Chapter 232 Soldiers to the Central Plains
The strong wind kept howling, and King Fu stood on the wall of Luoyang City, looking towards Shaanxi.

I am still looking forward to it, hoping that Li Lang can bring rescue soldiers from Shaanxi.

However, as the end of the year was getting closer and closer, there was still no movement, not even a little bit of news came back.

There was no reply, which made Fu Wang a lot more worried.

Now Zhu Yujian has led troops into the territory of Henan Mansion. If there is no accident, they will probably approach Luoyang City on the eve of the Spring Festival.

He hoped that Li Lang could bring Sun Jie's soldiers over, but unfortunately there was no movement.

"What happened, why didn't even a little bit of news come back? It's really weird!" Fu Wang's face was full of worry.

Zhu Yousong, who was standing next to him, this little fat man now also had a worried face.

If King Fu succeeds, he will be the future King of ZTE.

If Fu Wang can't do it, then he is a prisoner.

Father and son are one with each other, there is nothing to say.

"Father, this time is really a bit of a surprise, no matter what the reason is, there should always be news.

But now, there is no news at all, which is a bit abnormal! "

Zhu Yousong gasped and sighed continuously.

There was snow in the sky, and it kept rushing to the ground.

King Fu and Zhu Yousong stood on the top of the city for a short time before they went down the city wall.

The situation is getting more and more difficult day by day, and King Fu and Zhu Yousong have no good solution.

There was nothing else to do except wait.

After playing the three axes, all that is left is to wait for death.

The two of them together are nothing more than waste plus waste. It is ridiculous to expect them to make any wise policy.

Compared with them, Tang Wang Zhu Yujian is much better.

In the south of Luoyang City, there is a place called Song County.

The name is very similar to Songshan, but it is not the same place.

There is an Anqing Temple in Song County, which was first built in the Zhizheng period and repaired in the Chenghua and Longqing periods.

Although it was a famous local temple, it was destroyed by the thieves when the thieves swept across Henan.

The monks inside were dying and running, and now there are only a few dilapidated courtyards left.

If there is no accident, this temple will be rebuilt by local officials during the Qing Dynasty.

But now, this situation probably won't happen again.

The sound of loud and clear chants woke up the tranquility of Anqing Temple, and groups of strong soldiers continued to practice in this cold weather.

Zhu Yujian stood on the steps of Anqing Temple, looking at the soldiers who were practicing in front of him, his face was full of heat.

We will train for a while, and when the supplies arrive, we will attack Luoyang on the eve of the Spring Festival.

Zhu Yujian's [-] elite soldiers were stationed near the Anqing Temple. These [-] elite soldiers were truly [-] elite soldiers. They were soldiers and horses trained by Zhu Yujian after he returned to Nanyang with a lot of effort.

When attacking King Fu, these [-] soldiers and horses made great achievements in battle.

These soldiers and horses are all Zhu Yujian's elites. In order to win the Henan Mansion in one fell swoop this time, Zhu Yujian can't care about anything.

Lu Zhenfei stood behind Zhu Yujian, the fiery expression on his face dispelled a lot of the cold.

Looking at Zhu Yujian's back, Lu Zhenfei said: "Your Highness, now that we have elite troops in hand, it is not difficult to take down the Henan Mansion. Then we can attack King Zhou, vassal kings and gentry from all over the country, integrate the forces of the Central Plains, and prepare troops to go east. Raid Shandong, or go south to attack Huguang.

Judging by the temperament of those people in the south, they can't stop our army! "

Zhu Yujian nodded, very much agreeing with what Lu Zhenfei said.

He also thought the same way, integrating the Central Plains, and then the army went south to attack the south.

As for the north, Zhu Yujian currently has no such plans.

It's not that I don't want to, but I can't.

He has never fought against Sun Jie, but he has learned about Sun Jie's strength through various channels.

These soldiers and horses in his hands are not enough to fit Sun Jie's teeth.

If you want to deal with Sun Jie, you must integrate the power of the entire south of Daming, and then use the power of the south.

Only by concentrating all the forces that can be concentrated can we resist Sun Jie.

"King Fu is just a fat-headed guy, it's not a problem to deal with him, but the question is, will King Zhou intervene when we attack Luoyang?
If Zhou Wang intervenes, we will be passive.These [-] soldiers and horses are our bottom-of-the-box troops, so we can't lose anything! "

Zhu Yujian looked to the north, his face full of contemplation.

