Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 608 Fierce Battle in the Snow 2
In the evening, Gongsun Xu held a military meeting in the big tent. Now, except for the generals and soldiers of the Huben Army, Gongsun Xu's subordinates can only be regarded as recruits, so it is necessary for Gongsun Xu to train them well, especially the generals in the army. Most of them depend on them to play the role of the mainstay. For this reason, a post-war summary is very necessary.

"Judging from today's battle, the overall quality of our army is worse than that of the enemy." Gongsun Xu tapped on the table and said: "I hope you can keep this in mind, and you must not get carried away just because of the small victory in front of you.

Eight thousand newly trained warriors are undoubtedly the worst in combat effectiveness. The Sirius army can only be on par with the enemy at most. This is not good news. I know that it is not good for you to improve the strength of your subordinates in a short period of time. It's an easy task, so we must have news in every next battle. "

Everyone was sitting in danger, and now they are qualified to sit here and listen to Gongsun Xu's teachings, it is definitely their honor, so they cherish this opportunity very much.

"The training of our soldiers is quite a lot." Gongsun Ran cupped his hands and said, "In fact, the individual quality of the Sirius army should be higher than that of the enemy army, but when fighting the enemy army, the bloodthirsty and ferociousness of the enemy army can often be compared with the enemy army." Frighten our army.

The enemy's daring to go all out is a major feature. Even if their individual combat ability is not very good, but on the battlefield, most of the enemy soldiers will fight in a way that kills both sides. This is the way soldiers fight on the battlefield. Our army Many soldiers obviously have scruples on the battlefield. This is the biggest problem for our army at present. "

"That makes sense." Gongsun Xu nodded and said: "There is no shortage of warriors in our army, and there are countless brave warriors. The overall level of Nair is indeed worse than them.

You are all generals in the army, and you have hundreds of people under your command, so how to improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers is up to you, whether it is training or actual combat, as long as you can think of it, you can put it into practice .

The decisive battle between our army and the enemy army will begin soon. I don’t know how far you can see. I just want to tell you one thing. The enemy in front of you is just a stepping stone for us. I have a hundred ways to defeat it. They, however, before defeating them, I must let you, let all soldiers learn something.

I still say that, including the Sirius Army, you are too weak, and now there are only more than 6000 sergeants in the entire valley that I can see, so you still have to work harder. "

When Gongsun Xu said this, he was not bragging, nor was he contemptuous of other people. He just wanted to state the fact that most of the soldiers in the valley are not qualified to be called elite soldiers.

"Today's defeat of the enemy army is of course worthy of congratulations." Gongsun Xu looked at the crowd and said, "However, I predict that the enemy army will not stop there. If my prediction is correct, it will take five days at most, or two days at least. They will all rush forward, and then it will be the time for our army to fight the enemy.

To strike first is to be strong, and to strike later will suffer. So far, our army has been in a passive state. Of course, there are reasons why the enemy army is stronger, but the more important thing is to find out the strength of the enemy army.

Therefore, I don't intend to give the enemy too much time. I have already sent people to the enemy camp to invite a battle. The decisive battle will be at the mouth of the valley tomorrow at noon. I have a mission to call you here now.

Gongsun Ran, tonight you will lead 3000 people from your headquarters to ambush in the valley to the west. After dawn, you will detour to the enemy camp and wait for my signal.

Aaron and Bai Ling, you two will each lead two thousand cavalry to ambush in the eastern valley, and after dawn, you will also take a detour to the enemy camp to stand by. Remember, in order to prevent the enemy from finding your tracks, you will take a detour of [-] miles after dawn Avoid enemy spies, and must be twenty miles behind the enemy camp before noon.

This operation is commanded by Gongsun Ran as the whole army, and you both have to obey Gongsun Ran's orders. If you disobey, Gongsun Ran can execute the military regulations on your behalf. "

"The subordinates take orders." The three of Gongsun Ran knelt down to take orders, and Gongsun Xu only ordered the three of them to go out to do errands. This was obviously an affirmation of their abilities. How could they be unhappy when they had the opportunity to fight independently.

"My plan is to attract the main force of the enemy to come to the valley for a decisive battle." Gongsun Xu pointed to the map and said, "In today's battle, the enemy must have realized that most of the captives are unreliable, so tomorrow we will definitely face the enemy. Elite, and the main force.

After you take away the 7000 cavalry, there are still [-] archers and [-] cavalry left in the valley. It is definitely not a problem for me to use [-] people to hold back the opponent's main force. When the wolf smoke appears in the valley, you have to attack the enemy camp immediately.

The overall plan is like this, but the plan will definitely not keep up with the changes. If the enemy army has too many troops in the camp and can withstand your attack, then you should shift your target and focus on attacking and rescuing the prisoners.

