Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 40 Young Water Thief
Seeing the new army that had begun to bear fruit, Bai Tu felt heroic and even felt like he was expecting Yuan Shu to attack!

Only by giving Yuan Shu a hard lesson first, building up his momentum and showing off his majesty, can Bai Tu be able to take action and attack Jiangdong...

Only by first establishing a solid base of its own, with sufficient manpower, material resources, and resources, can Baitu be able to pursue technology with peace of mind, otherwise it will not work if he wants the common people to eat piggyback pork!
There are four thousand new troops and one thousand wolf cavalry, including more than 600 real people. Ji Zao's soldiers must be commanded by grassroots officers, otherwise they will be in chaos and disorder.

There were more than 600 officers at all levels, one-third of whom were from Bingzhou and crossed the river with Lu Bu, and the other two-thirds were recruited in Qu Asan County.

In addition to improving the strength of Ji Zao's soldiers, military training also teaches these grassroots corps commanders and commanders how to command soldiers, how to understand superior officers' signals, how to understand war drums, and how to rehearse military formations...

Relying on Ji alone to make soldiers?At most, after experiencing hundreds of battles, he can temporarily replace the commander or commander.

A true elite soldier who can fight for hundreds of times can be replaced by Du Bo when hundreds of soldiers are killed. When Du Bo is dead, Shi Chang is on top. When Shi Zhang dies, the commander of the team is on top. It can also be used when the commander of the team dies. Command his troops, and even if the leader dies, Du Bo will temporarily take command... This way, they will not be easily scattered and defeated.

The recruits in Qu Asan County are far from reaching this level. It is the limit that allows them to understand the instructions when they go to the battlefield and not panic. And this is thanks to the "Danyang Elite Soldiers" they brought with them. , it has its own stability, is not easy to collapse, and is easy to control.

However, some of the elite grassroots generals from Bingzhou were separated to fill the backbone, and they were already able to see people.

On the first day of the new year, Bai Tu attended the memorial ceremony in Quacheng in the morning, and came to the military camp in the afternoon. First, he saw the results of Chen Gong's training. The four thousand recruits... were already looking good!
"We're just waiting for Yuan Shu to attack." Bai Tu sighed on the high platform.

"Gongtai's training is good, but the main thing is that your thinking is good! With the Qu'a spearmen and Bingzhou wolf cavalry, even if Yuan Shu recruits [-] troops, they can still fight head-on!" Lu Bu said at the side.

The weaknesses of the Macedonian infantry would be discovered within a few times, and Bai Tu didn't want to train on a large scale, so he didn't give him a big name, just "Qu'a".

"The main reason is Gongtai's flexibility, and... without the bravery of his foster father, Gongtai would not dare to use this kind of battle formation." Bai Tu said.

"Hard disk, you are still so honest!" Lu Bu said proudly, then he seemed to remember something, and finally said: "By the way, how is Lingqi doing with you?"

"Everything is fine, foster father rest assured." Bai Tu said.

That's right, I, Bai Tu, naturally have the same heart as my adoptive father!
In fact, Bai Tu had already told Lu Bu on the night he discovered Lu Lingqi. Just because of their friendship, Bai Tu calmed down Lu Bu's anger...

At the same time, someone had already sent a letter back to Xiaopei to report to Diao Chan that she was safe.

"Why should I not worry about you being here? She must have asked you to come and take a look. Am I worried?" Lu Bu said disdainfully.

"Well...she asked me to take a look because she was afraid that my adoptive father would be anxious." Bai Tu said embarrassedly.

"Hey, you kid is so kind!" Lu Bu sighed.

At this moment, a wolf-riding scout suddenly returned and reported: "General, lord, there are several strong men outside the camp. They say they are under the command of General Gan Ning. There is news."

Lu Bu had previously ordered the generals in the army to call Bai Tu their lord. Now only Chen Gong and other people close to the faction call Lu Bu "lord".

"Please come." Bai Tu said quickly.

Only three big men were seen, dusty and tired, coming to the high platform for commanding troops. The first one was very young, he looked to be about fourteen or fifteen years old.

However, in his childishness, he has an air of courage and courage. He looks like a very independent young man. What is striking is that his eyebrows are very thick, like two big knives, and like Song Xian, both have bald heads. .

