Three Kingdoms: Peak Summons

Chapter 44 Yanmen Military System: Three Thousand to Twenty Thousand

Chapter 43: Yanmen military system: 3,000 vs. 20,000

Welfare is only one of the reasons why the Yanmen Army can maintain a high combat effectiveness. The most important thing is that the Yanmen Army has a relatively complete military system.

The Yanmen Army implements the "separation of combat and defense systems". The army is divided into combat soldiers and garrison soldiers. The combat soldiers are the best paid, the strongest combat power, and the largest unit in the Yanmen Army. Forty thousand people.

 War soldiers do not have to work in peacetime. The only thing they have to do is to train, train and train again, and to defend Yanmen Pass.

Yanmen Army's 40,000 soldiers were stationed at the front line of Guangwu City at Yanmen Pass, so it is clear that Qin Wen attached great importance to the Xiongnu.

Forty thousand soldiers will definitely not expand the army. It's not that Qin Wen doesn't want to, but the population of Yanmen is only 400,000. The ratio of one to ten is the limit that Yanmen County can afford. Any more will be a militancy.

Qin Wen was just the governor of Yanmen, and his 40,000 troops were already the limit. If he had more troops, he would be suspected of relying on his own troops, and thus lose the trust and support of the court.

 There are two types of garrison soldiers, one is the county soldiers and the other is the garrison soldiers.

 County soldiers are mainly responsible for the defense and public security of the thirteen counties of Yanmen. They are also the reserve of combat soldiers. Once the loss of combat soldiers is too large, elites will be drawn from the garrison to make up for it immediately, thus maintaining the continuous combat capability of the combat soldiers.

As the name suggests, the field soldiers are troops who train while working in the fields. They are also the reserve force of the county soldiers. Whenever the garrison fills more than half of the gap in the number of soldiers, elite soldiers will be immediately drawn from the field soldiers to fill it.

Among the thirteen counties of Yanmen, except for Guangwu, which has 1,000 county soldiers and 2,000 field soldiers, the other counties only have 500 garrison troops and 1,000 garrison troops. The entire county has 7,000 county soldiers, 12,000 garrison soldiers, and a total of 20,000 garrison troops. soldiers.

The 20,000 defenders were soldiers raised privately by the Qin family and were not considered regular troops, and the court did not know about it.

The reason why Qin Wen confidently led 30,000 troops to support Dai County was because he believed that the remaining defenders were enough to defend Yanmen Pass, but he did not expect that the Wang family would rebel at this time.

Just when everyone was frightened and thinking wildly about Fang Jie's arrival, Qin Hao was secretly happy, thinking that he had summoned the right one this time, and the Bronze Hammer General, one of the eight hammers, was fierce.

Although he did not see the scene at that time, Qin Hao could fully imagine how exciting the scene of the three generals fighting Qin Yong was.

Fang Jie, Shan Xiongxin, and Wang Renze were all military generals who left a strong mark in history, but the combined efforts of the three of them could not defeat Qin Yong.

And listening to Qin Yong's tone, if he can have a top-notch war horse, he may not be able to win three against one, which shows how strong Qin Yong is.

Although this record is not as good as Xiang Yu's one-on-eight, it is still very impressive. Doesn't Qin Yong lack a mount? Give the mount card you just got to Qin Yong, and give the magic weapon card to Zhang Liao. Qin Hao thought secretly.

 “Use mount cards and magic weapon cards.” Qin Hao secretly ordered the system.

“Dingdong, congratulations to the host for acquiring the top war horse ‘Black Whirlwind’, which is currently in the stables of the Prefect’s Mansion.”

“Congratulations to the host for obtaining the magical weapon ‘Qingtian Gou Lian Dao’, which is currently placed in the host’s room.”

After everyone realized the news that Fang Jie was in the Wang family, they saw Hao Juncheng's face was ashen and he said through gritted teeth:

"The Wang family not only colluded with the Xiongnu, but also colluded with the Yellow Turbans. They deserve to die. If I had known today, I should have agreed with my lord to get rid of the Wang family. I regret it."

