All Gao Shunzhi's fame is because of the camp with only 700 people.

That army is Gao Shun's real killer weapon, and the other armies are probably cannon fodder.

Mr. Guo himself is deeply touched on how difficult it is to train an elite army.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, most of the troops were recruited temporarily, and there were very few regular regular troops.

Their military discipline is corrupt, their combat effectiveness is weak, and they have no cooperation. It is okay to encounter simple enemies, but it is hard to say when they encounter powerful enemies.

The military strategists of the Eastern Han Dynasty were not unable to see this.

However, due to the problems of the court's policies and the financial problems of the Eastern Han government, it is unrealistic to restore the large-scale standing army of the Western Han Dynasty.

So in the later period, the generals became very common, whether before or after the troubled times, Zhu Jun's private soldiers, Gongsun Zan's white horse Yicong, Gao Shun's trapped camp, Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry, etc.

These troops are well-equipped, well-trained, and have strong combat capabilities.

On the battlefield, the main generals often lead these truly elite troops with powerful generals as the absolute main force. When the time is ripe, they will put the army on the battlefield and achieve decisive victory.

The trap camp is Gao Shun's killer weapon, and it can even be said to be Lu Bu's killer weapon. As long as this army is destroyed, other Lu Bu's troops cannot be regarded as a threat.

Guo Peng didn't know where Lu Bu came from, but Lu Bu did eliminate many of his confidants.

Foreign enemies have never been a confidant for Guo Peng, because it is legitimate to deal with them, but if the internal enemies are to be dealt with, they will have to pay a certain price.

Now Lu Bu has helped him eliminate a large number of internal confidants, and Guo Peng really doesn't know how to thank Lu Bu.

I would like to thank you for sending you back to the West, and thank you for helping me eliminate these confidants!

Don't thank me.

You're not alive, thank me.

Guo Peng led his troops forward. On August 17, he led his army to meet Gao Shun's army west of Fan County, with a number of about 20,000.

Guo Peng's army was almost the same number. The two armies had equal strength and were evenly matched, so they set up their formation to prepare for a big battle.

Gao Shun was still very cautious. After the vanguard army was defeated and returned, he learned that Guo Peng had led his army to Rencheng Kingdom. He was very surprised and did not continue to move forward, but instead formed a camp on the spot, preparing to block Guo Peng.

He felt that Guo Peng came a little fast, which was beyond his budget, but since Guo Peng came, he had to continue fighting and could not retreat.

Gao Shun understands the principle of leading the mob. He can win with the wind, but if he suffers a little, he may fail. If he retreats, he will directly collapse and fail.

Except for a small number of core elite soldiers and some soldiers with combat experience, most of them are strong men who are forced to recruit on the spot. They have no will to fight and stay in the army when they see that they can rob money. As long as they are defeated in one fell swoop, they can say goodbye to this place.

Gao Shun knew very well about his situation with Lu Bu. Such a war cannot be defeated. Once the war is defeated once and the army is disintegrated, Guo Peng can immediately counterattack, and everything he has won before will be vain.

In addition to the captive cities, those who surrender can surrender now, and naturally they can surrender back. They are fence-bearing, both sides.

Only by victory can the results be consolidated. Once failure occurs, everything before will be wasted.

Gao Shun carefully arranged troops and arranged the troops, allowing experienced soldiers to form an army with inexperienced soldiers, and strictly prevented Guo Peng from finding any weaknesses.

But how could Guo Peng not find his weakness?

Guo Peng can see his greatest weakness from the group of soldiers who were not uniformly dressed and had not unified weapons.

Guo Jia naturally saw it.

"Supporting troops for a thousand days, using troops for a while, and my brother trained troops for a thousand days, and spent countless money and food. Now, it is time to test whether the soldiers are worthy of such kindness from my brother."

Guo Jia and Guo Peng climbed up to observe Gao Shun's military appearance. After watching it, Guo Jia said to Guo Peng with some confidence.

Guo Peng nodded, saying that he also agreed with Guo Jia's view.

"Yes, I have been raising soldiers for so many days, isn't it just today?"

