Even when Master Shi led his men to march with great fanfare, he didn't know that his every move was being monitored. You must know that these rebels themselves had not received any military training, marched without formation, and moved slowly.

They didn't even send out any sentinels.

However, it is indeed a problem for the rebels that they do not have horses. The few horses they have are used as mounts for the leaders. And even if they have horses, they may not be able to ride them. Most of the people in their team are the most ordinary and lowest level.

Common people have no chance to touch horses at all, let alone riding skills. Even when the leaders ride horses, someone is holding them in front to ensure that they will not fall off the horse, let alone the following.

People.

Living between Rizhao and Zhucheng, at the foot of Ma'er Mountain, a military camp has been set up. In the big tent in the middle, Liu Pei and his men are discussing the military situation. In order to gather the team of Master Shi this time, Liu Pei

He has already used all his wealth! Even the Navy and the Bloody Hand Gang have been mobilized.

With a "report", a man entered the big tent with a bamboo tube. Liu Jiang took the bamboo tube and pulled out the cloth inside and recited it in public. Then there was a noise in the tent. Qi Qitao said dissatisfied

: "Why is General Zhengdong walking so slowly?"

Wu Yizhou also said: "That's right! We have been waiting here for two days for him, and he is still so far away from us!" Others also expressed their dissatisfaction with General Zhengdong.

Liu Pei was very satisfied with everyone's mood. Seeing how they were fighting high-spiritedly, Liu Pei became more confident in this battle! When everyone calmed down, Liu Pei said: "Liu Jiang has made careful arrangements this time, and

You have done some good work along the way! When the battle is won, it will be considered your first success!"

Liu Jiang was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly raised his hands and said, "It's all arranged by the head of the family."

Then Liu Pei said: "But this time we also exposed a problem. That is that we do not have cavalry."

The lack of cavalry is indeed a big problem for Liu Pei. Liu Pei has now gathered all the horses and people who can ride them, but they are only enough to deliver the message. There is no extra horse.

Qi Qitao also muttered: "That's right,

Without cavalry, this is a big problem! But then again, we don’t know how to use cavalry! Who here knows how to ride a horse? Who knows how to fight on horseback?"

After hearing Qi Qitao's words, everyone couldn't help but look at each other. It seemed that no one knew how to fight on horseback. Liu Pei coughed and said: "It doesn't matter. After this battle, we will buy horses and train cavalry. It doesn't matter.

, let’s take it slow! We didn’t know how to fight at the beginning, but now we’re fighting pretty well.”

After Liu Pei said these words, the joyful atmosphere returned to the tent. Liu Jiang asked at this time: "Master, what do you think of this Xu Hongru uprising? Can he succeed?"

Everyone pricked up their ears when they heard this, wanting to hear Liu Pei's opinion. Liu Pei recalled the information in his mind and said: "I don't think it will succeed. Judging from his tactical layout, he can persist.

It’s a year of great luck!”

Several people were surprised when they heard Liu Pei's conclusion. Qi Qitao frowned and said: "No way? According to the news from our detailed work, Xu Hongru now has hundreds of thousands of people in his hands. How can he be so

It’s about to fail!”

Liu Pei looked up at several people and found that the expressions on their faces all supported Qi Qitao's statement. So Liu Pei asked: "Do you also have the same idea?"

Wu Yizhou and Liu Jiang nodded one after another. Liu Pei felt very dissatisfied. He pointed at the map and said: "You only consider the number of people but do not consider other issues. This is wrong! You must know that fighting a war does not depend on the number of people.

! If whoever has the most wins, then no one will fight anymore! Just stand up and line up."

Everyone burst out laughing when they heard this, but they still stared at Liu Pei, wanting to see what specific explanation he would give. And it seemed that he was quite unconvinced.

So Liu Pei said: "Xu Hongru's first mistake after the uprising was that he began to hold on to the city after occupying Zouxian County. His idea was that he wanted to use Zouxian County as a base and then conquer all directions. But he ignored

A question arises, that is, the strength of the imperial court is still there! If he sticks to Zouxian, he will be nailed there, and he can only passively accept the attacks of the imperial army in turns. How can he attack the whole country with one corner?

You can’t win even if you fight!”

Liu Jiang said a little unconvinced: "Even if this is the case, shouldn't it be easy for Xu Hongru to resist the attack of the imperial army with the city in hand? How could it not last even a year?"

Liu Pei pointed at a piece of information on the table and said: "You have all read this information. The above description of Xu Hongru's army is very clear. His army is mainly composed of the most ordinary and lowest-level people.

.They had not received any military training before the uprising, and they just wanted to go against the imperial court with their passion. This is very unrealistic. If you are a warrior if you pick up a sword and a gun, then what else do you have after so long training?

significance?"

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other happily and felt that they seemed to be very great. After a long period of training and several actual combats, these people have long been distinguished from ordinary people. They have really seen blood.

warriors. They are completely different from the farmers who just picked up their swords and guns and put down their hoes! So they feel a little proud.

Liu Pei looked at their expressions and smiled to himself, but he did not intend to expose their sense of superiority. He continued: "I just talked about Xu Hongru's two questions, and now let's talk about his third question. This question is Xu Hongru's.

Hongru's army lacks the ability to attack fortresses. According to our intelligence, in the several county towns they captured previously, either the local chief officials fled, leaving the city leaderless and easily defeated; or they failed to take precautions, which allowed them to easily attack the city.

Think about it, everyone, their recent attacks have basically stopped behind the fortified city."

Several people began to recall the intelligence from the previous period in their hearts. At that time, the intelligence seemed of little use, but after comparison now, you will find that things are indeed as Liu Pei said. Except for the first few cities captured, the rebels had no

If they capture any city, Liu Pei and the others are currently targeting Master Shi's Eastern Expedition Army, and they were beaten to death under Rizhao City. So they already somewhat agree with Liu Pei's views.

But Qi Qitao said unconvinced: "It's impossible not to last even a year! After all, there are hundreds of thousands of people! Even if these hundreds of thousands of people don't resist and let the court kidnap them one by one, I'm afraid they will.
Chapter completed!
