Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 171: Taishan thief leader Chutian
In the sixth-level cavalry battalion in Xiacheng, one hundred high-level cavalry finally completed their training.
This team is the sixth-order cavalry exclusively for Hua Mulan—the Northern Wei Iron Eagle Scouts.
In order to build a 100-strong cavalry, Chutian invested nearly 10,000 taels of silver.
There are still a hundred Iron Eagle scouts recruited later that have not yet completed their training.
Each hundred Iron Eagle Scouts have one War Eagle.
The war eagle is a completely unfamiliar item to Chutian.
A war eagle has become the pet of the leader Hua Mulan.
This is a black war eagle with bright eyes. Its function is similar to that of a military carrier pigeon, and it also has certain reconnaissance capabilities.
Hua Mulan stroked her wings and seemed to be very fond of the war eagle she got.
With a war eagle to assist in reconnaissance, Mulan's cavalry has a wider field of vision. This allows her to better avoid enemy rangers when doing surprise attacks.
The existence of the War Eagle increases the value of Mulan's cavalry by at least 20%.
"Do you want to touch my lord?"
Hua Mulan asked without thinking.
Soon Chutian understood what she meant.
Warhawk's wings feel good, but Warhawk doesn't seem to like Chutian's touch very much, and only likes Hua Mulan and Iron Eagle scout cavalry.
Chutian checked the attributes of the war eagle.
[Name]: War Eagle
[Effect]: It can be used to transmit notes; it can understand the owner's simple commands and respond.
[Description]: It is said that this is an eagle that the iron eagle scout cavalry gets inspiration from the falconry culture and is specially trained to assist themselves in reconnaissance.
[Restrictions]: Only obey the orders of the commander Hua Mulan and the Iron Eagle scout cavalry.
Chu Tian was surprised when he saw the ability of the war eagle.
Iron Eagle Scouts are sixth-order cavalry soldiers, with low combat effectiveness, but their reconnaissance ability is magnified by possessing war eagles.
In the future, this cavalry is best used for reconnaissance and sneak attacks from behind.
Among all the high-ranking cavalry, Hua Mulan's 100 Iron Eagle Scouts were the first to be recruited, followed by Li Guang's 200 Western Han cavalry archers, Xue Rengui's 200 Tang Dynasty elite cavalry archers, and finally Hua Mulan's 200 Western Han cavalry archers. Mulan's second team of Iron Eagle Scouts.
Chutian will use this group of high-level cavalry in the crusade against Wu Sangui.
Wu Sangui probably knew that Chutian had Xiliu Camp and Shesheng Camp, but he didn't know that Chutian had recruited a group of high-level cavalry.
This is Chutian's trump card.
The iron eagle scouts are equipped with Tang knives, short spears, horn bows, saddles and other equipment forged in Shangbi Town.
Expensive horse lances are not suitable for lightly armed raiding iron eagle scouts, which are the weapons of heavy cavalry and generals.
The warhorse used by the Iron Eagle Scouts is a gold-level warhorse purchased from Yuyang, Youzhou, by a horse merchant entrusted by Xia Xia Liang, with medium speed and endurance. Medium is good, ordinary warhorses and silver-level warhorses are inferior.
After waiting for a few days, Xue Rengui and Li Guang's cavalry were also recruited. Except for Hua Mulan's second team of iron eagle scouts, Xiacheng had a total of 500 high-level cavalry and 230 heavy cavalry, which became two in Chu Tian's hands. Powerful trump card.
In Dong'an County, Sun Kang, one of the thieves of Mount Tai, received a letter from his younger brother Sun Guan and was hesitant.
Chutian self-proclaimed Kaiyang Ling and Qi Duwei, replacing Zang Ba, and asked him to send Taishan thieves from Dong'an County to Yangdu County to join forces with Zhou Yafu to attack Wu Sangui who was entrenched in Ju County.
