Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 579 Guandu Joint Exercise
"General, you said you would take me there!"

Inside the general's mansion, Hua Man rode his horse and stood in front of Xing Daorong, waving the long whip in her hand, her eyes as sharp as torches, with a hint of fierceness and unquestionableness.

She was wearing light armor, with a flying knife flashing at her waist, looking extremely heroic.

Xing Daorong was really helpless.

Perhaps Huaman is the only one who dares to face Yangbian now.

However, he also knew Huaman's personality, so he didn't take it too seriously.

Besides...

What Huaman said was right. He had indeed promised her to take her to the battle.

"General Xing, if you don't follow me into battle today, you will be breaking your promise!" Hua Man's voice was cold, with a hint of threat in her tone.

She raised her chin slightly and stared straight at Xing Daorong, as if she wanted to see through him.

"You Han people have a saying: A gentleman's word is as good as his bond!"

"General, how can you go back on your word?"

Xing Daorong smiled bitterly and said, "Miss Hua, it's not that I don't want to take you with me, but this battle is very serious, so it's not easy to take you with me."

"This battle is dangerous, why do you insist on having me go with you?"

Huaman naturally disagreed.

With a coquettish cry, she swung the whip, and the tip of the whip drew a sharp arc in the air, making a crisp "snap" sound.

With a somewhat dissatisfied tone, he said: "General, I will go to war with you, but it won't ruin your plans."

"Just follow me and learn. Just treat me as your personal guard."

This…

Since Huaman had said so much, Xing Daorong had no choice but to agree.

In fact, to put it bluntly, his bringing an extra garland with him had no impact on the army.

In the final analysis, it's because he is worried about her identity as a barbarian girl. It would be fine if she followed him in the mansion, but now he is going to take her to the army, which may cause criticism.

It’s just this reason, and it’s not easy to tell Huamanming.

But on second thought, I am advocating for sinicization and integration. If I am concerned about my identity as a barbarian woman, then what is the point of talking about integration?

After some thought…

I'm not afraid of dying on the battlefield, so why should I be afraid of gossip?
Anyone who dares to talk nonsense and sabotage the Chinese localization plan will be killed!

Once he thought this way, Xing Daorong put aside all his hesitations.

He just said, "Well, well, Miss Hua, you can just follow me to Guandu."

Huaman then nodded in satisfaction.

The corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a triumphant smile. She put away her whip, rode her horse closer to Xing Daorong, and whispered, "That's more like it. The general's words must be kept!"

Having said that, he left with satisfaction.

...

But three days later, Xing Daorong went to Guandu with military orders.

Not only did he go himself, he also brought 20,000 elite soldiers with him.

When they arrived at Guandu, Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were already waiting with their troops and horses.

But Xing Daorong led a large army and marched majestically on the road to Guandu.

Flags fluttered, war horses neighed, soldiers marched in step, and their armor gleamed coldly in the sun.

Xing Daorong rode on Dilu with a solemn expression and sharp eyes. He was nervous about the upcoming war and also longed for the unification of the world.

The world has been in chaos long enough!
This time, it’s time to unify the world and do things that will benefit future generations.

In the distance, the outline of Guandu gradually emerged.

In front of the city gate, Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei had already led their troops in line and waited. Zhuge Liang held a feather fan in his hand, smiling, with deep and wise eyes, watching Xing Daorong galloping over.

Guan Yu is wearing a green robe and holding a Green Dragon Crescent Blade. He looks majestic, with a red face and long beard fluttering slightly in the wind, and his eyes reveal majesty and confidence.

Zhang Fei stood aside, with a leopard head and round eyes, holding a 10-foot-long snake spear, looking menacing and ready to charge into battle at any time.

As Xing Daorong's troops gradually approached, Zhuge Liang gently waved his feather fan, signaling the soldiers to sound the horn.

The sound of the trumpet shook the earth, as if welcoming the general who came from afar.

Guan Yu nodded slightly, and Zhang Fei laughed loudly, his voice like a bell: "Zi Yu, you have worked hard all the way!"

Xing Daorong was shocked when he saw this. He quickly dismounted, stepped forward quickly, and saluted: "Kong Ming, Yun Chang, Yi De, I am late, please forgive me!"

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and waved his feather fan gently: "Zi Yu, there is no need to be polite. Today, we still need the general's strength in the battle of Guandu."

Guan Yu said in a deep voice: "You are brave and good at fighting. With you here, our army will be even more powerful."

Zhang Fei strode forward, patted Xing Daorong on the shoulder, and said generously: "Zi Yu, later on the battlefield, let's see who kills more enemies!"

Xing Daorong felt the enthusiasm and trust of the three people and laughed: "You are all here, why should I worry about it?"

"It's just that this time... it's a battle of great importance to the world, so Xing naturally can't miss it. I'm just here to join in the fun..."

Xing Daorong said it modestly, but who would really dare to think that he was just here to join in the fun?

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Now that Ziyu is here, we can start to implement our plan."

Xing Daorong was stunned when he heard this.

What plans have to wait for me to start?
While he was wondering, Zhang Fei couldn't wait any longer and shouted, "Okay, okay, I can't wait any longer!"

"Today we have finally managed to frighten the Wei army at Guandu and make them dare not line up in front of us!"

Hey!
When Xing Daorong heard that Zhuge Liang's arrangement could make the enemy terrified, he suddenly became curious.

Then he asked, "I wonder what the Prime Minister has planned?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and waved his fan, pointing to the north: "Of course, we should show our military might and frighten Cao's army. We should defeat them without fighting!"

Xing Daorong finally understood that Zhuge Liang was planning to conduct an exercise! A military exercise!
...

Xing Daorong really had no idea how to conduct military exercises these days, as he had never seen one before, so everything was done according to Zhuge Liang's arrangements.

Xing Daorong was actually quite puzzled about how to conduct military exercises. It couldn't be like in later generations, reviewing the troops.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be pretty much the same, that's basically it.

It seems that the tradition of reviewing has been going on for thousands of years.

On that day, the sky was clear and the air was fresh, with a cool autumn breeze. In Guandu, flags covered the sun and drums and horns sounded.

Zhuge Liang was dressed in military uniform, with a long sword at his waist, standing on a high platform with a sharp gaze.

When the command flag was waved, war drums roared and trumpets blew.

I saw tens of thousands of elite soldiers lined up in all directions, wearing bright armor, with swords and spears like a forest, and their momentum was like a rainbow.

Xing Daorong, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Wei Yan, Pang De, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin...

A group of generals, each leading an army, were so powerful that they shook the world.

Each general had at least 5,000 elite soldiers under his command, and the army of 100,000 men launched a massive military exercise just before Guandu.

Such a high profile naturally also became known to Cao Wei's army.

For a while, morale was extremely low.

Why?

Because after this military exercise, no one can say how powerful Liu Bei's army is, but one thing is certain.

This time Liu Bei claimed to have deployed 100,000 soldiers, and those were truly 100,000 strong, all of them were combat forces, not even counting the logistics troops.

After all... no one would conduct exercises with logistics troops!
