The population of Dongwei is already limited, and Zhou Shaoyu is not a local force, so the matter of recruiting troops and horses to form a mercenary army can only be carried out secretly.

It's just that time is running out, leaving Akechi Guangxiu to continue recruiting in Dongwa, and Zhou Shaoyu decided to personally lead the team to Silla for a while.

The sea ship for transportation had already been prepared, and Sister Uesugi not only sent it in person, but also allocated an additional 1,000 people to Zhou Shaoyu's command. Zhou Shaoyu knew that when he turned around, he would directly hand over the thousand people to Zhijiang and continue to be in charge, and if it was not necessary, he would not let them rush to the front line.

In addition, Zhou Shaoyu's own command also transferred 500 people from Tamluo Island to prepare to go to Silla to rendezvous, which is used to be an overseer, and by the way, the experience increases, not directly to fight, Zhou Shaoyu intends to be trained as a middle and low-level general, and the general of this overseer team is Qiu Mingyuan.

Originally, Zhou Zaixing took the initiative to ask for his life, but after thinking about it, he finally sent him back to Xiangzhou in the south. First, the situation in the south has changed, and reliable and competent helpers are needed. On the other hand, Zhou Zaixing has already been married, and even has children, so it is too unparticular to let people stay outside and not meet their families.

In this way, a total of 6,500 people landed in Silla as the first wave of reinforcements to support Silla.

At this point, it is difficult to conceal people from such a big move, and although the Daliang garrison has withdrawn, it still leaves a certain number of spies to maintain information exchanges. Gao Yuyao was very happy now, regardless of Zhou Shaoyu's true loyalty or false loyalty, it was most appropriate for his energy to be involved outside.

The only thing that is more speechless is his strange division of territory.

is still the same sentence, if you change people, this kind of enclave is like territory, and it will be out of control a long time ago, even if the Liang is unified, the imperial power's control over the border land is weak, not to mention that the north and the south are separated. But there is no way, who makes the wives and concubines of the people too powerful.

This also caused that even if Zhou Shaoyu's energy was restrained, he could still mix in the situation in the world, and Xiangzhou was still stable. In addition, because of the strengthening of the control of Dongyue Prefecture, it is also the information of Wednesday Mountain, Wednesday Mountain, isn't this Zhou Shaoyu's third uncle, how could Gao Yuyao not pay attention, this alone has proved Zhou Shaoyu's ambition, and he actually laid out everywhere early.

Even Gao Yuyao couldn't help but think, could it be that Lao Shizi Ange was actually Zhou Shaoyu's deliberate arrangement? Of course, it is unlikely, An Ge and Xiao jointly seized Sun Shouren's garrison and troops, and Sun Shouren served Xiangzhou, if An Ge is really Zhou Shaoyu's people, why do you want to give those people away.

On the day when Zhou Shaoyu set foot on the land of Silla again, Xiao Qi's soldiers were 30,000 as the vanguard, 60,000 for the Chinese army, 30,000 for the rear army, plus nearly 100,000 auxiliary army young and strong logistics, and the mighty Xiangyang City, known as 300,000, sent troops to Jiangxia.

In addition to the foot soldiers, there are also sailors who are also dispatched, originally there were only thousands of sailors under Xiao's command, after capturing Sun Shouren's troops, he selected some experienced soldiers to become sailors, and gathered 10,000.

This battle is destined to attract the attention of the world.

Even if Gao Yuyao had decreed the abolition of Xiao's princess position to the world before, it was still not as direct as direct combat, which was equivalent to completely tearing the mask and being completely hostile.

And the latest issue of Jinling's Daliang Di newspaper directly announced that the reason why Xiao is a good princess is unwilling to do it is because he is so ambitious that he wants to sit on the emperor's throne and ascend the throne as the emperor. No matter what Xiao thinks, anyway, people who don't know it believe it, otherwise how to explain it? Princess, how comfortable, you can't do it and want to rebel, what is it if you don't want to be an empress.

Xiao Hao attacked vigorously, and Jiangxia had already prepared, and the 50,000 troops stationed in the city were absolutely sufficient in terms of defense.

However, in Sun Shangxiang's opinion, although this battle has not yet started, how can you feel awkward when you look at it.

Just kidding, it's Jiang Xia there, does Jiang Xia understand? Fighting in such a place, except for Xiao Youyou's 10,000 sailors, there is no single piece of wood on the river, you say it's strange.