Lu Zhenfei frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Although King Zhou is talented, he will not act rashly.

To the northeast of Kaifeng is the capital, where the thief Sun has troops stationed.

To the northwest is Shanxi, where there are also soldiers and horses of Sun Thief. If the King of Zhou mobilizes troops at will, Sun Thief may take advantage of them.

It is unlikely that King Zhou will help King Fu. Maybe King Zhou still wants to get something from King Fu! "

"What you said is very reasonable, we still need to make a good plan!" Zhu Yujian said.

The north wind was even harsher. Zhu Yujian looked at the soldiers in front of him and shouted: "Brothers, I have prepared hot meals for you in the army. After practicing for a while, you will be able to eat hot meals."

Outside the Weicheng of Ningshan, Shanxi, a [-]-strong army marched towards the south.

There are very few soldiers on foot, basically a large number of trucks.

There are tents on the trucks to keep out the cold, and the soldiers are sitting on the trucks, and the biting cold wind does not affect them very much.

There are also concrete roads near Ningshanwei, but the further south you go, the fewer smooth roads there are.

When entering the territory of Henan, it basically becomes a rough and broken road.

Fortunately, it is winter now, so there is no need to be afraid of that muddy road.

The ups and downs are a bit rough, but fortunately, I can walk.

In addition to the trucks that pull people, there are trucks that carry weapons and deliver supplies.

The number of these trucks is the largest, and they are densely packed for dozens of miles.

Sun Jie's army has great demands on logistics. If the supplies of Sun Jie's army can be cut off, it will deal a big blow to it.

I understand the truth, but how to cut it off is a problem.

If you want to cut off the logistics transportation of an elite army, you rely on strength, not words.

When the strength reaches a certain level, it is to transport grain and grass in front of you, what can you do?
This army is the Fifth New Formation Army, and its target is Huaiqing Mansion in the south of Shanxi.

Today's Huaiqing Mansion has been captured by King Zhou.

In order to prevent Sun Jie from going south, King Zhou asked people to build blockhouses and roadside piers one after another along the Wangwu Taihang Mountains to the north of Huaiqing Mansion.

However, these bunkers are basically bean curd dregs projects with superficial appearances.

In the environment of the late Ming Dynasty, it was simply a dream to build a qualified frontier defense castle.

In fact, if you really can spend a lot of money and strength to build a large number of roadside piers and bunkers along the Wangwu Taihang Mountains, maybe you can really stop Sun Jie's convoy.

The mountain roads are rugged and bumpy, and there are not many roads where cars can pass.

To block these places, it is not impossible to rely on the mountains.

If the people under the king of Zhou can follow the order of the king of Zhou intact, maybe this matter can really be done.

But these people have not learned other skills, and the ability to corrupt and pervert the law is self-taught.

There is not much left of the Ku Yin issued by the king of Zhou after being embezzled.

In order to cope with the errands, some bunkers were randomly built in the south of Wangwu Taihang Mountain.

Some of them are not bunkers, but earth houses built with earth.

What's more, a few shacks were built casually with thatch.

The line of defense here originally had [-] soldiers.

At least this is recorded on the roster, but the real number is estimated to be only five or six hundred, and they are all old and weak.

These 600 people were spread over the long defense line, not only had to endure severe cold, but also endured hunger.

The officials in charge here don't care about the life and death of these soldiers.

All they care about is their money.

"This year's snow is really heavy. In such a cold day, nothing will happen!"

In a brick and tile room, several men in military uniforms were sitting in front of a stove, eating boiled mutton.

They are the guards of Wanzi Pass.

Wanziguan is a pass in the Wangwu Taihang Mountains, and just north of Wanziguan is Ningshanwei.

This is the only slightly flat place in the entire mountain range, suitable for large army sports.

This is a battleground for military strategists.

King Zhou is not a fool, so he naturally knows the importance of this place.

Therefore, a lot of money was spent to build fortifications here.

The idea is good, but not many have been implemented.

There are only four or five defensive checkpoints in the entire Wanzi Pass, and they are all just low brick buildings.

The number of defenders here is rated at 3000.

But the real number is only 100 people, and they are all old and weak.

The guards in the room don't care whether the bowl can be guarded or not, they only care about how much meat is left in the pot in front of them.

Several people competed in this pot, with chopsticks flying, fighting openly and secretly.

