Chapter 38: The Beginning of the Army (4)

Raise your troops!

With Lu Yao's order, no matter what opinions his subordinates held before, they were all respectful at this time.

Since the beginning of the imperial dynasty in the first year of Thailand, the Great Jin Dynasty has rarely had a thriving atmosphere, permeating the emperor to the courtiers, the court to the locality, in addition to the arrogance and extravagance of mania, it is the wind 'tide' that 'makes' the Xuan Xuan and the Xuan to escape the world. After the collapse of Emperor Wu, the successor to the throne was certainly a mediocre man with intellectual defects, and the one who entrusted his life to the orphan was either a disciple of the countryside or a fornicating person. As a result, a group of fools took turns to do nonsense, and Da Jin was like a broken carriage, running wildly towards the bottomless abyss. At this moment, there is no doubt that the reality of the court's shaky 'desire' is no longer in doubt. When the Shile thieves were wreaking havoc in the Central Plains, and the Xiongnu and Han headquarters were 'elite' and coerced Luoyang, the Great Jin army, which should have numbered hundreds of thousands or millions, had no power to fight back...... But this does not include the army of the Pingbei Shogunate in Youzhou!

When Lu Yao gave the order, many subordinates looked at each other, and even saw the excited look in each other's eyes. In the past few months, although it has been an extremely rare period of calm since they followed Lu Yao, how can the civil and military ministers have the slightest chance to rest? Under the supervision of Lu Yao, everyone in the Youzhou shogunate handled countless affairs with a positive attitude that was completely different from any place in the Great Jin Dynasty, the recruitment and reorganization of those soldiers of the various clans of the Hu and Jin Dynasties; The 'mixed' and enriched 'private' soldiers of the Daijun Army, Youzhou Army, and the Jin people in Bashang; the mobilization and distribution of various materials such as grain, ordnance, and war horses; There are also tens of thousands of soldiers who have unimaginably worked hard and sweated blood...... Isn't it for today? Now that the sword has been sharpened, it's time to unsheath it!

Raise your troops! Raise your troops!

With Lu Yao's order, the civil and military officials bowed down in unison, and Lu Yao stood upright with his sword, inhaling deeply and exhaling deeply.

It has been two years since the awakening in the Taihang Mountains, and the embarrassed defeated generals at that time have now become a big warlord with a base of thousands of miles and tens of thousands of soldiers. The stall is getting bigger and bigger, and the lives of nearly a million people and tens of thousands of soldiers are firmly tied to Lu Yao's neck, making him feel a heavy burden from time to time. But that didn't give him a moment of rest...... No matter how hard he tries, his force and influence are only limited to a corner of Youzhou after all, and he is far from having time to spread to a larger scale. And the Great Jin is still like an iceberg that will melt, swaying in the angry sea. The surging beasts tore apart Huaxia's body, making the terrifying future of countless prosperous cities and cities empty and turning into a sea of blood is approaching step by step and step by step. But Lu Yao's perspective is different from anyone else's, in his eyes, the possibility of reversing the crisis has never been lost, and the crisis itself is also giving birth to a completely different future path.

For Lu Yao, the military plan of the Xiongnu to attack Luoyang was a history that he had long understood. He knew very well that the Xiongnu Dadan Yu Liu Yuan had always liked to use a huge number of troops to sweep the enemy through several attacks, but unfortunately he might not be able to do so every time. Just like the painful defeat under Jinyang City more than a year ago, this time he divided his troops into two ways to attack Luoyang, although it was powerful, but it also gave Lu Yao various opportunities to break through. Before the Shile thief crossed the Yellow River, he was firmly suppressed by the Jizhou Thorn Shi Ding Shao, and his troops were extremely limited. was able to gather an army of 100,000 troops, all relying on his major expansion in the Central Plains, and attracting Wang Mi, Liu Ling, Cao Wei and other giants to join the gang, but the situation of 'chaos' and 'chaos' and mountains in its internal power was also established. The geographical conditions of the four wars in the Central Plains forced Shile to take into account all directions, and further thinned the forces that could command Ruyi.

The enemy of the troubled Huaxia was no stronger than the history that Lu Yao was familiar with, in the original history, Wang Jun's Youzhou group relied on the Xianbei servant army with complex sources, and was still able to defeat Shi Le repeatedly, forcing this giant to succumb. Lu Yao's efforts in running the Youzhou Army were far superior to Wang Jun's, and the six armies formed by gathering the 'elite' elite of Bashang, Daijun and Youji were far superior to Wang Jun's military strength. With this strong army, supplemented by the perseverance of the beggar army and the soldiers of Jizhou, they will go south to attack the Shile Division, which seems to be strong and weak, and it will inevitably be destroyed!

A brilliant victory would be the beginning of a string of victories. There are no good generals under the command of the king of the East China Sea, so if he disagrees with Gou Xi, it is like cutting off his arm. Once Shile is defeated, none of them will become the only person in the East Sea King's faction who can support the military crisis. With this status, he first gathered and organized the various imperial court soldiers and horses scattered in the Central Plains, and then marched westward, and fought with the Xiongnu headquarters under the city of Luoyang. At that time, if it is victorious, the situation will be completely under the control of the Youzhou shogunate, and the achievements of Qi Huan and Jin Wen can be expected, as said to Hu Liuniang before. If the war is unfavorable, there is no need to be obsessed with Luoyang, just coerce the kings of the imperial court and the available courtiers to return to the north, on the one hand, with the two states of Youji to compete with Hu'er, and on the other hand, you can coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes!

