Fifteen thousand men marched out, and the momentum was naturally huge, and the procession seemed to stretch endlessly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Not all of the 15,000 troops are the main battle army, and there are about 6,000 logistics troops, which are mainly divided into five categories: reconnaissance troops, medical troops, communications troops, firehead troops, and baggage troops. Subsequently, 5,000 civilians were requisitioned to assist these soldiers in transporting military rations.

It's not just Li Yu's army, in fact, most of the troops are like this, saying that there are tens of thousands of troops, and a number of them are scouts, baggage troops and firehead troops. The main battle force is generally only about 80 to 70 percent.

A reduction of more than 30% means that nearly half of the main battle force has been killed, and if the difference in the number of the two sides is too large, these auxiliary armies will easily begin to collapse.

For this expedition, Li Yuke took out all the horses he had prepared in the past two years, 300,000 prestige points per day, which seems like a lot, but he can only buy 10 horses to buy them, but fortunately, he can save about 300 horses in a month, provided that there are no other expenses. The maintenance and replacement of Rankopa, and even the maintenance fee of the space barrier every month, are unavoidable expenses.

With the popularization of the ID card system, the autonomous region can truly be an iron bucket and more convenient for him to manage; Not to mention, for this expedition, he also hoarded a batch of black technology gadgets......

"This is No. 1, all numbers immediately report the current situation, over!" Yang Lang took out a black metal and said something to it. This move didn't feel abrupt, after all, the usefulness of this thing was already known before the expedition.

"Here is 101 (102, 103...... Immediately report the current situation, one by one, over! "Five kilometers away, the scattered scout troops began to take out the same thing and immediately proceeded.

"Here is 201 (202, 203...... No enemy forces were found...... "Ten kilometers away, the outermost scouts began to report on the situation outside. With Yang Lang's headquarters as the center, every move within a radius of more than 20 miles is under the monitoring of the scouts.

This thing is a walkie-talkie, and the scouts who travel five miles away carry a relay device to achieve the purpose of normal communication across twenty miles. All the news will be summarized as soon as possible, and Yang Lang's four deputies will be selected and reported.

"There is no problem in the South!" The first report is that the south is within the scope of the autonomous region, and even if it is considered the rear, there will naturally be no hostile situation.

"There is no problem in the East!" The second reported that the East is where they came, and there will be no problem for the time being.

"There is no problem in the north!" The third reported that the north has not yet crossed the Yangtze River, and the other party will not cross the river so quickly.

"There is a village twenty miles to the west, under the rule of Jing County, do you want to enter or detour?" The last scout reported that he had also checked the military map a little, and only then did he know the situation in the village twenty miles away.

"Take a detour, but let the scouts and the local people explain that it is best for them to stay in the village and not come out when the army crosses, so as not to cause any misunderstanding!" Yang Lang reported the situation to Li Yu, who said.

"Get ready for a detour, over!" The other generals took out their radios one after another, and since everyone was not using the same channel, the orders given should not be wrong.

"Get ready for a detour!" The mid-level officers below immediately gave the order, and the low-level officers also gave the order as soon as they received the order.

In ancient times, communications were backward, and in order to command and dispatch the two armies, it was often necessary to complete the battle through heralds.

It's just that the fighting between the two armies is like a rainbow, and even if the herald has a loud voice, he may not be able to convey the military order in time. In particular, if it is conveyed slowly, it can sometimes cause irreparable damage.

Nowadays, if any order is issued as soon as possible, the middle-level officers below have the pager of their headquarters, and they can understand the content of the order at the first time, and reach the lower level at the first time, so it will be much easier to control the army. Even the speed of reaction far surpassed that of the army of this era.

Four years have passed since the establishment of the Autonomous Region, and since the third year, the population around the Autonomous Region has benefited from the spread of high-yielding crops. Over time, they also had a good impression of the autonomous region, and when they learned that it was the army of the autonomous region that went north to beg for thieves, not to mention the welcome from the metro, there was still basic goodwill.

Li Yu was just worried that this would affect the speed of the army's march, so he didn't let them out. Of course, fear of causing unnecessary misunderstandings is also the key. When the army is on a normal march, a group of people suddenly appears towards him, which can easily cause misunderstanding, and if he is unlucky, he will cause casualties among the people.

Fortunately, everyone can follow Li Yu's instructions and not leave the village casually, unless Li Yu feels that it is getting late and must stay and rest for a while, otherwise he will not pass through the village directly, so as not to disturb the place.

This move also further won the favor of the people, after all, there are very few such troops, and the armies I have seen before are not so polite. For a time in the local area, it can be regarded as a name of 'benevolence'.

With scouts in advance, the ships were collected much faster, and by the time the army arrived, the ships had been collected. Under the command of Li Yu, only 500 sappers carried out the construction of the project as soon as possible, and the erection of the pontoon bridge was completed in less than half an hour. This is a three-meter-wide pontoon bridge, and it is the dry period of the Yangtze River, so the pontoon bridge is very stable.

