That night, Hu Zhen summoned the officers above the military Sima level to have a banquet, and more than 60 people were gathered, which was not lively.

During the banquet, the envoy who came to the labor army read out Dong Zhuo's edict in public, except for Hu Zhen, Hua Xiong, and Luo Zheng who were sealed, the rest of the generals and colonels were also rewarded.

Luo Zheng was directly crowned a school captain, which was really a surprise.

I thought that at most, I would be promoted to the next level, and it would be the end of giving a military horse.

I didn't expect Dong Zhuo to be so generous, and directly promoted him to captain, saving a lot of effort.

After the celebration banquet dispersed, the drunk Luo Zheng was sent to a mansion by Hu Zhen.

According to the Han military system, the captain is already considered a senior officer, with the same rank as 2,000 stones, and is on the same level as Taishou.

Although since Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, the dynasty has been chaotic, and there have been many generals and captains, and the princes from all walks of life have even wantonly given their subordinates officials and knights, and they have already made a mess of the official system.

But in the army, officers at the rank of lieutenant can still enjoy the treatment they deserve.

Not to mention anything else, only generals above the rank of lieutenant can have their own mansion in Bishui Pass.

"The villain sees the general!"

Before Luo Zheng entered the mansion, Chen Tong and a few of his subordinates came out.

"Chen Tong, why are you here?"

Luo Zheng was stunned, no one knew about his promotion to lieutenant.

Chen Tongxi was overjoyed and said: "General Hui, it was General Hu Zhen who sent someone to tell us, saying that the general has been promoted to captain and should have his own mansion in Bishui Pass, and let a few of us come over to serve the general." ”

"Well, that's good!"

Luo Zheng nodded, and his heart suddenly sank.

Although Hu Zhen is not a good general, he is quite good at winning people's hearts.

Then I thought about it, but who is a fool if anyone can achieve a high position. If you don't win people's hearts, who else will be willing to work for you. Dong Zhuo is like this, Hu Zhen is like this, and the rest of the generals under Dong Zhuo are also like this.

When he arrived in the inner courtyard, two women in their early twenties met him and served him to bed.

Both women were dressed in coarse cloth clothes, and their hands were also thick calluses, and they looked average and slightly old, and they should be peasant women. And some are cowering, with fear hidden in their eyes, as well as helplessness and despair for life.

"Go to sleep, leave me alone!"

Luo Zheng waved his hand and didn't touch their thoughts.

The two women were sent by Hu Zhen, although women are not allowed in the army, but the discipline of the Xiliang Army is a little loose, and it is not uncommon for women to be the general of the army, or even to simply raise a few women in a temporary mansion.

As for the woman who was robbed, she could only wait for the arrangement of fate.

They were all poor people, and Luo Zheng didn't want to hurt them.

There were 30,000 troops, 10,000 cavalry, and 20,000 infantry.

Cavalry assists infantry in defending the city, but is not responsible for patrolling the city.

When there is no war, they rest in the barracks and are on standby, and there is nothing to do in peacetime.

Luo Zheng was promoted as a new official, and the next day he inspected the camp, convened a small meeting of the officers and soldiers above the Dubo level, and said some nonsense to encourage everyone to kill the enemy bravely and make meritorious contributions, and then took Chen Tong and a dozen other personal soldiers back to the mansion.

Since the destruction of Sun Jiandi's 8,000 vanguard army, it has been a rare rest for more than ten days.

Luo Zheng had nothing to do, so he seized the time to practice martial arts, and occasionally took time to pick up the vegetable garden.

The importance of martial arts is self-evident, not only as a bargaining chip for meritorious achievements, but also as a skill to save one's life.

If you want to survive on the battlefield, you must also practice your martial arts well no matter what.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and Bishui Pass has been very calm.

Although Hu Zhen is not good at commanding troops, he is not stupid, knowing that the Kwantung rebels are in Sujube and may call at any time, he sent scouts to strictly spy on every move of the Kwantung rebels, in case he was caught off guard.

However, it was said that since Sun Jian escaped that night, he ran for dozens of miles in the dark without knowing the direction, and it was not until after dawn that he found Cheng Pu, who also escaped, and learned that Huang Gai and Han Dang were captured, and he couldn't help but sigh in the sky, and sadness came from it.

Thinking of the pride when he first started the army, how could he not sigh and sigh when he was defeated and fled for his life.

Han Dang, Huang Gai, and Zu Mao's three confidants and generals all folded in Bishui Pass, making Sun Jian's heart bleed.

