More than a hundred prisoners were captured in the First World War, and how to deal with these prisoners became a thorny problem.

It has been rumored since ancient times that the killing of prisoners is unknown. Liu Bei now knows that this is nonsense. The so-called unknown killing of prisoners is because after killing prisoners, the corpses are prone to breed plague. On the contrary, if you know how to prevent the epidemic, you will have no fear of killing prisoners.

Now, Liu Bei knows all about the methods of epidemic prevention, but he is still unwilling to kill people at will.

Almost none of the more than a hundred prisoners were in good condition, and all of them were injured. The prisoners' clothes and armor were stripped off, they were locked up naked and guarded together. Liu Bei interrogated the prisoners and asked them about the situation in Nanpi City.

, as well as the enemy's troop strength, food and other information. Most of the prisoners were low-level soldiers and could not answer much important information.

From the answers of the prisoners, we learned that this group of enemy troops were indeed Wuhuan people from the north, who had traveled south all the way here. As for the enemy's strength, food and other information, we only knew that all the looted food and grass were in Nanpi City, and the exact number was unknown.

After the interrogation, these Wuhuan soldiers prisoners were of little value. Generally speaking, if you capture prisoners, you can chop off their heads and build a temple to scare the enemy. But if this is the case, the heads will be piled up in one place, and the rotten heads will attract the attention of the enemy.

Mosquitoes and flies are flying around, and if you are not careful, a plague will arise.

The best way to dispose of a body is to bury it immediately on the spot.

Liu Bei glanced around at the Wuhuan soldiers with disheveled hair and dull expressions. Thinking of how many Han people had been killed by these Wuhuan soldiers who burned, killed and looted, Liu Bei's eyes grew cold.

Liu Bei ordered the prisoners to be taken outside and beheaded, and specifically ordered the [Lishi Camp] to be responsible for the execution.

There is no use in raising captives, and they also consume food, so they can only be cut down.

Zhou Cang, the commander of the Lishi Battalion, was not in the army. Liu Bei arranged for Zhou Cang to follow Li Mengxi to the rear. Except Zhou Cang, all the members of the Lishi Battalion were present.

Everyone in the Lux Battalion is tough and strong. Everyone wears heavy armor and holds a big axe. They are the most elite heavy armor force in the army. Since the establishment of the Lux Battalion, they have not yet encountered a tough battle.

When the soldiers of the Hercules Battalion were executing the execution, Liu Bei took a look on the side. A prisoner was kneeling and pinned down by the pit. A heavily armored warrior picked up a big ax and made a click. The prisoner's head fell off at the sound, and blood spurted out from his neck.

Far away.

After beheading a person, the soldier wielding the ax grabbed the head and joked with his comrades to show it off. This man actually boasted that his ax was fast and sharp, and that no one else could compare with him.

Liu Bei watched from the sidelines and saw that the big men in the Lishi camp were very strong and had heavy axes. The axes moved up and down, chopping people's heads like melons and vegetables. What's more, this group was composed of yellow scarf warriors who crawled out from the dead.

In the Lishi Camp, the fierce soldiers are used to seeing blood, and seeing blood is normal. For this reason, there are many ordinary soldiers in the army who are not as good as others.

Although, it has not yet been seen whether the Lux Battalion can cut down the cavalry and horse legs, and whether it can defeat the heavy cavalry with the body of infantry, but the Lux Battalion seems to have an elite appearance.

After a while, the head was beheaded, and the beheaded adjutant of the Lux Battalion came over to report to Liu Bei, "General, all the prisoners have been executed!" the adjutant said with his fists clasped.

The adjutant was wearing a full-body iron cover, and only the outline of the figure was visible. Due to the execution, a lot of blood was spattered on the armor. In addition, the man was tall and strong, and looked formidable. Liu Bei couldn't help but look at it more.

Two eyes.

Liu Bei nodded, "It's done, sprinkle some white ash and fill the hole."

When the soldiers started to fill the hole, Liu Bei couldn't help but think that after a battle, there would be a lot of dead bodies. It would take a lot of digging to dig enough holes to bury people. So, what's the use of the dead bodies?

