"I want to tell you a piece of good news. Zhuge Liang and General Huang won the great victory in Yangzhou, annihilating the enemy's [-]-step cavalry and seizing a large number of new weapons. General Huang also said that he must continue to work hard and win more battles."

Huang Zhong's letter is really a timely rain.

Everyone who lacked confidence before gradually regained their confidence.

Lu Su said: "Our weapons are not as good as the enemy's. This is an indisputable fact. If we want to win the battle, we must at least be equipped with the same new weapons as theirs, so that we can fight fairly."

"I suggest that all the captured weapons be sent to Yanzhou, where the new army will be trained."

Lu Su's words were exactly what Xu Ding was thinking.

Xu Ding said with a smile: "Zijing, you've got to the bottom of my heart. I recruited everyone today to confirm this matter. Although our current army has more than [-] soldiers, there are not many who can really fight. The chances of winning against the Western Merchant Empire are not great. It is difficult to defend Jingzhou and Yangzhou, and it is impossible to completely wipe out the enemy. Therefore, we should have prepared early, assembled a new army, and equipped with the latest weapons. Wait until we When the enemy cannot be stopped, lead the new army to fight and give the enemy a head-on blow."

"but."

Xu Ding glanced at the generals: "Training the new army is an important task, who of you can take on this important task?"

"The last general is willing to go." Almost all the generals stood up.

Lu Su, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu also surrendered one after another.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to take on this important task." Guo Jia said.

"Feng Xiao, the army is away, I have something to discuss with you sooner or later, how can I let you go to Yanzhou." Xu Ding did not agree.

The battle in Jingnan is so urgent and dangerous.

Guo Jia is a military adviser and should follow the army.

Only with Guo Jia present can Xu Ding rest assured.

"Wenhe."

"exist."

Xu Ding said: "I want you to go back to Yanzhou and be responsible for forming and training the new army. The generals of the country, except those who have already gone to war, are up to you to choose. Are you willing to go?"

"I'm afraid I can't do well."

"You are too humble. I believe that your understanding of the new army is better than all of us. If you are not competent, who else can?" Xu Ding said.

"The minister takes orders." Jia Xu responded, "It's just that after the minister leaves, who will lead the first army?"

Xu Ding said: "You don't have to worry about it. Feng Xiao can do it."

Jia Xu's return to Yanzhou was decided in this way.

In order to implement the strategy of post-strike.

Allowed to make the following decisions.

First, except for a few of the weapons and equipment seized in the Jingnan battlefield, they should be sent back to Yanzhou and handed over to Jia Xu to enrich the new army.

Second, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Qingzhou, Hebei and other places immediately recruited young and strong warriors to listen to them in Yanzhou.There is no limit to the number of people, the more the better.

Third, resolutely prevent the enemy from crossing the Yangtze River, and control the battlefields of the two countries in the Jiangdong and Jingnan areas.Do not bring war to the people of the Central Plains.

All civil and military officials agreed with these decisions.

The next day.

Jia Xu set off to go back.

Xu Ding also planned to start a new round of attack.

Fortunately, at this time, the [-] heavy cavalry from Jingzhou all came to southern Hunan.There are also five thousand Qingqi, who are the white horse followers of Gongsun Zan.

Xu Ding has more troops, and he is no longer as worried as before.

Turn on the satellite monitoring system to survey the situation in the east.

The enemy lost 137 troops, and Darayu, the commander of the [-]th Army in the Eastern Theater Command, is still in prison in southern Hunan.Certainly will not let it go.

Once a new round of attack is launched, the enemy's strength will definitely be stronger.

Monitored by satellite.

No trace of the enemy was found.

Allowed to recall system monitoring.

"Feng Xiao, what do you think of the cavalry of the Western Shang Empire? So far, we have not fought against their cavalry. I have no idea. We have always taken it for granted that our cavalry is invincible. He is best at field combat and melee combat. If the enemy's cavalry has the same fighting power as ours, have you thought about what will happen?" Xu Ding worried.

"Your Majesty is worrying too much. Our cavalry are all warriors. They have experienced hundreds of battles and are invincible. I don't believe that the cavalry of the Western Shang Empire can surpass us. What's more, they have no armor and suffered heavy casualties in battle. Fighting us for a long time, Their attrition is not less than ours. I am confident that we can still gain an advantage in field battles." Guo Jia said.

"hope so."

Xu Ding was not as optimistic as Guo Jia.

According to Darayu's account, the Western Shang Empire is not the strongest in the Wuyuan world.They still have to face the oppression of several great powers.

In other words, the armies of the Western Shang Empire were also fighting all year round.

Their ability to fight in the field seems to be very strong.

Chapter 838 The Battle of Guangling

Rested in southern Shonan for three days.

Xu Ding ordered the army stationed in Jingzhou to allocate 1 people to station in southern Hunan.

Xu Ding led the first group army and continued to rush towards Jiangdong.

Simultaneously.

In the east of Yangzhou.

Guangling area.

The ambush commanded by Zhuge Liang officially started.

The scale of this ambush was bigger than the battle of Niu Duo.

Before that, Zhuge Liang had ambushed the enemy once on the way.The enemy also guessed that there would be an ambush in Guangling, because the army in Hefei was reduced.

Even so, they still want to attack Guangling.

The reason is nothing but the one hundred thousand shi army rations.
