Three Kingdoms: Cao Chong's will, in fact, my eldest brother is not dead!

Chapter 153 Thousands of people against ten thousand people

Huang Zhong is also ready. His 1000 people have been training and are on standby.

These 1000 people are troops equipped with Zhuge Liannu. Because the Liannu is not easy to carry, it basically does not belong to the conventional army. It is not infantry or cavalry, but an army attached to the fleet.

Cao Ang's order was issued, and Huang Zhong quickly brought people to the post house to gather.

1000 people sounds like a lot, but actually it doesn't look like a lot when gathered together.

What matters is not the number of people, but the will to fight. As long as you are brave enough, you can run after an army by yourself.

When the troops assembled, Cao Ang found that they had no fear.

This is enough to see Huang Zhong's ability to lead troops. The army of this era needs to constantly boost morale, which is a great test of the coach's ability. It is impossible to rely on their self-consciousness.

"My lord, Huang Zhong is on standby!"

"Okay, it is reported that there are about [-] enemies, can you handle it?"

"Huang Zhong must do his best, but for the sake of safety, the young master has to evacuate here first, the outcome is hard to say."

"No, I'm in this post house, relying on you."

Of course Cao Ang wouldn't run now, it's useless to run, and it would have a big impact if he failed.

However, he has more confidence in this army than Huang Zhong, because it is equipped with Liannu, which Huang Zhong cannot estimate. The importance of long-range firepower will only be realized in later generations, and no local tyrant can afford to fight for so long in troubled times.

If there are only 1000 people, Cao Ang can still be satisfied, and the crossbows are still "borrowed".

There were no elite tiger and leopard riders on the opposite side, but bandits like mountain people, so Cao Ang was full of confidence.

These soldiers had indeed experienced Huang Zhong's rigorous training, but they didn't have much confidence in themselves. They didn't expect Cao Ang to trust them so much, which also boosted morale to a certain extent.

"Don't worry, my lord, as long as one of us is alive, we won't let anyone enter the post house!"

"Yes, I will never let you down!"

"Let Jiang Dong know that we are also heroes of the world!"

The soldiers cheered up, what more could they ask for in this troubled world, even if they escaped, they might not be able to live long.

It's better to fight to the death, fight for wealth, even if you die, you can live forever, it's better than starving to death.

In this world, the average life expectancy is not high.

Cao Ang nodded: "Don't worry, the heroes of the world will remember this battle, and you will definitely have a seat!"

At this time, Zhuge Liang was still watching from behind, and he realized that everyone in this team was equipped with Liannu. Thinking of the blueprints and samples that Cao Ang asked him before, he nodded slightly.

Zhao Yun said from the side: "Military Master, why don't you take this opportunity and leave first?"

"Zilong, I can't leave now, do you know why?"

"Zhao Yun knows, but if there is something wrong with the military master, Zhao Yun is ashamed to the lord."

They are all the same people, so why are they working so hard? Isn't it just for fame.

If he ran away now, his reputation would be ruined if he survived, so what's the point of trying harder?
Zhuge Liang said indifferently: "If the Lord is here, what will he do?"

Zhao Yun stopped talking, he didn't dare to talk nonsense, of course Liu Bei couldn't be persuaded, he was the banner of a big man.

Cao Ang handed over the battlefield to Huang Zhong, and walked back with blood all over his body, and came to Zhuge Liang.

"Sir, you can leave first, I have prepared a boat for you."

"Young master, what do you mean by scolding Kong Ming?"

"No, sir is not one of my Cao Jun, not my subordinate, leaving at this time will not damage your reputation."

"Master, you underestimate me, I promise to stay with you, even if I die, I will not leave!"

Zhuge Liang was stubborn, "Besides, my lord will not lose this battle."

Cao Ang smiled: "Sir, did you see it?"

"Young Master built this crossbow according to my blueprint. I didn't know what it was used for, so there was an omission in the blueprint..."

"It's okay, it won't affect the situation of this battle."

Zhuge Liang did mention the flaws in his drawings, but Cao Ang didn't mind at all.

In fact, as long as there are strict tests, you will know that there are problems, but Cao Ang still built it, because these problems can be ignored, too much equipment is really troublesome, but if there are only 1000 people, it can be used as consumables.

This kind of drawing also needs to bring samples, Zhuge Liang can only do this kind of tricks.

Because if you can't shoot, you can't fool it, so you can only design the defect as "easy to break".

Zhuge Liang said embarrassingly: "That Liannu, I'm afraid it won't last long."

"It's okay, just replace it when it's worn out. Anyway, as long as you shoot a few enemies, you won't lose money."

"Hey, that makes sense..."

Cao Ang's understanding also made Zhuge Liang a little enlightened. The battlefield really shouldn't be so particular. As long as the power is enough, the life span is not long and it can be tolerated. This is the thinking of all-out war in later generations.

In ancient times, because the technology was only in the hands of a few people, mass production was not possible in many cases.

So many weapons have to be made for a lifetime, and even passed down as family heirlooms for generations...

In fact, it is not necessary. On a large-scale battlefield, it can be even more cruel. As long as one life can be exchanged for two of the opponent, it is a big victory. Total war does not pursue zero casualties.

Therefore, in normal training, try to make durable and high-quality ones. When you really fight, you have to make them fast.

Cao Ang knew that he thought differently, so he stopped trying to persuade Zhuge Liang. Seeing that Sun Shangxiang was still waiting, he ordered, "Bring some stools out... No, let's set up a banquet at the door. You haven't had dinner yet."

Since you are not running, then calm down, there is no use in panic.

Zhuge Liang agreed quite a bit when he heard it. This is also his style.

……

At this time, Sun Quan was very frightened.

Although Zhou Yu said that tens of thousands of Shanyue people had been transferred, he always felt that something was wrong.

"Gongjin, I'm still worried that I won't be able to take it down. What if I still can't move Cao Ang?"

"My lord, this can't be... He brought more than a thousand people to the sky, and he is not a heavy cavalry, how can he resist ten thousand people?"

Everyone knows how powerful Tiger and Leopard Riders are. If these thousand were Tiger and Leopard Riders, Shanyue might not be able to defeat a hundred thousand.

But they are all infantry, and everyone with three heads and six arms can't resist, so it's not like everyone is the enemy of ten thousand.

The enemy of ten thousand people is just a description, and it is not really capable of fighting ten thousand people.

It is not easy to have such generals in the world. They are all famous generals with names and surnames. Cao Ang's 1000 people are all famous generals?

"I always feel that Cao Ang is an extraordinary person, and we should not fight against each other."

Sun Quan was really forced by Cao Ang's aura. After this period of communication, his heart was lower than before.

It would be better to say that he is more realistic. Cao Jun is indeed powerful, and it is luck to fight against the strong. Now that there are conditions for peace talks, why take risks.

But Zhou Yu and the other generals were not convinced, they couldn't swallow this breath, and they were already thinking of Sun Quan if they didn't do it themselves.

"My lord, if these 1 people can be defeated, please capture your subordinates, present them to Cao Ang, and let him kill them!"
