Chapter 0588: I Don't Move
Today is the day when the Beihai Volunteer Army entered Shengjing City.
The people of Shengjing City have finally seen the true face of the long-legendary Beihai Volunteer Army.
This army was unlike anything they had seen before.
The military uniforms of other armies are all long robes and coats, but in this army, the upper body is short, and the hem is only to the hips.
The jacket and trousers are one color, all leather riding boots.
On the head, there is a fur hat of uniform color and style.
The belts and dagger guns on the body are exactly the same.
Although there are several colors of war horses, they are all of the same color when they walk together.
After the cavalry, there were the horse-drawn fast Franco cannons, and further back, the horse-drawn artillery carriages.
Those cannons looked black and shiny, and they were a little crazy.
It's strange that there are still some women.
What's even more strange is that there are also some strange-looking people, whose eyes, noses, hair, etc., are very different from those of Middle-earth.
There are even those with black faces, and it's not the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and I don't know what they are doing with the ashes at the bottom of the pot to smear themselves so black.
Could it be that in broad daylight, they are also afraid that the little devil will come and catch them?
These people are different from other armies in that no matter where they go, as long as there are more than three people, they all walk in line, and when they go shopping and ask for directions, they talk to people very kindly. Compared to the fierce and vicious GIs in the past, it is really different.
The Beihai Volunteers did not come to the city to station, their camp is still outside the city, and today they are just going to the city to show around.
The first is to let the people see the military appearance and military discipline, and the second is to ask the soldiers to go to the city to see the excitement.
After all, once you arrive in Shengjing, if you don't even enter the city, it will be a pity in the future.
Daiyu's propaganda team was already openly active in the city at this time.
The content of the event is similar to before, it is still the same old routine.
Guo Qisheng, Hua Yusheng and others wrote letters to people, and because the Chinese New Year was approaching, there were more people writing Spring Festival couplets.
Today, even Daiyu, Xichun, Miaoyu, and a few soldiers who wrote better words have joined the ranks of writing couplets.
The red paper was bought by Daiyu with the public funds of the propaganda team, and after it was written, it was given to the people for free.
Because they don't want money, many people gather around the stage and ask for it.
On the other side, Liu Xianglian and Jiang Yuhan got a few tables from the shop next to them, set up a stage, and began to sing.
Being able to watch a play is still a relatively luxurious thing for the people.
Generally, only wealthy and large families can afford to hire a troupe. If ordinary people want to watch a play, they have to spend money to watch it in teahouses, wine shops and opera gardens.
Nowadays, there are dramas that don't cost money to watch, and they are still famous characters in the imperial capital, and people naturally don't want to fall behind, so they are surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside.
After the Guangfu Army took over Shengjing City, order in the city quickly returned to normal.
For the common people, who is the emperor is not so important.
Whether this emperor can tell them to live a peaceful life, whether he can pay less harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, whether he can reduce labor and forced labor, and whether the price of grain can not be so expensive, this is the most important thing.
Whoever becomes the emperor, they have to kneel when they see the official, and whoever is the official, they are also ordinary people. The difference is only that when you are lucky, you can be a clean official, and when you are unlucky, you will meet a faint official and a corrupt official.
The city is quite lively, but Guan Xiangtun is relatively quiet here.
At this time, in Jia Min's room, a group of people were deliberating.
Chang'an, King Beijing, Scholar Ji, Wei Ruolan, Jia Lian, Chen Yeqing, Zhao Dahai, Temir, Luo Muge, Kadeer, Shake, Wadagasi, Xi Mairui, Luo Xingshan, Liu Huaide, General Xu, General Qu and other generals gathered here.
"Guys, there's bad news for you now."
Hearing Wei Ruolan say this, everyone couldn't help but look at each other and straighten their bodies.
They all felt a little strange, but no one spoke.
"The latest information I got yesterday shows that the Mogu people have sent troops south."
Every winter, some nomadic tribes in the steppe almost have to send troops south to raid.
Over the years, it has almost become a habit. The difference is only in size. So when Wei Ruolan said this, she hadn't attracted everyone's special attention.
"This time the troops are very different from the past, they did not loot everywhere, but directly attacked Niangzi Pass."
Attack Niangzi Pass? This is unusual.
Niangziguan is on the edge of Zhili, which is going deep into the mainland. In the past, the steppe cavalry rarely went so far into the interior.
"He Jialin, Zhou Tong, and Ma Qingshan, who were previously in Niangzi Pass, have been defeated in Shanxi, and Niangzi Pass has now been occupied by the Nailin tribe of the Mogu people."
This news was brought back by Jia Qiao yesterday.
Now, he is responsible for the liaison between Jia Min, Chang'an and He Jialin.
The news was sent back by Jia Qiao only last night, so Jia Min called people to notify the generals from all walks of life overnight to hold a meeting here to study countermeasures.
Wei Ruolan introduced the general situation of the battle of Niangzi Pass, and then added.
