Two hours later, the army set off on time.
There was no delay in meeting Liu Zhang's request.
This is the discipline of the strongest troops trapped in the camp.
It doesn't matter how many soldiers there are, it just matters the name of the soldiers and horses!
Four thousand five hundred soldiers, no more, no less.
But there were not only 4,500 people following Liu Zhang, and the entire military formation was very strange.
There are 1,500 people in the front guarding the generals with Liu Zhang as the center, and 3,000 people in the rear, transporting at least 3,000 carts!
Every car was covered with cloth, making it impossible to see what was inside.
Xun Yu was walking at the front, but felt confused in his heart.
What are these carts carrying?
Several times Xun Yu wanted to come closer to find out what was going on, but Liu Zhang kept pulling him away and there was no chance.
Originally there were only 4,500 people, but so many vehicles appeared out of thin air. How could we feel at ease?
Fortunately, the marching speed was not very fast, and Xun Yu also frequently tested Liu Zhang.
"King Han, these cars...are too troublesome, aren't they?"
"With so many vehicles, I wonder what's inside?"
Liu Zhang smiled.
"Wen Ruo, are you curious?"
Xun Yu nodded extremely honestly.
Since this is not a long-term confrontation, the trapped camp only needs to carry ten days' worth of dry food.
But these vehicles can definitely accommodate several months of food and grass expenses!
How could Xun Yu not be curious.
"To be fair to the King of Han, I am really curious."
"Hahaha! Don't be curious, Wen Ruo, just look at the soldiers around you."
Xun Yu looked around and saw nothing wrong.
The soldiers are all wearing armor and holding sharp weapons. Is there anything different about them?
"King Han, I forgive my ignorance for not understanding what it means."
"Haha, it's okay! I'm here to help you figure it out!"
Liu Zhang pointed to the soldiers beside him.
"Wen Ruo can take a closer look at the armor on the soldiers."
Xun Yu looked around again, but his eyes were red and he couldn't see anything.
"King Han, I still can't see through this."
"Hahaha!"
Liu Zhang laughed a few times, but it was just cheerful and had no other meaning.
"Wen Ruo didn't know anything, but everyone in the trapped camp was wearing heavy armor and was invulnerable. That's how he became famous!"
"This type of heavy armor is too heavy and cannot be worn on ordinary journeys. Otherwise, the soldiers' physical strength will be exhausted before they can walk for long."
"So when they are on the road, the soldiers trapped in the camp will wear light armor and use carts to pull heavy armor."
Xun Yu nodded with some understanding.
"I see, but why can't I see the difference between light armor and heavy armor?"
Liu Zhang smiled proudly.
"That's because of the powerful craftsmanship of the craftsmen under Gu's command."
After saying that, he waved to the soldiers.
"come here."
"King of Han!"
The soldiers trapped in the camp trotted all the way to Liu Zhang.
"Raise your hand and let Master Xun see your armor."
"As you command!"
Xun Yu looked along the soldier's arm and was shocked at the sight.
Indeed, as Liu Zhang said, the armor is extremely thin!
Because the link is so tight, it's impossible to tell whether it's real or not.
"This kind of craftsmanship is really amazing!"
"Hahaha! Back off."
Liu Zhang waved his hand gently, and the soldiers withdrew.
"Wen Ruo, without these levels of craftsmanship, how can I be invincible!"
"The King of Han is mighty!"
Xun Yu reluctantly praised him and asked again,
"Why doesn't the King of Han let the soldiers wear armor and put them on when they get to the place?"
"How can that be done!"
Liu Zhang shook his head repeatedly.
"If there was a sudden attack, wouldn't Gu's army be captured without mercy?"
"Wen Ruo, don't underestimate these light armors. They are many times stronger than Cao Cao's iron armor!"
"Old minister is confused..."
Xun Yu quickly apologized and looked back.
No matter how I looked at it, I felt something was wrong, and I was frightened.
The scale of these carriages is so huge!
"King Han, even if you have 4,500 sets of heavy armor, you won't be able to use so many vehicles, right?"
"Is this more?"
Liu Zhang asked a question first, and then murmured,
"If Wen Ruo doesn't know something, he can stand alone in the camp and resist the cavalry attack on the plains!"
"Does Wen Ruo think that he is using his body?"
Xun Yu was so frightened that his eyes twitched.
The infantry on the plain resisted the cavalry attack, which is an anecdote for the ages!
"How to resist?"
"Of course I use heavy armor, heavy shield, and special weapons!"
Liu Zhang pointed behind him.
"What Wen Ruo saw is actually not the full set of equipment for the trapped camp."
"Heavy armor is only one of the keys to invincibility! The best weapons against cavalry are heavy shields and heavy spears!"
"The heavy shield that can withstand the charge of the cavalry, combined with the heavy spear that can pierce all cavalry, makes the cavalry can only stand back!"
"This is the key to the invincibility of the isolated camp!"
Xun Yu's eyes flashed with horror.
In the past, I always felt that the strength of the trapped camp was exaggerated, but now I know who is the real frog in the well.
Wherever he is strong, Liu Zhang will tell you with facts, and there is no way to refute.
Even if Xun Yu racked his brains, he could not imagine how to defeat this army.
Perhaps, encircling but not suppressing is the only way.
"King Han, I am very curious about Tiedun's style. Can you...?"
As he spoke, Xun Yu kept winking behind him.
The meaning is obvious, I want to find out.
"Uh... This... Hahaha... Haha..."
"No rush...no rush..."
Liu Zhang kept hitting and refusing, which made Xun Yu even more suspicious.
If there was no ulterior secret, why did Liu Zhang stop it?
You can let him go to the back and have a good look.
This is secretive, hesitant, and so unnatural, there is obviously something wrong!
"King of Han, can we really not let this old minister see it?"
Liu Zhang smiled softly, neither refusing nor agreeing.
"If Wen Ruo doesn't have to worry, we'll see you soon!"
"When we arrive at the Hemiao Valley, the soldiers trapped in the camp will change their armor. Wen Ruo can take a look at it at will!"
"this..."
Xun Yu's eyes narrowed, full of suspicion.
However, the argument did not continue.
"That's it...just follow the King of Han."
"haha okay!"
Xun Yu looked at the sky, which was already on the verge of darkness, and spoke directly.
"King Han, it's getting late, why don't you just rest here?"
