Liu He commanded a limited number of troops to win two battles in a row, and suddenly his image became taller in the minds of the soldiers.

Although Liu He led the team a little later in the first battle, he was the first to propose the strategy of ambushing, and he also gave the order to order Tian Chou to pursue the Zhao family and flee the cavalry.

If it weren't for Tian Chou leading the team to wipe out the Zhao cavalry that escaped from the valley, then Jing Hao would probably have learned the news of the annihilation of the Zhao family's army, and then urgently turned around and retreated to Jingjiawu Fort, resulting in the second surprise attack on the Jing family's troops in defeat.

The second battle was carried out in full accordance with Liu He's intentions, first using the high-speed penetration ability of the cavalry to cut off the retreat of the Jing family, and then concentrating superior forces to encircle and annihilate the Jing family's troops under favorable terrain conditions.

Although Liu He's control over some battlefield details is still insufficient, as a powerless civilian official, he can calmly command hundreds of people to fight, and he has already demonstrated an impressive command talent.

Even Liu He himself didn't expect that he still had such a ability, he just tried to imagine himself as the principal of a middle school, and then he was organizing the students in the school to have a large-scale sports competition, in order to get the championship trophy, he had to organize all aspects in place, and did not dare to be sloppy and slack.

In fact, isn't the battle on the battlefield a competitive competition with a large number of people? It's just that the stakes are too big in this game, the winning side wins the right to continue to survive, and the losing side loses their lives and everything......

After the war, various matters were carried out in an orderly manner under the command of Tian Chou, Xian Yuyin, Qu Yong, Qu Meng and others, and Liu He left the battlefield full of the smell of blood, sat on the top of a mound, and silently thought about his thoughts.

Wang Yue was still inseparably guarding Liu He's side, and a little farther away were the twenty veterans of the Shenxi Army.

The veterans in the Shenxi army are naturally the Xiliang veterans who were recruited by Liu He. Although Shen Xijun was hastily created, Liu He attached great importance to the role played by these veterans in the team from the very beginning, and not only selected 20 of them to serve as his personal guards, but also appointed the remaining 60 people to the grassroots positions of "Wu Chang" and "Shi Chang" respectively.

According to the military system of the Han Dynasty, from top to bottom, it is divided into seven levels: army, department, qu, tun, team, shi, and wu.

One team is 5 people, two teams are one tithe, and one tithe is 10 people. The front, back, left, center, and right are grouped together into a team, and a team is 50 people. Then the two teams are one tun, and one tun is 100 people; The front and back, left, middle and right five tuns are compiled into a song, and a song is 500 people. The five songs of the front and back, left, middle and right are compiled into one, one is 2,500 people, and the song leader is the captain; The five divisions were organized into one army, and one army was 12,500 people.

As the name suggests, the captain is the leader who manages the five soldiers, similar to the deputy squad leader in the later army; The chief manages 10 soldiers, which is equivalent to a squad leader; The squad is commanding and managing 50 soldiers, equivalent to a platoon commander or deputy company commander; The commander commanded 100 soldiers, which was basically the same as the number commanded by the company commander in the army in later generations.

By analogy, Qu Chang commanded 500 soldiers, which was equivalent to the battalion commander of later generations, and the rank of lieutenant was exactly the same as the rank of major of the battalion officer in later generations. Above the song is the ministry, but there is no title of minister, the commander of the first department commands more than 2,500 people, is called the captain, and its power is equivalent to the commander of the army in later generations.

The military attache in charge of security in a border county town in the Han Dynasty was the commander, and Xian Yuyin held the position of cavalry captain in front of Liu Yu's account.

In the Han Dynasty, there was no two-level establishment similar to the division and brigade in the army in later generations, and above the ministry level was the army, with more than 10,000 people in each army, with its own banner, and the rank of commander was at least a miscellaneous general or above.

In ancient times, the so-called division was a general term for the army of a certain side, such as "the division won a great victory", "the division was nameless", "a million heroic divisions" and so on. In other words, in ancient times, the "division" was not a unit of military formation, but referred to the army itself.

Although Liu He did not join the army in that time and space in later generations, he entered the army camp to receive formal military training, and he had the most contact with several old squad leaders who led the troops, so he had a deep understanding and understanding of the role played by the squad leader at the lowest level of the army.

The squad leader, known as the "mother of the army" by the soldiers, is definitely the key to giving birth to the combat effectiveness of a unit.

Now, Liu He has let the Xiliang veterans serve as the commander and the chief, and they will discipline and train the newly recruited tenants to see if they can improve the combat strength of the Shenxi army in the shortest possible time.

Liu He's requirements were not high, and when he left Nanyang, he wanted to see this army, which was created by him, at least defeat the private soldiers and bandits of any family in Nanyang County if they were equal in number.

Just as Liu He was sitting on the mound silently planning the future development direction of Shen Xijun, Tian Chou and others came to report to him one after another.

