Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 409 Willing to establish a military order

Although the current Feiqian won this battle, it only slightly recovered the situation, which eased the situation on the west bank of the Fenshui River a little, but relying solely on the current strength of Feiqian still seems a bit weak .

And in Xiangling on the east bank of Fenshui, the battle situation is still serious. Although there is no news of the fall of Xiangling for the time being, it can be said with certainty that if the Baibo army on the west bank of Fenshui cannot be solved, then the fall of Xiangling is only a matter of time. The problem.

According to the practice of the Han Dynasty, the military strength of the counties and counties in Bianjun is generally set according to 5,000 in large counties and 3,000 in small counties. In other words, the military strength here in Xiangling should normally be 3,000 First, regardless of whether the soldiers in Xiangling can be full, just say that among the 3,000 troops, only one-third are often resident main soldiers, while the other 2,000 are auxiliary soldiers.

   Combined with the situation that Fei Qian encountered here, the strength of the Baibo army is even greater than what Fei Qian expected.

A commander-in-chief can lead three to four thousand soldiers. If calculations are made according to the past practice, then the number of people should be at least between 10,000 and 15, which means that the overall number of Baibo army is not the original number. Qian said 30,000 to 50,000, but 60,000 to 80,000.

Then it means that Feiqian still needs to face at least 4,000 soldiers and about 20,000 to 30,000 civilians; while in Xiangling, what he has to face is nearly 10,000 soldiers and soldiers. 20,000 to 30,000 people.

  For the Yellow Turban Thieves, there is a very hateful way of fighting, which is to attack the city with the people carrying the parcels. When the Yellow Turban broke out during the Zhongping period, many counties fell in this way.

This is the Han Dynasty, this is the reality, it is not like in the game that as long as you build an archer, you can carry endless arrows, as long as there is a blood skin left, you can shoot powerful arrows; as long as there is a city wall, No matter how much durability is left, as long as it is not zero, there will always be endless rocks and rolling logs.

  In a state of intense combat, if an archer draws his bow twenty times in a row, he must step back to adjust and rest, otherwise even if he shoots forcibly, the effect will not be achieved. Similarly, if a **** equipped with a long spear or a saber stabs or slashes continuously for more than a quarter of an hour, his energy will decline severely. If no adjustments are made, the rate of battle damage will increase greatly.

When he created the Modao Type 1, Fei Qian himself let Huang Cheng try it out. Even a martial artist like Huang Cheng who has practiced martial arts, knows how to control breathing and use the muscles of the whole body rationally, after chopping with all his strength for an hour I couldn't bear it either, so I finally switched to the mode where people don't turn their swords around, to save energy to prolong the fighting time, otherwise, no matter how strong a warrior is, he will put on an armor weighing forty or fifty catties, and carry a weapon weighing fifteen pounds. The Mo Dao, which weighs about a catty, is still chopping and slashing like Guan Erye?

  In terms of slashing alone, the strongest is not the Mo Dao, nor the Qinglong Yanyue Dao of Guan Er, but the long-handled iron axe, the center of gravity is all on the axe...

  But a small ax has too much effect, and if it is made into a big ax...

   Let’s not say that a long ax is not good for melee combat, but if you want to build a big iron ax, it’s really useless!

  Although there is a great craftsman Huang Dou who re-smelts all kinds of ironware from the trade in Luoyang to increase the strength by frying steel, but after all, the output is too small to supply such a large amount of iron consumption.

   There must be a lot of equipment. Fei Qian has no problems in terms of technology, but it is still very lacking in manpower, workshops, and raw materials.

  Although the terrain of the Beiqu camp is good, it is too small and there is not enough space after all, so Fei Qian set his sights on the entire Xinshui River Basin.

This area is adjacent to Luliang Mountain in the north, with Puzi County in Yong'an as the northern defense line, Fenshui in the east, Beiqu in the northwest, and Pingyang in the southeast. At the same time, it can also use the wood and water power on Luliang Mountain to build workshops.

  If one or two small-scale iron ore deposits can be found nearby...

  Of course, as Fei Qian’s memory for later generations, further to the northwest is the birthplace of the local tyrants of Ordos that were talked about back then.

   This place is a treasure land!

  But before that, the people brought by the Baibo army were fat meat that Fei Qian absolutely wanted to swallow. Soldiers can be killed, but those common people must be saved.

   After all, there is no population base, so everything is off the table.

"Now that Baibo is newly defeated, I don't think I will have the courage to attack Pingyang again in a short time. However, with our existing soldiers, it is okay to defeat, but it is very difficult to swallow, so..." Fei Qian looked to the north and said leisurely, " Liang Dao, I want to keep you here and guard Pingyang..."

   "Your envoy wants to win Yongan?" Jia Qu's eyes sparkled.

  It is convenient to communicate with smart people. Fei Qian didn't even say his plan, but Jia Qu seemed to have realized it.

  That's right, if you want to gain population, you must first control Yong'an into your own hands. If Yong'an County was captured, on the one hand, it would cut off the retreat route of the Baibo army, and on the other hand, it would be equivalent to leaving the people brought by the Baibo army on both sides of the Fenshui River.