Sun Kang wondered whether Chu Tian would take away his military power through this, and he was in a dilemma.
However, he had to obey this order, otherwise Chutian might be angry and turn to crusade against him.
In the end, Sun Kang decided to send troops.
Yin Li of Dongguan County and Wu Dun of Qiu County, the two Taishan thieves responded exactly like Sun Kang, responding to Chutian's call like walking on thin ice. Especially Wu Dun, who lost 15,000 troops to 3,000 men led by Xia Xia Liang last time. He was as frightened of Xiacheng as a tiger, so he immediately counted his troops and gathered them in Yangdu County.
The three Taishan thieves own territory in three counties, and Chutian has always coveted their territory. If the territories of Sun Kang, Yin Li, and Wu Dun were annexed, Chutian's territory could expand from two counties to five counties.
Dong'an County, Dongguan County, Jiqiu County are smaller than Kaiyang County, and a county still has a population of 300,000 to 400,000.
After annexing the Taishan Bandit, Chutian is the lord with a population of 2 million.
The three Taishan thieves each sent 10,000 people, a total of 30,000 people, to march in a mighty march towards Yangdu County.
Zang Ba and Sun Guan returned to Chutian. They had successfully persuaded the three Taishan thieves to send troops to respond to Chutian's military action against Wu Sangui.
"You have done a good job, and this will be included in your credit. The two of you, go with me."
Chutian re-checked the loyalty of Zang Ba and Sun Guan. Their loyalty has reached 80, and there is basically no possibility of mutiny.
Unless Chutian loses to Wu Sangui, their loyalty will decline.
The defeat of the lord is a very serious matter, and his own prestige will be greatly affected, and the subject is prone to have two hearts.
"Yes!"
Zang Ba and Sun Guan were finally regarded as his official subordinates by Chu Tian, and this time he arranged for them to go on an expedition and dispatched them as military generals.
"This is the list of expeditions, please take a look at the lord."
Fang Xuanling presented Chutian the list of the crusade against Wu Sangui.
A total of four troops formed a coalition to attack Wu Sangui.
Zhou Yafu of Yangdu City, Xue Yuecheng, Taishan Bandit, and the main force of Xiacheng led by Chu Tian. About 50,000 soldiers and horses were assembled, of which 30,000 were the Taishan Army led by Yin Li, Sun Kang, and Wu Dun.
The Taishan thief lacks combat effectiveness and is not Wu Sangui's opponent, but it can confuse Wu Sangui and make Wu Sangui unable to judge where Chutian's main force is.
"Go to Yangdu City and meet Zhou Yafu."
Chutian gathered troops outside Xiacheng City, and hundreds of military flags in Xiacheng were hunting in the north wind. As the scale of Chutian's army expanded, the number of battle flags used naturally increased.
More than 8,000 soldiers and horses were assembled outside Xiacheng.
There are 100 Iron Eagle Scouts and 2,000 Light Cavalry in the Mulan Square.
Li Guang's phalanx consisted of 200 Western Han archers and 500 light cavalry.
Xue Rengui's phalanx has 200 Tang elite archers, 500 light cavalry, and 230 heavy cavalry.
The reason why Mulan was given more light cavalry was because Chutian needed Mulan to use the war eagle for a surprise attack.
Xu Sheng replaced Li Guang as Chutian's subordinate general and commanded Chutian's 2,000-strong Shesheng Battalion. Xu Sheng is both a water general and a bow general, so he can barely play the effect of the shooting sound battalion.
Chutian's own abilities and characteristics are not strong enough. If one day Chutian has a four-dimensional like Li Shimin, Chutian will definitely command the Shesheng Battalion to fight in person, and he does not need to find a historical military general to serve as his lieutenant.
Then came Zang Ba and Sun Guan, who commanded 3,000 infantry archers, of which Sun Guan led 500 as the vanguard.
