Chapter 45 Lost in the Battle of Hua Xiong
Chapter 45: Defeated Hua Xiong (Part 1) [Ask for Red]
Today, after Jia Rong returned to the camp, he immediately ordered Zhang Wei to call Xu Qiang and Li Fei. This is the first time for Jia Rong to talk to them since they were responsible for military discipline.
After Xu Qiang and Li Fei came to Jia Rong's tent, they seemed to be very formal and didn't know where to put their hands. Although Jia Rong was usually very casual with them, and Jia Rong was also very easy-going in daily life, they knew Jia Rong better, and they were still very afraid of Jia Rong, but they were afraid. The two of them still admire Jia Rong very much. Jia Rong gradually changed from a small leader of a village to the current general of the Xiliang Army. Both of them saw it.
Seeing the performance of the two, Jia Rong smiled and motioned them to sit next to them and said, "You two don't have to be formal. There is nothing to do with you today. Just chat casually. Come on, sit down."
Xu Qiang and Li Fei slowly came forward and sat on the chair in front of Jia Rong, but their buttocks were only stained with a little chair, quietly waiting for Jia Rong's follow-up.
Li Fei, who has been following Jia Rong since Lijia Village, is a good teenager. He fights bravely on the battlefield and trains hard at ordinary times. Moreover, he is also a leader in Jia Rong's army. Although he is not the kind of nepotism, he can rest assured that important positions are left to those who know him better.
Although Xu Qiang has been following him for a long time, he has never been the first to follow him, nor is he distrustful of Xu Qiang, but Jia Rong thinks that the two people can work hard with each other to find out the gaps and prevent problems before they happen.
Looking at the posture of the two people sitting on the chair, Jia Rong was not too reluctant. Even if he saw the leader, he could not be very casual. He coughed and said, "I have also received the appointment of you two. Do you have any comments?"
Xu Qiang and Li Fei hugged their fists and replied, "I will obey the general's orders!"
Jia Rong said, "I've told you all about it. Don't be so reserved. You two are also the earliest soldiers who followed me. Just say whatever you have. Don't always be a general in the future, just in private."
Xu Qiang knelt down and replied, "General, but if you have an order, you must do your best. Xu Qiang remember the kindness of the general."
Li Fei also knelt down and replied, "I swear to follow the general to the death!"
Jia Rong scratched his head and said, "What's the matter? I asked you to say what opinions. How can you be loyal?"
However, Jia Rong didn't mind. He was loyal to himself and couldn't buy anything.
Jia Rong stood up and helped them up and said, "So you two have no problem. In the future, you two must do your best in the army. You must not slack off at all. Military discipline has always been very important. I hope you two can cooperate with each other."
Li Fei and Xu Qiang replied in unison, "Yes."
"We must be fair and strict in the army, especially in terms of your military discipline. Soldiers should be treated equally regardless of their status and inferiority. Even if a general commits a crime, he will be punished like a soldier, understand?" Jia Rong asked in a low voice.
The two didn't understand why Jia Rong, who was still kind just now, suddenly changed his face and hurriedly hugged his fist and answered yes.
Only when soldiers feel fair and justice can soldiers have a certain sense of belonging, and soldiers are willing to fight with their lives on the battlefield.
Jia Rong felt that there were too many communication gaps between them. Before Li Fei and Xu Qiang came, they felt that they had a lot to say to them, but when they really came to him, they didn't know how to communicate with them. This may be the sadness of those who have been in power for a long time.
After this short conversation, Jia Rong also learned that there was no problem with their loyalty to him. The problem of General Ji was handed over to the two, and he was also very relieved.
After signaling the two to leave, Jia Rong thought about how to further train 800 soldiers. The training of the soldiers was enough. His efforts during this period were not in vain. The soldiers were willing to train hard, and the increase in combat effectiveness was inevitable.
At this time, Jia Rong thought of a problem, morale; morale, is a very illusory thing, but it really exists.
On the battlefield, the side with high morale can get a greater degree of combat effectiveness. The morale is the biggest weapon on the battlefield. If you get it, the probability of winning on the battlefield increases exponentially.
Why did King Wu of Zhou lead a small number of soldiers to defeat Shang Zhou's army? It's all the function of morale.
But how can we gain morale?
Jia Rong thought that if the soldiers were full of confidence in themselves in their usual training, they would definitely be able to have high morale on the battlefield. Jia Rong came up with a solution.
After getting out of the camp, Jia Rong came all the way to Hua Xiong's camp.
Hua Xiong is practicing martial arts hard. He waved a big knife. Hua Xiong riding on a war horse does have a fearful momentum, and his skillful knife skills also makes Jia Rong really envious.
After practicing swordsmanship, Hua Xiong noticed Jia Rong next to him and hurriedly got off his horse to Jia Rong's side, ready to bow and salute.
