Chapter 632 Rewards
After a long while, Huangfu Chaobo said, "Yes, a general must know both himself and the enemy before he can win every battle. What you just said proves that you are not like Zhao Kuo, but that alone is not enough. Today is the fifth day of April. I will give you three days to prepare. After three days, you will be the main general and lead the troops to capture the Xi'anyang County under Jiuyuan. From this general down, all personnel and troops can be mobilized. If you need intelligence support, you can ask Shi A for it."
After listening to Huangfu Chaobo's words, Meng Gang was first refreshed, and then felt a heavy pressure on his shoulders. You know, what kind of status can his tens of thousands of people get in Huangfu Chaobo's heart depends on this gamble. Not only him, but the two old men Meng Ping and Meng Yi and the other five people all felt the pressure coming at them all at once. Without thinking too much, Meng Ping took a few steps forward and bowed to Huangfu Chaobo, saying, "I will obey your order and will not let you down. However, I would like to borrow the general's lobby."
After hearing this, Huangfu Chaobo knew that Meng Gang wanted to prepare for war under his nose, so he nodded and said, "I have already said that from this general onwards, all personnel and materials will be at your disposal."
After getting Huangfu Chaobo's permission, Meng Gang did not say much, and immediately asked Shi A for a map of Jiuyuan and its surroundings, and then gathered around the map with everyone to listen carefully to Shi A's explanation of the situation of Xi'anyang and the surrounding cities and tribes. Then he learned about the situation of the troops led by Huangfu Chaobo to the north this time, and then asked people to coordinate and arrange the relocation of the tribesmen as soon as possible, as well as the assembly of the tribal troops and pre-war preparations.
Watching him arrange things in an orderly manner, everything seemed so well organized, and the rest of the people also carried out his military orders meticulously. Huangfu Chaobo could see that if he hadn't led them into the world, he should have been the next patriarch.
After arranging everything, Meng Gang asked Shi A to pay close attention to the situation in Xi'an Yangcheng. Not only that, Hao Jian's 1,000 cavalrymen were also scattered by him, used as scouts, and the situation of the tribes within a hundred miles around was investigated and reported back one by one.
Then Meng Gang came to report, but was blocked by Huangfu Chaobo's words, you go and do your own thing, if it's really inappropriate, we will stop you, but then your command rights will be taken away. After that, Huangfu Chaobo went to the side and became a spectator with Pang Tong, while Meng Ping returned to the front of the map and repeatedly pondered the war strategy.
Three days passed in a flash. With Huangfu Chaobo's order, everyone cooperated with Meng Gang's arrangement. As for the descendants of the Qin people, they worked hard. In three days, all the personnel and materials were ready. Of course, Huangfu Chaobo did not do nothing. His second special force, the Iron Eagle Warriors, had been fully replenished. Like the Yuanrong Crossbowmen, it now has a full 1,500 people. As for the selection of the deputy general, Huangfu Chaobo was ready to leave it to Chen Jing after his job transfer.
Considering the safety of tens of thousands of people on the island, after asking Huangfu Chaobo for instructions, Meng Gang decided to leave 1,500 Iron Eagle Warriors for defense. In fact, they only needed to guard the entrance. As for the generals who stayed behind, Meng Yi, who was more inclined to internal affairs, was selected. All the rest of the troops were dispatched. Because of Huangfu Chaobo's more than 7,000 horses and the more than 2,000 war horses on the island, nearly 10,000 horses carrying nearly 6,000 soldiers, led by Shi A's Shadow Guard, headed straight for Xi'an Yangcheng, dozens of miles away.
Although the scattered tribes in the north had taken precautions after Guangmu County was reoccupied by the Han army, the Zahu tribe occupying Xi'anyang had not reacted to the sudden appearance of the 6,000-strong army, and was blocked in the city by the army led by Meng Gang.
After nearly half an hour of fierce fighting, facing the rain of arrows from more than 2,000 crossbowmen, the Zahu cavalry was quickly defeated, the tribal leader was killed, and then more than 5,000 remnants and tribal people were captured. After the army occupied the county, Meng Gang ordered more than 4,000 infantry to quickly control the city, and ordered two cavalry to advance more than 20 miles in the east and west directions respectively.
Unlike Guangmu, Xi'anyang is located between the Ula Mountains and the river. It is backed by the Ula Mountains to the north and the Yellow River to the south. These two directions do not need to be considered, so only the situation on the east and west sides needs to be paid attention to.
Meng Gang has learned about the war situation in Guangmu City from Shi A in detail, so he knows that Xi'anyang City will definitely usher in a counterattack by the Zahu tribe in the near future. So after occupying the county, Meng Gang immediately led the infantry to drive the captives to repair the county's defense. At the same time, after the county was completely controlled, Meng Gang immediately sent someone to invite Huangfu Chaobo into the county.
Under the escort of a group of personal guards, Huangfu Chaobo quickly entered the county government of Xi'anyang, found the county's management jade, opened it, and filled in Jia Jing's name on the name of the county magistrate. Soon, a system message sounded in the game: "Congratulations to the player Xiaojing, occupying Xi'anyang City, Jiuyuan County, Bingzhou, and becoming the second player to recover the Han Dynasty's former territory. The player is specially rewarded."
And this system message is like the knight occupying Guangmu County, and it is also broadcast three times in the whole game.
Huangfu Chaobo didn't care about these, just stared at Jia Jing and said: "How is it? Xiaojing? What's the reward? Come and see it quickly?"
When Jia Jing heard this, he immediately took out his reward and handed it to Huangfu Chaobo. Huangfu Chaobo took a look: one upgrade blueprint for a medium town, a large town, and a small town, one special building upgrade blueprint {unspecified building}, one Nine Revolution Rebirth Pill, and a level 40 Tang Dynasty horizontal sword production blueprint. The harvest is still good. Although he now has a lot of these territory upgrade blueprints, he doesn't know where to use them, and there are also a lot of Nine Revolution Rebirth Pills. But the special building upgrade blueprint and the level 40 Tang sword production blueprint are both very good things. Compared with the armor of the knight, the market for knives is actually larger.
"Tang Dynasty horizontal sword production blueprint:
Production requirements: advanced blacksmith, advanced weapon workshop, fine iron.
Attributes: attack +5, durability 500."
The horizontal sword is generally about 70 to 80 cm long, the blade length is between 50 and 60 cm, the thickness is about 6 to 8 mm, and the width is also smaller than the actual combat Han sword, generally between 3 cm and 4 cm. The horizontal sword of about one meter is called a large horizontal sword or a Tang sword. The handle of Tang horizontal sword is wider at both ends and slightly thinner in the middle, which is convenient for one-handed grip. The guard is simple in style, generally smaller than the ring head of Han sword, and the ring head mostly has complex hollow patterns and various decorations. It is known that there are few styles of ring heads, which are no longer decorated with Han swords, and the details are deeply influenced by the West Asian Caucasus style. Compared with Han swords, the guard of Tang horizontal sword is more practical, mostly made of iron, and has oval and papaya shapes.
