Chapter 18: Conquering the Vine Army
Chapter 18 Conquering the Vine Armor Army
As mentioned last time, Liu Hou said that he could also defeat the vultures, and the vultures said:
"I don't believe it, unless you fight me, but it's only fair until the injury on my foot heals." It seems that the vulture bone is not too stupid, and he is not impulsive enough to take the injury and Liu Hou to do it.
"No, no need to fight, I'll show you."
"How can you see that your Han people's martial arts are all fancy, they look good, but in fact, it's useless to really fight."
"You can see for sure, I just have to try to show you that you can beat me. I tell you a secret, my master is an immortal, he taught me the Five Thunder Dharma, do you know what the Thunder Dharma is? Just like the thunder of the thunder god in the sky, it can make a rumbling sound, and it can blast something that blocks me to pieces. ”
"Hmph, you brag, how could you be Leifa."
"Okay, I'll show you." After speaking, Liu Houren's soldiers helped the vulture bones up, and then asked people to lay some stones 50 meters away from them, and then asked someone to push a cannon, a cannon that had been loaded with ammunition.
Liu Hou came behind the cannon and manipulated the cannon Zhu Yuan to aim. Because the target is very large and the distance is also very close, Liu Hou, who usually rarely fires guns, also hit the target at once.
The vulture only heard a "boom" in the near distance, and then a "boom" in the distant pile of stones, which had been torn apart and scattered in all directions. Obviously, this time Liu Hou used a flowering bomb to cause this kind of explosion effect flying around, which is more shocking.
The vultures were dumbfounded, speechless. What kind of magic is this? Could it really be that Lei Fa can't do it? Whether it was Leifa or not, but he knew that if he changed himself to this pile of stones, he would definitely not be able to stop such a bombardment. No wonder this little doll said that she knew at a glance whether she could win the fight or not, such a power that even a fool could see, and it was impossible to resist it with flesh and blood.
"How's that, see? Do you think you can withstand the bombardment of this divine thunder? Liu Hou asked.
"This ...... What the hell is this, what the hell is this? So powerful? But this can only mean that this thing is powerful, it's not that you're strong, you try not to use this thing to fight with me, if you don't rely on these foreign objects, you're definitely not my opponent. The vultures pointed at the cannon.
Liu Hou didn't expect that this vulture bone would grasp the essence of things at once, which made him wonder if the vulture bone was really stupid or wise.
"This is my weapon, how can it be said that it is not a strong part of me? Just like your rattan armor, if you didn't have rattan armor, would your combat power be that strong? Isn't the rattan armor a foreign object? Then why do you still wear rattan armor to fight? How many tricks do you think you can make under our Fourth Uncle Zhao without wearing rattan armor? After all, you are also relying on external objects to become stronger, what is the difference between me using this weapon? ”
"This ......" The vulture bones were also speechless, yes, they also relied on foreign objects to become so powerful, if they didn't wear rattan armor, they would be disemboweled by Zhao Yun in the second move, where could they fight with Zhao Yun for five hundred moves.
"Forget it, whether you admit that I am better than you or not, in short, you have to be obedient, whether you want to submit to my fourth uncle or to me, you choose for yourself. If you submit to my fourth uncle, you will be a junior general under him, and if you submit to me, you can be the same as my fourth uncle, and be a general under me. You choose, manly man, you are willing to gamble and lose, you will not be a person who can't afford to lose, right? ”
"Of course I'm a big general, how can I be a young general." The vultures are eagerly authentic.
"Haha, that's not the end of it." Liu Hou laughed happily.
"But I don't want to submit to you little hairy boy." The vulture bone is weak and authentic.
"You ......" Liu Hou was angry with him. Okay, good, good fool, then you can be a young general under my fourth uncle. ”
"I said that I am a general, not a young general."
"Willing to gamble and lose!"
"......" vulture's face turned red, and this time he really had nothing to say.
Liu Hou ordered someone to call the doctor who accompanied the army to treat the foot injury of the vulture bone, and the doctor put medicine on his foot and put a splint on his foot after dividing it by two in three times.
Liu Hou then had the vulture bone lifted onto a large basket and hoisted him back into the valley, telling him to inform the Tengjia Army to disarm and accept the reorganization. At the same time, several low-ranking officers were also hung down to assist the vulture bone reorganization team.
Since it is difficult to dig through the passage in a short period of time, it is also very inconvenient to hang back and forth, so Liu Hou asked people to put a few ladders on the stone pile blocking the entrance, so that people can climb to the top of the stone pile through the guò ladder, and put a ladder on the other side of the stone pile, so that people can go down to the valley. In this way, a temporary traffic channel was erected.
The first step in the reorganization of the rattan armor was to disarm them. The officers who went in to assist the vultures had them all remove their rattan armor and pass it along with their weapons through the makeshift passage of communication in Guò. Without these rattan armor and weapons to rely on, the rattan armor army would become a toothless tiger.