For example, in the Battle of Jiangxia, Sun Quanjun fought against Huang Zujun, Lou Chuan, Fu Chong, Mao Tu, Fighting Ship, Da Fang, Walking Boat, Scout, Yacht, Sea Falcon, Red Horse Boat, ...... There are many kinds of warships, countless tactics, on the rivers, throwing stones, ballistas, fire arrows, arrow rain, collision, making people's blood boil.

The result? The battle in Jiangxia and other places is a battle against a waterless division!

But it's really tickling. Sun Shangxiang thought so. But it doesn't matter if there are no sailors, at least it would be much easier for her to send ships over to spy on information. As for saying that the area around Yunmengze is Sun Yu'ange's territory, it is not a big problem.

Not to mention whether An Ge dares to be an enemy of Xiangzhou at present, even if she dares, her main energy at the moment is to maintain the stability of the Youjiang Estuary, and she will inevitably gather heavy troops here, so that the troops in Yunmengze will naturally be much less.

For a time, one scout, yacht after another, and boats were dispatched to Dayue City. The first two are scout ships, which are specially used to detect military intelligence, come and go freely, and return to the army to change formations, and they are as fast as flying. The latter is also known for its speed, heavy mast (mast) sails, full of power, and the boatmen are selected from the elite of the army, although it is not the main force in frontal combat, but it is the best ship to make up for the shortcomings.

Warships are never single, and all kinds of ships can only exert the highest combat power with the cooperation of various ships, but unfortunately, after a long time of training, after all, it has not yet reached the time to unsheath, in this regard, Sun Shangxiang can only continue to wait, there is always a time for meritorious service.

"What do you think of me as a sailor?" Sun Shangxiang looked at the big banner of Sun Zi fluttering not far away, and asked. It's just that the expression is a little weird, because the object of questioning is also surnamed Sun.

"It's starting to take shape, but it still needs to be practiced." Sun Shouren told the truth, after a period of contact, Sun Shouren is also used to the style of acting here, sometimes he does have to be polite and tactful, but some aspects are not used, everything is pragmatic.

"Yes." Sun Shangxiang thought so. It was true that he had gone deep into Yunmengze to clear out the water invaders before, but the combat experience was still less after all.

looked at Sun Shouren again, and Sun Shangxiang felt that this person was actually delayed and misunderstood.

Think about it, Sun Shouren, as the general of Zhennan, has been in Jingzhou for generations. The land of Jingzhou has always been dominated by water warfare.

And what about Sun Shouren? At first, they all traveled all the way to the north to meet the Turks. And what is the fighting style of the Turks? Cavalry, cavalry, and charge, the difference in combat style is not a star and a half. Let a general who is more inclined to the sailor to fight a land battle, it is actually not bad to have a record like Sun Shouren, in the final analysis, this should have been the matter of the two major generals' mansions in Zhenxi and Zhenbei.

In the land of Jingzhou, the sailors were mainly concentrated in Jiangxia, and at first they were basically controlled by his younger brother Sun Shouyi. After Sun Shouyi's death, Sun Shouren took over. But it was impossible for Sun Shouren to leave Xiangyang and run to Jiangxia without moving. Bisheng came out with an ange again, coaxing Sun Yu to seize Jiangxia's military power, and almost in an instant, there was not much left of Sun Shouren's sailor.

If not, if Sun Shouren is really given a strong enough water division, although he is not familiar with the terrain of the Yunmengze area because of the long time, it is still stronger than the current situation.

From this point of view, Sun Shouren can really be said to be an all-rounder. can lead foot soldiers, can command cavalry, and is good at sailors, this kind of talent is not easy to find.

However, at present, the specific arrangement of Sun Shouren is still being discussed, but it is easy to chill people if he drags it all the time, and it may make him feel ostracized and suspicious. So he simply asked him to take a look around, learn more about it, and when Yuecheng was done, he would have to go to Qianzhou to take a look at the team led by Liang Hongyu over there, such a non-secret approach also showed his trust and attention.

Different wars, different feelings. As far as the Jiangxia offensive and defensive battle at the moment is concerned, it is probably boring and dull.

Xiao will not carry out a strong attack, even if the current force is greatly increased, he will not send it up at will to be killed or wounded, basically it is a catapult throwing stones, suppressing the well fence, rushing the car to find a way to get close to the door, everything is in order. In essence, this is the most common style, the so-called surprise victory, after all, a minority. Xiao is not in a hurry, the inland water division of Daliang has not yet been fully formed, and it has not formed an effective combat force.

