State, from the pre-Qin time is a rich land, the pre-Qin is from the Ba giving, swept the six countries, completed the unprecedented unification of the hegemony, and to the Han Dynasty, Yizhou is still the world's largest state, and to the Great Qin after the founding of the country, due to the Taizu Emperor's attention to the road, the pre-Qin Shi Huang period built into Shu Chi Road was expanded again, and the dug Grand Canal together to make Yizhou's traffic more convenient. However, the mountainous areas west of Yizhou are still difficult to navigate, and after crossing these mountains at an increasing altitude, you will enter the Qinghai Plateau, which is a wild place in the eyes of most people in Daqin.

It was June at this time, but because the whole world was in the Xiaoice River period at this time, plus the army was marching in the mountains, although it was hot summer, there was no trace of heat. However, the mountain roads in Yizhou are rugged, and the further you go, the closer you get to the plateau, so although the 50,000 troops selected by Li Ang are the elite of the various legions of Great Qin, the speed of the march is not fast.

In the end, Li Ang marched in the mountains for two months with an army of 50,000 before bringing all the heavy equipment and other materials into the plateau, but the loss of grain and grass along the way was also quite large, and the officer corps under Li Ang's command carefully calculated that the grain and grass brought into the plateau minus various consumptions could probably support them to fight for three months to four months, but for the calculations of these staff officers and officers under his command, Li Ang did not agree: the Daqin Army was accustomed to regular combat, and the military discipline was strict, For them, looting has long been forgotten.

"Those who make good use of the soldiers, no longer serve in the army, and the food is not three years; It is used for the country, because the food is for the enemy, so the military food can be sufficient. Have you forgotten what your grandson said? Li Ang looked at the officers and staff officers of the various armies in the tent, and said coldly, the current Great Qin Army has relied too much on powerful logistics. He must bring them back to all the consciousness of the Great Qin Legion that invaded like fire thirty years ago.

Listening to Li Ang's words, the officers and staff officers present were stunned for a moment, and then they understood, at this time, these officers and staff officers who were in their prime understood the gap between themselves and Li Ang, although the troops under their command were all tempered and elite. But after all, they haven't been on the battlefield much, they have killed people and seen blood, and compared to Li Ang, who almost came out of the pile of dead people, their murderous intent is not strong enough.

"This time I am fighting in an enemy country, and in addition to not committing adultery and killing indiscriminately, I have decided to relax the rule of not plundering." The military Santie mentioned by Li Ang was the military rule that Emperor Taizu had implemented throughout the Great Qin Army since his Western Expedition, but for now he had to temporarily relax this military rule of not looting.

Soon the officers and staff officers of the armies dispersed. Only Liu Yu, Chen Baxian and a few others were left in the huge handsome tent. "Father-in-law, the scout team is ready to go." After Li Cunzhi and the others withdrew from the big tent, they replied to Li Ang.

"This time, your scouts are the key." looked at Li Cunzhi, who was becoming more and more calm. Li Ang nodded, and then he looked at Chen Baxian and Liu Yudao. "How about you pick the elf, can you go right away?" For Leon, the biggest problem in the direct assault on the city was the route of the march and the concealment of the army.

"Yes, sir." Liu Yu and Chen Baxian replied almost at the same time that they had arrived in Yizhou two months earlier than Li Ang. As soon as he came, he took his officers and staff officers to select men and horses in the various teams that arrived one after another. In the end, two elite mixed brigades were selected and placed under their command, each of which was equipped with two heavy tiger and leopard cavalry battalions. Four lightly armed battalions of the Black Cavalry, three infantry battalions.

"Okay, you will set off tomorrow, and all the tribes within a radius of five hundred miles will not be spared, and those who resist will be killed." Li Ang looked at the confidant general in the tent, his face was cold and handsome, and the murderous aura in his voice was chilling.

"Whoa!" Shouting loudly, Liu Yu and the others withdrew from the tent, the army has just arrived on the plateau, it will take some time to adapt, and the news must not be leaked during this time, so that the Tubo people know, so that they can prepare in advance. And they wanted to restrain the tribes stationed in the area first, so that they could not spread the news to the city, but they only had more than 2,000 men and horses on hand, and the burden on their shoulders was not heavy.

