Become a feudal king from today - #959 - Chapter 971 Delivery
Capital camp.
It is composed of five sub-battalions. Except for the original north and south camps of the First Army stationed in Yancheng, the remaining four armies are distributed in the four corners of Yancheng.
At the same time, the Royal Palace Army changed its name to the Central Army.
The construction of these four camps began, and now the second to fifth armies are stationed here.
Yang Feng left the palace and delivered King Yan’s orders to the second to fifth armies.
“Take the bed immediately, check the muskets and ammunition, and go to the station to wait for departure!” Bai Shang summoned the generals at the Second Army Camp and issued the order in a hurry.
After Qinshan and Guantong went to the Qinglong Army and the Suzaku Army as generals.
Lu Chang and he were in charge of the former First Army and Second Army respectively.
Although there are no changes in positions, the generals in the army know that the status of the First Army and the Second Army in the Central Army is higher than that of the other three armies.
Being able to command these two armies naturally earned the King of Yan’s trust.
“Hehe, this kid Lu Chang is going to jump around. He has no share in this war.” The generals under his command left one after another, and Bai Shang smiled proudly.
The most important duty of the First Army is to guard Yancheng.
The war was obviously not serious enough to require even the First Army to be dispatched.
Usually when Lu Chang saw him, he would always show off his status as the commander-in-chief of the First Army.
Now, all I can do is break my teeth and swallow it in my stomach. This is called gain and loss.
Thinking of this, he left the general’s mansion with his hands behind his back, inspected the camp, and urged the generals and soldiers to set off.
Under the war order, the entire Second Army camp became busy.
The soldiers beat their bedding into tofu pieces and carried them on their backs, then took Qin-style rifles.
The team leader went to get ammunition again and came back with dry food bags and distributed them.
The well-prepared soldiers marched towards the station with flags as units.
The artillerymen put horses on the mounted breech-loaded field guns and pulled them to the station.
At the moment, the station is as busy as the military camp.
The station master recalled all railway employees who were resting and cooperated with the troops to board the train.
They stopped the steam train that was about to leave and refunded the tickets to the passengers on the train.
Some employees connected the spare steam locomotive locomotive to the carriage.
When the Central Army soldiers arrived, they immediately directed the soldiers to board the vehicle.
Not long after, a steam locomotive was loaded with soldiers.
The whistle blew and the steam engine headed towards Jinju.
In addition to the steam locomotives that carried soldiers, the station also released steam locomotives that pulled coal and hoisted field guns one by one.
This time, the support, personnel and equipment set off at the same time.
Yang Feng led officials from the Ministry of War to help with dispatching and commanding at the station.
Seeing the majestic scene of tens of thousands of troops rushing to the battlefield in front of him, tears filled his eyes.
Today, he is over sixty.
In these sixty years of life, Dasong has been shrouded in fear from the north for most of the time.
But since he came to Yancheng, he has never felt this kind of fear again.
On the contrary, he firmly believed that King Yan would one day lead them to completely eliminate Beidi.
Now, soldiers riding steam locomotives rush to the battlefield bravely and confidently.
Artillery carried by steam locomotives all confirm this.
They haven’t launched the final blow against Beidi yet, not because they don’t have the ability, but because they are waiting for the right time.
In just two or three days, men and equipment can cross an army of 1,200 miles. How can Beidi resist?
“Hangchi, bangchi…” Steam locomotives slowly left the station one after another.
Yang Feng raised his hand and gave a military salute to the soldiers in the carriage.
When the soldiers saw him, they also returned a military salute.
The soldiers in the carriage all looked young, but they were all veterans.
The war is coming, and not only do they not have a trace of fear, but their eyes sparkle with excitement.
At the same time that the Central Army took action, a telegram also arrived in Jinzhou.
Yang Zhen received the order and immediately dispatched 50,000 Xuanwu troops to the station.
He was disappointed that Beidi did not launch an attack in the direction of Ningjin Dusi.
The Beidi cavalry who came to cause nuisance was just a false bait.
But they can’t help but be on guard.
Beidi fell into a state of hysteria, and all Beidi people were now soldiers on the battlefield.
The elite of the Tongniu King’s tent across the way have all gone to Yinshan, but the old, weak and weak women who are left behind can also kill people with weapons.
The two armies came to support.
In just a day and a half, the first bus full of soldiers from the Central Army arrived in Yongcheng.
Another day later, soldiers from the Xuanwu Army also arrived.
In the next few days, steam locomotives arrived one after another.
They first dropped the soldiers on the east bank of the Jin River, and then the soldiers arrived on the west bank of the Jin River by boat, and finally assembled near Yongcheng.
Chang Wei took a steam locomotive and arrived one day earlier than the supporting army.
I also learned about this support operation through Ma Han.
“If the cold continues, within six days at most, the narrow river can be used for horse racing.” Chang Wei looked serious in the temporary command room inside the Yongcheng Mansion.
Ma Han, Chen Hu, Bai Shang, Huo An and the generals of the Xuanwu Army all gathered around him.
After a pause, he continued, “This time Beidi moved south in large numbers to cooperate with the Western Turks to besiege Dasong, the Suzaku Army in Yunzhou and Jiaozhou, and the Qinglong Army had already confronted the armies of Jiaozhi, Piaoman and other countries, so the north must not Make mistakes so they don’t get distracted and write everything off.”
Everyone nodded after hearing this.
Ma Han said, “Beidi came at the right time this time. Let’s settle all the old grudges together and recover the northern grassland by the way.”
With a hint of envy in his eyes, he said: “The Navy has already captured Luzon and Nanzhanzhou. We in the army cannot make any achievements and just watch helplessly as the Navy’s people race around Nanzhanzhou and make a fool of themselves.”
“You’re right. In terms of merit, our army has fought more battles than the navy. Now they have taken advantage of everything. We must take advantage of this time to counterattack the enemy’s siege. We must show our prestige and go out to expand our territory for His Highness. , This grassland is not inferior to Nanzhanzhou at all, it is still close.” Bai Shang turned to the generals and said.
“What General Bai is saying is that the boys at the Naval Academy now dare to walk with their noses in the air in front of our students at the Army Academy.”
“Let them see the power of the army this time. Won’t they just capture Luzon and Nanzhanzhou? Not only do we have to capture the grasslands, but we also have to fight all the way to the north. To the south, we’ll capture Jiaozhi, Piaoman, and all these bitches.” Clean it all up together.” Huo An agreed.
When the other generals heard this, they all laughed and geared up.
Chang Wei suddenly snorted and said seriously, “Everyone of you, pay attention to unity. The navy is also Dasong’s army and is our brother!”
Seeing Chang Wei’s serious tone, Bai Shang and other generals immediately put away their smiles and returned to their normal faces one by one.
“But the navy guys are really getting their tails up. It’s time for them to see how our army fights.” Chang Wei suddenly changed the subject.
“Hahaha…” The generals laughed at the same time.