Tian Chou said: "Childe, the battle damage and capture figures have been counted. Today, a total of 800 people from the Zhao family and the Jing family were annihilated, of which 274 were killed on the spot, 83 were executed and 443 were captured. Three hundred and seventy swords, one hundred and fifty bows, two hundred and thirty spears, more than 1,700 arrows, and seventy-five horses were captured, of which 23 were seriously wounded. ”

"Thirty-seven people were killed and ninety-two wounded. Among them, 28 were seriously injured and 64 were lightly injured; Shen Xijun wounded nine people, two seriously, seven lightly wounded, and no one died. ”

"Immediately arrange personnel to send the seriously injured soldier back to Qu Jiabao and tell Qu Lin to treat him at any cost! In addition, all teams were instructed to use a boiled white cloth to bandage the wound, and never touch the wound directly with their hands! ”

Tian Chou received the order and left quickly.

Xian Yuyin came to report: "Childe, I personally supervised it, and all the military commanders and even chiefs set an example, so that everyone in the tenants in the Shenxi army has touched their hands and seen blood." ”

"But someone is scared to pee their pants?" Liu He suddenly asked with a wicked smile.

"How not! Several of them were so frightened that their faces turned green, and they urinated at that time, and they didn't dare to step forward, but they were forced by their captain and Shi Chang to stuff the handle of the knife into their hands, and then slashed down. Xian Yu Yin's eyebrows fluttered and described to Liu He.

"The order goes down, no one is allowed to laugh at these timid soldiers, they dare not kill people, it is not a shameful thing, at least it shows that they are kind in their hearts. In the future, soldiers should be treated differently in training and combat. the bold, arrange for them to charge and fight hand-to-hand; The timid arranged for them to transport grain and grass to guard the camp. ”

"Childe is smart!"

"Come less, hurry up and get to work!"

After Xian Yuyin left, Qu Yong came to ask for instructions again: "Childe, I don't know what to do with these captives and captured booty?" ”

"Do you want these captives?"

"Don't give it to the Qu family, these soldiers now hate the Qu family in their hearts, if we take them in, we will guard against each other in the future, and there may be a lot of chaos."

"That's what you said! Then, these captives will all belong to my son. Do you have a crush on those horses? ”

"Nanyang does not produce horses, and the road from Xiliang and Youzhou to the Central Plains to sell horses has long been cut off because of the constant wars in various places, and the Qu family really needs these horses." Qu Lin did not hide it, and said truthfully.

"Alas, that is, in Nanyang! If this son returns to Youzhou, these horses will be killed and eaten at most, and I really can't look down on them. When Liu He thought that there were tens of thousands of horses in the hands of the cheap father, he immediately felt full of confidence in his heart.

"Ben Gongzi is a very good talker! In this way, half of these horses are part of our family, and as for the other knives, guns, bows, and arrows, it is estimated that your Qu family will not look down on them, and they will all belong to the Shen Xi army. What do you think? ”

Liu He looked at Qu Yong with a "sincere" face, and directly blocked Qu Yong's full stomach of opinions.

"Childe arranges it like this, and the contemptible people have no objection." Qu Yong said with some grievances. He scolded secretly in his heart: What a treacherous thief, the battle is fought by the soldiers of the Qu family, and the people are the soldiers of the Qu family who are dying. How can so many knives, guns, bows and arrows become fragments?

"That's right, we still have a long time to work together in the future! In the future, if you want to buy a horse, just ask, as long as I say a word, I promise to let Youzhou sell you the best horse! ”

Liu He patted Qu Yong's shoulder and put on a very righteous look.

Qu Yong was about to leave with a complicated mood, but Liu He said: "The next thing is to fight and kill, you can return to Qujiabao with the wounded soldiers." With Qu Meng by my side, cleaning up the remnants of the Zhao family and the Jing family is just a gesture. In addition, as soon as you return, you will be of great use to prepare me a large amount of lime or plant ash. ”

"What does Childe need so much lime for?" Qu Yong asked with some curiosity.

"Didn't I cut off a lot of heads just now, these heads need to be stacked with lime or plant ash and the like, so that they can be put for a longer time. These people will be of great use in the future, but they can't just be buried! ”

The corners of Qu Yong's mouth twitched twice, wanting to say something, but he still held back.

After Qu Yong left, Wang Yue finally couldn't help but ask, "Childe, what are you doing with these heads?" ”

Liu He said meaningfully: "I made such a big move in Sanhu Pavilion, Yuan Yin, who was stationed in Danshui County, would definitely send someone to investigate, and there would have to be a top tank at that time, right?" I plan to put the charge of destroying the Zhao family and the Jing family on the heads of the Yellow Turban rebels, and as for the Yellow Turban rebels, they were all exterminated by the heroic and fearless Qu family soldiers! ”

Wang Yue is an old man, and when he heard it, he understood that Liu He was going to blame the dead people, but the dead people were from the Zhao family and the Jing family, and they were finally accused of a yellow scarf by Liu He, which was too insidious and vicious, right?

However, then again, the more calculating Liu He is, the more motivated Wang Yue becomes. Who wants to mess around with a fool!
