Chapter 46: One Step Ahead
"In that case, then I'm not welcome, marshal, that's the case, although now our army has killed Zhang Jiao's main army, but it is far from enough to completely quell the purpose of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, so the last general wants to apply to the marshal for a certain number of soldiers and horses to go to all parts of the Han Dynasty to quell this Yellow Turban Rebellion." Lu Rui said to Lu Zhi.
"Oh, you're here to do this! Haha, Xiao Rui, it's really time for you to come, I also happen to have this plan to send you to support various regions, although it is said that it has been pacified here, but it is not possible to withdraw the army immediately, so I have to stay here to deal with some things, and then I will fight to take down the giant deer in one go and recover this area occupied by Zhang Jiao. Lu Zhi said to Lu Rui.
"Thank you marshal, I don't know ...... soldiers and horses" When Lu Rui just wanted to ask Lu Zhi how many soldiers and horses he planned to allocate to himself, Lu Zhi had already taken the lead in speaking.
"I have already thought about the soldiers and horses, my 5,000 Janissaries will be handed over to you, and I will allocate you an additional 10,000 horses, 3,000 cavalry, 5,000 foot soldiers, 2,000 archers, all the soldiers are fully equipped, and 10,000 bows and arrows will be handed over to you, this is the soldiers and horses I allocated to you, they will be yours in the future, you can also recruit troops and horses on your own in the process of marching, you have my token, presumably the people of the government will not embarrass you." Lu Zhi said to Lu Rui.
Hearing this, Lu Rui was stunned, and the 10,000 soldiers didn't say anything, but he didn't expect Lu Zhi to be willing to hand over the 5,000 Praetorian Guards to himself, which was equivalent to his pressure on the battlefield! Although it is said that when Lu Zhi handed over the token to himself, it means that everything in the future Lu Zhi will be his own, but he didn't expect to hand over all the hole cards on the battlefield to himself now, so you can imagine how much Lu Zhi cares about himself.
"Marshal, the five thousand forbidden army ......" Lu Rui was about to say something to Lu Zhi, but was interrupted by Lu Zhi again.
I saw Lu Zhi say to Lu Rui: "Don't worry, listen to me, the reason why I handed over the five thousand forbidden troops to you is because there are some things in the army now, due to the sudden attack of Zhang Jiao's demon magic before, most of the materials of our army have been destroyed, and now the grain and grass in the army are in an emergency, and I can't get enough food and grass for a while, so I can only reduce the number of personnel as much as possible now, reduce the material consumption in the army, so that I can extend the combat time and wait for the arrival of the grain transportation team." ”
After a pause, Lu Zhi continued: "And the reason why I chose to hand over the five thousand forbidden army to you is because it is not wrong that these five thousand forbidden army is my trump card army, and the combat effectiveness is absolutely not a problem, but as far as the current situation is concerned, this is also the most useless army at present, although the combat effectiveness of this army is very strong, and the psychological quality is also surprisingly good, it is estimated that even in the face of the demon magic like Zhang Jiao before, there will definitely not be a little timid, I have to say that there are indeed few legions that can do this level." But now Zhang Jiao's main force has almost been annihilated, and the Julu generation will not encounter any particularly serious dangers, so the role that this Praetorian Guard can play with me is not very big, but you are different, your task is to continue to fight in all directions, although now Zhang Jiao's main army has been annihilated by us, but there are still millions of Yellow Turban thieves doing mischief in my Han River, so you need this army more than me, This army can only play its due value on the brutal battlefield, so I will hand over this army to you. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Zhi couldn't help but sigh and said: "Although this horn is just a white coat, it can be said that he doesn't know anything about marching and fighting, so now the Yellow Turban thieves are almost all fighting on their own, and they don't have any contact with each other, which also gives us the opportunity to break them one by one, but everything has advantages and disadvantages, although Zhang Jiao's doing this has reduced the situation of our army being exposed to the enemy on its back, but it also makes these Yellow Turban thieves not as fragile as imagined." In other words, although Zhang Jiao said that he fell here, but the Yellow Turban thieves in other areas have their own leaders, as long as their leaders do not fall, then the local Yellow Turban forces will never surrender, in other words, the leaders of the Yellow Turban Thieves we need to face are not just Zhang Jiao, which also caused a lot of obstacles for us to quell the Yellow Turban Rebellion. So this army is even more useful for you. ”
"I understand the marshal, don't worry! I'm going to bring this team to the best of its ability." "But how many reasons does Lu Zhi have, handing over such an elite team to himself at this time is a great favor to himself, although Lu Rui is not a good person, no, it should be said that he can become a hero, an emperor's characters are not necessarily some good people, an excellent ruler can never be called a good person, and a good person is absolutely impossible to achieve that level. But Lu Rui will definitely not be an ungrateful person, for his own kind person, Lu Rui will definitely keep him in his heart for the rest of his life, and if he has the opportunity in the future, he must repay the other party's kindness to him.
