I'm only seven years old, Lao Zhu, you let me supervise the country?

Chapter 136 March in a hurry!The pirates are coming!

beheaded?

Really beheaded?
The onlookers were stunned.

This is the majestic Cao Guogong!
After the founding hero Qiyang Wang Li Wenzhong, did he really kill if he said so?
Many people secretly swallowed their saliva.

It is said that His Royal Highness Taisun not only has the poetic talent of Li Du, but also is decisive.

Today I found out that it was not a false rumor.

But everyone thought of Li Jinglong's last bear appearance, and felt that it was better to kill this kind of general.

Can he be a good general if he is greedy for life and afraid of death?
Zhu Yunxuan looked forward, it was the five hundred soldiers brought by Li Jinglong.

"Don't get out of the way quickly? Do you also want to be punished for crimes like your general?"

Those soldiers looked at me and I looked at you and quickly made way for them.

They came here under Li Jinglong's order and acted according to the order. If they were to be accused of crimes, they would not be able to judge them.

But if it continues to block the road, its nature will completely change.

His Royal Highness Taisun even dared to kill Li Jinglong, let alone them.

"Hang Li Jinglong's head as a signal to strengthen the military's power. Send an order to the entire army to speed up and reach Jiaxing Mansion within four days."

Zhu Yunxi gave an order, and the marching speed of the army immediately increased.

Jiang Yu was horrified. It was a full six hundred miles from Jinling to Jiaxing Mansion.

Their army is not cavalry, but infantry.

Except for His Royal Highness Taisun who rode in a carriage, he and Zheng He and a few other generals rode horses, the rest of the troops walked on two legs.

Six hundred miles in four days, that is, 150 miles a day, is it really possible?

Although he is the commander of Jinyiwei and does not lead troops in battle, he also knows the speed of ordinary infantry marching, which is 100 to [-] miles a day. Only cavalry can run more than [-] miles a day.

However, due to the short period of formation of the army, the new army has not had time to arrange horses, and it is just a pure infantry.

How could it have the speed of cavalry?
however.

It was only when he started marching that Jiang Yu discovered the difference in the new army.

The speed of their march is really fast.

Without armor, the weight is reduced, which greatly enhances their flexibility.

And when Zhu Yunxi was training the new army, he always put running as the most important training.

Soldiers are very fast.

Even with the popularization of mechanized equipment in later generations, the field army also had to train every day to march with heavy loads or light equipment.

Jin Yiwei is a carefully selected elite, and many of them have good martial arts.

When they started running at this time, many people couldn't keep up with the new army.

The more time passes, the more so.

This made Jiang Yu's face a little bit embarrassing, and he kept urging them to speed up.

At the end of the day, the whole army ran forward for nearly 180 miles before setting up camp.

No one in the new army was left behind.

And Jin Yiwei had less than 400 people to keep up with the itinerary.

The remaining 100 people were left behind.

Jiang Yu's face was extremely ugly.

This is Jin Yiwei!
The head of all the guards of the Ming Dynasty, the elite of the elite.

Can't compare to the newly formed new army?
How can he keep his face?

In fact, we really can't blame the guards in brocade clothes.

According to Sun Tzu's Art of War, if you run hundreds of miles to fight for profit, then the generals of the three armies may be captured.The strong soldiers can go to the battlefield first, and the tired soldiers must lag behind. In this way, only one tenth of the troops can reach the battlefield as scheduled.

And they ran 180 miles a day.

That is, Jinyiwei, and nearly 400 people persisted.

For the soldiers of any other guard station in the Ming Dynasty, if 500 of the 50 people could keep up and not fall behind, it would be quite good.

Not to mention infantry, even cavalry, this speed can be called amazing.

The road of this era is not the future, it is very rough and difficult.

No one in the new army was left behind. In Jiang Yu's view, it was simply incredible.

It seems that this army does have its own way.

he thought to himself.

In fact, like others, Jiang Yu is also full of doubts about the new army.

This army is so weird.

One has to doubt.

However, doubts are doubts, Jiang Yu still firmly chose to stand with Zhu Yunxi and obey his orders unconditionally.

Zhu Yunxi was not surprised by this.

First, the new army abandoned its armor and its load was greatly reduced.

In fact, after entering the age of firearms, and before the technologically advanced body armors of later generations were invented, ordinary armor was meaningless.

Because armor that can withstand swords and arrows is like paper in front of bullets.

Instead of putting on armor and increasing the load out of thin air, it is better to just throw it away.

Second, the new army has been training in running and rapid marching, while other armies of this era have never trained in this way.

Thirdly, every soldier of the new army has been strictly selected, and they are physically strong and incomparable.

In the general army of later generations, the selection of soldiers' physical fitness is actually not too strict.

As long as there is no disease and good health, it will be fine.

To be a soldier is not to be an athlete, and it does not require physical fitness far beyond ordinary people.

Normal people in good health can meet the standards of the army after several months of training.

Only the requirements of special forces will be greatly improved.

But Zhu Yunxi's criteria for selecting soldiers was in line with the special forces of later generations.

The army trained in this way is naturally extraordinary.

Silent all night.

On the second day, when the east was slightly white, the army had set off again.

Marching more than 160 miles in one day.

On the third day, they marched for more than 140 miles.

On the fourth day, marched more than 120 miles.

Jiaxing Mansion, here we come!

At sunset, Jiang Yu looked at the Jiaxing City Wall not far away, with a dazed expression, a little unbelievable.

Of the five hundred imperial guards, only a hundred or so followed the team.

As for the new army, there are still 500 people, not a single one missing.

This new army really cannot be measured by common sense.

"His Royal Highness, let's hurry up and enter the city."

As soon as Jiang Yu's voice fell, he heard Zhu Yunxuan order Zheng He: "Send down the order and set up camp outside the city."

Jiang Yu was stunned for a moment, they were all under Jiaxing city, why didn't they go into the city?
If you command an army of tens of thousands, it makes sense to station outside for fear of harassing the people in the city.

But they only have more than [-] people, and they can be easily settled in the city.

But in his mind, he still carried out Zhu Yunzhen's orders to the letter.

Immediately let Jin Yiwei set up camp on the spot.

The soldiers are all busy.

Zhu Yunxi also heaved a sigh of relief when he got up from the carriage.

In the past few days of rapid marching, although he had been sitting in the carriage, he was so shaken that his bones were about to fall apart.

The roads of this era are too bad and bumpy.

Moreover, the carriage does not have any shock absorbers at all. It is fine to drive in Jinling City, but once it goes out of the city, it will really suffer.

The car and the horse are tired, which is not an empty statement.

Not to mention that he was running so fast all the way.

However, seeing that Jiaxing City is still intact, I feel that all this is worth it.

What he was most worried about was that the Japanese pirates and rebels took over Jiaxing City before they arrived.

Now it seems that the rapid march for several days was not in vain.

They succeeded in catching up with the Japanese pirates and arrived at the foot of Jiaxing City.

"Look, there's someone over there!"

I don't know who screamed.

Zhu Yunxi turned his head and looked around.

On the horizon not far away, black masses of people and horses rushed in like a tide.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The soldiers in Jiaxing City stood on the city wall and looked further, and the sound of drums was already heard.

"It's the Japanese pirates, it's the Japanese pirates, the Japanese pirates are coming to attack Jiaxing!"
