Chapter 63: Rushing to the Front
Under the overall situation, no one can be left alone, and after half a month's rest, the military order to dispatch Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng to the front line has been delivered to the hands of the two.

After half a month of emergency drills, these people under Lin Chufeng have also begun to take shape, and as a first-class ironclad army, the rest of their training can also be completed with real swords and guns on the battlefield.
As for Ye Wen, he can't wait to leave immediately and go to the front line, he is really fed up with being an old mother to these bandits these days. When he arrives on the battlefield, in the face of life-and-death fighting, he can justifiably manage these bandits, instead of letting them eat ready-made here.
Of course, the battlefield is an inexplicable future death zone, and no one will know if they can get out smoothly in the next second, so Ye Wen will not be blindly optimistic.
Before the troops left, Ye Wen was also making the most adequate preparations, using the money and materials looted from the Li family, Ye Wen purchased a large number of medicinal materials and armor from Qingyun City, which may come in handy in the future.
The military order was like a mountain, simple and orderly, Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng took their men and began to march out of the camp. This time, their destination was Kaiyang City, and since the fall of Black Rock City and Shuiyue City on the border of Lanxi in North Vietnam, a large area of land between Kaiyang City and Xingluo City has become the forefront of the battle between the two sides.
On this march, Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng also encountered a lot of troops like them who were rushing to the front line. According to Ye Van De, during this month, almost all the troops in North Vietnam were carrying out large-scale movements.
North Vietnam had only five wings of regular troops, and the number of troops in the Hsiao family army, the garrisons of each city, and the royal Janissaries might barely reach 100,000.
However, according to the battle reports from the front, the current army stationed on the line from Kaiyang to Thanh Lok has reached 50,000, excluding the troops on the border around North Vietnam, the defenders of each city, and the Janissaries who maintain the imperial power, these 50,000 troops may have drained the troops of the whole country of North Vietnam.
Even so, so far, troops from all sides of North Vietnam have continued to advance to the front line. This is already a ruined ship without regard for his own safety, and no general will do this unless it is absolutely necessary, which shows that the current war situation in North Vietnam has inevitably deteriorated to a point that ordinary people can hardly imagine.
In fact, before coming again, Ye Wen was mentally prepared for everything here, but when Ye Wen really arrived in Kaiyang City, he was still stunned by the scene in front of him.
Spreading from Kaiyang City to miles away, simple tents were scattered like sand dunes. Most of these tents were inhabited by hungry people, some of whom were from Kaiyang City, and some of whom had escaped from the already lost Black Rock City and Water Moon City.
Because of the war, where could the North Vietnamese high-level take care of these people, lack of food and clothing, coupled with the devastation of the war, most of these people are yellow and thin, and they are only alive more than dead.
Mixed among these hungry people, there were also a large number of wounded soldiers who had retreated from the front line, and their bloodstained wounds had been severely worsened by the lack of medical care. Although they left the battlefield alive, they could not escape the fate of death after all.
In such a scene, any language of description pales in comparison, and only those who see it with their own eyes can feel the battlefield vivid, and only then can they understand the cruelty it represents.
Passing past these hungry people, their eyes looking at Ye Wen and the others already seemed hollow and lifeless, as if the war had destroyed everything for them.
Now Ye Wencai realizes that this war has been fought for three whole months, and for a fifth-class sub-country like North Vietnam, which has a weak national strength, such a long war is about to touch the limit of a country, let alone these ordinary people.
"Battalion commander, why don't you send them some of the food we brought!" Looking at these hungry people on the verge of death, Tu Shiwei couldn't bear to suggest to Ye Wen.
Tu Shiwei was born in a civilian family, he understands the difficulties of these civilians, when he was in Ziyun Peak, these bandits under his command were under the slogan of robbing the rich and helping the poor, and they were called "righteous bandits" by robbing the rich merchants in the past to help the surrounding people.
"No, order the team behind you to speed up." Regarding Tu Shiwei's suggestion, Ye Wen gritted his teeth and said in refusal.
Facing the tragic situation of starvation in front of him, Ye Wen couldn't bear it in his heart, but Ye Wen clearly knew that once he sent the food, even if it was just a little, these hungry people on the verge of death would hold on to this last life-saving straw and rush to them in a swarm.
The strength of the two battalions seems to be a lot, but in the face of tens of thousands of hungry people who can risk their lives for a bite to eat, they are simply powerless to resist, and if the situation deteriorates, they may be robbed of nothing.
As the situation gradually deteriorates, no one knows what will happen tomorrow, and the food and medicinal herbs they carry with them are their second lifeline. The big war is imminent, and it is impossible for Ye Wen to risk the destruction of the entire army to do such a drop in the bucket.
Now the only thing he can do is to reach the battlefield as quickly as possible, fight with his life, end this war as soon as possible, and give the people of North Vietnam a real paradise.
Thinking of Uncle Li's last wish before he died, Ye Wen felt for the first time that the burden on his shoulders was so heavy, and what he could do was so weak.
Thinking like this, Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng quickly entered Kaiyang City with their men, and as soon as they entered the city, all they saw were the dilapidated houses around them and the troops hastily mobilized on the street.
Kaiyang City is actually just a third-rate small city in North Vietnam, and the scale is far from being comparable to Qingyun City, with the influx of a large number of soldiers, Kaiyang City has been completely reduced to a fortress for defense, and a large number of ordnance and temporary reserves of military supplies can be seen everywhere.
Just as Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng were looking around this Kaiyang City, an officer in charge of liaison also came up in time and said sharply, "Which part do you belong to?" ”
"The first battalion of the fourth wing, the second battalion of the fourth wing." Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng replied in turn.
After verifying the identities of Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng, the officer immediately arranged: "Let your troops be stationed in Beicheng District temporarily, and then follow me to see General Xiao." ”
"Yes." After answering in unison, Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng rushed to Beicheng District with their subordinates, someone was the guide, and the placement of these people did not take much effort, everything was over, Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng immediately rushed to Xiao Yuanshan's marching station.