The army quickly crossed the bridge, after which the pontoon bridge was temporarily retained for subsequent grain transportation. As compensation, the boats were paid to the shipowners at a 30 per cent increase in market value.

This money is enough for them to buy a new, better ship, and the extra part is just enough to pay for their lost time. Naturally, the boatmen were very happy and did not forget to thank them when they got the money.

According to the previous situation, this nearly 100-mile journey will take at least two days to get there. In particular, the land of Wuyue is mountainous and forested, which is not suitable for large-scale marching, and will further slow down the march.

However, now, in less than one day, they have crossed the Yangtze River, which was a miracle at the time. In fact, everyone knows that this is the application of the pager, and the role of the sapper. I have to say that this kind of army that specializes in building bridges and paving roads still has such a magical role.

In modern and modern history, the main role of the engineer is to dig trenches, arrange barbed wire, and even dig anti-artillery holes. But in ancient times, when the road conditions were very bad, the role of sappers became very prominent. Cooperate with scouts to conduct reconnaissance, so that they can work without fear, and when encountering enemy situations, they will hide in the rear army.

When necessary, they will also fight, and the sapper shovel in their hands is a new invention of the autonomous region, and there are not so many functions, and the three functions of planing, shoveling and chopping can still be done, and they can be used as individual weapons.

"Set up camp on the spot, the scouts still maintain a five-mile radius to reconnoitre, don't give the enemy a chance, even if they are a group of civilians who have just picked up arms!" Li Yu looked at the sky, and then shouted.

"Whoa!" The school officials below responded one after another and arranged for it.

There was no need to set up camp yet, and since the next day was to march, it was good to simply arrange the rest areas of each army. There is no need to camp on the march, only when there is a long-term confrontation or defense.

After all, even if all the people were to do it, it would take at least more than an hour to set up camp and build basic fortifications. Even if you don't need these fortifications the next day, it will take half an hour to complete the dismantling work, and repeating this kind of work every day will only increase the burden on these soldiers who consume a lot of physical strength because of the march!

"The departments immediately rested, and the firehead army immediately began to bury pots and cook; The sappers immediately arranged for people to boil water, and everyone should not take a bath, just wipe it simply; In addition, if there is no water in the kettle, you should quickly replenish it, remember that it must be boiling water!

Yang Lang, you immediately gather your troops, summarize the pager application of this actual battle, see what else can be improved, and strive to do better before the first battle!

The sapper part should also be carefully discussed to see where improvements can be made, after all, your work efficiency is related to the speed of the whole army's advance! As for the others, summarize today's march, continue to carry forward the good points, and correct the bad ones! After Li Yu dismounted and handed the reins to his soldiers, he commanded everyone.

"Whoa!" When everyone heard this, they received orders one after another, and they did not dare to slack off.

In the past three years, at Li Yu's request, they gradually began to get used to summarizing and introspecting, and this habit made them grow and mature rapidly. Nowadays, about 60% of the troops are recruits, so there are often various problems when marching, and if you don't summarize and reflect, it is easy to have various problems in the future.

The disciples of Momen are also prepared as soon as possible, as long as they reflect on the meal, they will be responsible for going deep into it, on the one hand to help those recruits to eradicate illiteracy, on the other hand, to promote the spirit and doctrine of Momen, the key is to deal with the contradictions between them.

Most of these recruits are ordinary people who fled from the Central Plains, many of them are illiterate, and they don't know much about the autonomous region, but they only know that this is the most prosperous place in Danyang County, and even surpasses the county governance. In order for them to better integrate into the autonomous region and become real soldiers, Momen propaganda and education are also necessary.

Dinner began half an hour later, and the food consisted mainly of three corn nests plus a small plate of pickles and a small piece of roasted meat. On the way, sappers or scouts will be killed immediately if they encounter any beasts that come out of nowhere. These are all precious foods, so they are naturally collected by the baggage soldiers, simply washed and peeled, and kept as military rations.

When they were eaten in the evening, some of them were not very fresh, but when they were on the march, they had barbecue to eat, which was already very remarkable, and the soldiers had nothing to complain about. As for the cornmeal nest with pickles, it is also very delicious, no less than corn. Many soldiers have never even eaten this thing, they think it is very delicious, and they know that they can eat it every day, and it is even more beautiful.

After dinner, it is time to wash up immediately, and there is no way to arrange a bath tub, but you can still boil some hot water and simply scrub it with a towel.

"It's time to learn, all the recruits assemble!" The outer disciples of the Momen began to gather new soldiers.

"Sir, we can't read...... And what is the use of our literacy? "Some of the recruits complain that they are just the lowest soldiers, and they don't know when they will die on the battlefield, and what is the use of studying, not to mention that they are illiterate.

"We will help you enlighten, and in the future, if you make war achievements, you can also go to the military academy for further study! Don't be presumptuous, you must know that Master Li once said, 'A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier', aren't you all good? The Momen disciple shouted.

"We ...... We are all good soldiers! After hesitating for less than three seconds, the soldiers shouted. (To be continued.) )