"Ding Feng, the captain of General Gan, pays homage to the lord!" The young general bowed politely, showing no sign of stage fright.

Gan Ning himself came to surrender with his men, and also brought their stolen goods, and was responsible for persuading the Yangtze River water thieves to surrender. Therefore, before leaving, Bai Tu awarded him the post of general.

This young general seems to be young, but he was valued by Gan Ning and was awarded the title of "College Lieutenant"... Although there is no naval force in Baitu now, and these official positions are empty, it also shows that his ability is highly valued by Gan Ning. approved.

And for Bai Tu, the name "Ding Feng" already explained the problem - General Soochow, like Gan Ning, ranked among Jiang's most powerful ministers.

Moreover, when Ding Feng was young, he was not only known for his courage in fighting and being the first to win in every battle, but he was also young when he joined the army and lived an extremely long life, more than 80 years old.

This makes him different from his old boss Gan Ning. Ding Feng not only had a prosperous official career, but also was senior enough in his later years. He was a pillar of Soochow, and eventually became the Great Sima of Soochow - equivalent to the Han Dynasty. Taiwei, the leader of the military.

Moreover, in the political environment of the late Eastern Wu Dynasty, when all kinds of demons and monsters appeared, Ding Feng also had considerable influence in the court.

"Quickly invite me, it seems that Xingba is not only strong in martial arts, but also has the ability to recognize people. There are warriors like you under his command!" Bai Tu, who was praised by Lu Bu as "honest and kind", naturally spoke sincerely.

As Bai Tu spoke, he patted Ding Feng on the shoulder. The current Ding Feng is still a vigorous young man, not the Zhuliang of the Eastern Wu Dynasty. He blushed and looked very excited when he was agitated by Bai Tu's few words.

"By the way, what good news did Xingba ask you to report back?" Bai Tu looked very reassured and knew it was good news without saying anything.

"Oh! My lord, General Gan asked me to give you a letter." Ding Feng finally reacted and took out the letter from his arms.

Bai Tu took the letter and read it silently, and found that what Gan Ning said in the letter was that he had gathered several groups of water thieves with Bai Tu's instructions, and some of them were ignorant, and were attacked by Gan Ning fiercely or at night. It's so bad...

After all, Gan Ning's Jinfan thieves were the number one "thieves" on the Yangtze River. Now that they have become "lackeys of the officers and soldiers", they are naturally particularly powerful.

It is expected that Gan Ning will return to Qu'a in one month!

At the same time as the good news was announced, it was also a subtle reminder to Bai Tu that among the water thieves who had been recruited, apart from those who were capable of serving as righteous soldiers in the army, there were also some who needed to be eliminated. Bai Tu had to make preparations in advance to find a good livelihood for them. Otherwise, Gan Ning's old face would have no place to show off.

Bai Tu has also thought about it. The workshop will definitely recruit a large number of people in the future, and even expand a large number of official workshops in the future. It can fully accommodate some good water thieves, and it is not even enough!
Those who can be brought back by Gan Ning are those whose temperament is not suitable for staying in the army. It is not ruled out that some have a thief temper and are worried about making mistakes, but at least there should be no problem with their loyalty. The real villains have long been feeding the bastards in the Yangtze River... …

"General Gan destroyed more than ten water villages in March. How were the injuries to the brothers?" Bai Tu asked with concern.

"My lord, brothers... General Gan has taken note of those who can find their families at a discount of [-]% to [-]%, and will provide compensation later," Ding Feng said.

"Okay, all the names must be written down. When we pacify Jiangdong in the future, we must build a large temple to protect the people. The names of these soldiers who sacrificed for the people of Jiangdong will be engraved in the future!" Bai Tu promised.

Hearing what Bai Tu said, Ding Feng also felt that the meaning of the battle had been heightened, and he was very moved and said: "My lord is benevolent and righteous! Feng... will also enter the Protector's Shrine in the future!"

Baitu: ...

Don't rely on your own longevity to set up a flag like this!
"Hahaha, man, life is harder than death. I hope you can all live and make contributions! Xingba said that you will stay in the army temporarily and don't have to go back to look for him. So... tomorrow you will join the new army and go to Gongtaiduo. Learn more." Bai Tu said.

"Here! Feng wants to live and make contributions to his lord!" Ding Feng said excitedly.
