Although autumn does not dawn at five o'clock as in summer, it is now only six o'clock.
The two military camps in the mountain nest have already started to light fires and cook, the Huaxia army is going to attack Yuncheng, and Zhao Weiwei, who has barely slept all night, has also decided to see how these cowhide blowing up the sky can take Yuncheng in one day!
The same is the camp, but the disparity between the two is too great, it can be said that it is the difference between North Korea and South Korea, after the wake-up horn sounded, the soldiers of the Huaxia Army began to wash and brush their teeth in an orderly manner, including which auxiliary defense forces also know to take a toothbrush and look at the mouth to stuff, but what are the officers and soldiers doing? Either stand between the camps of the two armies and look at the Huaxia military camp with their heads bowed, or sit in the corner in a daze with their heads down!
After the Huaxia Army finished washing up and started morning training, running and doing basic training, the officers and soldiers were watching or in a daze, the Huaxia Army began to eat, the big fish and meat were gobbling up, and the officers and soldiers were drooling or holding a bowl of gruel in a daze!
"Why is this Huaxia army so fat, more than 2,000 people, all white rice, white steamed buns, and fish and meat, three dishes and one soup, this, how is this possible?" Zhao Weiwei looked at the table in front of him and didn't believe that this was Huaxia Army's food.
"General, it's true, the Huaxia soldiers sent a total of ten of these set meals, saying that they wanted the generals to taste the skills of their cooks, and they originally thought that these meals might only be for the officers to eat, but I didn't expect the soldiers who delivered the meals to say that they ate the same way, and there was nothing special about the food in the Huaxia Army. Only their big chief will open a small stove! ”
Zhao Weiwei was stunned, how thick is the net worth of this so-called chief surnamed Lu. His army could only drink a little gruel a day, and even then it was good. How is it possible for them to know how much more than 2,000 troops have to eat in a day, and how much money they have!
At eight o'clock in the morning, the Huaxia army began to pull out the camp and send troops, the target was directly aimed at Yuncheng, and they had already shocked Liang Ping's report: the intelligence had been obtained, there was no obstacle along the way, and the army could set off!
The officers and men walked very leisurely behind the Huaxia army, although everyone was very curious and talked about the vehicles. Even Zhao Weiwei was very curious and wanted to go up and feel it, but he was embarrassed to be cheeky if he wasn't invited!
Riding on a horse and looking back at his army, Zhao Weiwei couldn't help but look angry, comparing goods to win people, people have to cut down compared to people, out of sight is clean, no matter how you look at people, they look like an officer and soldier, even the auxiliary defense army that does not wear a uniform behind it looks majestic. On the contrary, his veritable imperial court military horses look like a group of bandits and ruffians, and the real person makes him look at how to get angry.
"A bunch of rubbish!" Zhao Weiwei couldn't help but look at the few generals around him and scolded, these generals suddenly felt blushing, they knew why Shangguan was angry. So the big fish ate the small fish, the small fish ate the shrimp, and these officers began to wield horsewhips to manage their own men!
Kawaguchi Village. It is a small village close to the east of Yuncheng, and it is only ten miles away from Yuncheng. After more than three hours of rapid marching, Xie Xinghua rushed here to set up camp. At this time, the officers and soldiers were thrown ten miles away by him, and they were gasping for breath!
As the name suggests, Hekou Village is next to a river, called Yunju River, the source is Nanyang Lake and Weishan Lake in the southwest of Jining, across the river in front of you and then ten miles of road is another big river in Yuncheng, but also the famous Song River in later generations also known as Song Jin River! This river now serves as a moat on the east side of Yuncheng!
"The Song Jin River and the Yunju River converge in the northeast direction of Yuncheng and then turn around and finally flow to the Dongping Lake ...... in Liangshan", Xie Xinghua pointed to the map to give Tang Ping a geography general knowledge lesson, after all, he knows the most words here, and he is the one who knows the most to read the map, which is mainly due to the fact that he almost never leaves Luwang, asking for advice anytime and anywhere, although there are two other people who are also Ma Han and Zhao Mingyang, but Ma Han is a big old man, and Zhao Mingyang is now in charge of military discipline, and he is busy with military discipline and almost does not participate in military command meetings.
"Battalion commander, these are all photos of Yuncheng taken by us, now there are many dangers within ten miles of it, all of them are under martial law by anti-thieves, we can't get too close, these photos are taken from a distance"! Liang Ping looked tired, and a few bloodshots in his eyes were quite terrifying!
"The three directions of Yuncheng are very empty, which is convenient for the two armies to fight, that is, the width of the Songjin River in the east has reached an average of more than 200 meters, and it has become a natural moat in Yuncheng, and the rebels are still stationed on the opposite side to defend a team of men and horses, I have no way to cross the river, let alone think about such a large team!" Liang Ping looked at Xie Xinghua, who had been pondering, and continued
"Well, it's a problem", Xie Xinghua looked at the photo, and after a while, he checked the map, and several company commanders around him also frowned, obviously this natural moat made them feel difficult to overcome!
"It's better for us to bypass the Songjin River and attack from the north", although Zheng Hong on the side couldn't read the map, he could understand the general idea, and it was impossible for someone who had no boat or bridge to cross the river and start a war.
