In Xiacheng dungeon, Huaxiong, a military general captured in Luoyang, is about to be executed. Fang Xuanling is the supervisor of the execution.

Hua Xiong was scared out of his wits and turned pale.

He didn't expect that Chutian really wanted to kill him.

He was one of the most powerful generals in Xiliang. Countless lords wanted him to be loyal, but Chu Tian killed him mercilessly. Is he Huaxiong of no value to be used?

"General Huaxiong is loyal to Dong Zhuo. Then I will fulfill the reputation of general Huaxiong's loyalty and let his reputation of loyalty last forever."

Fang Xuanling came over with two swordsmen and sharpened their swords to Huaxiong.

Hua Xiong is more afraid. He wants to surrender, but he has insisted on it until now. If he surrenders like this What do Langya Xiang and general Fubo think of themselves?

"Somebody, send general Hua Xiong on the road!"

Fang Xuanling, with a straight face and a serious tone, does not seem to be joking.

Two soldiers behind him had already pressed down Huaxiong, who was bound in all kinds of clothes. The swordsman drew on Huaxiong's back neck. The cold blade of the axe made Hua Xiong scared.

This is over.

"What are you doing, master?"

Chu Tian appeared in time with Hua Mulan and Li Guang to stop Fang Xuanling.

Fang Xuanling said: "my Lord, general Huaxiong has incomparable kindness. His subordinates intend to fulfill general Huaxiong."

The righteous words of Chu Tian said: "it's ridiculous. General Huaxiong only didn't meet the Mingzhu, which made the Pearl dust. General Hua Xiong's loyalty should be used in the right way. Good birds choose trees to live in, and good officials choose their masters. I believe general Hua Xiong will understand my good intentions one day. Untie general Hua Xiong quickly. "

"General Fubo..."

Huaxiong was in a desperate situation, and his liking for Chutian rose sharply, almost crying.

"General Hua Xiong, please get up. If you can get the help of general Hua Xiong and command the Xiliang cavalry, then you can't worry about the big things. "

Chu Tian helps Hua Xiong to get up, but Hua Mulan and Li Guang behind Chu Tian are always on guard to prevent Hua Xiong from killing Chu Tian.

Hua Xiong was so scared by Fang Xuanling that he could not stand up until he could stand up: "thank you, general Fubo. Hua Xiong is willing to serve for the general and lead Xiliang cavalry to defeat the strong enemy for the general!"

"Ding! You have the loyalty of King level general Hua Xiong. "

[name]: Hua Xiong

[talent]: King level general (riding system)

[level]: 90

[identity]: Dong Zhuo and Liangzhou generals

[loyalty]: 70

[commander]: 72 [force]: 90 [intelligence]: 41 [politics]: 20 [charm]: 30

[physiognomy]: recklessness

[good feeling]: 65

[characteristic 1] : all heroes in tetany (S-level exclusive feature, attack power + 12%, enemy morale decline speed + 6% (up to 18%) when killing an enemy's general above gold level)

[feature 2]: heavy riding assault (A-level feature, when commanding heavy cavalry, charging speed of heavy cavalry + 5%, impact force + 10%)

[feature 3]: Reckless general (negative characteristic, troops suffer from ambush, confusion, suspicion and attack)

[special arms]: Xiliang iron cavalry (seven level heavy cavalry, up to 1000)

Hua Xiong happens to be a king level general, which is OK. Most importantly, Hua Xiong is a heavy cavalry general.

Using Fang Xuanling's strategy to subdue Huaxiong, Chu Tian's conscience will not hurt at all. It's just that Hua Xiong's loyalty is a little lower, so he needs to have time to integrate into Langya's small circle.

Hua Xiong's negative characteristics are also very fatal. Basically, he has no brain and can not take charge of his own affairs.

Fortunately, as long as Huaxiong's Xiliang cavalry obeys the commander-in-chief's order, they can attack the enemy's square array without brains.

Hua Xiong should not be allowed to become an army alone. He must be under the command of a senior general.

Chu Tian wrote it down in his heart.

"There are still a group of Xiliang cavalry who have not surrendered. Go and persuade them to surrender and make their first contribution."

Chutian soon gave Huaxiong his first task.

Hua Xiong said in a sharp voice: "at the end of the day, I will promise to persuade them to surrender for the Lord!"

It seems that Hua Xiong has broken the jar. Since he surrendered, he doesn't have to worry about face.

Because of Huaxiong's appearance, all 1000 Xiliang cavalry surrendered and formally joined the organization of Xiacheng.

Huaxiong has only 1000 special arms, but it can play a decisive role in small and medium-sized battles.

"Huaxiong decided to surrender, so Xu Rong should surrender soon."

"Please don't worry. As long as you don't have a blind eye, with Xu Rong's talent, you will not be willing to spend your life in the dungeon."

Seeing Fang Xuanling determined, Chu Tian was not anxious.

If Xu Rong was not willing to surrender, he would have to be sent to prison.

