Chapter 14: The First World War

Without waiting for the infantry in the direction of Xicheng to be arranged, Xin Lei personally led a thousand cavalry to quickly gallop to the west of Yugancheng and fought with the cavalry of Xu Liqiang and Zhang Shigang. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Xin Lei ordered them to block the escape route of the South Vietnamese army on the periphery, and he himself led a thousand cavalry directly into the chaotic rout of the South Vietnamese army.

Xin Lei danced a pole of the Eight Overlord Lance, and everywhere he went, flesh and blood flew sideways, invincible.

Xin Lei had to kill the South Vietnamese soldiers first, and then wait until the infantry came over, and he was probably just waiting to receive the prisoners.

The sound of rumbling iron hooves shook the soldiers of the South Vietnamese Army, and the ferocious killing made them even more frightened, and many soldiers were so frightened that they hurriedly threw away their weapons.

Lin Shihong was unwilling to let himself fail like this, he still had to make the last struggle, riding a war horse in the direction of Xin Lei, trying to stop Xin Lei's rage.

Lin Shihong's kung fu is good, the question is who is on top, with Xin Lei's current martial arts, he can completely compete with the first-rate generals of the Great Sui Dynasty. In this way, it is really not enough for Lin Shihong, who is only a second- or third-rate force, to face Xin Lei.

Xin Lei also saw a South Vietnamese army general running towards him, and only then did he know that this was Lin Shihong when he looked at the flag behind him.

As soon as the two main generals looked at each other, the weapon in Lin Shihong's hand had just exerted force, and Xin Lei's overlord lance had already passed through his chest, lifting Lin Shihong's body into the air. If it is only about the speed of action, there is probably no one in the Great Sui Dynasty who can compare to Xin Lei's speed.

"The bandit leader is dead, surrender and don't kill!"

Xin Lei burst into a shout, startling the South Vietnamese army to raise their heads to watch, but no, their own leader Lin Shihong was picked on the overlord lance by this killing god. Lin Shihong was also unlucky, and he met Xin Lei who came from later generations just after he made an accident. He died before he left the school, which made the hero cry. Lin Shihong became the first short-lived hero and a victim of Xin Lei's men.

It's over! All the soldiers of the South Vietnamese Army knew that defeat was a foregone conclusion, and even the leader was killed by others.

At this time, the infantry of the Xiaoguo Army had already arrived, and the formation was neatly advancing.

"Abandon your weapons and don't kill! Kneel and don't kill! Surrender or kill! ”

The South Vietnamese army has been besieged to the death, with no way to escape, and can only abandon their weapons and surrender in the face of the powerful Xiaoguo army.

With the death of Lin Shihong, the war has come to an end, and even a few people who resist can't even make waves. The soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army began to collect and surrender prisoners on all sides of Yugan City, and there were more than 40,000 people.

Xin Lei immediately further reorganized the regiments, and the rate of each regiment was promoted to partial general.

In order to march into Yuzhang as soon as possible, the five regiments of Qiao Hengbo, Chen Hongcang, Wei Xiong, Xue Yongxi, and Dong Hongyang were first reorganized. The original archers were all assigned to the various infantry regiments, and each infantry regiment was assigned an archery battalion.

Qiao Hengbo and the others each led two infantry regiments and two bow and arrow battalions, plus a baggage battalion of 500 people, and a jump of 100 people, each of whom led a total of 5,000 troops, and the five partial generals led a total of 25,000 people.

The five generals hurriedly reorganized and marched towards Yuzhang City with their troops.

The two regiments of Song Weizhao and Gong Xiaoxiang suffered heavy casualties, and each regiment lost nearly half of its personnel. The wounded were treated briefly and assigned to the city defenders. The lack of strength of these two regiments was directly allocated from the army brought by Xinlei to expand the army.

In this way, there were seven combat brigades with a total of 35,000 men. However, in order to avoid trouble, the military ranks of these seven people were all called partial generals and not brigade rates.

