In the winter of the ninth year of Jianxing, the first day of December, the night. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The season is Yuanchen, the cold wind is howling, and the snow is falling.

The Great Liang envoy Zhijie, the general of Pingxi, and the state pastor Zhang Mao, secretly ordered the general of Zhendong to march to the army of the army and the military general Han Pu to attack Han, the purpose of this battle is to strike first, quickly decide, and occupy the land of Qinzhou with Longxi and Nan'an counties as much as possible.

General Fujun, Wuwei Taishou, and Bacheng Marquis Zhang Jun went out with the army as a praise painting, and in the eyes of all the soldiers, this was a gilded journey of their young master.

Xu was worried about Zhang Jun's safety, and Zhang Mao allowed him to bring his troops into the camp. Zhang Jun was not polite, and sent eight of the eleven subordinates in his mansion and Hu Shuo to listen to them, and the other three were responsible for the defense of the Hou Mansion.

On the school grounds, torches wrapped in pine oil burned brightly, lighting up the surroundings as if it were daytime. Five thousand cavalry soldiers put on helmets and armor, led war horses, and lined up in front. Behind them were thousands of wagons, neatly arranged.

At the front, on the temporary worship platform, a not grand but very solemn worship ceremony is being held.

Zhang Mao was wearing gold armor, and his hair was meticulously tied behind his head and hairpinned into a hoop. Opposite him, the general of the Protector Army, Han Pu, was dressed in silver armor and stood with his hands down. I only heard Zhang Mao say: "This expedition is related to the rise and fall of Daliang, and if it is successful, I can show my ambition to the east; Defeat will shake the country's foundation, and the society will be overturned. General Wanwang thought of millions of soldiers and civilians in Liangzhou and defeated the enemy. When the general returns triumphantly, I will personally lead the civil and military forces to welcome the army in the suburbs! ”

Han Pu was moved, knelt down and said: "Please rest assured that the general's trip will definitely live up to the general's expectations." ”

"Good, good, good!" Zhang Mao said excitedly: "Then I wish the general a victory, and the horse will be successful!" After that, as soon as he stretched out his hand, a guard presented a small box, Zhang Mao took it, opened it carefully, and saw a bronze sleeping tiger cut in half lying inside.

Zhang Mao took it out and handed it over to Han Pu. Han Pu took it carefully, took half of it out of his arms, and the two tigers were together, tightly fitting.

Zhang Mao nodded and stepped aside. Han Pu got up, came to the front of the stage, held up the complete tiger talisman, and said loudly: "On the order of the general, the cavalry army will set off!" ”

"Yes!" 5,000 soldiers received the order, and slowly set out in the team, followed by heavy wagons, and men and horses followed one after another, forming a huge dragon.

"Jun'er!" Zhang Mao watched the military column slowly come out and beckoned to the firelight in the distance.

In a moment, Lang Jun, a young man who was also dressed in golden light armor, walked over quickly, it was Zhang Jun.

"General!" Zhang Jun came to Zhang Mao's side, hugged his fists and said: "Forgive my nephew for being in armor, I can't give full courtesy!" ”

Zhang Mao looked the young man in front of him up and down, and his eyes were full of tears and red eyes. He tightened his waist for Zhang Jun, and carefully checked the armament for his nephew, and thousands of emotions welled up in his heart.

He sighed, stabilized his emotions, put Zhang Jun's shoulder, and said, "It would be great if the eldest brother could see Jun'er's appearance today." ”

Countless memories were instantly intertwined in his heart, and Zhang Jun said with tears: "Father, yes has a spirit in the sky, and he must have seen it." ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Mao nodded, and said solemnly: "On this expedition, everything must obey the military order, if you disobey, even your uncle will not be able to save you, do you know!" ”

"Nephew knows!" Zhang Jun paused and said, "Uncle rest assured, my nephew will obey the orders of General Han Hujun." ”

"Go ahead・・・・・・" Zhang Mao waved his hand.

But when he saw Zhang Jun turn around and leave, he couldn't help but say, "Pay attention to safety・・・・・・"

Zhang Jun turned around, bowed solemnly, turned over his horse, and followed the team away.

