"Report!" A muscular man with a thin body and a yellowish complexion walked in from outside and bowed his hands to Liu Bei and Chen Xi, directly destroying Chen Xi's idea of instilling ideas in Liu Bei.
"Can the grain and fodder that Wen Ze transported this time arrive in the warehouse?" Liu Bei saw Yu Jin approaching, his face became solemn, and he asked solemnly.
"All 80,000 tons of grain and grass have been put into the warehouse, but the Zhen family hopes to come to thank Xuande Gong for his help." Yu Jin bowed his hands and saluted, with a solemn expression without any smile. He did not feel that he had led the new army to defeat the Taishan bandits.
to be proud of.
Liu Bei glanced sideways at Chen Xi and saw Chen Xi nodded slightly, indicating that he understood Chen Xi's plan.
"That's fine, I'm going to meet the Zhen family in Jizhou, who are known as the top five wealthy merchants." Liu Bei said with a smile, "Wen Ze, you are here, Zichuan wants to come and I have something to tell you." After that, he left.
From the look on Chen Xi's face, he understood that the Zhen family planned to bet on him. Although the aristocratic family could not attract him, the powerful and wealthy businessmen were still willing to invest in him.
Chen Xi looked at Yu Jin. Although he promoted this guy from among his generals, he actually saw him only once or twice. He gave him a recruitment order and then sent him to follow Liu Bei with a letter of appointment.
Training the new army, this rescue is a test. It is obvious that Yu Jin has done a very good job, and he is worthy of being one of the five good generals.
"Wen Ze, sitting there, I want to know whether the new army can fight now? Of course, what I ask is not to deal with the regular army, but to deal with the Taishan bandits, and only to gather the defeated Taishan bandits. If there is a rebellion among them...
..." Chen Xi sneered and made a killing move. He was now accustomed to his position. He only understood it when he sat in this position with Chongdian in troubled times.
"There is no problem in dealing with ordinary Taishan bandits, but there are four largest groups of bandits in Mount Tai, named: Taishan Four Bandits. Because of their military management and formation bravery, their bandits are not weaker than ordinary bandits.
The regular army can only be invincible against the regular army and it is difficult to win." Yu Jin said in a matter-of-fact manner without making any big words, and did not underestimate the combat effectiveness of the Taishan bandits.
"Don't worry about Chang Xi, Sun Guan, Wu Dun, and Yili. Someone will deal with their four troops. What I want is for you to gather the bandits. I don't want their men to wander around after defeating these guys. As for Zang
Ba, I think he has been defeated now." Chen Xi said with a smile.
Just before Chen Xi said this, Zang Ba had just been knocked off his horse by Zhang Fei with a snake spear, and his ribs were probably broken in half. Zang Ba's bodyguard, who was said to be as elite as Danyang, was beaten up by Hua Xiong and a group of mentally ill people.
, coupled with Zhang Fei's beating of drums from time to time, he forced Zang Ba's troops to be divided into several pieces in the mountain battle. Zang Ba, who had no choice but to break out, fell into Zhang Fei's hands and was defeated.
To say that Zang Ba's army is not weak, although Hua Xiong and Zhang Fei led 5,000 bandit troops to attack Zang Ba's stronghold, they did not directly defeat Zang Ba's pro-army. Although Zang Ba was unable to react for a while,
The army suppressed it, but when Zang Ba appeared and began to make personal arrangements, the situation was quickly restored.
After that came the competition of bravery and planning, the collision between the formations, Hua Xiong connected all the soldiers, and their auras were densely connected, constantly relying on the formation to squeeze the living space of Zang Ba's troops.
It is said that Hua Xiong's scheduling is actually very average. His cavalry can only play a sharp arrow formation, but they are not proficient and can change formations instantly, even while marching. This is why Hua Xiong became Xiliang
The cavalry commander, because the formation changes so quickly that you have no chance to counterattack.
Now Hua Xiong found that the new troops under his command were all average except for one thing that was terrifying, that was, they followed orders and prohibited them. They changed the formation when they were asked to do so. There was a knife in front of them. If you need to hit the knife to change the formation, these people under his command would not hesitate.
