There is only one unit in the entire North Envoy Army that can handle the combat under complex terrain, that is, the navy and marine team led by Ma You, but this team has only more than 3,000 people in total, so it can only take some special tasks.

The battle may play a role in a key point in a large-scale military battle, but it does not play a big role in the frontal battlefield. Should we expand the scale of this army? But this

The thought flashed in Yun Zhao's mind and then extinguished. First, this army was trained in Ma You for several years before it achieved its current achievements. Its requirements for soldiers were extremely high. It can be said that it is better than Modao Team.

The requirements are higher. The Modao Team only requires soldiers to be tall and burly, able to wear heavy armor and dance with dozens of kilograms of big swords. Although it is difficult to find, it can always be found. However, the full material that Ma Jiayou needs

, It's really hard to find. //78xs//

When this war is over, it is very necessary to ask the generals in Ma You’s team to teach all the generals of the army to talk about the key points of combat under various terrains.

I feel something and think about it, but that's the story. Yun Zhao quickly put this matter down. The next decisive battle is the key. The family private army is very different from the town army in various places. This is not just

It is reflected in their equipment, and it is more in that these private armies of aristocratic families were established based on a family. In terms of loyalty to the family, they are much more reliable than the town army. The composition of the private army is almost all the grassroots officers.

It is the descendants of these aristocratic families. The more they go, the more they rely on the direct line of the family. Even if there are some senior generals from the talents recruited by these families, the fate of these people is already closely related to these families. One prospers and one loses.

Those ordinary soldiers either gave birth to children from aristocratic families and served these families for generations, or the tenants and friends of these families were all vines that depended on the big tree of the family. It was difficult to fight with them

It is much harder to fight than a town army, because these people often fight to the end.

Although Zhao Pu, Huang Xuanwu and other coalition forces have been surrounded in the Xiangshui Cave area, Yun Zhao still dared not be careless.

Two days after Ding Qiu defeated the left-wing Six-Eyed Defense Line, Wang Qiang also broke the Qili Chong defense line from the right-wing, and forced the enemy's main position in Xiangshuidong.

Breaking the left and right wings, the Zhao and Huang coalition lost 20,000 troops. On the main position of Xiangshui Cave, they still had more than 30,000 people. The Northern Expedition Army that surrounded them, not including Hu Zehua, who had not arrived yet, had already had

Nearly 60,000 people. The ratio of troops reached two to one. Considering the combat effectiveness of both sides, there is actually no suspense in this battle.

Victory is just a matter of time. It's just a matter of casualties.

"Beat them first, and then persuade them to surrender!" Yun Zhao said: "Zhao and Huang have not given up yet. They are still thinking about fighting a big fight with us, or want to win a battle first to increase the bargaining chips for negotiation and to dispel their

If you think, you have to beat them up and be afraid of them."

Meng Yao stood up with a smile. "Prince, this first battle of the general attack should be launched first by our Lucheng Camp!"

"That's it, Meng Yao is the main attacker. Now our north is reclaiming land and garrisoning land on a large scale. The only one is the population. I will like these private troops and take them back to the north at that time. How many years will be planted for us?

Huang said again. Liu Xuyong had only two years of agreement with us. By then, more than 20,000 Niuwei would have many more people to stay. The population is really a headache!" Yun Zhao shook his head and sighed.

After hearing this, Yao Changkun said, "When the Qianniu Guards who reclaimed land and farmed, I remembered one thing. Over the past year, many Qianniu Guards have married local families in Jiaozhou.

Many people became son-in-laws, but because of their special status, they did not distribute land and livestock to these people. Last time, the governor of Jiaozhou returned to Xingling to report his duties, he also asked the lower officials what the prince had planned for these people.

?”

"You mean these people have settled in Jiaozhou?"

"Yes, the prince also knows that in recent years, the north has suffered serious losses, the ratio of men is severely illegitimate, and there are many widows. These Qianniu Guards are all as strong as calves, and naturally there are many of them.

People like them, but both sides hit it off, but Xingling did not have such a policy. Jiaozhou magistrate was a little worried, afraid that some trouble would be caused by the time, and many people already had dolls."

"Okay, okay!" Yun Zhao applauded and laughed, "Changkun wrote a letter to Han Zhong, telling him that the court immediately came up with a strategy specifically targeting these people, and Qianniuwei, who had married local women in Jiaozhou,

All are all allocated to the fields and livestock, and at the same time, all those with dolls will also be given a share of land. Well, the fathers of these dolls can be regarded as indigenous people. However, the policies enjoyed by indigenous people will be shared by these people.

All the restrictions on these people were allowed to be soldiers and officials were lifted before."

"In this way, we can attract a lot of Qianniuwei to settle down locally." Yao Changkun said with a smile.

