The management of the plague is not a simple matter, and it also requires the cooperation of the local **, but in the current situation, Jia Xu is not optimistic at all. Because of the constant occurrence of various contingencies, land annexation brought with it a large number of bankrupt peasants, who simply did not have enough food to survive. In the face of survival. The plague is not worth mentioning. They will riot, they will revolt constantly. For example, the Yellow Turbans. This will accelerate the large-scale outbreak of the plague, coupled with the brutal environment of war, starvation. The impact of a combination of multi-pronged factors can be quite large, and in such a situation, it seems impossible to make a greater difference.

Because in comparison, simply building a hospital has a few more medical staff. Doesn't solve the problem at all.

This will only increase the waste of medical resources. But what Shang Wu thought was that instead of doing nothing, it was better to invest some medical resources, how much could be treated, and at least some experience could be accumulated in the prevention and control of the plague, so that it would be an accumulation for any aspect. There are benefits to this.

The Republican Army doesn't care about this, because the burden on the Republican Army is smaller than the financial situation of the Han Dynasty in the past, and the Han Army is unlikely to invest more financial resources in this area, because it can't afford it. But the IRA did not have the royal family to pay for this, which saved a considerable amount of money in the fields of health and education. That's progress. It seems that there is a lot of waste, but in fact, the fiscal situation is relatively balanced.

And in Hanoi. One of the two infantry divisions of the Republican Army, and a quick assault to a depth of ninety miles. The follow-up troops are also advancing rapidly.

"Bang. Bang. "The sound of sporadic firearms firing is constantly coming. It was a soldier cleaning up the battlefield. and the pursuit of fleeing enemies.

Cao Ang's company was actively cleaning up the battlefield and then gathering troops. The follow-up troops crossed directly from the battlefield, they were going to advance farther and did not stay for much time in the area where they were fighting. Because they were given the order to go forward, go forward, go on. That's what their governor told them. They had to fight all the way to the Yellow River. That's how brutal war is.

"Our team was intercepted here by local forces. From our interrogation of the captives. These are several local infantry regiments organized by Dong Zhuo in a relatively advanced way. The number is the number of an infantry regiment, but the actual strength is only more than 500 people, most of them are armed with armed bandits in the vicinity, as well as ruffians and hooligans in the county, and their equipment is very poor. Bullying civilians is their greatest combat output, but against a firearms unit like ours, it is completely inadequate. Cao Ang hurried to write down these encounters in his diary. Because they don't have much time. They will soon move forward quickly.

The armed force they encountered was a nearby militia group. The official number is the Fifth Security Regiment of Yewang County. Now, their number has been canceled.

When they returned from a sweep to the outside world. Directly interspersed by the Republican Army. Under the rapid firepower, and without even the use of artillery, they were defeated. At least a few escaped into the nearby forest.

The Republican Army adopted a typical inverted V-shaped offensive formation, encircling some of the opposing side's important forces at once. In such a situation, the other side simply cannot resist.

"The militia who followed us thoroughly understood our tactical invention, and their eyes were extremely shocked, even excited, because they realized it for the first time. The war can still be waged like this. Cao Ang looked at the militiamen and couldn't believe it as he watched the large number of captives surrender with their hands raised. And the military force that was put into operation this time was only an infantry company of the Republican Army. The three rows of inverted characters were unfolded, and after being surrounded by both sides, they quickly closed. Because of the lack of side, only the enemy escaped. But most of the enemy was completely annihilated.

The strength of the security regiment is weak. In contrast, they were not equipped with firearms, just some spears, long knives. There aren't a lot of armor either, but they're quite fierce. In hand-to-hand combat, it may still work, but only if there is a tailwind.

And in the face of the Republican army's tactics, as soon as they came up, they were densely fired, and the attacks on both sides caught the opponent off guard. And quickly carry out a bold encirclement operation. They had never seen this tactic before, and although the number was far less than that of the security regiment, the attack was extremely swift and bold. They had never faced such an opponent before. The results can be imagined.

