Chapter 364: Military Discipline The rear army attacked
Zhao Xun quietly watched the cheering soldiers, waiting for them to vent.
After a long time, the cheers stopped at the signal of Han Meng's halberd.
"We are soldiers, we are Xiaoguo Army, and we are the unparalleled Xiaoguo Army in the world! How well my Xiaoguo army is treated, it is well known. Rewards are indispensable after every war. But the military discipline of my Xiaoguo army is also strict, and when the general gives the order, he clearly explains, no rape/adultery/women, no smashing and burning, and no private property. β
Zhao Xun's tone became more and more severe: "However, some people regard General Ben's military order as a deaf ear and don't take it to heart at all. There are those who commit adultery/adultery/women, and there are even more who possess property. β
"The reason why my Xiaoguo army has won many battles is because of iron discipline and iron willpower. There are no rules, there is no circle, and in the army, military discipline is the first priority. The military order is unknown, why am I in charge of the army? In the world, the armies that can fight well are all divisions with strict military discipline. Whether you are regular soldiers or people, now you all represent this Xiaoguo army, and the Xiaoguo army will never allow the survival of those who do not obey the order. β
"Hu Xiang, you sue General SΓΉben, just this afternoon, how many people have violated military discipline!"
Hu Xiang took a few steps forward, took out the military discipline booklet in his hand, and read in a deep voice: "This afternoon, a total of 130 people violated the order to rape/adultery/women, and 255 people violated the order to hide their belongings. Forty men fought with friendly troops for booty, fought with each other, and were later reprimanded by the military judge. "In fact, there are more than these aspects of discipline violation, but those are just small mistakes that do not lead to death.
"Good, good! They have learned to beat their own people! When you go to the battlefield, do you give yourself a knife in the back? Such a person, does Xiaoguo Army dare to ask for it? Who of you would dare to allow such a person to stand behind you? Fighting each other for a little booty, then there are greater benefits, is it not that even this general is cut to the ground? Zhao Xun's tone was cold and unusual, and the soldiers on the school field trembled when he heard it.
"Come on, bring me this guy who violates military discipline!"
After a while, a total of 325 people were escorted over, and they knelt down in a row under the point platform, in front of the soldiers.
After glancing at it, Zhao Xun's face became more and more gloomy, although most of the perpetrators were people, there were still more than 20 regular soldiers.
"Very good, even the regular sergeants under my command have committed crimes, it's really good, it's really giving me the face of the Xiaoguo Army!"
"Have you heard General Ben's military orders in the afternoon?" Zhao Xun said coldly to the offender below.
At this time, the people who committed the crime had already lost half of their excitement on their faces, and they all turned pale, knowing that the big thing was not good. Especially the more than 20 Xiaoguo sergeants, their faces are even more dead.
"All deaf! Ben will talk to you, have you ever heard Ben General's order yesterday? Zhao Xun snorted.
"Back to the general's words, I heard it." Everyone immediately replied tremblingly.
"Oh, I thought my herald didn't pass it on to the more than 300 of you, but I heard it!"
A young man of twenty-two and three, he glanced up at Zhao Xun, and said tremblingly: "The general will let us go once, and I won't dare next time." β
"Yes, General, spare us this time, there is still a sick old mother in the small family, General, spare me this time!"
Hundreds of criminals cried desperately and begged for mercy, and kept kowtowing, and after a while, blood flowed profusely. Only more than 20 Xiaoguo soldiers knelt there in despair, silent, as if they had lost their minds.
Zhao Xun looked at the more than three hundred people coldly, and he also wanted to spare them, even if he beat them up. But is military discipline child's play? Other things can be slowed down or reduced, but in front of everyone's eyes, can it be the same thing as a military order? If he does this, then in the future, his military discipline will be despised. Some people will feel that, in fact, some military orders can still be ignored.
Now it is not only the people who are committing crimes, but also the regular soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army. Letting them go, not only will the Xiaoguo soldiers feel lucky, but even those people will feel that Zhao Xun's decree is tolerant. Then they will take chances and ignore military law. It's not a good head, and it's troublesome to press it again.
With a long sigh, Zhao Xun said sternly: "Military law is ruthless, and military orders are like mountains. As soon as the military law comes out, everything is the same. Some of you are not soldiers, but now that you are under the control of my Xiaoguo Army, you must abide by the military regulations. However, those who dare to ignore military law will be severely punished. The general had already issued an order yesterday, and those who dared to disobey the order would be killed. You also admit that you have heard the general's order, that is, you have committed it knowingly, and you are guilty of a first-class crime. β
"Come on, behead them all on the spot, and send the whole army to follow suit."
