Four hundred and fortieth chapters review trapped camp
Liu Xiang's prediction was good. On August 20th, the disarmament was completed, with more than 80,000 soldiers eliminated, leaving 40,000 soldiers, and 1,500 soldiers selected by Gao Shun to fall into the camp.
He planned to lead people to inspect the surrendering camp first, and then decide on the leader of the army who would surrender.
The purpose is to use the guard camp to establish prestige and deter the generals from surrendering.
The newly formed army's trapped camp lacked a tacit understanding and could not be a match for the soldiers in the guard camp. This caused a misunderstanding in the mind. The elite selected from among 120,000 people were still no match for the soldiers in the center.
This is a fair competition of equal numbers, and the effect must be good.
In this way, those people can be made more honest and can be easily controlled.
At noon, Liu Xiang took Cao Cao, Liu Biao, Zhang Xun and their subordinates, a total of more than 30 people, surrounded by Su Wei, to the high platform of the school ground.
There are two battalions of 3,000 people under the stage, divided into two formations, wearing iron armor, holding heavy shields and wooden poles, facing each other on the left and right.
Without long-range weapons, it is easy to kill people when playing, it is a head-on confrontation between soldiers.
The square formation of the guard camp is rigorous, shoulder to elbow, steady and heavy.
The soldiers trapped in the camp are all tall and strong, but the formations they put out are hard to see. They are square or not, round or not, some are convex and some are concave, just like a soft dough. From time to time, laughter and shouts can be heard in the formation.
Scolding, roaring sound.
They are all arrogant people who can fight, and no one will obey anyone.
Gao Shun felt so ashamed that he wanted to jump off the high platform and beat these heartless fools to death. "General, you can't show any dignity when reviewing."
Liu Xiang smiled secretly and said unconcernedly: "Let's get started."
The drums sounded on both sides of the high platform, the flags were waved, and the soldiers of the two battalions faced each other. The speed of the guard camp was obviously much slower, and the formation remained intact, advancing in accordance with the drumbeats.
The enemy camp on the opposite side has already increased its speed. The soldiers are screaming and charging forward. Each one is running faster than the other, and each one is shouting more happily than the other. They are just like the huskies having fun. The momentum is not small, but the formation is completely broken up.
Is this going to be a fight right from the start?
Do you want to maximize your strengths and avoid weaknesses, or are you just being stubborn?
Liu Xiang felt that it didn't matter. He had to say that he was in good spirits, which was worthy of praise.
The two camps collided, like waves hitting a dam or eggs hitting rocks. The sound was really loud. The sound of clanging iron shields and the banging of wooden poles were also mixed with shouts of pain and curses.
, the curse words shouted in various dialects were incomprehensible.
But as soon as the battle started, the trapped camp collapsed.
Gao Shun clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth, his face was red, and veins popped out on his temples. Damn it, this was so embarrassing.
Fortunately, no one escaped. They got up and continued to fight. They were still fighting around the phalanx of the military camp. The long poles of the two camps were densely packed with each other, stabbing and beating each other, and the iron shields were colliding and squeezing, almost causing sparks to appear.
Because there is no sharp blade, it is not easy to reduce the number of people.
Liu Xiang didn't want to use the method of staining the wooden pole with lime. It was too childish. It was like a child playing house. The purpose of this confrontation was to win.
Put on armor, hold an iron shield, hold a wooden pole, beat until you give in, beat until you can't get up, and use white lime to fool people. What's the matter? He is not a person who doesn't know how to fight. That's not how to train a strong soldier.
The trapped camp surrounded the guard camp in a chaotic manner and attacked nearly a stick of incense. The excitement finally passed and their strength weakened. They all wanted to slow down and take a breather. Unfortunately, the soldiers in the guard camp did not want to let them go and took advantage of the opponent's attack to slow down.
, rushed forward suddenly, attacking from all sides.
The soldiers trapped in the camp have no tacit understanding. They attack in a swarm, with no rotation at all, and no rhythm. They relax and retreat. The flaw is too big. The opponent moves forward, and it doesn't take much effort to disperse the crowd, complete the cut, and then easily
Eat them one bite at a time.
This is the importance of formation. Scattered soldiers cannot be twisted into a rope, the attack has no focus, the defense has no depth, and it is not lasting.
In fact, the outcome of the battle has already been decided at this point. The trapped camp cannot stop the counterattack of the soldiers from the guard camp, but there are still many people who are unwilling to give up. They are just fighting in a sparse manner, divided and surrounded, and it is difficult to save the overall situation.
