Army promotion

Not only did the Black Flag Army in Guyuan City do all the promotion, but also the Suzaku side.

The reason why Fang Jie has waited so long is that one is for stability, and the other is waiting for others.

Fang Jie was waiting for Chen Dingnan's army to return.

Chen Dingnan received a military order from Fang Jie after learning that he would attack Chang'an City. Where did he dare to delay and make use of the soldiers available on Yunnan Road?Chen Dingnan took his horses to wait in Xinyang City, while Chen Qianshan returned to Zhuqueshan Camp to mobilize the remaining available horses.

After meeting the two, according to the instructions of Fang Jie, they did not enter Jiangnan eastward, but went northward all the way, crossing the Huangniu River into the northwestern Great Sui.

The reason why Fang Jie arranged this is because the number of sad soldiers and horses is too large. If the troops are concentrated together, the speed of crossing Hebei will be slow.Although the naval force is not bad now, it is not a matter of two days to escort so many soldiers to cross the river.Two people, Chen Qianshan and Chen Dingnan, took the horse to cross the Huangniu River, which is not particularly wide. It does not require the assistance of a sailor to build a bridge.

The task of the two of them is to go to the northwest first, and ask Jin Shixiong in the remnant of the northwest.Then took the iron ore mine in the northwest, and after the people were stationed, the brigade crossed Yishui into Hedong Road.

This arrangement has two advantages.

First, it goes without saying that although the Northwest is exhausted, it is thousands of miles after all, not to mention there is a huge iron ore mine.Second, entering the Hedong Road from the northwest, interrupting Gao Kaitai's return.

Both Chen Dingnan and Chen Qianshan knew the significance of this battle, so neither of them dared to slack off.After the confluence of the troops, they sent someone to send a letter to Fang, and then the two men immediately set off.Naturally, there will be nothing in Huangyang Daozhi, and it is not difficult to cross the Huangniu River.Even in the northwest, the resistance between the two will not be strong.When Jin Shixiong left, he almost came out of the nest. The number of defenders left in the northwest was not large and the equipment was poor.

Fang Jie does not worry about Chen Qianshan and Chen Dingnan, but rather cares about the team that supports East Xinjiang.Nalan Dingdong had no problem leading the troops, the problem was the chaotic situation in eastern Xinjiang.Now the teams from Jiangnan and Jiangbei don't just support Zhao Tianzheng and Nalan. After arriving in Dongjiang, all the teams nominally return to Muguangling. However, it is difficult for such a complicated team to manage well.

Everyone is going to fight against foreign enemies. This is good, but we must know that whether it is Fang Jie's previous life or this life, the Central Plains Han people's desire for power has never been regardless of time and place.Mu Guangling is the nominal commander. This is true, but how many people really listen to his military orders?How many people think they should be the assistant coach?

Worry is a worry, but since the team has been released, Fang Xie knows that he cannot intervene too much.

Winter passed in such a hurry. On a sunny day, the curtain of the Black Flag Army's northern expedition slowly opened.

According to Fang Jie's military order, the army was divided into six groups.At the forefront was Xiahou Baichuan, with 50,000 soldiers.The left wing is Zhuge Wuyin and the right wing is Liu Xuri, each leading 50,000 soldiers.Cui Zhongzhen sits in the back team, leading 80,000 troops.Fang Jie brought his own Chinese army, led the military service with Du Gu Wenxiu, and led 200,000 troops.

This is a typical formation of the Sui and Sui march into the formation. Although compared with the foreigners, the Sui army is behind in terms of weapons, but in the formation, the Sui has never fallen behind either side.

Three hundred and eighty thousand troops, mighty.

In addition, Zheng Qiu and Duan Zheng's two sailors are already waiting on the Yangtze River.After Fang Jie's military order was issued to Yunnan Road, the first to arrive was the sailor newly formed by Duan Zhengxin.After integrating the original Nanyan's sailors and the newly built warships, the scale of Duan Zheng's sailors is not weaker than that of Zheng Qiu's fleet.

This powerful use of troops was the first time since Fang Jie established the Black Flag Army.

Fang Jie has been planning in the Southwest for years and has been accumulating strength in a down-to-earth manner.By the time it comes out, this strength is enough to make people afraid.

"Prince"

Dugu Wenxiu looked at the map, sitting in a slightly shaky carriage, the literati's upper body was straight, already with the appearance of a few soldiers.

"Duan Zheng ’s naval division is in Qinglin, and Zheng Qiu ’s naval division is in Wanzhou. The two places are within ten miles of each other. According to the scale of the naval division, it would take at least ten days for the entire army to cross the river. With hundreds of thousands of auxiliary soldiers and civilians, plus horse-drawn carts, especially battalions, crossing the river is time-consuming. "

Fang Jie nodded: "I have ordered Duan Zheng and Zheng Qiu's sailors to fight down a place on the north bank. The Sui army on the north bank has basically been cleaned up by Gao Kaitai's horses, and there is basically no defense on the river bank. Water The division is well-armed, and it ’s not difficult to get the place you need to land. ”

"Although Xiahou is anxious, he is still safe."

Du Guwen Xiu Road said: "He is the most suitable person to use him as a pioneer."

"Your duty is not flattering."

Fang Jie smiled and said: "Find the best route from this map, this is what you have to do."

