Chen Xun, the prisoner of Qintian, had his troubles, but he was less than half of Lu Chenhuan, who was leading the forbidden army on the march. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

After four days of marching, Lu Chenhuan finally led nearly 50,000 forbidden troops and finally came to Dongping Mansion on Shandong Road.

Standing in the endless pool of reeds, Lu Chenhuan felt for the first time that he had a heart but was powerless. This water pool with a radius of hundreds of miles is like a moat embedded in the surrounding majestic mountains, which is intimidating.

On the mighty water, there are flocks of wild ducks; In the reeds, there seems to be an endless range of dangers.

According to the report of the Supervision Department, there are more than 1,000 water thieves hiding in the 800 miles of Shuibo, the surrounding four main peaks of Liangshan, Qinglong Mountain, Fenghuang Mountain, and Guishan, as well as Hutou Peak, Snow Mountain Peak, Hao Mountain Peak, and Xiaohuang Mountain.

This figure is only an estimate, and the Supervision Department itself cannot do it accurately. According to the past merchants, porters, and surrounding farmers, the water thieves here only attack the rich merchants, and generally do not rob the rest of the people.

Think about it, in addition to rich businessmen, ordinary farmers or something, how much oil and water can be fished?

Gradually, the notoriety of Shuibo Liangshan became far and wide, and the wealthy businessmen heard that in this Shuibo Liangshan, there were so-called water thieves who "robbed the rich and helped the poor", where did they dare to take this waterway? Reroute the rest of the river, preferring to walk hundreds of miles more than take these risks.

Slowly, after the number of wealthy merchants gradually decreased, the water thieves lost their "bulk trade", so they started the idea of ordinary businessmen. For a time, Shuibo Liangshan became synonymous with water thieves, and its notoriety spread far and wide.

The nearby farmers, hunters, and fishermen didn't feel much for them. Most of these people are busy for two meals a day, and they almost can't support their families, where is there any money left! Although Chang'an City, and the people near Jingzhao Mansion, are accustomed to three meals a day. But most of the people in Dashun are still having a hard time. There are two meals a day, and they are already very satisfied.

The water thieves automatically ignored these bitter people, so the secret agents of the Supervision Department pretended to be fishermen, mixed up next to the water village of the water thieves, and found out one or two. Water thieves are not exclusive to fishermen, and sometimes even take money to buy fish, although they are generally below the market price, and there is a suspicion of forced purchase. Therefore, the average poor family is respectful of these fierce water thieves.

Lu Chenhuan rode a big black horse and walked around Shuibo alone for a while, his brows furrowed. It's not that he hasn't seen a river or a lake, but it's really the first time he's seen such a big lake.

You must know that compared with famous lakes such as Dongting Lake and Taihu Lake, this water pool is much larger, at least more than double that of Taihu Lake!

In fact, in the past, there was no such a big lake in Dongping Mansion. Yes, there are just steep peaks and patches of fertile fields. In the later period of the former dynasty, the Yellow River burst in Huazhou, and the river spread for hundreds of miles to the east, and the water accumulated around the mountains of Liangshan, forming a huge lake. In the fifth year of Dashun Tianyuan, due to continuous heavy rainfall, the Yellow River broke in Huazhou again. The surging water of the Yellow River, passing through Shanzhou, Puzhou, Caozhou and Yuncheng, is once again injected into the Liangshan water, making the water berth area continue to expand.

It can be said that the breach of the Yellow River is the main reason for the formation of the Liangshan water. Lu Chengqi read "Water Margin", and thought it was the author's exaggeration, where was there such a big lake in Shandong Province before rebirth! Thanks to Lu Chengqi, he thought it was just a small lake and a small water thief, but it could be calmed down overnight.

This is all because the flow of the Yellow River gradually returned to the river channel after it decreased, and without the river water inflow, no matter how large the water pool was, it would slowly turn into land. So much so that later, before Lu Chengqi was reborn, there was only one Dongping Lake left.

Looking at the small fishing boats that appeared from time to time in the distance, Lu Chenhuan was depressed in his heart. The name of Liang Shanbo, he has also heard of it. But it's better to meet than to be famous, and I was really scared at first sight.

As a landlubber, Lu Chenhuan naturally has an instinctive fear of this water pool. But the big black horse was so excited that he ran to the water and drank the water.

Lu Chenhuan looked at the steep peaks around him, ignored the horse, and thought to himself: "If Lao Tzu is a water thief, he must have a foothold on those mountains, and a gate will be erected under the mountain, condescending, with hundreds of bows, who can attack it?" No matter how bad it is, so many reeds, if you drill into the reeds, don't say a hundred or ten people, even ten thousand people, you can't find them! ”

Thinking of this, Lu Chenhuan was even more melancholy.

There are only more than 40,000 forbidden troops under his command, only more than 20,000 soldiers, and the rest are auxiliaries. Whether it is a soldier or an auxiliary soldier, most of them are good men in Qindi, where do they know the water nature? Even if you have a boat in your hand, you won't use it!

In ancient times, ships that fought wars did not rely on wind power, but with the help of boats or wheels, and controlled the movement of the ships with manpower, quickly approaching the enemy ships, and engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

Don't say that these Qin soldiers are dead, even ordinary Shandong men, and they may not necessarily make ships. Therefore, Lu Chenhuan is so worried, if he is in the water, he can't say that there are more than 40,000 or 50,000 people in his hands, even 100,000, and 200,000 is not enough to fill this water! Wouldn't you know how to fight a water war, wouldn't that be a good one!

Even if Lu Chenhuan has never read a military book, he knows this truth. What's more, Lu Chenhuan has read a lot of military books and knows that fighting a war is to give full play to his greatest advantages in order to reduce casualties and achieve the greatest results.

The book of war can teach you how to judge the situation, but it will not teach you how to make an army command and command easily, and how to emphasize military discipline. Therefore, in general, there will not be many ancient generals who lead troops. If there are too many, the military orders will not be smooth, and the war will be wrong. This is all due to the problems of communication technology in ancient times, which basically relied on shouting and relying on people to convey information, and the middle and low-level officers lacked effective training, and when they really started a war, they almost all relied on instinctive reactions. If it's okay to have a good fight, just go up and cut it down as soon as you swarm it; If you fight against the wind, the rout will be able to scatter you!

If the military discipline is strict and the army is well-trained, the decision is to enforce the order and prohibition, and it will not be greedy for merit, and it will not retreat. It is often possible to closely follow the low-level officers, and the low-level officers follow the middle-level officers, and issue military orders layer by layer, so that an army of tens of thousands of people can be effectively connected in series.

Don't look at Lu Chenhuan's ability to lead an army of nearly 50,000 people, which seems to be much inferior to the great battles of hundreds of thousands, or even millions of people in history, in fact, the generals next to him don't know how much they envy him. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, only a handful of them have led more than 50,000 troops to the battle. Fat Lu didn't know what kind of good luck he had to get such a "beauty difference".

But now facing the mighty Liangshan Shuibo, Lu Chenhuan is bitter except for a bitter smile. Before, he also thought that it was a beautiful thing, but he didn't expect it to be difficult to ride a tiger at this moment. The previous conquest of the Wang family was quite smooth, but there were many mistakes in the end. If he doesn't make any achievements this time, I'm afraid that his name of Lu Chenhuan's incompetence will be engraved on the history...... (To be continued.) )
