Three Kingdoms open plug-ins everywhere

Chapter 896 (2)

As Jia Xu said.

Even if there is danger, the troops cannot be withdrawn, otherwise it will become a joke.

Xu Ding took a deep breath.

He believed in Guo Jia and Jia Xu again, and was going to see with his own eyes whether Lu Xun's field brigade could escape the artillery fire.If it can be done and the battle ends with zero casualties, it will definitely be a miracle in the history of war.

The artillery column fired twenty rounds of salvo and fired 5 shells, which took a total of five minutes.

During these 5 minutes, there was no movement on the ground.

Looking around, there are only smoke, dirt, and stones dancing wildly in mid-air.

These were blown up by shells.

Xu Ding purposely held up the binoculars and looked carefully.

Until the shells were fired, he did not see a soldier appearing on the battlefield.This shows that the field brigade was well hidden and was not blown out by shells.

This relieved Xu Ding a little.

perhaps
Can Lu Xun's field brigade really perform miracles?
Xu Ding continued to read with anticipation and a little worry.

After the cannonade ended.

Everyone stared intently at the battlefield.

After a long time.
I saw a soldier standing out of the trench holding a flag.

He waved the flag forward.

Then the drums roared.

The soldiers hiding in the positions all crawled out in an orderly manner.Line up and walk towards the city gate.

At first, it felt a little messy.

But walking and walking, it is very neat.

Inside and outside the city, the common people all opened their mouths.

Who would have thought that after the bombardment, the soldiers on the ground would come out intact.

Xu Ding was also very surprised.

I thought there would be casualties, at least some of the soldiers would be buried in the dug caves due to the vibration caused by the artillery. Now it seems that Lu Xun's field brigade does have its unique features.

Their ability to build fortifications and avoid shells is definitely the first in China.

"Bo Yan."

"exist."

Xu Ding turned around slightly, and said with a smile: "Your field brigade has opened my eyes. I want to inform the whole army, learn from you, and strive to let more troops have the same ability as you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the compliment."

Lu Xun was excited.

The establishment of the field brigade finally got Xu Ding's final approval, and the whole army had to learn from it.

He doesn't have to worry anymore, he promises to talk about it in the future.

Guo Jia and Jia Xu on the side also looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay..."

They all secretly said in their hearts.

In fact, Guo Jia was very worried about this matter.

If it wasn't for Jia Xu's persistent insistence and the guarantee of Lu Xun's field brigade, he would not have dared to do so.

"Wenhe, Fengxiao."

"exist."

Xu Ding turned his gaze over again and said, "You are right, Lu Xun's field brigade is indeed very capable, and this ceremony is even more dazzling because of the field brigade."

"It's all because of your persistence..."

Jia Xu and Guo Jia were also praised by Xu Ding.

The field brigade entered the city with their heads held high, and the rest of the troops followed suit after practicing outside the city for a while.

This ceremony, until now, is more than halfway done.

Xu Ding led the civil and military ministers back to the school grounds by the same route.

The people in the streets and alleys are like ants, densely packed, and they follow behind.

Xu Ding sat in the car and listened to the people's discussions.

Generally speaking, the common people were both surprised and extremely shocked by this ceremony.At the same time, it is also very reassuring.Because of such an army, the Huaxia Kingdom will surely stand firm.They no longer have to live a life of displacement and war.

A peaceful and prosperous age is just around the corner.

Back to the school grounds.

Under the arrangement of Jia Xu and Guo Jia, a series of ceremonies were also carried out.

Including the shooting of the sharp gun battalion, the actual combat confrontation of the elite brigade, and Jia Heng's Fenglin Huoshan special forces, all showed their talents one after another.

Of course, Feng Linhuo had been severely injured, and there were not many people left.

Especially as a heroic special forces unit like Feng Linhuo, he must make a difference.Jia Heng selected thirty people to cooperate with Jia Xu and Guo Jia.

The process is very exciting, like a big drama.

After evening.

It's nearing the end.

Xu Ding was also starving, and as the final salute was fired, he returned to Fengtian Palace with a gun.

In Fengtian Palace, the celebration ceremony ended successfully.

room.

Xu Ding specifically mentioned: "Today, the most exciting thing was the artillery battle outside the city. I really never thought that General Lu Xun's field brigade would have such a capability."

