Standing on a high mountain, Zhou Yu carefully observed the Yellow Turban Army below, and Zhang Mancheng's camp was set up in a place surrounded by mountains and rivers. In ancient times, camping also had some fixed doorways, in order to prevent the enemy from sneaking attack, they were generally selected on the edge of the water source, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is also important to choose the source of water, which is usually either dug in the right place or selected upstream of the water source to prevent people from cutting off the water source or poisoning. Speaking of terrain, it is a terrain that is slightly higher and can prevent enemy raids. However, the time to camp is also different from person to person, as long as it can play a defensive role, it is the best.

After controlling the terrain and water source in their own hands, the next thing to build is the camp wall, which needs to be made by two rows of wooden piles, one row high on the outside and one low row on the inside. Planks were placed between the inner row and the outer row, on which the soldiers could stand to defend the wall, and below where the guards could rest. The scale of the construction of the camp is determined according to the size of the camp army, and some places are subdivided into different camps according to the different types of troops, and such a camp is set up with two to four gates according to the need, and an empty field should be set aside after entering the gate, which is conducive to the assembly of troops. In the four corners of the camp and the four sides of the village and in the wall, it is necessary to build a number of watchtowers to observe the enemy's situation, and the distance between the watchtowers will not be too far, so that it will be convenient to reconnoiter the enemy situation and give early warning in time. Soldiers and horses did not move the grain and grass first, the war is not only the number of men and horses, but also the fight is the grain and grass, if there is no grain and grass even if the iron man will not be able to hold on, the grain and grass is the top priority of the march and war, the general grain and grass will be placed in the center of the camp, and then surrounded by grain trucks to form an inner village, in the vicinity of the grain and grass will be sent heavy guards, and will also be placed in order to prevent water and other fire extinguishing things.

The Chinese military tent, that is, the commander's tent, is generally set up in front of the grain and grass tun, and a large open space is needed in front of the Chinese military tent to gather the army to line up. Two flagpoles need to be set up in front of the Chinese military tent, one is used to hang the handsome flag, one is used to hang the signal flag or signal lantern, and two rows of weapon shelves will be set up to place some commonly used weapons. Within the camps, tents are set up separately according to the size of the army. Roads must be wide enough between the ministries to facilitate the build-up of troops. Sanitary facilities such as toilets are provided on the periphery of the camps of the ministries. Horse stables were set up outside the camp of the cavalry, which were used to house the horses. Outside the camp wall, one to several trenches need to be dug, and wooden piles and horse rejection piles can be set up between the trenches and the camp wall to facilitate defense.

Trees and thatch hundreds of meters outside the camp wall should be cut down to facilitate the detection of approaching enemies. At the same time, a number of braziers were set up in the open space outside the camp, which were lit at night to detect approaching enemies. Some will also dig some traps outside the camp tent, covering some branches and sand can also effectively defend against enemy raids. It is strictly forbidden to make noise and gallop horses in the camp. After camping, the sergeants of each department can only stay in their own camp and are not allowed to move around at will. In case spies and enemy troops attack the camp.

If a tent can accommodate 30 to 50 people, then there are dense tents all over the ground, and Zhou Yu's rough count does have 70,000 or 80,000 horses, which may only be a lot more. The position chosen by Zhang Mancheng is 500 meters away from the high mountain, if they successfully capture Nanyang, they can dominate Nanyang County and directly threaten the direction of Luoyang, even if they can't beat it, they can retreat into the deep mountains at a distance of 500 meters. The water source is a mountain spring on the high mountain, and it is almost impossible to climb to the mountain to cut off the water source, because the momentum of the mountain belongs to the cliff, and ordinary people can't go up at all, so there is no need to consider the water source being cut off. His Dazhai is also a mile away from Nanyang City, saying that Nanyang County is surrounded by water, in fact, it is just to let the horses guard outside the city gate, so that the people in the city want to escape from the city gate It is almost impossible, and they want to escape from other parts of the city wall, but people have always walked smoothly through the door, and if you jump out of the window at once, no one can get out of this strange circle at once, and can only shrink in Nanyang City and wait for help.