Du Gu Wen Xiu also laughed, and then used a charcoal pen to draw a line on the map: "It's best to land from Qiong Ai City. Qiong Ai City is close to the river. It was once a supply place for merchant ships on the Yangtze River to stop by. Nowadays, there are far fewer wars than in previous years, so there must be a lot of ships there in Jongai City, and those merchant ships can be recruited by then. "

Wu Yidao said beside him: "The fleet of cargo-going ships is also waiting in Qiong'ai City."

...

...

Fang Xie looked at the map, and the thoughts in his mind extended along the line drawn by Dugu Wenxiu.Undoubtedly, although the route selected by Dugu Wenxiu is not the latest, it is definitely the most secure.According to this route, if you cross the river, you can go to Chang'an City within a month.

"Now Jiangbei's greatest strength is of course Gao Kaitai. After Wang Yiqu's death, although some of Wang Yiqu's men were unwilling to respect Gao Kaitai's orders, and several people even fled, Gao Kaitai still has at least 1.2 million horses in his hand. Breaking through Changan with these troops is like a joke, but it is an obstacle to stop us. "

Du Gu Wenxiu sighed: "It would be better if the conflicts in Gao Kaitai Camp were intensified before the battle. Wang Yiqu's men, even those who stayed to listen to his orders, might not be convinced of him. Finding the right people encourages the rebellion, then the first battle in the true sense will be smoother. "

Fang Xing said: "I have informed Chen Xiaoru to go ahead and do it. It is this errand that Xiaoqi School is doing. No one is better than them."

"If Gao Kaitai is not a problem ... then the biggest problem is the wall of Chang'an City."

Dugu Wenxiu said: "Although the subordinates have not been to Chang'an, it is conceivable how strong and tall this city wall built by the power of the Great Sui Dynasty in the past two hundred years, even if we have a firearm camp, want to break through It's also difficult. "

"and……"

Dugu Wenxiu said: "We don't know much about the things in Chang'an City. In addition to the five thousand iron generals left by Yang Jian, how many troops are there in the city? If we can investigate in advance, it will be of great benefit to the offensive."

"Not difficult"

Wu Yi smiled: "I have a fat man named Jiu Secai in Chang'an City. Even though his light merits can't be compared to the world, it's not too difficult to get in and out of Chang'an City."

Fang Jie nodded: "I know the skill of Jiu Secai. He runs like a catkin that is blowing in the wind."

"Although ... it looks like a big ball."

Du Gu Wenxiu's eyes lit up, he really did not expect Fang Jie actually left a chess piece in Chang'an City.

"Not only the number of defenders, but if we can communicate with our people in Chang'an City, then we can completely differentiate the distinguished nobles in the city. Yang Jian died, and his general Wei Mu led the five thousand iron generals to guard Chang'an. The absolutely defensive Chang'an City installed a knife, not only defending but also attacking. However, the subordinates thought that those officials in Chang'an City were expensive, but they all wanted to stay with Wei Mu. "

Wu Yidao nodded: "Those people will see the wind and rudder the most. At first, they might not do anything, but as long as the protagonist fights out his prestige, many people will take the initiative to contact the protagonist."

Fang Xing yelled: "Ji Secai is not a fool. If he learns that the army is here, he knows what to do."

Wu Yidao thought for a while and said, "The princess's condemnation ..."

He looked at Fang Jie, but he didn't say anything later.

"hair!"

Fang Jie did not hesitate: "Notify everywhere."

"The next thing to say is food and grass ..."

Du Gu Wenxiu said: "Not counting the teams of Chen Qianshan and Chen Dingnan, the total number of heroes and heroes led by the protagonist is more than 500,000, plus the war horses, such a huge team requires a huge amount of daily consumption. We With the military food from Shengtu and Yang Jian, plus the one brought from Suzakuyama, plus the contributions from the Jiangnan families ... It is estimated that enough troops will be needed for a month. No more can be brought ... "

"It seems that food is temporarily worry-free, but after arriving in Jiangbei, the place has been swept away by Wang Yiqu Gao Kaitai for two or three years. Hou Ye ’s fleet and sailors will be taken up a lot. "

He shook his head: "It is better to solve the problem of grain and grass in Jiangbei."

"So ... the route marked by the subordinates turned a little corner here ..."

Du Gu Wen Xiu pointed to a place: "An Qing Cang"

Wu Yidao shook his head: "In the past few years, Gao Kaitai has been in Jiangbei, I am afraid that he has already emptied An Qingcang."

"Not necessarily"

Du Gu Wenxiu said: "The reason why Gao Kaitai is so cruel to the people, I thought it was not that he emptied An Qingcang, but that he wanted to leave An Qingcang to the end. I know that Gao Kaitai is a person who is extremely cautious in his personality Yes. His team eats the plundered food first, leaving the food in Anqing warehouse for the occasional need. "

"After all, it's a fight."

Fang Xie thought about it and said, "In addition to Anqing Cang and Zhuque Mountain Camp, there is also Xinkou Cang in Xinyang City. It is the fastest to transfer grain from Xinkou Cang to the north of Shun Shui Road."

He said while looking out of the carriage: "It's almost time to the riverside, and he can already smell a smell of river."

At this time, the carriage stopped suddenly.

The voice of Chen Xiaoru was heard outside: "Princess, in front of the river there are many famous people and countless people gathered, saying that they want the army."

"The troops?"

Du Gu Wen Xiu smiled: "It's time for them to make gestures."

"How much did the labor force bring?"

Fang asked.

Chen Xiaoru came in from the outside, holding a large wooden plate in his hand.

"In addition to the grain ... there is this."

Fang Xie looked sideways, and his heart suddenly tightened.

On that big tray, there was a set of golden armor!
