At present, Guo Peng does not have infantry under his command, and all his subordinates are cavalry.

The five thousand cavalry selected from previous wars absorbed the heroes from the Quyun Land into the army to refine them into cavalry. Each of them could ride and shoot, and each of them was not afraid of close combat.

In order to enhance their combat capabilities, Guo Peng also equipped them with hand axes, warhammers and other items, which each person carries with him during wartime.

When it needs to be used, pull it out and smash it hard, which is a killer move against the infantry formation.

As for the infantry, Guo Peng has not considered it, but the current political atmosphere cannot provide the possibility of his unscrupulous expansion of the army.

The number of cavalry under his command has been reported to him is still 3,000, and the others are "retreat as soon as they are used up", let alone infantry.

The infantry army was temporarily recruited by county and state soldiers and militias, and they had encountered dangers many times, which made Guo Peng deeply realize that without the cooperation of the elite infantry, his cavalry would be difficult to exert their maximum combat effectiveness.

But what should we do on the basis of not being able to expand the army openly?

It is easy to deal with, so we will arrange the group of refugees in Shanggu County and train them, farm during the busy farming period, and pull out to train troops during the slack farming period, practice military formations and tactics, and directly recruit these refugees to join the army when needed.

What you practice by yourself is always better than the bad guys who come from where you don’t know.

Guo Peng almost failed in the previous battle against Zhang Chun.

The arrows on my shoulders can be seen every time I change my clothes. Cao Lan's tears were so much that Guo Peng felt very uncomfortable.

So Guo Peng thought about training a reliable infantry army.

In the past few days, the infantry is the absolute main force, and its role cannot be compensated by cavalry. Without a reliable infantry, the power will not take shape.

Guo Peng also knew very well that the army wanted to follow a reliable general.

So the soldiers under his command all trusted him and were willing to obey his orders and never betrayed them. But why doesn’t the general want a reliable elite army?

Elite soldiers are not just talk about them or are formed by recruiting strong people. They have to put in a lot of effort to practice.

Whenever he thinks about practicing infantry, Guo Peng can think of the name Gao Shun. He and the camp he led are really famous.

Every attack is broken, and these six words are not something that any army can obtain.

Unfortunately, he died too early and did not get a greater chance to show himself, otherwise he might not have been able to have greater fame.

What made Guo Peng even more regretful was Gao Shun's loyalty to Lu Bu. Every time Lu Bu did stupid things, Gao Shun would advise him, but he would not listen.

Then every time something goes wrong and cannot solve it, Gao Shun is the first thing that comes to mind.

When Gao Shun doesn't need to seize Gao Shun's military power, he will only give him the military power when he needs to use him.

He usually didn't get close to Gao Shun. When a general betrayed him and wanted to rebel, he hid in Gao Shun's military camp as soon as possible because he was sure that Gao Shun would not betray him.

The more Guo Peng looked at the relationship between the two, the more he felt that Gao Shun was like a silly girl who was deceived by a scumbag.

I was deceived and let down again and again, but in the end I had to be someone else's licking dog until I died.

Gao Shun really died for Lu Bu.

If it weren't for the person he chose to be loyal to was Lu Bu, perhaps his future would be even more brilliant.

With his ability to train and command the army to fight, his achievements will never be inferior to Zhang Liao. When Zhang Liao fought under Lu Bu's command, he was subject to Gao Shun's restraint.

Gao Shun also led his troops independently against the three brothers of Liu Bei, defeating the three brothers of Liu Bei, and then defeated Xiahou Dun who came to support Liu Bei. The battle in which Xiahou Dun lost one eye was the battle against the enemy Gao Shun.

The more Guo Peng thought and the more he thought, the more jealous he became.

A man who is short-sighted and does not know what loyalty is. He has only women in his mind, but he is reckless in fighting, and profits are robbing, but he can get loyalty to someone like Gao Shun until he dies.

Guo Zifeng is handsome and handsome, and has a great reputation. She is so high that she is more high than Lu Bu. If you want to lick him, you should lick him, right?

I also want such a dedicated dog licking!

Guo Peng shouted like this several times in his heart.

The pearl is cast in the dark!

Absolutely dark bend!

But Guo Peng didn't know how to get Gao Shun, as Gao Shun's origin was not recorded in history books.

But since he appeared, he was bound to Lu Bu. With his unswerving loyalty to Lu Bu until his death, it is not difficult to imagine that the two may be fellow townsmen and their friendship has been from childhood to adulthood.

Guo Peng is helpless about this kind of bonded friendship.

Guo Peng sent someone to Bingzhou for a visit, but found Zhang Liao, who was a subordinate in Yanmen County, but did not find any trace of Gao Shun.

Faced with Guo Peng's invitation, Zhang Liao refused on the grounds that his mother needed his support.

However, this is not a big deal for Guo Peng. A cavalry general like Zhang Liao is nothing. He is no longer short of brave generals who charge in front of the battle.

But it is really troubled to not be able to find Gao Shun.

This is even more true when it is necessary to train elite infantry now.

In desperation, Guo Peng personally arrested the military training of the strong men and personally guided the strong men to practice.

During this period, Guo Peng received a letter from Cao Song, who told him that he had become the Grand Marshal.

Guo Peng was stunned for a while before realizing that Cao Song was dismissed because of the former Grand Marshal Cui Lie, and then spent a lot of money to buy the position of Grand Marshal and became one of the three Dukes.

As a result, Cao Song reached his political peak. He showed off to Guo Peng in his heart, saying that Guo Peng was the son-in-law of the Taiwei of the dynasty, and the benefits were great.

Guo Peng smiled bitterly at it.

The three dukes are political vases. If they don’t hold other positions, they don’t have any actual power. They are just good-looking. They are specifically responsible for taking the blame for the emperor. They spent so much money to get the position of a scapegoat. Guo Peng didn’t know how Cao Song calculated the account.

Could it be that he still wants to turn the Cao family into the third prince of the fourth generation?

Guo Peng was speechless and wrote back to congratulate him, without saying anything else.

At the end of December, Guo Peng sent Zhao Yun and Guo Lie to Luoyang and brought Cao Lan and the children to Shanggu County. The family reunited, and the children were raised by him personally, so the family had a rare reunion New Year.

Then, the fourth year of Zhongping ended and the fifth year of Zhongping arrived.

Guo Peng knew that this year was the year when chaos really began, but he didn't expect that the first battle of the year was actually fought by himself.

On the 13th day of the first lunar month of the fifth year of Zhongping, a group of Xianbei people went south to attack the border.

Guo Peng was very angry. Before the border counties could react, he personally led 5,000 elite knights to counterattack, defeated them, beheaded more than 3,000, and simply solved the group of Xianbei people.

So the foreigners in Youzhou knew that the knife in Guo Peng's hand was getting sharper and sharper, and they were not something they could fight against.

After Guo Peng reported this matter to the court, the court breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought there was another war in the northern border, but it was solved by Guo Peng in a few seconds. It was great. Guo Peng is such a good comrade.
