Volume 2 The Rise of Jingzhou Chapter 328 - Liu Xie's Followers
"Jia Gong, do you think the Tiger Ben Army can contain the attack of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry..."
"Your Majesty, forgive me, old minister, you are not good at war..."Jia Xu's words were so groundless that Liu Xie, who listened to it, couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"If Jia Gong doesn't want to say it, then don't say it, am I still the kind of person who will persecute you?"
“.....”
Regarding this issue, Jia Xu was just silent, and he didn't want to go against his conscience and talk nonsense, let alone say something that Liu Xie didn't like to hear.
Like what.... Are you the kind of person who doesn't have points in your own heart?
Under Jia Xu's planning, Liu Xie has also accumulated a lot of power during this time, and it can even be said that he has accumulated a lot of surprises for Cao Mengde.
Among them, a tiger army that is enough to stand side by side with Yu Linwei is one of them....
Time back to two years ago, when Liu Xie was still in Jingzhou, although Jia Xu did not follow Liu Xie's side, he still helped Liu Xie preside over major events.
At the same time, I also had some discussions with Liu Xie... Discussion on the Han military system...
“.... Since Your Majesty has the heart of a Zhongxing Han, he must have extremely sharp minions.
My Han soldiers and horses have also been inside and outside, and they rarely meet opponents.
Now although the imperial court has gone through many hardships, but there is a chance to rise, if Your Majesty is willing to support with the grain of the Three Qins, the old ministers can train the real elite of the Han Dynasty for Your Majesty. ”
A letter from Jia Xu made Liu Xie's mood stir for several days.
He knew very well what the letter meant, that is, to evolve from a Tuntian soldier to a real soldier.
In other words, let some soldiers and horses no longer engage in farming and concentrate on the battlefield... In this way, of course, the pressure on the imperial court is much greater.
After all, these people must be really young and strong, and they have changed from farming to warriors, which means that there are fewer young people to cultivate under the rule of Sanqin.
At the same time, they have to train even when they are not fighting.
As a result, their daily consumption was more than double that of the original, and under the loss of one another, the imperial court was equivalent to the loss of three times the number of these people...
But even though he knew that there was such pressure, Liu Xie still settled this matter with a wave of his hand!
Not for anything else, just for the words that Liu Xie had heard....
It was many years ago, Liu Xie sighed that as the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he had no soldiers and horses in his hands.
The old Lingjun Zhao Yan told him about the military system at the peak of the Han Dynasty.
"Back then, when my Han Dynasty was at its most glorious, Guangluxun was responsible for leading Zhulang, and the guard was in charge of the guards, and as for the ruling Jinwu, he was the commander of the lieutenant pawn, and the three of them worked together to defend the security of the imperial city.
And responsible for the conquest and protection, there are two armies in the north and south in the Beijing division alone.
The Northern Army, which was jointly led by the lieutenant lieutenant of the middle base and the lieutenant of the Tun cavalry, the captain of the infantry, the captain of the Yue cavalry, and the captain of Changshui, was not only responsible for guarding the Beijing division to prevent outlaws.
It is even more possible to charge out at any time and exterminate all the rebels in the world!
In addition to the Northern Army, there was also the Southern Army Headquarters led by the Wei Wei, who was specifically responsible for guarding the Beijing Division.
The Nangong Guard Order and the Beigong Guard Order under his command must be brave people who are truly loyal to His Majesty, at least they must have the courage of ten thousand people.
Even the left and right princes have to have extraordinary skills.
In addition, it is also necessary for the generals such as Sima of the palace gate to be stationed at the palace gate, and they are not idle people, they must be selected from all over the country...
In addition, the city gate guards of the city gate captain are also carefully selected, and at least the uncle starts outside.
The cavalry patrol led by Jin Wu, Hu Ben Zhonglang will be under the jurisdiction of the left and right servants, the left and right Majesty will lead the Hu Benlang, and the Yulin Zhonglang will be under the jurisdiction of the Yulin Supervisor, and the cavalry captain will lead the Yulin Cavalry This is the pro-army around His Majesty!
Even now, Sanjulang, who has become a substitute cavalry general, was one of the most elite and main cavalry of the famous Han Dynasty back then.
Not to mention the eight captains of the West Garden set up by the first emperor, as well as the five battalions of the Northern Army that were integrated with them in the end...
The most important thing for the Han people back then was those who were loyal and daring to fight.
It's a pity that all of this needs to be accumulated little by little by Your Majesty...."
That was when Liu Xie was the most difficult, and Zhao Yan, who had just been promoted to Shang Shuling, gave him the most delicious flatbread.
Then Liu Xie had the hard work to go on.
And Jia Xu... It is on this piece of cake that gives Liu Xie the impulse and possibility to make it seriously.
Needless to say, the final result was that Liu Xie was almost left alone, leaving those thieves such as Lei Bo and Xue Zhou to Liu Bei.
