Chapter 90: Reinforcements Depart

For a team of tens of thousands of people, eating was also a huge project, and it took more than an hour for all the soldiers to finish their meals.

It's no wonder that there is no oil and water in the dishes, and so many people have to be fed every day, and the cost of food alone is an unknown expense, let alone the purchase of those armaments and weapons.

Marshal, although he is the commander of a province, it is true that feeding the army is an extremely money-burning and material-burning thing.

This general soldier is not a hypocritical person, he solved the meal by dividing five by two, and when he saw the ninth uncle who was thinking, he said with some curiosity.

"This master, aren't you hungry?"

"Oh, I'm sorry Lord Commander, Lin came to the provincial capital for the first time and came to the barracks for the first time."

Uncle Nine came back to his senses, said hello, and responded with a smile.

"It's okay, it's okay, when the soldiers finish eating and carrying supplies, we will set off, and the first and second regiments are ready to go out to fight the troops, and they should stay in Shicheng County for a while."

The chief soldier waved his hand and said indifferently.

When Uncle Nine heard this, he began to lower his head and pick up the dishes.

A bite of steamed buns and a bite of vegetables, the taste is also sweet.

After a while, he ate all the food in his hand.

Then he put the rice jar aside, got up and walked out of the school field with the general soldiers.

"It took you a lot of time to come to the provincial capital from Taiping Town, right?"

While walking the general soldier, he chatted with Uncle Nine.

Uncle Nine glanced at the chief soldier, and then said slowly.

"One night, two more hours..."

When the chief soldier heard Uncle Nine say this, he couldn't help but stop, not knowing whether the old master in front of him had answered wrong, or if he had asked the wrong question, so he couldn't help but ask more.

"One night, two more hours?"

Uncle Nine nodded when he heard the chief soldier ask.

"How is it possible, it is more than 200 kilometers to Taiping Town here, and it is horse-drawn carriages and cars, and when the road is clear, it can barely have such a speed."

The general soldier's face was full of disbelief, this is too nonsense.

If the person in front of him is lying, Shicheng County has no banditry, and he mobilized two regiments at once, and he was punished by the marshal for such a troubled thing!

Uncle Nine saw through the thoughts of the general soldier, and he didn't explain much, his lips moved, and he silently recited the law.

Then his footsteps were light, but as soon as the chief soldier's eyes were closed and opened, Uncle Nine was already standing more than ten meters away.

He bowed his hand to the general soldier from afar.

"Now you can believe that it took me one night and two hours to get to the provincial capital, right?"

The chief soldier was obviously well-informed, and he admired Uncle Jiu's hand, and he also returned the salute.

"It turns out that the master is a strange man, but Gu is too careful!"

Uncle Nine had a smile on his face.

"It's okay, it's okay, but Lin sincerely thanks the chief soldier for being willing to believe Lin's words and save the hundreds of thousands of people in Shicheng County!"

Seriously, if it weren't for Uncle Jiu meeting this chief soldier, I'm afraid it would be a question of whether he could even see the marshal, and nine times out of ten he would be questioned and targeted by all kinds of dogs under the marshal.

Even if he finally met the commander, he would definitely have lost a lot of time, and he would not be as quick as the general soldier came forward.

"Shicheng County is the county seat of my Hunan Province, and the people of Shicheng County are also residents of my Hunan Province, we can't sit idly by, this Liangzi, we have formed a relationship with Hubei Province!"

The two continued to walk and talk.

The general soldier directly revealed some information.

"During this time, the marshal imported a lot of advanced firearms from the Dongying island country, and the marshal of Hubei Province was ready to move, and we had a warning that there would always be a battle."

"The two provinces are fighting each other, won't the central government blame them?"

Uncle Nine asked suspiciously, he really didn't know much about politics.

"The central government will turn a blind eye to this kind of petty fight, their central army is not as strong as our local army, and when facing foreign enemies, it even needs to coordinate our local army to intervene, let alone have any control over us, but we will fight and fight, and this will not prevent us from being external."

The chief soldier patiently explained.

Nowadays, the warlords in the provinces are friendly with each other, and they are also at odds with each other, and small-scale conflicts occur all the time.

The central government turns a blind eye to small fights, and when there is a large-scale armed operation, the central government will intervene and act as a peacemaker to coordinate.

All in all, there are no big battles, but there are constant small battles, at least on the surface, it is this state of balance.

Uncle Nine nodded, indicating that he understood.

Now in this situation, he can only kill demons and eliminate harm for the people.

While chatting and walking, the two soon came to the barracks located on the outskirts of the city.

At this time, the team of more than 2,000 people had been assembled and divided into two phalanxes, the first regiment and the second regiment.

These two are also one of the elite main regiments under the commander.

The chief soldier conducted a review, and Uncle Nine stayed quietly aside.

After a series of processes of review and number reporting, the team was officially opened.

The first regiment was in front, the material wagons of the baggage battalion were in the center, and the second regiment was finished.

The mighty procession drove towards the main road outside the city, which aroused the discussion of the citizens of Shashi.

"The marshal has transferred troops, isn't there a war?"

"It's possible that the corps of the provincial government hasn't changed for months."

"I just don't know what went wrong this time."

"Hey, what do you care about so much, anyway, there must be something on the edge of the backwoods..."

There was a lot of discussion around, and the citizens didn't talk about it for the time being.

The team here is fully equipped, and the discipline is obviously much better than that of the bandits.

The neat and tidy team is also quite imposing.

"How is the general army going to attack Shicheng County?"

Uncle Nine walked in the middle of the line with his hands behind his back and the general soldier.

The chief soldier tilted his head and said with some amusement.

"It's okay to bully and bully the common people by the militia bandits, but against our regular army, that is, to shoot lanterns in the pit - to find, without any planning, just push it flat."

There was a strong self-confidence in the words of the general soldier, and it was no wonder that he was inflated, although the militia bandits were well-trained compared to ordinary residents, but for this kind of regular army, their laziness and looting were doomed to be unsuccessful.

Just like bandits, when they encounter a zombie, they are directly defeated, and it is not those who are bitten to death by the zombie Taoist who defeat them, but more of the fear in their hearts.

If you change to a commander-in-chief regular army, you will definitely not be defeated all the way, discipline, training, equipment, these three elements determine the combat effectiveness of a unit.

Uncle Nine nodded, feeling a lot more relieved.

I hope that during this time, the townspeople of Taiping Town can spend it safely, survive the day, and everything will be fine when the army arrives.

And at the same time.

The town of Taiping is exceptionally quiet.

In Taiping Town after the war, all the township warriors who fought the main battle were resting.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the weapons of the village warriors and bandits who died in battle on their own side collected more than 200 weapons and some corresponding ammunition