The original cavalry regiment was also expanded, and the three partial generals Xu Liqiang, Zhang Shigang, and Zhang Guochao each led 2,000 cavalry.

There were still more than 40,000 people in the Xiaoguo army brought back by Xin Lei who had not moved, and Xin Lei asked them to select qualified young men from among the captives and train the army on the spot.

Xin Lei did not have qualified generals under him, and the expansion of the current army by those old subordinates was already their limit. Xin Lei could only temporarily classify these armies as the Chinese army and lead them himself.

Lin Shihong's 50,000 troops suffered more than 10,000 casualties, and among the remaining 40,000 prisoners, 30,000 qualified prisoners were selected and distributed to each Xiaoguo army. In this way, Xin Lei's Chinese army totaled 70,000 people.

The other 10,000 who were eliminated from the captives were either assigned to the baggage camp or to the garrison.

The city defense army in the area of Boyang expanded greatly during the time that Xin Lei left. Xin Lei explained to his generals that the area controlled by the Xiaoguo Army would expand rapidly in the next step, and it was necessary to form enough city defense troops to fill it in advance, otherwise the security of the vast area south of the Yangtze River could not be guaranteed.

The army repaired for one day, and the next day, Xin Lei led the Chinese army and a large number of city defense troops to the west, leaving only Song Weizhao and Gong Xiaoxiang to guard the place.

At this time, the remnants of Yuzhang City probably knew that their leader Lin Shihong had died, and the South Vietnamese army was almost wiped out except for the army that escorted grain and grass.

The people in Yuzhang City were flustered, but they heard that the Xiaoguo Army was heading towards Yuzhang City. The remnants of the South Vietnamese army panicked like headless flies, and they were busy fleeing.

Most of the people went south, and many of them came from the south.

By the time the Xiaoguo army arrived in Yuzhang City, it was already an empty city. At this point, the South Vietnamese State, which had been established for less than a year, had been wiped out.

Xin Lei, who received the news, immediately ordered Xu Liqiang and Zhang Shigang to lead their respective cavalry to pursue to the south, asking them to bite the tail of the deserter. The infantry followed, and all the counties they passed through were in control, waiting for the city defense to take over.

To this end, Xin Lei also sent the civil official Cao Minghui to follow the Xiaoguo army all the way south with the holy decree of the Great Sui Emperor to implement Xin Lei's plan to expand his territory.

Nima, so cunning!

Some of the rebels fled in the direction of Pingxiang and fled all the way to Ganzhou, and the Xiaoguo army had no choice but to chase them down in two ways.

In front of them were cavalrymen clinging to the tails of the deserters, and behind them were infantry and city defenders following in unison. Wherever they passed, occupy the city and let the city defense army take over.

The southward journey from Yuzhang was quite smooth, and as soon as the holy decree arrived, all the officials in various places obeyed it, and all the soldiers in each county were all taken into the possession of the Xiaoguo army, leaving the city defense army to garrison, and the Xiaoguo army continued to go south.

However, when the Xiaoguo army crossed the Wuling, it was blocked by the Sui Dynasty army.

The generals of the Sui Dynasty, Zhang Zhenzhou and Wang Renshou, and Ning Changzhen, the Taishou of Ningyue County, heard that an army had invaded the border, and immediately led troops to block it, and the two armies formed a confrontation in Lingnan.

The Xiaoguo army did not attack rashly, but waited for the arrival of the civilian official Cao Minghui. If the Holy Decree arrives and the other party still wants to block it, then this battle is inevitable.

Two days later, the civilian official Cao Minghui hurried in and read the decree in front of the two armies.

Zhang Zhenzhou, Wang Renshou and Ning Changzhen were also smart, and they did not resist the will of the Great Sui Emperor and expressed their willingness to belong to Xin Lei.

Pull the banner and make a tiger skin! If these Sui Dynasty officials did not obey the order, it would be a rebellion, and the Xiaoguo army justifiably went to war against them.