To be honest, Zhang Mancheng can be regarded as having read the military book for a few days, and with Zhang Jiao's careful teaching, he can inherit half of Zhang Jiao's mantle, otherwise he would not have become a divine envoy. Zhou Yu looked at it for a long time and felt that this ancient camp was indeed shabby, and if he was allowed to charge into battle with a troop, it would really be vulnerable. He pointed to Zhang Mancheng's camp and let Dian Wei and Zhou An see: "You see that Zhang Mancheng's camp looks quite bluffing, but it is really chaotic, and there is not even a team of people patrolling and maintaining law and order?" Once these soldiers mutinied, there was no time to deal with it. If you are asked to break Zhang Mancheng's Dazhai, how many soldiers and horses do you need? What can be done to reduce the casualties on your side? ”

Brainstorming, although Zhou Yu surpassed them in the knowledge in his head, it was not necessarily the best way for him. During the Three Kingdoms period, there were many capable generals, and he needed to train his subordinates to progress all the time, even if they couldn't become any wise generals, they had to make them become fierce generals with brains. Now he is more and more aware that Zhou An is developing in the direction of a fierce general, and the strength and speed of the big knife are constantly improving, but he only likes to punch and rush. In order not to make Zhang Mancheng suspicious, they hid all the things they carried with them that could reveal their identities in a secret place, and only stayed at the foot of the mountain with twenty large boxes and some ordinary knives and guns.

"Well, looking at the quality of this camp and its armaments and soldiers, I only need 2,000 elite soldiers to come and go freely in this camp! It's easy to break his battalion—" Dian Wei could see that most of the Yellow Turban Army's equipment was made of wood, and there were very few iron weapons, and the soldiers inside were all lazy and lazy. and he had come into contact with the Yellow Turban Army before, and he thought that the troops of the Yellow Turban Army were like chickens and dogs in his eyes, and he didn't need to think about anything at all.

"Young Master, I think that if we want to go to the best place to break his camp is here, from this place to attack less than a hundred meters away to reach the place where they store food, only need to set fire to the enemy's grain and grass, so many troops will eat and drink every day will be a terrifying number. The Yellow Turbans' battalion was well defended, but it was full of holes, and if I had the choice, it would have been to sneak in at night and set it on fire. Exchange the smallest price for the greatest victory - there is also a little young master, shouldn't we think about retreating? Once the matter is revealed, I think it is safest to fight in the direction of Nanyang City. ”

Zhou An's words really impressed Zhou Yu, and he didn't see this kid reading every day, just pestering Dian Wei to practice martial arts and polish his strength. What I can think of is a sneak attack, as well as thinking about the way back for myself, it seems that it is still worth cultivating, maybe he can become not only a caring follower, but more importantly, he must become his own right-hand man. Dian Wei is a fierce attack, Zhou An is a sword to go sideways, but he can still have a relationship with Dian Wei, and it seems that the two will be a good choice in the future.

"You kid has been learning from me for so long, and your courage is small when you see martial arts! Gong Jin's kung fu is now about to be equal to mine, and it is easy for the three of us to join forces to break this big camp! Listening to Zhou An's words, Dian Wei looked at this kid with some disdain, he has made rapid progress in the past few days, basically his control of strength and skills have been mastered, and the rest is to grow up in battle. It's just that this kid has a lively mind, and he has a ghost mind in the war.

"Haha-Zhou An, it seems that I have grown a lot, so I have time to accompany the young master to practice. You can do it! But keep in mind that the battlefield is constantly changing, and no one knows what's going to happen in the next second, so it's important to be prepared and adaptable, so you just need to watch more and talk less! Zhang Mancheng has some cleverness, but looking at the people he has trained, I am even more determined that it is best to treat him as a scapegoat, anyway, he will not die for a while. Let's go—I'm going to send someone to deliver the letter, just say that his little uncle has arrived, and come out quickly to greet him! ”