Although Lu Yao did not discuss all this with others, he had already secretly planned countless times. can barely guess why he is obsessed with Luoyang, only Fang Qinzhi, who is very good at figuring out people's hearts. Otherwise, with Fang Qinzhi's personality, how could he do this kind of useless dispute between one person and many colleagues. However, even Fang Qinzhi did not know the reason for the real strategy in this, only Lu Yao Qiangang was arbitrary, convinced that this plan must be feasible, and it must be a good start for plotting for hegemony, and it is a good opportunity to smash that tragic history head-on and write a new history!

Raise your troops! Raise your troops! Raise your troops!

With Lu Yao's order, the Youzhou Military Mansion was in a shock!

The military government is not good at pretending, and related affairs are only practical and effective, and all review ceremonies and the like are exempted. As for the specific arrangements for marching operations, Lu Yao has been planning for a long time since the beginning of the year. At this time, he casually said, such as the route of the march, the target captured, the distance of each unit, the speed of response, the storage location along the way, the way of distributing materials, the number of people mobilized, the location of the bridge, etc., although it was complicated, it was carefully deployed and there was no leakage of 'holes'. The subordinates who have followed him for a long time have gone through many hardships and dangers, and they have a deep tacit understanding with each other, and they have long regarded Lu Yao as a tree to rely on, and they only take it for granted at this moment; And the subordinates of Youzhou's new subordinates couldn't help but be moved, only to realize that this lord was really exhaustive, wise and wise. This situation, compared to the situation when Lu Yao, the head of Jinyang City, insisted on holding on, many people were at both ends of the rat, it was really a world of difference.

The generals and colonels he ordered immediately stood up and respected the military order. In the process of the development and growth of the military government's subordinate troops, it has never stopped high-intensity training and rectification, and on weekdays, no matter how much Lu Yao repeatedly advises, the generals and colonels will inevitably have some complaints about this. At this time, the generals realized that it was those endless training and rectification that made the action and cohesion of the Youzhou Army far more than expected, just like a beast devouring a big mouthful, and the food it ate turned into strong muscles and bones, and there was no fat 'meat' and 'fat' fat. As one military order after another was issued, hundreds of herald cavalry rushed out, and the roars of giving orders came and went, but they were strict and orderly, and there was no chaos. The speed of the response of the military camps everywhere was even faster, and the sound of footsteps, neighing horses, and the sonorous sound of armor converged into a 'tide', but the slightest sound of panicked and 'chaotic' speech could be heard. After another half an hour, but listening to the sound of horses' hooves, the forward scout cavalry stationed not far from Jicheng had already set off!

In the early morning of the second day, the Youji army set out according to the plan, and the four armies of Duliao, Henghai, Yingyang, and Dingbian left the necessary garrison troops, and the main forces set up camp one after another. The roads and post stations that have been built with a lot of civilian effort in the past few months have also played a major role at this time. The herald ordered the cavalry to gallop along the road overnight, changing horses along the way, and quickly conveyed the order to the distant Daidi and Bashang grasslands, ordering the Pingshuo and Woye armies to immediately recruit the troops of the subordinate Hu tribes and Tuntian soldiers to fill the vacancy left by the main force moving south.

At the same time, Lu Yao himself put on his armor and led a group of knights to step out of the main 'gate' of the General's Mansion.

At this time, the sky was not yet bright, but outside the General's Mansion, it was crowded with the people of Jicheng at some point. Since Lu Yao took charge of Youzhou, although he has not interfered in the administration of Youzhou, he has only served a number of measures in military affairs, such as the great revitalization of tuntian, the dredging of rivers and canals, the relief of displaced people, and the crackdown on bandits and thieves, which have already benefited hundreds of people. These humble people felt 'excited' tears, so when they heard that the military government was about to raise troops, many people gathered from all over Jicheng early, and knelt down far away from hundreds of guards and horses, chanting loudly in their mouths, wishing the army a victory.

Lu Yao glanced at them, although he didn't have time to pay attention to them, he felt a little emotion in his heart. For thousands of years, the Chinese people have been so hardworking, wise, and kind, and so easy to satisfy. As long as the oppression and humiliation they suffered are not so 'fierce' and they are left with a way to live, it is enough to make them thank them from the bottom of their hearts and sing praises to the rulers from the bottom of their hearts. In the face of such people, it is really easy to be an official; Being a good official has become a difficult thing again!

"Let them all get up, don't make such nonsense!" Lu Yao casually instructed a servant, turned his head and said to the rest of the people: "As a martial artist, food, clothing, housing and transportation all come from the dedication of the people, only by defeating Hu'er and returning the world to a bright world can we be worthy of them!" ”

The stables of the General's Mansion were not far from the main 'gate', and at this time the servants had brought their horses over. Lu Yao neatly turned over and got on the horse, and with a little control of the reins, he made this tall and irritable Liaodong horse obedient. Stretching out his hand again, he took the Zhangliu spear handed by Hu Cong and waved it a few times, and found with satisfaction that although he had not been in battle for a long time, thanks to his daily 'drill' training, his physical strength and proficiency in wielding weapons had not decreased.

"Let's go!" Lu Yao said loudly, and immediately turned the horse's head and set off.

At this time, the cronies and entourage had also mounted their horses one after another, and they were surrounded by Lu Yao. Pang Yuan led the rest of his servants and a number of more powerful protons to follow. From the south 'gate' of Jicheng on the General's Mansion Road, it passes through eight square markets and four intersections along the way. The Youzhou army troops stationed in various military camps in the city continued to merge into the brigade at these four intersections, and finally gathered more than 3,000 iron horsemen. These are all 'elite' cavalry that Lu Yao has trained with huge investment and painstaking efforts, and the sound of tens of thousands of iron hooves stepping on the dirt road has gathered into a rhythm, echoing between the houses and buildings on both sides of the road, making a roar like a storm cracking the shore.