"Well, that's all I can give you, as for the food and grass, you can only rely on yourself to figure out a way, although our army's materials have not yet reached the point of serious shortage, there is not much left, so I can't help you in terms of food and grass, this needs to be solved by yourself. This may be a bit difficult for you, but now it's up to you to solve it. Lu Zhi said to Lu Rui.
"Don't worry, Marshal, just leave the problem of grain and grass to me to solve by myself." Hearing this, Lu Rui didn't take it too seriously, the price of food in the system store was not expensive, even a hundred catties of beef could be obtained with just a little summon point, and now Lu Rui still has 9 hatred points left from Deng Yuanjue before, and the food exchanged is enough for 15,000 people to have food for about two months, and it is the kind of meat that has meat at every turn, compared to the problem of soldiers and horses, the problem of grain and grass is really not a problem for Lu Rui, Just wait a while and go out and find a random reason to exchange the food and bring it over.
"Well, if it's nothing, you can hurry up and prepare! I'll call them out later, and do what you're supposed to do! Lu Zhi waved his hand at Lu Rui and said.
After Lu Rui walked out, he first called Wang Yu and said to Wang Yu: "Wang Yu, you call a few people and a few cars to gather at the foot of the mountain on that side, the marshal told me that there is an unknown granary there, and I have investigated the granary that does not belong to any of the surrounding villages, I think it should be a secret granary set up by Zhang Jiao before, just to prevent emergencies, the materials in it are enough for us to consume for these two months, I will go over and wait for you first, and you will come over quickly after you call the master." ”
"Okay lord, I'll arrange it." Hearing this, Wang Yu nodded, said to Lu Rui and left.
And Lu Rui naturally didn't delay much, and directly rode on the sweaty BMW given to him by Lu Zhi and rushed over first, Wang Yu took the team to transport the supplies over It will take a while, this time is enough for Lu Rui to prepare the military supplies needed in the next two months.
Everything went well, after Lu Rui arrived there, he searched around and finally found a cave, and exchanged the remaining 9 hatred points for the military supplies needed for the next two months, not only food, but also some tents, mattresses or something, these things are not very expensive, compared to the last human head, these things are much cheaper.
Then Wang Yu brought the men and horses over to transport these materials back, just like that, the problem of marching and fighting was solved, and then, Lu Rui found everyone again, and said to everyone: "Everyone, the next preparations will be handed over to you, I plan to rush to the county by county to see how the current situation is, by the way, I also want to see if there are any talents worth using in the county, you don't have to deliberately speed up the march, you must know that if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, I don't have to speed up the march because I am worried about my safety, this is definitely not a good thing, and there are still wounded people like Yuanqing and Hua Rong in the team, so don't act recklessly, don't worry! If I want to leave, those guys won't be able to keep me. ”
Hearing this, everyone was stunned, Qin Qiong was about to speak, but was stopped by Lu Rui, only to see Lu Rui say to Qin Qiong: "Shubao, the task of commanding the army during my absence will be handed over to you, and the ability you have shown in the past few days can be said to be the most outstanding among those of us, so I am more relieved to hand over the task of commanding the troops and horses to you, I believe that you will definitely be able to take the team handed over to me by the marshal when I am away, right?" ”
After hearing the task assigned by Lu Rui, Qin Qiong, who originally wanted to go to the county with Lu Rui, suddenly stopped his thoughts, because he knew that Lu Rui gave this task to himself so that he could lead the soldiers and horses to fight a beautiful battle, since Lu Rui was relieved to hand over the figure of commanding the soldiers and horses to himself, he absolutely believed that he would be able to do a good job, in this case, Qin Qiong must not be able to live up to Lu Rui's trust, just like Lu Rui will not live up to Lu Zhi.