He hit the knife hard and completed the change of formation abruptly.
After discovering this, Hua Xiong almost didn't hesitate at all. He divided and combined various formations, large, medium and small, divided and combined, dispersed but not chaotic, and cut Zang Ba's pro-army force into pieces with a small number of people.
, almost 20% of the soldiers were lost to achieve this goal. Of course, Zang Ba's army also lost 10% of the soldiers, and their morale was completely lost.
This scene made Zhang Fei's whole body go cold, and he looked at Hua Xiong like a god. In ancient times, when the troops were united in battle, those who lost 10% of their soldiers without collapsing could be called elite soldiers. Those who lost 30% of their soldiers without fleeing were considered elites in the world.
But now Hua Xiong had lost 20% of his soldiers and still continued to slaughter Zang Ba's troops with high morale. This was no longer something that ordinary good generals could do.
Naturally, Zhang Fei didn't know that Hua Xiong's group of people had been mentally broken by Hua Xiong, and their awe for death was less than their awe for Hua Xiong. Therefore, as long as they absolutely obey the orders given by Hua Xiong, the morale of this group of people would be greatly affected.
It is said that it did not exist at all, so the high-morale massacre of Zang Ba's troops was actually entirely because Hua Xiong did not give the order to stop.
Not to mention Zhang Fei's heartbroken, Zang Ba was already confused. To be honest, some of the Taishan bandits were directly Danyang soldiers. The combat effectiveness of the bandit army brought by the veterans was almost as good as the famous Danyang elite soldiers at the time. They completely destroyed the current Danyang soldiers. As a result, now
The big man on the opposite side commanded less than one-third of his own soldiers and was defeated, and it was defeated without any suspense.
It is not that Zang Ba's pro-army has never been defeated. They were defeated by four people when they regained Mount Tai's four bandits. They were also defeated by Xuzhou soldiers later, but they were never defeated as cleanly as this. There was no room left at all.
, starting from the opponent's formation change, his failure was like a rolling stone sliding faster and faster, and in the end he was unable to stop it.
Zang Ba wanted to know who he had offended, and why someone would send such a mountain army, which could be said to be the best in the world, to destroy him. Although he was the king of the mountains, he obviously did not make as many mistakes as the Yellow Turbans. This kind of *
*The Corps did not go to exterminate the Yellow Turbans but actually came to him. Twenty percent, a full 20% of the soldiers fell to the ground, but the opponent remained as calm as water, with no intention of fleeing. On the contrary, his own troops were on the verge of fleeing due to 10% of the battle losses.
Zang Ba knew that he had to retreat. The opponent was too strong. He wanted to change his formation many times, but the opponent just broke up his formation with just a few words. This was already an asymmetrical battle. In Zang Ba's case, Zang Ba knew that he had to retreat.
It seems to Ba that he may have met one of the world's greatest masters of military art. He is not bragging. He feels that his own command of troops is not bad, but facing the yellow-faced and indifferent Kansai man opposite, he is not at all.
There is no room for display.
Knowing that he would be defeated, Zang Ba stopped struggling. What he had to do now was to break out, defeat part of the encirclement, then gather his soldiers and use the strength of his soldiers to abandon the formation and break out from the weakest point of the opponent. As for that man, he never wanted to face him again.
Zang Ba did it, and easily rescued a group of soldiers, about a thousand of them. Then without any hesitation, he prepared to carry out the strategy of cutting off the strong men's arms, and directly took the thousand men to drill through the weak area in the northeast corner.
He knows better than anyone else that if he continues, he will be surrounded and annihilated by the opponent.
Breaking out of the encirclement was very simple, as if the opponent had deliberately released it. Zang Ba felt a chill in his heart when he saw this scene, but he had no choice but to rush forward. There was only one person on the other side, a man carrying a snake spear, but
Zang Ba vaguely remembered a person in his mind, but before he could think about it clearly, the opponent's snake spear hit him.