"Generals, ask yourselves. If you were the ones being bombed today, would your troops be able to avoid the bombing of tens of thousands of shells like a field brigade?"

"This."

Many division commanders and brigade commanders present shook their heads secretly.

Their troops will definitely not be able to do it!
This point is almost unnecessary.

Xu Ding continued: "Therefore, our troops have to strengthen their training and improve their actual combat experience. Especially the field brigade's training to avoid artillery bombardment must be spread to all armies. Every army must master it. Because, when we fight against the Western Shang Empire, we will almost always encounter their artillery. If we do not defend, the casualties will be too great."

"Your Majesty is absolutely right."

Jia Xu strongly agrees.

The Huaxia Kingdom has experienced wars with the Western Shang Empire, from the era of cold weapons to the era of hot weapons.However, after all, the time is still short, and some combat skills and military training are still in the groping stage.It needs to be more perfect before it can play a role in future wars.

Lu Xun's field brigade was a wake-up call for everyone.

Only by not being afraid of artillery can the casualties of troops be reduced as much as possible.

During the banquet.

Xu Ding made a suggestion as a matter of course, and said to Lu Xun: "Bo Yan, you have some experience in forming a field brigade. I want to train such an army again. Are you willing to take on this important task?"

"The last general will not disgrace his life."

Lu Xun has become a model for generals across the country, so there is no reason why he is unwilling.

"That's good. This army is still under your command. You can make any request and report it to the Military Aircraft Department for approval. As long as the Military Aircraft Department can do it, it will agree to you. But I have one request. This field brigade must Especially elite. If you can't do it, then"

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, you will do the right thing in the end." Before Xu Ding could finish speaking, Lu Xun responded.

"it is good."

After confirming this matter, Xu Ding was even more happy.

Because in a few months, there will be an accident with the same elite field brigade, and Huaxia's field capabilities will also be raised to a higher level.

Originally, we had to discuss the matter of luring Cao Cao to fight in Chang'an, but we didn't discuss it because it was too late.

After the banquet, they all left one after another.

a few days later.

What happened in Xuchang was passed on by the common people like a god.

The emissary sent by Cao Cao to Xuchang also witnessed the whole process and reported to Cao Cao.

chengdu.

In the conference hall.

Cao Cao looked dignified, and said to the civil and military ministers: "A few days ago, Xu Ding was in Xuchang, and he claimed to have 20 elites. Touring the city for a day, the momentum is huge."

"According to our detailed investigation reports, although there are not 20 Chinese soldiers involved, they are indeed extremely elite. Especially the artillery battle outside Xuchang City was even more exciting."

Cao Cao told the news from the secret work exactly.

Civil and military people all looked at each other.

They knew very little about artillery.

Because it has never appeared in previous wars.

The Huaxia Kingdom was at war with the Western Merchant Empire, and the news they got was only passed down through elaboration, and it was hard to tell whether it was true or false.

This time, whether it is really that strong, civil and military people are skeptical.

but
Sima Yi is convinced.

He said: "Xu Ding is getting stronger and stronger, especially after repelling the Western Shang Empire, he will definitely rectify his troops and strengthen his military power. When he becomes stronger, no matter whether it is the Western Shang Empire or the Eastern Shang Empire The empire may be difficult to contend against. And we, surviving in the cracks, will become more and more difficult."

"What's Zhongda's suggestion?" Cao Cao asked.

Sima Yi said: "I still suggest that we start a local war with Xu Ding and seize his guns, so as to gradually increase our military strength."

"Partial war? What do you mean?" Cao Cao never understood why Sima Yi suggested this.

"My lord, you might as well think about it. If we start a full-scale war with Xu Ding, what are our chances of winning? I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for a month, and Yizhou and Xiliang will fall. This will not only fail to increase our strength, but will also put us in danger."

"Therefore, we want to confuse Xu Ding. On the one hand, send people to discuss cooperation with him, such as negotiating to buy its wine, paper, cloth, etc.; Seizing the guns is the main thing.”

Sima Yi said slowly.

His thinking was very clear and cautious.

To put it bluntly, it is to start a small-scale war with Xu Ding without angering Xu Ding.Even if Xu Ding knew about it, Cao Cao could still be said to be a general under his command, and it was none of his business to do it privately.There is still room for buffering.

