Lord of the People of Online Games (Lord of the Gaming World)

In the sixth-level cavalry battalion in Xiacheng, one hundred high-level cavalry finally completed their training.

This one is the sixth-order cavalry exclusively for Hua Mulan—the Northern Wei Iron Eagle Scouts.

In order to build a hundred cavalry, Chutian invested nearly 10,000 taels of silver.

There are still a hundred Iron Eagle scouts who were recruited later and have not yet completed their training.

There is one War Eagle for every hundred Iron Eagle Scouts.

The war eagle is completely unfamiliar to Chutian.

A war eagle has become the pet of the main general 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 its wings and seemed to love the war eagle that she got.

There is a war eagle to assist in reconnaissance, and 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%.

"Master, do you want to touch it?"

Mulan asked thoughtlessly.

Soon Chutian understood what she meant.

War Eagle's wings feel good, but War Eagle 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 the eagle that the iron eagle scout cavalry got inspiration from the falconry culture and is specially trained to assist themselves in reconnaissance.

[Restrictions]: Only obey the orders of the master Hua Mulan and the Iron Eagle scout cavalry.

Chu Tian was surprised when he saw War Eagle's ability.

Iron Eagle Scouts are Tier 6 cavalry, their combat effectiveness is not strong, but their reconnaissance ability is magnified by having a war eagle.

In the future, this cavalry is best used for reconnaissance and sneak attack on the enemy from behind.

Among all the high-level 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 3rd The second team of Iron Eagle Scouts.

Chutian will use this group of high-level cavalry to fight against Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui may know that Chutian has Xiliu Camp and Shesheng Camp, but he does not know that Chutian has 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 the iron eagle scouts equipped for light raids, 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 in Youzhou by a horse merchant entrusted by Xia Xia Liang, with medium speed and stamina. 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, becoming two powerful trump cards in Chu Tian's hands. .

In Dong'an County, Sun Kang, one of the thieves of Mount Tai, received a letter from his brother Sun Guan and was hesitant.

Chutian appointed himself the Commander of Kaiyang and the Captain of Cavalry, replacing Zang Ba, and asked him to send the Taishan thieves from Dongan County to Yangdu County to join forces with Zhou Yafu to attack Wu Sangui who was entrenched in Ju County.

Sun Kang didn't know whether Chu Tian would use this to take away his military power, and he was in a dilemma.

But this order, he had to obey, otherwise Chutian might be angry because of it,

turn to attack 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, 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 the territory of 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, and Jiqiu County are smaller than Kaiyang County, with a population of 300,000 to 400,000 in one county.

After annexing the Taishan thieves, Chutian was a big 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, and 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 matter is included in your credit. The two of you, go with me on the expedition."

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.

"This is the list of expeditions, please take a look at the lord."

Fang Xuanling presented the list of the crusade against Wu Sangui to Chutian.

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.

Taishan thieves lack combat effectiveness and are not Wu Sangui's opponents, but they 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 has 200 Western Han archers and 500 light cavalry.

Xue Rengui's phalanx has 200 Datang elite archers, 500 light cavalry, and 230 heavy cavalry.

The reason why Mulan was given more light cavalry was because Chutian needed Hua 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 number of light infantry sent by Xiacheng was very small, even less than the number of cavalry, because the light infantry was concentrated in the hands of Zhou Yafu of Yangdu County. As long as they meet with Zhou Yafu, Chutian will have a large number of light infantry that can be used.

Thirty thousand 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, Li Guang, you two lead the cavalry to Hedong, be careful."

Chutian specially recruited Hua Mulan and Li Guang to give instructions to them.

"The last commander will definitely live up to his mission!"

Mulan and Li Guang agreed at the same time.

The two of them, with a total of 2,800 cavalrymen, 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 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 Chutian took more than 5,000 people north to join Zhou Yafu and Xue Yue.

The troops directly controlled by Chutian were not many, but they were elites, and the lineup of generals was 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 could not cross the river, Wu Sangui could guarantee that Chutian would not be able to 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 of them are famous generals, and they are carefully testing each other.

Zhou Yafu was waiting for other troops to arrive.

The first to arrive were the three Taishan thieves.

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 good 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, which 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 and seemed a little confused about 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 2,000 elite soldiers from 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 team 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.

It is estimated that none of their 10,000 Taishan thieves are the opponents of 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 and cover up directly, I would definitely lose."

Wu Dun became more and more frightened when he saw Xiliuying.

Zhou Yafu was checking the map in the tent, and when he saw the arrival of the three Taishan thieves, he just 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. As for food, we will It 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."

The three Taishan 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.

Military law is ruthless.

Thirty thousand Tai bandits set up camp by the river, and according to Zhou Yafu's instructions, they stretched for dozens of miles, with flags and flags obscured.

Zhou Yafu's Xiliu Camp switched with the Taishan thieves from time to time, and Wu Sangui on the opposite side was disturbed, and it was impossible to judge where Zhou Yafu's main force was.

So Wu Sangui followed suit, and ordered the Taishan thieves under his command to line up for dozens of miles. He hid himself in it with professional soldiers and competed with Zhou Yafu.

Taishan thief and Zhou Yafu were waiting for Chutian to arrive. During this period, Xueyue brought 4,000 people to support and joined forces with Zhou Yafu, and the momentum became 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 was the first time Sun Kang, Yin Li, and Wu Dun saw Chu Tian. Their original leader, Zang Ba, had become Chu Tian's subordinate, which meant that Chu Tian was the new leader of the Taishan thieves.

In order to show force to the Taishan thieves, Chutian ordered Xue Rengui to lead 200 Tang cavalry archers and 230 heavy cavalry at the forefront of the army.

High-headed horse, iron armored horse armor, high momentum, Megatron Taishan thief!

Sure enough, Sun Kang, Yin Li, Wu Dun and other Taishan thieves were terrified when they saw these two elite cavalry soldiers.

If the Central Army was 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 thief a dismount, and Chutian's exclusive arm, the Shesheng Battalion, arrived, and everyone carried an excellent longbow, which was equally imposing and unstoppable.

In the eyes of low-level arms, the soldiers of the Shooting Battalion are marksmen.

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 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 thieves.

Therefore, after a bunch of titles such as the first lord of the Eastern Han District, Tian Khan, Kaiyangling (self-proclaimed), and Qiduwei (self-proclaimed), Chutian has another title of Taishan Bandit Leader.

Chu Tian was also very helpless. Except for Chang Xi, the Taishan thief who was killed by Wu Sangui, the other Taishan thieves seemed to submit to him. The title of the leader of the Taishan thieves was worthy of the name.
