Datang New Order

Chapter 6 Weizhou

The Beizhou massacre was completely out of Zhou Zhiyu's control.When the soldiers of the Jianzhu Battalion who entered the city discovered that the so-called cooperation between the inside and outside of the big households in the city was purely a scam, their emotions were out of control. When the brothers around them fell one by one, these Yanzhao men who had just joined the army were about to explode However, after breaking the city, regardless of men, women and children, the fierce resistance together added fuel to everyone's anger, so chaos broke out, and everyone seemed to be crazy.

This matter was not the original intention of Lu Longjun Jiedu envoy Liu Rengong.What Lu Longjun went south to map was land, Dingkou, food and payment, not a deserted city. Although Beizhou has been captured now, what is the use of an empty Beizhou city?So Liu Rengong made a big fuss after entering the Beizhou government office.

But fortunately, the rapid capture of Beizhou City bought precious time for the army to go south, so as the commander of the whole army, he should not be too harsh on the soldiers who fought with their lives. In the past two days, Liu Rengong had to repeat his orders again and again, asking everyone not to have such behaviors in future wars.

After being scolded by the commander, Zhou Zhiyu was also very wronged. After returning to the front camp, he beat drums and drums, gathered the whole battalion, and vented his anger fiercely.Of the more than 200 ex-battalion soldiers who participated in the night attack and siege, only [-] or so survived. These people felt very wronged, and those who did not participate in the siege felt even more depressed after being scolded for nothing.Fortunately, after Zhou Zhiyu finished venting, he announced the reward for this battle, and his morale finally got back up again.

Zhou Zhiyu himself made great contributions in this battle, Jin Guerrilla General, and finally stepped into the ranks of fifth-rank officers, and concurrently served as the commander of the fifth battalion of healthy soldiers.Among the seventy or so people who survived the battle in the former battalion, more than a dozen were disabled and were ordered to retire and return to their hometowns, and were given additional rewards and money.The remaining 60 people will all be rewarded, and some who have done more meritorious deeds will be promoted to a higher level.

Li Chengzhong and Jiang Miao played a key role in the siege of the city. Among the dozen or so people who went up to the city gate, except for Ren Dutou who was in a coma and didn't know whether he was alive or dead, all of them were killed in battle.The reward the two received was [-] yuan, Jin Peirong, Deputy Lieutenant, and a rank nine.Don't look at it as a small step, but it is the difference between an officer and a soldier. This means that the two of them will be officers from now on, and their subordinates will lead soldiers.

The reward is very heavy, and it is customary to wait until the end of the war before distributing it.Officer promotions are effective immediately.Because there are currently no new recruits, and the Fifth Battalion of Healthy Soldiers lost more than 700 people in the First Battle of Beizhou, so the two can only be bare-handed gang leaders, with no soldiers under their hands, and the establishment is still in the original team.Because of Ren Dutou's serious injury, Captain Zhang inspected Dutou, and simply took control of Du, who had more than 70 men and was divided into ten groups, two of which were only the group leader himself.

As a time traveler, Li Chengzhong has been in entanglement during the two days of rest in Beizhou. There is no other reason, Tu Chenger.Regarding the right and wrong, he was very contradictory deep in his heart. In the situation where you will be killed if you don't kill, it is impossible for him to hate or approve of the actions of Lu Longjun brothers.After much deliberation, it can only be blamed on this senseless and chaotic world.

Regarding Li Chengzhong's entanglements, Jiang Miao was very open-minded. He just said lightly: "It's not easy to live in troubled times. The future will be peaceful, so it will be fine." Therefore, Li Chengzhong could only sigh in the end and tried his best. Don't think about it.

Since there were no subordinates, the two of them squeezed into a tent and continued to be company, which was much more relaxed and spacious.What the two suffered in this battle were some skin traumas. After two days of rest, the wounds were scarred and solidified, and there was no effect at all.

The army rested in Beizhou for two days before continuing to attack Weizhou in the south.