The light infantry dispatched by Xiacheng was very small, even less than the number of cavalry, because the light infantry was concentrated in the hands of Zhou Yafu in Yangdu County. As long as they meet with Zhou Yafu, Chutian will have a large number of light infantry that can be used.
The 30,000 Taishan thieves are also mainly infantry archers, and they are not worried about the use of ordinary infantry archers.
The low-level infantry archers are always the cannon fodder troops, and the cavalry is the master. Unless they are heavy infantry, they are qualified to compete with the knight master.
"Hua Mulan and Li Guang, you two lead the cavalry to Hedong. Be careful."
Chu Tian specially recruited Hua Mulan and Li Guang to give instructions to them.
"The final commander will definitely live up to his mission!"
Hua Mulan and Li Guang agreed at the same time.
The two of them, with a total of 2,800 cavalry, crossed the Yi River and arrived at Jiu Town, Hedong, which was previously occupied by Zhou Yafu.
Speaking of which, the taciturn Zhou Yafu was the general who had captured the most towns under Chu Tian's command. After Chutian won a major battle, he basically left it to Zhou Yafu to deal with the aftermath, and completely pacified all the villages and towns.
Hua Mulan and Li Guang left the team, and Chu Tian took more than 5,000 people north to meet Zhou Yafu and Xue Yue.
The army directly controlled by Chutian is not much, but it is elite. The lineup of generals is probably the most luxurious in the Eastern Han region.
In Lingcheng, Juxian County, Wu Sangui learned that Chutian had summoned four armies to attack him, and immediately dispatched troops and horses to set up defenses along the Yi River.
As long as Chutian's troops and horses can't cross the river, Wu Sangui can guarantee that Chutian can't destroy him.
"Please, my lord, go with me to defend the enemy."
Wu Sangui was worried that Qi Xiaobai would stay in Lingcheng, so he kidnapped him to garrison the Yihe River and confronted Zhou Yafu on the other side of the river.
He could already see the flag of Xiacheng on the other side of the river. The battle flag of Xiacheng was very simple, with only the word "Xia" in small script, which made Wu Sangui feel terrified.
Every time he confronts Chutian, he will be defeated, and Wu Sangui already has a shadow in his heart.
On the other side of the river was Zhou Yafu's 8,000 people, of which 2,000 were from the Xiliu Camp. They also patrolled along the river to avoid being attacked by Wu Sangui.
Both are famous generals, and they carefully test each other.
Zhou Yafu is waiting for other troops to arrive.
The first to arrive were the three Tarzan pirates.
Thirty thousand Taishan thieves gathered in Yangdu County, and they met with Zhou Yafu, who served as Yangdu County Captain.
Zhou Yafu's army was very strict and everything was in order. Sun Kang, Yin Li, and Wu Dun came to Zhou Yafu's army and couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.
Zhou Yafu's style of governing the army is incompatible with the style of Taishan thieves. This is the gap between the regular army and the bandits.
"Please stop the three personal soldiers."
The guards in Zhou Yafu's barracks stopped dozens of personal soldiers carried by the three.
Sun Kang, Yin Li, and Wu Dun looked at each other, seeming to be confused whether they should step into Zhou Yafu's barracks. They were worried that Chutian deliberately used the banner of crusade against Wu Sangui, called them here, set up a feast of Hongmen, killed them together, and then seized their military power.
Their intelligence is not high, but they are not fools.
In the end, the three chose to believe in Zang Ba and Sun Guan, thinking that Chu Tian would not use such a method to kill the three. Among them, Sun Kang was more at ease, because his younger brother Sun Guan had already taken refuge in Chutian. If Chu Tian killed him for no reason, Sun Guan would definitely betray him.
The three walked into Zhou Yafu's barracks and saw two thousand elite soldiers of the Xiliu Battalion practicing.
In the cold winter, the 2,000 Xiliu Battalion soldiers were divided into two teams, one team practiced bows and crossbows, the other practiced halberds and shields. The troops were neat and morale high.
