The portable magic tower of the Three Kingdoms

At least until there is a fixed site that can provide food and taxes, too many soldiers will only be a burden.

The point is that there is no way to count on the court, or that Liu Yan will support his army, unless he completely surrenders to him and becomes his subordinate.No way, in the end, I will go to Bashu with him four years later.

Yizhou is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but at the same time it is also difficult to get out.There is also a shortage of horses. There are horses on the Dianchi Lake. The Dian horses are famous even in later generations, but they can only be regarded as mountain transport horses, not suitable for charging on the plains, let alone pony horses.

Since he had already produced stirrups and horseshoes in advance, as a price, he had to choose a site in the north where he could get horses.Liangzhou, Youzhou and Bingzhou are the top choices.Yizhou is definitely not in his reference range.

"Brother's consideration is also reasonable, I will communicate with them." Lu Yan nodded, mainly because he did not consider this factor, and now he also feels that there is really no need to replenish troops.

As far as the combat effectiveness of this unit is concerned, especially the spells that Liu Tao knows, unless it is a major decision-making error, it is almost impossible for them to cause a large number of casualties.

"Besides, since we have come to Julu County, we should go to the teacher directly for the follow-up repayment!" Liu Tao continued.

"The premise is that I have to send people to Wuji County first to get some lime...Three thousand human heads are not easy to nitrate." Lu Yan shook his head. The calculation of military merit depends on the head.

"Anyway, we're not in a hurry, just rest for a few days, explore the forest one after another, and wipe out the thieves." Liu Tao replied.

"It's true..." Lu Yan smiled knowingly and left the camp. He really needed to go back and take a rest.

Zhang Fei and Liu Ge were somewhat disappointed when they heard that they would no longer recruit soldiers.But Lu Yan also informed the two of the situation, so naturally it is not easy to continue entanglement.I can only go back and reorganize the soldiers, but there are less than 500 people in the end, and the phalanx is a bit ugly.

Zhang Bao could bear his temper, and in the next three days, he insisted on not sending anyone out of the city.The only action was to transfer all the soldiers from the several villages in the east back to the city, depending on the situation, they planned to defend to the death.

"Is it useful to stick to it?" Zhang Fei came back on horseback. He just went over to investigate, "We can go directly south!"

"Then he came to fight with his tail, that's all." Guan Yu looked further, "You can even continue to go north... There are only a thousand soldiers in Lunu County."

Why did Lu Zhi let them go south, not only to prevent Zhang Bao from going south to support, but mainly to prevent them from going north.In case they wiped out Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang in Guangzong, but if Zhang Bao went north to the corrupt area, the matter would not be over.

So it is obviously impossible to go south or something. Before Zhang Bao is destroyed, they are destined not to go south.

"Hiss... third brother, do you realize this when you mention this treasure?" Zhang Fei was a little worried.

"So what if he realizes it?" Unknowingly, Lu Yan also came over, and he discussed this issue with Liu Tao in the past three days, "Unless he is not worried about his elder brother and third younger brother, he will definitely not go north easily. "

"At the same time, it is estimated that he will do everything possible to defeat us." Jian Yong also came to join in the fun, "It is said that he should have thousands of soldiers under his command, why didn't he come out and fight us?"

Even if it's five thousand, five thousand versus two thousand five hundred, no matter what, it's his side that has the upper hand.

"It's probably because he doesn't have cavalry under his command..." Lu Yan laughed.

While several people were discussing this matter, at the same time, a battle report had been sent to Lu Zhi.At the same time, earlier, when crossing the Hutuo River, the heads of the thieves who were beheaded were also sent to the barracks.

The day before yesterday, a battle report came from the north, saying that when Liu Tao crossed the Hutuo River, he defeated 2000 rebel soldiers and killed [-] enemies.The key battle damage was too low, and Lu Zhi still didn't believe it. As a result, more than [-] heads were shipped today.

"Is there really almost no battle damage?" Seeing another battle report from the north, Lu Zhi had to ask.

"If it was the Hutuohe incident, there were indeed not many casualties. At most, some soldiers were disabled and could not be retired." The messenger quickly replied.

"Then what about this time?" Lu Zhi looked at the battle report and couldn't believe it. Kui Ye crossed the river and launched a surprise attack, with 200 battle reports, attacking more than [-] thieves on the other side.As a result, less than [-] of our own troops were killed and disabled, and [-] thieves were killed...

"The head will be delivered in about two days." The messenger replied affirmatively.

"This Deran...is he a natural general?" Lu Zhi couldn't help feeling emotional at this moment.

Chapter 113 Lu Zhi's Fatherly Love

Lu Zhi suddenly realized that he didn't seem to know this apprentice very well.

At that time, there were many disciples who worshiped under him, and the more 'conspicuous' ones were Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan.It's not that the two are so studious, but that their personalities are so distinct that people can't forget them no matter what.

