Chapter 0414: The Bird of the Frightened Bow
Sima Juchang breathed a sigh of relief, at this moment he missed Xu Yu even more, if the other party was still there, where did he need to put so much effort into a few horses?
It seems that even if he defeats Li Yi, he can't be in a hurry to stand on his own, at least, he must find a few celebrities first...... You don't have to be too famous, you have half of Mr. Ziyuan's ability, and you will be satisfied.
Of course, now is not the time to think about this, the war horse is there, and the next thing is to find a way to form a cavalry...... I don't have this ability, so I have to find a fierce general.
His gaze wandered through the crowd, and finally landed on a strong man, and Sima Ju's eyes lit up: It's him!
After the end of the military discussion, Guan Hai, who had always looked listless, was stopped: "General Guan, the marshal asks you to enter the account." ”
………………
Looking at Guan Hai with a depressed face, Sima Ju frowned. Since he was captured and released, this fierce general, who was once famous in Qingzhou and had a terrible reputation for crying at night, has become this half-dead appearance, which makes people feel uneasy at first glance.
But Sima Ju couldn't do without him, because he had no one else to use.
The Han Dynasty did not prohibit martial arts, and the folk martial arts were extremely prosperous, especially in Shandong, a place where the people have been fierce since ancient times, and it was easy to form an army; War horses, bows and arrows, spears, even crossbows, as long as you have money, you can get them. Pull a few random people, and you can form an army to come out.
However, only if there is money.
The so-called poor and rich martial arts, ordinary people, it is good to be able to eat all year round, and it is simply a fantasy to want to support a full-time martial artist. In particular, the two skills of riding and archery are even more unattainable.
Needless to say, the cost of raising war horses, the cost of practicing bows and arrows is not a few, and feather arrows and good bows are very expensive. The hunting bows used by the hunters were homemade. It's relatively cheap, but the lethality can't be compared to the real standard angular bow.
In the Yellow Turban Army, most of them are ordinary people who can't eat, and those who know a few fists and feet and weapons are already considered strong in martial arts; There are very few who are proficient in these two skills; As for the family heirloom martial arts. Several times in Qingzhou, there are only a few.
The children of the poor family can't be compared with the heroes of the family, but even in troubled times, it is still easy for people like them to find food to eat, and the heroes of the family are recruiting, who will be willing to degenerate and join the yellow scarf as a thief?
Therefore, a fierce general like Guan Hai is a rare existence in the Yellow Turban Army. Sima Ju wanted to form a cavalry, and he wanted to hold the power in his own hands, so he could only pinch his nose and find Guan Hai.
"I've seen the big handsome." Guan Hai hugged his fists and saluted, and then like a stake, the pestle stopped squeaking.
Sima Ju became more and more annoyed in his heart, if it weren't for the experience of this time, he would definitely not be able to be quiet, but now. He can even put a smile on his face.
With a kind smile on his face, Sima Ju said to Guan Hai, "Brother Guan." After you came back, Ben Shuai has been busy with military affairs, and he has no time to visit and condole, which is really a little ashamed, and I hope that my brother will not go to my heart. ”
"The handsome man is polite, and the general of the defeated army is not brave. Meng Dashuai took him in, he was already grateful, how could he complain? ”
Guan Hai's answer was very decent, and Sima Ju even felt a hint of familiarity from the other party, which was similar to Xu You's taste.
"Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers. I heard that when Chu and Han competed for power, Gaozu has always been at a disadvantage, and he was chased by the overlord Xiang Yu several times, and there was no way to enter the ground, but in the end, it was not in the next battle and turned the tables? If you think about it carefully, this allusion is similar to the situation we are facing now, Li Yi calls himself the overlord, his weapons are called overlord guns, and since Duchang, he has been taking advantage of us......"
Guan Hai finally raised his head, and looked at Sima Ju's eyes, obviously floating with surprise, obviously, he didn't expect Sima Ju to be able to cite such a ...... Well, that's a good example.
Seeing this, Sima Ju became more and more proud, he shook his spirits and continued: "It's nothing to let him take advantage of it now, the brothers are assembled in too haste, of course, they can't compare to his elite in a hundred battles, plus they don't watch out, it doesn't matter, the general trend is in our hands, and when we advance to Fenggao City, it will also be an ambush on all sides, let him have the courage of a tyrant, and he will only end up with hatred!" ”
This allusion was told to Sima Ju when Xu Yu first met him, Sima Ju was very excited at the time, and through this allusion, he saw a better future, and at the same time attracted the other party to his heart.
Now that Xu You is gone, he has also matured, and he can change the same allusion slightly and tell it to others, which can not only express his confidence and insight, but also metaphorize the bright prospects of the battle situation to encourage the other party; In the end, it can also leave a foreshadowing for the subsequent solicitation, what a perfect performance!
This is the so-called overlord spirit, right?
After being self-absorbed for a moment, Sima Ju asked in a deep voice with full expectations: "Brother Guan, don't you think so?" ”
At the same time as he asked a sentence, he was ready to ask the next question, as long as the other party expressed the excitement in his heart, he could encourage the other party, and then lead him to a confidant.
