Mythic version of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 649 The strength of Yuan and Liu

It is a pleasure for all soldiers to fight a victory and then eat a big meal, which means that they are still alive.

But after every big victory, for the commander, it means to be careful and careful. If you win first and then lose, it will be a complete tragedy. You must know that if you win at the beginning, you are defeated or even lost your life because of carelessness. So after a big victory, you have to be more careful to hold the victory.

After the generals left the school, Chen Xi and Guo Jia were left in the entire tent. They still needed to discuss some matters. As for Xu Chu, he had already gone to patrol the camp first, and he was handed over to Zhao Yun to patrol the camp in the middle of the night. It is only after such a big victory that senior generals need to be so cautious.

"To repeat the old story, Yuan Shao's army doesn't seem to be weaker than us, and the fighting spirit of both sides is basically the same." Chen Xi sighed and said, "The soldiers under our command are both enshrined and collected, especially the Qingzhou soldiers, except that the military discipline is not very good. , in other respects it is top notch.”

"Military discipline has been under control, but after all, born in the Yellow Turbans, it is difficult to wash away the habit of ten years, but this aspect is not a big problem. The biggest advantage of Qingzhou soldiers is that we gave them what they wanted. Everything, they are willing to pay with their lives." Guo Jia waved his hand and said.

Guo Jia doesn't take military discipline very seriously. After all, the killing, burning, looting and looting in the general direction of Qingzhou's military discipline have been eliminated. Too important, winning is much more important than capturing these materials.

Besides, Qingzhou soldiers cultivated this kind of thing that could be used in their arms after fighting. It was completely scary before, otherwise, it would not be like this at all.

"Okay, the military discipline is over. As long as you don't kill, burn, loot and loot the people, you won't see those details. How can you say that Qingzhou soldiers have the strongest fighting will." For years, I was very poor and scared. It was a habit to put everything on my body when I saw it could be used. It was enough to win.

"The fighting will of the Xuzhou soldiers is not good, and it is obvious that they are timid before fighting." Zhao Yun said with a sigh.

"There is no way to do this. All the three generations of leaders of the Yellow Turbans took the blood oath to get the Yellow Turbans out of the group of thieves. They all know to cherish this opportunity, and we also gave them fertile land and built houses for them, so These people will fight to the death." Chen Xi said helplessly, which was also the biggest advantage of his original plan.

"As for the Xuzhou soldiers, there has been no war in the local area for many years, and there are too many places to hone." Guo Jia pouted and said, he has never endured hardship or experienced war, no matter how much he trains, it will be like that.

"Yuan Shao's army has too many cavalry." Guan Yu said slowly.

"Indeed, our army is located in the Central Plains and has no source of cavalry. Even if there is Jia Wenhe's horse administration, this is actually a means to deal with the later Pinghu. We really can't do anything about horses alone." Chen Xi said helplessly. .

"Jia Wenhe's Ma Zheng is now in operation, in fact, it is to pacify Jizhou, and after the state is merged, there is no stopping it when it is implemented, and it also means to deal with the northern Hu people. It is completely useless now." Guo Jia sighed and said, "In short, Yuan Shao Horses have been restricted."

"This is also a hassle." Zhao Yun frowned and said, "How about our HNA going to Liaodong to transport horses?"

"This line can be considered broken now. I don't know what Yuan Shao gave Gongsun Du. Now it is difficult for us to get a good horse from Gongsun Du." Chen Xi waved his hand, he was sitting in Yanzhou, and these things were clear.

"Basically, as far as I feel, our army and the Hebei army basically don't have any advantages in terms of strength. Our army has some advantages in soldiers, but our army is still at a disadvantage when it is exchanged by cavalry. As for a large number of bows Crossbow, Zichuan, how many have you kept in reserve over the years?" Guo Jia was also helpless.

In the past, there was an endless fight in Licheng and Jizhou. Guo Jia himself knew a lot about the Jizhou army. As for this large-scale collision, Guo Jia knew more about the Jizhou army.

"I have reserves of crossbows, strong crossbows, and bows and arrows. Although it was only two years ago, I have prepared nearly 40 pots." Chen Xi said calmly,

Chen Xi has not done anything for so many years. Every year, he has to pay for work. He does not necessarily have to build infrastructure, make some gun shafts, arrow shafts, knife handles, cushions inside the shield, etc. It is also possible to use the world. With the goal of being the strongest, and with the aim of confronting the princes of the world head-on, Mount Tai has been saving.

"Okay, you can rest assured of war weapons. The number of well-raised armors, large shields, and swords is absolutely sufficient. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the fields have spent so many years, but I have been stocking them up. You can rest assured in all aspects of weapons. Absolutely have an advantage." Chen Xi said with a smile, "You only need to think about the war."

"That's nothing to say. We and the North who don't play yin have their own advantages and disadvantages. The North's biggest advantage, the local family's complete civil and military, has been redeemed by us." Guo Jia said confidently.

"Yes, we have hundreds of thousands of scholars who we have cultivated ourselves, and it is not difficult to promote thousands of low-level officials. We have millions of Yellow Turbans who have kindness to us. No matter which aspect of civil and military, we have certain advantages. "Chen Xi nodded and said, this is accumulated little by little.

It is said that what Chen Xi and Liu Bei did before was to cast the net on a large area, and directly created hundreds of thousands of scholars. These people did not study for a long time, but after all, there are some people with ingenious minds that are amazing. Although what they have learned is not comprehensive, but There is absolutely no problem with being a minor official.

Although the elite education of the aristocratic family is terrifying, the family has a long history, and it is easy to appear geniuses, but Liu Bei and Chen Xi can't stand the number of people who cast a net to educate them at one time.

According to the ratio of officials and citizens of [-] to [-] in this era, the available talents produced in three to five years are enough to manage millions of people, and a lot of others are thrown into all walks of life. This is the key to the prosperity of Mount Tai, and these people's congresses Most of them are grateful for Liu Bei, and if nothing else, they are much more reliable than the children of aristocratic families.

"But it's still not easy to fight." Zhao Yun sighed and said. He had been a civil official in Mount Tai for a long time, and he had a clear understanding of the strength of Yuan Shao's command. The population alone was tens of millions, and the economy was prosperous. There have been few natural disasters in recent years.

"I never thought it was easy to fight, but it's nothing, as long as there are not too many variables, we will win." A sneer appeared on Guo Jia's face, looking back at Jizhou, the hidden dangers he buried there had already taken root.