How could the military appearance of the army led by Gao Shun be so messy?

There are regular soldiers wearing helmets, people who wrap their heads with cloth, and people who don’t have any headdresses and disheveled hair.

There are normal soldiers in military uniforms, civilians in ordinary cloth, shirtless refugees, bare legs, and even more, there are fig leafs on their bodies and their shoes are covered with tattered straw sandals.

The weapons they have in their hands are also varied.

There are fine iron weapons, standard weapons, wooden sticks, bamboo guns, and even farm tools. At first glance, it looks like a large exhibition of cold weapons in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

There are not many soldiers holding shields, basically they are in the front, and there are no shield-holding troops in the rear.

There are also cavalrymen, but the number is not large, and it is estimated that there are only a few hundred people and less than a thousand people.

Guo Peng also saw crossbowmen, but the number was very small.

It is estimated that most of the equipment was obtained from the powerful manors they plundered.

The treasury of these counties has not made any innovations like the counties that Guo Peng directly mastered. There may not be many weapons and equipment, and there may be many inferior ones as good ones.

When Guo Peng sorted out the treasurys of various counties in the past, he also found that there were many treasurys that were not managed by anyone. The things inside were rotten and no one managed them. However, there were many excellent weapons and even armor in the local manors.

Gao Shun gathered so many troops in a short period of time, and probably he was not equipped with equipment. He put together a ragged man like a beggar, and wanted to pretend to be an army to fight?

How can I, Mr. Guo, have trained me with all my efforts?

Unified war armor, unified weapons, military flags flutter, and a strict lineup.

If this professional army that is fed with money and food cannot even defeat you, a beggar-like army, what's the point of training me?

Gao Shun actually saw the difference in the military appearance between the two armies. At first glance, his military appearance was messy and looked very uncomfortable, while Guo Peng's military appearance was tight and the flags were flying, with an elite posture.

Gao Shun felt that the situation might be a little bad, and he might have provoked Guo Peng's main elite.

But, even so, what?

When the two armies fought, the ones in front were cannon fodder. What could really decide the outcome was the elites with clear and well-trained armor around the generals.

Gao Shun looked at the camp beside him.

Although there are only seven hundred people, Gao Shun believes that these seven hundred people can create miracles.

They have been trained with the most stringent equipment and worn the best armor. No matter how difficult Lu Bu is in, the food and clothing of this army has never been short of food and clothing.

As long as this army is still there, Lu Bu's Bingzhou Group can make a comeback no matter how far it is.

"Song Xian, I will order you to lead the camp and wait for my order!"

"yes!"

Song Xian took Gao Shun's general order and came to the army formation of the camp, ready to attack.

This army that was prohibited by orders will become the trump card in Gao Shun's hands and will become his decisive force to defeat Guo Peng.

Gao Shun will never doubt it.

Then, the war began.

The sound of war drums sounded from Guo Peng's military formation, and Gao Shun immediately ordered the sound of war drums, and the military formation on the front line began to attack forward.

The several military formations that Gao Shun placed in the front were basically composed of regular troops and were well equipped. As long as they could defeat Guo Peng's front army, they could basically lock in victory.

Gao Shun saw a large number of cavalry deployed by Guo Peng on both wings of the military formation, and knew that the cavalry in his hands was definitely not the opponent of Guo Peng's cavalry, so the only option was to defeat Guo Peng's infantry with infantry.

Guo Peng saw that Gao Shun's military formation had already attacked, so he also ordered his military formation to attack.

The war drums were beating and the drums were rumbling. The front-line military formation received the order to attack and, under the command of the generals, attacked the entire line.

Guo Peng's army has a very strict military appearance. He attacks step by step, and the footsteps can gather together, and he shouts while advancing. The huge momentum can directly bring a momentum impact to Gao Shun's army.

The battle between the two armies has begun across the air.

At this time, Gao Shun's military formation was far less stern than Guo Peng's military formation. His footsteps were broken and he could not gather together, and his shouts could not be unified, exposing serious cooperation problems.

The so-called "separation of industries is like a mountain" and this is true for any industry. The difference between occupations and non-occupations is a world of difference.
