Chapter 443: The Soul of Pride

The thoughts of the tribes of the steppe are not mentioned for the time being.

As soon as Ding Hongguang received the news from Wang Huaien from Yunzhou County, the prince wanted to report a military parade of the Yunzhou Army half a month later, and immediately found Guan Ning.

The two commanders of Yunzhou County immediately arranged and spread the news to the entire army now in Yunzhou County.

The total number of Yunzhou troops is 300,000, and now 100,000 are attacking the city and pulling out the villages.

Gathering 300,000 people, they are preparing for a decisive battle with the Yunzhou army that is heading north.

And all the troops on the side of the Yunzhou Army that landed in the Wa Kingdom have finally gathered.

In addition to the 50,000 Yunlu army and Yunyao army, plus the 100,000 coerced servants recruited on the grassland and the 300,000 poisonous servant army, a total of 500,000 people also arrived in the Shanguo Domain.

The battle between the two sides is about to break out, and the Yunzhou army wins, so the next road Yunzhou army can drive straight into Iwami.

And the Wa side will not be able to gather an army of 500,000 in at least half a year.

These 500,000 were already composed of 250,000 troops recruited by Guan Bai from the vassals of the Wa Kingdom and his own headquarters.

It can be said that this Guan Bai has poured out the strength of the entire Wa Kingdom to fight this battle to defend the island.

However, the Yunzhou army is full of confidence in this.

Forget about the 300,000 poisonous servant army, they are just making up the number.

But as far as the 500,000 troops of the Wa State are concerned, not to mention that there are 100,000 elite Tatar cavalry on the side of the Yunzhou Army as an auxiliary army.

Even the two armies of their own headquarters are enough to clean up.

They're all armored!

How many of the 500,000 people on the opposite side were wearing iron armor?

And how many people wore cloth armor, leather armor?

These add up to 5,000 people.

Hitting them is like play!

But half a month later, the military parade, Yun Lujun and Yun Yaojun were determined to not be able to participate.

As a result, the candidates for the parade phalanx could only select the elite from the remaining upper four armies, Yunting, Yunji, and the Yunjiang and Yunhe armies of the lower two armies.

The first square to be selected must be the infantry square, and one phalanx plus two leaders is three hundred and fifty-two.

The parade will be carried out in a phalanx of twenty-five people with a total of fourteen rows.

And for the sake of the name of these three hundred and fifty-two people, almost all the foot soldiers in the remaining 200,000 troops in Yunzhou County have to fight dog brains.

In the end, Ding Hongguang personally went down the field and selected 350 foot soldiers who were about 5 feet 1 tall and had the best combat achievements to form the first phalanx.

And the two commanders really fought with their fists.

For the position of the commander of this first phalanx, these guys directly concealed Ding Hongguang and other officials to privately report an officer competition, and the first and second places won these two places.

Although the first and second two people were all wounded on their faces in the end, they smiled very happily, and the failed officers who watched secretly gritted their teeth and swore that the next time they would beat the two people all over the ground!

Make them laugh so much!

The second phalanx was undoubtedly a shield soldier.

The shield soldiers are much simpler, due to the characteristics of the Yunzhou army, it has always been more offensive than defensive, there are not many shield soldiers in the Yunzhou army, and it is not easy to find three hundred and fifty shield soldiers of the same height, barely enough to make up, but there is no chaos, others can only blame their own height is not enough, or the combat achievements are not enough.

And the two team leaders even fought without foot soldiers, and they got the position of the team leader without any multiple injuries on their bodies, so that the team leader who worked hard to get the team leader position in front of him was itching to see it!

In this regard, the leader of the shield soldier smiled very happily, just like the leader of the foot soldiers just now.

This was followed by pikemen, archers, and crossbowmen.

After the infantry classes appeared, the cavalry of the finale appeared.

The first to appear was a cavalry unit composed of local planning Tatar tribal mercenaries in Yunzhou County.

They wore leather armor, and occasionally some of the wealthy wore iron armor.

After that, there was the cavalry team composed of the Tatar steppe waka, but they were all leather armor, and only the leader was iron armor.

Finally, there were the light cavalry in the Yunzhou army and the last heavy cavalry.

The phalanxes of each branch of the army have selected their own phalanxes after extremely fierce selection, and then they have seized the time of half a month to start training desperately, only waiting for the arrival of the military parade in half a month.

As the news of the military parade spread more and more widely, the people who wanted to see the military parade in various territories of Yunzhou County gradually gathered in Yunzhou City.

This has also led to the recent flow of people in Yunzhou City.

When Zhao Duan went out to the teahouse to drink tea in the morning, he found that there were many more people on the street than when he came before, and many inns began to be full.

Some business-minded locals in Yunzhou City directly rented out their empty rooms to earn rent, which is really business-minded.

And as the time got closer and closer, Zhao Duan was even more surprised to find that there were not only more and more Song people in Yunzhou City, but also more and more Tatars.

It turned out that delegations from the Ministries of the Tatar steppes also began to arrive gradually.

Originally, according to the habits of these Tatar tribes, their arrival would definitely cause trouble in Yunzhou City.

But to Zhao Duan's surprise, he didn't know that once he saw that the Song people in Yunzhou City, who were facing those fierce and vicious Tatars, were not only not afraid, but also often squinted at others, so that these Tatars ate the white eyes of the people of Yunzhou City.

And these fierce Tatars are unusually honest in this environment of white eyes, even if they are despised by these people, they still show a flattering smile at others.

Zhao Duan sometimes doubted that if he didn't know that those street patrol martial marquis in Yunzhou County were more fair, as long as he made trouble, whether you were a Song or a Tatar or not, there was only right and wrong, regardless of race.

I'm afraid that these Song people are about to let these Tatars lick the soles of their shoes, and judging by the performance of these Tatars, I am afraid that they will really lick them without hesitation.

In this regard, Zhao Duan was very curious about why such a phenomenon occurred.

So he stopped the vendor who bought the sugar gourd.

Just now he saw with his own eyes that when a Tatar who was obviously a tribal nobleman bought sugar gourds from this vendor, the hawker's arrogant expression almost made him want to punch him twice, but the Tatar nobleman still licked his face and smiled at the vendor, and finally walked away quickly with the disdain on the peddler's face.

So he asked, "Little brother?" It was a Tatar just now, and you treated him like that, weren't you afraid that he would storm and hurt you? ”

Unexpectedly, the vendor looked Zhao Duan up and down and asked, "Uncle, you are not from Yunzhou County, have you only recently come to Yunzhou County?" ”

Zhao Duan was surprised: "How do you know? ”

The peddler suddenly showed a smug expression and said, "I naturally know that if you were from Yunzhou County, you wouldn't ask this question."

These Tatars are just paper tigers, don't be afraid of them!

If it weren't for the king's kindness and giving them a way to live, they would have been killed by our Yunzhou army a few years earlier.

A group of defeated men, what is there to be afraid of!

If they are honest in Yunzhou City, believe it or not, as long as they dare to hurt one of our Song people in Yunzhou City!

Tomorrow, the prince will dare to let them exterminate the clan!

Just a barbarian, how dare you spread wilderness in my Yunzhou City?!

We don't even need to give them a good look! ”

Looking at the self-confidence on the peddler's face and the straight waist, Zhao Duan felt a little shocked for some reason.

He felt that although the vendor in front of him was just a candy gourd seller, he had something that even officials in the Song Dynasty did not have.

And this thing, the Song people in the entire Yunzhou City have it!

That's a pride!

A kind of soul!