(What use can a dead body have?) Liu Bei shook his head and left.

Dead bodies actually have great uses. Humans are advanced animals. What resources are available in animals can also be found in humans.

Li Mengxi, the military advisor of the Julu Army, knew six methods of supplying supplies for marching and combat operations. There were six methods: gathering method, fishing and hunting method, feeding method, purchasing method, seizure method, and, the most extreme one, which has emerged endlessly throughout history, using human beings for food.

This method is also a supply method.

After all the chores were taken care of, Liu Bei took a pen and paper and went to collect "tactics of war".

The soldiers who participated in the war discussed their gains after the war. They had been discussing for a long time, and Liu Bei approached them one by one.

When I asked the first group of soldiers about their harvest after the war, Shi Chang replied that there were not enough axes and it took him a long time to break the barrel of the gun.

Liu Bei thought about it carefully and realized that this was indeed a shortcoming. He might start from the establishment department and the armaments department. Liu Bei thought of military judges. The military judges held beheading axes, which were suitable for splitting spears and halberds, making military judges wander.

After entering the formation, he can not only help cut off the javelin when needed, but also supervise the battle behind the formation, killing two birds with one stone.

A useful strategy had been obtained. After Liu Bei wrote it down in detail, he gave the commander a military ticket and told him to go to the logistics officer to get the supplies later.

During this incident, another soldier looked at others, then at Liu Bei, and he hesitated and said, "General, do you want to put a board on the car?"

Liu Bei didn't know why, and he had doubts on his face, "Where to add the board? Please tell me."

It's okay not to ask, but when asked, the soldier scratched his head and hesitated and couldn't answer.

When the chief saw him, he smiled at Liu Bei and said, "Let me tell you. That's it. In today's battle, we will jump out of the car. The car is high and there is nowhere to use it. It is not easy to jump, and there are too many

The man stumbled under his feet and was about to fall. If the enemy army had not been defeated, many brothers would have died on this plank."

When Liu Bei heard this, he understood. Liu Bei carefully thought about the structure of the sidecar. Indeed, there is no leverage on the floor of the sidecar. The floor of the sidecar is neither high nor low. Really.

Not easy to jump over.

According to the height of the sidecar, Liu Bei felt that he only needed to add a small wooden board and just use one step to jump out of the car easily.

Liu Bei has enough practical combat experience, and he clearly knows how big the difference in combat effectiveness is between being able to jump out smoothly and jumping around slowly, while flipping hands and feet.

Step on the pedals and jump out. Not to mention fighting, a man weighing 100 kilograms can knock back several enemy soldiers just by hitting him. But if there are no pedals, with the height of the car, you have to use your hands and feet to pedal.

If you flip out of the car, your hands and feet are all occupied, and your hands are on the floor of the car, there will be a big flaw, and you may be attacked by the enemy. The car will roll over, and you will be in a mess. It is not as safe as jumping out of the car.

Jumping out of a car is powerful.

Using the posture of jumping out of the car, the soldier jumped directly to kill with a sword in one hand and a shield in the other. He jumped into the crowd with a knife. The moment the car overturned, our soldiers were completely unable to attack at first.

If you think about it, you should know that if you jump into a group of enemies to fight, a soldier may only survive for one or two breaths. If you jump out of a cart, you can cut it out with a knife, killing one enemy soldier, and then roll out of the cart without even swinging the knife.

He was hacked to death when he went out. This was the difference in manpower between the two.

The difference in kills for one vehicle was only two. For such a large array of vehicles, the difference in casualties in one circle was over a hundred.

[Adding pedals to the vehicle plate] Just this improvement can reduce casualties by hundreds.

Liu Bei was discerning enough to see the value of this strategy, so he carefully took note of it.

After finishing writing, Liu Bei took out five military tickets and handed them to the soldier as a reward.

The soldiers received the military tickets and their faces were full of joy.

Later, when I asked these soldiers if they had any suggestions, there weren’t many good suggestions.