This military exercise lasted for more than half an hour and ended with a complete victory for the military camp.
Although the trapped camp lost, their fighting spirit is still good. They have just formed an army and have not undergone rigorous training. How can they be expected to follow orders and prohibitions, have a tight formation, and use their fingers like arms? It is not bad to be able to take the initiative to charge and fight for such a long time.
Now that we have achieved this step, we can no longer ask for more.
He didn't shrink into a ball, but dispersed as soon as he was rushed, which was beyond Liu Xiang's expectations.
The soldiers trapped in the camp were selected from an army of 120,000 and should perform better, but we also have to see who their opponents are?
The sergeants of the Central Military Commission have been bloody for eight years. They have gone through so many battles and been eliminated and replaced so many times that they can no longer be counted. It is an exaggeration to say that they were selected from tens of millions of people. But to say that they are
It’s no exaggeration to say that it’s one of the best.
They are all top-notch people, why should they be defeated if they are trapped in the camp?
It's really good to have such a performance.
"Gao Shun, the trapped camp at this time is just a piece of loose sand. It still needs rigorous training and cannot be relaxed."
"Wei." Gao Shun was very angry and dissatisfied throughout the whole process. He was showing off his personal bravery and only saw that he was fighting on his own without any cooperation at all. He really needed to train well.
Cao Cao, Liu Biao and others who were watching together were a little shocked. The top men selected from 120,000 people were extremely brave. Although they did not form a formation and cooperated, they could be easily defeated by the same number of Anping Army infantry. This shows that Liu
The elite of the hussars' soldiers.
The one that I and others had to face before was so fierce. Fortunately, I surrendered. Otherwise, I would have passed the first seven by now.
While they were still sighing, Liu Xiang began to name them: "Zhang Xun, Cai Mao, Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren."
"The general is here." The four people did not dare to neglect and hurriedly responded.
"We selected 40,000 elites from the 120,000-strong army for the purpose of the Western Expedition, to pacify Liangzhou, and to frighten the thirty-six countries in the Western Region, so we named it the Expeditionary Army. The five of you will be promoted to partial generals.
It is temporarily under my command, and when General Zhengxi takes office, it will be placed under his jurisdiction."
"The general will obey the order." Several people had their own thoughts, but no one dared to disobey the order.
Liu Xiang turned his head and glanced at Cao Cao. The generals he wanted to conquer the west were Sun Wentai and Cao Mengde. He had not yet decided who to choose as general among them. He needed to observe again.
"Kui Liang."
"The official is here."
"You are ordered to be the military advisor of the Western Conquest Army. Are you willing to submit?"
"I am willing to do the work of dogs and horses." Kuai Liang said, do I dare to refuse?
"Go back to the camp and prepare. We will leave the camp at midnight tomorrow and follow me on the westward expedition."
"only."
Everyone resigned and dispersed.
Liu Biaohui took his retainers and staff to Ye County to take up posts, establish the Imperial College, and promote elementary education.
Cao Cao's current official position is Henan Yin, but the surrounding area of Luoyang is almost a no-man's land. There are no people and no money. The reconstruction of Luoyang cannot be started at all. He knows in his heart that he will stay with Liu Xiang for a while.
.
His original subordinates, Zaodi and Han Hao, were recruited as dianong and were placed under the jurisdiction of Fan Xian, the general of dianong.
The farming in Runan was put under the control of Guan Yu.
In fact, this group of people was originally scheduled to go to Luoyang, but the Sanfu War was about to happen. Liu Xiang didn't want Cao Cao's people to stay near the supply line from Jizhou to Hedong, even the old and weak, so he temporarily stationed in Runan.
Monitored by Guan Yu.
After the army retreated, 10,000 people from the front army and 10,000 from the Jizhou Army stayed behind in Runan. Nearby were Guo Dian's 20,000 people in Nanyang and Lejin's 10,000 people in Xiangyang.
On the Xuzhou side were Zhang Liao's left army of 10,000 men and the Xuzhou army of 10,000 men.
A total of 70,000 troops were deployed in the south, not only to attack Jingzhou and defend Yangzhou, but also to monitor the Seven Kingdoms Alliance. Liu Chong and King Lu had more than 40,000 troops in total, how could they not take precautions.
Before returning to the army, Liu Xiang still wanted to tell Guan Yu something. This time he returned to the army in a hurry, and many things had not been completed.
When he arrived at the former army camp, he saw a strange sight, two red-faced men nine feet tall!
"Yun Chang, you went to Nanyang for a tour and brought back a son?"
