Valley Emperor

It was the main force of the Ming army with at least 30,000 people. If they were not found, the senior generals of the new army of the Tang Dynasty and even the emperor Li Xuan would have trouble sleeping and eating.

Otherwise, they would not have sent so many scouts to search forward. Now that they learned that Liping City had been captured by the Ming army forward, they naturally needed to go to Liping City as soon as possible to find the forward and even the Ming army. their main force.

The scout team went on their way overnight, while Sun Yawei led the group of troopers to rest for the night, and they continued their journey the next morning. You will be able to meet the army led by Li Xuan himself, and then get together.

Sun Yawei had to report to Li Xuan the situation before and after the fall of Liping City.

Although it was said that Sun Yawei led the troops to retreat with permission from Li Xuan, and even Li Xuan had already greeted him in advance, but under the attack of the Ming army, he did not hold back for a day, which was still a big failure. He must face the Holy Spirit as soon as possible, and then explain.

The next morning, Sun Yawei, who continued to go to the northeast, met several new Datang Army troops. The size of these Datang New Army troops was not large, and most of them were as few as ten or as many as twenty or thirty people. At a glance, it can be seen that it is the outpost reconnaissance unit of the forward troops. These squads will provide early warning for the troops, and at the same time clear some small troubles and obstacles along the way, to clear the way for the army.

In addition to these infantry, they also encountered two reconnaissance cavalry units, and the number of reconnaissance cavalry units was even smaller, usually four or five cavalry as a team.

After all, there are not many cavalry in the new army of the Tang Dynasty, and more importantly, the search range of the cavalry is much larger than that of the reconnaissance troops of the infantry.

Sun Yawei and the others were able to meet so many forward reconnaissance troops and reconnaissance cavalry along the way because they were just right in front of the army.

After contacting them one by one, although Sun Yawei could not know the exact location of the army and His Majesty from the soldiers of these reconnaissance troops, he could roughly guess that His Majesty and the army were about thirty miles to the north.

As for the main force of the striker, it is estimated to be about seven or eight miles to the north!

What he saw in the afternoon also confirmed his conjecture, because this afternoon, he saw a large number of forward troops of the Datang New Army walking past him.

"My lord, the staff has asked, these friendly troops are the brothers of the 3rd Infantry Regiment!"

Sun Yawei nodded slightly, as the first great history of the Tang Dynasty, even if he is now like a bereaved dog because of escaping, he still maintains his dignity as a great history of the border, and he will never dismount and run. Go to the main road and ask the big-headed soldiers, which army you belong to.

"Finally, we have reunited with the imperial army, and we will be safe now!" Another subordinate official said at this time: "It's not a good feeling to be scared all the way!"

"Tsk tsk, look at their muskets, they are all brand new. I'm afraid they are the guns that they just received. They are indeed the main force of my Great Tang Wangshi. Such military might and such imposing manners, they look impressive!" One The lower-ranking officer in the robbery camp said so.

At this time, another officer of the robbery battalion who was slightly older than him said with a look of contempt: "What is the main force, looking at their number, it should be the 8th battalion unit, this is just a newly-built unit. There is no way to compare with a few old infantry battalions, let alone with the first battalion where Lao Tzu served!"

"If I hadn't been transferred a month ago, I would be at least a deputy platoon leader of the 1st Infantry Battalion now!"

Others naturally know the origin of the officer of this robbery battalion. This man was a sergeant in the 1st Infantry Battalion before, but because of his hot temper, he had a fight with a comrade in arms last month, and he was killed by a sergeant. The paper transfer order was transferred to the deputy captain of the newly established robbery camp in Liping House. It seemed that Gao was promoted to the deputy captain of the patrol police lieutenant, but everyone knew that this was a demotion.

The opponent who fought with him also couldn't escape the punishment of the military law. He was also kicked out of the main force and transferred to the robbery camp in Xingquan Mansion.

The prospect of serving in the main force and the prospect of serving in the robbery battalion cannot be compared, because the robbery battalion is only a local security force, and there will be combat tasks, but it is definitely not comparable to the main force.

If there is no chance to fight, naturally there will be no military exploits. Without military exploits, how can you be promoted!

What's more, the military rank of the robbery battalion is not the same as the official rank of the main force. The rank of the officers and soldiers in the robbery battalion has a prefix of 'patrolman'. From this rank, it can be seen that they belong to Under the dual jurisdiction of the patrol department and the army, it is an auxiliary force whose main task is to maintain local public order.

Fighting the enemy is not actually their main task.

Now that I see the friendly troops of the main force, I can't help but feel envious and regretful. If I had known, I should be a grandson of a turtle. Now the main force is in the process of expanding its army. It is easy for a non-commissioned officer to move up the ranks to become an officer in the regular army.

such a pity!