"I will have your belongings delivered to your homes, and you have all died on the battlefield, and your families have to enjoy the treatment of martyrs' families. Execute! β
"General Xie!" More than 20 soldiers said in unison.
"Hu Xiang, the rest of the wrongdoers, no one has fifty military sticks, free from the spoils of war this time!"
"From this day onwards, the judges of each battalion will be transferred every six months, and if the successor finds that the new arrivals are not strict in military law and the non-commissioned officers do not respect military law, they will be convicted of taking up their posts and facing the post of captain. These twenty men belonged to that battalion, and the lieutenant of the battalion left his post and the lieutenant succeeded him. The former lieutenant joined the civilian battalion as a lieutenant. Zhao Xun said with a gloomy face.
As soon as these words came out, the hearts of the captains of each battalion jumped, and the faces of the military judges of each battalion also changed.
"Situ Liang, Hu Xiang, you two are responsible for registering these trophies and distributing them to the soldiers, the people, and the rest into the warehouse! The rest of the army was brought back for training by their respective officers.
For Zhao Xun, the order just given was because of the strictness of military law, but there was a more important purpose, which was to beat the non-commissioned officers and officers of the Xiaoguo Army again. The current Xiaoguo Army, with its successive victories, has made them forget about it and ignore the severity of military law. In the military, strict military law is the basis for invincibility.
At the same time that Zhao Xun broke through the largest border city in the north of Liao Tunnel City, the rest of the Fourth Route Army also made great gains around Liao Tunnel City. Of course, not every time you can let the soldiers defending the city of the Yan army be fooled, but with more battles and less, avoiding the strong and weak, and attacking them together, the army of the Yan army waited for the arrival of the Xiaoguo army in Liao Tunnel City, and did not pay attention to the Dao, and the counties and cities around it were captured by the Xiaoguo army one by one, making him slowly become a "lonely man".
In addition to Zhao Xun's iron-blooded methods, the rest of the Fourth Route Army also received Zhao Xun's instructions to execute the regular soldiers of the Yan Army on the spot and build a capital view to deter foreigners.
Xiping Mansion, the sharp corner of the Liaodong Peninsula, is bordered by Liaozhou Mansion of the East Three Prefectures in the north, Andong Mansion in the west, and the Yalu River in the east. It is the largest of the three prefectures.
In the southernmost seaside place, is the former Liaodong Navy Division's sailor battalion, for the Beisha City, later the three mansions fell, here is stationed 5,000 Yan Yan soldiers soldiers, in case the Yan State Navy from the opposite side of Youzhou. However, with the retreat of the Yan State, the Su Mo Yan also relaxed the supervision of this place, and the surveillance of the surrounding area was relaxed a lot, and some merchant ships also came and went here.
Li Chenfeng's left army was responsible for attacking from Xiping Mansion, appearing from the enemy's rear, going north to join Zhao Xun, and directly attacking the third capital, Liaozhou Mansion.
The original intention was to raid the harbor of Beisha City, but there were not enough warships to transport too many Xiaoguo soldiers. Fang Deti, the deputy general of the Houshui Battalion, moved the landing point to the east for 200 miles, where there is a small harbor, which is a natural harbor, because the terrain is not as convenient as Beisha City, so this Yinxi Port was placed and became the activity point of the surrounding fishermen.
With 25,000 soldiers, 25,000 soldiers, and a lot of logistical materials, the naval division's warships needed to go back and forth several times.
Since he didn't know much about the situation, Li Chenfeng discussed with Fang De and others to transport 5,000 troops and certain supplies first to occupy Yinxi Port. If it is not discovered, set up a water camp there and wait for the arrival of the army behind. If it is discovered, it will be attracted to other places to reduce resistance for the subsequent advance of the army.
Fortunately, things are all smooth, and it seems that the attention of Su Mo Jin Ya was attracted by Andong Mansion, besides, this Eastern Three Mansions was originally the land of Yan Kingdom, but it was forcibly occupied by Su Mo Ya. The actual control and understanding of the Eastern Three Prefectures is not very deep.
The first round to be transported to Yinxi Port was the Nufeng Battalion to explore the way, although the war horses did not come with the army this time, but Zhao Mang and the soldiers of the Nufeng Battalion were not afraid. The Furious Front Battalion can fight on horseback, and it can also fight when dismounted. What's more, in the land of Liaodong, on the territory of the Su Mo Ya, there is a lack of everything, that is, there is no shortage of war horse resources, no? Then go grab it.
