Yue Kun immediately replied: This matter is handed over to me by the eldest brother, I have more than 220 people in the selection and transfer of the army, the best qualifications, envoys and ordinary soldiers, and at the same time, plus the civilian youth who signed up around Chuzhou, a total of about 270 people, as the first phase of the Wutang martial arts intensive training, it is initially set for two years, so that they can be included in the army to do things, so that our army will have more than 200 low-level officers!

Gao Huaiyuan is very satisfied with their efficiency, at present, in addition to Hua Yue's martial arts in Beijing is vigorously opened, but also ordered all parts of the general department to hold a martial arts lecture hall on the spot, recruiting young and strong people in the army to teach martial arts, the current reaction in various places is not in favor, some people are procrastinating, only Chuzhou has the fastest progress, has begun to implement this matter, so for the future of the army's professional professionalization and specialization of the army will also play a very good role, in the end it is a sworn brother! They know their own thoughts best. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Gao Huaiyuan nodded and said: In this way, I have nothing to ask, the details of this Northern Expedition, I have ordered Huayue to personally write, let the soldiers in the army accompany him to cooperate with him, compiled a record, summarized the various gains and losses of the battle against Li Quan and even the Mongolian army, today I have brought a copy with me, just give it to you to watch, eldest brother, second brother, you are all familiar with military books, you can also lead the army this time to deal with some of the deficiencies in the war, I hope to give a comment!

In addition, there are a lot of lessons to learn from, I hope you can also learn from them in the future, so as not to suffer a big loss when you face the Mongolian army in the future!

Saying that, Gao Huaiyuan ordered Li Ruohu to take a pile of printed books and handed them to Meng Heng, Yue Kun and others, who immediately took it and saw a few big characters written on the cover, "Baoqing Northern Expedition Record", so they quickly opened it and read it.

Don't be in a hurry for the time being, you and my brother haven't seen you for a long time, it's not too late for you to read this book in your leisure time after you go back, now let's discuss the matter of quelling the chaos in Lizhou this time! Gao Huaiyuan immediately said to them.

As soon as this matter was mentioned, the three of them became interested, and after collecting the book, they all quarreled again to follow Gao Huaiyuan westward to Lizhou Road.

Brother Meng, you don't need to say more, you can't follow me! Now that you are the commander of the western part of the city, how can you leave this place without permission? What's more, you have the highest prestige in the army here, and many things still need you to take charge of in order to effectively promote the development of various affairs, so Brother Meng must not leave Chuzhou! Gao Huaiyuan was the first to veto Meng Hui's request, and said with a smile to Meng Hui.

Meng Hui was immediately discouraged, thinking about it, it was also the truth, so he had to accept his fate and said: Since this is the case, it seems that Brother Wei will only stay this time! At present, I am carrying out the matter of Gwangju (Huangchuan) Tuntian, and it is indeed not easy to leave this place now, and now the Zhongshun Army under the jurisdiction of the fourth brother is expanding, recruiting 10,000 new troops, and has gone to Gwangju Tuntian, I am worried that the Jin people will stop the advancement of this matter, and I am afraid that I will have to stay here! Once the Jin army invades the south because of this, I'm afraid I will have to lead the troops to fight against the Jin army!

It is true that the Gwangju garrison army must indeed speed up the advancement, although the Zhongshun army is subordinate to the Chuzhou Metropolitan Division, but it can be regarded as an army of its own, and its food and salary are not as good as those of the garrison army, and if it is not self-sufficient in tuntian, I am afraid that the military resources will be difficult to sustain! But you don't have to worry too much about Jin Guo's reaction, I'm afraid they don't have the strength to commit it right now, just strengthen your vigilance! The Western Xia Kingdom has now basically been wiped out by the Mongol army, only their lord has surrendered, and the Jin State is now threatened by the Mongol army on both sides in the northwest, forgive him for not daring to use troops against our dynasty at this time! Gao Huaiyuan nodded and analyzed.

