Chapter 142: Taking Runan County (Part II)

Guan Ping is only 16 years old this year, but he has been training since he was eight years old. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info He inherited Guan Yu's divine power, so he was specially recruited into the army at the age of fourteen, and became a general of Guan Yu's subordinates at the age of sixteen, commanding a thousand soldiers. This time, he was the commander-in-chief of the 4,000 soldiers, and three lieutenants assisted as deputies.

This is somewhat ***, but Guan Ping's strength is there, even those who have doubts are convinced. Besides, the Huaxia Republic is originally the supremacy of strength, Guan Ping has this ability and knowledge, then he can quickly ascend to the position, this is a normal thing, and talking about resume in the army is the most ridiculous thing.

It's even more cruel here than the administrative department, and it's better for the old to retire directly, or take a back seat, and be in the prime of life, especially with a young man like a genius like Guan Ping, it's not surprising that he quickly ascended to power.

In the army of the Chinese Republic, there are only two people who can be over forty years old and still exist as front-line generals, one is Huang Zhong and the other is Huang Gai. The two of them are no longer in peak condition, but their force value is still off the charts, not to mention the rich experience of more than 40 years, which makes their tactics and strategies very mature and stable, and they are the mainstay of the army.

Of course, Guan Ping's strength has not yet reached the limit, but the bow and arrow in his hand is a standard strong bow designed by Momen. Relying on pulleys and other means to reduce the force of winding, even a sixteen-and-a-half-year-old child can pull this five-stone strong bow. Of course, with his strength, he could only actually fire the bow twice, unless he didn't plan to continue fighting.

Such a strange-looking bow does not look beautiful, but its power is amazing. If Tai Shici hadn't dodged immediately at that time, he was afraid that there was still an error of 0.1 seconds, and he would have been shot directly on the spot, even if he had armor, it would be useless.

At the same time, the cavalry under Guan Ping had already taken out the arrows behind them and shot directly at the enemy. Taishi Ci was a light cavalry, and the strength of the armor was not high, so he was directly shot by armor piercing, and none of them were spared.

Where has Tai Shici seen such a terrible arrow, he originally thought that he had overestimated the army of the Huaxia Republic, but he didn't want to really fight only to find out that before he knew it, the Han Republic had been left a long distance by others.

It's just that he didn't be afraid of this, and killed Guan Ping directly. The latter also switched back to spears, and the two sides began to fight.

Guan Yu is holding the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, which is because of Li Yu's gift, and because Guan Yu is born with divine power, so it can become a classic to raise the knife to kill; But for ordinary people, it is not easy to play with such a heavy weapon, which is used by Guan Ping, but it is a traditional spear, but it is also a rare boutique in terms of quality.

The spear and the spear are different concepts, the latter focusing on variety and lightness, while the former focuses on distance and thrust. Fortunately, Guan Ping's horses were obviously superior to Tai Shi Ci's seat, and the two sides quickly approached, Guan Ping's spear stabbed directly, and the spear broke through the wind and stabbed directly at Tai Shi Ci's shoulder.

I don't aim directly at the chest because there is a heart guard on the chest, and if you stab there, it is easy to be defended, and the target is too obvious, and it is easy to be counterattacked by the opponent. Not to mention the head and neck, the targets are too small to be the main target in a normal fight.

Tai Shi Ci seemed to have expected it, and immediately returned his gun and slammed it on the spear, knocked it away, and stabbed it directly towards the closed door. It's just that the latter seems to have expected it, and he directly stabbed back again, and while he was still in the attack range, he directly pierced Tai Shici's other shoulder and stabbed him off the horse.

Two-stage thrusts, two thrusts in a very short period of time. Keep in mind that the horses on both sides were originally charged at high speed, which means that they may only have less than 0.1 seconds to react.

Guan Ping is only sixteen years old now, and it is this kind of reflex that is the most powerful thing in his youth. On the contrary, Tai Shici was twenty-seven years old, and his reaction was a little worse, just a little bit, and he was directly stabbed off the horse. It has nothing to do with force, Guan Ping is purely bullying others in terms of age.

"Tie up!" Guan Ping immediately ordered, and the soldiers below quickly dismounted and tied up Tai Shici.

It was the first time he had fought someone else, and he won without a hitch. In fact, he won a bit of a fluke this time, and the latter's reaction speed was also very fast, and the spear at that time was less than three centimeters away from his face door, and only then deviated as the opponent fell to the ground, leaving a mark on the helmet.

Looking back, I couldn't help but feel a little scared in my excitement when death was so close to me.

"Boom!" Listening to the sound, Guan Ping already understood that Guan Yu was bombarding the city gate with mortars, but judging from the sound of the explosion, it seemed that a batch of high-explosive bombs had also been put in.

This is not surprising, as the walls of Pingyu are obviously reinforced with cement concrete, and it is not known whether there are steel bars or bamboo bars. Fortunately, there was nothing behind the city gate, so after the fierce bombardment, it also wailed and fell to the ground.

The gate opened, under the cover of the crossbow, the army quickly killed in, the large army not only Guan Yu and Guan Ping, the follow-up arrival of Chen Tao was also quickly put into the war, the army was already good at fighting street battles, with mutual cooperation, quickly occupied Pingyu County.