Forty or fifty warships of the water camp marched towards Liaodong, but in order to avoid being discovered, they still made some cover-ups, cut off some obvious sailor flags, and replaced them with the flags of merchant ships. However, fortunately, there were no merchant ships heading north to Xiping Province on the road, and it seems that it was because of the Xiaoguo Army's eastward crusade, which affected trade, so that some people did not dare to run north at this time.
Yinxi Port, because this is an excellent harbor, has gathered a lot of people, and a big town has been formed here, Yinxi Town. There are more than 300 households in the town, 14,500 people, and it is a relatively large town. Most of the people in the town are Han people, but there are also some people from other ethnic groups. On the contrary, there are not many orthodox millet people, probably because they don't like fishing.
At the beginning of March, the night was dark, and there was no moonlight, only a new light that brought some light to the earth.
More than ten miles east of Yinxi Port, dozens of big black guys appeared and slowly approached.
"General Fang, we've been hiding around here for a day, can we attack at night?" Zhao Mang asked with a pale face. If you are not good at water, you are not good at water, although Zhao Mang can swim, but when he got on the boat, he was still dizzy and vomited. So much so that seeing the mainland is like going ashore, and there are not a few such cases.
"Captain Zhao, it should be okay, I will let the boat approach and let you pass. Although there are only fishermen here, no one knows what will happen. What should you do when you go ashore and encounter the enemy? Why don't you let this auxiliary soldier assist you and go ashore first to open up the situation? Fang De looked at Zhao Mang, who was pale, and several of the same captains, and said with some concern.
"It's all right, just send us ashore, and the general will need to turn around quickly and bring the army here. Whether we can make a difference here depends on the general. Zhao Mang said with a smile.
"In that case, then I'll send you up." Seeing this, Fang De didn't say anything more. He also knew that only if he hurried back and let the army come as quickly as possible could it guarantee the victory of the army.
Zhao Mang personally selected more than 1,000 people, and these more than 1,000 people were not affected by seasickness among these 5,000 people. In a small boat, of course, this small ship is compared to a large battleship. More than 20 small warships sailed towards Yinxi Harbor, more than ten miles away, in this quiet night. Their task is to completely control this Yinxi Port, and not let outsiders discover the anomaly.
Since I don't know much about the situation here, my mission this time is only to take down the fishermen and other people of Yinxi Port as quietly as possible. If there is an accident, the large and small warships behind will rush to the place, and the whole army will enter and occupy this place. Then, according to the terrain, then decide whether to keep or go.
When he finally approached Yinxi Port, Zhao Mang found that there were a lot of fishing boats here. In order to prevent someone from being on duty at night among the fishing boats, Zhao Mang reduced the speed of the sea boats to the slowest speed. Fortunately, the howling of the night wind reduced the sound of the big ship moving forward.
"Big brother, what are you looking at?" Just when the warship of Zhao Mang and others sailed into Yinxi Port, leaned close to the fishing boat, and was about to land, he suddenly remembered with a shout. It's not that the other party's voice is loud, and the voice of the question seems to be staring in a daze, as if drunk and awake, and it is slightly immature. But in this silent night, there was no sound but the wind, and there was darkness except the faint light of the stars. The sound was very distinct.
Suddenly, Zhao Mang and the soldiers, who were quietly landing on the shore, were stunned, and they were like clay sculptures at the moment.
"Oops, discovered? I don't know if there are any sentries from the Evil Army in this town. Zhao Mang's face froze, and he thought secretly.
"Oh, it's nothing, just come out and pee, go to sleep!" At this time, Zhao Mang found that on a fishing boat that he was only more than 30 meters away, a seemingly rocking slung storage was replying.
Although he couldn't see the other party clearly, Zhao Mang knew that the other party had already discovered them, but he didn't know why he didn't shout.
After speaking, the black shadow who replied was still standing there quietly, while Zhao Mang and the soldiers were still in place, and they seemed to be at an impasse.
"Xiang Yan, continue to go ashore! Be careful this time, go ashore and look around, and don't drive into town just yet. Zhao Mang thought for a moment and said in a deep voice.
"Got it, Captain!" Xiang Yan whispered, continuing to direct the others to land.
And Zhao Mang led more than a dozen people to the fishing boat that spoke.
