"Everyone go down and get ready! Cheng Yu helped me dispatch two thousand urban management soldiers!" Liu Wei said to Cheng Yu, the current urban management officer who was kneeling beside him.
"Yes, young master!" Cheng Yu nodded heavily. They also knew that it was useless to try to dissuade Liu Mang. Rather than blindly obstructing them, it is better to select elite soldiers and let Liu Mang take them there.
"Huang Xu, help me pick out people who are good at archery, not many, five hundred is enough!" What Liu Mang needs is someone who can operate the bed crossbow. The damage caused by arrows is always much stronger than that of ordinary soldiers.
"Understood my lord!" Huang Xu also nodded, his Huang family is from a family of bows and arrows, and there are many people who are good at shooting in the personal guard camp led by Huang Xu.
"Xu Sheng, Wang Wei, Hao Shao, after I leave, you all have to obey the military adviser! Seeing the military adviser is like seeing me! You have to help me defend Gwangju!" Liu Mang went out as a bait, he didn't want to go out by himself Yes, Xu Sheng and the others chased him out again. Gwangju is equally important to Liu Mang.
"The last general takes orders!" The three generals clasped their fists together, but the military advisor Liu Ye stopped them.
"My lord, I'm afraid Ziyang won't be able to complete the task of staying in Gwangju?!" Liu Ye directly smiled and refused to accept the task given to him by Liu Mang.
"What? Ziyang, you also want to stop me?!" Liu Mang frowned. He didn't believe that Liu Ye couldn't see it. If he didn't go, the effect would be greatly reduced. Once the expected effect is not achieved, then Shouchun is in danger.
"My lord. I didn't want to stop you!" Liu Ye shook his head. Liu Ye is the one who came up with this plan. How could he stop Liu Mang? Even if Liu Mang didn't directly propose to go to the battlefield in person, but let his generals go, Liu Ye would remind Liu Mang to let Liu Mang go to the battlefield in person, how could he stop Liu Mang Woolen cloth.
"What do you mean, Zi Yang?!" Liu Mang looked at Liu Ye very suspiciously, besides Liu Mang, Liu Ye had the highest rank in the army, otherwise he would divide his troops in Yuzhou. Liu Mang would not let Liu Ye command an army alone.
"My lord, you must lead the team ahead, so as to attract the attention of the Xiliang iron cavalry, but leave the bed crossbow to me!" Liu Ye said to Liu Mang very indifferently.
Rear bed crossbow? No, Liu Mang just wanted to refuse, because although the bed crossbow troops are in the rear, don't forget that once the front is broken through, the bed crossbow soldiers behind will be exposed to the enemy's charge. It's even more dangerous, and Liu Ye is a scribe, once the Xiliang cavalry rushed over. Even Liu Mang couldn't save him.
"My lord, don't refuse in a hurry. When will the bed crossbow be launched, and if it is fired, someone needs to be in control. The most important thing is, the lord's bed crossbow is so huge, how can you hide it?" Liu Ye turned to Liu Mang To state the pros and cons, this strategy was proposed by him, Liu Ye, and Liu Ye would personally participate in it. After all, putting the lord in a dangerous situation should not be something that a courtier should do, so Liu Ye must be with Liu Mang, if it succeeds, everyone will be happy, but if it fails? Hehe, after this failure, there is no need to think about it anymore, just fight to the death with Liu Wei!
"Okay, since you have said that, Zi Yang! If I don't let you go, it will be my Liu Mang's fault!" Liu Mang also knows Liu Ye's sincerity. Indeed, Liu Mang needs a reliable person to help him. Because the distance between the bed crossbow and the front part is at least 100 steps, Liu Mang wants to preside over the battle at the front line, so it is impossible to use it with one mind. He can only let Huang Zhong replace it. If Huang Zhong leaves Liu Mang's side, then Liu Mang's life safety will not be guaranteed.
"So, Xu Sheng and Wang Wei, all of you should listen to Hao Shao's defense in this city!" Liu Mang said directly to Xu Sheng and Wang Wei.
"Ah?!" The three people who were mentioned were all taken aback. Wang Wei was fine, because Wang Wei was only the deputy general of the black chess army, and it would not be his turn no matter what, but Xu Sheng was a little confused, because He is the chief general of the black chess army. He is a general. Although he is only a miscellaneous brand, he is bigger than Hao Shao, the captain. It stands to reason that Xu Sheng should be in charge of the overall situation. Hao Shao is also a little surprised. Although he joined Lu Bujun longer than Xu Sheng, Xu Sheng is Liu Mang's confidant, and Hao Shao's real service under Liu Mang's command is only a few months. Xu Sheng's.
"My lord, thank you for your promotion, but Shao still thinks that General Xu Sheng is more suitable than Shao to be the lord general in charge of Gwangju!" Hao Shao clasped his fists at Liu Mang, he didn't expect Liu Mang to let him take charge of Gwangju. After listening to Hao Shao's words, Xu Sheng felt more comfortable now. You Hao Shao is acquainted.
"Botong, don't be humble. If I charge forward, I will definitely use Xu Sheng as the vanguard, because with Xu Sheng's five thousand black chess army, our army will definitely win!" Liu Mang not only said to Hao Shao, but also Speaking to Xu Sheng, he also knew that if he didn't explain clearly, it would be difficult for Xu Sheng to balance in his heart. If Liu Ye was there, it would be fine for Xu Sheng to be under Liu Ye. After all, Liu Ye was a military adviser, but once Hao Shao was there His head was naturally unbalanced.
"Thank you, my lord, for the compliment!" Xu Sheng was also a little twitchy, after all, if he is not too thick-skinned to be praised by others, he will be more humble.
"But!" There was a turning point in Liu Mang's words, "Now you are defending the city. You are more familiar with this Guangzhou than Xu Sheng. You used to stop Liu Bei's 20,000 army with 2,000 garrison troops in this Guangzhou, ten times. There is nothing the enemy can do about such a small city that is safe to defend! I believe that with the help of five thousand black chess troops and three thousand city management troops, you have an advantage over Xu Sheng! So I choose to use you, Not Xu Sheng!"
Hao Shao took a deep look at Liu Mang, and suddenly knelt down on the ground, "Hao Shao will definitely live up to the young master's entrustment, Hao Shao is in the city, Hao Shao is dead, the city is dead!"
Xu Sheng also knelt down on the ground, "The last general, Xu Sheng, will definitely assist General Hao Shao, and will definitely not let the enemy take a step beyond Gwangju!"
…
The two thousand urban management soldiers were quickly organized by Cheng Yu, and each of them was full of fighting spirit. There are fifty bed crossbows behind him, but Liu Mang took out all his old books. These are all bed crossbows on the battleships of the Ganning Navy in Lujiang County. Each bed crossbow was simply mounted on a wheel. This is to make the bed crossbow move more conveniently, otherwise it would be difficult to pull a bed crossbow by manpower.
Standing in front of this army, Liu Mang is a kind of pride from the bottom of his heart, because the city management army in front of him was built by Liu Mang himself. From the moment the city management army became an army, he was deeply impressed. Liu Mang's brand, Liu Mang looked at the two thousand and five hundred people in front of him, this is the part of his expedition! (to be continued..)
ps: I want to die already! Again! Twenty-six thousand tomorrow! I wipe! Lazy people have to pay the price!