Thinking of the three generals who have been loyal all these years, and followed him in the south and the north in front of the saddle, although he was the main minister, in fact, the friendship was better than that of brothers and sisters, but now he died on the battlefield, Sun Jian couldn't help but cry.

When the soldiers are gone, they can be recruited again, but loyal and capable generals are not something that can be obtained casually.

However, Sun Jian is a masterpiece of a generation after all, and he quickly cheered up, gathered the defeated soldiers who fled back, and in about five days, gathered nearly a thousand remnants, and Cheng Pu took more than 1,000 remnants of the defeated soldiers to go straight to the sour date, preparing to go to the coalition camp to make plans again.

Three days later, they arrived at the coalition camp.

Sun Jian went straight to the Chinese army, and when he arrived at the big tent of Yuan Shao, the leader of the coalition army, all the princes were there.

"Why didn't Ming Gong distribute grain and grass, which led to the defeat of the Jian army and the spirit of the coalition army?"

Sun Jian glared angrily, ran straight to Yuan Shu's approach, and questioned sharply.

Although this defeat was due to being caught off guard by the sneak attack of the Xiliang army, the main reason was that Yuan Shu listened to the greedy words and refused to give Sun Jian's vanguard army food and grass, so that the army's heart was unstable, and the Xiliang army had an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Otherwise, Sun Jian has been fighting for many years, and he dares to be attacked lightly.

Yuan Shu knew that he was at a loss, so he looked at him left and right, and said embarrassedly: "I also believe in the villain's slander, don't blame Wentai." ”

Sun Jian drew his sword in his hand and said sharply: "Qi is also angry, such a villain, what good is it to stay." Who is the one who is playing right and wrong, Ming Gong please hand it over, and kill it with a certain sword to comfort the souls of the soldiers under his command in the sky. ”

Yuan Shu couldn't wipe his face, and couldn't help but snort coldly.

The princes from all walks of life also stepped forward to comfort him and pulled Sun Jian aside to sit down.

Everyone discussed for a while, and at this time the grain and grass were ready, and they immediately decided to move their army westward and take the Bishui Pass.

Five days later, the princes of all walks of life raised an army of 300,000 and rushed to the water pass.

Sun Jian only had nearly 1,000 remnants left, so he had no choice but to borrow 3,000 soldiers and horses from Yuan Shu, so that it would not be so embarrassing.

Yuan Shu was at a loss first, and because Sun Jian killed Nanyang Taishou Zhang Zhi and helped him seize Nanyang, he was already on good terms, but at this moment Sun Jian was down, so he readily agreed to Sun Jian's request to borrow troops and his 3,000 soldiers.

Five days later, 300,000 Kwantung coalition troops slaughtered 20 miles west of Bishui Pass and set up camp. At a glance, the east of Bishui Pass is full of dense military camps, stretching for dozens of miles, which is magnificent.

Although the Kwantung Coalition Army was huge, it did not want to have 300,000 troops, so he was busy flying to Luoyang in an expedited manner of 800 miles, and at the same time urgently summoned the generals to discuss countermeasures.

The Great Tent of the Chinese Army.

Hu Zhen was at the head of the case, and the generals and colonels above the military Sima were lined up on both sides.

It was the first time Luo Zheng participated in this kind of high-level military meeting, and he sat in sixth place on the left, and his position was still at the front.

Hu Zhen glanced at the generals under his account, and said in a condensed voice: "Today, the Kwantung rebels have raised 300,000 troops to attack, ten times the strength of our army, and the momentum is huge, how should our army respond to the enemy, do you have a good strategy to retreat from the enemy?" ”

A general said: "The Kwantung Army is ten times stronger than our army, and it can only be outwitted, not hard-fought." ”

Hu Zhen asked, "How to outwit?" ”

The general opened his mouth and said embarrassedly, "The last general hasn't thought of a good way for the time being." ”

Hua Xiong, who was at the head of the generals, said loudly: "My Xiliang Iron Cavalry is powerful in the world, invincible, invincible, and invincible. ”

Everyone who listened was refreshed.

Yes, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is powerful in the world, how can it be afraid of the rabble of the Kwantung rebels.

It's just that I just heard about the 300,000 army, and I was shocked.

At this time, when he came back to his senses, he was immediately in high spirits and rubbed his hands together.

Hu Zhen was infected by this atmosphere, and he was also in high spirits, and he was immediately ambitious.