Those who ate too much blushed with a smile, while those who ate less were dissatisfied.

"I just said, our prince is just too suspicious.

What is this place?This is the Wangwu Taixing, this mountainous area full of mountains and plains, in the cold weather, how did the bandits come here?

Only this bowl can surpass others, let's pass this bowl once, and everything will be solved! "

"That's right, this year is colder than usual, and the snow is heavier than usual. If I were a grandson thief, I would hide in Shaanxi to enjoy the blessings. Whoever has nothing to do will do this in the cold weather!"

These guards in the room, you talk about each other, talk about it, don't care about the current situation.

It seemed that, in their minds, Sun Jie and his troops were idiots.

After eating, a guard walked out of the house, found a random place to urinate, and then took a symbolic tour of the nearby houses.

"Cheer up, don't fall asleep, and be careful to freeze to death you rascals!"

It's just ordinary words, just posturing.

After staying outside for a short time, he couldn't bear the cold outside, so he simply went back to sleep in the house.

It is best to sleep in the snow in winter, especially if there is a stove.

Fifty miles north of Wanziguan, a truck stopped at the end of the official road.

The official road stops abruptly here, and the next step is the mountain road.

Compared with the nearby mountains, it is relatively flat, but compared with the official road, it is still very bumpy.

It is not so easy to pass people and want to pass cars.

A bearded general in the truck heaved a sigh of relief and wiped the misted windows in front of him.

This man is Liang Dazhuang, the commander of the Fifth New Frontier Army. He has high qualifications and great achievements. He is also a student of the first batch of the Daqin Military Academy and is Sun Jie's direct descendant.

Looking at the scenery outside the car window, Liang Dazhuang put his hand on the car door.

"This car is really good. After walking so far, it's not too cold. Your Majesty is really amazing!"

His face was full of admiration for Sun Jie, and he even had a magical and fanatical feeling.

There is no heating in the car. If modern people ride in it, they will definitely complain.

But in this day and age, as long as it doesn't blow cold wind outside, it's fine.

"Pass my military order to let everyone get off the car. After three to ten minutes, we will gather in a marching formation and cross the Wanzi Pass. Follow-up vehicles will pass by slowly, don't worry!"

Liang Dazhuang looked at the mechanical watch Sun Jie personally gave him on his wrist, and it sounded like a bell.

The mechanical watch on his wrist is Liang Dazhuang's most cherished thing. He wipes it several times a day for fear of causing any impact.

The watch is bright and clearly visible.

The orderly next to him quickly conveyed the order.

The military staff, counselors and other departmental officers also gathered around Liang Dazhuang.

This army has all the characteristics of a modern military system.

In the era when feudal soldiers were generally still, they were almost invincible.

The army staff officer and other officials took out a nearby topographical map and began to lay out a detailed marching route with reference to the nearby topography.

In fact, before they set off, they had already drawn up a detailed marching route.

But when it comes to Wanziguan, we still need to be more careful, and make some changes according to the local conditions to minimize the impact.

Half an hour later, the army entered Wanzi Pass.

Soldiers and horses are like a forest, and almost no one talks gossip.

Everyone was silent and moved forward.

The wind and snow in the sky were getting bigger, and the soldiers turned down the sides of the thick hats on their heads and tied them with ropes, just enough to keep their ears warm.

They wore woolen coats, which resisted wind and kept warm.

Under the feet are leather military boots, which can completely resist this degree of wind and cold.

Carrying bedding, cooking utensils, rations and weapons with him.

The gray-black military uniform was marching in the valley. If you didn't pay attention to distinguish it, you might think it was the army of some great power during World War I.

Among the soldiers and horses, there is a group of more than a thousand soldiers.

This soldier is very different from other soldiers.

The weapons on them are not knives, guns or crossbows, but 98k, or disassembled mortars.

This team was the Chang'an Army sent by Sun Jie to adapt to the battlefield environment and formulate appropriate combat methods according to the battlefield.

If this battle goes well, they will follow their combat methods in the future, and after the 98k and other weapons are distributed to the entire army, the entire army will be implemented.

The soldiers of this army are much higher than those around them in terms of energy and physique.

The woolen coats on them are also different from other soldiers.

The woolen coats of other soldiers have black iron buttons on the chest, but they have copper buttons.

There is also a red embroidered edge on the collar, and a status symbolizing pattern on the chest.