Jia Rong hurriedly pulled Hua Xiong up and said, "General Hua doesn't have to be like this. You and I are under Dong Gong's account. Why should we be so polite? What's more, last time Rong just won by chance. What Rong is best at is step-by-step. In terms of horse martial arts, Rong is not as good as the general in case."
Although Hua Xiong is stupid, he can also see one or two from Jia Rong's martial arts skills on the battlefield, but his original words have been said. How can he take it back? Moreover, although Jia Rong's martial arts skills are not as good as his own, he is better than himself in terms of marching strategy. Hua Xiong is very admiring people with strategy, so even if he salutes Jia Rong, Hua Xiong is also willing.
Hua Xiong insisted on saluteing Jia Rong, and then said, "What Hua said will not be taken back."
Seeing the earnest feelings between Hua Xiong's words, Jia Rong did not refuse. He helped Hua Xiong up and said, "General Hua doesn't have to be like this. It was just a military emergency that day, and he had no choice but to make this plan. General, don't mind."
Hua Xiong argued, "General Jia, you are the person that Hua Xiong really admires. Hua is willing to salute General Jia, and there is nothing forced or coercive."
Jia Rong was overjoyed and could get the recognition of Hua Xiong, a tiger general. His position in the Xiliang Army will be higher in the future, and the next training will be carried out more smoothly.
Jia Rong opened the topic and said, "General Hua, Rong came here to ask for something."
Hua Xiong waved his hand and said, "General Jia will say anything directly in the future. Hua Xiong must do his best and don't have to be so polite to Hua."
So Jia Rong told Hua Xiong what he thought and asked Hua Xiong to go to his army to participate in a training and fight against his trapped soldiers. Naturally, the weapons should be replaced with wooden ones, otherwise it would be bad for a bloody case.
Hua Xiong has also heard that Jia Rong has been busy training infantry recently. Hua Xiong disdained this. Hua Xiong's favorite is cavalry. Infantry is always vulnerable in Hua Xiong's eyes. As long as the cavalry charges, it ensures that the infantry will be immediately in chaos. The soldiers do not know the generals, and the cavalry is the king of the battlefield.
Although he thought so in his heart, Jia Rong proposed it, and Hua Xiong also agreed repeatedly, claiming that he would try his best to cooperate with Jia Rong.
In the afternoon of the same day, a guest came to the training ground of the captured soldiers, who was not a guest. All the soldiers knew him. Who knew Hua Xiliang Army was the first person in the Xiliang Army in Dong Zhuo's mouth.
However, while admiring Hua Xiong, they admire Jia Rong even more. The soldiers will not forget that Jia Rong defeated Hua Xiong, so that Hua Xiong is respectful every time he sees Jia Rong. As Jia Rong's subordinate, this is also their pride.
Jia Rong immediately asked Zhang Wei to gather all the soldiers who were training in front of the stage.
About a quarter of an hour later, all the soldiers had stood neatly and quietly next to the samurai, waiting for Jia Rong's order.
Hua Xiong nodded with satisfaction. If his soldiers would not be able to achieve such an effect in such a short time, although he did not pay much attention to the combat effectiveness of the infantry, he was very impressed by Jia Rong's method of military training. He was thinking about how to deceive Jia Rong's military training method after a while. .
Jia Rong took Hua Xiong to the front of all the soldiers and said, "Today, I have the honor to invite General Hua to come to our army. Everyone is welcome."
Hua Xiong was arrogant in front of other Xiliang troops and was very "polite" in front of Jia Rong, so he also bowed to all the soldiers.
After all the soldiers calmed down, Jia Rong went straight to the topic and said, "This time, General Hua came to challenge him on behalf of all the traps. Today, everyone must do their best to show the prestige of my trap camp."
As soon as the words fell, the soldiers lost their previous calmness and did not have time to answer Jia Rong. They all discussed this matter with each other. Even Li Shun, the leader of the camp, was stunned. Jia Rong did not talk about this matter to him before. Moreover, Hua Xiong was a famous Xiliang fierce general.
Jia Rong raised his hand to signal all the soldiers to be quiet and said, "Of course, this kind of battle is not a general battle, but a small combination of trapped soldiers and General Hua. The battle is divided into step-by-step battles and horse battles. Of course, all the trapped soldiers are step-by-step battles."
After that, Jia Rong made it clear the detailed rules. Hua Xiong was naturally alone. There were eight soldiers in the battle, that is, a small array, to fight. Hua Xiong was divided into step battle and horse battle.
The weapon is made of wood. If it is cut down, it will directly withdraw from the battle and all the soldiers will supervise it.
Jia Rong came to Li Shun, patted Li Shun on the shoulder and said, "Are you confident?"
Although Li Shun was worried, he still summoned up the courage to answer, "Yes."
Jia Rong said easily, "Don't be afraid. No matter how brave Hua Xiong is, he is just one person, and we have eight people in the trap. As long as we work together, it is absolutely not difficult to defeat him."
