Chapter 648: The reappearance of special troops

The people present were all smart people, so they naturally understood the meaning of Liu Feng's words. In the troubled times, it is necessary to master a strong army in order to keep the pure land of Jiangdong.

Hundred battles, although they have never seen it, but they will not be strangers. The army formed by hundreds of years of fighting during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period may be difficult to guess, but they still know the reputation of the elite soldiers who fought a hundred battles during the rise of Guangwu. At that time, Emperor Shizu, with the protector of the country by his side, and the assistance of twenty-eight people, fought in the south and north for decades, and created a hundred elite soldiers, which stood out from a group of inconspicuous forces and became the final winner. In this process, the elite army of a hundred battles played a great role.

Although later, due to the peace of the prosperous era, the war gradually decreased, when a generation of elite soldiers of a hundred battles grew old, in the next nearly two hundred years, there were no new elite soldiers of a hundred battles, replaced by elite soldiers. So many times, this kind of strong army is overlooked.

It's not that no one wants to replicate the glory, but the price is too great, behind the birth of a hundred battles of elite soldiers, there are a lot of corpses, that is, it is necessary to survive one battlefield after another to become such elite soldiers. It takes a long time span for thousands or even tens of thousands of people to be born, more than ten or even twenty years, and in the era of peace, no one can afford this kind of loss. Therefore, even if the Han Dynasty had repeated victories in the northern expedition against the Xiongnu, it was not able to reproduce it.

Now, a hundred elite soldiers have appeared, and more than one prince has appeared. Most players see the strong combat effectiveness of the elite soldiers of a hundred battles, but what Liu Feng thinks more about is the loss behind its appearance.

Under Liu Bei, there are Tian Feng, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Zhang Jaw, Xu Rong and other heroes, the trained army is at least elite, and it is the elite above the level, after entering Youzhou, he destroyed Gongsun Zan in a short period of time, blocked Yuan Shao's pace to the north, and immediately expeditioned to Liaodong, blocking the southward movement of Xianbei and Wuhuan people, I don't know how many soldiers died, and only then did he train a hundred elite soldiers.

Lu Bu is no worse than Liu Bei, he is a fierce general, and the Bingzhou wolf cavalry under his command is one of the most elite armies of the Han Dynasty, and fighting is always a frontal attack, and no one is invincible. Facing the Kwantung princes and the Xiliang coalition army, the people under the fence had to fight for survival, until they finally ran back to the state, seized a piece of territory, and wiped out the Baibo army little by little, Lu Bu's war never stopped. The mortality rate of the soldiers under Lu Bu's command was definitely the highest among the Han princes, and the death of batches of soldiers was exchanged for the rest of the battle, Liu Feng was not surprised.

Yuan Shao, not to mention anything else, just the countless Wenchen generals under his command fought in Qingzhou for two years, and the city by city took Qingzhou back from the Yellow Turban Army and players, which was enough for him to train a hundred battles; Not to mention Cao Cao, Cao's Yingjie has never lagged behind, Yanzhou is already in the land of four wars, and the living environment is difficult, so Cao Cao has to take Yuan Shu again and again; Sun Jian is the same way, from a general under Yuan Shu to the present, Sun Jian's prestige has been made; and Liu Biao's expedition to Jingnan, Changsha is a meat grinder...... Even Yuan Shu, although he has been defeated repeatedly in recent years, he has also tempered a group of elite soldiers in a hundred battles. Because Yuan Shu's enemies, none of them are weak, they are all powerful princes around, Yuan Shu can fight against them at the same time, and the elite degree of the soldiers can be imagined. That is, the military generals of Wenchen are not very powerful, so they have been defeated repeatedly.

In contrast, Liu Feng is already lagging behind. Although Jiangdong has been expanding, it has never experienced a real big war, either by trickery or crushed by superior forces, and every victorious war will not lose more than the enemy. In other words, Liu Feng's Jiangdong army has never fought against other princes head-on. That is, the last time the expedition to the west of Huangzu, the navy faced off head-on, and there was also speculation in it.

