Chapter 251: cavalry camp, trap camp

The night passed by in the commentary, and Xu An didn't know when he fell asleep.

When I woke up again, the sun had already climbed up to the club head, and it was about two minutes after the next day (about 9:30).

Hearing Xu An wake up, Xu Da, who had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time, quickly walked in from outside the courtyard with food and noodles.

“How long have I slept?”

Xu An took the face and wiped his face and asked.

Xu Da thought for a while and replied, "It takes a little more than three hours."

"Is Zhang Ji gone?"

Xu An asked outside the door that Zhang Ji was basically doing things like delivering food to him before.

Xu laughed and said, "I received the order from the Eagle Wolf Guard at the time of Mao today. Originally, that boy Zhang Ji wanted to say goodbye to his lord, but when he saw his lord sleeping, he didn't disturb him."

Xu An put down the face palette, and he found that he seemed a little sentimental recently, and he didn't know why.

Guan Gu and Huang San died outside Kuicheng.

The bandit Huang San, who was once tied to him and solemnly said that he wanted to survive, climbed up desperately after surrendering, and was promoted to the army's Sima, but eventually died outside Kuicheng City.

I don't know if he regretted it...

Although Xu An and Guan Gu were only a few short sides, Guan Gu really impressed Xu An. In the first battle in Chishiling, he issued a military order, charged at the forefront, and then he had to take the lead in every battle.

Xu An stopped his chaotic thoughts and asked, "Have the order to mobilize the Bingzhou cavalry has been issued?"

Xu Da quickly replied: "At the hour of Hai last night, a messenger had been sent to Yanmen and Dingxiang counties."

Xu An nodded. Since the transfer order has been issued, the work of building a camp must be done.

Bingzhou did not lack war horses too much. There were still many war horses in the local powerful families, and military horses were not very scarce. What was really scarce were military equipment, bows and crossbows, armor, arrows and other weapons.

Xu An planned to form a cavalry team of 4,000 people. The entire battalion consisted of about 3,000 Han cavalry and more than 1,000 cavalry from the Yellow Turban Army.

It turned out that Xu An could not control the proportion of the cavalry of the Han army, because the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army was still good at cavalry, basically all the battles of Fen River, Kuicheng, and the previous attack on the Southern Xiongnu were consumed a lot.

The 1,000 Yellow Turban cavalry that Xu An could find was still filled with scouts in various divisions.

"Four thousand people..."

Xu An gently knocked on the desk table, thinking about the military system of the new cavalry unit in his mind.

In fact, only Lu Bu can choose the candidate for the main general of the cavalry.

Although Xu Huang was brave and often led the cavalry to charge, his experience was definitely inferior to Lu Bu when it came to how to use cavalry.

Moreover, Xu Huang has been transferred back to Hedong by Xu An. Now the defense of the entire Hedong County has been handed over by Xu An to Xu Huang, Zhang Yan, He Man, Guo Tai and others are all controlled by Xu Huang.

During the Battle of Fancheng, Xu Huang led his army to repel Guan Yu, followed Guan Yu to chase him, and took the opportunity to break through the ten sieges of Guan Yu, completely lifting the siege of Fancheng. He was praised by Cao Cao for his strict military management and "having the style of Zhou Yafu".

In history, Xu Huang was not only a general, but also a general who could stand alone, and Xu An lacked such generals.

Although Xu Huang does not have so much experience in combat formations now, Xu Huang still shows that he is far superior to others.

The defense of Hedong County is as important as Bingzhou. Although the southern front repelled the attack of the Han army, only Zhang Yan is now, and Xu An is still a little worried.

"Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, Song Xian, Wei Xu..."

Xu An recited these familiar names, and these people all appeared in history as brave cavalry generals.

With Lu Bu as the chief officer and with these brave cavalry generals, perhaps the cavalry unit he formed would have a great reputation in the future like the "Bingzhou Tuqi", "Xiliang Iron Cavalry" and "Tiger and Leopard Cavalry" in history.

"Snap General, Xiaoqi..."

Xu An's eyes lit up slightly and he said with a smile.

"The title I gave to Lu Bu is General of the Cavalry. I intend to let Lu Bu be the chief official, so this one is called the Cavalry Camp."

"Kidnap Camp?"

Xu Da repeated it several times, and also smiled and agreed, "This name is pretty good."

"Then let's settle it first."

Xu An was in a good mood after setting the name, but it was not enough to just set the name. He also had to think about who to arrange for the generals to enter the cavalry camp.

There were eight generals who followed Lu Bu to surrender, namely Gao Shun, Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, Song Xian, Wei Xu, Hou Cheng, Hao Meng, and Cao Xing.

Four thousand cavalrymen can form eight soldiers and two deputy generals. Although the organization is sufficient, Xu An must not all choose the eight people who followed Lu Bu and surrendered.

Although Lu Bu is still loyal now and respects Xu An, and his family is now sent to the Changzi City in the hinterland of Shangdang County, Xu An still has certain precautions for him.

After pondering for a while, Xu An also made a decision, with Lu Bu as the head of the cavalry camp and Zhou Cang as the deputy.

The four generals Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, Hao Meng, and Cao Xing were organized into the cavalry camp, and the remaining deputy generals were asked to choose from these four.

The other three are temporarily organized as military waiters, and the other five are temporarily selected from the Yellow Turban cavalry.

"Song Xian, Wei Xu, Gao Shun..."

Wei Xu and Lu Bu have a marriage relationship. If you don’t put him and Lu Bu in the same unit, you can be considered as having more bargaining chips in your hands.

When he pronounced the name "Gao Shun", Xu An also remembered the army in history that was famous among the fans of the Three Kingdoms - the Clan Camp.

"The more than 700 soldiers were commanded, and the armor was crafted and neat. Every attack was broken, and the name was the 'Stealing Camp'."

Xu An remembered that when he attacked Lu Bu's troops, he failed to resolve the battle in a short time with the combat power of Huang Yan's envoy, and even made Gao Shun and the others persist until Lu Bu returns to defense.

However, the defeat of the remaining county soldiers of Shangjun basically did not take much time to defeat the Yellow Turban Army.

After the war, Xu An also asked about the training of Lu Bu's troops. Lu Bu told Xu Anyan truthfully that his troops were basically all under his command, Gao Shun was responsible for training.

In this way, Gao Shun should have learned the methods of fighting formations and military soldiers training very early, but he just didn't know where he learned it.

Now the Yellow Turban Army has occupied Hedong County, the hinterland of Bingzhou, and Shangdang County, and there are no shortage of craftsmen. Moreover, there are many iron ore that can be excavated under Xu An's rule.

After a while, Xu An made a decision and said to Xu Dayan, who was kneeling beside him: "Xu Da, summon Gao Shun to Jinyang Prefecture Office."

Xu An is preparing to form two armies, namely the Knight Camp and the Catch Camp at the same time.

Soldiers are more valuable than elites.
