Chapter 35 Combat Strength

These soldiers were used by Wen Chou to stay in the counties of Changshan, after all, he was about to lead the army to the vicinity of Luoyang to ask for Dong, and the surrounding area of Changshan was not peaceful! Although Zhang Yan had reached an armistice agreement with him, Han Fu, Yuan Shao and others. But who knows what the future won't go wrong for them to attack themselves? Wen Chou had to guard against it. That's why there are 10,000 newly recruited soldiers.

And some of these new soldiers will need to serve as the baggage soldiers of Wen Chou's army to Luoyang. Although he has reached an agreement with Han Fu, the state pastor, and Han Fu will provide him with grain and grass, but in his previous life, there have been problems such as deducting grain and grass and insufficient grain and grass, but at all times, Xiang Wenchou reminded him that such a truth, it is not possible to put such a major matter related to survival in the hands of others, and do not hope that others can do anything for you, but rely on yourself. Especially in the face of big things.

Therefore, Wen Chou decided to bring some grain and grass from the state pastor Han Fu at the same time, and to bring his own grain and grass to protect the Lord, supplemented by Han Fu's grain and grass, he would not hand over his name to others. In this way, it is necessary to form a baggage army! Not only that, but the scale of the healers accompanying the army is also far greater than in the previous wars. This is due to the mechanism of medical craftsman training implemented by Wen Chou in his jurisdiction, that is, the medical Cao in charge of Li Dangzhi!

After more than a year of reserves and training, there are more than 1,000 people in the jurisdiction of Wenchou who can practice medicine alone! This is a huge number, because the people in the Wenchou jurisdiction are only two or three hundred thousand! The existence of these medical craftsmen has further improved the life security of the Qiantou in the jurisdiction. And the existence of these healers is also prepared to reduce casualties in future wars.

In an ordinary battle formation, there are two or three thousand people in an army, and it is good to have one or two medical craftsmen with the army, and people do not pay much attention to the wounded soldiers and the disabled! As a result, the casualty rate of the soldiers above the battle formation was extremely large, basically after suffering some slightly more serious injuries. It will be abandoned by the army, so that more people will be killed in battle, and less wounded soldiers will survive from the battlefield. This is a very inhumane way of dealing with it.

And a very important reason why Wen Chou has spent so much effort to cultivate so many medical craftsmen is to change such a status quo! In the war, we can try to save some of the elite soldiers who have contributed to it, they defend their families, throw their heads, and spill their blood, and they should not be abandoned or forgotten. And these medical craftsmen of Wen Chou will draw out nearly half of their manpower. Form a well-established military medical system! As a result, the casualty rate of the Wen Chou army can be greatly reduced! This is also an important part of the policy of the ugly elite soldiers! These soldiers are all elite soldiers, and Wen Chou doesn't want to lose any of them.

These things have been prepared as early as last year. This can be regarded as a practical application of his wisdom and knowledge that is 2,000 years ahead of the ancients! It was also a more practical reform, just like Wen Chou's reform of agricultural tools, which greatly improved the farming efficiency of the Qianshou in his jurisdiction, so that the grain they harvested could have a large surplus after handing over the amount due. This is where Wen Chou relies on! That is the sufficiency of grain and grass.

The abundance of grain and grass makes Wen Chou better than most of the princes' forces, not to mention, that is, Zhang Yan does not live in the problem of considering the origin of grain and grass every day. Even the grain and grass of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and other princes are not very rich. And after Wen Chou researched the long and curved plow, their grain and grass have never been in short supply.

Even when the warehouses were opened for relief, the displaced people were gathered, and the grain and grass were traded to the surrounding counties and counties, the grain and grass of the Wenchou forces were also stored in tens of thousands of stones! Although the warehouse has basically bottomed out, it is far from being comparable to the highest reserve of 1.2 million stones. However, now the amount of grain and grass stored within the Wen Chou forces has reached more than two million stones! It can support Wen Chou's combat power of 10,000 or 20,000 for several years! This is where Wen Chou depends! It is also an advantage that other princes cannot match.

After Wen Chou finished his inspection in Pingjian County, he led everyone to rush to Gaoyi County, in a sense, Gaoyi County is the foundation of Wen Chou's power. The initial place of the Wenchou forces in Shahe Township. At this time, under the early arrival of Lu Liang in Gaoyi County, Li Hui, Lu Liang, Liu Zhong and others had already sent 90,000 people in the county. All mobilized and began to prepare for Wen Chou's final army.

In Gaoyi County, Wen Chou still has 2,000 soldiers who can take action, and these soldiers need to follow Wen Chou to Luoyang to crusade against Dong Zhuo. And after that, the matter of military training in the county. It will not stop, but it will be more severe, and those who remain behind must train a soldier who can fight as soon as possible, at least a soldier who can participate in the defense of the city! This is not a difficult question.

Besides. Wen Chou will also draw 1,500 troops from Luan County and Fang County as the second army to participate in the fight against Dong. In this way, the number of troops that he can send out has reached more than 10,000, of which there are 4,500 core elites, which are composed of the Taolin Army and the Gaoyi core; There are 4,000 elite county soldiers, which are reorganized by the county soldiers; The other is the thousand five reserve soldiers, and the baggage force composed of the thousand five new soldiers! In the main station unit, there are five or six hundred medical craftsmen accompanying the team! In a certain situation, the elite of the four thousand county soldiers is also the important soldier of the grain and grass escort! It is a mobile force that can be regarded as the strength of Wen Chou, and it is not the main combat force. This is not only the composition of Wen Chou's troops.

Of course, there are all kinds of troops, and they also have a full degree of tacit cooperation, which can make the combat power of the soldiers of Wen Chou go to a higher level. And these troops are also the opportunity to be all of Wen Chou's forces, except for the newly recruited soldiers, the old soldiers and old soldiers have the opportunity to be exhausted for Wen Chou! Even the remaining two or three thousand veterans are also scattered within the division and the new pawns, as the backbone, thus producing the effect of bringing the old with the new.

As for the personnel left behind, Wen Chou and his staff have already made a plan, first of all, with Wen Chou's strong support, it is necessary for Yan Liang, Wen Ba, and Lu Liang to rush to the front line with him. Yan Liang's martial arts is indispensable to Wen Chou, Wen Ba's recklessness and Wen Chou are not at ease that he stays at the base, Lu Liang is a general's talent, and Wen Chou has the heart to cultivate it.