Langya state is full of talents, even famous generals in the dungeon. Isn't it beautiful.

Huaxiong is tall and powerful. He had just surrendered to Chutian. After he had summoned all the Xiliang cavalry for Chutian, Hua Xiong was eager to express his loyalty to Chu Tian: "what else can I do for you, my lord? Hua Xiong is willing to go through fire and water. He will never give up in death and never betray."“……”

Chu Tian seems to have heard Hua Xiong show his loyalty to Dong Zhuo not long ago.

After all, loyal generals like Zhao Yun are rare, and most of them may betray after being captured for a period of time.

So the best way to prevent subordinates from betraying is to prevent them from being captured.

"You train Xiliang steeds, and keep a low profile."

Chu Tian intends to take Hua Xiong as the base card of the decisive battle in Xuzhou.

At present, the average level of Xiliang iron cavalry is 65. Among all the troops in Xiacheng, they are veterans or Armored Cavalry. They are all invincible!

Huaxiong regained command of Xiliang Tieqi and stationed in Xiacheng. Meanwhile, Chu Tian temporarily ordered Li Guang to supervise Huaxiong to prevent Huaxiong from defecting with Xiliang Tieqi. If Hua Xiong defected, he would be killed.

Hua Xiong is still a strong general in Dong Zhuo's power, but not enough in Xiacheng. Li Guang can cut Huaxiong with warm wine.

Liangshan Town, as the base of the navy camp, needs a large population to support the camp and provide supplies for the camp. Because a large number of people are concentrated in Liangshan Town, Liangshan town has been upgraded to a third class town.

Xu Sheng returned to Liangshan town to preside over the expansion of the navy camp.

The number of Navy battalions was temporarily expanded from 2000 to 10000, including 15 battle ships, 40 boats, a small number of sentinel ships and a large number of grain carriers.

The cabins and planks are covered with cowhide and can be fireproof. There are three cabins above the deck, each with crossbow windows and spear holes on all sides, which can be used to attack enemies in all directions. Powered by wood pulp.

In order to control Yihe River and transport grain when attacking xiapi, he must have a navy.

After the area of the Yi River was expanded ten times, the river was still considerable enough to accommodate tens of thousands of sailors to fight together.

"There are 1000 archers in the fourth rank of Dongwu Navy, 3000 archers of low-level Navy, and 6000 fufu soldiers."

Xu Sheng recruited the army according to the establishment, but still thought that the number of warships was too small, so he asked Chu Tian to increase the number of Pang warships to 30 and the number of Zouke to 60.

A large number of husbandmen were recruited to paddle and carry grain. Their monthly wages were less than one or two, and the combined wages were less than 600 high-level services.

"In order to attack xiapi City, there will be a water war, and the proficiency of the navy soldiers must be improved."

Experience can be gained from the training of Governor Xu Sheng, Governor Xu Sheng, in the training of 4000 sailors and 6000 soldiers, as well as the training of their physique.

Tao Qian has sent scouts into Liangshan town to observe its forces.

Liangshan Town, originally unknown, became one of the key towns that Tao Qian paid attention to.

Both sides are sending scouts and players to spy on each other's forces and details.

When Chu Tian learned of Tao Qian's deployment, Tao Qian naturally sent scouts to spy on Chu Tian's forces.

"There are about 3000 or 4000 Jiashi and thousands of fufu in Liangshan town. Please guard against it

"Before that, there were only over 2000 Jiashi and fufu in Liangshan town? Why are there nearly ten thousand people now? "

Tao Qian was surprised to learn that Liangshan town was expanding its navy.

Chu Tian's expansion of the navy was obviously aimed at attacking the south along the Yi River and capturing the two core cities of Tao Qian, Tancheng and xiapi.

It can be said that Chu Tian's upstream expedition against the lower reaches of the river is the best, while Tao Qian is at a disadvantage in the lower reaches.

"My Yi River navy has 20000, which should have been led by Mi Fang, but there is no general available now."

Tao Qian has met a problem that has puzzled him all the time - he has no famous general in his hand.

Xiang Yan, commander-in-chief of the bowmen, and Yang Wudi, the cavalry captain, are all generals borrowed from foreign Lords.

Originally, MI fang had a certain bonus from the commander-in-chief of the Navy, but Mi fang had a close relationship with Chu Tian, and Tao Qian did not dare to use it.

Therefore, Tao Qian had to make Cao Bao a general of the Navy.

Tao Qian also recruited to work in the governance, Tancheng Wang Lang, as Cao Bao's military division, to act together.

Wang Lang is also known as Wang situ. His granddaughter Wang Yuanji married Sima Zhao, Emperor Wen of Jin Dynasty, and gave birth to Sima Yan, Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty.

Although Wang Lang was not a good general, he was still a bit resourceful. He readily accepted Tao Qian's appointment to assist Cao Bao in commanding the Yihe Navy.

