Chapter 853 Going to Xuzhou

"Ah."

Xu Ding nodded.

After these few days of fighting, Xu Ding has already confirmed that Lu Xun is a rare military talent.

To some extent, he is more suitable for commanding at the front than Jia Xu and Guo Jia.

Of course, this does not mean that Jia Xu and Guo Jia are no good.

Their talents are not in commanding troops in battle, but in strategy!Control the overall situation and win thousands of miles.

And Lu Xun is the executor on the front line.

"How many weapons and equipment have we seized in this battle?" Xu Ding asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the brigades are cleaning the battlefield. At the end, there are estimated to be tens of thousands of rifles, as well as a large number of bullets and artillery, enough to equip a division." Lu Xun replied.

"Give all these weapons and equipment to Huang Zhong's Central Plains Field Army. This way you will be more secure when stationed in Qiao County," Xu Ding said.

"Yes."

Lu Xun also wanted to suggest ways to enhance the combat effectiveness of the Central Plains Field Army.

Unexpectedly, Xu Ding brought it up first.

This also saves him from talking too much.

Hand over Qiaojun City to Lu Xun and Huang Zhong.

Xu Ding took Dian Wei and the Imperial Forest Army back to the mountain range where the special forces trained.

Counting the time, it has been more than ten days since I left this mountain range.

During this period, no news came out.

The special forces who participated in the training did not know what the situation was.

but.

Regardless of the circumstances, they participated in this training and must have learned a lot.

Arrived outside the mountain.

Camp and wait.

"There is still half a day until the end of the mission. Dianwei, take a team and go to the mountains to have a look." Xu Ding said.

"Yes."

Dian Wei took his men and searched along the way they had gone.

Walked a few miles forward.

On a very high mountain, I saw a group of people in the farthest distance, supporting each other, walking towards here.

They were very embarrassed, and they were covered in mud.

Pants, clothes, were all torn.

The gun is on the back, hanging casually, like a soldier who has lost a battle.

"It seems that some people are missing." Dian Wei found that the number of people was not as many as before.

It is estimated that some people died during the training.

This is also inevitable.

When they entered the mountain, they only brought food for one day, but they had to spend half a month in the mountain.

It is difficult to survive without shooting guns and lighting fires.

Dian Wei went back to the camp first.

Report the situation to Xu Ding.

"Okay." Xu Ding is not worried but happy: "This shows that most of them have learned how to survive in the wild. They also know how to help each other. This will play a big role in future wars."

"Dianwei, go prepare some food. When they come back, eat first and rest overnight."

"Yes."

Dian Wei went to prepare.

It didn't take long.

The special forces are all back.

The situation is similar to what Dian Wei said.

Xu Ding calculated, and there were more than 30 people missing.

He didn't ask where those people went. He could have imagined that they must have died.

"Go wash up, eat something, and then sleep. We'll talk about the task tomorrow." Xu Ding said.

"Yes."

Everyone supported each other and left the place.

After one night.

The exhausted special forces returned to their previous spirits.

Xu Ding checked the information brought back by the Imperial Forest Army, called everyone together, and said: "Except for those who have died, the remaining 410 people have almost passed the mission. Only a few of them..."

Speaking of this, Xu Ding glanced at them and called out a few names: "Dong Yu, Wang Jin, Lu Sheng... These people all violated my previous regulations and secretly stole the fire."

"All those whose names have been read are listed."

They step forward.

"You were eliminated. To be honest, it's a pity. This is the last task of the special forces training, and you didn't persevere. I won't punish you either. Go back to your original unit." Xu Ding said calmly.

The soldiers who have been able to come to the present have been continuously trained and selected.

They are all the best of the best.

The best of the best.

These undisciplined people, if they join the Special Forces, can also fight, perhaps stronger than others.However, what is promised is absolute discipline.

If you violate discipline, you will be eliminated.

Only in this way can a special force with strict discipline and strong combat effectiveness be formed.

"Report."

"Say."

One of the people who stood up said, "We didn't make a big mistake. We just lit a fire and roasted some wild food. Because we are not used to eating raw food, should this also be eliminated?"

"Of course!"

Xu Ding said: "You think it's a small mistake. You don't even think you're wrong. But I think it's a big mistake."

"Because in future wars, you will encounter situations like today. Let me give you a metaphor. For example, I ordered you to raid the enemy's headquarters, but the enemy's headquarters is protected by several divisions. All roads are cut off. In this case, how do you get to the mission site?"

