Chapter 123: Company Battalion
Zhang Yu was very happy to see Xi Zhicai arrive.
Xi Zhicai looks like a dusty man, but his spirit is good.
"My lord, I brought two thousand people here this time, but they have not yet completed their training, and some of the other people have been left behind by me to let them continue to train the army and provide logistics there." Xi Zhicai reported.
Zhang Yu nodded, and recruited Xi Zhicai to come in addition to letting him be in charge of the logistics of the army, as well as training soldiers and horses, and then there was a deal with Zhang Jiao.
There are so many things that someone has to deal with them.
Zhang Yu called Xi Zhicai to the big tent.
"Zhicai, I've worked hard all the way, but now is not the time to rest, and many things need to be dealt with urgently." Xi Zhi arrived in the big tent, Zhang Yu said.
"The lord is serious, this is what his subordinates should do." Xi Zhicai said.
"By the way, Zhicai, hurry up and take this medicine, this is a rare miracle medicine that can cure all diseases." Zhang Yu took the system's Soul Returning Pill to Xi Zhicai and said.
Xi Zhicai said movingly: "Thank you for your concern, let the lord worry." ”
Xi Zhicai took the medicine given by Zhang Yu with both hands excitedly.
Xi Zhicai was excited, not because he really believed that this medicine could cure all diseases, but because of Zhang Yu's concern.
Zhang Yu asked Xi Zhicai to take the medicine first.
After Xi Zhicai took the medicine, Zhang Yu continued: "Zhicai, you must build a comprehensive supply base in the shortest possible time. ”
"My lord, what is a comprehensive supply base?" Xi Zhicai asked suspiciously.
"The so-called integrated supply base is fully functional. It is necessary not only to replenish the troops, to supply food and grass, but also to provide the consumption of weapons and equipment, and also to provide medicine and treat the wounded..."
Zhang Yu told Xi Zhicai about the meaning of the comprehensive supply base.
This comprehensive supply base must cover all aspects, except for fighting, other functions are needed.
Xi Zhicai suddenly felt a lot of pressure, so many functions cannot be done in a short time, fortunately, Xi Zhicai has a lot of money on hand.
"Zhicai, step by step, this battle is estimated to be solved in two or three months, so there is no need to be a permanent base, but there are two important tasks at present, one is to collect medicinal materials, and the other is to build weapons." Zhang Yu said.
Zhang Yu arranged several tasks for Xi Zhicai, personnel training, the creation of weapons and equipment, and the transaction with Zhang Jiao.
"My lord, in such a short period of time, if you want to build a weapon, I'm afraid you won't be able to create any good weapons." Xi Zhicai said.
Zhang Yu said: "I'll solve our own weapons, and the weapons we build can be sold." ”
Zhang Yu's weapons are all exchanged for points by themselves, they are of good quality, and they are all standard equipment.
But there are hundreds of thousands of troops fighting here, and it is a huge market, and Zhang Yu took a fancy to this and wanted to take the opportunity to make a fortune.
Zhang Yu began to engage in logistics, capturing more than 2,000 yellow turbans before, plus intercepting the yellow turbans outside Guangzong City a few days ago, the logistics base that Xi Zhi had just built at this time turned out to be more than 10,000 young and strong, adding up to more than the main battle army.
Rich and many, Xi Zhicai moved very quickly, found all the blacksmiths in the neighborhood, and then began to build weapons.
Medicinal herbs have also been collected, whether it is to buy them or send someone to collect them, the speed is very fast.
Xi Zhicai sent people to constantly expand the scope.
He also paid to mobilize a large number of people to help, and the strength of the people was strong, and they bought a large number of medicinal materials at high prices, and they all went into the mountains to find them in batches.
Xi Zhicai put up the shelf, and Zhang Yu could concentrate on the battle situation.
At this time, the Yellow Turbans had been out of the city for six days, and the Yellow Turbans had already lost more than 100,000.
And the officers and troops did not have a good time, with losses of nearly 40,000.
Huangfu Song began to get anxious, and he also knew the approximate number of yellow turbans in Guangzong City.
