Chapter 448: Notice

In the distant Great Nanguan, Chen Xujing, who was not good at guarding the city, retired, and the first to replace Chen Xujing was only forty-four years old, the original governor of Jianzhou and the South Road to recruit Huo Da. Hoda's fame was forged by the conquest of barbarians in the southwest and southeast of the mainland, and it can be said that his hands were stained with blood, and he still had expertise in mountain warfare. But the problem is that he has no experience in commanding large mixed forming regiments, lacks the concept of using technical weapons, and also has no experience in guarding the city. According to the DPRK, it is better not to change people than to let this guy go. However, Huoda was not swept away, as soon as he took over the defense of Da Nanguan and the back, he immediately realized that this was not what he was good at, while asking for the opinions of his subordinates, and stepping up some of the things arranged by Chen Xujing, he resigned on the other hand, expressing his concern about his ability. And because of this attitude, Huoda won the hearts of the ministers of the DPRK and China. After that, Huoda was transferred to the commander of Nanzhou, General Pingxi, in addition to the army stationed in Da Nan Pass and the army directly attached to Da Nan Pass, the troops who were stationed in a rather large area after the original attack on Da Nan Pass, and used to guard against Xiling's counterattack and the turmoil in the place where the attack was made, were all handed over to Huo Da to be in charge. Huoda is nominally the deputy of the Great Southern Pass garrison, but in fact, without Huoda's nod in the future, the only thing that the Great Southern Pass garrison can do is to garrison. And the one who took over Huoda's position was the father of Prince Chunnan's guard captain, Liang Xudao, who was fifty-seven years old.

Originally, the crown prince promised a lot of benefits to many people, and only then did he get the position of Da Nanguan garrison into his own hands. In terms of qualifications, although Liang Xudao is slightly inferior to Chen Xujing, he is already quite qualified in terms of years in the army, qualifications, military merits, popularity, command ability and other aspects. But although Liang Xudao successfully took office, he was only a castrated garrison position at Da Nan Pass, and he was no longer the most important heavy army group in Chunnan before, and he was in a pivotal position. Liang Xudao didn't have the vision of Chen Xujing, nor did he have the stability and self-cultivation of Huoda, he didn't communicate with Huoda, and he didn't ask the prince for instructions, so he proudly cut off a smuggling route here in Da Nanguan, which had just begun to recover somewhat. Before he could wait for him to invite credit, the prince's reprimand letter had already arrived. It turned out that the actual operator and beneficiary of this route was precisely this prince. Although he didn't quite understand what it meant to dig the corner of his own country as a prince, Liang Xudao had no choice but to admit that he was unlucky.

However, after such two tosses, the army, which originally had a relatively strong integration under Chen Xujing's deployment, is now divided into two parts: the city pass garrison and the local garrison, and the various government and military affairs involved and the interests of all aspects involved have become more and more entangled. At this time, when Chunnan's own airship team training is completed, which aspect should be assigned to has become the focus of a tangled problem. From the point of view of facilitating the guarding of the city pass, the routine patrol flight of the airship team to the surrounding area can be understood at any time about the concentration of troops on the Xiling side, and there is no danger of being attacked by the Great South Pass. In fact, Huo Da himself had no intention of fighting for the airship team, although he was trying to learn how to use those weapons, and was familiar with the techniques that had been verified by Dongping, Xiling, and Chunnan themselves as effective in large army combat, but the airship was still too much beyond his imagination. Although the airship has a good combat performance now, once everyone's fear of the airship weapon is solved, the chances of the airship with a very low bomb load can achieve similar results are becoming less and less. But Hoda doesn't want to fight much, just because others don't fight. His Royal Highness the Second Prince asked several important figures on his side to reason with the facts, and demonstrated the importance of the air force as a strategic offensive force, and that the airship fleet should be constantly expanded, but it should be kept low-key and mysterious, so that it can deliver a decisive blow at a critical moment, and not as a scattered reconnaissance force, always exposed to the enemy. In those days, the Chunnan court was almost transformed into a military seminar. At this time, the lord of Chunnan had no choice but to summon Chang Hongquan, the king of Juxian, to inquire, and he also hoped more and more that Jiang Yan would return as soon as possible.

The airship team that Chunnan commissioned to train has only mastered some basic links at present, and there is still a long way to go before it can fight. Not to mention that it is not as good as those pilots who were determined to stay in the Dongping Army after two rounds of screening, even if they are flying those civilian flights now, they are much better than them. In fact, who belongs to it now, there is no hurry to discuss it at all, it's just that there has always been a habit of repeatedly arguing about a matter in the Chunnan court, and no one is willing to take the lead in giving in. And this kind of quarrel not only makes many people value the airship team more and more,

At this time, it seemed that after the change of guards in Danan Pass, the atmosphere had changed slightly, and Xiling was preparing to make a move. Some of the already lurking spies began to become active, especially the owners of some of the restaurants, green houses and inns, taking advantage of their access to many people, began to say all kinds of cool things that did not touch the bottom line, affecting the passing travelers and merchants. This area is still a prosperous area in Chunnan, after the occupation, those big families and big businesses in Xiling were expelled, until now, the entire commercial system is still building and developing at a high speed. There were quite a few caravans coming and going, and the effect soon spread.