In other words, if the garrisons of other cities want to come to support, they basically can't take the waterway, so it is not difficult to be prepared. I can't say that I can still surround the point to send reinforcements, and when the grain and grass are sufficient, it can be slowly consumed, and no matter how thick the city wall is, there will eventually be a time to collapse.

On the other side, the Silla battlefield is a different picture.

Zhou Shaoyu has 6,500 people, 500 of whom are trained for the preparation of middle and low-level officers, and they are only used for overseers, and the 1,000 given by Sister Uesugi will not really fight a tough battle. Then naturally only five thousand people will be able to really go into battle.

Although it's not your own people who don't feel distressed, it's not something that can be consumed at will, and it's not easy to replenish it.

The 500 overseers under his command began to recruit displaced people as soon as possible, and this is the most important thing in Silla at the moment, although the queen of Silla began to implement the tuntian system, but at present, it is only laid out in the southwest zone, and Zhou Shaoyu is landing in the southeast.

Since it is preparing to cultivate, it is the best way to train soldiers and horses in person, after all, it is not their own people, and it is okay if the training is bad, and it is a good time to increase experience. And if you train it, you can also contribute to the fight against the Jin country, after all, it is impossible for the current Silla people to directly go to war, if you really do this, believe it or not, as soon as you go into battle, you have to run when you see the enemy?

So in the short term, Zhou Shaoyu only had 5,000 to contain the enemy's footsteps.

As far as the current military situation is concerned, the Jin army in Silla is only 5,000, but the Silla Liukou army supported by it is more than 100,000. In this way, the small number of people is an advantage.

According to Sister Uesugi's meaning, she is going to train her Naoe and continue, and Zhou Shaoyu also wants to see how he is able when he is still a teenager. I didn't discuss it much, and after finding out the information of a bunch of enemy soldiers and horses, I had to take the school exam.

"According to the report from the scout, there are more than 10,000 Liukou troops stationed at the mouth of the valley fifty miles ahead, this valley is a north-south artery, if we don't go here, we can only go over the mountains and mountains, or go around a hundred miles, we must find a way to solve it, if this battle is handed over to you to be responsible, how to deal with it?" Zhou Shaoyu asked with interest, and at the same time pointed to the simple map drawn by the scout on the table.

Naoe Kaneji has already had the first battle experience, and he has been on the battlefield to cut people, but he has the opportunity to experience the taste of a general, and he is naturally very interested and excited. And Qiu Mingyuan on the side also looked at the map with great interest and thought about countermeasures, as for Zhizhi Guangxiu, he knelt beside him with a serious face and didn't move.

"I thought I should use this as my main battle." Naoe pointed to a mountain area on the map.

Qiu Mingyuan nodded, just based on the terrain, this is definitely the best place to defend near Taniguchi, if you use this as a battlefield, send people to lure the enemy army to chase here, and strike at ease, but in fact, it is not necessary. Because in this way, even if you win, it is estimated that your own casualties will not be too small.

The word "honjin" is a special word for the eastern war, which means the location of the headquarters of the general at this time. They all come to this set of battles, and where the general is located, they must set up screens and put tables and stools on them, which is for their own formation, controlling the overall situation and commanding the whole army.

To be honest, Zhou Shaoyu feels that it is still a bit stupid, and there are natural benefits to doing this. The presence of this formation means that the commander-in-chief is fine, and he is still sitting there, watching the soldiers fight, which is still very effective in boosting morale. But on another level, the mobility is too far behind, and sometimes it can even be described as rigid.

How many battles in the East were all caused by surprise attacks or something, breaking through the formation, attacking and killing the general general, resulting in defeat?

Obviously, Naoe, who is an absolute native of the Eastern Wa, also continued this point, and immediately considered the place where the camp was established. Although Qiu Mingyuan agrees that this position is good, he does not understand exactly the same meaning, Qiu Mingyuan purely thinks that this place can be relied on.

"Okay, then for you, set up this formation here." Zhou Shaoyu didn't wait for Naoe to finish speaking, so he smiled and clapped. "If an enemy army comes, it's up to you to be a hero."

"Hey ......!" Naoe continued to be overjoyed, thinking that he was recognized.

And then...... Naoe continued to set up his 1,000-man army to defend here, but Zhou Shaoyu took other actions.

"If there are more than 10,000 gold people stationed at Taniguchi, I won't use thousands of soldiers and horses to provoke the tiger's whiskers anyway, but more than 10,000 Silla Liukou, but Er'er." Zhou Shaoyu smiled at Qiu Mingyuan easily, and on the road at this time, there were no five thousand mercenaries behind him, only dozens of strong archers left and right.
