Chapter 58: A guard composed of soldiers
Chapter 58 A guard composed of military kings
Chapter 57: A guard composed of military kings
After hearing what Qin Hao said, Qin Yong and the other three generals immediately surrendered. It turned out that the young master had already thought of it, and he couldn't help but admire Qin Hao even more in his heart.
You must know that the Yanmen Army implements a system of separation of combat and defense. The army is divided into combat soldiers and garrison troops. In the fourteen counties of Yanmen, the garrison troops in each county except Guangwu City, the county seat, has 3,000 garrison troops, and the remaining ten The three counties have 500 garrison troops and 1,000 field troops, totaling 22,500 people.
However, due to Qin Yong's previous command errors, the 1,500 garrison of Yin Pavilion were almost wiped out, and the total number of Yanmen garrison dropped to 21,000.
Now, except for the three counties of Guangwu Yinguan and Pingcheng, Qin Hao has mobilized a thousand soldiers and horses in eleven counties. The total is 11,000 troops, accounting for half of the total number of Yanmen garrison troops!
Eleven thousand troops were transferred to the southeast by Qin Hao. Are so many troops really just used to deal with the Yellow Turban Army?
You must know that Qin Hao only sent 3,000 troops to deal with the Wang family's 25,000 troops. And now the remaining 6,000 people, is it necessary to mobilize such a large number of troops?
Qin Yong looked puzzled, Zhang Liao was thoughtful, and Yue Fei looked like that!
After Qin Hao saw the expressions of the three generals, he immediately smiled and said: "The eleven thousand troops in the eleven counties are naturally not only used to deal with the Yellow Turban Army. Now the jackal of the Wang family has been eliminated, but the tiger of the Xiongnu is still there. , It is undoubtedly very difficult to rely on the defenders of Yanmen Pass to fight against the 80,000 Xiongnu army, so if we want to defeat the Xiongnu, we still need more troops! "
When Qin Yong heard this, he suddenly realized that the Wang family was just a minor problem, and the Huns were the big enemy. Now the Huns still had more than 70,000 troops attacking Yanmen Pass. The eldest lady Qin Liangyu was leading the Yanmen Pass defenders to resist with difficulty. A large number of reinforcements were indeed needed. Only then can we guard Yanmen Pass!
Qin Hao walked up to the Pingcheng guard, patted him on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "Pingcheng is related to our army's food supply, so it must not be lost. A thousand defenders are indeed a little cautious. I will adjust it again after returning to the underworld." Thousands of guards are here to help you defend, so you must not be careless."
“Promise!” General Pingcheng promised immediately.
“Destroy the military camp and follow me back to the underworld!”
Now that the danger in Pingcheng has been resolved, Qin Hao has no need to stay in Pingdao. After sending the Pingcheng defender away, he immediately returned to the Yin Pavilion with more than 400 broken military camps.
When Qin Hao returned to the Yin Hall, the war in the Yin Hall had stopped. Except that the streets were extremely deserted and almost no people were seen taking to the streets, there was almost no trace of the war.
Today, all four gates of the Yin Hall are under the control of the Yanmen Army, and the entire city is under martial law. Groups of soldiers trapped in the camp are patrolling the streets, maintaining public order and at the same time arresting the defeated soldiers who are hiding, and cooperating with the Wang family Persons associated with the rebellion.
Looking at the stable Yin Pavilion, Qin Hao knew that all this was naturally attributed to Gao Shun. Gao Shun was really a reassuring general.
After nodding with satisfaction, Qin Hao and the three generals strode into the county government office. At this time, Gao Shun had been waiting for Qin Hao at the county government office for a long time.
Seeing Gao Shun holding the roster and looking like he had been waiting for a long time, Qin Hao smiled knowingly, ignored the other officials present, stepped forward and sat on the main seat, and said with a faint smile: "I believe that after the war, General Gao Shun, you also It must have been listed, so let’s report it first!”
