Hebei, in a hanging fortress on the Cangzhou front.

Brother Pengju, the military envoy of Benzhou, who had just completed the military inspection, was eating a military-style lunch with most of the remaining soldiers on the edge of the barricade, and the sound of snoring and snoring was incessant for a while.

In the stoneware bowl of the primary color, there are wide-sided buckwheat brown strips with alkaline heads, sprinkled with self-planted broken celery and green onions, fried eggplant strips and melon slices, and the only meat color during the embellishment period is a fried whale meat foam with a white texture, or a large piece of dark pink substitute meat, a few pieces of black **, hanging wax.

Then pour a large spoonful of fermented fish paste and boil the miso soup, which is a daily soup cake meal with soup and water, meat and vegetables.

As the status and privilege of a metropolitan supervisor and a local guard, he just has one more charred apricot fish than others, and half a jar of sweet tea soup for gargling, and even the canned fruit he brought is opened for no one to get a thin slice.

But he still ate like most of the soldiers, and he was drenched in sweat, and in the end there was not much left of the soup, and the fish bones were chewed into slag and swallowed carefully, and there was no waste at all.

After eating and wiping it clean, he took out a handful of salted and fried crispy peas from the bag he carried with him, which was just a snack when he was idle and thinking about things.

Unconsciously, he has been in this position for more than three years, but it makes people feel that a long time has passed, and many great new feelings have happened and witnessed. He also went from being a jerky and suffering from gains and losses, to becoming more and more capable, old and wealthy by his military career.

Although since the opening up of Yanbian in Cangzhou, this Cangzhou army, which has only 7,000 personnel and a complete range of types, has been built by him with his own distinctive characteristics; But if he had the opportunity, he still imagined that the other Yanbian garrison soldiers and horses would command the main battle battalion of one or several battalions, and become a mobile field battle sequence for the deterrent side; Instead of these half-full-time local armies between the second-line garrisons and the state and county garrisons, the chaos and generals who continue to fight at a high level will continue.

But after staying here for two years, he seems to have gradually been ignored and forgotten, and basically disappeared from the eyes of the upper echelons of Huaizhen; It's like the lucky person who got the green eyes of the young town handsome, and personally arranged the marriage for him, and entrusted him with the opportunity to take charge of himself, as a short-lived hot topic and topic at that time, it was short-lived and then disappeared from everyone.

Over the years, he has fought a lot of big salaries, and he has accumulated a lot of achievements in breaking the enemy, but compared with the achievements of Huaizhen's tenacity and development in other directions, it is really a little lackluster and not worth mentioning;

During this period, one of the few good news was that the chain business of the market handled by his wife Li Wa became bigger and more prosperous, absorbing and resettling many military dependents and survivors, and with the virtuous means of being good at running a family and running a business, it was heard of in the upper circles;

Even a few months ago, he was unusually invited to join a certain upper-class charity association in the name of protecting women and children, and had the opportunity to meet a certain lady in the handsome back house, and happily planned to continue on this path. In this regard, he only smiled and sincerely encouraged and praised, instead of worrying about his wife overpowering him, or a husband who sent a message to climb the high-level door, and was entangled in the gains and losses.

And for those who have been following him since the beginning of Dugi Province, he has also tried his best to release them one by one through the reasons of guarantee, promotion and Jian Ren, and embark on a better future and future, and then build more new people from his side to take on the corresponding position.

Therefore, the generals he is now with him are generally a little too young, and some of them are even young soldiers who have been allocated by the joint school to walk and obey.

"Both."

A messenger sped in through the doorway and appeared on the rampart.

"A military order from Youzhou."

"Okay, we can finally move."

Suddenly, the lazy and unruly old soldier seemed to have changed into a different person.

"This body has to grow flesh and bones, and it can finally be worn off."

"Where are you going to be a soldier this time?"

A familiar subordinate immediately asked.

"The Metropolitan Governor's Mansion has an order, let me wait for the sword to point at Jizhou."

Brother Peng Ju couldn't help but have some confidence and expectation on his face.

"Let's ask the length of Hebei."

"Troops, follow me across the river first."

Then swing his sword and point into the distance, winding across the sparkling river.

"Cross the river."