"Of course, Changkun, these guards were selected by thousands of people back then. If you say a private word, those seeds are all croaking! Taking root in the north is a great thing for us. Well, Changkun

, let’s just add one more. Even if you don’t marry the locals, as long as you are willing to make a living in the north, we will also share the fields with him.”

"In the south, there are relatives who are still in the south, but I am afraid that if you want to go back, some of the bachelors will be happy and they will have land and property all at once. This is hard to deal with in the south!" Yao Changkun said.

"Will Liu Xuyong be happy in this way? Those senior generals of Qianniu Guard are afraid of complaining. They have some privileges to gather together to farm, but if they continue to do so, these generals may become bare."

"Some of the generals originally had opinions, but Liu Xuyong would never have any ideas. If others can go back, Liu Xuyong would definitely not be able to go back. In the past two years, he has taken a concubine in Xingling, now a concubine.

His belly is getting taller and he will give birth after the New Year. It seems that he is planning to stay in the north." Yao Changkun smiled.

"Of course he won't go back. When he goes back, he will be a knife for him!" Yun Zhao smiled and said, "If these Qianniu Guards have settled in Jiaozhou and Liu Xuyong is willing to become an official, let him go to Jiaozhou to be an official!"

Of course, he is a civil servant, so that the Thousand Niu Guards can have no worries, and at the same time, he can suppress the generals."

"The prince is wise and kills two birds with one stone!" Yao Changkun bowed and said, "I will do these things right away."

Meng Yao stood up with a laugh, "Mr. Yao, I'm going to attack here soon. Don't you go to watch the fun?"

"You don't have any idea. In short, it's just a blow to the dog. What I'm going to do now is related to our plan to conquer the North Palace. Which one is more important? Besides, you'll catch these things by then.

Wan private soldiers, you can also get Han Zhong to prepare in advance if you want to place them, otherwise you will be in a hurry at that time." Yao Changkun said.

"Han Zhong is familiar with the road, but in short, he is going to Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture and the surrounding areas." Yun Zhao said with a smile.

Everyone in the tent laughed in unison. Naturalization of the Meng people has always been one of the core strategies of the Northern Prefecture. There were no Meng generals here, so they could also talk about this issue without any scruples.

The Northern Army was talking about the issue of forcing surrender, while in Xiangshui Town, Zhao Pu and Huang Xuanwu were also talking about this issue. The current form is very clear, because Lou Xiang left behind his friendly troops and fled, which made Wang Qiang's central army and Hu Zehua's Panshi Camp.

All pointed their fingers at them and directly put them in a desperate situation. It was basically impossible to escape. They either fought to the end or surrendered. Neither of them wanted to sacrifice themselves for Dayue. The reason why they sent troops to Luzhou was that they were just holding one.

The idea of ​​speculation was an opportunity for them to embark on the historical stage. Without fully understanding the capabilities of the Northern Army, they rashly stepped into this bet, and now they have lost a lot.

Now the two of them are thinking of leaving some gambling books so that they can have a chance to turn the tables. Then, how to surrender is a skillful question. If they surrender without a fight, I am afraid that the only gambling books will be the only one.

No one will be merciless when he is stripped of his opponent. He can only fight against each other head-on, win or drag it down. It is November now. If he can drag into the middle of winter, the bargaining chips will inevitably be huge.

increase.

The two set up a formation and decided to fight first and then talk, but Liuyan Chong and Qili Chong quickly lost their hearts, which made them feel half cold, and the gambling money they had in their hands was reduced by half.

"Two generals, the siege came to report that the Northern Expedition Army had already left the camp, but I was afraid that the attack was about to begin!" Chen Chong, a son of the Chen family, rushed into a hut that was the location of the two central troops.

A little nervous and authentic.

"Let's go, take a look!" The two of them jumped up.

The 30,000 troops of the aristocratic family laid three layers of defense along the heights of several miles in Xiangshui Cave. Standing at a high place, you can overlook the entire battlefield.

The war drums shook the sky, and the horse's hooves rumbled. The cavalry of the Zhengbei Army first arrived. Teams of war horses came and went in front of the defense line, warning the entire battlefield to prevent the opponent from suddenly attacking while the Zhengbei Army was not yet stable.

Behind the cavalry, infantry arrived in groups and formed an orderly military formation. Behind were a large number of baggage soldiers driving carriages, unloading countless supplies behind the military formation, and then these baggages were then used.

The soldiers began to get busy. When the second group of infantry arrived, there were already thunderbolt cannons as dense as the woods. One demon-subduing crossbows loaded on the wheelbarrow stopped in front of the military formation, and one was installed on the front of the car.

The iron rod was inserted deeply into the ground, stabilizing the entire vehicle.

"Meng Yao's Lucheng Camp!" Zhao Pu murmured.
Chapter completed!