Seeing a few people leaving, Li Ang sat in the handsome chair with a solemn face, this was the first time he led the army to the battle, but he could no longer charge into battle in person like before, and capture the flag, he couldn't help but feel a little unaccustomed. Looking at the candle flame on the ground, Li Ang found that he couldn't sleep like this, and couldn't help but read the military book to calm his somewhat disordered mood.

The night was already dark, but the soldiers in the barracks from the elite troops of the Great Qin Prefecture could not sleep peacefully, the climate on the plateau made them extremely uncomfortable, especially for the heavily armed tiger and leopard knights from the Beiting Prefecture, the thin air on the plateau was quite unfavorable for them, and the heavy armor they usually wore felt much heavier than usual here. Of the 50,000 soldiers, only the light infantry from the Jinling Prefecture fared slightly better, most of them came from the hills and mountains of the south, and their usual training was different from that of the strength-based tiger and leopard cavalry, so the situation was better than the others.

After a long night, in the gray sky, Li Cunzhi took his own scout troops out of the camp, divided into several teams and headed towards the plateau ahead, not long after they left the camp, Liu Yu and Chen Baxian took the selected two elite mixed brigades, divided into two directions to follow the scouts out of the camp.

After the day was completely dawn, the troops in the large camp began to practice, they did not have much time, the sooner they adapted to the climate of the plateau, the more certain the next battle would be, every officer with the troops knew this, but they were not in a hurry, after entering the plateau, Li Ang had already asked those Yizhou Langzhong who accompanied the army to explain to them the places to pay attention to on the plateau.

Li Ang was not idle, he began to patrol the entire battalion to understand the characteristics of each army, although he now commanded all the elite troops from Great Qin, but they were not a whole, and this was exactly what he cared about.

Among the 50,000 troops, the tiger and leopard cavalry and the infantry army from the Jinling Metropolitan Protectorate, Li Ang is not too worried, after all, he himself started from the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate, and his reputation in the Northern Army is not low, plus he is familiar with the five tiger gods of the Beiting, and the 10,000 heavily armed tigers and leopards who came this time

is more convincing to him, and the infantry of the Jinling Metropolitan Protectorate is because of Ran Mindi's respect, you must know that in the Jinling Metropolitan Protectorate, although Ran Min is just a commander, but the name of the Southern Soldier Martial God is like thunder, and no one is unconvinced. And for Li Ang, who can make a draw with Ran Min, they naturally have nothing to say.

The only thing that makes Li Ang have to worry about it is the Black Cavalry, as the elite army of the Gongwei Imperial Capital, the Black Cavalry has a glorious history, and this army has slowly begun to become aristocratic since the time of Emperor Taizong, most of the soldiers of the Black Cavalry are from military families, and the military exploits of their ancestors make them more eager for glory than ordinary soldiers. On the battlefield, the Black Cavalry is more fearless and fierce than any unit of the Great Qin Legion, but in the same way, the Black Cavalry is also notoriously unruly, and in the past it was able to command the Black Cavalry. They are all famous figures in the military history of Daqin.

Thinking of those Black Cavalry officers, Leon shook his head. Although the officers seemed to have a lot of respect for him at the previous military meetings, in fact they were only polite, although by the nature of the soldiers, they would not disobey his orders, but to Leon. That's not enough.

Suddenly, there was a commotion ahead. Li Ang couldn't help frowning, and said to Li Cunxiao beside him, "Go and take a look." What's going on, so noisy? ”

"Yes, father-in-law." In response, Li Cunxiao had already taken Li Angdi's own soldiers to the place where the noise in front came from. When they arrived, they only saw two sergeants scuffling together, and behind them were two groups of sergeants, glaring at each other angrily, scolding not to be outdone.

Li Cunxiao, who heard some reasons from the scolding, couldn't help frowning, and he immediately went back to report the incident to Li Angyu, it turned out that when a battalion-level team in the Black Cavalry Army returned to the camp tent, he happened to meet an infantry army in the Jinling Metropolitan Protectorate that was still practicing, and the captain of the Black Cavalry Army said something on the side. It's usual', but the captain of the infantry army listened to it correctly, as the saying goes, the southern soldiers are aggressive, but what he said is not wrong at all, the captain of the infantry army does not talk nonsense, and he directly wants to fight with the captain of the black cavalry army to see who is more' Usual', and this black cavalry army has always been unruly, in the four major capitals of Great Qin, the only thing that can let them take a straight look is the tiger and leopard cavalry and dragoon army except for the other two of the three major cavalry armies with the same name as them, and the others have always been ignored, seeing that the captain of the infantry army provoked, the captain of the black cavalry army naturally would not avoid the battle, and after the two restrained their respective subordinates, they started fighting with their fists and feet.

