Chapter 204 Trap

"I have heard that the troops under General Zhu are powerful, but I didn't expect that they are so elite!" Not far behind the Fourth Army in Huai'an, Zhao Junyong was in a low voice and the commander of Xiongwu Li Xixi.

He followed Zhao Jun to Gaoyou with a group of people. After the alliance was over, he was left by the other party to assist his old subordinate Fu Youde. Although this arrangement was a bit aggrieved, after the team started, Li Xixi felt that Manager Zhao's arrangement was extremely correct. It was worth staying. If he didn't stay, he would never have the chance to know what the real elite looked like at such a close distance.

The former army commander Fu Youde did not respond, but just looked at the back of the Fourth Army with envy. It was not until Li Xixi took the handle of the whip and stabbed his heart protection glass unhappily that he reluctantly retracted his eyes and said with emotion, "Yes! After Fu arrived in Huai'an, he realized that there were people outside the people and there was heaven! No wonder General Manager Zhao kept General Manager Zhu and Huai'an Army all day long. If it were Fu, it would be difficult to forget them after he went back this time."

As the most popular general under Zhao Junyi, it would be impossible to say that he had no pride at all. However, the longer he fought side by side with the Huai'an army, the more proud Fu Youde was. In terms of personal martial arts, there was probably no other person in the entire Huai'an army except Hu Dahai. However, the newly formed five major armies in Huai'an were no less than the five thousand elite troops under his command.

When two armies fight, they cannot rely solely on the personal courage of the main general. Fighting like the one who seizes Gaoyou City can be another but not another. If it weren't for the morale of the defenders, "righteous soldiers" like Zhang Shicheng and Li Bosheng occupied the vast majority of the city's defensive forces, even if someone works hard to incite, Fu Youde would not have taken such a big risk. And while also siegeing the city, the Huai'an army fought steadily, pushing forward step by step, crushing the enemy's resistance step by step. As long as you fight step by step, victory will be natural!

As the saying goes, those who are good at fighting have no great achievements. Putting the hope of victory on the courage or conspiracy of the main general is far less stable than crushing the opponent with their strength. Although the latter type of victory sounds far less fascinating than the previous two. Any experienced general knows in his heart which one is more secure and that it should be the goal he dreams of.

"Yes!" Although Li Xixi was not as famous and capable as Fu Youde, her knowledge was not bad. She sighed and continued to sigh, "At the time, General Manager Zhao specially selected five thousand brothers for you, and some people think he had made some big fuss. Now, fortunately, these brothers under our command were all one out of ten. Otherwise, like those behind, even if they could conquer Yangzhou, they would not have the confidence to share dividends with General Manager Zhu!"

"Are you talking about them?" Fu Youde looked back at Guo Zixing and Sun Deyamen who were not far from his team, and shook his head with a sneer, "What you saw has been re-screened. Before entering Gaoyou, they had 20,000 people, and they looked even worse than they are now. Except for Zhu Chong, the two thousand guards brought by Zhu Liushisi were still worth watching, the others were simply a group of refugees. Not to mention fighting against the Fourth Army in front, even if we fight on the battlefield, Fu and his five thousand brothers under him will be enough to destroy them ten times in half a day!"

"Hahaha" Li Xixi shook her head and smiled with a proud face. It was the wisest decision he had ever made in his life to pull up the two of the Fu brothers to join Zhao Junyong. At least, he had always thought so before meeting Zhu Bashiyi. Otherwise, with the ability of the three of them, I would probably have to sit in a well on Dangshan and watch the sky in this life. I will never know how big the world outside is and how wonderful the heroes outside live.

Thinking of this, he slowly closed his smile again. He tried his best to approach Fu Youde and asked in a very low voice, "Have you been mindful these days? What is the difference between the Huaian Army's training method and ours? What do you look at me like like this? I don't mean that I mean, it's not that Mr. Zhu hid his private parts and did not teach him all his secrets to Mr. Zhao. I mean, Mr. Zhao may not learn it, and he is not very careful. No, no, no, I mean, this disciple and master are still a little different. If you don't believe me, look at the Huaian Army in front, and look at us, and the commander Mao in the future. This spirit is much worse. Although they are brothers who have trained the same military training method, we are completely different from them, at least they give me a completely different feeling!"

"Mr. Zhu has no private hiding!" Fu Youde was proud and decided that he would not lie with his mouth tilted. However, he also felt the huge difference between the Huai'an army and the team under his command. "For more than half a month in Gaoyou City, Wu Youtu's Fifth Army lived next to our team. How they did they do something and train, they never deliberately memorized people. I was by my side and watched it no less than ten times. The methods must be the same, but alas!"

He sighed, shook his head gently, and his heart was filled with loss and unwillingness for a moment. The methods were still the same, but the people who trained and trained were already completely different from those in Xuzhou. There are some things that you know clearly, and they are willing to teach you step by step, but they can't learn them no matter how hard they learn them. They don't have the ability or opportunity to learn them. At least, in Zhao Jun's use, he can't see any opportunities.

"But what? That's all right, why are you always sighing?!" Hearing the most critical point, there was suddenly no text. Li Xixi frowned and asked dissatisfiedly. "Hurry up, but what? Manager Zhu, what else is there to do with his skills?"

"Huai'an army is richer than us!" Fu Youde hesitated for a moment and began to try to find excuses. He just thought about some words in his heart and did not dare to tell Li Xixi. Although the other party was his good brother, the good brother's intestines were always connected to the end. Telling some words would only hurt him. Therefore, it would be better to let him continue to be confused.