And vice versa.
If Xu Ding doesn't know, he can seize the guns in the Jingzhou area for a long time and gradually strengthen the strength of the Yizhou army.

This style of play is the only way for a weak country to face a strong country.

Cao Cao thought about it for a long time, then suddenly said: "Okay, Zhongda is indeed my brain truster, and he came up with a clever plan that has never been seen before. I believe that our army will be able to win."

"only.."

Cao Cao glanced at the generals present and asked, "Who can undertake such an important task?"

At this time, Cao Ren, the general of the Chinese army, came out, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, the general is willing to go."

"You are the chief general of the Chinese army. You should be in charge of the army in Chengdu. How can you go to the front line?" Cao Cao had already lost many courageous and insightful generals.

Because in his opinion, this is a very dangerous thing.

"My lord, I think that General Cao Ren is the most suitable. He has led the army for many years, has rich combat experience, and is better at fighting tough and vicious battles. Only he can lead the army to Jingzhou to complete this task." Sima Yi said.

"what?"

Cao Cao did not expect that Sima Yi would support Cao Ren to lead the army to Jingzhou.

Is it really worth sending your confidant general to such a dangerous matter?

How could Sima Yi not know Cao Cao's thoughts?

He chuckled and said, "Zhuge don't have to worry. General Cao Ren will not be in danger if he goes here. Because the military force in Jingzhou area is relatively weak, according to careful investigation, most of their troops have been transferred to Xuchang and Jiangdong Jianye In the Jingzhou area, there are only about [-] people. Moreover, many of them have just fought and are still recovering from their injuries. At this time, if an elite army goes directly to Jingzhou, although they cannot gain territory, they can seize their weapons."

"You really feel good?"

"Yes."

Cao Cao looked at Cao Ren again: "Since Zhong Da has agreed, I will not refuse you. You can choose five thousand elites and go to Jingzhou someday. However, you must be extremely careful. When fighting with the Jingzhou army, you must keep quiet , mainly to seize their weapons."

"Yes."

Cao Ren agreed.

"General Cao Ren, you'd better not wear armor when you go to Jingzhou this time," Sima Yi said.

"Not wearing armor? Why?" Cao Ren didn't understand.

"The reason is very simple. When you go to Jingzhou, you are not going to formally start a war with Xu Ding, but to seize their guns without alarming Xu Ding. The best way to do this is to keep them from knowing, yes We're attacking them."

Only halfway through Sima Yi's words, Cao Ren understood: "Sir, what do you mean, let the last general pretend to be a bandit and attack Jingzhou?"

"General, I'm quick-witted, and I can see through a little bit." Sima Yi nodded.

That's what he meant.

"Report." At this time, a soldier ran into the meeting hall with a letter.

Civil and military people all turned around.

Xiahou Dun took the letter and handed it to Cao Cao.

"Here." Cao Cao opened the letter, and the more he looked at it, the happier he said: "God help me!"

"My lord, can you tell me what happened?"

Sima Yi asked.

Cao Cao handed the letter to Sima Yi and said, "Look, there is a batch of firearms being transported to the Chang'an area via Wuguan. The Chang'an garrison is less than [-]. It is said that it is still a local army."

"If we send troops to make a surprise attack, is it possible to seize these guns?"

After reading the letter, Sima Yi said firmly, "My lord, I don't suggest taking these guns."

"Why? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Cao Cao had long wanted to capture Chang'an.Only by capturing Chang'an can Xiliang return to safety.His line of defense is really solid, otherwise, Xiliang and Yizhou will always face the promised crusade.

This time, a large number of firearms were transported to Chang'an, and there were not many defenders in Chang'an. It was time for him to make contributions.

Regardless of which aspect is considered, the army should march northward.

"My lord, do you really think that Xu Ding will use troops like this? How can there be a large number of guns shipped to Chang'an without sending troops to garrison them? This is not in line with Chang's principles." Sima Yi said.

"Sir, you're worrying too much." Xia Houyuan stood up and said, "Since driving away the Western Shang Empire, Xu Ding is confident that the world is invincible. He must think that we dare not attack Chang'an, and we are more confident in resisting it with a very small force." Therefore, only a few thousand people were sent to defend the city. This is the result of his arrogance, and there is no trap. The general felt that he should seize this opportunity and give Xu Ding a wink. As long as Chang'an is captured, And with this batch of firearms, our strength will increase a lot.”
