I will work hard to learn new knowledge and develop more powerful firearms in the future, so that the KPA will be invincible. ”

"I want to develop high-yielding crop seeds so that no one in the world will ever die of hunger."

"I want to put a pair of wings on my body and fly freely in the sky like a bird."

With Fang Nan's words, the students in the audience became more eager to learn new knowledge, although they have books in their hands, but reading books by themselves does not mean that they can understand the content of the books, they also need a teacher to lead them to swim in the ocean of knowledge.

Learning, only by learning more new knowledge, can we achieve the possibility of fulfilling our dreams.

The opening ceremony of Guangzhou University is underway, and on the other side, the three group armies of the People's Army stationed in the border areas have already begun to move.

Most of the 22 reorganized divisions and 180,000 horses of the First Group Army led by Wang Shengrong have already marched north from Nanxiong City, Guangdong, and Anyuan County, Ganzhou Prefecture, Jiangxi Province.

The First Group Army led by Xiong Jian, with a total of six integrated divisions of nearly 50,000 troops, was also divided into two routes, marching north from the northern part of Guangzhou City and Shaozhou City in Guangdong.

The Second Group Army led by Yan Han, with a total of six integrated divisions of nearly 50,000 horses, marched eastward from Chaozhou City, Guangdong, to the Tingzhou and Zhangzhou Prefectures in Fujian.

The Third Group Army, led by He Yan, with a total of six integrated divisions of nearly 50,000 troops, marched westward from Luoding City and Zhaoqing City in Guangdong Province to Wuzhou Prefecture in Guangxi.

Wherever the People's Army passed, the Ming army retreated one after another, and did not engage in a battle with the People's Army, especially the Tang Qi Department of the Ming Army in Guangxi, which had an army of nearly 140,000 troops, and when facing He Yan's 50,000 horses, he took the initiative to abandon the capital city of Wuzhou, retreated, and was unwilling to fight with the People's Army.

Not only the Tang Qi Department of the Ming Army, but also the Zheng Yuewen Department of the Ming Army in Fujian, and the Li Zhengmao Department of the Ming Army in Huguang were the first to retreat in the face of the People's Army, and they did not give the People's Army a chance to fight at all, and even gave up the city.

Tang Qi, Zheng Yuewen, and Li Zhengmao all wholeheartedly obeyed the secret decree given to them by Zhu Yijun, preserved their own strength as much as possible, and let Li Chengliang's troops fight with the People's Army first, and it was best to kill Li Chengliang's troops and the People's Army, and then the three of them waved their troops to wipe out the remaining remnants of the army.

In fact, the Ming army of Li Chengliang's army in Jiangxi was also rapidly retreating when it saw the People's Army, and Li Chengliang's 500,000-strong army was assembled in the north-central part of Ganzhou Prefecture and the northern part of Nan'an Prefecture in Jiangxi, and the assembly had not yet been completed at this time.

Li Chengliang felt that the People's Army with sharp firearms would pay a heavy price to break through the city under the condition that he would be able to break through the city.

The Ming army retreated, and the People's Army did not pursue, but continued to move forward at a normal pace, not wanting to consume too much physical strength in pursuing the enemy, and more importantly, each integrated division of the People's Army had a heavy artillery regiment, and there were baggage troops behind, and under their drag, it was difficult for the People's Army to move if it wanted to march quickly.

"Order the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Divisions to leave behind the heavy artillery regiments and baggage troops, break away from the large army, advance lightly, and lure the Ming army."

Wang Shengrong issued an order, and the People's Army of Wang Shengrong's army, which was divided into two routes, was quickly divided into two small units, one east and one west, with the first and third divisions on the east side being about 12,000 people, and the west side being the second and fourth divisions, with a strength of about 12,000 people.

The two small units abandoned the heavy artillery regiment and the baggage troops, left the large army, and marched quickly to the north.

The Ming army spies were already keeping an eye on the movements of the People's Army, and soon, Li Chengliang, who was sitting in the capital of Ganzhou, received information that Wang Shengrong had sent out two small troops.

"People's Army vanguard?" This was Li Chengliang's first thought after seeing the intelligence.

The two armies fought, vanguard against vanguard, but Li Chengliang did not have this idea, if he directly destroyed the vanguard of the People's Army and scared the large army of the People's Army back, it would not be good.

After thinking about it, a plan appeared in Li Chengliang's mind, and not long after, Li Chengliang's army also had two troops of 10,000 people leaving and advancing towards the two small troops in the east and west of Wang Shengrong's department.

It should be noted that the two Ming armies, with a total of 20,000 people, were all recruits who had joined the Ming army for less than half a year, and their combat effectiveness was very poor, there were no grenadiers, and they were not even equipped with many firearms.

Li Chengliang wanted to make an illusion for the People's Army, that the vanguard of the People's Army would easily defeat the Ming Army, let the People's Army continue to think that it was strong, and then let the People's Army fight a decisive battle with his own side.

As for the vanguard of the People's Army launching an attack on Li Chengliang's army after "defeating" the two Ming armies, Li Chengliang did not believe that more than 20,000 People's Army would dare to launch an attack on hundreds of thousands of Ming troops.

During the KPA march, the first day of February passed, and the time entered the morning of the second day of February.

"Report to the division commander, the Ming army was found ten miles away, with more than 10,000 troops, mainly cold weapons, and very few firearms."

Wang Dayou, commander of the First Division of the People's Army, and Liu Hong, commander of the Third Division, who were riding horses together, received a report from the scouts.

"Interesting, the Ming army sent such a few people, did they look down on us?" Liu Hong looked at Wang Dayou and said.

Hearing Liu Hong's words, Wang Dayou laughed and replied: "If the Ming army really wants to fight us, it will definitely send several times the number of men and horses. ”

"The Ming army sent people, then we will accept it, just as the Ming army wished."

Wang Dayou nodded approvingly, and the next moment, the small troops on the East Road accelerated forward.

Halfway through the morning, the small unit of the People's Army on the East Road finally met this 10,000-strong Ming army, and the battle was about to begin, which would be the first battle in the new war between the People's Army and the Ming Dynasty.

"I feel that Li Chengliang has sent a bunch of recruits over, and he can let them go into 200 meters, if he is not worried about accidents, he can be placed within 100 meters." Wang Dayou, who was riding on a war horse, saw the Ming army in front of him through a monocular.

"Well, it's better to be on the safe side." Liu Hong also said.

The distance between the KPA and the Ming army was getting closer and closer, and the KPA was ready for battle, and the musket regiment, as the absolute main force, came to the front of the line, followed by the first regiment and the grenadiers.

On the side of the Ming army, the generals of the Ming army on horseback were directly in the middle and rear of the queue, and some other officers were in the position of being as far back as they could, and most of the soldiers did not know that they were here to die, but the middle and senior officers knew that they did not want to die in this battle.

"Rush, rush, destroy the thieves in front, everyone can be promoted and make a fortune!" The generals shouted to boost the morale of the soldiers, well, let the soldiers die a little better.
