Section 111 The First Arrival in Your Land
readx;
The resumption of the war in the southern part of the Eastern Continent once again attracted the attention of the countries of the Eastern Continent, and the Maqi Khans secretly crossed the steep and steep Gaoligong Mountains, thus breaking through the western barrier of Northern Romanesia, which was regarded as a natural moat, so that the Northern Romanesia region occupied by the Lin family with great effort was suddenly exposed to the swords and guns of the Maqi Khans。 Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"These guys are still reacting very quickly, we are just a step slower, and we will succeed!" Standing at the head of Kanteng City, where the beacon fire was scattered with blood, Pu Tiancheng wrapped his hands around him, and took back his deep gaze with a little regret, "It seems that there are no vain people under the fame, and the Lin family still has some talents." ”
The general standing behind Pu Tiancheng continued: "Well, the Lin family's army in Northern Romanesia is indeed not to be underestimated, and we also fought very hard in the battle of Kanten City, and we were almost broken by them, which is very different from the original Jemelo and Yuejing army." ”
"Well, of course it's different, Lin Guoxiong has been spanning for decades, if he hadn't had a few moments, I'm afraid he would have been wiped out a long time ago, where would it be his turn to sit firmly in the position of the Sanjiang military and political envoy?"
"What does the general seem to have on his mind?" while carefully observing the manager's face, he inquired about the manager's tone.
"Hmm, this Lin family's army can drag us back like this, I didn't expect Lin Yunfei to be able to endure this breath, and let us swallow Kanten City and retreat to Neil City, which is really a bit unexpected to me. Pu Tiancheng always thought that this was Lin Yunfei's decision to withdraw his troops and return to defense, which made him deeply worried.
"The general, but do you think it's wrong to have a god?" The general in military uniform standing behind him couldn't help but ask, why was the general worried when he had won the battle?
"Hmph, isn't that wrong? Sighing softly, Pu Tiancheng didn't pay attention to the other party, just walked slowly on the city wall, and the generals in uniform behind him had to hold back the doubts in their hearts and follow behind him step by step.
"What I arranged for you to do, do you go to do it?" looked indifferent, Pu Tiancheng put down his hand and changed it to carry it forward.
"Well, I've already gone through it. The man in uniform quickly replied.
"You do it yourself!" Pu Tiancheng did not look back, but his tone was much heavier, "Be sure to implement it quickly!"
The man in uniform shook his whole body, and seemed to understand, "My subordinates will go and supervise it immediately." ”
"Hmph, these guys are just some people who see the wind and rudder, do you think they are willing to support us? Right now, we are powerful, and the Lin family does have some policies that are not quite their appetite, so they will support us so much, but now the Lin family has retracted back to Neil City, and now they are firmly holding the big mouth, the logistics supply problem is already our lifeblood, if we can't solve this problem properly, I think we have to decide how we die!" Pu Tiancheng's tone suddenly turned extremely harsh, and the man in uniform broke out in a cold sweat behind him.
"You also know the road situation from the Gaoligong Mountains, how much we have paid, don't you know? How many residents are in Kanten City? Where does the food they rely on come from? We are now squeezing in nearly 60,000 people at once, and you can imagine this logistical supply problem!" The tone slowly changed to relaxation, and Putian sighed, just one step away, if the enemy army is entangled under Kanten City for another day or two, he will have a great chance of taking Neil City in one fell swoop, if that is the case, the situation will be very different all of a sudden, where is there any need to worry about logistics and supply problems here?
"The subordinates understand, and the subordinates will do it immediately. The man in uniform no longer dared to slack off, and hurriedly agreed.
The carriage finally drove out of Longdong City, although the military discipline of the Taiping army was still good, but the lower-level officials guarding the city gate had vaguely followed the old habits of the imperial era , repeatedly asked why a single woman surnamed dared to go out boldly without being accompanied by family members and only two servants, but fortunately, when she went out, she had already considered all kinds of troubles, and Sophia, who was disguised, completely became an ordinary middle-aged woman, and the two attendants were also one of Situ Yushuang's henchmen and guards, and the other was one of Situ Yushuang's two personal maids.
A few gold coins fully demonstrated its function, and the guards who received the gold coins immediately changed their attitudes, said a polite word, and politely wished the group a safe journey, and generously signaled them to open the way, which made Sophia feel a lot. It seems that the Taiping people are not as noble and selfless as they imagined, at least from the current point of view, it is not clear to the upper class, but these guards at the lower level have begun to "borrow" those bad habits from the original imperial rule.
