357 Aboard!

The New Army camp was immediately in a state of chaos.

The sergeants quickly packed up - everything came suddenly, and it was too late to go home to say goodbye to their loved ones, so they had to entrust the literate in the army to simply scribble a few lines of letters.

Leather armor, iron armor, shields, long ge, swords, crossbows, arrows, and grass...... Basically, you can make it clear quickly.

The 10,000-strong army quickly assembled, lit torches under the leadership of the commanders, left the camp in the dark, and went straight to Ping'a Port.

It didn't take more than two hours before and after - that's a lot of speed!

The soldiers in the remaining camp quickly counted the tents, fire oil and other materials, loaded them as soon as possible, and transported them to Ping'a Port.

At dawn, 10,000 heavily armed Quyang New Army had assembled in Ping'a Harbor and could fight at any time!

At the port, dozens of huge sea ships are ready - it is the Ping'a Sailor. On the most magnificent flagship, Xiong Wuliang's Hou Qi waved in the wind, and Shaohu took a step forward and ordered loudly: "Board the ship!" ”

The appearance of the peony tiger dispelled the last doubts in the hearts of all the soldiers.

Hold the grass! It's time for a war!

A whispered chatter –

"Boarding the ship? Where to board? ”

"It doesn't seem to be at war with the Qin people......"

Although there was a lot of confusion in his heart, the military order was like a mountain - 10,000 sergeants lined up in several long columns and boarded the large ship of the sailors in an orderly manner.

In their hearts, there was a deep ecstasy!

It doesn't matter who you're fighting with...... As long as you fight, it means that you can make a profit! It means military merit! Meant reward!

As for defeat or something...... Joke, follow the lord to fight, how can there be such a thing as defeat?

……

Xiong Wuliang wore armor and sat in the top cabin of the flagship—in front of him were Zhao Hua, Shaohu, and Wu Yu, the commander of the Ping'a Water Division.

As for Zhong Hua...... did not go out with the army, but stayed in the Hou Mansion and continued to be his 'Hou Mansion Steward'.

Old Zhonghua is old, and it is time to stay in the rear to recuperate for the Xiong Wuliang town house that went on the expedition.

Xiong Wuliang simply appreciated: "Ping'a Water Master, it is not what it used to be." ”

Compared with the last time he took the naval warship, this time the Ping'a naval division was even more formidable - dozens of boats were all larger, about 1,500 tonnage, and from a distance they looked like a row of hills floating on the water.

Streamlined hull, high raised bow, low gang...... Undoubtedly, it means that Ping'a has a better understanding of the concept of 'sea boat'.

This is not surprising - Xiong Wuliang's requirements for sailors are to meet the most basic sea transportation capacity. The Chu people were already good at water warfare, and there were many ships coming and going in Ping'a Commercial Port, so that the design craftsmen of the sailor warships quickly accumulated experience in shipbuilding, especially in building sea ships.

Not only are the hulls of the warships of the Ping'a Naval Division more suitable for sailing on the sea, but the ordnance on these dozens of ships is also extremely sharp.

On this flagship under Xiong Wuliang's seat alone, there are 50 large siege bed crossbows and 20 fixed catapults—the firepower is ridiculously strong.

Wu Yu, the commander of the water division, excitedly arched his hand and said: "Don't dare to praise as a prince, the last general is willing to die for the prince!" ”

This Wu Yu was born in Yue, and when Xiong Wuliang followed Qu Ping to conquer the Yue Kingdom, he followed Xiong Wuliang back to the fiefdom...... At the beginning, he was also a commander in the predecessor of the Quyang New Army, the 'Quyang Army'.

Later, when Xiong Wuliang set up the Ping'a Water Division, he transferred some outstanding generals in the army to serve in the Water Division, and Wu Yu was one of the best.

Xiong Wuliang nodded, and then simply ordered: "The sailor sails and goes straight to Jimo!" ”

The order flag waved, and dozens of large ships full of soldiers sailed out of the harbor in the wind...... The fleet continued to accelerate, quickly sailed out of the Huaishui, entered the sea, and went north not far from the coastline, splashing snow-white waves.

……

The sailors of the Ping'a Sailor Division showed great kung fu, and dozens of large ships sailed smoothly on the sea, always maintaining a stable battle formation.

For this sea route, sailors are all too familiar -

From [Ping'a] to [Jimo], almost every sailor has made at least three round-trips - the reason why the fields of the King of Qi have been able to resist in Jimo for so long is almost entirely due to the supplies provided by the people of Chu on the sea route.

Otherwise, Jimo City would have been out of food under the siege of the Yan army, how could it hold out for so long?

Taking advantage of the fact that the sailors were still marching on the sea, and now that they finally had a short period of leisure, Xiong Wuliang simply elaborated to Zhaohua: "The Qin people are silent, Wei and Han seem to be looking forward to the Great Chu Horse, and the Zhao State and the Chu State do not border......

"Now the confrontation between Chu Yan is a foregone conclusion."

"The two great powers are next to each other, and sooner or later there will be a war!"

Zhao Hua was so smart that he immediately understood Xiong Wuliang's purpose, and couldn't help but widen his eyes in shock: "Is the prince going to war with Yan Guo?" ”

Xiong Wuliang waved his hand and said with a smile: "I am just a small Quyang Marquis of Chu State, how can I have the right to decide whether to go to war or not?" Besides, Yan Guo is 'allied' with my Great Chu, how can Ben Hou be the kind of person who has no faith and no righteousness? ”

"Ben Hou just wants to give King Qi some help in his field, and he has no intention of directly starting a war with Yan State."

Zhao Sliding looked at the black-bellied little lord, speechless for a while.

The soldiers have been pulled out, and they still say that it is not a war?

Xiong Wuliang smiled - in fact, he is not out of the nest, at least there are at least 10,000 'Xiao Cavalry' who are already worthy of a battle.

Of course, this strange soldier Xiong Wuliang does not intend to show up in front of the world easily - it is enough for the Quyang New Army to participate in this battle, and the Xiao Cavalry Army can continue to stay in the fiefdom for training.

If you want to keep this hole card, you may be able to give Qin Guo a 'surprise' in the future.

Xiong Wuliang was categorical: "Since sooner or later there will be a war between Chu and Yan, then it is better to fight late than early!" ”

"When Ben Hou presided over the ceremony in Yunmengze, he seemed to be angry when he saw Yan Ren."

"The Yan State has annexed a large area of the Qi State, and the war potential has been greatly enhanced - rather than waiting for the Yan State to subdue the hearts of the Qi people, digest the land, and turn this potential into strength...... It's better to start early! ”

"Ben Hou has already agreed with the king - King Yan will stay in Yunmengze for at least three months."

"With these three months of fighters, Ben Hou can help the fields and bring a big surprise to the arrogant Yan people!"

Zhao Hua's eyes widened - even with his quick thinking, he could only barely keep up with Xiong Wuliang's train of thought at this moment: "The meaning of the prince and the marquis, the minister has already understood. ”

"Since there is going to be a war, you must be fully prepared."

"I wonder what kind of effect the prince wants to achieve on the battlefield? What do you want to make Yan Guo look like, so that you can be considered to have fulfilled your mind? ”

Xiong Wuliang squinted his eyes and laughed, a hint of subtle cunning flashed in his eyes-

"Now the time is right - Ben Hou wants to help the Qi people recover the entire territory of Qi and beat the Yan people back to Liaodong!"

The words are amazing!