The vulture bone is also a person who does what he says, although the whole army is very reluctant to take off this rattan armor that can give them a sense of security, but under the pressure of the vulture bone, the work is still completed quickly. Maybe the vulture also knows that if they don't cooperate well, it will be difficult for them to escape.
It was not easy for the weapons and armor of 20,000 or 30,000 people to pass through these wooden ladders, and it took more than ten minutes to unload the armor, and this transportation process lasted until the next day, during which the transportation did not stop even at night.
Liu Hou handed over the rattan armor and weapons passed on to the baggage team to collect, and they were responsible for unified transportation, and in the future, this model was in place, and the rattan armor was no longer carried by the combat troops, and it was only temporarily issued to them to wear when they needed it, and they were taken off immediately after use, and handed over to the specific baggage team for safekeeping and transportation. In this way, it is possible to strengthen the control of the Fujijia army.
Also, these rattan armors don't need to be used with any skills, it simply increases the protective power, so they can be used by allocating them to any troops, in Liu Hou's thoughts, these rattan armors will not necessarily be given to the original barbarian rattan armor in the future, and it is also good to give their own descendants.
It's just that this problem of fear of fire is to find a way to solve it, and it seems that my research institute has something to do again.
After the weapons and rattan armor were passed out, the rattan armor army was no longer a threat, and under the supervision of the Shu army, they also went out through those wooden ladders. Because of the submission of the vulture bones, Liu Hou was not worried about their rebellion, so he did not tie them up first as he had done with the captives in the past.
On the contrary, Liu Hou also had food prepared for these barbarians who had been hungry in the valley for a day. At this point, 30,000 rattan armor soldiers were incorporated into Liu Hou's expeditionary force, and his strength increased to 110,000 (minus the 20,000 lost by the Gaoding Division), and the materials captured by the vine armor army in the early stage were returned to the Shu army.
There was no time to stop and reorganize the troops, so Liu Hou had to order the camp to be pulled out and reorganized, and the army was reorganized while marching. Liu Hou promoted many veterans who went to Jingzhou with him to low-level officers and incorporated them into these units, so that he could control these troops in accordance with him.
Gao Ding was still the poor pioneer, because there were only a little more than 10,000 people left in his army, and Liu Hou gradually eliminated some of the weaker personnel in the process of reorganizing the troops and threw them to Gao Ding, so that his troops gradually gathered enough 20,000 people.
To Liu Hou's surprise, there were no more encounters with Meng Huo's barbarian army along the way, and the Shu army crossed the peach blossom water smoothly and arrived at Zhuti County. There were no defenders in Zhuti County, and it seems that Meng Shu took the initiative to give up this place and give up the county town of Zhuti to the Shu army.
Liu Hou led the army into the county seat of Zhuti, and he decided to stay here, first reorganize the troops, and see the situation. Of course, Ke County still has to go, where is there a Zhu Bao. Liu Hou sent Gao Ding to deal with Zhu Bao alone, and instructed him to give priority to the means of surrender.
Gao Ding had seen the terrifying combat power of the Shu army and believed that he would not dare to rebel again. At the same time, Liu Hou sent out a large number of scouts and spies to inquire about Meng Huo and his barbarian army, many of whom were local barbarians who had surrendered and were familiar with the local situation.
Gao Ding's work was carried out very smoothly, and he was already familiar with Zhu Bao, so it was easy to meet Zhu Bao after arriving in Qike County. Gao Ding and Zhu Bao talked openly and honestly, and Zhu Bao learned that Gao Ding's treatment in the Shu army, although he could only be a general, he was still not treated as a general who specialized in hard work, and he was far less comfortable than being a king who was alone, but he managed to save his life.
Gao Ding told him in detail about the combat effectiveness of the Shu army and all kinds of incredibles, so that Zhu Bao understood that the Shu army was really not something he could resist. At the same time, Gao Ding also focused on Yonghong's tragic death, which made Zhu Bao tremble when he heard it.
In addition, several people who started the incident together at that time, the main culprit Yonghong is dead, the accomplice Gao Ding has surrendered, and the other main culprit Meng Shu is nowhere to be found, and he can no longer give him any support.
But there is a way to live, no one wants to die, especially Zhu Bao, a character who can be instigated by others to rebel, and he cares more about his own life, so under Gao Ding's persuasion, he also surrendered to Shu Han again.
And Liu Hou, who had been waiting for news in Zhuti County, did not wait for the good news of Zhu Bao's surrender, but waited for a bad news. There was no trace of Meng Shu and his barbarians, and the only explanation was that they had dispersed, escaped into the mountains and forests, or returned to their stockades. This is the last thing Liu Hou wants to see.
Liu Hou has always believed that it is best for these barbarians to get together, and they can gather and annihilate them, and the battle will be decided. If they were scattered in the vast mountains and forests, hidden in the depths of the 100,000 mountains, how could he exterminate them?
Not to mention that they may not be able to find them, and even if they do, how many people will they lose if they fight in the jungle? And these people are scattered and scattered, one village after another, hole by hole, how much time does it take? Ten years or decades? How can I spend so much time here, the flower world of the Central Plains is still waiting for me to conquer.