"Only if you pass through the mountains and arrive without anyone noticing, will you be able to have an unexpected effect."

"Or after the defeat, the enemy approached the mountains..."

"In both cases, you need to survive in the wild. If you encounter enemy special forces, you will be followed all the time. Once you raise your fire and fire your guns, you may attract enemies, and the only thing waiting for you is death."

"I say this, do you understand?"

"Understood." Several people regretted endlessly.

If I knew this was the case, I would just bear it and eat raw game, so why not?It's better than being eliminated now.

"You all go. Return to Xuchang and report." Xu Ding waved his hands.

"Yes."

With deep regret, they left the Special Forces.

"The rest are the elite."

"I congratulate you for becoming a real special soldier. Your existence should be the enemy's nightmare and the soul of our Second Army." Xu Ding said.

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Everyone replied loudly.

"The training mission is over, follow me back to Xuchang." Xu Ding ordered Feng Linhuo's captain to pack their bags.

Everyone went back the same way.

At this time.

In the Xuchang campus.

Jia Xu just finished the military parade.

After more than a month of training, the Second Army has taken shape.

Although two divisions were transferred, there are still 8 people.

Among them, there are [-] cavalry and [-] infantry.

After the parade.

in the tent.

Jia Xu said: "Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, and General Tai Shici, your three columns are the main force of the Second Army. The enemy you will face may be stronger than yours, but I hope you will have the confidence to win the battle Don't forget that the First Group Army and the Central Plains Field Army have made great achievements in Jingzhou and Yangzhou respectively. They don't even have weapons and equipment, but they have repeatedly defeated the enemy, while our Second Army has mastered the most advanced weapons. Isn't it better Are they?"

"The training should have lasted longer, but the front line does not allow us to delay any longer. I have submitted reports to the Military Aircraft Department and His Majesty respectively, and I plan to lead you to Xuzhou in five days. Because we received According to news, there are a large number of enemies rushing from Yangzhou to Xuzhou, and our first battle will be in Pengcheng."

"Are you confident?"

"Have!"

All the generals in the account replied.

"The battle is urgent, and it's too late to send troops together. General Tai Shici, you will lead the third column and rush to Xuzhou first. Garrison in Pengcheng and block the enemy troops attacking Xuzhou until my main force arrives." Jia Xu said.

"As ordered."

Tai Shici came out.

"The other two columns are also ready for the expedition. When His Majesty returns and gives permission, they will send troops to Xuzhou." Jia Xu said.

"promise."

End of the meeting.

Jia Xu rushed to the military aircraft department.

In the past few days, the Military Aircraft Department has received several urgent reports.

Two of them were from Xuzhou.

The enemy is divided into two groups.All the way to attack Huaiyin, trying to kill Xiapi from the northeast of Xuzhou.All the way from Shouchun to Pengcheng.

The main force of the two enemy forces is no less than [-] troops.

This is probably the last strong enemy army in Jiangdong.

this day.

Xu Ding returned to Xuchang City with special forces.

Xi Zhicai and Jia Xu came before their buttocks were hot.

Xi Zhicai first said: "After Cao Cao captured Hanzhong, he led [-] elite soldiers to capture Jiange directly, and is now marching towards Yizhou. Although Liu Zhang has a strong army and Yizhou is extremely dangerous, Cao Cao's generals and Zhang Lu's soldiers The generals are all elites who have fought for many years, and I am afraid that Liu Zhang will be hard to resist."

"What did Zhicai want to say? Is he worried that Cao Cao will conquer Yizhou and become stronger?" Xu Ding asked.

"Yes."

Xi Zhicai said: "Cao Cao formed an alliance with us because he couldn't beat us, so he had to form an alliance due to the situation. Once he becomes stronger, he will pose a threat to us. The possibility of forming an alliance with the Western Shang Empire and attacking us cannot be ruled out. .”

"So, should we... think of a way to help Liu Zhang. Or force Cao Cao to return to Hanzhong. In short, we can't let him get Yizhou. Otherwise, it will be a big problem."

At this time, Jia Xu cupped his hands and said: "I don't agree with the words of comrades. At present, our war with the Western Shang Empire has just begun. Their attacks will continue, round after round. We should unite everything that can be united." Strength, use all your strength to deal with this powerful enemy. Don't fight with Cao Cao."

