Chapter Seventy-One: Operation to Suppress Bandits
For the publicity effect during this time, Lu Bu is still very satisfied.
Now his reputation for benevolence and righteousness has spread throughout Luoyang, as well as many nearby cities, and it is still spreading at a very fast speed.
If you estimate it, by next year's Yellow Turban Uprising, not to mention the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, at least most of the Eastern Han Dynasty centered on Luoyang can be spread, right?
Jia Xu had become accustomed to his position as director of the CIA, because he found that he seemed to like his profession.
……
Now, Lu Bu's focus is on leading troops.
The 100-man team is really a day at a time!
This was the first time Lu Bu led the troops, and the hundred-man team poured Lu Bu's hard work.
The current training is not only the basic training of physical formations and so on, Lu Bu often takes the hundred-man team and the trap camp trained by Gao Shun to conduct military exercises.
Well, military exercises are a relatively fashionable name, that is, the two armies have a discussion.
Lu Bu's hundred-man team drew a hundred people from the trap camp to compete in all aspects.
To Lu Bu's surprise, the result of the contest turned out to be that the two sides could not distinguish between the winners and losers.
Such a result was indeed extremely surprising to Lu Bu, you must know that from the soldiers, the physical fitness of the hundred-man team is better than that of the trapped camp.
And the training time of the 100-man team is almost a month longer than that of the trapped camp, but now that they are fighting, the two sides are only a draw.
Lu Bu observed carefully and found that the main reason was the reason for the formation.
During the Three Kingdoms period, there were several invincible legions.
Gao Shun's trapped camp, Gongsun Zhan's white horse Yicong, Ma Teng's Xiliang army and Zhuge Liang's eight formations.
Well, strictly speaking, Zhuge Liang's Eight Formations cannot be regarded as an invincible legion, at best it is just a battle formation.
But the Eight Formations are indeed particularly unique, so let's compare them together.
In fact, whether it is the White Horse Yicong or the Xiliang Army, with superb riding skills and personal bravery, this is not easy to copy, depending on the congenital conditions.
And Gao Shun's trapping camp and Zhuge Liang's eight array diagram are playing delicate technical work.
In the war of the Three Kingdoms period, I still prefer to play heads-up.
The generals of both sides came out to fight alone, and the winning side took advantage of the situation to chase after it, and then won a big victory.
It seems that everyone likes to play like this.
Therefore, a general is not qualified, and personal bravery occupies a large proportion.
But Gao Shun is obviously not in this ranks, because Gao Shun's personal force value is not the top, and it is estimated that it is a first-class level.
But his trapped camp can be called one of the invincible legions during the Three Kingdoms period, which is indeed his uniqueness.
Lu Bu couldn't help but admire Gao Shun's ability to lead troops, and when he was fine, he liked to discuss with Gao Shun about the change of the battle formation.
Of course, Gao Shun also learned a lot from Lu Bu.
Lu Bu's understanding of the battle array is forward-looking beyond this era, and many unbelievable ideas make Gao Shun's eyes shine.
When Gao Shun absorbed these ideas, the formation of the trapping camp changed again.
Now Gao Shun's trapped camp has some differences from the trapped camp in the original historical trajectory, but the power will only be higher than the trapped camp in the original historical trajectory.
After Lu Bu consulted Gao Shun's formation changes, he did not copy the formation changes of the trapped camp.
Instead, he turned a lot of changes into his own things and put them into practice.
Through the constant competition between the 100-man team and the trap camp, both sides have grown rapidly, and the soldiers on both sides have become good brothers with each other.
Then, Lu Bu gave Gao Shun the first task.
It is to Gao Shun to investigate the situation of the mountain bandits on Xiaoqingshan, and then exterminate them.
And this task, not so much a task, is more like Lu Bu giving Gao Shun and those villagers a chance to take revenge.
At the beginning, their village was destroyed by the Xiaoqingshan bandits, and the villagers were killed and injured countless times, and they have never forgotten this hatred.
After receiving this task, Gao Shun knelt down on one knee and said heavily: "Thank you Lord for your success!" ”
Lu Bu patted Gao Shun's shoulder and said to Gao Shun: "Gao Shun, I don't want the brothers who are trapped in the camp to make any mistakes. ”
Gao Shun nodded heavily and said, "Lord, please rest assured, I will definitely bring my brothers back safely!" ”
Soon, Gao Shun sent someone to spy on the situation of the bandits in Xiaoqingshan Mountain.
Lu Bu also hated these mountain bandits.
With these mountain bandits, the lives of ordinary people are even more dire and miserable.
And the mountain bandits in Xiaoqingshan, a distance of about 100 miles from the capital of Luoyang, are already so rampant, which shows how much the Eastern Han Dynasty has been eroded.
It is estimated that as long as these bandits are not too excessive and do not take the initiative to rebel, no one will take care of them now.
Because there are too many bandits in the world, even if there are no mountain bandits, those officials are no worse than mountain bandits, and even more powerful.
……
After two days, Gao Shun quickly found out that the mountain bandits on Xiaoqingshan originally had three or four hundred people.
After they slaughtered more than 100 people last time, there are still about 200 mountain bandits.
After the last time more than 100 mountain bandits were slaughtered, these bandits were really taken aback, and they were honest for more than a month.
But later it turned out that it seemed that the officers and soldiers were not aimed at them, and they were completely unintentional last time, so in recent days, the bandits have gradually become rampant again.
After getting the information, Lu Bu found Gao Shun and asked Gao Shun if he had any way to break the enemy.
More than 200 bandits are indeed not much, which is equivalent to half of their manpower.
But these bandits rely on the mountain and have the advantage of the cottage, if they attack hard, they will inevitably suffer heavy casualties.
It is really not easy to exterminate these bandits with zero casualties.
Hearing Lu Bu's inquiry, Gao Shun smiled and said, "Lord Qiqi, the subordinates have already thought of a strategy to break the enemy. Lord, please see, this is a map of the area around Xiaoqingshan. ”
As he spoke, Gao Shun hung up a map of the march.
Gao Shun said to Lu Bu: "The map around Xiaoqingshan is a local person and is extremely familiar. The subordinates knew that there were two trails leading directly to the top of the mountain, and their strategy was to send troops to block the necessary way down the mountain for these mountain bandits to make a feint to attract their attention. ”
"Then the subordinates can lead people to sneak in secretly from the two paths, take advantage of the situation to set fire to the village, cause chaos among them, and then attack from top to bottom, and the bandits will inevitably be in chaos. At this time, the feint attack under the mountain will become a real offensive, and the inside and outside should be combined, and the bandits will be broken! ”
Lu Bu was overjoyed and said, "Okay, great! When are you ready to act? ”
Gao Shun said to Lu Bu: "The subordinates are preparing to act the day after tomorrow, according to the experience of the subordinates, the day after tomorrow will be a cloudy day, which is more conducive to a covert attack." ”