Xiling will naturally not be satisfied with just spreading some rumors, but is ready to set out to recapture Da Nan Pass. The tug-of-war between the two countries was largely due to the fact that Chunnan had been hiding for too long in order to be secretive, and the troops prepared were not too sufficient, especially the troops that could rush to Da Nan Pass at the first time and solve the problem before Da Nan Pass was reinforced. Xiling is known as a million armorers, and even now, their total strength is far above Dongping. If it was before, the army with obvious family traces organized by the major families, after experiencing the baptism of several major wars with Dongping and realizing its disadvantages, had the strength to catch up, and there were many armies, and their combat power was more than one cut higher than before. And aware that the Dongping army is completely state-owned, it can be quickly and secretly mobilized, and it is not necessary to be like the army formed by various clans, and it is inevitable that relatives and friends will leak the news when it is transferred, and over the years, Xiling has also trained an elite division of about 100,000 people through various methods. After a few years of recuperation, the current Xiling finally feels that he can make a difference, and compared to Dongping, Chunnan is obviously a better choice to try the knife.

The northern battalion that Xiling originally formed in Zhongzhou is now empty. When they first found out about this, the spies of the Intelligence Bureau stood on end, and they didn't hear any news beforehand. But then their pursuit was fruitful, and they soon discovered that the northern battalion had actually moved to the south, repaired for two days in a valley south of Anqing, and then continued south...... Xiling is ready to use troops against Chunnan, which is self-explanatory. And the goal is even clearer, where else can you go except Da Nan Pass? Without Da Nan in his hands, now that Xi Ling wants to attack Chunnan, he has no choice at all.

After having this understanding, the spies of the Intelligence Bureau increased the intensity of the sentry, and at this time, as the deepest secret of the Intelligence Bureau, Sun Boping also came with key news. Although the Intelligence Bureau did not dare to use this clue more, the help that could be provided at such a critical moment was immeasurable. Sun Boping confirmed that the household department and the military department had used a lot of secret resources, especially the many industries under the name of the Xiling royal family. This time, several mountain villas of the royal family in the south were actually used to temporarily station troops, which was an unprecedented situation. And the provisions used to feed the army even have the stored food, ordnance and medicine in the royal treasury. In order to recapture the Great South Pass in one fell swoop, the total number of troops mobilized was as high as 550,000, including about 50,000 special troops formed by Xiling modeled after Dongping's heavy equipment and heavy infantry units. The cost of this part of the army alone is a rather frightening figure every day. Among them, about 150,000 troops were used to feint against Xunshan Pass, creating the illusion that Xiling was preparing to attack Dongping in the east. What kind of cost is that? The cost of running the 550,000 army at full strength for three months will account for more than half of Xiling's entire military expenditure. Of course, this time it is not only to prepare for the attack on Da Nanguan, but also to rebuild the prestige of the Xiling royal family. Over the years, they have been beaten miserably, losing the Zhenbei Military Division, losing the Da Nan Pass, and instead of beating the Xunshan Pass, they were annihilated a large part, and the losses were too heavy. The performance of those so-and-so battalions of various families is really unsatisfactory. If this time, with the army formed by the Xiling Imperial Court itself as the core, the attack on Da Nanguan is successful, then in the future, the further reorganization of the soldiers of various generations will be more and more confident, and the morale of the Xiling court and the opposition will inevitably be boosted.

When the detailed situation report was delivered to Tan Xiaopei, the intelligence bureau's thinkers rarely did not attach their own measurements. There is no doubt that those thinkers of the Intelligence Bureau are all brilliant people, but they are indeed not good at moral articles, but are good at planning and designing intrigues, although they know that Tan Xiaopei has been wary of Chunnan, but Chunnan is the current ally after all. Whether this kind of news should be disclosed to Chunnan and let them be prepared, everyone is disagreeable, but in general, the think tank of the Intelligence Bureau is inclined to Xiling to defeat the Great South Pass, which is more beneficial to Dongping.

After Ye Tao also read the information, Tan Xiaopei asked, "How?" ”

Ye Tao shrugged his shoulders, looked indifferent, and said, "Tong Bingwen actually came out again." This old man is really energetic. However, as long as the enemy is not underestimated, this battle is likely to be fruitful. ”

Tan Xiaopei smiled, in his opinion, it doesn't matter if the result is not fruitful, Xiling and Chunnan fought to the death, both bleed, and it didn't hurt Dongping. He smiled and ordered: "Let Danyang quietly spread the news that Chunnan already has an airship team." Arrange it wisely, don't let anyone see through it. Then, let Nie Rui grasp the time and notify the ...... before Xiling's attack Don't miss the courtesy. Also, remember to let Chunnan's airship team catch up with this big battle. ”