"Wen He is right." Xu Ding chuckled and said, "Actually, Cao Cao. I don't think much of him anymore. Just think about how bad his weapons and equipment are. We can send a brigade at will. He suffered. Let him eliminate Liu Zhang in the rear and unify Bashu, which is not a bad thing. It saves us from attacking ourselves."

Xi Zhicai said: "But the premise is that Cao Cao has always been an alliance with us. Once he has a different heart, we will face enemies from many sides."

"Cao Cao will not be so stupid as to start a war with us. At least not for a few years. Because he knows in his heart that even if he tries his best, he will not be our opponent." Jia Xu said.

"Ah."

Xu Ding agreed with Jia Xu's point of view.

"Everything should focus on the overall situation. What is the overall situation? Defend Xuzhou and Jingzhou, and counterattack Yangzhou and Jiangdong. This is the overall situation." Xu Ding waved his hand and asked, "Zhicai, when I entered the city just now, I heard that the enemy is attacking Is it true that Xuzhou dispatched troops?"

"Yes."

Jia Xu said first: "I am about to report this matter. The Western Shang Empire has sent nearly [-] main forces to approach Huaiyin and Pengcheng. It is expected that they will enter Xuzhou within five days. I have sent General Tai Shici to lead the The third column of the second group army is going to defend. I ask you to lead the second group army to fight in Xuzhou."

Xu Ding said: "After the training of the army is completed, it can go out. Do you think the second group army can take on the big job?"

"can!"

"Since that's the case, you can go. I'll wait for the good news from your second army." Xu Ding said.

"My minister obeys."

Jia Xu bowed his hands and retreated.

He must get to the front line as soon as possible.

There is no extra time to prepare.

Arriving at the earliest moment is a moment. Only by defending Xiapi and Pengcheng can a good situation be established in Xuzhou.

"Zhicai, hasn't anything happened in Xuchang recently?" Xu Ding asked.

"No. Since Cao Cao was driven to Xiliang, Liu Bei was wiped out, and Sun Jian returned, all parts of China have been peaceful and developing rapidly. Among them, cement roads are already being built in Hebei. The Qingzhou track has been extended to Xuzhou. The commerce and agriculture of all states and counties are excellent."

"Ah."

Xu Ding was worried that the Western Shang Empire's massive attack would cause restlessness in the rear.

Did not expect the situation will be so good.

This is thanks to Xi Zhicai.

Only with him in charge of the overall situation can the states and counties develop peacefully.

After explaining some internal affairs with Xi Zhicai, Xu Ding went back to rest.

the next day.

Jia Xu led the army to set off.

Xu Ding saw him off and sent him more than ten miles away.

Guo Jia and Xu Ding were together, and said: "My lord, will I gain anything from going to Qiao County this time?"

"Have."

Xu Ding drove back in the military vehicle, and said with a smile, "I have been in Qiao County for half a month, and I have seen that Lu Xun's commanding ability is by no means inferior to Zhuge Liang. You may not be happy about it, but he is better at commanding new types of troops than you."

Guo Jia replied with a smile: "I have nothing to be unhappy about. Someone who can command better than me means that our strength will be stronger. It's too late for me to be happy."

"only.."

"You still don't trust Lu Xun? Think he is Sun Jian's general?" Xu Ding saw through Guo Jia's thoughts at a glance.

"Maybe I'm thinking too much. But I think I have to guard against it. Your Majesty handed over a reorganization division to Lu Xun, and even Huang Zhong's Central Plains Field Army has to obey his orders. It's really risky."

Xu Ding stopped the car, and said decisively: "Feng Xiao, I hope you won't say such things from your mouth in the future. Because you are the military adviser of the army, your words carry too much weight. Also, I absolutely trust Lu Xun, there is no need for the slightest doubt."

"Yes."

Guo Jia solemnly clapped his hands in response.

After returning to Xuchang.

Xu Ding went to the weapons workshop.

Here, they used to make swords, shields, and chariots, but now they are learning to make guns.But this technology is not within the grasp of ordinary people.

Even Xu Ding didn't know how to make a firearm with a long range and strong penetrating power like the Western Shang Empire.

They can only make muskets first.

"Compared with the enemy's, our weapons workshop is far worse. The weapons we produce have a range of only more than 500 meters. The power of the grenade is not as good as the enemy's grenade. It is also more troublesome to use. I have improved it many times. , but still can’t do it,” Guo Jia said.