"General." At this time, Han Pu also urged the horse to come, hugged his fists and said: "General, the last general has also gone!" ”

Zhang Mao nodded and said, "Go!" ”

"Yes!" Han Pu got the order, turned the horse's head, and galloped away.

"The whole army is speeding up!"

"The whole army is speeding up!"

A horse heralded the order colonel waved the order flag and urged loudly, and Zhang Jun also followed closely with the guards. Suddenly, a familiar crimson flashed into his eyes, and he turned his head sharply to look, it was Niannu!

I saw that she was also dressed in a military uniform, covered with a crimson cloak, with a delicate scarf wrapped around her chest, sitting quietly on horseback, watching the army march.

Zhang Jun couldn't shout, so he could only twist his head, keep looking at his sister, and then slowly disappear from sight.

"My sister must have come to see me off, I don't know if she saw me." Zhang Jun thought in his heart, the horse did not stop, and soon went out of the city gate and headed east.

In order to hide people's eyes, the only swift cavalry on this trip set out from the military camp in the city. As for the planned 3,000 infantry army, it will be supplemented with its government army after reaching Guangwu County on the eastern border.

The government army of Liangzhou is composed of world soldiers, conscripts and conscripts. Among them, the world soldiers are the backbone, and the conscripts and conscripts are supplements. At the same time, these three also represent three different military service systems that have been popular since the Three Kingdoms.

During the Three Kingdoms period, the most prevalent was the Shibing system, which was the main source of the army. Its characteristic lies in the separation of soldiers and civilians, that is, the soldiers are separately registered, which is distinguished from ordinary households, and people at the time called "soldier registration". Of course, this "soldier" is not the "soldier" of the scholar clan, but the soldier's taxi, and there are also those who call it "military status", in order to facilitate the understanding of readers, the author will use "military status" in the future.

These soldiers have been soldiers for generations, and not only have a lowly status, but also have no personal freedom, and they cannot change their status as soldiers without being exempted. Therefore, under the world military system, since the main source of the army is the school-age strong men of the soldiers, in order to ensure the number of the army, it is necessary to recruit as many children as possible.

Historically, when Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty launched a large-scale crusade against Eastern Wu, he issued an edict requiring "two dings and three dings to take one person, four dings to take two people, and six or more three people." It is limited to 17 years or more, and it will be returned to 50. The first to take the wife ・・・・・・" But the actual situation is not only that, not only sometimes the soldiers have to include the family of only children, but also the age limit will exceed the limit of the edict. After Emperor Wu of Jin pacified Eastern Wu, he ordered those who were over 60 years old to return to their homes.

Liangzhou completely inherited the military service system of the Western Jin Dynasty, and the troops led by Zhang Jun were the products of the world military system. However, with the flight of a large number of world soldiers and the attrition of the world soldiers due to frequent wars, the world soldiers alone are absolutely not enough to cope with the troubled times. Therefore, the conscription system and the conscription system came into being.

In fact, conscription is the strongest military force of each separatist regime, because conscripts do not produce and practice day and night, and they are a group that specializes in warfare. They either serve as generals or mercenaries to fight between various forces, and they cannot do it unless they are brave and skilled in martial arts.

As for conscription, it is actually the conscription of ordinary people as soldiers. Although this system has the longest history, its combat effectiveness is really not flattering, because the people have not received military training, and after being thrown into the battlefield, they will be reduced to cannon fodder, which is very miserable.

The official who cooperated with the operation this time was the commander of Guangwu County, who had been stationed on the eastern border for a long time, and it stands to reason that he should be quite combat-effective. Zhang Jun thought as he walked, this operation was very important to Da Liang and himself, but don't meet your pig teammates!

After a night of rapid marching, the army rushed to Cangsong at dawn, and further on, it was about to enter the territory of Guangwu County.

Han Pu ordered the whole army to rest for an hour, and just when Zhang Jun had just dismounted, a scout suddenly came to report.

"Major General, there is someone in front who wants to join the army, and he said that it is your subordinate, and the general ordered you to go to the big tent."

"I'll be there then."

After sending away the scouts, Zhang Jun handed over his mount to the subordinates to take care of, and he walked quickly towards the big tent of the Chinese army.

I guess they've arrived.