Indeed, although our loyal army has achieved war merits with the boss's Northern Expedition, after all, it was the new army recruited by Lord Meng back then, and the food and salary given by the imperial court were insufficient. It's not fair! When Huang Yan heard this, he poured bitter water.

Gao Huaiyuan smiled and said: You guy knows how to complain, but you don't say that when I came back this time, I also gave you a thousand good horses, otherwise, how about you use these war horses in exchange for food and salary from your eldest brother? Gao Huaiyuan immediately asked with a smile at Huang Yan.

That's not going to happen! You must know that this time our loyal army followed the boss to fight Li Quan, fight the Mongolian Tartars, and the cavalry that was finally formed was quite large, and these war horses were compensated by the boss to our loyal army, how could they be exchanged for grain and grass? That's it! Let's figure it out ourselves! Hey! Huang Yan stopped doing it when he heard this, and hurriedly waved his hand.

The losses of the Loyal Shun Army this time are indeed not small, but the batch of soldiers who came back have gone to the school to inspect me, and they have become much more powerful, and their combat strength is definitely different from before. Meng Hui also continued.

After everyone chatted for a while, Gao Huaiyuan said to Huang Yan: You have a lot of loyal troops now, this time I will go to Lizhou, and you will send another 5,000 soldiers and horses to accompany me to quell the chaos! By the way, reduce the stress on this place! Gao Huaiyuan said to Huang Yan.

Huang Yan suddenly became happy again, and immediately stood up and said: The boss is still good to me, and if there is a good thing, he will think of me! Ha ha! I have already prepared soldiers and horses, and I can go to Lizhou to quell the chaos with the boss at any time! Tomorrow morning, I will cross the river to transfer troops, and the day after tomorrow, I will lead the troops to go out with the boss!

Yue Kun stopped doing it as soon as he heard this, and immediately stood up and shouted: No way! The third brother had already taken the fourth brother with him on the Northern Expedition last time, why didn't you let me go to Lizhou with the third brother this time to have some training? You must know that I haven't fought a few battles now, how can I exercise my skills!

Gao Huaiyuan said with a smile: Second brother, don't be impatient, I haven't finished my words yet! Lizhou Road has not been repaired in recent years, and the armament is much more deserted, and the current strength of the deputy capital of Lizhou Road is very lacking, in a short period of time, if you want to revitalize the military equipment of Lizhou Road, I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to do it even if I am a god, so this time I plan to transfer 10,000 soldiers and horses from Chuzhou to Lizhou Road to garrison, and enrich the strength of the deputy capital of Lizhou Road, and as far as I can see, the Mongolian army is now about to destroy the Western Xia Kingdom, and their territory will soon border our Lizhou Road, If Lizhou Road can't be improved in a short period of time, I'm afraid there will be a big trouble at that time! Therefore, I also want to transfer my second brother to Lizhou Road this time to do things and strengthen Lizhou's defense strength!

So this time, big brother, I'm afraid you want to help me, send 10,000 elite soldiers to me, and take them to Lizhou Road to quell the chaos together! I don't know if the eldest brother is willing to give up these 10,000 elite soldiers?

Meng Hui didn't hesitate at all, and nodded and said: What is the problem? I have already heard about the affairs of Lizhou, and I have been paying attention to the war between Mongolia and the Western Xia Kingdom, and I am worried about this matter, our Chuzhou Metropolitan Division is relatively full of soldiers, not to mention the transfer of 10,000 people to Lizhou Road, even if it is to transfer 20,000 people to Lizhou to station, I have no opinion!

Thank you big brother for your support, then this matter is settled! Tomorrow, you will arrange it, the Zhongshun Army will send 5,000 troops, and the Metropolitan Commander will transfer 10,000 troops, and go to Lizhou with me to quell the rebellion. Gao Huaiyuan immediately thanked Meng Heng.

The four brothers talked for a while in the post house, and did not leave until late at night, and at dawn the next day, Huang Yan rushed back to Jiangbei and began to be busy with the transfer of troops and generals, preparing to accompany Gao Huaiyuan to Lizhou.