“Yes, young master!” Gao Shun said respectfully.
At this time, the major officials in the underworld who had just been released from prison by Gao Shunsong understood that this young man who had no chance for them to be "arrogant" was actually the young master!
“Let’s talk about the casualties first!”
Qin Hao was more concerned about the damage to his own army than the captured trophies. After all, there was still a big battle ahead. If the casualties were too large, the decisive battle with the Xiongnu would not be easy to handle soon!
“In this campaign, there were 1,300 soldiers and 1,770 defenders in the Yin Pavilion, a total of 3,000 people. After the war, the defenders suffered 500 casualties, and the soldiers fell into the camp and suffered 156 casualties. As for the destruction of the military camp.”
Qin Hao then remembered that he had taken Pojunying out of the underworld before the battle was over, so how did Gao Shun know the casualties in Pojunying?
Zhang Liao took the initiative to stand up at this time and said with a sad face: "Fifty-eight people were killed in this battle at Pojun Camp!"
The Po army camp was all elite, and every death was a huge loss. This time, the Po army camp lost one-tenth, and the Po army camp suffered one-sixth casualties. So let alone Zhang Liao, he was Gao Shun. Qin Hao was also extremely distressed.
“Including the broken military camp, our army suffered a total of 704 casualties in this battle.” Gao Shun said slowly.
Qin Hao frowned when he heard this. Just by looking at the battle report, he could almost figure out the gap between the Yanmen soldiers and the defenders.
You must know that the 1,300 trapped camp and broken barracks were the real main force in this battle. They not only withstood the opponent's nearly 20,000 troops head-on, but also completely defeated the enemy's army head-on.
The 1,700 defenders were just fighting behind the broken army, but they all suffered nearly 500 casualties. This shows how big the gap is between the defenders and the fierceness of the battle.
Of course, this does not mean that the Yanmen garrison is weak in combat power. The soldiers trapped in the formation are not ordinary soldiers, but the trump card of one in a hundred. If it were ordinary soldiers, even if they couldn't compare with the defenders, the gap wouldn't be that big. However, compared with the trapped troops, even if they couldn't compare, Qin Hao could understand it.
After figuring out the key, Qin Hao's brows relaxed and he said calmly: "Tell me about the gains!"
"In this battle, our army killed 9,000 enemies and captured 8,000 prisoners. More than 2,000 people are either missing or hiding in the underworld to resist arrest. However, the general has sent troops to search for them. I believe they will all be captured soon. ! ” The Wang family has a total of 25,000 troops in the Yin Pavilion. Now, except for Dongfang Sheng who took away 6,000 troops, almost all of the 19,000 troops are in the Yin Pavilion.
The Yanmen Army only suffered 700 casualties, 3,000 against 25,000, but the casualty ratio was 1:27, which is absolutely miraculous.
So after Gao Shun reported the battle damage report, everyone present looked happy. After all, such a great victory rarely happened even around the Lord.
Young Master won such a big victory when he first joined the army. This is indeed exciting news for the Yanmen Army, which is currently suffering from internal and external troubles.
“Aren’t there any enemy generals captured?” Qin Hao suddenly asked.
Gao Shun obviously did not expect that the young master would ask this question. After thinking for a while, he replied: "Our army captured a total of six enemy generals in this battle, and five of them were willing to surrender. As for the general who was unwilling to surrender,"
“Is it Shan Xiongxin?”
"Um!"
Shan Xiongxin's failure to surrender was as expected by Qin Hao. Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty did not have a general to conquer, so how could he be so easy to conquer? However, Qin Hao believed that he would eventually conquer Shan Xiongxin. Now Qin Hao was more concerned about the other prisoners. Five generals.
It is easy to get a thousand armies but hard to find a general. With system support, Qin Hao has no shortage of top talents for the time being, but it is extremely scarce for the middle and lower levels. Recruiting enemy generals is a good way to supplement talents.
