Chapter 222: Military Conference continued

The use of the Yellow Turbans to defend against the possible attacks of Xianbei Dadan Yu and Lian is no problem in terms of policy, and it is realistic and feasible.

Because these Yellow Turban soldiers surrendered in an organized manner, the grassroots level still retains its inherent order. The vast majority of them were originally refugees who fled together, so most of them were in the same village. When Guo Bin recruited them, in order to facilitate management, he retained the original management order at the grassroots level, thus forming a social class similar to the local village elders in the Central Plains.

When they arrived in the three cities outside the Saiwai, Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang also distributed homesteads to them in this organizational way, so although these Yellow Turban soldiers arrived in a new place, the people around them were still familiar faces. It's just that because they have always been a rebel army, their management has become more and more strict, in addition to retaining the most basic management class, the middle and upper level managers have all been transferred to Yangzhai County, separated from these grassroots soldiers.

In the three cities outside the Saiwai Dynasty, military control was enforced, and the rationing of food and clothing and the distribution of housing for these Yellow Turban soldiers were strictly regulated, and their personal freedom was also restricted. In fact, under the strict household registration system in ancient times, all peasants with some fixed assets were confined to the land, and they did not have the leisure to travel. What poetry and the distance, does not exist.

Therefore, the impact of this militarized management model on the daily life of the Yellow Turban soldiers after surrender is basically negligible. On the contrary, the food rationing system implemented by Guo Bin has really won their support: compared to the Central Plains, where even bark and grass roots cannot fill the stomach, it is really happier to have food to eat, but what about the bitter cold land outside the Saiwai?

In addition to being restricted in their freedom, these Yellow Turban soldiers were required to undergo military training in their leisure time. The content of the training is very simple, just like the boot camp training in later generations, and the most is the practice of queue formation. Don't underestimate this kind of exercise, the reason why it has not been abandoned in later generations when technology has been so advanced and can even rely entirely on remote control to complete the war is because of its incomparable superiority in military discipline training.

When a soldier is accustomed to obeying the orders of his superiors, he will form a very high level of action on the battlefield, and the direct embodiment of this action is the execution of orders. On the battlefield of flesh and blood, fear is an emotion that everyone will have, and when well-trained soldiers hear the clear and powerful instructions of their commanders and follow them, they will avoid excessive stress to a large extent, thus greatly avoiding unnecessary losses caused by operational errors and weakness caused by nervousness and fear.

Therefore, in his letter to Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang, Guo Bin emphasized this militarized management model, and specially asked Chen Zhi to send his right-hand man to preside over the training of the Yellow Turbans. The so-called preparedness, this hard work is now finally used.

Needless to say, in the open land of the grassland, once the Central Plains official army encounters the cavalry of the Saiwai horseback nation who wants to go around with you and fly kites, they will only be hanged and beaten, not to mention that the soldiers in the three cities outside the Saiwai are originally peasants, and their unsightly riding skills are really worrying to see.

However, you have to admit that what the Central Plains official army is best at is urban offensive and defensive warfare. In the cramped and cramped city, there is no room for the horses of the steppe people to gallop. Once the cavalry loses its speed advantage, it will only have to be slaughtered when facing the sophisticated armor and iron blades of the Central Plains official army.

Therefore, when Guo Bin realized that Helian was going to send troops to attack, he was secretly happy in his heart. Since Helian wanted to rely on the advantage of his strength to provoke himself with the siege warfare that the Xianbei cavalry was not good at, he could only hit his head and bleed. The so-called use of one's own strengths and the shortcomings of attacking the enemy, Guo Bin has no reason not to make good use of this opportunity.

This battle is not only in line with Guo Bin's strategic plan for all ethnic groups outside the Saiwai, but also can leave a deep impression in the hearts of the three tribes outside the Saiwai that it is not easy to mess with, and at the same time, it will not cause the same hatred and hatred of the various tribes of the grassland, and even attack in groups. The rest depends on how to fight a good battle, and the current top priority is to mobilize nearly 500,000 Yellow Turban soldiers as soon as possible.

Just as everyone was discussing, a report came from outside that Guo Da was back.

Guo Da is Guo Bin's personal guard, whether it is in Fulong Villa or Yangzhaicheng County, as long as there is an emergency, it is Guo Bin's bedroom, and he can enter directly. It's just that Guo Da is cautious, and he will never become unruly and arrogant because of Guo Bin's attention. Therefore, every time he waits for Guo Bin to answer, he will push the door and enter, and now it is no exception.

