In a war involving tens of thousands of people, if you make the first contribution in such a situation, you will be able to achieve success in the future.For example, Zhu Jun defeated Lianglong's tens of thousands of troops with 5000 people back then, and was directly granted the title of Marquis, and he could also enter the court as an admonishing doctor.

Give it a go, seal the marquis and worship the general, Liu Bei can smash the Yellow Turban of Zhuo County, can't he, Liu Tao, do it? !

"The two of you need to think carefully. If something unexpected happens, the whole county will have to suffer together!" The prefect is still a little worried, especially if they fail to fight outside the city, then who will protect Zhuo County?

"Leave a group of recruits for you to help you defend Zhuo County!" Zou Jing thought for a while, and finally gave in slightly.Soldiers are recruited and trained at the same time. Some drills are too short to take out, and it is better to stay.

"General, I have to go back to Zhuangzi and mobilize!" Liu Tao stepped forward.

"Well, I also need to go back to mobilize, and gather outside the city tomorrow!" Zou Jing nodded, and then left quickly.

The two left, but the others did not. In the end, the prefect took the lead to discuss the issue of city defense.The premise, of course, was how to defend the city well when Zou Jing was defeated, trapped in the enemy's formation, or even fell due to this.

Among other things, whether or not to let the defeated soldiers return is another question.

Of course, these things had nothing to do with Liu Tao, he went straight back to Zhuangzi, called everyone together, and at the same time told Zou Jing and his plan.

"War outside the city? Thousands vs. tens of thousands?" Even if Liu Tao explained the key points, after hearing this plan, let alone the two civil servants Lu Yan and Jian Yong, the two middle-level leaders Liu Ge and Shangguan Yu, even Guan Yu Both Zhang Fei and Zhang Fei couldn't help exclaiming.

In the end, Liu Tao showed affection and lured him for profit, and finally threatened that everyone in Zhuoxian County would be ruined, so the four of them made up their minds...

Chapter 36

In the early morning of the next day, the detectives reported one after another that the thieves indeed had an army of tens of thousands, and they were approaching Zhuo County little by little.But at that speed, it is estimated that it will be about fifty miles a day at most, and it should reach around Zhuo County tomorrow.

The problem is that along the way, the villages are constantly being destroyed, and the local people are constantly being coerced. In other words, the longer the time, the larger this army will be. At first, it may be [-] to [-]. After arriving in Zhuo County, it may exceed [-]!

"General!" After Liu Tao received the news, he immediately found Zou Jing, "The enemy army is expected to arrive within ten miles of Zhuo County tomorrow evening, but from another perspective, we only need two to three hours to be there. Set up an array fifty miles away.

When the enemy arrives in that area in the evening, it will be the time when we are exhausted. We are waiting for work. At this time, we will charge and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop! "

Zou Jing thought about it, and felt that it would be better to take the initiative to fight than to wait for the enemy to approach slowly and make the soldiers fearful.In this way, not only can the war damage be minimized, but at the same time, as Liu Tao said, the odds of winning are greater!

"Alright, I'll mobilize right away!" Zou Jing immediately stood up and went over to make arrangements.

About a quarter of an hour later, the newly recruited [-] elite soldiers were assembled.Many of them have received news that the Yellow Turban Bandit has begun to go north. For the recruits who have just joined the army for less than a few days, they are more afraid than excited, more timid than brave.

Zou Jing glanced at them, somewhat disappointed in them, pulling out such troops would only hinder them.

Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Liu Bei's 100 people neatly arranged, but they were the odd ones among the 5000 people. He nodded immediately. It seems that there are still excellent talents in the army!

"Don't talk nonsense, I'll just talk straight!" Zou Jing looked down at the 5000 people at the first place, "There are tens of thousands of yellow scarf thieves heading north, and they will arrive in Zhuo County tomorrow evening at the most. But I didn't plan to wait until they Arriving, I thought about setting up an army fifty miles away first, and waiting for work to destroy them..."

Everyone trembled when they heard the words, how to fight thousands against tens of thousands?In the past few days, they have almost learned to line up and raise their guns. At most, they learned how to stab, and they didn't learn anything else.

"Are you scared?" Zou Jing looked at the 5000 people. "Don't forget, you are all from Zhuojun. The thieves are now going north. If you don't stop them, then they will bring disaster to your hometown. When the time comes, your hometown, your family , or be killed by them, or be coerced by them into thieves! If you step back now, your family members will be exposed to the blade of thieves!"

When Zou Jing said that, many people immediately calmed down. They can leave, but can the family members leave?In fact, they have no choice. Facing the thief, they either fight to the death or follow the thief!To be honest, there are really hundreds of people, thinking silently in their hearts, or they should just be thieves!

"What are you afraid of?" Zou Jing shouted immediately when he saw this, "Those yellow scarf thieves are just a group of farmers who have just put down their farm tools. They are no different from you. It's just who is braver when they fight. We are all Yanzhao boys. Who have you been afraid of? Besides, have you ever thought about it, this is tens of thousands of thieves, if they can be broken, then how much credit would it be?!"

Immediately, he drew out his saber, raised it up and shouted: "Make meritorious deeds, be honored as a general, and now you have the opportunity to put it in front of you! This general is for you, do you have the guts to take it!?"

"Yes!" Liu Bei shouted immediately, and the soldiers in his village also responded one after another.Then some courageous soldiers responded, and in the end, although scattered, all the 5000 people responded one after another.

