Chapter 365: The Great War is about to begin

Shortly after returning to the station, it was already evening.

After having dinner with the soldiers, Xu Yang and other officers gathered in the conference room and quietly waited for the uninvited guests to visit.

Sure enough, as Xu Yang expected, the magistrate of Huaxian County really came.

"Lord Chief, you won't refuse such favorable conditions, right?" said the magistrate of Huaxian County, although his face was calm, but his heart was very nervous.

The Black Gold Army agreed to their cooperation or not, which is related to whether he can survive the rest of his life smoothly, so the magistrate must do his best to reach the cooperation between the two sides.

"In that case, what else can we refuse?"

"Well, it's a pleasure to work with. Xu Yang said with a smile.

As soon as these words came out, the old face of the county magistrate suddenly laughed, and the smile was extremely bright, like a chrysanthemum under the residual sun...

The palms of the two suddenly shook together, and from now on, the take-off of the Black Gold Army was already a certainty.

————————————————

With the agreement between the two sides, countless gold and silver were continuously sent to the Black Gold Army, and Xu Yang was desperately exchanging all kinds of heavy equipment and weapons.

However, in half a year, the Black Gold Army vigorously expanded its army in Nanshouzhou, and by mid-June, the Black Gold Army had a group army of 50,000 people, and at the same time, it had also formed an air force and navy.

However, due to the shortage of personnel and the high price of equipment, the Air Force has so far only five Il-76 transport planes and one F-16 "Fighting Falcon" fighter, and the main purpose is only to be able to quickly transport troops to the target location in wartime.

The Air Force is so pitiful, and the Navy is even more so, with as many as 10 troops in the whole army, and the commander of the Navy even personally serves as the captain of the only patrol boat in the Navy.

And if you compare the air force and navy with the army, these equipment of the two armies are not even a fraction of the army.

Let's not talk about the big picture, let's take a single infantry platoon.

Each platoon has one Javelin anti-aircraft missile, one M2A3 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle, two Barrett M82A1 anti-materiel sniper rifles, two Type 88 sniper rifles, one Type 90 mortar, and the number of light and heavy machine guns is as high as ten.

The powerful firepower allows an ordinary infantry platoon of the Black Gold Army to play the role of at least one company.

And the price of such luxurious equipment is, of course, extremely high, which is why the Air Force and Navy are so hard.

Due to the full cover of the partners, all the news of Nanshouzhou could not reach the ears of Emperor Yuan Rang of Qianyuan, let alone let him know that Nanshouzhou of the Qianyuan Empire had turned into a military jurisdiction of the Black Gold Army.

However, even if he was allowed to know the news, he would not have the time and military strength to take care of the affairs of the Black Gold Army.

Because, the army of the Japanese Empire was less than ten miles away from the national capital.

Things have to start from half a year ago.

Half a year ago, on the day when the Black Jin Army reached an agreement with the governor of Jiangzhou, the Emperor of the Qianyuan Empire and the envoys of the Northern Xiongnu Empire also reached an offensive and defensive alliance agreement.

The agreement stipulated that the Qianyuan Empire must send no less than 200,000 troops to support the northern Xiongnu Empire's troops against the Japanese Empire.

Soon after the agreement was reached, near the Yali River of the Xiongnu Empire, the Qianyuan Empire's dispatch army and the Xiongnu Empire's Green Flag Army, with a total of 1 million troops, were surrounded by 100,000 Japanese Empire's 100,000 troops, and under the bombardment of aircraft and artillery, the armies of the two countries left 300,000 corpses and fled in a hurry.

After counting the strength of the two armies after the war, they found that less than 500,000 of the original 1 million people before the war remained, and the number of dead and wounded in the battle plus missing was as high as 500,000.

The Japanese Empire easily defeated the million-strong coalition army of the two countries with 100,000 inferior troops, which shocked Emperor Qianyuan's heart, and he was deeply jealous of the strength of this Japanese Empire.

According to the information from the Xiongnu Empire, it was described that the Japanese Imperial Army used a firearm that could shoot from a distance, which shocked Yuan Rang's heart.

You must know that in the southern frontier of the empire, there is a bandit army lurking, and the firearms they use are exactly the same as the firearms of the newly emerged Japanese imperial army.

Could it be that the bandit army in southern Xinjiang is the people of the Japanese Empire?

Thinking that there was such an army hidden in the hinterland of his empire, Yuan Rang felt a chill in his heart.

Thinking of the bandit army in southern Xinjiang, Yuan Rang suddenly found that the army sent to southern Xinjiang to suppress bandits in the past half a year had no news at all, and the southern Xinjiang government also seemed to have never seen this bandit army, and there was no news at all.

Yuan made him absolutely unbelievable, the bandit army sent into southern Xinjiang by the Japanese Empire could not have moved at all for half a year.

Unless, the government in southern Xinjiang is covering up the news of this bandit army.

Thinking of this, Yuan Rang's heart was cold, if this was the case. There is only one person who can make the southern Xinjiang government collude, and that is the governor of Jiangzhou.

In the officialdom, the governor of Jiangzhou is only a second-class official, and he is not the largest in the capital, but this governor of Jiangzhou is not ordinary.

The governor of Jiangzhou directly ruled the eight prefectures of southern Xinjiang, and his power in the southern border of Xinjiang was too great for ordinary people to imagine.

If he was killed by this man, a new emperor would ascend the throne the next day, even to the point where no one would care about the cause of his death.

In fact, Emperor Yuan Rang has always been a puppet emperor, except for military affairs, he can't interfere in political affairs at all, and most of the people around him are the people of the civilian official group of the governor of Jiangzhou, and there are very few generals.

It can be said that he, the emperor, is also extremely aggrieved in front of him.

However, the general situation made it impossible for him to distract himself from dealing with the black gold army.

With the first crushing defeat of the combined armies of the two countries, the second, the third crushing also followed.

In just two months, the Qianyuan Empire left five or six hundred thousand corpses in the territory of the Xiongnu State, and the Northern Blue Dragon Legion existed in name only.

The Xiongnu Empire exerted all its national strength and invested all the troops of the country into this national war related to life and death, but in the end, it was difficult to escape the destruction of the country.

The Japanese Empire destroyed the once glorious Xiongnu State in just two months, and its troops approached the border of the Qianyuan Empire.

In the fourth month of the war, the Japanese Imperial Army had surrounded the capital of the Qianyuan Empire.

The Qianyuan Empire is already in jeopardy.

The armies of the whole country are gathering and preparing to enter the king of Jingqin, and the black gold army, which Taoguang has been obscure for half a year, can't hold back.

If the Japanese Empire really overthrew the Qianyuan Empire, the crisis of the Black Gold Army would come.

In the final analysis, the strength of the Black and Gold Army is too weak.