So in the eyes of the other princes, Jiangdong was still weak. Without defeating the princes all the way head-on, this impression will never change. And without deterrence, Jiangdong will always be remembered by others.

Therefore, if Liu Feng wants to fight this battle, he must not only train his own elite soldiers in a hundred battles, but also play the prestige of the Jiangdong army, so that other princes will face up to themselves and dare not fight Jiangdong's idea again.

……

"My lord has made up his mind!" Although it was a question, Zhang Zhao's tone was very affirmative, "It's just that in this way, I don't know how many families will be ruined." ”

"Every year, every year, the white silk, the image of troubled times, Ben Hou naturally doesn't want to. But as soldiers, this is their duty, otherwise, more people in Jiangdong will suffer from the troubled times. All Ben Hou could do was to appease their families after their deaths, so that they would not shed blood and tears. Zibu, you have to personally supervise the bereavement work, and those who dare to seek personal gain here will be killed. Speaking of the back, Liu Feng's voice was full of murderous aura.

"Don't worry, but if you have subordinates, you will never allow this to happen." Zhang Zhao said very solemnly.

Liu Feng nodded, he knew Zhang Zhao's character and would not exaggerate in this kind of matter.

Since the establishment of the army in Yizhou, Liu Feng's bereavement pensions for the dead and disabled soldiers have always been very generous. Although Jiangdong is not rich, such a large piece of territory is definitely a great wealth compared to Liu Feng personally. But Liu Feng only withdrew 10,000 gold from his fiefdom every month, and the rest was never used much, and it was spent on the construction of military pensions and people's livelihood, so he could get the support of the people in Jiangdong. Otherwise, with such relaxed conscription conditions in Jiangdong, how could anyone come to join the army one after another. You know, under the rule of other princes, even if it costs money to recruit an army to the system, the princes of all walks of life have to recruit the army semi-compulsorily, stipulating how many recruits a certain place must provide each year.

Therefore, as long as he grasps the hearts of the people of Jiangdong and gets their support, Liu Feng will have a strong backing, which is one of the reasons why he dared to go to war against Yuan Shu.

"The matter of food, grass and equipment will be arranged by Zibu, remember, don't be afraid to spend money, you must ensure the needs of the front-line soldiers, and the strangers who have always been good friends with us can also be used to do things for us." Liu Feng instructed, "As for those who stay behind......

Liu Feng pondered for a while, and his gaze turned to He Qi again: "Gongmiao ......"

"Lord, it's the turn of your subordinates to go on the expedition this time!" Before Liu Feng could speak, He Qi screamed.

He and Liu Feng have known each other for a long time, and they have always had a good relationship, and when they saw that Liu Feng was not officially ordered, they immediately rose up to fight for it.

"Hehe......" Liu Feng laughed dryly, hiding his embarrassment, "Don't worry, Gongmiao, even if I break my promise this time, I still have to come to the rear, so that I can fight with Yuan Highway with peace of mind." Next time, next time you will definitely lead the troops into battle. ”

"Subordinates receive orders." He Qi had no choice but to obey.

"On this expedition, Ben Hou still personally led the army to go, Bai Jian unified the army to fight, and the military division Xun You, starting with an army of three million in advance, directly attacked Jiujiang County." Liu Feng arranged, "Take Wu Yin as the Taishou of Lujiang and go to Shucheng to rectify the army." At the beginning of the war, it was the vanguard of the army, paving the way for the bridge and opening the way for the army. ”

"We have more than a month to prepare for the March march. This battle may take a long time, and everyone is ready. No matter how difficult it is, try not to affect people's lives. However, those who are in trouble from the rear will be severely punished. ”

Everyone nodded and signaled that they understood, and Liu Feng gave the order to disband.

It's just that before anyone left, he suddenly said: "There is also a piece of information, it is said that a special army has appeared under Yuan Shu's command, if it is on the battlefield, everyone will have some ideas." ”

Everyone was stunned at first, and then suddenly, seeing that Liu Feng had no intention of continuing to speak, most of them left one after another, leaving only a few people.
