absolutely rare under the command of other princes, no matter what kind of war, it must be ordinary soldiers who will be damaged in the end, but in the case of the Xuzhou army, this situation has not appeared, ordinary soldiers have a lot of expectations for the war, such a thing is unimaginable.
In fact, after an in-depth understanding of the Xuzhou Army, you will understand that the reason why the officers and soldiers in the army have such a mentality is more because of what kind of rewards they can get after the war.
Officers and men in the army naturally hope to be able to make meritorious contributions to the battlefield, and after having meritorious service, many things can be well solved, otherwise, it is simply impossible to make the officers and men of the army pay more for the war.
The beginning of the war is not a small challenge for the officers and men in the army, and what kind of performance they will have when dealing with the war is also very important.
