"General Xu! Dong Zhuo is nepotistic and cannot know the right people. If you are the commander of our army this time." "I think it is impossible for us to break through your defense line. Dong Zhuo's failure is his own fault."
In Su Fan's military camp, Xi Zhicai looked at Xu Rong who was silent and kept talking.
"My lord is different. You should be able to see these days that if you know people well and appoint them well, you have a reputation for knowing people, and you firmly believe in appointing people on their merits. As long as you have the ability, you will definitely be given the status and rights to use your abilities."
"I believe that General Announcement and General Uncle-Nephew have also communicated with you before. You also understand their previous identities."
"My lord doesn't care about your origin. No matter you are from a first-class family or a member of the market, as long as you have the ability, you will be able to rise to the top."
"To tell you the truth, our strength is not weaker than Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo has hundreds of thousands of Xiliang elites under his command, and he controls millions of forbidden troops. He is indeed the best in the world."
"However, he is not compatible with the nobles. Luoyang seems to be under his control, but in fact he is now in danger."
"The Prime Minister has millions of strong troops to suppress him, and the princes of Guandong are unable to break through Hulao Pass." Xu Rong, who had been silent for a long time, responded.
"Yes, Hulao Pass is the most powerful pass in the world. There are hundreds of thousands of strong troops stationed there. Even if there are tens of millions of troops, it will be difficult to break through."
"But is Dong Zhuo really at ease? The army under Dong Zhuo is too complicated. There are Xiliang elites from his direct lineage, Bingzhou Army and Forbidden Army."
"Although the Xiliang Army suppressed it, so that the Bingzhou Army and the Forbidden Army did not dare to act rashly, they could suppress it for a while, but they could not suppress it forever. Your Xiliang Army was arrogant and domineering in Luoyang City, robbing at will, and causing anger and resentment."
"Luoyang City is like a furnace, sooner or later it will explode from within."
Xi Zhicai said calmly: "General Xu is willing to accompany Dong Zhuo to be blown to pieces. Even if you are willing, will your family be willing?"
"General Xu, you are not a direct descendant of Xiliang. Even if you have outstanding abilities, it is difficult to get ahead. Why not follow my lord and make achievements? There are tens of millions of people and hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers under my rule. In the future,,,,,
"
"And General Xu, you don't have to worry about your family. The lord has already sent someone to take your family over."
When Xi Zhicai walked out of the tent, a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"Zhicai, how are you?"
"Haha! Don't worry, my lord, Xu Rong is not a foolish and loyal person, and Dong Zhuo is not worthy of his foolish loyalty."
"very good!"
Su Fan nodded with a smile on his face. When the time comes, he will have another general, and this general will be different from the generals like Taishi Cichen who charge into battle.
This is a commanding general. There are actually very few such generals. In the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, although famous generals emerged in large numbers, most of the generals were actually more of the charging type, such as Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Lu Bu, etc.
There are four factions of military strategists, or they are called four forces: military strategy, military form, military yin and yang, and military skills.
The core of the strategy is to calculate the odds and how to win in advance. Before the soldiers and horses are moved, the commander's heart will move first. This faction is valued for stability and safety. The victory and defeat are clear in the mind. The enemy and we have no plan to win.
Regardless of whether you lose or not, the deduction is completed earlier.
The core of this school is clever calculation and strategy, which requires a strong overall view, strategy, and military strategy, and its representative figure is the military immortal Han Xin.
The core of the military situation lies in the use of tactics before the battle. Only by controlling the army like an arm and knowing how to arrange troops, attack and defend, advance and retreat, charge and withdraw troops, etc. can we maximize the victory of the war.
This faction advocates the temporary adaptation of the enemy's soul and the extremely high requirement of military support for generals, because they often need to charge into battle and take the lead, in order to stimulate the morale of the three armies and achieve the strongest combat effectiveness.
The representative figure is Xiang Yu in the late Qin Dynasty. It can be said that he is the ancestor of the Yongzhan faction. Most of the generals in the Three Kingdoms era in the late Han Dynasty were members of this faction.
The core of Yin and Yang in military affairs is that things beyond human control, such as time and place, celestial phenomena, geography, and other things that cannot be controlled and changed, can become beneficial to one's own side and harmful to the enemy.
Characters of this sect are like gods and ghosts, communicating with Yin and Yang and understanding the phenomena of the sky. They often choose places in the world that are beneficial to them in battles. The representative figure of this sect is Zhuge Liang.
The core of military skills is to improve all the strength of the army. You can use it even if you have never led a soldier in a war. Soldier skills are very practical and can be effective quickly. Improve the physical fitness of soldiers, strengthen military discipline, provide sufficient and timely food and grass supplies, and innovate and invent practical weapons.
Equipment, specific methods of managing an army, and soldiers working together are all a type of military skills.
This sect is the least famous among the four sects of military strategists, but the further they go, the more powerful they become, despite the advancement of technology.
And Su Fan now belongs to the representative of this faction, using powerful logistics and advanced weapons and equipment to crush the enemy.
The reason why Niu Fu's Xiliang army was suppressed by him was because of this. Let alone Niu Fu, even Xu Rong had absolutely nothing to do against him.
Xu Rong himself is a bit like a military strategist, but his experience is much different, but he has the potential.
There is no distinction between the four sects of military strategists, only whether they are suitable or not. For example, this military skill may be very suitable for Su Fan, but another person may not be able to do it.
There are no limitations to other technological productivity.
Military strategy often indicates a handsome man, military form represents a brave general, and military yin and yang represent an all-rounder.
No matter what, Su Fan was very happy to be able to conquer such a future handsome man. Being handsome means being able to command large-scale wars, which is often the shortcoming of brave generals.
However, Xu Rong does not have these shortcomings. Not to mention the two sides making a judgment, after all, they are incomparable.
It is not unheard of for some military generals to lead thousands of troops to defeat an army of tens of thousands.
Of course, in Su Fan's eyes, handsome men are more useful to him. After all, future wars will require handsome men who can command large-scale battles.
It is difficult for Chen Dao and Tai Shici to have such ability. It is not said that they are incapable, but they are not fully qualified.
And Xu Rong has such an ability. In the operation of large corps, the connection between various arms must be taken into consideration.
In this regard, Su Fan can't do it either. Even though he has been living in his heart for more than a hundred years, there are really very few people who can actually lead an army.
So he needed to find someone to command the three armies. In the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, was there such a person? Of course there was. Zhuge Kongming and Zhou Yu were the top figures among them, and of course Sima Yi also counted.
The experienced Cao Cao can also do it, but Cao Cao is a monarch and naturally has a slight advantage in making clever military plans.
In addition, there are very few commanders who can command the three armies. In the later period, Lu Xun, Jiang Wei, and Deng Ai also count.
In particular, Lu Xun's commander-in-chief was not much worse than Zhou Yu. It can be said that the four major governors of Soochow had good commanding abilities.
But the only ones who are truly top-notch are Zhuge Kongming and Sima Yi. Both of them were scholars, but their ability to lead troops in battle put many generals to shame.
Especially Zhuge Kongming, who is considered to be at the forefront of the Martial Arts Temple.
Later generations of the Internet did not have a high evaluation of Zhuge Kongming. That was because his political talents were too outstanding and people misunderstood him.
Zhuge Liang's military talent, in Su Fan's eyes, was definitely among the top three in the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period.
With the power of Shu, Wei, which was suppressed in the early stage, was almost breathless.
Unfortunately, the potential of Shu is still too low.
