"Cunxiao, the goal of 30,000 people is very big. Although the Lord has made it clear that the gates of Yecheng will be opened by then, but just in case, the general must lead a thousand people to raid Yecheng. I will lead the army at the rear!"
"Remember, after breaking the city, go straight to the Governor's Mansion and don't delay!"
From Wang Yu's letter, although Wang Yu has confirmed that there must be their manpower in Yecheng, Guan Zhong is not a person who places all his hopes on others.
What's more, it's someone they don't know!
Guan Zhong, Li Cunxiao and their entourage competed in martial arts to recruit relatives and achieved their goals, but they did not leave.
First, it will take time for Li Cunxiao to get married.
Secondly, their real goal is to control the men of the Seven Dragon Gang, and this will also take time.
Although the Qijiao Gang is not a top gang, although the quality is not enough, the quantity alone has destined that there are many factions in this gang. Only after Guan Zhong had eradicated all these troubles could he truly control this force.
It was at this time that Wang Yu once again had the idea of taking action against Hebei Road.
As a result, Han Xin's troops marched out of Jiming, while Guan Zhong took the water route and approached Yecheng, the largest city in Hebei Province.
However, Yecheng was not built by the river after all. Even if Guan Zhong took the water route, there was still a considerable section of the land route that they needed to walk by themselves.
And these 30,000 people, with many people and many eyes, may be able to hide from the eyes and ears of the court on the waterway, but they have no such ability on the land road.
Once their movements are detected by the imperial court and the city gates of Yecheng cannot be opened, there is no guarantee whether this operation will be successful!
First of all, these troops are from Jianghu gangs, not the army. If used alone to show off their ferocity, they might not be any worse than the army. But this is a war, and compared with the army, they are just a "rabble".
Secondly, although these 30,000 people have weapons in their hands, they are not wearing armor, let alone iron armor, not even leather or cloth armor.
If such an "army" were used to attack the city head-on, Guan Zhong would have no idea. Even if he was given two or three months to train these people, Guan Zhong would be more confident.
However, he does not have this time now.
"The final general only needs a hundred men! However, he also needs a hundred horses! A hundred armored stomachs." Although Li Cunxiao accepted Guan Zhong's mission, there were differences in the strength of the troops.
No matter how you say it, the Qijiao Gang is not a big or small gang. They have got a hundred war horses, but Li Cunxiao still believes that they have a way to come up with them.
As for a hundred armored stomachs, iron armor may be impossible, but ordinary armored stomachs still exist.
"A hundred riders?"
Everyone present looked at each other in confusion. Is this elder brother-in-law just joking? Although people like them from the Qijiao Gang have never fought in a war, they also know that using a hundred people to attack a city is not equivalent to filling someone's teeth, isn't it?
Even now, the troops and horses of Hebei Province are basically in the three cities on the front line. However, as the most important town in Hebei Province, there must be 5,000 people no matter what!
Moreover, these five thousand people are only soldiers and horses for normal defense. Soldiers and horses cannot represent the entire defensive strength of a city, especially such a large city.
Within a city, the government officials of each government can also act as part of the force at critical times. Even the servants of each family and even the prisoners in the prison may be used.
Li Cunxiao explained: "Of course, I need to personally select these 100 people from 30,000 people, and everyone must be able to mount a war horse!"
"War is not a child's play, Cunxiao. Although you are brave, what can a hundred cavalry do? No matter how elite you are, a large number of crossbowmen can shoot down random arrows and kill all of you, right?" Guan Zhong was patient and pleasant. Discuss with Li Cunxiao.
Li Cunxiao's strength is obvious to all. At less than twenty years old, he has already reached the level of a god general, and his future achievements are limitless.
However, if a city can be destroyed by just one divine general, then why have these seven dynasties been able to rule the mainland for so many years? I'm afraid it has already been overturned!
After all, the power of an individual cannot be compared with the power of the collective. No matter how strong the individual is, as long as the collective is larger, it will be enough to suppress the individual's power.
"If we have too many troops, the enemy will definitely be aware of it. If we guard behind closed doors, we will inevitably cause casualties if we try to break the city. But if you only give me a hundred elite troops, we can quietly fight to the bottom of Ye City and defeat the enemy." I was caught off guard." Li Cunxiao explained.
Guan Zhong closed his eyes slightly, frowned, and said thoughtfully: "If there are only a hundred people, the target is naturally much smaller, and they can easily get close to Ye City. But how much fighting power does a hundred people have? Even if the gate of Ye City is open, What if I let you into the city?"
Li Cunxiao patted his chest and said confidently: "There is no joke in the army. The last general issued a military order in front of the soldiers of the three armies. If you can't do what you say, you are willing to be punished by military law!"
Li Cunxiao had already talked about the military order to this extent, and Guan Zhong couldn't agree even if he wanted to!
Guan Zhong nodded, and Li Cunxiao immediately selected his favorite candidate from among 30,000 people. After half an hour, Li Cunxiao finally selected the candidate he was satisfied with.
One hundred people, plus Li Cunxiao, plus the seven people who followed Li Cunxiao, An Xiuxiu, Xue Atan, Li Hanzhi, Fu Cunshen, Xue Tieshan, He Heihu, and Pan Zhong, exactly 108 people, rushed away quickly. .
"Ding, the second effect of Li Cunxiao's Flying Tiger skill is activated. When he leads a force of less than 500 people in a surprise attack, his own commander +3, all his own soldiers' strength +2, and all generals except himself +1's strength.
Li Cunxiao's current basic commander is 85 (92), commander +3, and Li Cunxiao's commander has increased to 88.
An Xiuxiu's force +1, the base force is 96, and the current force has increased to 97.
Xue Atan's strength is +1, his base strength is 96, and his current strength has increased to 97.
Fu Cunshen's force +1, his base force is 97, and his current force has increased to 98.
Xue Tieshan's military force is +1, his basic military force is 95, and his current military force has increased to 96.
He Heihu's force +1, the base force is 95, and the current force has increased to 96.
Li Hanzhi's force +1...
Pan Zhong……”
"Ding, affected by Li Cunxiao's flying tiger skill, all soldiers have +2 strength."
The sound of horse hoofs rumbled, and a hundred horsemen galloped like flying under the leadership of Li Cunxiao. The knights on the horses felt that they were in excellent condition, moving quickly and with ease.
Although Li Cunxiao was steadfast in his oath, Guan Zhong was still a little worried and decisively asked everyone to go on the road with all their strength. After landing, although they still had to walk a land route, with all their strength on the road, even if they were far slower than Li Cunxiao and the others, it would take half a day longer. time can also be reached.