If the defense of the enemy camp is weak, you can break it in one fell swoop. You must withdraw your troops before dark. Unless you take the enemy camp, you must not love to fight. It is not too late. The three of you should prepare now. "

After Gongsun Ran and the others were ordered to withdraw from the tent, Gongsun Xu continued: "Ah Hu, Tie Mastiff, you two will command four thousand archers to fight the enemy tomorrow.

These days, you have been commanding and training four thousand archers. Presumably, you must also be familiar with the combat method of riding against horses. Whether you can win the battle tomorrow depends on your performance. "

"The villain will never let the master down." Ah Hu and Tie Mastiff knelt on the ground and said: "I don't know if the master has any other arrangements."

"Hehe, why, are you afraid that the four thousand archers on your side can't stop the opponent's thousands of horses?" Gongsun Xu said with a smile: "Tomorrow I will be behind you, and I will lead three thousand cavalry to guard the rear. If you are defeated If so, I will personally lead the troops to the battlefield, so I hope you don't give me such an opportunity, if you can't carry it this time, it means that you are not qualified to continue to follow me."

Hearing this, Ah Hu and Tie Mastiff looked at each other, they both saw a trace of determination in each other's eyes, and Gongsun Xu said so, so what else do they have to ask, the worst is to die in battle, if they live by What's the point of living like this if you can't continue to follow Gongsun Xu's words?

After everyone in the tent was ordered to go down to prepare, Dian Wei stepped forward and asked, "My lord, do you really want to rely on four thousand bows and arrows to resist the main force of the enemy army?"

"What do you think? Can't you?" Gongsun Xu asked back: "You don't have confidence in them?"

"My lord's plan must be extraordinary." Dian Wei replied, "It's just that I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case."

"As I said, the combat effectiveness of these recruited prairie cavalry is too poor." Gongsun Xu waved his hand and replied, "Even if they are Jie cavalry, in my opinion, they are at most as powerful as Xiliang iron cavalry.

They are too far behind Huben, compared with the draft front, so they need to go through more battles and more tests. If they don't really experience life and death, how can they grow into elites.

I will lead [-] cavalry to lead the formation. Tomorrow you will order the Huben army to prepare for battle. If there is an accident, let the Huben army play. Hey, the Jie cavalry is just the beginning. If even the Jie cavalry needs to use the Huben army, Wouldn't it be even more difficult for us to fight back to northern Xinjiang in those two months. "

At dawn the next day, the valley became active. The cooks and women in charge of logistics were busy with barbecue and cooking soup. Today is a decisive battle. If the valley is broken, they will become slaves. No one wants to be slaves, so today everyone Everyone works so hard.

When noon was approaching, the enemy army had already appeared two miles away. With a wave of Gongsun Xu's big hand, Ah Hu and Tie Mastiff led four thousand archers out of the valley to form an array. Three thousand cavalry went out of the valley.

Outside the valley, [-] archers got ready immediately after arriving at the designated position, and the auxiliary soldiers quickly sent up all weapons, bows and arrows, short spears, etc.

"Are you all ready?" Looking at the enemy army in the distance, Gongsun Xu asked, "Our army must occupy a favorable location."

"My lord, don't worry." Dian Wei replied, "According to my lord's order, a large number of stones have been placed within seventy steps on both sides, and many traps have been dug, so it is impossible for the enemy to attack from both sides.

The 130 cavalry were divided into two teams to guard the archers' wings. From [-] paces to [-] paces ahead, there were horse pits, and within [-] paces, there were barbed thorns all over. With this thing, the enemy's horses would never want to step in. "

"Hehe, you can see the stones and traps on both sides." Gongsun Xu nodded and said, "The barbed caltrops and horse traps in the middle are hidden under the snow, as long as the horses trample on them, they will break their hooves.

Come on, since the battle has begun, let's not hold back, I don't believe it, each archer has five bows, twenty arrows, three short spears, and one iron spear, so if we can't hold back the enemy As for the cavalry, then the Huben army should really be put on the field. "

Except for Dian Wei, no one knows what Gongsun Xu said. If the other general hears this, I don't know what he will think.

Are you complaining about your poor equipment?Still complain that Gongsun Xu is too extravagant.There are only 3 archers, and the equipment spent on them is enough to arm [-] to [-] people. Gongsun Xu really has money and no place to spend it.

If these archers are strong enough, they only need to shoot the arrows in the quiver, and then shoot the three short spears, and finally just squat on the ground with the spear, and the rest has nothing to do with them.

You know, even the Jie cavalry in front of you, each of them only has four or five arrows at most, and most of them are arrows made of stone or animal bones. Defective products.

The equipment of the four thousand archers is much better than that of all of them. It seems that Gongsun Xu is clearly aware of the disadvantages and advantages of his side, so he intends to use equipment to restore the situation.

Grasp the enemy's weaknesses, then find your own corresponding strengths, and then use your own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses. In this way, the enemy will be defeated. This is Gongsun Xu's strategy. Use your own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses.