And Meng Heng and Yue Kun were also busy with their own work, and selected the front army and the Xuanfeng army under the jurisdiction of the Chuzhou Metropolitan Command Division, supplemented by two strong crossbow battalions, and mobilized a total of 10,000 elite soldiers and handed them over to Gao Huaiyuan to command, and ordered Yue Kun to lead the Xuanfeng army, and sent a deputy general named Zheng Bingjie to lead the front army, which was attributed to Gao Huaiyuan's command, so far the Lizhou counterinsurgency soldiers and horses were basically determined.

Gao Huaiyuan personally in Chuzhou to point the school with him to Lizhou soldiers and horses, although there are only 10,000 people, but standing on the school field, it also looks very majestic, Gao Huaiyuan after seeing the spirit of these generals, his heart secretly sighed that Meng Heng is really a famous general in history, after he drilled out of the 10,000 Song army, it is really very strong, after the entire school field 10,000 people stand still, except for the occasional horse will snort, everyone is silent, the whole school field is very quiet, completely in the army order to prohibit this.

Gao Huaiyuan was very satisfied with this army of soldiers and horses, knowing that Meng Hui did not hide it this time, but handed over his elite soldiers and horses to himself, so his evaluation of Meng Hui was also at a higher level.

When the country is in crisis, it is very rare for a person like Meng Heng to not hide his selfishness, if the Song army is like a general like Meng Heng to control the soldiers and horses, what country dares them Song people?

In order to make the soldiers and horses march faster, Gao Huaiyuan specially ordered these soldiers not to bring their families to Lizhou Road, and did not inform them that after the westward trip to Lizhou Road, they would settle in Lizhou Station, so after a short period of preparation, Gao Huaiyuan announced the start of the army on the third day.

Meng Hui and other people who stayed behind went out of Chuzhou to see each other off, Gao Huaiyuan also abandoned the boat, and went to Lizhou Road by land with the army, but before leaving Chuzhou, Gao Huaiyuan sent Li Ruohu with 200 personal soldiers to go back to Crouching Tiger Village in Daye County first, and returned from Daye in two days, bringing back more than 100 young Xiangyong, who were directly incorporated into his personal escort army, and went to Lizhou with him.

However, these more than 100 Xiangyong who came from Crouching Tiger Village, accompanied by more than a dozen carts, each cart hit a huge wooden box, no one knows what is inside, Gao Huaiyuan does not say, naturally no one dares to inquire, these vehicles are closely guarded by Gao Huaiyuan's personal soldiers in the Chinese army, no one is allowed to approach without authorization, and at the same time they also brought dozens of fierce dogs, these fierce dogs are very obedient to their master's orders, rarely barking wildly, so that the people in the army are all surprised, I don't know if Gao Huaiyuan still has a habit of playing with dogs.

Like Gao Huaiyuan, Meng Heng has always been strict in governing the army, so after this army was handed over to Gao Huaiyuan, it could basically meet Gao Huaiyuan's requirements for military orders, and did not harass the place along the way, but ordered to prohibit it, stay day and night, and the marching speed was quite fast, just ten days, it walked out of hundreds of miles and entered the territory of Guizhou, so there is not much distance from Lizhou.

What Gao Huaiyuan didn't expect was that during this period of time, the situation in Lizhou has also changed a lot, the rebels under the leadership of the rebel general Zhang Tong, the expansion is very rapid, they take advantage of the local people dissatisfied with the government's oppression, and have captured a lot of county towns and prefectures, for a time it has developed to the scale of forty or fifty thousand people, so that the local government can not resist, as a last resort, Zheng Yi had to mobilize the Xingyuan Prefecture and the Jinzhou Metropolitan Division into Lizhou to quell the chaos, but these two people were also defeated one after another, I really can't figure out why the Song army on the Sichuan side is so vulnerable, and actually let the rebels defeat them one after another.
