Eight hundred and thirty fifth chapter vows to send troops
Chapter 835: Pledge to send troops
Yuan Shu couldn't help but laugh after hearing Dian Wei's words.
"Nothing, I just feel that as the war progresses, the 10,000-strong army is not enough, so I also want to expand the army and horses to better protect the lord."
Dian Wei couldn't help but blush when he heard Yuan Shu's words. He didn't care about fame and fortune, but if there were 20,000 guards, Yuan Shu could be better protected.
"Don't worry, ten thousand people are enough. I have prepared good things for the guards."
Yuan Shu gave Dian Wei a mysterious smile.
"Um?
What good things has your lord prepared?"
Dian Wei was stunned. Yuan Shu had prepared something good, and he was really looking forward to it.
"Haha, it just so happens that I am going to the craftsmanship camp. You can come with me and have a look."
Yuan Shu did not say anything, but took Dian Wei to the craftsman camp.
"Lord."
Seeing Yuan Shu coming with Dian Wei, everyone in the Craftsman Camp saluted him.
"Don't worry about me, just go about your business."
Yuan Shu waved his hand and signaled them to go about their business.
Now the Capital Craftsmanship Camp has been improved again compared to the original. Not only has the place expanded outwards again, but the number of apprentices has significantly increased. Yuan Shu's generous treatment for the Craftsmanship Camp has attracted many young people to join, and the number of apprentices in the Wu'an direction has been greatly improved.
The iron mine is also being excavated. I believe that as long as the construction there can be completed, my strength will be further improved.
"Mr. Wen, how's it going?"
Yuan Shu looked at Zheng Hun in front of him and asked him directly how he had completed what he had given him.
"My lord, fortunately you have fulfilled your mission. Ten thousand pieces of armor have been made."
Zheng Hun smiled and nodded at Yuan Shu. He had already completed what Yuan Shu had asked him to do.
"Okay, then Dianwei, let's go together to see the gift I gave you and also to the guards."
Hearing that Zheng Hun had completed the task assigned to him, Yuan Shu also nodded.
"A gift from the Guards?"
Dian Wei looked at Yuan Shu with excitement on his face.
"Let's go."
Zheng Hun took the lead, with Yuan Shu and Dian Wei following behind him, and went directly to the place where the finished armor was stored in the craftsman camp.
"My lord, general, here are ten thousand pieces of iron armor, and ten thousand matching jade sabers."
Zheng Hun pointed to the iron armor and a long-handled saber in front of him and directly reported the quantity.
"Is this the iron armor and sword that the lord equipped the guards?"
Dian Wei's mood immediately jumped up when he heard Zheng Hun's words. The lord had prepared this for himself and the guards.
"Well, these are all prepared for the guards. Yuan Shao has Euphorbia soldiers. How can I, Yuan Shu, not be as good as him? The guards will also become armored guards from today on. If you still want to add more troops, I can
I promise you, but these iron armors and jade swords will be given to others first."
Yuan Shu looked at Dian Wei with a playful smile on his lips.
"No, no, no, ten thousand iron-armored troops are enough."
What Dian Wei wants now is to increase his troops. Having these ten thousand iron armors and jade swords is no better. If he wants the establishment of ten thousand soldiers now, he would be a fool.
"Haha, why don't you send someone over to get the iron armor?"
Yuan Shu looked at Dian Wei and spoke directly to him.
"promise."
Dian Wei immediately became excited and immediately left to go to the Guards to find someone to move the armor prepared here.
"Lord, in addition to these iron armors, I also made three thousand additional pairs of iron armors and three thousand pairs of vests."
Watching Dian Wei leave happily, Zheng Hun cupped his fist at Yuan Shu again.
"oh?
Take me to see it."
Hearing Zheng Hun's words, Yuan Shu also became energetic for a while. He did not expect that there would be an unexpected gain.
"My lord, please follow me."
Zheng Hun nodded to Yuan Shu, and then led Yuan Shu to the other side.
