Chapter 112: The million-strong army of the Northern Barbarians knocks on the pass!
"The six counties have begun to recruit people to escort grain north." Chen Gong nodded.
"Arrange it, each county will mobilize enough five thousand people to eat food for two months, remember, you need fine food, and secretly escort it to the C-shaped army formation!" Chu Jiang's eyes condensed slightly, and he said after a moment's silence.
"Also, escort the iron mine, and 100,000 taels of silver!"
"Obey!"
After that, Chen Gong began to write secret letters, since Chen Gong was born, Chu Jiang did not do the matter of writing secret letters, and handed it over to Chen Gong to ghostwrite.
In the six counties, two months of grain in each county, that is, 5,000 people eat a year's food. Now that the power under Chu Jiang's command has just begun, Chu Jiang is ready to summon an army in the C-shaped army array, an army composed of all the right guards, and an army that is completely loyal to Chu Jiang.
At present, Chu Jiang has summoned a lot of soldiers, but they are all distributed in the Liangshan Army as generals, and there is no army composed entirely of right military guards. The people were scattered among the Liangshan army, although they secretly controlled many large armies, and they also affected the elite level of the army.
Sometimes the large army is scattered, and the commander of a larger army may not be as effective as the well-trained elite.
Chu Jiang wanted to do this for a long time, but because the food in the C-shaped military town was not enough, he had no choice but to give up this idea. After all, the army is not said to be raised, raising soldiers requires a lot of silver, even if the right military guard does not need military salaries, at least there must be food.
In the past, when the number of people in the C-shaped military town was the largest, there were nearly 100 more right guards, and this was already the limit that the C-No. military town could accommodate, and if there were more, the food would be exhausted, which was why Chu Jiang did not leave a large number of soldiers in the military town in the later period. The grain allocated by the imperial court was only enough for five hundred soldiers.
……
With the passage of time, the prime of the northern barbarian tribes began to assemble, and the dense army pressed towards the border pass, and the entire northern border suddenly became filled with gunsmoke, and a large amount of grain was pulled out of the warehouse and continuously sent to the major cities in the north, as well as consumable weapons such as rolling stones, wood, and feather arrows.
All the people in the entire northern territory are preparing for the upcoming battle, and in the three hundred miles of fortresses in the north, in every city, in every military town, there is the sound of sharpening knives in the daytime, not only the sergeants, but also the young men in the city.
The young and strong people in the border city are the people in their leisure time and the soldiers in wartime. Just like in the C-shaped military town in Chujiang, there are only 500 soldiers, but there are 1,000 young and strong people, and once the situation is critical, these young and strong are soldiers!
In this tense atmosphere, half a month passed in a flash.
A hundred miles north of Dayan!
The endless camp tent stands on the grassland, the boundless camp tent stretches for nearly a hundred miles, and from the high altitude, the area of the dense camp tent in the north is even seven or eight times larger than that of Liangshan City!
In the middle of the tent, a tent ten times larger than an ordinary tent was held, and around the tent stood a series of sharp-eyed, burly guards. In front of the big tent, a three-meter-long flag is erected here, on which the three big characters of King Hutu are written in barbarian script, and at the top of the flagpole, a lifelike golden goshawk spreads its wings and is ready to fly!
The Golden Eagle Banner of the Northern Barbarians, this is the symbol of the Northern Barbarian Royal Court, this is the Northern Barbarian King Flag, the King Flag of the Northern Barbarian Hugh Tu King, the King Flag is here, which shows that the Beiban Hugh Tu King is also here!
Inside the big tent, the ground of the entire tent is covered with wolf skin, the inside of the huge tent is as grand as a palace, the interior is extremely luxurious, the top of the big tent, a burly man with a golden knife sits on the snow-white bearskin chair, and six small collapses are set up below, and six barbarians sit on the couch, one of them is the Northern Barbarian Natuhou who fought with Wang Hu before - Tie Ying!
"See the great King Hugh Tu, according to your orders, the million iron horsemen have been assembled and are ready to attack at any time!" A general in leather armor saluted respectfully.
King Hugh Tu's eyes lit up instantly, and a fierce momentum like a fierce beast swept out, "Good! ”
"Six of you, two people deal with one state, Beiliang Qianshan Pass, and this king will deal with it personally!"
"Yes!"
The six Hou Ye who sat down behind Xiao Qi immediately got up and said.
King Hutu led a group of princes to the front of the big tent, looked at the endless camp tent in front of him, pulled out the long knife from his waist, and shouted: "Pull out the camp!" ”
The voice of King Hutu was blessed by the qi of Gangqi, like thunder spread throughout the entire camp, and as the voice of King Hutu fell, a desolate horn suddenly sounded in the entire camp, and a large number of northern barbarian soldiers began to move.
After a while, the entire camp was divided into seven parts, one Wang Banner and six Hou Banners hunted in the wind, and the army was divided into three parts, which were respectively killed in the three states north of Dayan.
Ten Thousand Cities!
Wei Tian walked quickly to Wei Yuan's side, clasped his fists and saluted: "Father-in-law, the Northern Barbarian King Department dispatched 50,000 cavalry, and the six major Hou Divisions each dispatched 50,000 cavalry, plus the recruited soldiers of large and small tribes, a total of one million troops, knocking on the pass!" ”
As the Northern Barbarian army was about to knock on the pass, Wei Tian couldn't stay in Liangshan City anymore, and he didn't care about finding any secret forces, and after releasing his momentum to shock him, he immediately returned to Wanren City.
Wei Yuan's eyes opened suddenly, "The million army is knocking on the pass, the Northern Barbarians haven't had such a big movement for many years, it seems that this new Xiu Tu King, Xiu Wei has broken through to the Zhengang realm." ”
"Pass my military order, Murong Han······ Wait for the six of them to go to the northern front line to sit in the town, you stay and sit in Wanren City, and I will go to Qianshan Pass! ”
"Yes, General!" Hearing the two words of the military order, Wei Tian immediately changed his father-in-law to a general.
"Also, no one is allowed to mobilize the Zhenbei Army without my order, remember, it's anyone!" Wei Yuan said solemnly.
"Yes, there is a general here, please rest assured. The last general only recognizes the general tiger talisman, and the rest of the people ignore it! ”
At the same time, the C-shaped military town!
Chu Jiang looked at the information he had just gotten, his face changed slightly, a million troops knocked on the pass, this time the Northern Barbarians were so aggressive!
A battle before the start of winter and a battle after the end of winter, from time to time in the three seasons of spring, summer and autumn, a small group of troops from the North Barbarians went south to fight the autumn wind, which is the habit of the North Barbarians.
And often the battle after the end of winter is the battle in which the Northern Barbarians have invested the most troops. There is a saying in Beiban that the battle before winter is the dormant winter, just like the hibernation of fierce beasts.
And the battle after the end of winter is the first battle of the new year, a battle that stimulates morale and blood, a battle that awakens the blood frozen by the cold, and a battle to avenge the old people who were willing to sacrifice in the tribe before.
Therefore, when winter is over and spring has not yet come, it is the most dangerous and cruel time in the entire north!