"More than us?" Li Xixi didn't know that Fu Youde was deliberately misleading him. She was stunned and tilted her head to ask, "What's the matter with this? You can't use money to fight in wars! Otherwise, who can beat the Mongolian court!"

"Why do you say it's not about money!" Since he was determined to mislead his good brother, Fu Youde simply misled it to the end. "Eating meat every few days is difficult to see meat every half a month. Is it the same physical strength? Although our General Manager Zhao occupies two big cities in Suiyang and Xuzhou, they are not rich places. At least the two places together are not as good as the large salt warehouse of Huai'an. General Manager Zhu has a lot of salt and few soldiers, so the soldiers not only eat well, wear good clothes, armor and weapons are also fine.

Can the morale of the soldiers and horses piled up with gold not be strong? In addition, they have many artillery in their hands and never rely on their lives to pile up in wars. Who is not willing to train carefully? Besides, being a war soldier can at least support the family by military pay. From the tenth chief, it is said that every level of promotion can be doubled. If you and my brothers, if they start as a soldier, they will probably work hard to train and make contributions. If they don’t want anything else, they just want to get a few more money to let their wives and children live like their own way!”

"That's right, if we pay such a high military salary, at least half of the troops will be cut off. There are so many people, haha, I guess they won't have the money to marry my little wife!" Li Xixi was very interesting when she heard it, and the person who smashed the mouth was moved.

Although Fu Youde tried his best to mislead him, he still noticed something. For example, the treatment of soldiers and lower-level officers, the Huai'an army and Xuzhou army were all over the world. But when they walked to the top, the situation was just the opposite. Although according to Fu Youde, the soldiers of the Huai'an army could double their military pay every time they increased their level. But the generals all knew what they took. And in Xuzhou, there were more tricks. In addition to the private rewards from General Zhao, there were also various tacit secret tricks. It was entirely up to the generals to take more than they could, and they would have to follow the crowd. Otherwise, they would lose the true support of their subordinates and become a bare general!

As far as Li Xixi knows, Fu Youde is now a bit self-admiring. His brother Fu Youren is just the opposite, and he is always able to be with the light. So now the two brothers complement each other, and can still gain a foothold in the army, and can be valued by General Zhao. If Fu Youren is gone one day, I am afraid that no matter how strong Fu Youde's ability is, it will become the target of everyone's joint efforts to suppress, and then quickly lose General Zhao's favor.

"We are all used to hard life. When the poor are rich, it is natural to marry a few little wives to show off!" After Li Xixi's words, Fu Youde smiled and his face was bitter. "Actually, it's no big deal. If you are afraid, after marrying your little wives, you will fall into the red and pink formation and cannot climb out. Haven't you ever heard anyone say that the Gentle Land is a hero's tomb. The court of the Yuan Dynasty has not been moved for so long, maybe one day they will attack with the power of the country. But everyone is still busy comparing to who has more little wives and whose little wives are beautiful!"

"No, no, you're worried too much!" Li Xixi immediately shook her head into a rattle when she heard this. Instead of pursuing the difference between the Huai'an army and the Xuzhou army, she tried hard to comfort Fu Youdelai, "At least, our General Manager Zhao has always had a string of tension in his heart. Let me tell you, although he is casual on the surface, he understands it in his heart. Just these days when you went to war, he has already pulled up more than 20,000 brothers and has completely incorporated several groups of water heroes on the Yellow River. If the Mongolians want to take revenge on us, they must at least cross the Yellow River first."

"Is that so? That's because I'm too worried!" Fu Youde thought for a while and forced himself to smile. "Oh, I'm being compared by Huai'an army every day recently, so I will inevitably think about more miscellaneous things. Haha, haha."

The recruitment of heroes on the water is probably not only to stop the army of the Yuan Dynasty from moving south! Some things that you don’t think about may never be understood. If you really think about, you will instantly shudder. Why didn’t Zhu Chongjiu stop early or late? After capturing Gaoyou, he immediately stopped moving and made the Gaoyou Alliance? Guo Zixing and Sun Deya walked so slowly, is it really because the brothers under his command were not good? "The Tartars did not retreat, and the heroes did not attack and kill each other."

, Which one is this one targeted? With the 20,000 thugs of Guo Zixing and Sun Deya, would Zhu Chongjiu care? He sent out one of five new troops and could easily crush them. Wouldn't it be a good idea to kill them directly? Why should he pull them to sign any alliance?! Even Guo and Sun's mobs were going to pull up, but left Hu Dahai's troops, the most warlike in the Huai'an army, in the rear. Who is Zhu Chongjiu guarding against? Isn't it clear who he is guarding against?!

Just as he was thinking depressedly, a shrill horn suddenly came from the front, whimper, whimper, whimper, whimper——like the morning north wind. Then, from both the south and the east, several fast horses ran back like flying. On the back of the horse, the scouts of the Huai'an Army desperately waved their flags, "The enemy attacks, the enemy attacks, three miles ahead, the enemy appears!"

"Enemy attack! The enemy attacks, two and a half miles away, and there are enemy troops ambushing!"

"The enemy attacked, and a large number of enemy troops appeared in front of him, and the scale is still unclear!"

"There are two enemy troops on the flank, and the total strength is less than 30,000! They are rushing towards our army quickly!"