Maybe Wang Lang doesn't know how miserable the real battlefield is, but his opponent with Cao Bao is brave general Xu Sheng

Meanwhile, Xiang Yan and Yang Ye will formally take over Tao Qian's troops.

"There are 1500 heavy cavalry and 30000 light cavalry."

Yang Ye counts the number of United cavalry and finds himself holding a strong soldier.

The number of cavalry of 30000 is absolutely large.

In addition to 30000 cavalry, the United Army also had more than 100000 archers and 20000 Navy divisions. The troops gathered in Tancheng area were large enough to block the South advancing front of Langya state.

"It is said that Langya has 50000 soldiers on hand, and it is now expanding its army, which is expected to maintain up to 100000 soldiers. Half of them are new recruits, and they may be left behind by Chu zimou to defend the city. So we are really facing 50000 people of Chu Zimu, with 10000 new soldiers at most. We have a heavy cavalry of 1500 men in our hands. In the Plains along the Yihe River, we can break through the military array of Chu Zimu at a critical moment. "The Lord of Guangling County, as the Lord of Yang Wudi, had no lack of brain, and could easily infer the strength of Chu Tian.

His conjecture is also very close to the fact that Chutian could not send all 100000 troops southward. He would certainly keep new soldiers to guard the city.

He concluded that Chu Tian would lead 50000 veterans and 10000 new soldiers to the south, a total of 60000 troops.

The mistake made by the leader of Guangling county was that he didn't expect that there would be a combination of Huaxiong and Xiliang iron cavalry in Chutian, nor did he expect that there would be a military general in Chutian, the princess of Pingyang, Li Xiuning.

Li Xiuning's women's army can be compared to the open-air. As long as there are qualified sources of troops, they can recruit women's army. Even the worst equipped weapons are also high-level arms.

The third mistake is that Lu Zhi, who did not know that one of the "three heroes of the late Han Dynasty", had agreed to serve as a military adviser to Chutian when necessary.

The fourth mistake

"We have a large army and should take the initiative to launch the offensive rather than passive defense."

Knowing that he had 1500 heavy cavalry and 30000 light cavalry, Yang ye had the idea of taking the initiative to attack.

He is an offensive general, different from Xiang Yan, a defensive general.

"Wrong, we have many soldiers, but we will not be broad..."

The Lord of Guangling County once counted the military generals owned by Chu Tian, including Xue Rengui, Zhao Yun, Li Guang, Hua Mulan, Xu Sheng, Mount Tai bandits, and a suspected General of Zhou Yafu.

Together with Tao Qian, the Lords of the remaining four counties in Xuzhou put together a combination of Xiang Yan, Yang Ye, Song Jiang, Cao Bao, and even Wang Lang used them.

Yang ye asked: "the last general can lead a cavalry to invade Langya, attract the cavalry out of the city to reinforce, and then ambush it."

"Are you sure?"

"Sure. Before the decisive battle, if we can demoralize their soldiers, reduce their morale and destroy their cavalry, the winning rate of the decisive battle can be 30%

"Do what you want."

The Lord of Guangling County thought about it and finally decided to let Yang Ye interfere with the preparation of Langya state.

Yang Ye led ten thousand light cavalry to leave Tancheng and move to Qiuxian County in the north, threatening Liangshan town and Xiacheng.

"Yang Ye took the initiative to lead 10000 cavalry to attack!"

"Send a team of archers to take over. If Yang Ye is defeated by the cavalry of Langya state, it will take over."

Xiang Yan cooperated with Yang Ye for the first time. Out of careful consideration, Xiang Yan decided to send 20000 infantry to meet Yang Ye.

"Tao Qian still has a Danyang soldier in his hand, but he is not willing to take it out. This Danyang soldier is his main force, and also his power to frighten all the great families in Xuzhou. It is estimated that he is afraid that after handing over the Danyang soldiers, he will be ignored by us. "

The Lord of Xiang Yan once asked Tao Qian for a special kind of army, Danyang soldiers, to fight against Langya state. However, Tao Qian was not willing to give the Danyang soldiers to an alien general.

Xiang Yan pondered: "if I could recruit thousands of special arms It's easy to destroy Langya. "

"Defeat Chu Zimu and occupy Langya state. When my power expands, I will set up a high-level infantry battalion to recruit arms for you."

The Lord of Xiang Yan made a promise.

On the other side, Yang Ye led ten thousand light cavalry to invade Langya state, bypassing Jiqiu county and threatening Xiacheng.

"Cavalry, cavalry of Tao Qian's United Army!"

There are 5000 soldiers stationed in Jiqiu County, most of them new soldiers, to defend the city. When they see the dust rolling outside Jiqiu county and the dark cavalry passing by, they can't help but feel numb.

Although there is no fear that the cavalry will attack the city, Qiu county may be surrounded, or the other side has other plans.

That is to say, Wu Dun, the general of Qiu county, immediately asked a stranger to inform Xiacheng: "tell the Lord that there are about 10000 enemies riding into Langya state. The purpose is unknown!"