“It’s not about collusion, it should be about mutual use.”

 Qin Hao's eyes flashed, and he sneered at Qin Yong and asked: "If I guessed correctly, the only representatives of the Yellow Turban this time should be Dongfang Sheng and Fang Jie."

 After Qin Yong thought for a moment, he nodded and said, "Well, there are indeed only two of them!"

"That's right. I'm sure that this time it was Dongfang Sheng who made the decision privately. Otherwise, the Yellow Turbans wouldn't have sent just two people here." Qin Hao sneered and said, "If I'm not wrong, the Wang family will capture the underworld." The county queen did not immediately attack the surrounding counties, but stayed in place and recruited troops in the name of Dongfang Sheng, right? "

"Um!"

Qin Yong was stunned for a moment, then said worriedly: "The Wang family recruits troops according to the same treatment as our Yanmen army. Coupled with the banner of Zhang Jiao's daughter, people in Yanmen who are dissatisfied with the Han Dynasty responded one after another. The number of supporters now is probably close to 20,000, and it is still growing.”

Although Yanmen's people's living standards have been much better than before under Qin Wen's governance over the past few years, many people are still dissatisfied with the Han Dynasty.

And because Yanmen has accepted a large number of immigrants in recent years, many of these refugees are Yellow Turban believers, thus laying the foundation for disaster. This is also the main reason why the Wang family can grow so quickly.

“Haha, it’s true.” Qin Hao’s eyes lit up and he said with a slight smile.

"Young Master, there is something unclear about the general. Since the Wang family already has 20,000 people, why don't they continue to attack other counties to expand their strength, but instead stay in place? Judging from the military strength of each county, it is unlikely that they can defend it. ." Gao Shun, who was standing aside, asked in confusion.

Qin Hao sneered and explained: "Wang Shichong is boiling the frog in warm water.

The Wang family has a lot of troops, but most of them are new soldiers. He is afraid that if our army is pressed for attack by attacking everywhere, once our army gives up defense and gathers all the garrisons from various counties together, then their scattered forces will be defeated by us one by one. .

So the Wang family did not attack other counties, but defended the Yin Pavilion to accumulate strength. Attacking with 20,000 new soldiers may not be possible, but the defense is enough.

In addition, Yin Guan is the second largest city in Yanmen. The city is high and the walls are thick, so it cannot be taken easily, but the losses in the attack will be huge.

Wang Shichang was sure that when foreign enemies were present, our army would never waste too much strength in the underworld. If we couldn't do anything about them, our army would transfer its main energy to the Xiongnu. We will never give up Yanmen Pass, and neither will the Xiongnu. Once the losses of the soldiers guarding the pass are too great, reinforcements will definitely be sent. At that time, they can sit back and watch our Yanmen Army fight with the Huns and reap the benefits. "

Qin Hao spoke unhurriedly, as if he was talking about an extremely ordinary thing, but the listeners became more and more frightened.

If it is true as the young master said, this king's life is really terrible. How come such a scheming person has never been heard of before?

“When our army and the Xiongnu are almost exhausted, the Wang family can capture Yanmen at the minimum cost. The Wang family is really good at planning.” Zhang Liao took a breath and said in horror.

Now he finally understands why the young master is so anxious to come back to suppress the Wang family's rebellion, but he doesn't understand why the young master is sure that this plan is Wang Shichong's idea?

This Wang Shichong was obviously not well-known, but Zhang Liao couldn't understand why the young master valued him so much.

The reason why Qin Hao is so sure that this plan was Wang Shichong's idea is well-founded. You must know that the Wang family had previously planned to dedicate Yanmen Pass to the Xiongnu. For this reason, the head of the Wang family did not hesitate to let his son Wang Hui lurk into the Yanmen Army. , so Qin Hao was sure that the Wang family had already surrendered to the Huns before they sent troops.

But now the Wang family has completely decided to separate Yanmen, so who changed the Wang family's decision?