Weizhou is the administrative office of the Weibo Army Jiedufu, and it is also the center that controls the six states of Weibo Town.For hundreds of years, the world-renowned Wei Boya soldiers have been stationed here, especially the elite silver guns and soldiers, and more officers' families live in this city.Once Weizhou is conquered, the rest of the states can be passed down.

Although the Wei Bo Ya soldiers did not fall apart as previously expected, but were all concentrated in Weizhou City, everyone in Lu Long's army believed that even if this army was elite back then, it is now a mere [-] troops. How can it be impossible to compete with Lu Longjun who boasted [-] soldiers.A single [-] Badu Cavalry is not inferior to the Wei Boya soldiers who are weak in the west, not to mention there are all the elites such as the general Yanei Army, the children behind the mountain, and Yin Huludu.Even the newly formed Fifth Battalion of Healthy Soldiers now seems to have considerable combat power, which has been proved in the battle against Beizhou.Therefore, along the way, the army was full of confidence and morale was high.

When they arrived at the foot of Weizhou City and saw the Xuanwu Army's flag hanging on the tower, Lu Long's troops were a little dumbfounded.The time advantage that the brothers of Beizhou fought so hard to win in World War I was wiped out in the face of the rapid reinforcements of the Xuanwu Army.Morale plummeted, and everyone's hearts seemed to be suppressed by something, heavy.

Who doesn't know what the "Xuanwu" banner represents? "Xuanwu Army" is what everyone often calls "Bian Army", and it is also the strongest army in the world today.In the past few years, the Bian army has conquered east and west, and traveled from south to north. It has really gained a great reputation. The only one that can confront the Bian army head-on is the Jin army in Hedong.The premature encounter with this army was really not what Lu Longjun and others wanted.Even if they want to fight, it should be after annexing Weibo and recharging their strengths.

"Did you see what was written on it?" Li Chengzhong looked at the top of the wall from the side of the camp, squinting his eyes hard, but couldn't see clearly, so he had to ask Jiang Miao beside him.Li Chengzhong's uncorrected visual acuity is 0.8 and 1.0 respectively, which is fine for daily life, but it is really difficult to read the words on the banner at a distance of two miles.Speaking of it, he should also be one of the people with the worst eyesight in this era.

Jiang Miao looked at Li Chengzhong curiously, and said, "The one in the middle is Luo, it should be the handsome flag of Marshal Wei Boluo. The one on the left is Ge, and the one on the right is He... What happened to Li Lang's eyes? He was injured in Beizhou gone?"

Li Chengzhong explained: "There is no injury, but myopia, oh, it's just dizziness."

Jiang Miao nodded after listening, and her admiration for Li Chengzhong deepened in her heart.Most of the people suffering from blindness in this era are well-educated people. In terms of Jiang Miao's private school experience for a few years, Li Chengzhong has already been labeled a "well-read person" in his eyes.

Of course Li Chengzhong didn't know what Jiang Miao was thinking, and it was even more impossible to tell Jiang Miao that his slight myopia was caused by reading a large number of martial arts novels. He just muttered while thinking hard: "...Ge...he? Ge... Hey?" Based on his experience of serving in the army after graduating from high school, it may be okay for him to answer who is Li Bai, and it is also okay to know some general deeds of the famous Zhu Wenwen and Li Keyong in the late Tang Dynasty, but he must learn from these two words. After figuring out who the surnames Ge and He are, it's really embarrassing for him.

Of course, the Great Tang Dynasty was destroyed by Zhu Wen in 907 A.D. He also knew about Zhu Wen’s establishment of Houliang and so on. He had learned these things in elementary school history class, and Li Chengzhong certainly remembered them.But... How many years is the second year of Guanghua?This question was too difficult for him.So until now, he has not determined when Datang will perish.

Jiang Miao has always belonged to the bottom of the society in this era. Even if he was promoted to the deputy lieutenant in the past two days, he was still not out of the category of the bottom of the society from the ninth rank. Naturally, he also didn't know who Ge Hehe was.

