"General, I am willing to fight with the general!"

For three days, Huo Qubing was in Liaoning to recruit his own troops.

Zhang Qi promised him 10,000 people, but the number of these 10,000 people is not fixed, 11,000 is also 10,000, 19,000 is also 10,000, as long as it is not 20,000, Huo Qubing can bring as many soldiers as he wants.

Although he was twenty-one or two, Huo Qubing had been in the army for many years, and when he was still a teenager, he was sent by Liu Che to the Weiqing Army for training, and now he can be called a veteran.

Although Zhang Qi gave him great autonomy, he should also have that cautiousness as a subordinate.

Huo Qubing didn't really go to so many troops to recruit, he wanted elite soldiers, an elite army that could follow him across the battlefield.

For this, the shock that Liaoning brought to Huo Qubing was really too great.

In his eyes, Liaoning's garrison, city gate order, militia, almost everyone can be called elite soldiers in terms of training, even his uncle's former guards are not as good as the training level of Liaoning soldiers.

In the Han region, ten monthly training is enough to afford the word elite soldiers, but in Liaoning, except for the militia's monthly training time is slightly shorter, almost all other soldiers have monthly training of more than 20 years.

Even the city gate ordered this kind of idle soldier to be trained for twenty days a month in Liaoning, and the training time was more than four hours.

Coupled with the equipment provided by the Liaoning Water Forging Workshop and the newly repaired steam engine forging workshop, Huo Quzhi had already guessed the final outcome of the Han Dynasty.

Not at all.

In terms of this equipment, the combat effectiveness of this source of troops, and the mobilization of this terrifying Liaodi, there is no comparison under Liu Che's rule.

Ultimately.

Huo Qubing chose Ah Liang as his deputy general, and Ah Liang, as the captain of the garrison army, has a thorough understanding of the source of the garrison.

It was also with Ah Liang's assistance that they only took three days to select the 6,000 Dragon Banner Army soldiers needed for this expedition.

Another 8,000 baggage teams were replenished, and 10,000 were assembled at the Liaoning Railway Station at noon the next day.

Different from the previous Han army system, in addition to the army, Shi, team, tun, qu, military candidate, and school captain, the soldiers in Liaodi also had a unique political guard.

Their role is to clarify the soldiers' will to fight, why they are fighting, who they are fighting for, and to mobilize the soldiers' enthusiasm for combat to regulate the existence of the soldiers' negative emotions.

For this position, Ah Liang and others have long been accustomed to it, although Huo Quzhi is puzzled, but once a son of heaven and a courtier, he has nothing to say, so he gladly accepts it.

On the straight and spacious platform, more than 14,000 people lined up and waited, even if there were so many people, the platform of Liaoning Railway Station was still empty.

At the front of the line, Huo Quzhi took out a round object about the size of his palm from his arms and glanced at it, and the three metal needles of different lengths in it showed the time at the moment.

12:03。

This was given to him by the other party when he discussed things with Hu Lu Qihu City Lord a few days ago.

There are four pieces in total.

It is said to be the latest product of the Tiangong Division Scientific Research Institute, which is used to compare time.

These four pocket watches, which are about the size of the palm of the hand, are experimental products, and Liaoning has not yet been put into use, and is ready to be used in the war in the Western Regions first.

Two of them belonged to the Longqi Army of Huo Quai's department, and the other two were to Huo Quai's trip to Juyanze and hand them over to Hu Shui.

"It's time to estimate, let the soldiers prepare."

"Understood."

Adjutant General Ah Liang nodded, and then turned around.

"Standing ——!"

Bang!

The sound of uniformity is the most exciting.

The workers working at the train station couldn't help but be shocked.

"A new army has been formed, and this spirit is worthy of being our sons and daughters of Liaodi."

"Yes, yes, I heard that it was ordered by the king himself, what is it called. Dragon Banner Army, look at this banner, it seems that the king has high expectations for this army. ”

"Eh, what you said, the Erlang army of our Liaodi is not what the king has high hopes for, if it weren't for these people who are brave, where would we have come from such tranquility in Liaodi!"

"Yes, yes, look at my stupid mouth."

"Don't talk, the train is coming, waving the flag, conveying the past."

"Yes!"

Woowoo woo –

The clatter of iron wheels was accompanied by a column of snow-white smoke falling backwards, and a column of black metal beasts sailed into the platform station.

It can be seen that this locomotive has been improved and is much more advanced than the original testing machine.

Behind the locomotive, there are eight neat carriages, all made of iron-assisted wooden planks, which are painted to give them a dark color.

On the locomotive, the block letters printed on the lacquer are magnificent.

【Battle Column 01】

The whistle blared, accompanied by a slightly harsh metallic sound.

The train stopped steadily in front of Long Qijun and the others.

Even if it is a Liaodi person, or a former Han army who has been in Liaodi for a long time, the extreme shock brought by the train still makes many people stunned on the spot.

Before the completion of the Liaoze Railway, there were not many people in Liaodi who had seen trains, how to say it in one sentence?

That's right, that's called beating primitives.

It is the charm of unique scientific and technological creations!

"This!"

Huo Quzhi couldn't help himself for a long time when he looked at the giant thing in front of him, it was the first time he saw a train, this giant beast made of metal actually made him feel a trace of palpitations.

If you get knocked on, you'll have to get minced meat.

Fortunately, he has the ability to keep his face unchanged for the collapse of Taishan, and after a short period of shock, he immediately issued a military order backwards.

"Queue to board the !!"

An order sounded, and the officers and men of the Dragon Banner Army immediately returned to normal.

One after another, the orders came down, and all departments boarded the car neatly.

Battletrain 01 has eight carriages, one of which is loaded with coal and water, and then another with food and supplies.

In addition to these two carriages, the other six carriages were used to transport troops, one carriage could carry 337 people, and the six carriages carried a total of 2,022 troops.

Since it is fully loaded, the comfort of the carriage is equivalent to nothing, but fortunately, in order to save space, each carriage is divided into three layers of sleepers, which can allow the soldiers to lie all the way to Juyanze.

In Liaoning, there were a total of 37 battle trains, and except for the 20 trains that carried supplies in front, the other battle trains were still in the garage.

This time, the troop transporters came to Juyanze by a total of 10 trains, which were divided into batches and departed every half an hour to carry more than 14,000 people and equipment.

From 12:07 to 16:13, Huo Quzhi and Ah Liang also boarded the train to Juyanze.

Listening to the clanging sound and looking at the scenery flying away upside down, the corners of his mouth were outlined.
