It was snowing heavily at the Dragon Cavalry Camp.
Zhao Zilong, who had just received his rations and supplies, looked extremely handsome and mighty under his silver armor.
When he turned around and saw Xu Zhen returning, he hurriedly went up to him.
"Milord, the arrangements are complete. We can set off at any time.”
Xu Zhen nodded and sighed.""Alright, lead the army to the agreed location and set up an ambush. After confirming Liu Bei's forces, make your move.”
"Good!"
Zhao Yun immediately became serious. He knew that Xu Zhen had implemented the policy of benevolence in Xuzhou. Every time he conquered a city, he had to open the granary to release grain.
It was a blessing to the people.
Liu Xuande had a reputation for benevolence, but it didn't matter.
It would also become a huge granary. It would not be a problem to store a million dan of grain, which meant that hundreds of thousands of people, close to a million people, would not have to worry about food and clothing.
Wasn't this the God of Benevolence that he had always followed?
His eldest brother's words back then were indeed true.
"Zilong, remember, Liu Bei's second and third brothers are good at fighting, but they are easily emotional. Put them in the valley and mess up their formation first, then cut the battlefield to attack Liu Bei. The fiercer the fight, the harder it will be for Guan Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to concentrate.”
" I know." Zhao Yun nodded in high spirits. In the past few months, Xu Zhen had been practicing with him. It could be said that the officers of the Snowy Dragon Riders had long studied the terrain of the small road north of Xuzhou.
Even Dian Wei had memorized it thoroughly.
He was not interested in these military strategies at all, so he was also asked to explain many strategic objectives in detail.
Xu Zhen's army was different from those generals in the past.
At least, many of the soldiers in the Snow Dragon Cavalry felt that it was new. In the past, when generals used troops, they would pay attention to the common enemy and charge together.
However, Xu Zhen had assigned tasks to the soldiers led by each general. They only needed to do their own things. If there were no tasks, they could choose to wait for orders or return to the camp.
All the generals were in charge of their own troops.
In other words, he had divided a large camp into many small camps according to the ability of each person after the test.
They were divided into four battalions: Special Forces, Beheading, Horse Scouting, and Divine Spear.
Among them, the Sharpshooter was led by Zhao Yun, and there was also a type of weight-bearing physical training called " obstacle running."
With Zhao Zilong teaching them spear techniques, they became an extremely powerful team. Everyone in the Divine Spear Battalion was equipped with snow-white warhorses.
The current camp was extremely powerful.
The most important thing was that Xu Zhen had received forty craftsmen as a reward and was assigned to the camp.
From this, he secretly forged a kind of tool called the double-stirruped iron stirrups.
In the late Han Dynasty, stirrups were either made of leather and cloth or single stirrups. Double stirrups were not widely used yet.
This was enough to solve the biggest problem of cavalry since ancient times.
It meant that he couldn't use all his strength on horseback.
Even Xiang Yu had to clamp his legs tightly to steady himself on the warhorse.
However, it also reflected that he was so fierce even without the stirrups. If he did…the Overlord would probably really be inhuman.
In this era, stirrups were still used to mount horses and dismount horses.
Xu Zhen's design allowed Dian Wei and Zhao Yun to truly see the era of cavalry rule.
Moreover, there were also lances being designed.
It was said that it could be used to charge forward, and the cavalry would be like a galloping arrow.
It could break ten thousand troops!
Xu Zhen scanned the entire camp and thought of the 50 yuan he had received as a pass.
He took a deep breath and ordered Zhao Yun," Let's go!”
"Here!"
An earth-shaking roar was heard from the camp of the Snowy Dragon Knights.
One had to know that most of these people were chosen from the Qingzhou soldiers, and the Qingzhou soldiers were cunning and brave.
He had been through hundreds of battles and fought in all kinds of difficult situations.
Their hearts were already like wolves, and they would not easily submit.
Currently, in the entire Yanzhou, they only admired two people.
One was Cao Cao, because he had fought day and night and defeated the Qingzhou soldiers.
The second was Xu Zhen. Because of his policy of opening up wasteland, he let the whole family of Qingzhou soldiers eat well, wear silk and satin, and pay five baht a day.
In the time for an incense stick to burn, all the soldiers had moved out. Xu Zhen stayed in the main camp.
Following Cao Cao.
This was not the time to personally lead the troops out.
There was no other reason than that the soldiers and horses came from Cao Cao. Even if he used people without suspicion, he was not a clan relative general, so it was impossible for him not to worry.
Xu Zhen was only someone with a foreign surname. If he kidnapped these thousands of soldiers, Cao Cao would regret it and would chase after him.
Therefore, he could only feel regret this time.
Regretfully.
……
On the seventh day, the vanguard army had already entered the territory of Xu Prefecture. Cao Cao's army left very quickly.
Every time Cao Cao mobilized his troops, he would first arrange for a troop to attack the city and scout out the situation.
And the army would be able to break through like a hot knife through butter.
However, this time, Xu Prefecture seemed to be even weaker, and the soldiers stationed at Xiao Pei were even more useless.
Cao Ren and Cao Chun's vanguard troops were unstoppable, and they took down two cities and three passes in less than seven days.
It opened a path for the army behind them.
Then, Tao Qiancai led the 50,000 troops and 20,000 Elixir Yang Soldiers to slowly gather in Xiapi City. They did not dare to make a move.
He knew that Cao Cao was powerful and used his troops like a god. He was far from being his match.
Thus, they subconsciously did not dare to engage in close combat.
Now, Tao Qian could only wait for reinforcements…
If there were reinforcements, they might still have a chance to deal with them.
……
At the same time.
At this moment, in East County, Yanzhou, a person entered the home of Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu.
The black-robed and black-crowned man walked with large strides.
His face was serious.
It was Chen Gong.
When he entered the backyard, he saw Zhang Miao still deep in thought.
"Lord Meng Zhuo, haven't you thought it through? This is the best time. If you don't act now, you will be under Cao Cao's command for the rest of your life!”
Chen Gong suddenly spoke, scaring Zhang Miao so much that his eyes began to flicker.
"He handed over his family to me, but I want to seize Yanzhou. This is an unjust act…"
Zhang Miao shook his head bitterly.
"How can we be restricted by these things when we are in the midst of a great cause?”" You should know that Cao Mengde killed his father's family and friends back then. He even said that he would rather let the world down than let the world down. This person is so selfish." Chen Gong said disapprovingly.”
"When we arrived in Yanzhou, we killed Bian Rang, drove Mi Heng away, and neglected Kong Rong just to suppress the aristocrats. What will we get in the future?”
Zhang Miao's eyes grew darker and darker. A flame was about to rise in his heart.
"Sigh…"
He sighed and clenched his fists.