"It's kind of a brain." Hearing that these two lieutenants were fighting only after restraining their subordinates from interfering, Li Ang couldn't help but mutter, and then said to Li Cunxiao, "Go back to the camp." Hearing that Li Ang actually ignored the two captains who were fighting, Li Cunxiao couldn't help but be stunned, he originally thought that his father-in-law would take advantage of this opportunity to establish his authority, but he didn't expect to let it go and go back to the tent directly.

"Father-in-law, do you leave them alone?" Li Cunxiao looked at the noisy place not far away, turned back to Li Ang and asked, he didn't know what his father-in-law was thinking, and he turned a blind eye to this kind of private fight that was obviously a violation of military regulations.

"What is going to come will always come, and it's better to break out now than later." Glancing at the two parties who were scolding themselves, Li Ang smiled at Li Cunxiao, "Let's go back to the camp and see how the two sides deal with this matter when the time comes." While speaking, Li Ang had already turned around, but met Huang Yuan, who had received a report from the soldiers below.

"Your Excellency, you?" Seeing Li Ang, Huang Yuan glanced at the still noisy place in the distance, with a puzzled face, as the chief officer of the Military Justice Department, he would have to punish him when he encountered this kind of violation of military regulations, but now Li Ang, the boss, actually ignored this kind of thing, which really made him puzzled.

"Go back first, you don't care about this matter, let them decide the winner by themselves." Glancing at Huang Yuan, Li Ang commanded, he was about to use this matter to polish the edges and corners of the Black Cavalry, and he would not let Huang Yuan stop the two captains who were fighting. Huang Yuan's mind was delicate, and after just a little thought, he understood what Li Ang meant, so he didn't say a word, and went back with the subordinates of the Military Justice Department under his command.

After Li Ang and the others went back, the two captains who fought gradually became superior, to say that the captain of the black cavalry army was also a person who had worked hard, but although the black cavalry was capable of horse combat and foot combat, it was still worse than the infantry army that mainly focused on hand-to-hand combat, and the captain of the black cavalry army was not like the captain of the infantry army who had adapted to the plateau, and he had suffered a loss when fighting, so he fell behind.

After a few more rounds between the two, the captain of the black cavalry army finally found a flaw by the captain of the infantry army, knocked him to the ground, and was defeated. "I don't know who is more ordinary." The captain of the infantry army threw down such a sentence and left with his subordinates. "Stop me." Seeing that his subordinates were about to catch up and fight, the captain of the black cavalry got up from the ground and shouted.

"Captain?" Seeing that their own lieutenant shouted to stop them, those soldiers were full of unwillingness. "Enough, I don't want to be said by others that I can't afford to lose, and I have to rely on my hands to save face." The captain of the black cavalry patted the ashes on his body, but said in a deep voice, the captain of the infantry army can defeat him, and he can be regarded as a capable person, although the black cavalry is rebellious, but he is not narrow-minded.

At night, this matter had spread in the camp, and the Black Cavalry, those officers were naturally not angry, and they wanted to save face, but they were afraid of the commander Li Ang, but who knew that this private fight didn't seem to make the commander care at all, and even the military justice department did not move. For such an anomaly, those senior officers in the battalion also guessed what Li Ang meant, and the family officers in the black cavalry who could achieve high positions, which one of them was a fuel-efficient lamp, and they were people who did not know the overall situation, so they were all in step with Li Ang and let the people below make trouble.

Hearing Li Cunxiao reply that it was the officers of the Black Cavalry Army who went to the infantry barracks to learn martial arts with the masters of the infantry army, Li Ang smiled, and he stood up from the handsome chair, "Let's go, go and see the excitement." After speaking, he had already strode out of the camp tent, Li Cunxiao was stunned, and immediately followed with his own army.