At this time, there are still more than 300,000 yellow scarves in Guangzong City, and if it continues to be consumed like this, he will definitely lose in the end.
Huangfu Song was in a hurry, he had already written several urgent letters to the imperial court, asking the imperial court to send troops over, and the imperial court had been organizing soldiers and horses to come to support, but the speed was very slow.
"Send someone to find Zhang Yu immediately." Huangfu Song had no choice but to let Zhang Yu come out to help.
Zhang Yu's soldiers and horses are not bad, and at this time, he doesn't care about his disagreement with a few of his subordinates, and Huangfu Song plans to invite Zhang Yu over.
The soldiers quickly found Zhang Yu, and Zhang Yu took Dian Wei and Huang Zhong to the Huangfu Song tent.
"Meet General Huangfu." After Zhang Yu came in, he saw Huangfu Song sitting alone on the middle tent.
"General Zhang, please come this time, I don't talk nonsense, now the situation is difficult, the yellow turbans are rampant, and our army is insufficient, so I want to ask you to move the military camp over and camp with us."
Huangfu Song didn't even have a polite word, and directly explained his intention.
Zhang Yu paused, thought for a while and said, "Yes, but there are a few conditions, I hope the adults understand." ”
Huangfu Song waved his hand for Zhang Yu to continue.
"First, our army is an independent battalion, second, what is the battle and the arrangement of General Huangfu Song needs to be informed, otherwise I am afraid that there will be problems with the cooperation at that time, and third, our army has come from afar, and I hope that the adults can supply food and grass equipment."
These three conditions are nothing to Huangfu Song, he knows that he doesn't believe in Zhang Yu, and Zhang Yu doesn't believe in him either.
"Okay, I agreed to these three conditions, I don't know when Lord Zhang will be able to move the military camp over." Huangfu Song said.
"Tomorrow I will send someone to set up the barracks, and in five days at most, I can move the barracks here." Zhang Yu said.
"Don't bother, you can be stationed in the barracks outside the south gate, and tomorrow I will send a large army to build a camp for you, and you can be stationed in it in two days at most." Huangfu Song said.
"Then there will be General Lao, and in three days, I will lead a large army to garrison together." Zhang Yu said.
After the two discussed, Zhang Yu didn't stay too long, and went back immediately.
The war continues, and it hasn't changed because of Zhang Yu.
After Zhang Yu went back, he asked people to pack up their things and prepare to be stationed in it.
"Lord, we really have to station the military camp outside Guangzong City, and then we will have to confront the Yellow Turban head-on." Ling Cao said.
Zhang Yu said: "This is not without benefits, the army must be able to fight this kind of tough battle." When the time comes, we can also use this to train our troops. ”
Zhang Yu can't help it, if he doesn't fight, he won't have points, he is very short of points now, and many good things need points to exchange.
As soon as the time came, Zhang Yu went with the army, but he only brought 6,000 infantry, and the 3,000 cavalry led by Huang Zhong went into battle.
Cavalry, Zhang Yu will not let them fight this kind of war of attrition.
"General Zhang, the camp has been built for you, this place will be your station in the future, and I hope General Zhang will work hard to fight." As soon as he arrived at the barracks, Zhang Yu saw a middle-aged general there to greet him.
"Thank you for the general, I don't know the name of the general yet." People helped Zhang Yu build a camp, although he was ordered to act, but Zhang Yu should still be the most basic courtesy to others.
"In Xia Yuan Zhan." After Yuan Zhan finished speaking, he saluted with both hands, and then turned his head and left.
"Hey, lord, look at what he is dragging, if it wasn't for Huangfu Song inviting us to come, we wouldn't have come."
Seeing that Yuan Zhan was unfriendly, Dian Wei became angry.
Zhang Yu was helpless, he didn't know how to offend others.
"Don't say so much, immediately inspect the camp and set up defenses." Zhang Yu said to Dian Wei.
They only have one night, Zhang Yu came at this time, the yellow turban has retreated, and I believe that it will come tomorrow.