As for Liu Deran, coming here with Liu Bei gave the impression that he followed Liu Bei, like a follower.

It was only recently that he sent people over to make contact with him, only to find out that he had recruited a militia in Zhuo County, and even recruited his eldest son to take up the position of 'Military Adviser'.In the key follow-up, Liu Yan was appointed Sima of the other department.

Until recently, according to his military order, he went south and fought two battles around Xiaquyang, defeating tens of thousands of thieves. He only felt that there was an unreal feeling.Thinking about it, he doesn't seem to know much about this army.

Also, generally speaking, how much combat power can a militia have?

"Can you tell me about the battles your militia fought after it was established?" Lu Zhi looked at the messenger. He needed to know more, more information!

"Yes..." The messenger was considered a veteran, and he didn't dare to be negligent when he heard the words. He told all the wars that had happened since the beginning of the army.

Slowly he found that the more he talked, the more exciting Lu Zhi's expression became.Originally, he looked mature and prudent, but later he was a little shocked, which made him a little proud.

"That is to say, you have defeated at least [-] bandit soldiers?" Lu Zhi was surprised, "A recruit?"

"Almost all the new recruits surrendered directly. Those who can face the tough ones are all veterans and elite soldiers of the Yellow Turban Bandit." The messenger replied.

"..." Seeing that the messenger was so confident, Lu Zhi didn't know what to say.Dare the recruits to see your militia, and they surrendered directly?Such a good thing, why didn't I encounter it?

I don't even think about it, they started from Hanoi, walked all the way to Weijun to kill here, faced tens of thousands of 10,000+ bandit soldiers, how cautious they were, and even gave up some small battlefields in exchange for victory in the big battlefield.

Along the way, only less than [-] of the [-] soldiers remained. Otherwise, how could they be fighting so hard now?

The only thing that gave him peace of mind was that Liu Tao was still acting like a civil servant. He hadn't seen him for a few years, and suddenly picked up a weapon, turned into a super warrior, and personally went into battle to kill the enemy or something.

However, if the battle damage can be controlled to this extent, basically all the way, it will be less victory and more victory, and it will still be a big victory.This highlights his powerful command and command ability.

"Why didn't I realize that kid has such a high talent in this area?" Lu Zhi couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Judging from the current situation, perhaps as long as he is given a period of time, maybe a month, maybe two months, he might be able to defeat Quyang.As for him, after two months, he didn't know if he could completely wipe out Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang's troops.

No way, when the time comes, they will solve Xia Quyang first, and then go south to support them, right?If it really came to that point, it is estimated that many generals in the army will have some opinions.

"In the battle situation in Zhongshan County, I will arrange personnel to go to Lunu County to verify. If there is nothing wrong, I will naturally show credit to the court." Lu Zhi nodded. He was worried that the local government would swallow Liu Tao's credit, so he planned to initiative.

No way, my son is also in it, and his son also has a share of these credits!

When it comes to his family, Lu Zhi has no choice but to be more active.In the early years, he studied everywhere and rarely returned home. In recent years, he has become famous, his official career has also begun to rise, and his apology to his family has become heavier.

Besides, Lu Yan's credit is also the result of his hard work, and has nothing to do with favoritism.Within a reasonable range, Lu Zhi intends to strive for more benefits for Liu Tao, especially Lu Yan.

He knows the price better, that is the battle of Xia Quyang, it must be their militia, the last battlefield!

"Speaking of which, these young people can really make a fuss..." Lu Zhi counted their contributions, "If you count all of Xia Quyang, after the war, you can count the military exploits, and you can't get away with Xiaolian. If you let it out, let alone the local county magistrate, Even serving as a frontier sheriff is fine."

In fact, what he hopes most is that Liu Tao and Lu Yan can come to Luoyang to become officials. Maybe the positions are relatively low, but there is more room for improvement in the future.The key is whether to be an official in the imperial court, whether to be an official in the imperial court for more than two generations, this is the basis of becoming a family.

Wait a minute, in fact, it may not be a civil servant.With his talent, after a period of time in the frontier army, he might grow even bigger.

His initial consideration was from his and Lu Yan's point of view.After all, on the side of the civil servants, he can help take care of him, plus other colleagues, so old and so on, mainly because he can take care of Lu Yan.

But from Liu Tao's point of view, he found that generals might be more suitable for him.

These days, it is mainly the funds for the ten regular servants card, so the life of the generals is not easy, but the status of the generals is not as miserable as after the Song Dynasty. Even if the military is united, even the civil servants and the ten permanent servants can't ignore it.

Let’s say that Zhu Jun is actually a representative of the military this time, Lu Zhi is a representative of civil servants; Strictly speaking, Huangfusong is an imperial party. It's also closer.