Although he doesn't understand military affairs, he can see that the defense of Longdong City is still very tight, the soldiers of the guards at the head of the city come and go to patrol non-stop, and the road from Tianshui is also constantly scouting, at least on the city gate for those suspicious people are still quite strict, even if you send a few gold coins, I am afraid that it will not solve the problem, but a traveler like himself who does not have many doubts can speed up the efficiency of work.
From Longdong Mansion City to the first checkpoint to the northwest- - Partridge Pass is a full two hundred miles away, during which it passes through three market towns, which now seem to be in a strange vacuum, and fearing an attack by the Northwest Army, which has already occupied Partridge Pass, the Taiping Sect also relinquished its right to rule over this area, and has neither sent troops nor officials, and the northwest side seems to feel that the dispatch of officials is not justified, so it adopts a laissez-faire attitude, and the administration of the three market towns in this area is of course in the hands of some gentry in this area.
Although this area belongs to the two regions, the reconnaissance units and spy personnel on both sides are quite active, and the local gentry who hold the administrative power in this area are also pretending to be deaf and dumb, trying not to offend the people on both sides, and trying to meet the demands of the personnel on both sides, after all, going against the will of either side may bring disaster to their own family and even the entire market town, and only in this way can they survive in the gap between these two forces.
When Sophia and her entourage drove through the town to the majestic Partridge Pass, it was already the evening of the next day, the towering city walls and watchtowers looked more magnificent in the sunset, and seeing the soldiers guarding the pass made Sophia and her party feel an indescribable sense of intimacy, although they only stayed in the jurisdiction of the Taiping Army for a short period of three or five days, but in these three or five days, people were always worried, for fear that something would happen, then no one could recover, fortunately, finally arrived safely in the northwest defense area, although it belonged to the northwest military and political festival envoy territory, but after all, it belonged to the territory of the empire, and the orders of the empire could generally pass here。
As soon as she stepped into the territory of the Northwest Army, Sophia felt different from the rest of the way along the way. Although the Partridge checkpoint is guarded by the Northwest Army, it is not the army soldiers who check the passing merchants and travelers, but the patrol officers of the police station of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, of course, there are also some people who secretly observe the passers-by, it is estimated that they should be personnel from other privileged departments, although they can't see anything in their party, but Sophia estimates that the appearance of these people has been imprinted in the minds of people with hearts.
Although the patrol officers are very responsible and meticulous in their work, the team did not have much difficulty in the past business travel, but was quite enthusiastic, so that the past business travelers also felt a different experience from other parts of the empire with active cooperation, and Sophia and her party were also quite touched.
After staying at Partridge Pass, while it was not completely dark, Sophia simply took the two of them around for a walk.
Although Partridge Pass is a military fortress, and it almost experienced a war a few months ago, after the Northwest Army took over the management of this fortress, the fleeing people quickly returned to their homes, and because of the special surname of the geographical location of this pass at this time, and the soldiers stationed far more than before, many small merchants from Bonan and Longdong also flocked here, and soon, the prosperity here exceeded any time before, and even the commander of the Fifth Division of the Northwest Army Corps, who was responsible for the defense of Partridge Pass, also felt a little difficult to deal with, and had to deal with itHe seconded some managers of the administrative affairs of the Standing Committee from Bonan Province and recruited some grassroots personnel from among the local people, so that he could barely cope with the affairs of the Standing Affairs.
In addition to the field and its vicinity, almost all the streets have been bought or rented by traders from all over the place, tens of thousands of garrisons are enough to salivate the daily necessities of the merchants, not to mention that the Partridge Pass is located at the throat of this westward journey, although Longdong is now controlled by the Taiping army, but it has not forbidden business travel, this complex situation has contributed to the abnormal prosperity of this fortress.
After a brief stroll, Sophia found that in addition to being quite prosperous, the security situation was quite good, and there were people coming and going on the streets, but there were almost no soldiers in the army, which made Sophia even more surprised, which also made Sophia more interested in the king of the northwest who ruled the entire northwest and the main officials under him, how did they rule this piece of land in the minds of the princes and nobles who were far away in Yanjing or a strange and desolate land?