But he didn't give Liu Bei these things for nothing.
Over the years, Liu Bei also needs to pay a lot of benefits and costs....
First, it is the grain and population that are most needed in the land of the Three Qins, and Liu Bei attacked Nanyang again and again, the purpose of which was to make a breakthrough in Nanyang.
Then, as before, a large number of people and grain were sent from the waterway to Hongnong or Guanzhong.
Then it was sent to the hands of the imperial court, and with enough youth and food, the imperial court could continue to develop.
The second is those talents, those who have fled to Jingzhou for many years... The people want to return to their hometowns, why don't these people who live in Jingzhou want to return to their hometowns?
Therefore, such as Fu Xun, some of the wealthy families in Guanzhong who fled into Jingzhou began to leave Jingzhou one after another.
Return to the land of Guanzhong, hoping to re-establish your family...
Over the years, Liu Xie and his Guanxiao court have really obtained a lot of available people, and they have also provided a lot of help for Jia Xu's training of soldiers and horses.
For example, the Yue cavalry battalion under Chen Gong belonged to the northern army with only one name, and the generals under Lu Bu at the beginning, such as Pang Shu, Cheng Lian and Wei Yue, were all subordinate to it.
And the other half, Lu Dai, a talented person snatched from Haidu, was also favored by Jia Xu, and then entrusted him with the important task of establishing today's Tiger Army!
The Yulin Army, the Tiger Army, and the Han Emperor's two pro-armies.
Even if everyone in the world now knows that this is different from what it used to be, the name is also enough to make people feel excited.
And Lu Dai, who was ordered to re-establish the Tiger Ben Camp, even risked his life to do this.
At this time, after hearing the order, Lu Dai immediately rushed over with his newly established Tiger Ben Battalion in the direction where Liu Xie was.
The distance between the two sides was originally not less, and it would take several days for the scouts to gallop, and the speed of Lu Dai with the army was not much different from the scouts.
It's just that even at such a speed, it is still almost impossible to catch up with the "rescue" of Liu Xie.
Two days after sending out scouts, Liu Xie, who was suspending the forbidden army and began to station to wait for news, finally got the news of the vanguard army on the other side.
"Zhang Xiu... Sure enough, he still got hit, even if I had already told him... Hey..."
After Liu Xie got the battle report of Zhang Xiu's department and asked for guilt, his face instantly became ugly.
Liu Xie's reminder message was half a day faster than the tiger and leopard riding, and it was only in this half a day that Zhang Xiu was prepared, and he did not fight with the other party head-on like Pang De.
He chose a terrain that was relatively favorable to him for garrison defense, and at the same time increased the intensity of the scouts.
Incidentally... Zhang Xiu and Ma Tie are here "behind the gate", although they don't believe in Liu Xiexin's ability to ride tigers and leopards, but they still want to give Liu Xie enough respect.
chose to give Liu Xie enough face, so he had to increase his defense.
It was this series of preparations that made Zhang Xiu not block it when facing the tiger and leopard cavalry charge, but he was not completely defeated.
The battle report said that Zhang Xiu and Ma Tie were both injured, and the soldiers under their command suffered heavy losses.
But at least their soldiers and horses can still be gathered, and at the same time, because of the timely response, this has kept the foundation of the army...
Of course... That still doesn't change the outcome of this one where they still lost big.
Even if they killed more than 100 tiger and leopard knights in the end and repelled them, it didn't change that after this battle, he couldn't continue to fight.
After Liu Xie heard the news, his whole face became very ugly.
But what made him even more uncomfortable was that after this incident... Liu Xie and Jia Xu both discovered the most fatal thing.
"There is a problem on both the left and right wings, so the next moment... I'm afraid the tiger and leopard riders are about to attack here! ”
Liu Xie understood this and guessed it.
On the other side, Jia Xu even determined the opponent's offensive method.
"From these two station reports, we can probably calculate the speed of this tiger and leopard ride.
And before that, Cao Zhen didn't move anymore after the attack.
Therefore, if Lao Chen's guess is correct, the tiger and leopard cavalry army will attack in a day at most.
At the same time, Cao Zhen will attack this place from the other side!
And Na Lejin has already reorganized the soldiers and horses, and it is not too far from Yecheng.
Cao Mengde's reinforcements will also come here.
It's just that I don't know who Cao Mengde will send this time...
Your Majesty, be careful! ”
“.... Well... I know that! Liu Xie nodded slowly, and then strengthened his barracks again.
At the same time, Hao Zhao and Gan Ning were both called in front of him, and then....
"This time, with Hao Zhao as the main general, he is fully responsible for the defense of this place!"
Liu Xie's order immediately made Na Gan Ning's face change greatly, but this time Liu Xie did not give him any chance to refute.
"At this time, Xingba, you don't have to say more, I have already decided.
Other than that... This battle... No one is allowed to make any mistakes!
Got it! ”
