Chapter 69: The Inscription Camp (2)

In just a moment, the blue wolf detachment and the inscription battalion led by the detachment leader Leng Xiao all rushed into the mountains and forests, and Zhang Yi and the family managers quietly waited for the results at the bottom of the mountain.

Only five minutes passed, and four or five soldiers of the inscription battalion slipped out from the mountains and forests not far away, shirtless and with their heads drooping.

Zhang Feng glared at them fiercely, and said angrily in a low voice: "Get out, useless thing!" ”

Several soldiers were ashamed, did not dare to respond, and lowered their heads to the side.

Immediately afterwards, one after another, the soldiers of the inscription battalion came out of the mountains and forests in groups of three shirtless, and the five groups came out of the mountains and forests, their faces flushed. In just one hour, more than eighty soldiers of the inscription battalion have come out, and none of the blue wolves have appeared.

Zhang Feng and the other pipe bands of the inscription battalion gasped, what kind of monster is this, the combat effectiveness is so strong, although Zhang Feng's men and horses are not many, the combat effectiveness of the inscription battalion is the strongest, Zhang Feng is also the most senior in the inscription battalion, and his combat achievements are impressive, compared to a battle, he was beaten so miserably, the most strange thing is that these soldiers don't even have any injuries on their bodies, and it's even like they haven't fought.

Zhang Feng pulled a soldier over and asked angrily: "******, tell Lao Tzu clearly, how did you fight?" There are so many people, and even dozens of people can't be contained! ”

The soldier said bitterly: "My lord, this is really not to blame the little ones, this group of blue wolves is too difficult to deal with, we can't lock their bodies at all, often, before we find the human figure, we have been resisted by them with daggers, they almost don't walk on the ground, all hide in the bushes and trees, never face the enemy head-on, specifically sneak attack ......"

Zhang Feng was dumbfounded for a while, it was useless to be in a hurry now, since the competition had begun, he could only wait for the results to come out.

Before dusk, the inscription battalion of more than 400 people had come out of the mountains and forests one after another, and more than 400 people had already come out, and there were only forty or fifty people inside.

Zhang Feng felt a burst of despair in his heart, there was no play, he was doomed, he was lost, this face was lost!

Zhang Feng gritted his teeth, came to Zhang Yi, and said: "Chief Teacher, Zhang Feng has only served Lao Futai alone in his life, you are the second, Zhang Feng is ashamed of himself, I used to sit in the well and watch the sky, I Zhang Feng is a talker, in the future, the four thousand people in this inscription battalion, all of them will listen to you, I just ask you to really treat our brothers like wolves, don't let us smear Lao Futai in the war!" ”

Zhang Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, Zhang Guandao, everyone, the inscription camp is the hard work of Lao Futai back then, and my brothers originally admired it, you and I are both the people of the Qing Dynasty, both are a family of the Huai Army, and we should be close, Zhang Yi's language was too radical before, please don't be surprised, this battle is about the fortunes of the Qing Dynasty, about the common people of China, we as soldiers, it is our duty to protect the family and defend the country, we can't let the people who worked hard to pay for my military expenses poke our backbone!" The soldiers of the Qing Dynasty also have blood, and we must let the Japanese soldiers know that those who commit strong men will be punished even if they are far away! ”

Zhang Feng applauded: "Well said! Let's follow Lao Futai to conquer the south and the north, for what is not for the fathers and villagers to live a peaceful life, so it is decided, all the training matters of the inscription camp, we will listen to you, if someone makes trouble, just talk to us with a few pipe tapes! ”

This battle made the pipes of the inscription battalion really look at Zhang Yi with admiration, and the descendants brought out by Liu Mingchuan are all empty-eyed characters, and they are only convinced that their ability is higher than their own. Zhang Yi's blue wolf broke fifty and five hundred, and he was not injured, which made these people sincerely respect.

"That's right! Right! We all listen to you, but Master Teach Xi, you have to give us all your unique skills, and you can't distinguish between far and near! The other pipe bands next to him also responded.

Since then, the inscription battalion has not done trouble and disobeyed the call, after all, it is Liu Mingchuan's descendant, that pride and blood have always been buried in their hearts, never disappeared, but the comfortable life for many years has made them send training, plus a group of veterans are old, newcomers have been added, and they have not seen blood, which has led to a decline in combat effectiveness. Zhang Yi believed that the combat strength of this group of soldiers would be no less than that of Zuo's precious troops.

At the same time, domestic supplies were being delivered to North Korea in a steady stream, and the last time Ding Ruchang sent people to escort Oshima Yoshimasa and other prisoners of war back to Beijing, Zhang Yi directly brought back the drawings of mortars and the drawings of the improved process of grenades to China and handed them over to Li Hongzhang, asking Li Hongzhang to seize the time to develop and produce them, and to keep them strictly secret. With the current level of development and production of major domestic manufacturing bureaus, it is not difficult to manufacture mortars and grenades with a low level of science and technology, but these technicians are a little rigid in their minds and lack the stimulation of new things. Within a month, the first batch of improved grenades produced by the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau was delivered, while only seven or eight prototype mortars were produced, and more than 200 shells were manufactured, which were delivered together, and a large number of mortars were being intensified.

Now that he is fully armed, Nie Shicheng is in high spirits, and he is not worried, discussing the battle situation with the generals every day, discussing offensive and defensive strategies, and waiting for the comeback of the Japanese army.

For more than a month, Zhang Yi's blue wolf continuously sent information about the Japanese army in the direction of Seoul to Kaesong. During this period, there were also some Korean natives who delivered information to the Japanese army, but they were discovered by Zhang Yi's blue wolf, Zhang Yi remained quiet, deployed the blue wolf, and suddenly carried out a surprise attack on several pro-Japanese Kaesong landlords, capturing the Japanese intelligence officers and pro-Japanese elements in one fell swoop, and at the same time cutting off the strongholds of the Japanese intelligence system one by one, in order to make these natives have a long memory. Zhang Yi went on a killing spree and directly executed these pro-Japanese landlords, while his relatives and servants were all exiled to the bitter Heilongjiang, where their property was confiscated.

At the same time, Zhang Yi did not dare to be careless, and directly transferred Mo Ru out, led a part of the team, and was responsible for intelligence collection and counter-reconnaissance against Japan on a full-time basis, and gave Mo Ru the privilege of directly arresting people, as long as he had a certain amount of evidence, whether it was true or not, he would first detain all of them and interrogate them strictly. For a time, all the officials and clans of Kaesong Korea talked about Zhang's color change, and the title of Hades King Zhang spread from within the Qing army to Kaesong.

In the blink of an eye, the time has entered September, and the Japanese troops in the direction of Seoul have been intensively mobilized, and the military movements have become more and more obvious, and now there are more than 30,000 Japanese troops stationed in Korea. Zhang Yi and Nie Shicheng looked at the information sent back by the blue wolf, and frowned, the big war is imminent, how to ensure that the battle is won, it is indeed quite difficult to think.