Li Chengzhong couldn't think of the origins of these two, and he had nowhere to ask.This is the first time for the entire Lu Long army to go south. Most people don't know much about these two Bian army generals named Ge Congzhou and He Delun. Even the high-level generals like General Liu Rengong are probably just hearsay , I know that these two people are very powerful, but no one will care about how powerful they are.

Li Chengzhong, who can't remember, doesn't mind how powerful these two people are. What he minds is that he can't effectively use the advantages of the time traveler, such as making suggestions based on the opponent's personality, or fighting in advance according to the details of the battle recorded in history. ambush.If he travels to the Three Kingdoms, he can tell Prime Minister Cao not to connect the boats casually, and not to shoot arrows on boats where people cannot be seen clearly in the middle of the night. He can even remind him not to take the Huarong trail when escaping.It's just... This is the late Tang Dynasty. In my memory, this period of history jumped directly from the Huangchao uprising to the demise of the Tang Dynasty, and the three to forty years in between were completely blank!

It would be great if I brought this book on the history of the late Tang Dynasty with me, even if I read more posts introducing this aspect in the jar, wouldn't it be much better?Li Chengzhong patted his head regretfully, full of remorse.Li Chengzhong, who was still immersed in deep frustration, would naturally not know how much the two generals of the Bian army would impress Lu Longjun in this battle of Weizhou.

Jiang Miao has been obsessed with the scene of the smog rising from the city of Beizhou that day, and often asked Li Chengzhong what was going on.Regarding this, Li Chengzhong could only spread his hands helplessly, with an innocent look on his face, and told Jiang Miao that he didn't know too well.The smoke bombs in hand had been exhausted, and Li Chengzhong had bid farewell to that era completely. Of course, he could not explain to anyone what happened in Beizhou City that night.

Jiang Miao, who couldn't figure it out, was a little distracted and often muttered words.Li Chengzhong couldn't hear the truth, but felt that Jiang Miao was looking at him in the wrong way, and he couldn't tell what was wrong.

The siege of Weizhou this time is different from the last attack on Beizhou. Lu Long's army went south, and Wei Boya's army was also concentrated in Weizhou City. It can be said that the battle of Weizhou was the decisive battle of whether Lu Long's army could annex Weibo Town. It is a battle that determines the outcome, so the army is not in a hurry to start a fight.

The city wall of Weizhou is more than ten feet higher than that of Beizhou, and the moat surrounding the city is also ten feet deep. It can be said that the city is high and the pond is deep.There are not only [-] Wei Boya troops in the city, but also an unknown number of Bian troops to assist in the defense, and they cannot be attacked in a hurry.Lu Longjun besieged Weizhou City on all sides, and began to organize civilians to rush to make various climbing tools.Sometimes there are not enough civilian husbands, and they often dispatch health soldiers to help. Li Chengzhong has been there twice, which can be regarded as an eye-opener.Lu Longjun mainly built four kinds of siege equipment, cloud chariots, door-rushing chariots, catapults, and arrow towers. They were very solidly built, much better than Li Chengzhong imagined.

With the completion of the siege equipment, Lu Long's army also swept away the shadow brought by the Bian army's entry into the city to assist Weizhou. The morale of the soldiers gradually increased, seeing that the morale was available.

After ten days of camping under the city and besieging the city, Zhou Zhiyu, the commander of the fifth battalion of healthy soldiers, finally issued a military order to attack the city the next day!That night, pigs and sheep were slaughtered in the camp, and a good meal was made. Everyone drank the broth with great interest, gnawed at the bones, talked and laughed loudly, as if the masts and sculls were wiped out in ashes!Especially in Bendu, the examples of Li Chengzhong and Jiang Miao were there. Everyone looked at them with red eyes, which made them shudder.Who doesn't want to get promoted and get rich?As for whether he can survive—since he became a soldier and ate this bowl of food, he couldn't think about it!