 The answer is obvious. Only Wang Shichong, the second master of the Wang family who has just been balanced, has this ability.

"Although the Wang family's plan is clever, there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the mountains. I think Brother Hao must have a strategy to defeat the enemy, right?" Qin Yong looked at Qin Hao expectantly and said.

In Qin Yong's memory, Qin Hao, a member of the clan, has always been full of wisdom and tricks since he was a child, and after hearing a series of bad news, he didn't panic at all, so Qin Yong believed and hoped that Qin Hao would have strategies to defeat the enemy.

"That's right. Although Wang Shichong has a good plan, I will not let it go as he wants. Tomorrow I will personally lead three thousand elite soldiers to fight to the death with the Wang family." Qin Hao said with a faint smile.

"Three thousand? Young Master, although Guangwu City only has 3,000 garrison troops, we can still gather 10,000 troops from various counties. In my opinion, we should wait for the army to arrive before starting the conquest." Hao Juncheng advised. road.

Qin Hao smiled slightly and said confidently: "Mr. Hao misunderstood. This time I only brought 800 to trap the camp, 500 to break the military camp, and then transferred 1,700 to me from the 3,000 guards in the underworld, for a total of 3,000 people, which is too much don't want."

Hao Juncheng was stunned when he heard this. The more troops the better, the better. Why did his own son do the opposite?

Qin Hao also knew that everyone was full of doubts at this time, so he confidently explained: "Do you know about the Battle of Pengcheng?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this and frowned. Naturally, everyone knew about the Battle of Pengcheng. It was a great war between Chu and Han in April of the second year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty.

 The Battle of Pengcheng was the biggest defeat Liu Bang had suffered since he started his army.

Relying on Xiang Yu's resolute and courageous command, the Chu army defeated the Han army's 560,000 allied forces of princes with 30,000 elite divisions within half a day, annihilating Liu Bang's main force, and putting Liu Bang into a crisis situation where "the old and weak in the pass were sent to Xingyang". It created a model of medium-speed and decisive battles in ancient wars, and was a famous example in Chinese history of defeating more with less.

Zhang Liao's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he asked: "Young Master, do you want to..."

"That's right." Qin Hao said with a faint smile: "If the Wang family wants our army to turn all its attention to the Xiongnu, it must make our army suffer losses once or twice.

However, the Wang family also knows that the soldiers are not as powerful as our army, so if they bring too many troops, the Wang family will definitely be unable to get out. Only with a small number of troops can the Wang family dare to go out of the city and fight our army to the death.

Although three thousand soldiers and horses are not many, if they are elite, they can still defeat an army of 20,000 head-on. "

Hao Juncheng was obviously still not persuaded by Qin Hao. He frowned and said: "Young Master, are you a little too adventurous..."

Hao Juncheng was interrupted by Gao Shun before he finished speaking.

 “Being trapped in the camp guarantees the completion of the mission.”

 “The broken army camp is willing to die for the young master.”

Hearing this, Hao Juncheng pointed at Gao Shun and Zhang Liao and said sternly: "You are putting the young master in danger!"

Gao Shun and Zhang Liao immediately smiled bitterly when they heard this. Qin Hao smiled lightly and persuaded: "Mr. Hao, there is no way to fight without taking risks. Don't worry, I'm sure."

Hao Juncheng saw that Qin Hao had been calm and calm so far, and was infected by his calmness. He sighed and said: "Young master, are you so sure that the Wang family will come out of the city to fight? What if you don't come out?"

“If the head of the Wang family is Wang Shichong, I’m really not sure, but the head of the Wang family is Wang Xiong, and Wang Xiong’s son Wang Hui died in my hands at Yanmen Pass not long ago.

Mr. Hao, you said that the enemy who killed his son appeared in front of Wang Xiong with only three thousand soldiers and horses. Can Wang Xiong bear it? "

Qin Hao looked at Hao Juncheng with a faint smile and said playfully: "So there is no such thing as a chance."

Seeing that Qin Hao looked like he had the pearls of wisdom in hand, Hao Juncheng said no more.