Liu Bei praised these soldiers from the bottom of his heart, bowed his hands to everyone, and went to the next place.

As soon as Liu Bei left, the soldiers quickly encouraged the commander and the brother who had received five military tickets, and told them to go get the food and have a good meal when they came back.

Unable to resist the request of his comrades, the commander and the soldier had no choice but to go.

Liu Bei came to the second team.

There were ten people in the second team, one person was missing, and one person was killed.

"...How did he die? I mean, where was he injured?" Liu Bei asked.

"The neck is hung, the tendons are broken, and blood is pouring out. After a while, the person will die."

Liu Bei nodded. He thought for a while and wrote down the cause of death of the soldier. Liu Bei didn't know what the use was of recording the cause of death of the soldier. He was used to remembering it.

For the second team, Liu Bei didn't get much useful advice.

After that, go to the third team.

Some soldiers in the third team said that they should be equipped with axes when fighting.

Liu Bei was a little puzzled. The ax was not long enough to chop people in the car.

The soldiers said that during the battle, the enemy's spears were stabbed at the cart randomly. If there was an axe, he would cut off the spear head when he brought the ax down. Also, the enemy soldiers squeezed under the cart with shields and took them on the cart.

The spear can't poke it, it's all poked into the shield. If the spear is replaced by a divination halberd, it can hook open the shield and kill the enemy. It's much easier to use than a spear.

Hearing this, Liu Bei thought thoughtfully. There is a strategy of compound armament in the army, that is, just like a chariot. If the chariot is really made for combat, it will not be easy to pull food. If it is for combat,

You have to bring hundreds of tanks and hundreds of grain trucks, which puts a huge logistical pressure. Therefore, the armaments are combined, the armaments are universal, and the grain trucks are transformed into tanks. Once the grain trucks are available, the tanks

Now that we have it, the logistical pressure is greatly reduced.

There are also things like the Xuanwu chariot with four functions, the multi-purpose dagger that can be used both for fighting and cutting grass, and for hooking away the fire bundles thrown by the enemy during the siege, etc., a composite weapon.

Multi-purpose, greatly reducing logistical pressure.

Liu Bei thought about the universal use of weapons. He thought that when fighting on a chariot, the weapon must be long enough to cut off the enemy's spear head and hook the enemy's shield. So considering the universal use of weapons, why not make a weapon that is both long and capable of cutting?

What about weapons that can be hooked?

Making armaments was not something Liu Bei was good at. Liu Bei thought to himself that it was a pity that the military advisor was not here. Otherwise, if he had asked the matter, the military advisor would have had some ideas.

The issue of armament for vehicle array operations was another important suggestion, and Liu Bei once again gave five military tickets.

Going down, Liu Bei went down one team at a time to ask questions and brainstorm ideas. As expected, he was able to gather many good ideas.

Some soldiers were so imaginative that they wanted to make a hole in the carriage board, just like the shooting hole on the city wall, so that they could shoot at the enemy without exposing their heads.

When Liu Bei heard this suggestion, he subconsciously wanted to refute it. He wanted to say, what if a hole was dug in the car and the enemy soldiers poked their guns through the hole?

Then, Liu Bei suddenly realized that the shooting holes on the city wall could also be drilled and attacked by the enemy. However, the advantages were different. Our soldiers could shoot out from the small holes and easily reach the target. However,

The enemy wants to poke a small hole accurately, but it will take a long time to poke it.

In addition, a hole as thick as a fingertip is enough for the arrow, and the spear head will definitely not be able to penetrate such a small hole.

As for the enemy's arrow entering the hole, it is possible, but the possibility is extremely small. Even if the enemy's arrow hits the hole by chance, it is useless at the wrong angle. If it happens to hit the hole and the angle is right, this probability is 100%.

None of them.

There are indeed disadvantages to opening holes in the vehicle. This will not only affect the strength of the vehicle body, but also increase the danger. However, compared with the benefits, with the shooting holes, our soldiers no longer need to show their heads to shoot, which greatly reduces casualties. This is the first
To be continued...
