Chapter 117: Sending troops to Yunnan
Yuxiang finally led more than 3,000 remnants back to Yunnan Mansion, Yuxiang looked at many people who were depressed, but there was not much sadness in his heart. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The reason why Yuxiang didn't have much pressure was because he felt that it was normal, which army of the Great Qing Dynasty could defeat the armies of the Western powers?
In fact, Yuxiang did not forget the Zhenwu army of Li Zhongju, the king of Zhennan, but Yuxiang felt that the king of Zhennan no longer belonged to the Qing Dynasty. The king of Zhennan is a thief, and he cannot be regarded as the prince of the Qing Dynasty.
Therefore, Yuxiang is still ready to write a letter to the Qing court to report the current situation, although Yuxiang knows that Yunnan is dispensable in the eyes of those officials in the Qing court, but the face project still has to be done.
Although Yuxiang will not ask Li Zhongju, the king of Zhennan, for assistance, it does not mean that other officials will not ask Li Zhongju for help.
On the sixth day of Yuxiang's defeat, Green had already taken a third of Yunnan, and the news finally reached the ears of Li Yi, the governor of Guangxi.
Li Yi was shocked, so he immediately sent a report to Li Zhongju, the king of Zhennan, to report the incident. Li Yi looked at Yunnan with deep eyes, and the foreign devil was looking for death in another place.
After Li Zhongju received the news, he sighed a long sigh in his heart, he was a hard worker, the day before yesterday he had just received that Li Ran and Zhao Peng had completed all the things that needed to be dealt with in Fujian, and Li Zhongju ordered the two to establish a military base in Fujian to prepare for various challenges in the future. And now it's happening.
Li Zhongju immediately asked Li Yi to prepare the grain and grass needed for the army, and at the same time gave an order to Guizhou Governor Li Yaoshan to send people to Guangxi to transport ammunition.
After dealing with these, Li Zhongju began to think about something else, and when he thought of the county lord of the Qing Dynasty in the post station, Li Zhongju frowned slightly.
The Yiyang county lord in the post station was very dishonest, although Li Zhongju didn't want to ask her what she wanted to do, but Li Zhongju still made people pay attention. I didn't care anymore. Li Zhongju wants to see what a little woman can do in the end.
Li Zhongju silently calculated in his heart how many people he needed to bring over this time to pacify Yunnan.
In the end, Li Zhongju decided to leave 500 people in the independent regiment to protect the safety of Wang Fu and Wang Wu and Xiaomei. At the same time, Li Zhongju, the most elite 200 people in the purple-clothed army, also let Xiaomei use it to protect the safety of herself and Wang Wu.
This time, Li Zhongju decided to take the 2,500 men of the Independent Regiment with the First Brigade and Huang Feihong's special army Huya Commando.
The Huya Commando was established by Huang Feihong under the guidance of Li Zhongju and Li Ran after the Battle of Wuyi Mountain, with a total of 500 of the best soldiers, and the Huya Commando have certain martial arts.
Any member of the Huya Commando is the elite of the elite, and Huang Feihong also put in a lot of effort, and the treatment of the team members is also very high. An ordinary team member is equivalent to the treatment of other armies at the company level.
Li Zhongju looked at Wang Wu's reluctant eyes, and still ordered, "Wu, you wait for me, I will definitely rush back as soon as possible." ”
Wang Wu nodded vigorously, trying not to make himself cry.
Li Zhongju said to Xiaomei again, "Xiaomei this time, you won't go, you are staying in the palace, I have already given an order to Naruto, so that he will only obey your orders." At the same time, you must pay attention to protect the safety of yourself and Wang Wu. ”
Xiaomei nodded solemnly, "Brother, rest assured, Xiaomei will not let you down." ”
Li Zhongju finally gritted his teeth and left, and Li Zhongju and Zhou Tiezhu led the 2,500 men of the independent regiment towards the camp outside the city, where Li Zhongju had to rush to join Liu Jiang's 1st Brigade.
As for Huang Feihong's Huya Commando, it was further west, and when Li Zhongju's army passed by, they could converge.
At this time, Liu Jiang had already received the news that the army was going west to Yunnan, and Liu Jiang had already prepared everything an hour ago. He stood in front of the camp and quietly waited for Li Zhongju's arrival.
Sure enough, Liu Jiang didn't wait long, Li Zhongju led the independent regiment to the front of the camp, and when Liu Jiang saw Li Zhongju, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Humble to the commander, the commander of my first brigade has all been assembled and can set off at any time." ”
Li Zhongju nodded, "Liu Jiang, you have worked hard, the army will set off immediately, and the sooner we arrive in Yunnan, the sooner we can join the battle, and the sooner we can rescue the people of Yunnan." ”
Liu Jiang was in awe, "It's the commander." ”
Liu Jiang then ordered all the officers and men of the First Brigade to set off immediately, and all the soldiers were carrying S1 rifles, and there were three or five people carrying M1 machine guns, as well as vehicles specially pulling various cannons.
Three hours later, everyone arrived at the camp where Huang Feihong's Huya Commando was located. Li Zhongju ordered the army to rest for an hour before setting off, and at the same time, Li Zhongju summoned Huang Feihong and explained the matter to Huang Feihong.
Huang Feihong understood what Li Zhongju meant, and he himself led the Huya Commando to act independently, specifically looking for scattered British troops in Yunnan to raid. Huang Feihong immediately agreed, but all this will wait until the army enters Yunnan before starting the operation.
Subsequently, the 9,000-strong army marched towards Guangxi, and along the way it was majestic and high-spirited. People can't help but admire, and people can't help but trust.
All the soldiers were full of confidence, they followed the king of Zhennan to fight, and they had never lost, and they had never been in the bag. They are proud to be part of the Zhenwu Army.
Six days later, the army entered Guangxi Province, but the climate and environment in Guangxi and Guangdong were similar, so many people were still able to adapt.
Three days later, the Zhenwu army entered Nanning Mansion, Li Yi led many officials in Guangxi to welcome the arrival of the army, Li Zhongju patted Li Yi on the shoulder, "Li Yi, you have worked hard, you see that you have lost a lot of weight." ”
Li Yi said again and again, "The prince is serious, Li Yi can contribute to Huaxia, why do you have to work hard." The prince has been tired all the way, please in the city. ”
Later, Li Zhongju ordered the army to be stationed outside the city, and he entered the city with Zhou Tiezhu, Liu Jiang, Huang Feihong and others.
Li Zhongju and the others obviously found that the people in the city were living very well, just like the people they met along the way, which showed that Li Yi was indeed working hard.
At the dinner table, Li Yi reported some things in Guangxi to Li Zhongju in detail, and at the same time told Li Zhongju that he was ready for grain and grass.
Subsequently, Li Zhongju transferred a total of 5,000 soldiers and horses from all over Guangxi to prepare to enter Yunnan together. After all, 9,000 people are relatively small. At this time, Li Zhongju's army totaled 14,000.
On the second day, Li Zhongju bid farewell to Li Yi, and at the same time explained that Li Yi must continue to prepare sufficient military supplies to prevent them from being insufficient in the future.
Li Zhongju also didn't know how long it would take to return to Yunnan this time. Li Zhongju had a hunch that this war would never end easily.