I saw a war horse wearing armor on the school field there, and a knight also wearing armor running back and forth on the battlefield. A strong sense of oppression was already coming towards me.
Looking at the galloping armored knights, Yuan Shu's eyes flashed with a different look. One of them had already felt it. If three thousand or even thirty thousand knights attacked at the same time, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the world would collapse.
"What are the limitations of this horse armor?"
To be honest, he had only heard of the armored knights and had never seen one before. However, the most famous iron pagoda was one that could equal ten, so he really wanted to know what the limitations of these things were.
"My lord, horse armor and human armor are very heavy. I have experimented with many war horses. Only good horses from Xiliang can handle them calmly. However, the battle should not last too long, otherwise the war horses will risk losing their strength."
Zheng Hun directly told Yuan Shu the results of his experiment. After all, this was a very serious matter, and what should be said should be said.
"That's enough. The war in Xiliang is over. The war horses are not a problem. As for the problem you said about not being able to fight for a long time, that's not a problem either. The armored knights are used to open up the battle. It's good if they can break through the ground."
For Yuan Shu, the problems mentioned by Zheng Hun were not a problem. Heavy cavalry was never used for fierce battles. His greatest role was to tear apart the enemy formation and open a channel for the following cavalry. The issue of endurance did not need to be considered at all.
"If that's the case, then it's no problem."
Hearing Yuan Shu's words, Zheng Hun also nodded.
"Well, the vests and human armors will continue to be built. I want to build a team of armored knights. These three thousand suits of armor will go to the Sizhou battlefield with the army this time."
"promise."
As time went by, the weather became warmer and warmer, and the reorganization of the armies was basically completed. It was time to take care of Li Jue and Guo Si.
Yuan Shu took the oath of surrender in Jizhou, and then led the guards, 20,000 foreign cavalry and 20,000 civilian regiments to start marching towards Yanzhou. At the same time, Tian Feng in Yanzhou also prepared sufficient food and grass to wait for Yuan Shu's arrival, and Zhao Yun in the direction of Jincheng also
The troops are ready to attack Yongzhou at any time.
Just when Yuan Shu was marching to Yanzhou, the news that he had pledged to send troops quickly spread throughout the Han Dynasty. After Yuan Shu got the news, he immediately ordered Yuzhou to be on full alert. At the same time, he sent 30,000 troops from Nanyang to Yuzhou to prevent Yuan Shu from possible attacks.
attack.
"General, Yuan Shu vowed to fight in the west in Jizhou and is now heading to Sizhou."
Soon the scouts spread the news to Li Jue and Guo Si in Chang'an.
"Immediately invite Jia Xu to come over to discuss matters."
After receiving this news, Li Jue and others did not dare to neglect, and immediately called Jia Xu over for discussion.
Soon Jia Xu arrived at Li Jue's mansion. Looking at the four generals in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"I wonder why the general called me here?"
Although I don't know the specific circumstances of calling him here, it may only be Yuan Shu who can bring the four of them together now.
"Yuan Jiujiu has already pledged to send troops to Jizhou. The target this time is probably us. I have recruited you here to ask you to make a move. How can we make Yuan Shu retreat his troops?"
Li Jue looked at Jia Xu and directly told him the news he had just received.
Jia Xu was so stupid after hearing what Li Jue said. Yuan Shu vowed to send troops. You asked me to find a way to make them retreat. I am a human being, not a god.
Last time the Han Emperor diverted water to the east and bought Yongzhou a lot of time to recuperate, but what did you do?
There is no military expansion and preparation for war, no defense rectification, just drinking and having fun.
Now that they are calling you, why are you panicking?
"Generals, this time Yuan Shu defeated Yangzhou in one fell swoop and captured the Han Emperor in his hands. Cao Mengde and Yuan Benchu who were still fighting in Jingzhou lost their troops and generals. Now that he has recuperated and his troops are fully prepared to attack, it will be very difficult for him to withdraw his troops rashly.