The county guard Liu Miao did not intend to surrender, and led a group of officials to fight to the end, and was finally directly taken by Guan Yu.

After taking Pingyu, the army began to count the losses after the battle, and the result was that there were almost no casualties among the army, excluding the three soldiers who were injured by the enemy's non-commissioned soldiers.

Advanced equipment, strong soldier quality and strong middle and low-level coordination ability, another surprise attack, Guan Yubu directly played an absolutely crushing result. On the contrary, high-explosive shells and shells are slightly depleted, but this can be replenished at any time.

Guan Yu inquired about the situation of the other three departments, only to learn that they were also attacking the city one after another, consuming some high-explosive shells and shells, but they did not have much battle damage. The Zulang Department had already captured Langling County, and the Zhou Tai Department had also defeated Wufang County, both of which were adjacent to Nanyang County in Jingzhou, and the commanders of the two divisions sent a request to directly enter Nanyang County to fight.

Guan Yu carefully looked at the military map, which included the details of the main roads between the two places collected by the intelligence department. According to the map, since the beginning of this year, roads have been built in both Nanyang and Yingchuan counties, which has greatly strengthened the connection between the two places. This was originally intended to allow trade routes to be unblocked, but it was also just right as a military route.

At the beginning, Li Yu acquiesced to Yang Lang's transmission of republican monopoly capitalism, but wasn't the purpose for this? It was precisely because of the transition from the traditional agrarian system to capitalism that commerce was prevalent, and in order to promote economic development, roads had to be built, even if they were unwilling.

The good transportation environment also helped the advance of the large army and ensured the supply of logistics baggage. Otherwise, with the poor traffic situation of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the longer the battle line is stretched, the higher the danger. In the end, if there is a logistical problem, it is easy for the enemy to retaliate. It would be too bad if there really was a situation where the elite soldiers were defeated by a group of militiamen......

Since there is no problem with the road, Chen Tao also said that he will ensure that the needs of the front line will be met. After the two sides did not object, Guan Yu allowed the request of the two troops to enter Nanyang to fight.

At the same time, they began to converge with Li Tong's department and went towards Shangcai County. In the original time and space, Zhen Luo's father Zhen Yi served as Cai Ling here, but now he has returned to Jizhou and served as the Taishou of Bohai. Of course, this has nothing to do with anyone, even Li Yu has never deliberately cared about Zhen Yi's situation.

Two days later, Guan Yubu completed the suppression of the entire territory of Runan County and began to move north to Yingchuan County. Chen Tao, who entered here with Guan Yu, was a little nervous, after all, Yingchuan Xun was his wife Xun Cai's maiden family, at this stage, Xun Qi and Xun Shuang did not follow to the Han Empire, and remained in Yingchuan County to guard Xun's family business.

Seeing that his father-in-law's family was in front, Chen Tao, the hairy son-in-law, was inevitably embarrassed. After all, in the past, everyone was their own master, and almost never walked through relatives, but now that they have arrived in Yingchuan, it seems a bit unreasonable not to visit again.

Compared with Runan County, Yingchuan County has received the news that the Huaxia Republic has begun to move north, but they don't know that they have occupied Runan County and are about to enter Yingchuan County.

The Han Republic has also known about this matter, and has begun to deploy troops to stop it. Zhang Fei, the general of the expedition to the south, had already begun to reorganize his armament for war, and as soon as the logistics supply was sufficient, he immediately began to move south.

Yingchuan County was originally in the rear, but in the end it borders Nanyang County of the Han Empire, and there are also some border troops, these troops are concentrated in Kunyang County, Wuyang County and Fucheng County, with a total of 30,000 troops, and the generals of the unified army are Huangfu Song and Wang Ling.

Huangfu Song is already old, or his physical condition is not good, he died in 195, and now his health has begun to deteriorate in 193. He is guarding here, and to a large extent, Wang Ling is in charge, and his mission is to complete this delivery. Help Wang Ling mature quickly until he can take charge of himself.

The news of Guan Yubu's arrival, of course, he also received the news quickly, especially after the army had already invaded Yun County, he couldn't calm down. Even if there are about 30,000 troops of the Han Empire on the Nanyang side, as a soldier of the Republic, he can't let the enemy army wreak havoc in his own country.

Zhang Fei can't come over so quickly, not to mention that according to the latest news, Huang Zhongbu has captured Chen County and began to kill Liang County, and Zu Mao's Department has taken over Chen County and started to build fortifications.

This means that the Republic of Dahan is about to face a two-front war, and Gongsun Chan has no way to go south if he wants to guard the north, so Emperor Fu Song also received a document from the imperial court ordering him to deal with Guan Yu's department.

"Don't you even care about the Han Empire?" Huangfu Song was a little helpless, the economic development of the Han Republic was indeed good, and it even increased several times in a short period of time. But correspondingly, both military talent and military strength seem to have been standing still, so that they have been bullied again and again.

This time, they were transferred to fight Guan Yu, which meant that the three places of Kunyang, Father City and Wuyang were almost ceded to the army of the Han Empire. Although they are all countries established by the prince of the Han Dynasty, is this really good?

As a soldier, Huangfu Song is still a little lost in his heart...... (To be continued.) )