At this time, the Xiliang Army has not yet been defeated since following Dong Zhuo into Luoyang, so it is no wonder that these commanders are full of spirit. Before it was hit head-on, no one took the Kwantung Army seriously at all.

Luo Zheng rolled his eyes, really speechless.

Although the Kwantung coalition is certainly a mixed bag, it is definitely not a rabble. Moreover, even if it is really a rabble of improvised patchwork, the figure of 300,000 must not be overlooked.

These Xiliang generals all thought that the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was powerful in the world, so they dared to underestimate the heroes of the world.

Luo Zheng shook his head secretly, although Dong Zhuo's subordinates did have a few people of true knowledge and insight, they were by no means included in all of you here.

Zhang Liao, Xu Huang and several other real generals, they don't know where to mix now, and they haven't emerged at all.

Although Hu Zhen also has some ability, he is really not his strength in commanding the army.

Luo Zheng did not make a sound, and secretly observed the dozens of generals and colonies present, and found that although most of the generals and colonels did not take the Kwantung Army seriously, there were also a few generals who showed a worried look and were obviously not optimistic.

Strangely, no one came out to warn him.

Luo Zheng thought about it for a while, and then understood.

Now Hu Zhen and his generals are all in high spirits, and at this time, pouring cold water on them will not only not work, but will cause the displeasure of Hu Zhen and most of the generals, this kind of thankless thing, naturally no one wants to do.

"If the generals are not united, how can they be undefeated!"

Luo Zheng shook his head, and the thought in his heart was even firmer.

Hu Zhen arranged the details of the city defense, and ended this short military discussion.

Luo Zheng did not go to the mansion again, but went directly to the barracks, gathered his 2,000 cavalry to hurry up and practice, sharpened the sabers, and fed the war horses to cope with the upcoming battle.

The wars of the Ice Age have a long history, and the evolution of strategy and tactics is almost the crystallization of the wisdom of human progress.

From the earliest battle of chariots and horses to the change of the mode of war in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the purpose of military warfare has become clearer and clearer, and it can be said that everything is done in order to win.

As a result, many masters of the art of war rose up in response to the situation.

Wu Qi, Sun Bin, Zhao Wuling Wang and other masters of the art of war in Chinese history all played a vital role in the evolution of warfare, making warfare more detail-oriented, and the coordination of arms and tactics more strategic.

All kinds of tactics and strategies emerged one after another, and by the time of the former Han Dynasty, a relatively complete system had been formed.

In particular, the former Zhao Wuling King, the Zhao monarch's 'Hufu cavalry shooting' directly promoted and changed the mode of warfare, from chariot warfare to large-scale cavalry combat, and eliminated the chariots that had prevailed for hundreds of years.

Later, Li Mei, Wang Jian and other peerless famous generals, but also the use of cavalry to improve, to the former Han Dynasty Emperor Wu, the former Han Dynasty famous generals Wei Qing, Huo Qubing pushed the cavalry to the peak.

Today, the ancients have summed up a complete system of warfare.

While Luo Zheng was training, he was also learning from the experience and wisdom of the ancients, and enriching himself to the best of his ability.

War is not child's play, as Sun Wu said, soldiers are treacherous, the battlefield is ever-changing, and anything can happen.

So it seems that it can't; It seems to look like it doesn't work; Near seems to look far; Far seems to seem near. The advantageous can lure it, the chaotic can seize it, the solid can guard it, the strong can avoid it, the strong can harass it, the contemptuous can pamper it, the hidden can tire it, and the close can divide it.

Attack it where it is defenseless, and attack when it is not looking.

The outcome of a war depends on the right time, place, and people.

The use of tactics depends on the use of favorable conditions by the commanders and generals. An excellent general can take advantage of a favorable condition, including all-encompassing intrigues and contests between people's hearts, so he can win; Otherwise, you lose.

Luo Zheng didn't dare to underestimate the IQ of the ancients just because he was a traverser.

War is not only the use of strategy and tactics, but also the grasp and insight of human nature.

Figuring out the mind, character, and style of the enemy's commander-in-chief, as well as winning the support of the generals and soldiers under his command, etc., every detail of them affects the outcome of the war, and it is impossible to ignore it.

These things are easy to say, but when you actually do them, you know how difficult they are.

Therefore, in every era, there are only a few real celebrities.

If you read a few military books and think that war is nothing more than that, it can only be regarded as talk on paper.

Zhao Kuo is the most typical example, and the Changping fiasco left the most vivid negative teaching materials for future generations.
