With the support of Liu Bei, Zhao Xu and others carried out a comprehensive transformation of Linzi, not to mention politics and law, Zhao Xu was only responsible for proposing, and how to implement it was handed over to Fa Zheng and other ordinary civil officials. As for the management of the army, Liu Bei almost handed over full power to Zhao Xu, Guan Yu and others.

"Big brother! We now have more than 5,000 veterans in the army, more than 5,000 former Yellow Turban Army, and now we have recruited thousands of recruits, plus the original army in Linzi, a total of more than 20,000 people. Zhao Yun asked Zhao Xu.

"yes, it's a real headache to train in the army now! Boxiong, you are resourceful and have a good plan. Guan Yu also said. Although it is said that Guan Yu once sat in Jingzhou alone in the Three Kingdoms and mastered one-third of the soldiers and horses of Shu, but now after all, he is inexperienced, because of the arrival of Zhao Xu, he only needed to command one or two thousand soldiers and horses, but now it has suddenly increased several times, not to mention that there are many new soldiers, and the surrender of troops is indeed enough to give Guan Yu a headache.

Zhao Xu was about to speak, when suddenly a small soldier from outside the barracks came to report, "Generals, the lord is here." ”

Depend on! This Liu Bei is also really, if he doesn't come early or late, he just comes when I want to speak, I don't know if it's rude to interrupt others? Helpless, Zhao Xu could only go out with everyone to greet him, and before he reached the door of the tent, Liu Bei came in, almost colliding with Guan Yu, and Guan Yu stopped at the stop, otherwise with Guan Yu's nine-foot height, Liu Bei just hit Guan Yu's chest, and he had to get a nosebleed.

"Boxiong, Yun Chang! How did the military affairs go after they were put in order"! Liu Bei said.

"Lord, waiting to report to the lord, now we have more than 23,000 soldiers in the army, and now the training is not complete, so that the original veteran can bring two to five recruits and demote soldiers, and the good ones can be promoted, and the bad ones can be demoted to foot soldiers, so that the training can be done twice the work, in addition, the original army ranks and commanders are different, too cumbersome. However, there are new ideas, and I don't know if the lord agrees or not. ”

"Boxiong, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it."

"Zhao Xu is not talented, and intends to comprehensively reform the military system, with fifteen people in the army as a squad and a squad leader; The third shift is a platoon, with 45 people, and a platoon leader; Three platoons are a company, with 135 men, and a company commander; The third company is a battalion, with four hundred and five men, and a battalion commander; The three battalions are one regiment, with 1,215 men and a regimental commander; The three regiments are one brigade, with 3,645 men and one brigade commander; The three brigades are one division, with 10,935 men and one division commander: the three divisions are one army and one army commander. In addition, there is another political commissar in the troops above the regimental level to manage life and internal affairs, and select educated people to serve as the commanders, with our current strength, only two divisions can be set up, Yun Chang and Yi De can be the commanders of the first and second divisions, and the rest of the brigade commanders and below are veterans with military merits, and the other soldiers are organized by me and Shu Zhi to organize two sharp knife thousand-man teams, which are specially used to assassinate and capture the enemy's main general. ”

Zhao Xu imitated the army management system of later generations and said to Liu Bei.

"What is the Lord's will?"

Where did Liu Bei hear of such a system, and was stunned by Zhao Xu's words, not knowing what to say.

"Lord!"

Zhao Xu shouted again, and finally made Liu Bei react.

"Oh, Boxiong! You are really a genius, this kind of army management is unheard of, such a strict system, neat personnel, and what kind of sharp knife team specializes in assassinating the enemy's main general, Boxiong is really a heavenly man! Liu Bei heard Zhao Xu's professional terms in later generations, and praised it from the bottom of his heart.

Guan Yu and the others also looked at Zhao Xu with admiration, thinking that this kind of system was very reasonable, and even Zhao Yun was surprised, as if he knew him for the first time when he looked at Zhao Xu.

"Since the lord agrees, then now it will be implemented immediately! Yun Chang, Yi De, you immediately go and sort the soldiers, Shu Zhi, Zilong, Dian Wei, Zhou Cang, we will now go and select the soldiers and set up a sharp knife team. ”

"Yes!"

Within a few days, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others were about to finish the soldiers, Guan Yu was the commander of the first division, and Zhang Fei was the commander of the second division.

Chen Zhi took Zhou Cangzi to train a troop, called white-eared soldiers, each holding a white spear, hanging a big knife on his waist, mixed with white armor, a total of more than 1,800 people, at a glance, snow white, mighty and majestic.

