The great hero of the Silk Road, starting from a farm farmer

"We are unable to do anything about the Central Plains and can only sit back and watch. However, our Anxi Army cannot do nothing! Within three months, the Anxi Military Academy must have more than 2,000 new students. In addition, on the basis of the Military Academy, we will set up Military Officer University. Within half a year, more than half of the active-duty officers of the brigade and above must enroll for intensive training, and the training period cannot be shorter than three months.

The purpose of carrying out these two things, someone also made it clear today, our Anxi Army must train more than a thousand qualified officers above the squad leader within one or two years, as well as more than a hundred generals who are capable of serving as commanders of brigade-level combat units. talent.

The current situation has changed drastically, and there are no more than 200,000 main combat troops, which are not enough to deal with the chaos in the world. For now, the foundation of our army is still too thin. Both the reserve of grassroots officers and the generals who can lead a troop to independently undertake the war are extremely scarce. We must spend one to two years to build this up. The shortcomings have been made up for. "

After the news of the Battle of Miaozheng spread, many generals in the army were ready to take action. They expressed overtly and secretly that this was a good time to show the power of the Anxi army and participate in the world's determination.

As a soldier, military exploits must be the most important thing. The wars of the past two years have also given the generals in the army enough confidence. Who would not be tempted by the great achievements of winning the world in front of them?

However, Song Yingkui's own family knew about his family affairs, and he knew best how big An Xijun's belly was. Participating at this time will not only fail to solve the chaos in the world, but will also easily plunge the entire army into a bitter fight and turn the situation into a protracted melee between all parties. Song Yingkui didn't want to fight a protracted war. His ideal situation was to end the war in two or three years.

If you want to take down the Mi Meng people and clean up Dazheng's mess within two years, it will definitely not be enough if you don't have 200,000 main men at your disposal.

The situation of the Anxi Army is different from that of the Mimeng Army. The Mimeng people have relied on years of hard fighting to accumulate a large number of teams who can serve as grassroots commanders and combatants, and they also have many real generals.

Although the Anxi Army also started fighting, the wars were fought intermittently and no real officer group was formed. Without effective formal training, why should we compete with other people's veterans? Winning a war depends not only on superior equipment, but also on the quality of the army.

Besides, the current production capacity of ordnance industry companies cannot support the rapid explosion of troops. Take the standard rifles currently used by the main force as an example. The annual production capacity is less than 10,000 rods. What can be done with this little production? In the two battles between Gulong and Yinzhou, thousands of rifles were damaged.

If they want to dominate the world, military industrial enterprises must increase their production capacity by two or three times.

After appeasing the ambitions of his generals, Song Yingkui hurriedly returned to Huizhou from Yinzhou. This place was close to the Central Plains, and intelligence on the Central Plains battlefield was easier to obtain.

As soon as they arrived in Huizhou, they received new information. The two Mongol armies had joined forces in Tanzhou. The Zheng army's northern defense line was completely eroded, and the capital, Luoyang, was in danger!

However, there is relatively good news. The Yao army in Fuzhou was not completely defeated and was divided into two. One part surrendered to the Mongol army, and the other part withdrew from Fuzhou to Yanzhou. They fought a battle with the Mongol army in Yanzhou and won a small victory. They stabilized the situation in Xishan and prevented the Mongol army from continuing southward. Guanzhong was saved.

"Yao Zhonglin is quite a figure, and he has not disgraced the Yao family. However, your eldest brother Yao Dahe has lost all his integrity, and now he has become a minion and vanguard of the Mimeng people. He is leading troops to help the tigers on the front line of Yuncheng and Shaanzhou!" After learning about the movements of Yao's army in Fuzhou, Song Yingkui summoned Yao Dake and satirized him face to face.

"Is it any wonder that one or two traitors appeared in our Yao family when the country was in great calamity? Isn't it true that General Song, the first tyrant, sat on the sidelines and watched the people of the Central Plains suffer?" Yao Dake said unforgivingly, He directly responded to Song Yingkui's behavior of standing still.

"I also want to contribute to the world, but I don't have the strength to send an envoy. If my Anxi army raises troops to march eastward at this time, the first thing to cause chaos will be the Zheng army in Guanzhong. It's just that there is no point in talking about it. Song Mou wants now Do you know what the attitude of your Yao family is? Are you betting between Dazheng and Mi Meng, or are they really divided into two? "

Although the Fuzhou Army is an armed force of warlords, it has decent combat effectiveness and is one of the few usable soldiers in the Zheng Army system. If Yao Zhonglin's department in Yanzhou can really do the job, Song Yingkui's idea is to provide some appropriate support to stabilize the Guanzhong front line.

Of course, if the defected Yao Dahe tribe can be won over and allowed to return to the Zheng army with its troops and stabilize the Tongguan front line in Shaanzhou, there will be room for maneuver in the world situation.

"Please tell me what the Governor wants. If he can contribute to the people of the world, Yao will definitely do his best." Yao Da was a smart man. He heard a hint of Song Yingkui's words, and his attitude immediately changed.

"Based on your understanding, will Yao Zhonglin be a fool?"

"If there is something to be done, how can I, son of the Yao family, be a dog for the vassal? Not to mention Uncle Zhonglin in Yanzhou, my eldest brother must have surrendered to the enemy out of necessity."

"There is no last resort. Isn't Yao Dahe surrendering to the enemy just to preserve the Yao family's property in your prefecture? This matter is understandable based on the circumstances, but your Yao family has been blessed by the country, so it is unacceptable to betray the country and surrender to the enemy.

If General Yao still has some respect for the country and the people, he should write to Yao Zhonglin and Yao Dahe and ask them to try their best to protect Xishan and Guanzhong. If your Yao family can put the overall situation first, I, the Anxi Army, can provide assistance to the best of our ability so that you will have a worry-free future. "

"Can the Governor send troops to Shaanxi to assist my Yao army in fighting the Mongols and stabilize the overall situation in Guanzhong? As long as the overall situation in Guanzhong is stable, my eldest brother will definitely change his mind and return to the country!"

"This is not operable! Your Yao family army may not be reliable, and relying on the Anxi Army alone is not enough to stabilize the situation in Guanzhong.

Let's do this. Give General Yao Zhonglin a message. If the battle in Yanzhou becomes difficult, he can lead troops to the Qingzhou front line. The Anxi army will then come out from the east of Longshan and set up defenses on the Pingqing front line! "

As they talked, Song Yingkui felt that Yao Jiajun must be unreliable and it was not feasible to expect them to defend Guanzhong. It is better to fight to see if Yao Zhonglin's troops can be allowed to withdraw to Pingqing Mansion and retain this army.

Then, the Anxi Army tried to get two brigades to enter Pingqing Mansion. Once the situation is mature, rely on the two brigades of Anxi Army and more than 10,000 Yao Army to insert themselves diagonally from Pingqing Mansion to stabilize the overall situation!

It is best not to fall into the hands of the scornful people in Guanzhong. As long as the Guanzhong and Anxi armies have the next step of deploying troops, they will be guaranteed. After the officers' rapid training is completed, the battle to quell the world can be started quickly. Moreover, if the Anxi Army takes Guanzhong, the Mimeng people's pace southward will inevitably slow down, and they must be prepared to be flanked at any time!