"Relax, I don't ask you all to go!" Zou Jing looked at the crowd, "I have thought about it, the soldiers are good but not many, but those who have the courage, in units of five, stand in line on the left! No courage Yes, stand on the right and choose immediately!"

Liu Bei didn't say a word, and immediately led the soldiers from Bentun to the left.Infected by it, another group of soldiers passed by.However, there are many people who are afraid. They heard that they don't have to go, and they chose to go to the right side.

In the end there were 3000 left on the left and 2000 on the right.At this time, there are some people on the left who are ready to move, and they seem to regret choosing this side.

"If you regret it, go, I won't force you!" Zou Jing looked at the square formation on the left, and said slowly, "But if you stay, then if you take a step back on the battlefield, you will definitely be killed!"

So thousands of people passed to the right, and only 2000 people did not choose to leave.Most of them are from Zhuojun, and they have family members at home. They can't escape, and they can't escape, so they can only bite the bullet and stay!

"Okay, you are all excellent men from Yanzhao!" Zou Jing praised, "You immediately form a team and re-elect the commander and military marquis... By the way, Liu Bei! You will be the commander of the army and command 1000 of them! "

"Here!" Liu Bei immediately replied in surprise, he didn't expect that he would be promoted to Army Sima just by making a choice.

This army Sima's gold content is not high, maybe he will be disbanded if he calms down the Yellow Turban Bandit, but before the Yellow Turban Bandit crusade is over, he may even go one step further! 1000 people and 100 people, the credit that can be made is a completely different concept!

"As for the rest, leave it to the commander of the county to help defend the city! If you don't have the guts to go out, then guard the city well. If we are unfortunately defeated, then you will be the last barrier of Zhuo County!" Zou Jing looked at the others. 3000 people.

"Here..." The answers are naturally sparse. This group of courageous guys probably won't be able to defend the city when the thieves come over, but they may surrender.

Zou Jing saw it all, and would explain to the sheriff later, asking him to keep an eye on the 3000 people.

After finishing all this, he led his troops to the outside of the city and joined Liu Tao's thousand soldiers.Since it was a local battle, they would come back a day or so before and after, so they didn't bring heavy soldiers. They only carried about two days of dry food per person, and then they began to gather.

There are 2000 people in Zou Jing's headquarters, and there are 200 cavalry. He will agree to the field battle, largely because of the [-] cavalry.Cavalry cannot be effective when defending the city, only when fighting in the field, the combat effectiveness is the highest.

At the same time, there are [-] long spears, [-] sword shield soldiers, and [-] archers.Considering the situation this time, two hundred archers stayed in Zhuo County to defend the city, and only brought two thousand soldiers into battle.Finally, there were two thousand pikemen, all mobilized recruits.

On Liu Tao's side, there are [-] spearmen, [-] sword and shield soldiers, [-] archers, and finally [-] cavalry.Also considering that the archers are not available, they stayed in Zhuo County to defend the city.

Naturally, Lu Yan and Jian Yong stayed.When necessary, they will bring a thousand heavy soldiers and a hundred archers into Zhuo County to assist the prefect in defending the city.

"Don't try to be brave, it's really not good, you can go back." Before the expedition, Lu Yan came to Liu Tao to persuade him.

"Second brother, don't stop me from making achievements!" Liu Tao said with a smile. To be honest, he was really nervous.Unlike the previous group fights, this time it is really going head-to-head with tens of thousands of people.

"In short, you have to be careful!" Lu Yan sighed, and then said goodbye to the three brothers.

"Let's go!" Zou Jing gave an order, and five thousand soldiers began to march towards the south...

Chapter 37

"Hurry up, follow up!" Zou Jing urged the front, and the cavalry behind was also in charge of supervising the army, urging the soldiers to move forward quickly.Hurry up to fifty miles away, then you can rest for a while.

"Deran, I didn't expect that we could become comrades." On the way, Liu Bei came over to say hello.Zou Jing found a horse for him. What Liu Tao didn't expect was that his riding skills were better than his own, and he could sit on the horse easily and securely without using stirrups.

He can do what he wants to say, and he does have experience in horseback riding.It's just that I haven't ridden for a long time, and I have made up for it recently, so that the memory and practical operation can be synchronized, but it is still not as easy as Liu Bei.

In this battle, it is impossible to lead the army to charge. There are [-] friendly troops in front. The militia from the headquarters stayed behind as instructed, mainly to supervise the recruits.At the same time, beside him, there are fifty soldiers from the same family.Even so, Liu Tao still has no idea.

"Well, I didn't expect my brother to join the army." Liu Tao replied slowly, in fact, it was just teasing: Who said earlier that there were relatives who needed to be taken care of at home?

"I hesitated at home for several days, and explained the situation to my mother. She encouraged me to fight for it if I had an idea. To be honest, Bei even thought about joining the militia..." Liu Bei said with a smile, with a humble look.

"Brother, if you still have this idea, my militia welcomes you." Liu Tao smiled gently at him.If he really entered the militia, there was always a way to kill him.

"It's a pity, now that I have been recruited to join General Zou, I can't go to Qin Muchu." Liu Bei shook his head.

"That's the truth..." Liu Tao smiled lightly and refused to comment.

Liu Bei really wanted to chat a few more words, but he realized that Liu Tao was just having an affair, knowing that he was not interested, so he kept silent.

"Brother, if you charge forward, please follow me!" At this time, Guan Yu came to Liu Tao's side.