When Guo Da came in, Xi Zhicai asked, "How is the situation?" ”

Guo Dadao: "That Qian Man seemed to be running, and as soon as he returned to his residence, he packed his things and prepared to leave." ”

Guo Jia said: "Oh? Did he perceive our intentions? ”

At this time, Zhang Shiping, who came back from outside, said to Guo Bin: "I don't think so. Lord, there is news from the Shicai warehouse, saying that Qianman has changed all the goods brought yesterday and loaded them overnight. When the taxes on the transaction are settled tonight, I think I'm leaving. ”

Su Shuangdao: "Since I have brought the goods, I don't think that Qianman is aware of our intentions, and it seems that the day when Helian will come to attack is not far away." ”

Guo Bin nodded and said, "Yes, in this way, I'm afraid that once it is determined that Qianman is safe, Helian will have to send troops." Immediately, he looked at Zhang Shiping and said: "Find a way to keep him for two more days, and let him leave after two days. ”

Then he said loudly to the outside: "Guo Er! ”

only heard a promise, and Guo Er, who was slightly thin, pushed the door and came in. Guo Bin pointed at Zhang Shiping and said, "You take a few brothers to go with Zhang Shiping, and he will arrange for Xianbei people to guide you and explore the movements of Xianbei Dadan Yu and Lian Wangting." Whether they have the intention of sending troops, and how many soldiers and horses they want to send, have checked for me! ”

Guo Erlang said: "No! ”

Guo Bin patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, go pick a few people first, prepare to prepare, and set off tonight." Then he turned around and waved his hand to Zhang Shiping.

Zhang Shiping bowed his head and promised, and said, "My subordinates will arrange it." Then he retreated with Guo Er.

Guo Bin turned to Su Shuangdao again: "Don't make any changes in the central city, first mobilize the residents of the two satellite cities, enter the preparations before the battle, and be sure to explain our policies to everyone clearly!" ”

Su Shuangying said: "My subordinates can save it." ”

After the two of them were instructed, Guo Bin said: "Zhicai, Guo Jia, Yun Chang, and Yide, follow me out of the city to take a look at the terrain around here." He glanced at Dong Xing'er, who was pouting and dissatisfied, and said busily: "Oh, Xing'er is also here, as well as Wang Yuzhou and Brother Wang, if you are interested, how about we go out of the city together?" ”

Wang Yun didn't see the cowardice of the civil officials at all, glanced at Wang Yue who was eager to try next to him, and laughed: "In this way, then let's start quickly." ”

At that moment, everyone led more than a dozen horsemen together and rushed out of the city.

According to the map drawn by the caravan to and from the Xianbei tribes below, Guo Bin soon found a rather wide valley under the guidance of a guide arranged by Zhang Shiping. The hills in the two places here are not very high, but they are densely covered with a forest, and if it is a cavalry team of more than a dozen people, it is natural that it can easily pass through, but if it is a large cavalry force of tens of thousands of people, it is not known how much time it will take to go from here. Therefore, if Helian passes through here, he must go from the bottom. This is the location that Guo Bin chose to block the company.

At the military meeting, although Guo Bin said that he was full of pride, and he looked like he could take down the more than 30,000 cavalry of Helian with his backhand, but when it was really time to prepare for war, he couldn't be too careful. Therefore, although Guo Bin has already seen this must-pass place for Helian on the map, he still has to come and take a look for himself to rest assured.

Guo Bin never believed in any tricks, he believed that in this world, any small success is not easy to achieve, and war is even more so. The great man of the previous life said it well: "Despise the opponent strategically and value the opponent tactically." ”

The so-called "soldiers, the place of death and life, the way of survival, must not be ignored." "A war is related to the lives of countless soldiers and the happy life of countless families, although Guo Bin's hands have been stained with the blood of many people since he was reborn, he still cannot become an executioner who regards the lives of ordinary soldiers as child's play.

What's more, the number of elite soldiers under his command is not much, except for the 700 parts that are now following him to fight in the south and the north, it is the Yue cavalry battalion of nearly 1,000 people who are still in Yangzhai County, plus the more than 300 soldiers of the special forces trained by Guan Yu for him, Guo Bin's subordinates have experience in war, but there are only 2,000 soldiers in the first war.

As for the real elite, the 1,000 Yue Cavalry Battalion is just a recruit who has fought a tailwind battle, or the 700 parts that he is now leading, and after dozens of battles over the past year, it has slowly grown up. Therefore, each of these soldiers is Guo Bin's foundation and is a priceless treasure.

Moreover, although Guo Bin is young, he is originally extremely cautious, and since the crossing, most of the decisions have been made after being optimistic. Although Guo Bin did not reject intrigue and trickery, he never thought that he could rely on trickery and trickery to lead his subordinates to the end in the troubled times when the people were struggling and the situation was complicated. Any trickery is the most ridiculous joke in the face of absolute strength, just like a child playing with an adult, ignorant and ridiculous.