Qin Hao has always had a grand and grand plan in his mind, which is to build an army that is more elite than the broken army and is composed entirely of soldiers.
This army of the King of Soldiers is not only an invincible elite capable of recruiting good warriors, but it is also Qin Hao's talent recruitment camp, allowing Qin Hao to firmly control the military.
As for the name of this unit, Qin Hao decided to name it: Nine Dragon Guards. Named after his own weapon, the Nine Dragon Halberd, which means that this unit will become the most loyal weapon in Qin Hao's hands.
Although the defeated army is elite, they are only soldiers after all and cannot be generals. However, after Qin Hao's heart of the Nine Dragon Guards, after his vigorous training, each of them must reach the level of a third-rate or even a second-rate general, and after that, he will not be a third-rate or even a second-rate general. enter.
This army not only has to learn battle techniques in battles, but also the art of war. Individually, each person can serve as a commander or even a military commander in the army.
Qin Hao's current positioning for this unit is his own guard. After all, this team's requirements for the quality of soldiers are even higher than falling into the camp and breaking the military camp. They are destined to only take the elite route, so the guard is currently the best choice.
Since they are a guard, they are naturally loyal to Qin Hao personally, and once they become Qin Hao's guard, they will be labeled as Qin Hao from then on.
In the future, if there are excessive losses of mid-level and low-level generals in the army, or large-scale military expansion, Qin Hao can select personnel from his own guard to supplement them. This can not only improve the quality of the Yanmen Army's mid-level and low-level generals, but also strengthen Qin Hao's control over the army.
Qin Hao remembered that during the battle between generals, the Wang family sent a total of ten generals who were all second-rate generals. Although Qin Hao won the battle, not all ten generals died in the battle.
Among the three people who fought with Qin Hao, two of them fell off their horses and were captured. Qin Hao remembered that they were named Yang Sen and Ma Miao, but Qin Hao did not expect that five of these ten people actually survived!
“These five people should join my guard first. By the way, I don’t seem to have a guard yet! How many soldiers have beheaded more than ten people in this battle?”
An ordinary soldier accomplished the feat of killing ten people, which fully shows that this person already has the potential to become a middle- and low-level general. With a little training, he may become a third-rate or even second-rate military general in the future.
So Qin Hao naturally wanted to dig it out and take him into the Nine Dragon Guards to train him vigorously. Maybe he could train a general in the future.
"In this battle, there were forty-five soldiers who beheaded ten men, including twenty-one trapped in the camp, twenty-three broken barracks, and one guard. According to the promotion system of our Yanmen Army, the general will select some of the elite from among them to serve as corps commanders. !”
Qin Hao was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately laughed and said: "There are actually so many soldiers who can be killed by ten people. The broken army is indeed a team formed by gathering the best of our Yanmen army!"
Can Qin Hao be unhappy? In this way, Qin Hao can use these fifty people as prototypes to create the Nine Dragon Guards in his heart. Although it is impossible to successfully establish it immediately, it is still possible to build the framework first!
Upon hearing this, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun immediately said humbly: "Young Master, you are so complimentary."
When the generals in the garrison heard this, they immediately lowered their heads in shame. Among the forty-five places, only one of the 1,700 garrison was occupied. The decision was made!
【Hello everyone, my name is Qin Hao and I am a time traveler. What you are reading now is my story. Carrying the system and traveling to the end of the Han Dynasty, I found that this era of the end of Han Dynasty was far from being as simple as described in the history books. Even with the help of the system... well, it would be nice if this **** system didn't cause any trouble for me. This era is completely different from the Three Kingdoms I imagined. There are hundreds of families, aristocratic families, and rivers and lakes. In short, the water is very deep. The power relations behind the Yellow Turban Uprising are complicated and everything has become so confusing. However, no matter how difficult it is, I will still face it, because I have only one goal, and that is to unify the world. This is not only my task, but also a mission that I must complete!