In fact, like him, there are many others who have been driven out of the main force to serve in the robbery camp because of minor mistakes such as fighting!

These things may seem trivial, but the main force's requirements for soldiers are that you can be brave or even cowardly, but you must not become a thorn, because the thorn means that the soldier still maintains his personality, and personality is in the army, especially It is absolutely unacceptable for the new army of the Tang Dynasty with strict military discipline as the core.

The soldiers needed by the new army of the Tang Dynasty are the same soldiers as the wooden people. The officer ordered you to go forward. Even if there is a hut in front of you, you can jump down without any hesitation.

The training goal of the new army of the Tang Dynasty for soldiers is to strive to obliterate all the personalities and even the humanity of the soldiers, so that they become mechanical soldiers who can only obey orders.

Such a soldier is a qualified line infantry!

Otherwise, how could you let them keep loading and firing in the face of the enemy's guns and arrows after they went to the battlefield, and they had to follow the officer's command to load and fire uniformly!

Otherwise, how can you let them stand up to the enemy's firepower and fail to attack, just keep their heads down and walk in unison until they are only 20 to 30 meters away from the enemy before firing a salvo, and then carrying a bayonet after the salvo. Fire the gun!

To do this, what is needed is not only the courage of the soldiers, but also their instinctive obedience to the order, even if they are afraid, even if their hands and feet are shaking, but they must obey the order!

Obviously, such soldiers who can fight with their comrades without a word are retaining too much personality or **** things. They may be brave, but they may be the first to escape.

And the new army of the Tang Dynasty does not need such a person!

Sun Yawei didn't interrupt his subordinates' comments. He looked at the army that was constantly walking past him. He couldn't help but feel heroic. With such a strong army, I don't care about Tang Dynasty. It is only a matter of time to recover Lipingfu City, and it is very possible to sweep Guizhou, Huguang, and the surrounding provinces of Guangxi in the future.

When they stopped on the side of the road to let the army in front of them pass by, an officer riding a horse also rode to Sun Yawei and the others. After he came over, he gave a military salute.

This military salute is a traditional military salute for Chinese soldiers. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty inspected the barracks, Zhou Yafu greeted him with a salute, because it was inconvenient to kneel and worship in armor.

As a self-proclaimed orthodox Han dynasty that can no longer be orthodox, the military etiquette of the new army of the Tang Dynasty is also unavoidable. This military etiquette has been used for thousands of years, and it is even stipulated in the military regulations.

As a modern army that teaches military law and discipline everywhere, the Datang New Army basically has rigid and strict requirements in every word and every word, not only battlefield discipline, but also many rules in daily life~www.wuxiaspot.com~ For example, the military regulations stipulate that when soldiers meet, whether they are soldiers or generals, regardless of their position, they should bow their hands and bow to each other.

Even when it is the time to face the Holy Spirit, except for special occasions, such as the clearly stipulated that the generals and soldiers of the Great Court need to kneel and worship, at other times, if the soldiers are dressed in military uniforms, they will all be exempted from the ritual of kneeling.

Only when you are wearing civilian clothes, you need to kneel and worship, but soldiers are basically in military uniforms throughout the year, so it can basically be said that they are exempted from the ritual of kneeling and worshipping.

Sun Yawei nodded slightly towards the second lieutenant, and only then did he hear the second lieutenant say, "Dare to ask, but the Liping House respects Lord Sun in person?"

Sun Yawei said: "This official is exactly!"

The second lieutenant said, "Master Sun, the head of my family has invited me!"

Sun Yawei nodded immediately, and then followed the second lieutenant forward, and it didn't take long to see the regiment commander in the mouth of the second lieutenant.

However, when he saw this person, he was a little surprised, because the head of the regiment was not the Fang Xitong he was familiar with, but he remembered very clearly that the head of the 3rd Infantry Regiment was Fang Xitong, how could he be in front of him? The middle-aged man.

He also knew that this middle-aged man used to work in the Privy Council. His surname was Song, and he was the deputy director of the Department of Operations.

I just don't know when I became the head of the 3rd Infantry Regiment!

And where did Fang Xitong go? Could it be that he was guilty of a crime and that His Majesty resigned from office? Or was he defeated and lost his job? Or was it unlucky enough to be injured on the battlefield?

Or simply killed in battle?

If Fang Xitong, who had been promoted to the second brigade commander, knew what he was thinking at this moment, he would have to spit at him: Did I offend you? All you think about is how unlucky Lao Tzu is, how can you not think about Lao Tzu's promotion?
