After the battle of conquering Shu, the Jin army obtained a large number of prisoners of the Shu army. Among these prisoners, the most precious ones were probably the group of prisoners from the White Robe Army and the group of prisoners from the Xiliu Camp.
Since this battle, the Jin army has encountered many soldiers and horses from these elite battalions, and the Jin army has even personally eliminated more than one of these elite battalion soldiers and horses.
As for the soldiers and horses of these elite battalions, their fighting will and fighting qualities are far from ordinary soldiers and horses and can be compared. Under normal circumstances, it would be extremely difficult to capture large numbers of soldiers and horses from these elite battalions.
However, there are always exceptions to everything. This time, Li Xiang has captured a large number of soldiers from the White Robe Army and soldiers from the Xiliu Camp.
After all, the core of an elite battalion is their commander. In the battle to conquer Shu, Chen Qingzhi, the commander-in-chief of the White Robe Army, and Zhou Yafu, the commander-in-chief of the Xiliu Camp, surrendered to the Jin army when they were most forced to do so. When they were short of food and exhausted, they could only become prisoners without the strength to resist.
Under such circumstances, a large number of soldiers from the elite battalion were captured.
Therefore, Li Xiang had the idea of reorganizing these two elite battalions. With most of the soldiers present, reorganizing these two elite battalions would be many times easier than going from 0 to 1.
However, King Xiang has a heart, but the goddess has no dreams. At present, Zhou Yafu is still in a stubborn state and has not been asked to surrender at once.
If it were anyone else, Li Xiang might just shoot him and kill him. He is no longer lacking in talent like in the early stage. When the power has developed to this level, it has passed the state of putting down one's body and seeking talents.
However, Zhou Yafu can be regarded as a general, and the Xiliu Camp he trained can be regarded as an elite infantry combatant. There is a lot of water in the south, so the performance of the cavalry cannot be compared with that in the north. If there is an elite infantry force like Xiliu Camp, it will be easier in the future.
Because of this, Li Xiang didn't mind giving Zhou Yafu more patience and put him in a prison first to temper his temper. If you can't give in in one day, it will take a year. If not, there will still be ten years.
Anyway, no matter how poor Lao Li was, he would not be short of money for that meal.
Precisely because Zhou Yafu had not surrendered yet, the establishment of the Xiliu Camp could only be temporarily shelved, while Li Xiang prepared to rebuild the White Robe Army first.
In fact, Li Xiang not only wants to reorganize a white robe army, but also reorganize a more powerful white robe army.
The quality of the soldiers of the White Robe Army is not bad, and they definitely meet the standards of an elite battalion. In addition, the captured soldiers of the White Robe Army have reached half of its full strength. This part of the soldiers of the White Robe Army who were captured by him are Basically, the personnel of the White Robe Army is not a problem, and the time to restore its strength will be shortened a lot.
Although Liu Che tried every means to raise the war horses used by the White Robe Army from various channels, if Li Xiang wanted to equip the White Robe Army with war horses, the configuration would definitely be much higher than Liu Che's.
Therefore, as long as the reconstruction of the White Robe Army is completed, the newly formed White Robe Army can definitely reach a higher level.
Chen Qingzhi is indeed a very powerful general. Although his basic commander level is only 99 points, let alone reaching the god level, he has not even reached the peerless peak level.
However, under certain circumstances, he was able to explode to a level that even surpassed that of a god-level commander.
Of course, the less the fight, the more temporary pleasure, and the long-term crematorium. When it comes to war, it is better to use superior forces to defeat the opponent's weak forces, rather than trying to defeat the strong with the weak.
However, there is absolutely no absolute victory of the weak against the strong in this world. The so-called victory of the weak against the strong means that on the surface the enemy is strong and we are weak, but in fact, one's own side must be stronger than the enemy, and it has given full play to its own strong side.
During this battle, although many generals were captured or surrendered, Chen Qingzhi was the one that Li Xiang valued most, not Jiufeng and Jiuchong who had reached the level of divine generals.
It is also because the reconstruction work of the White Robe Army has just begun at this time, if the reconstruction of the White Robe Army has been completed at this time. Maybe Chen Qingzhi would become one of the generals who followed Huo Qubing to Xizhou, allowing the white-robed army to compete with the cavalry on the grassland.
………………
Yanzhou!
Dou Jiande's forces, with Xue Wanche as their commander, Niu Mo, Niu Hong, Niu Hei, Wang Deren, Gao Shunli, Gao Sixiang, Xue Wanjun, Liu Heita and other generals attacked Yanzhou Taishan County.
Taishan County may not be the most garrisoned county in Yanzhou, but it is the largest. Moreover, Taishan County is just south of Dou Jiande's forces, so it naturally becomes the first choice target of Dou Jiande's forces.
In the early days of the war, Su Qin did not let Dou Jiande's forces take action immediately. At the beginning, it was just a slogan.
After Liu Bei and Zhao Kuangyin actually sent troops to attack and even officially fought, Su Qin asked Xue Wanche to officially send troops.
Chi You can now be said to be unable to defeat four enemies with two fists. Not to mention that there are two unstable factors internally, waiting for him to resolve. Zhao Kuangyin's troops and Liu Bei's two groups of troops were all things that Chi needed to worry about.
Although Chi You accepted the advice of his advisers to temporarily negotiate with the two internal ones, and even promised to recognize their status in exchange for the unification of internal forces, he could concentrate on dealing with external crises.
However, this is still not enough.
Chi You sent general Chai Rong to guard Langya and resist Zhao She's troops in the south. Yellow Turban generals Zang Ba and Li Yan resisted Guan Yu in the north. Zhang Dingbian sat in the center and coordinated all directions. Chi You personally sent troops to fight against Xu Shiji.
Chi You, who was short of food and grass, simply did not dare to fight this war into a protracted war. If it dragged on, the crisis he faced would be more and more exposed, and in the end it would most likely end in collapse without a fight. You can't always rely on that method to solve the food and grass crisis, right?
This method is fine for short-term emergencies, but wouldn't it be crazy to treat it as a long-term source of food and grass?
Therefore, Chi You always thought of a quick victory.
However, none of the remaining three wanted to fight him quickly. They all took advantage of Chi You's weaknesses to delay, waiting until Chi You's internal crisis broke out, and then beat him up.
During this process, most of Chi You's troops and horses were used to fight against Guan Yu, Xu Shiji, and Zhao She. After this time, Su Qin finally decided to take action, letting Xue Wanche be the main general and Niu Mo and his son as the vanguard. Taishan County.