However, it backfired, Guan Hai shook his head noncommittally, and said angrily: "It's hard to say. ”
What? It's hard to say?
Sima Juhao was choked to death in one breath, was his performance not perfect? Otherwise, why doesn't this rough billet follow the routine?
"Brother Guan, what do you mean?" Suppressing his anger, he asked.
Guan Hai ignored Sima Ju's getting worse and worse face, and analyzed to himself: "I think that Li Yi is not so easy to deal with, he is now delaying our trip, he must be planning something, before figuring out what he is planning, let's just run headlong like this, I'm afraid it will ......."
"Surprise attack? This was already expected by Ben Shuai. Sima Ju sneered, "You should have seen it along the way, although the army is numerous, but the camp of this commander is in accordance with the art of war!" Needless to say, the defense of the periphery, the commander in the battalion also learned the lesson of Duchang, separated the elite from the ordinary young and strong, and left the old and weak in Laiwu, and the march was also a big road...... What are the loopholes in this way? ”
"I don't know." Guan Hai shook his head, his tone refused to relax, "Li Yi is full of scheming, don't say so, even if he is a hero like a great sage and good teacher, isn't he defeated in his hands?" There are also the powerful Liaodong Haoqiang, Liaodong Zhuhu, Huns, Wuhuan and Xianbei people, all of whom fell under Li Yi's iron hooves. What is his strategy, how can so-and-so know? I just saw some signs from the actions of the Northern Xinjiang Army. ”
"Signs...... Hum! Sima Ju laughed angrily, suppressing the urge to satirize the other party's experience of being captured, and asked, "According to the opinion of the brothers, what should our army do?" ”
"Go back to Qingzhou." Guan Hai replied without thinking.
"Ha, give up halfway, waiting for Li Yi to beat us?" The ridicule in Sima Ju's eyes became even stronger.
"Of course I don't just go back, we must strengthen the defense of Laiwu City, rely on Laiwu to build a defensive line, so that Li Yi can't easily cross the border!" Guan Hai heard Sima Ju's displeasure, but he still insisted on finishing his words.
Sima Ju frowned and asked, "And then?" Starved to death in Qingzhou? ”
"No, we have a lot of momentum now, and we can knock down those counties and counties that we couldn't gnaw on before. Especially in Linzi City, Liu Yu hoarded a large number of materials in it. As long as Linzi City is defeated, we can organize an army of 200,000 people, and I am talking about a real army equipped with armored soldiers, so that we will have the strength to fight Li Yi. Guan Hai said, with a hint of eagerness in his tone, "Then let's cut off Qingzhou, wouldn't it be free?" It doesn't matter if Li Yi really breaks through the defense line, let's hide in the mountains, I don't believe he can kill them one by one! ”
"You're afraid of the enemy!" Sima Ju couldn't hold it anymore, slapped the table and stood up, pointed at Guan Hai and shouted, "You yourself were scared, do you think that others are the same?" If you can't beat it, go up the mountain? Do you think Ben Shuai is a bandit? Ben Shuai is Qingzhou generous, commanding an army of two million, crushing the past with a dignified momentum, and no one in the whole world can resist it! ”
Speaking of the back, his demeanor has already taken on a bit of madness.
Guan Hai sighed in his heart, stopped speaking to stimulate the other party, and returned to his half-dead appearance with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes.
"Brother Guan, why don't you understand? Li Yi has a trick, but we're not bad? Sima Ju settled down, and said earnestly, "Now Duchang is different at that time, we have some equipment and strength, although Li Yi is powerful, but he only has a little strength, how can it be our opponent?" ”
Guan Hai drooped his head and responded: "Well, the last general will obey the orders of the marshal." ”
Listening to his tone, I knew that he didn't listen to Sima Ju's words at all.
"That's it." Sima Ju was annoyed for a while, and finally gave up the way of the monarch and the minister, and directly ordered, "The war horses of all departments will be gathered soon, you pick some people, organize a cavalry out, and drive the cavalry of the northern frontier away, so that the army can speed up." ”
"Whoa." Guan Hai promised, thought about it, and asked, "Is it okay to drive away?" ”
Sima Ju waved his hand impatiently: "Of course you have to destroy them, no, you have to destroy them!" ”
"The enemy may ......" Guan Hai wanted to give some more hints, but seeing Sima Ju's expression, he didn't dare to touch his head.
People are under the roof, and they always come with the boss, and sooner or later they will be unlucky. Since the other party doesn't listen to him, it's better to find a way out early, Li Yi must have some strange tricks, and he has already smelled the smell.
Although he only fought a battle with the Northern Xinjiang Army, and did not even fight with Li Yi, the chief general of the Northern Xinjiang Army, but only fought with a personal guard general under him, Guan Hai thought that he already knew Li Yi very well. Li Yi is not the kind of person who is desperate and only talks about the courage of flesh and blood. This can be seen from his examples of battles over the years. (To be continued.) )