"In addition, there was news from Shanhaiguan that it was two people from the Mogu Nailin tribe who had come to Shanhaiguan to contact Song Kuan and Han Tiankui. These two people, one is the butler and Anda of Atai, the great chief of the Nalin tribe, and the other is Atai's uncle. Therefore, we suspect that the capture of Niangzi Pass by the ancient people of Mo this time may be related to Song Kuan and Han Tiankui. ”
"What is the purpose of the Mogu people to capture Niangzi Pass?"
King Beijing asked first.
"It's not clear. And that's where the weirdness comes in. It is said that when he met with Anda and Song Kuan, he should have negotiated some affairs, but it was because the negotiation failed, so he sent troops. ”
"If they can't negotiate, the ancient people of Mo should attack Han Qi, but now they didn't fight Han Qi, but attacked He Jialin, isn't this equivalent to helping the three feudatories?"
Chang'an raised his suspicions.
"It's not a deal they struck that way, that's why it's like this."
Zhao Dahai was just guessing.
"It doesn't seem to make sense to say that a deal was made. If the Mogu people occupy the Niangzi Pass, they can enter the imperial capital, which may not be a good thing for the three feudatories. ”
"There's something weird about it."
Luo Xingshan said unhurriedly.
"Luo Fu Yin, what are you weird about?"
"He Shen General was originally defending Niangzi Pass, before Han Qi attacked Niangzi Pass, this time the Mogu people captured the Niangzi Pass, which shows that the Mogu people are powerful. Otherwise, He Shen will not be defeated. ”
"Since the ancient Mo people can defeat the Niangzi Pass, they can also defeat Han Qi. Now that they occupy the Niangzi Pass, they neither fight Han Qi nor attack Zhili, but they are just circling in the pass, isn't it suspicious? ”
"Could it be that the two of them have a tacit understanding?"
A group of people were discussing, and Jia Qiao walked in and said something in Wei Ruolan's ear.
"I just got the news that Song Kuan and Han Tiankui left Shanhaiguan and went to the imperial capital."
Wei Ruolan announced the news.
"At this time, they should be guarding against us at Shanhaiguan, why did they both leave at this critical juncture?"
Chen Yeqing asked.
"There's something more important than that."
Jia Lian said casually.
"What could be more important than dealing with us at the moment?"
Jia Min hadn't spoken before, just listened to everyone's discussions, hoping to gain something valuable from their discussions.
At this time, when he heard Chang'an say this, he immediately woke up in his heart.
"After meeting with Anda and Song Kuan and Han Tiankui in Shanhaiguan before, Mogu sent troops. After beating the Niangzi Pass, they must be waiting for something. ”
"At this moment, Song Kuan and Han Tiankui suddenly left Shanhaiguan, they should go back to see Han Tiandou."
"Chief Min, are you saying that Song Kuan reached a deal with the ancient Mo people, and this time he went back to ask Han Tiandou for permission?"
Wei Ruolan quickly came to a conclusion.
"At least it should have something to do with it. At present, the foundation of the three feudatories is crumbling, and it is also a way to borrow troops from the Mogu people to deal with us. ”
Previously, Jia Min was worried that the ancient people would take advantage of the fire to rob, and now he feels that his previous worries are likely to become a reality.
"If that's the case, the three feudal clans will lure the wolf into the house."
Scholar Ji worried.
"Not necessarily, if this is the case, we will clash with the Mogu people, and at that time, the three feudatories will just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight."
As soon as King Beijing's words came out, everyone seemed to understand.
"King Beijing is right, I think this is the wishful thinking of the three feudatories."
Jia Min made the final decision.
"However, even if the two of them have no deal, we will have to fight with the Mogu people sooner or later. Now that the Mogu people are strong and eager to try, they will not let go of this opportunity. ”
"Fight and fight, I've always heard them boast that their iron riders are invincible, and this time we have to have a good fight with them."
Shaq looked eager to try.
"Okay, Shaq, this time I really want to see who is better between you Wendura Iron Rider and Mogu Iron Rider."
Jia Min stood up.
"However, they are outnumbered, and they still can't fight with them. Each of our warriors is precious, and there is no need to fight them one-on-one. Brigade Commander Chen, Brigade Commander Jia, from tomorrow, we will start training the cavalry of South Wendura and North Wendura, and teach them the three-on-one tactics of our government corps. ”
"In addition, in the future, the Beihai Volunteers and the Wendura cavalry will act together to provide them with artillery support when they are engaged. Commander of the Wei Army, Brigade Commander Chen, and Brigade Commander Jia, you will make a battle plan in a while, we will go deep into the Mogu Grassland, strike first, and take the initiative to attack them. In the direction of Shanhaiguan, there will be no attack for the time being. ”
"Chief Min, do you mean to defeat the Mogu people?"
"The soldiers and horses of the ancient people of Mo are all formed according to each tribe, and since they have already taken action, they should have been mobilized in each tribe at this time. However, before the war against us, we should not have gathered together, and we must break them down with local superior forces before they gather. ”
"In this operation, the South Wendura Cavalry, the North Wendula Cavalry, and the 3rd and 4th Brigades of the Volunteer Army all participated in the secret operation. Other units of the Guangfu Army stayed in Shengjing, Songshanbao, and Ningyuan to guard the arsenal. Pin down the enemy of Shanhaiguan. ”