With the knowledge of history, Zhao Xu imitated the sharp soldiers of the Qin State and the military soldiers of the Wei State in the Warring States Period, and created a special force of his own. You must know that the sharp soldiers of the Qin State were the strongest troops in the Warring States Period, and there were only more than 1,000 people in the million Qin army, and the physical requirements were extremely high. The warriors are also extremely strong, mixed with iron armor, only stronger than the Roman legions in the West. Zhao Xu took the strengths of the sharps and the warriors, abandoned the shortcomings of the two families, and created his own faction, called the Condor Warrior.

This Condor Warrior, holding a sickle hook spear, hanging a fine iron short sword on his waist, carrying thirty arrows and an iron shield, hanging an iron tire hard bow, mixed with black iron armor on his body, a total of more than 70 pounds of equipment, but also able to march sixty miles in a hurry and immediately put into battle can be selected as the Condor Warrior, to deal with cavalry, can be stabbed, and can hook short horse legs, it is more than enough to deal with infantry, put into a formation, and is invincible. It's just that the materials are difficult to handle, and there are very few people with such a body, so in a few days, only more than 260 people have been selected, and only 180 people can really be used for combat, and the rest are not equipped and cannot form combat effectiveness......

On this day, Zhao Xu, Zhao Yun, and Dian Wei were training their troops, and suddenly a small soldier came to report, "General! There are yellow turban thieves outside, and the city has been surrounded, and the lord has called you to go to the city wall to support. "The Yellow Turban Army is here, it's good to come, Zilong, Dian Wei, take the samurai, let's go!"

When Zhao Xu and others rushed to the city, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei arrived early, only to see Zhang Fei and others as long as they went out of the city to fight, Liu Bei just stopped, and when he saw Zhao Xu coming, Zhang Fei grabbed Zhao Xu and shouted: "Boxiong, you are here, quickly persuade the eldest brother, let me go out of the city to fight!" ”

"No, the Yellow Turban thieves are powerful, there are more than 200,000 people, and we have few soldiers, so we can only hold on, not fight hard." Liu Bei said.

"Lord, I have a plan! Can break the yellow turban thief. ”

"Boxiong, please speak."

"The two sharp knife troops of me and Shu Zhichuang, although they have not been trained for a long time, can still destroy and decay, and now they are just coming in handy."

"Boxiong, there are hundreds of thousands of yellow turbans outside the city, and there are more than 1,000 of you, if you can do it! Don't mess around. ”

"It's okay, lord, the last general is willing to make a military order and lead his subordinates to break the yellow turban thief." Chen Zhi responded.

"Zhao Xu is also willing to make a military order and go out of the city to face the battle."

"Then I would like to make a military order." Zhang Fei shouted, the hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban Army outside this gate couldn't help but make Zhang Fei murderous.

"This, Xiaozhi, do you have any suggestions!"

Fa Zheng didn't answer, thought about it carefully, and after a while, said: "Lord, you can sit in Linzi, Yun Chang can go out of the north gate to break the enemy, Yide can go to the west gate, Shu Zhi can go to the south gate, Boxiong can go out to the east gate to meet the enemy, the yellow scarf is not unified inside, this battle will definitely break the enemy." ”

"That's it, okay, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Xu, Chen Zhi listen to the order, you and others each take a brigade of soldiers and horses out of the city to face the battle! Victory is not allowed to lose. ”

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison.

Zhao Xu deliberately slowed down, and after Guan Yu and the others left, Zhao Xu turned around and said to Liu Bei: "Lord, Zhao Xu doesn't need a brigade of soldiers and horses, as long as he has one hundred and eighty people." ”

Uh, why wait for Guan Yu and them to go? You must know that Guan Erye is extremely arrogant, if he knew that Zhao Xu only led more than 100 people to meet the enemy, maybe he would be angry for a while, and he would go out alone.

"What? Boxiong, the battlefield is not to be taken as a child's play. Liu Bei exclaimed.

"If you don't win, Zhao Xu will come to see you."

"Well, good! That is, Boxiong is such a hero, bring wine, and Liu Bei will see you off. Pour a full glass of hot wine and drink it with Zhao Xu. Zhao Xu drank it all and said, "Zhao Xu will live up to the trust of the lord." ”

Then he took Zhao Yun and Dian Wei down the city wall.

Liu Bei looked at the backs of Zhao Xu and the others, and said with a smile: "Liu Bei is such a god general, I don't know how many lifetimes of blessings he has accumulated!" With Boxiong, hegemony can be achieved! ”