"Cross the river. River.. ”

The left and right couldn't help but shout in unison. Then, with the heralds rushing from the state city to various fortresses and forts, as well as the shaking and flashing wrench signal towers, the entire Cangzhou territory was boiling as if it had been beaten with chicken blood.

After all, for these soldiers who are guarding the front line of Yanbian in Hebei, under the cultivation and warfare system of Huaizhen's current division and pre-Qin, large-scale warfare also means more credit and resource tilt and investment; Moreover, the combat exploits of taking the initiative to attack and conquer cities and territories are obviously higher than the daily conflicts and confrontations of defending the territory and protecting the territory, and even sending troops to plunder the enemy's territory from time to time and call the little brother who is actively defending.

After all, as a relatively calm rear and flank battlefield, just hearing about the good news coming from the north one after another, and looking at the continuous escort of prisoners and booty on the road, this made these local soldiers in Hebei who were responsible for defending the territory couldn't help but feel like a cat's scratch, and they couldn't wait to jump out of the enemy with enough weight in front of them.

Now, since they have this clear strategic goal, it also means that the Yue soldier envoy they trust is likely to take advantage of this merit and status; Under the command of the Grand Governor, he is located in the fourth sequence of the leading officers, becoming a new addition to the six Metropolitan Commanders/Commanders, and the rising tide brings their future and opportunities.

After all, for these martial artists with limited knowledge and literacy, compared with the local officials who have complicated affairs and follow the steps step by step, the various hardships and transfer roads of chronic achievements are still faster and more neat to fight in the army to gain fame.

As for the name of Zhang Bangchang, the governor of Hebei Province who is about to deal with him, who claims to have 200,000 troops in more than a dozen states, he has not been taken seriously by many people;

After all, this Governor Zhang's achievements and performance before this are really unflattering, with a huge chassis, population, and army, and even the remnants of the Northern Dynasty in Pinglu Road who are still alive cannot win;

And although they are only a corner of Cangzhou, where there are no more than 10,000 soldiers, but what stands behind them is the support and cooperation of Huaizhen, the first strong army in the north that spans several roads and thousands of miles of land...

Moreover, since Huaizhen has decided to use troops against Hebei after the first Pinglu Road, then his Cangzhou soldiers with strong local colors are likely to play the role of a pioneer, and the main event is still to come. But in any case, this is an opportunity and a future that most of them are extremely looking forward to and waiting for.

For the local households in Cangzhou who have been subordinated to Cangzhou and transformed from outside, this is also an important opportunity to improve their household registration and social status, basic treatment and farming;

Compared with the hard work and hard labor in various construction sites, a drop of sweat falls eight petals and a long process of accumulating seniority in the naturalization process; If these naturalized residents resettled in Yanbian can take the initiative to participate in the army, help the front, and obtain the corresponding qualifications and contribution certificates, they can undoubtedly reduce or even exempt the labor cycle of the corresponding administrative areas, and thus exempt them from the regional restrictions; or make an exception to improve their initial account level and daily rights and interests; And then obtained the starting qualifications to work, enroll, and do business under the rule of Huaizhen, apply for land division and redemption of property, and even directly engage in military and official affairs.

Once the troops they follow have been able to occupy a stable territory, they can apply for the priority and convenience of resettlement and development as old immigrants in the newly developed land, and participate in the management and motivation of the new people with a certain sense of superiority and mentality.

。。。。。。。。。。。。。

Bozhou, Hebei, Xiaowudu in Chaoling County,

As the last remaining anchorage of the Yellow River Sailor under the name of Hebei Xingtai, the connected water village and Lu village have been caught in a large area of smoke and fire, as well as heart-rending shouts.

Outside the harbor, a fleet of boats adrift on the water is also busy cleaning and inspecting the deck, fixing many launch racks and projection tracks, and reloading the encapsulated flying fire mines.

"The water strikes are signaling again."

"The cardinal's manpower has begun to return."

"Preliminary confirmation has been completed. There are four three-story ships, eleven ships with a thousand materials, and a fighting ship with six hundred materials."

“。。。。。。。。。”

"Thirty-one warships in all, twenty-six large suspension ships."

"Most of them have already burned in the harbor."

"In order to make sure that nothing goes wrong, it is better to have another wave."

"This time, the focus is on the slipway and material warehouse on the shore, so that no fish can slip through the net"

"Since this battle, up and down this great river, our army has gone to the past, and the enemy has no way to come and go."
