Chapter 782: Dazhen Capital!

The output of the Ordnance Department is very objective, it can produce 30 Ugly Cow guns a day, and the output of a month is 900 Ugly Cow artillery, I believe that it only takes five months for the artillery produced by the Ordnance Department to temporarily meet the needs of the major battalions in Daqin!

Of course, this is also a very costly, and the Ordnance Department has to burn hundreds of thousands of taels of silver every day!

Three months in a flash, May 10 in the twenty-sixth year of the Holy Qin!

The capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Dazhen!

Dazhen was originally the capital of the Dayue Dynasty, after the Dayue Dynasty was destroyed by the Southern Wei, it was occupied by the Southern Wei, a few years later, the Taigong led the Northern Wei army to sweep the entire border, recaptured the eight counties of Dayue from the hands of the Southern Wei, and set up Dazhen City, which was originally the capital of the Dayue Dynasty, as the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty!

Compared with the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Southern Wei Dynasty, the territory of the Northern Wei Dynasty was broader than that of the Southern Wei Dynasty, and the territory occupied by the Northern Wei Dynasty was the original eight counties of Dayue and the eight counties of the Great Wu, a total of sixteen counties, while the Southern Wei Dynasty occupied the old land of the fourteen counties of the Great Wei Dynasty.

Although the territory of the Northern Wei Dynasty is vast, it is far inferior to the Southern Wei Dynasty in terms of population and youth, and in terms of finance, the Northern Wei Dynasty is on a par with the Southern Wei Dynasty, they are all poor ghosts, and they are not much better than each other.

I have to say that the Taigong did not set himself up as the emperor, he is still the abolition of the prince of the Great Wei Dynasty, and the real name of the army under the Taigong is not called the Northern Wei Army, but the Prince Army, but outsiders like to call the Northern Wei Dynasty a dynasty, and the army is called the Northern Wei Army.

.....

Thirty miles north of Dazhen City!

On the official road!

On this steep and uneven official road, 100,000 Qin troops lined up into a neat black-armored long dragon is marching, this official road is not only steep and uneven, but also a large number of quagmire puddles, some foot soldiers are careless, half of their legs are sunken, the most difficult is the baggage battalion soldiers, pushing a single-wheeled cart full of grain, from time to time to roll over.

The most comfortable is still the cavalry, regard this muddy road as a plain, unimpeded, but even so, the speed of the cavalry can not be raised, without the general's military order, can not throw off the infantry, so the speed of the entire army is dragged into a snail speed by this bad road.

Located at the forefront of the march, Yang Hu and the four sons of the Yang family and the envoy of the Northern Wei Dynasty Tian Ji first rode in parallel, Tian Ji first returned to the border between the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Yue Dynasty after leaving the Haoyue Imperial Capital of the Yue Dynasty, waiting for the Yang army to go south, and then leading the way for the Yang army.

At this time, Yang Hu saw that there were abandoned fields on both sides of the official road, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Tian Jixian on the side, and asked indifferently: "How far is it from the Dazhen Capital City here?" ”

When Tian Ji heard this, he hurriedly saluted and replied: "Back to General Yang, this place is Wanhuangling, and it is still thirty miles away from the capital of Dazhen, at the current speed, it will definitely arrive early tomorrow morning, my prime minister and the prince have already done a good job of reception, and I also ask General Yang to march patiently!" ”

Yang Hu gave Yang Zhong a look, Yang Zhong nodded in understanding, immediately turned the direction of the horse's head, and shouted with his face to the marching army behind him: "The general has an order, suspend the march!" ”

"The general has an order, suspend the march!"

"The general has an order, suspend the march!"

When the generals behind heard Yang Zhong's words, they immediately conveyed the military order to the rear, and in less than a moment, the 100,000 troops stopped their steps and stood motionless in place.

Seeing the Qin army behind him stop, Monk Tian Jixian couldn't figure his head, and didn't understand why Yang Hu instructed Yang Zhong to stop the army, "This ..... General Yang, what does this mean? Tian Jixian asked Yang Hu with a puzzled expression.

Yang Hu did not answer Tian Jixian, but jumped off the war horse, walked to the deserted field on the side of the official road, and then looked around the deserted field, and found that this is an excellent plain place, vast and boundless, and there are no mountains around.

Tian Ji first followed Yang Hu to the deserted field on the side of the official road because of doubts, and his companions were the four sons of the Yang family.

Yang Hu stepped on the ground under his feet and found that the land was a little hard, and it did not accumulate into mud. ”

Although I don't know why Yang Hu asked this, Tian Jixian still replied with a smile: "General Yang doesn't know, the soil here is hard, crops can't be grown, and only weeds can grow here, so before or after the war, this is a wasteland!" ”

"Oh?" Yang Hu's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, "So, isn't this a wasted fertile land?" ”

"Of course not, I wonder why General Yang is so interested in this place?" Tian Ji answered first, and later generations raised their own questions.

Yang Hu stretched out his hand and pointed to the surroundings of the wasteland, and explained the confusion for Tian Ji first: "There is no end here, there are no mountains around, the ground is hard, and the grass is like a forest, like a grassland land, if our army is encamped again, it can greatly save our army's military food!" ”

Yang Hu is nothing more than looking at the weeds and vast plains in this wasteland, and wants to set up camp here, the weeds here can provide food for the war horses, which can save the military rations he brings and improve the duration of the army.

"Huh? General Yang wants to set up camp here! Tian Ji was shocked first!

"What? Isn't it possible? Yang Hu asked rhetorically.

Tian Jixian replied with a look of embarrassment: "It's not that it's not impossible, it's just that the prince and the prime minister learned of the arrival of the Qin army, and specially emptied the northern city of the Dazhen capital for the Qin army soldiers to live in. ”

"In terms of comfort, it is naturally comfortable to live in the city, but my Qin army has traveled thousands of miles to the Southern Wei Dynasty, not for enjoyment, so the heart of the prince of your country and the prime minister of your country has been understood!" Yang Hu said calmly.

"Yang Zhong! Yang Yi! Yang Wu! Yang Shuang! ”

"The last general!"

"Immediately send an order to the whole army, and the army will camp a thousand steps away from the right side of the official road, and notify the baggage battalion to prepare a fire for cooking!"

Without waiting for Tian Ji to reply first, Yang Hu continuously ordered the four sons of the Yang family to issue a military order for the army to set up camp, and after the military order was issued, the 100,000 Qin troops quickly retreated to the right side of the official road and camped a thousand steps away.

"This ..... Alas! ”

Tian Ji wanted to speak and then stopped, and finally sighed helplessly!

It seems that you can only pass through the prince and the prime minister, and let the prince and the prime minister decide!

"General Yang, then take the first step and go to Dazhen City to pass the prince!" Tian Jixian looked solemn and bent down to salute Yang Hu.

"Well, go ahead!" Yang Hu waved his hand indifferently.

PS: "Ask for all, ask for everything, ask for everything!" ”