For the coordination of the Republican attack, the whistle between the trumpeters and the platoon commander became the most important means of communication, and the troops boldly attacked from a distance that could be stretched. This is of great interest to the militias. And the way they are organized has become so primitive and unbearable. They only know how to attack boldly, but they don't know how to cooperate with each other. A swarm of swarms of swarms went up. It looks swift, but it is full of loopholes, and if you boldly counterattack, you will suddenly hit your morale and retreat. Even the retreat turned into a rout.

The militia is learning how to fight, and they have a lot to learn. And the Republican Army officers, non-commissioned officers, patiently taught some knowledge, and then combined with the battle situation on the scene to explain. They study very seriously.

Cao Ang nodded when he saw all this, expressing his approval. It is unlikely that the main forces of the republican army will stop and teach these militias specifically how to fight.

The best way is to get involved in the actual battle, and their regimental commander is also rude, so a part of the militia is organized to follow the battle, so that they can fight together with the Republican Army and feel the atmosphere of war. And in the midst of the war, they were constantly learning, and then they were doing all kinds of research. In this way, in the future they will learn how to fight.

And the militia will not only provide guidance, but also provide more information. The IRA is simply on the path of full advance, attacking the opposing militias, the so-called security groups. As long as you defeat them, things will naturally be much better.

Large-scale offensive operations are underway. And the main goal of the Republican Army at this stage this time is to attack to the banks of the Yellow River, as long as the attack is there, everything will become extremely smooth.

Jingshi, Luoyang.

Dong Zhuo and Li Dao are debating how to deal with the diplomatic pressure of the IRA, and they must get more money to solve the current problem. War is very expensive, and if you don't have enough money, everything will become extremely passive.

So far, Dong Zhuo still has great illusions about dealing with the current crisis, and he believes that as long as he borrows more money again, he can launch an attack. Because the offensive on the front line is in an extremely stalemate situation, at this time, whoever has the last trace of strength to launch a counterattack will be able to stalemate to the end. Dong Zhuo believes he can persevere. Because he saw through the hole cards of the Kwantung coalition army.

The Kwantung coalition was not a monolith, on the contrary, they had a lot of ideas, after extremely brutal battles. The huge casualties made many local governors have the idea of backing down, and they have to do it, which is an extremely beneficial outcome for them. And for Dong Zhuo, it is an opportunity, as long as he defeats the other party once, everything can become better.

Li Dao still didn't say the idea of giving up Luoyang, because it was not yet time. He knew what Dong Zhuo liked, and naturally understood how favorable their situation would be in such a situation. If you give up Luoyang, it means taking the initiative to retreat. In that case, it was a big blow to Dong Zhuo's ambitions.

The war still seems to have some hope to maintain the last bit of decency of Dong Zhuo's ambitions.

But neither Li Dao nor Dong Zhuo expected it. At this time, the Republican Army had already sent troops to Hanoi. They did not react to such important information at all, because many officials did not pay much attention to the situation reported by the locality. Coupled with the procrastination, in such a situation, it is unlikely that Dong Zhuo and Li Dao will know the possibility of the Republican Army sending troops.

And they are still in the fantasy, for Dong Zhuo, it may be the beginning of tragedy. After all, they don't know what is going on in Hanoi.

Outside the Bishui Pass.

The fighting has largely stopped. The warring sides don't seem to want to make even the last bit of a fighting stance. Because it will increase their burden dramatically.

Many of the ammunition in Guo's hands is already being raised. Guo Yan gathered a large amount of ammunition and handed it over to a small number of elite troops to use. There is basically not a single bullet on the front line.

The morale of the Kwantung Coalition Army was very low, and many people were extremely annoyed by the damp and cold environment in the trenches. Their clothes, shoes and socks were wet, and the soldiers were extremely irritable from these diseases. Fighting a war has become a luxury for both sides. Many of them want to move to a clean place in the rear. The entire trench was filled with the foul smell of feces and urine.

This consumption is not just about supplies, but more about patience. The soldiers no longer had so much patience to wait for the fight.

Cao Cao also felt very worried, he was worried that the soldiers would not be able to bear it, so he repeatedly emphasized launching a strong attack.

But Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others objected. And a lot of people don't support it yet. The offensive was delayed. The two sides remain at a stalemate.

That last bit of patience wears off over time, and in such a situation, they are in a very bad situation.