When the three Taishan thieves saw the real elite of Xiacheng, they couldn't help but shudder.
None of their 10,000 Taishan thieves are estimated to be no match for the 2,000 Xiliu Camp.
"The army that defeated me that day was only 3,000 recruits. If she had 3,000 such troops in her hand at that time, why would she use a strategy to cover her up, I would definitely lose."
When Wu Dun saw Xiliuying, he became more and more frightened.
Zhou Yafu was checking the map in the tent and saw the arrival of the three Taishan thieves, but said indifferently: "The three please lead your troops to be stationed by the river, and send out all your flags, stretching for dozens of miles, to confuse Wu Sangui. The food will be supplied by Yangdu County. I hope that during the war, your troops will not rob the civilians of Yangdu County, otherwise they will be dealt with according to military law. Do you understand?"
"Understand, understand."
The three Tarzan thieves quickly agreed.
According to Zhou Yafu's character, it's really not just a joke with them. Once Taishan thieves rob civilians, Zhou Yafu is likely to execute them all.
The military law is ruthless.
The 30,000 Tai bandits formed a camp by the river, and according to Zhou Yafu's instructions, they stretched for dozens of miles, and the flags and flags were hidden in the air.
Zhou Yafu's Xiliu Camp switched defenses with the Taishan thieves from time to time, and Wu Sangui, who was on the opposite side, was disturbed, and it was impossible to determine where Zhou Yafu's main force was.
So Wu Sangui followed suit, and ordered the Taishan thieves under him to line up for dozens of miles.
The Taishan thief and Zhou Yafu were waiting for the arrival of Chutian. During this period, Xueyue brought 4,000 people to support and joined forces with Zhou Yafu, and the momentum was even greater.
Finally, the main force of Chutian's Xiacheng arrived, and Zhou Yafu, Xue Yue, Sun Kang, Yin Li, and Wu Dun came out to greet them.
This is the first time that Sun Kang, Yin Li, Wu Dun, three Taishan thieves have seen Chutian~IndoMTL.com~ Their original leader Zang Ba has become Chutian's subordinate, which means that Chutian is already The new Tarzan leader.
In order to show the force of the Taishan thieves, Chutian ordered Xue Rengui to lead 200 Tang Dynasty archers and 230 heavy cavalry at the forefront of the army.
A tall horse, iron armored horse armor, and high momentum, Megatron Taishan thief!
As expected, Sun Kang, Yin Li, Wu Dun and other Taishan thieves were terrified when they saw these two elite cavalry.
If the Chinese army were attacked by such a cavalry, the 30,000-strong Taishan Bandit might collapse immediately.
The existence of high-level cavalry and heavy cavalry also showed Chutian's powerful financial resources to the Taishan thieves. Without huge financial resources, it is impossible to afford such a sophisticated cavalry!
The elite cavalry led by Xue Rengui gave the Taishan thieves a dismount, and Chutian's exclusive arm, the Shesheng Battalion, arrived, and everyone carried an excellent longbow on their backs, which was equally imposing and unstoppable.
In the eyes of the low-level arms, the soldiers of the Shooting Battalion are the sharpshooters.
After showing a little force to the Taishan thieves, Sun Kang, Yin Li, and Wu Dun took the initiative to ask to see Chu Tian, and they were very respectful.
The logic of the Taishan thief is very simple. Whoever has the bigger fist has the bigger right to speak.
They see Chutian as the new leader of the Taishan Bandit.
So after a bunch of titles such as the first lord of the Eastern Han region, Tian Khan, Kaiyangling (self-proclaimed), and Qiduwei (self-proclaimed), Chutian has another title of Taishan Bandit Leader.
Chu Tian is also very helpless. Except for Chang Xi, the Taishan thief who was beheaded by Wu Sangui, the other Taishan thieves seem to submit to him. The title of the leader of the Taishan thieves is worthy of the name.