   Fei Qian smiled and said: "The one who knows me is Liang Daoye. How about it? Would you like to stay here?"

  Qu is only sixteen years old now, and although his intelligence is pretty good, Fei Qian still has little confidence in asking Jia Qu to do such a thing.

  Although the old city of Pingyang has a city wall, it is not complete. There are still many places like the city wall under the feet, which are still not repaired.

  Defending the city is extremely difficult.

   But it is even more unfeasible to go out of the city to fight.

   Except for the support provided by the Baibo Valley, there is no point that can provide side cover. Once it is surrounded on the level of Fen, it will be a disaster.

  Although there is Linfen in the south, even Wang Yi, the governor of Hedong County, dare not pass there, so it is also extremely risky.

Although there is no news from Beiqu in the west, there are not many troops left there, and it is in the territory of Hu people, so they can only defend the camp with ballistas. Then draw troops, otherwise it will be dangerous.

  Thus, although one attack of the Baibo army was repelled, the next wave of attack does not know when it will come. Will it be more ferocious than this time...

All of these, once there is a mistake in that link, there will be loopholes in the entire layout, Fei Qian has to treat it with caution, and communicated with Jia Qu alone on the wall of Pingyang City, also out of this consideration .

This is not a farce like the work meeting at the beginning of the year in later generations. Leaders of all sizes come to the stage to receive tasks, pat their chests and shout slogans, and at the middle or end of the year, they come to pat their thighs, and finally slap their buttocks. This is a farce that affects thousands of people. It is related to the layout of Feiqian's entire Northland!

  If Fei Qian can have a few under his command now, in his memory, those counselors and generals who belong to the first level, or even quasi-first-class ones, will not make Fei Qian so embarrassed.

  Jia Qu, Jia Liangdao, you know, this burden is heavy...

  Are you willing to provoke?

  Can you defend well?

  Can you trust me?

  Jia Qu saw the prudence and inquiry in Fei Qian's eyes, so he also fell silent, thinking quietly, and asked after a long time: "How many troops do you want to bring to the north?"

   "Hundred cavalry." Fei Qian didn't plan to bring too many soldiers, because bringing too many soldiers would weaken Pingyang's defense even more. "In addition, the army horses in Baibo Valley are at your disposal."

  Jia Qu nodded, and then said: "Heavy armored soldier, can you stay here?"

   "...yes." Fei Qian thought for a while, and finally nodded in agreement, but felt that he still needed to explain some precautions, so he called Huang Cheng and asked him to bring Mo Dao up.

  Fei subtly asked Huang Cheng to show Jia Qu the Mo knife, and then said: "Originally this knife needs to be made of iron that has been tempered for a hundred times, but the time is short, so it has to be refined for fifty times, so there are many shortcomings..."

  Jia Qu watched carefully and stroked lightly. On the blade of Mo Dao, some gaps and tiny cracks had appeared due to the last high-intensity battle.

  Huang Cheng said: "This blade can still be used once or twice, and it will be completely destroyed, and it needs to be reworked." The hardness of the blade is sufficient, but the toughness is not enough...

  Jia Qu suddenly asked: "How much can you use if you only chop?"

Huang Cheng said with a smile: "It should be usable for a long time, but this blade has a long tip. If you use it on a daily basis, you can use it for stabbing." It's great for cutting, but it's not as effective as a normal broadsword for chopping mountains. However, because the blade is long, it can also be used as a thrusting move like a spear.

Fei Qian added: "Heavy armor soldiers, the total weight of the armor is forty-eight, although it has been practiced, it is still inconvenient to walk, and the hands and feet are exposed outside the armor, and the side and back of the body are thin. , When using it, you need to be cautious." After all, heavy armor soldiers are not robots, and they also have weaknesses that will cause fatigue, so they can only be used at critical moments to achieve good results, rather than using them from beginning to end. It is estimated that Iron Man will get tired and get down.

  Jia Qu returned Mo Dao to Huang Cheng, bowed his hands earnestly, and wrote it down, and said, "When will the envoy return it?"

The most fearful thing about guarding the city is that there will be no reinforcements. Jia Qu can ask this sentence instead of directly patting his chest and saying that there is no problem. Wait for the boring slogan.

   "Seven days at least, ten days at most."

  Jia Qu lowered his head, pondered and calculated silently, raised his head after a long time, straightened his body, and said in a loud voice, "I am willing to issue a military order! I will protect Pingyang within ten days!"

   Some Three Kingdoms place names have been renamed...

   If you substitute the latest place name into the book, it becomes:

   I am Zhao Zilong from Shijiazhuang...

   I am Baotou Lu Bu...

   I am Baoding Zhang Fei...

   I am Linyi Zhuge Liang...

   I am Yuan Shao from Zhumadian...

   I am Gongsundo of Pyongyang...

   I am Wu Tugu, Ho Chi Minh City...

   The stick and the monkey may not agree, but the fact is...