"North? But in this way, we will at least have to walk a hundred miles more, and I think that our swaggering march will definitely be discovered by the rebels, you must know that this is their territory, and it is enough for us to eat a pot of ambush in one place at will! The command rod in Xie Xinghua's hand slid around on the map in front of him.
"It would be nice if our big ship was here, sneaking past at night, even if it is discovered, it is not afraid, and when the searchlight shines, it is a live target", Hao Leile said hehehe
"It's useless to say something", Xie Xinghua glared at him and then looked at Liang Ping, "Are there any anti-army spies on this side of the river, have we been found now?" ”
"Spies, there are outposts, and we have killed a lot along the way, but it is estimated that our whereabouts now should not be known by the rebels, because my manpower is now blockading the east bank of the Songjin River, and Captain Ma has taken his men to support, it can be said that there are absolutely no spies coming in within five miles of the barracks, and even if they do, they will not be able to send the information over!" Liang Ping said very confidently, Xie Xinghua nodded with satisfaction!
"How many troops are stationed on the other side of the river?" Xie Xinghua picked up a photo and looked at it and asked, the photo was across the river to photograph the camp of the anti-army troops on the other side!
"Definitely no more than three hundred!" Liang Ping said, "We used a telescope to observe for more than an hour. Definitely not more than that."
"Oh, but three hundred. To put it bluntly, it's actually a small sentry, a herald. Immediately collect fishing boats on the east bank of the river, eat this sentry first, Tang Ping contacted Captain Ma, this battle needs his assistance! Tang Ping nodded, and the other company commanders also understood what Xie Xinghua meant, they needed to use the muskets of the guards to quickly extinguish this sentry!
The problem came, and to Xie Xinghua's great surprise, Mahan refused his request for assistance, and the reason was very sufficient, that is, the pro-guard team did not have much ammunition left. Good steel is used on the blade, so this little trouble should be solved by yourself!
"Damn, the guards are spoiled by Chief Lu! I don't believe that without Zhang Butcher, he won't be able to eat pork! Xia Yi, the commander of the second company who heard the news, was furious, he usually couldn't get used to Ma Han's style, and now he listed Ma Han as an unfriendly friend!
"Battalion commander, give this task to the second company, I am willing to make a military order and take this outpost within an hour!" Xia Yi said and saluted a standard military salute!
"Battalion Commander Xie, leave this task to our assistant defense soldiers. We can't just eat and not work! Zheng Hong on the side spoke, which made the crowd a little surprised!
"No, Commander Zheng, I know that you are sincere in your meritorious service, but this battle is very important. Your defense force is now under-equipped and unable to complete the mission effectively and quickly! Xie Xinghua shook his head and rejected Zheng Hong!
"Isn't it just a reunion, they are all gentlemen, and my defense army may not be much worse than your Huaxia army." Zheng Hong was a little unconvinced, this Xie Tian was always sneered at, and it was really uncomfortable. This intimate thing has to do some results!
Xie Xinghua smiled, walked over to Zheng Hong and patted him on the shoulder. "Commander Zheng, this is not a land charge that can be completed by relying on morale and troops, you see that this river is more than two hundred meters wide, and the narrowest place is nearly 100 meters, if you can spend it secretly, it's fine, but if it is discovered by the enemy on the way, then the two armies rely on seeing whose bow and arrow shoot fiercely! However, there are no long-range attack weapons in your auxiliary defense army, and even the newly established crossbow company only has ten training crossbows, and the others will have to wait for the young master to come back before they are distributed, so you better rest, hold your breath, and some battles in the back will give you breath! ”
"Hey!" Zheng Hong slapped his fist fiercely, sat on the chair and smoked, and Xia Yi on the side asked to fight again!
"Company Commander Xia doesn't need to worry, let's see how many boats we can recruit first, and then I'll go to Captain Ma to talk about it, if they participate in the war, we will have a better grasp!" Xie Xinghua walked out of the tent as he spoke.
Zhao Weiwei's officers and soldiers finally came, scattered around the Huaxia military camp to sit and watch the excitement, Zhao Weiwei just came to see the excitement today, so his baggage was still left in the camp by a thousand military horses to wait, and the two thousand military horses he led were here to gain knowledge, in case the knowledge is not good, he plans to pull out his legs and run!
"General, do you think they can really take Yuncheng in one day?" Zhao Weiwei stood on a slope, and one of the generals beside him asked in a low voice.
"Dream! If they can cross the Song Jin River today, even if they have the ability! Zhao Weiwei pouted, "Besides, if these idiots really want to cross the river, they will be really stupid!" ”
"Why did the general say that?" The generals on the side hurriedly asked!
"Hey! Why? Let me ask you, once they successfully cross the river, even if they take the team of men and horses outside the city, but Yuncheng is only a mile away from the Song Jin River, not to mention whether they can eliminate that man and horse before the reinforcements arrive, even if they do, the thousands of rebels will rush up, how can they resist? Just those 2,000 people? , and there is no retreat with the back of the river, then it is really the annihilation of the whole army! Saying this, Zhao Weiwei involuntarily touched the short beard of his chin, looking like he was under my control.
"General Yingming, it seems that these so-called Huaxia troops are going to be miserable, hehe, once they suffer defeat, we might as well take the opportunity...... Hehe", thinking of the fat oil and water of the Huaxia Army, these officers and soldiers laughed even more cheerfully! (To be continued......)
