Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 547
In mid-April 12 AD, under the fierce pursuit of the Nanchuan Army, the Internal Guard Army, the Far East Army and the troops of various dynasties, the No. [-] Army of the Hanhai Empire lost consecutive battles and was forced to withdraw from Kara Province. The powerful dynasty army announced that it had recovered the Kara Province in the Far East.

It has been more than a month since the army of the Hanhai Empire invaded the Far East and occupied the entire territory of the thirteen provinces in the Far East at the end of February. The province of Kara was the first province recovered by the army of the dynasty, so the whole army swept away the state of despair. Excited and cheered.

The news of the recapture of Kara Province was also sent to Wang Jing in an expedited way of [-] miles. After all, this is a big victory, and rewards are indispensable.

Although in the report sent to Wang Jing, the marshals and generals wrote about how their respective troops were brave and good at fighting, and how they sacrificed their lives, the actual situation was not as optimistic as in the report.

After the recovery of the whole territory of Kara Province, the armies of various dynasties who fought fiercely for half a month did not take advantage of the situation to pursue, but stayed in Kara Province for a short rest, waiting for Wang Jingxin's order.

The main reason why the various troops of the Dynasty Army stayed in Kara province to rest and did not pursue the victory was that in the past half month, although they repelled the Hanhai army, their own losses were very serious.

The Hanhai No.12 Army is the field force of the Hanhai Empire. It is well-equipped and its soldiers are fierce. Facing several times the army of the Dynasty, they lost a lot in the fierce battle at Tielan Pass. However, the dynasty's army suffered even more heavy losses.

The retreat of the No.12 Army was not blindly retreating, but retreating while fighting, and sometimes even fought counterattacks and ambushes. Too hastily, many were wiped out directly.

In some cities, Mingminghan Navy has given up. When the Dynasty army rushed in excitedly to declare recovery, when Yehan Navy would kill another carbine, it was precisely because of this repeated tug-of-war that the Dynasty army spent half an hour. It took a month to recover a province.

The fierce battle for half a month made the soldiers of the dynasty exhausted, and the chaotic command system of each army fighting independently also caused headaches for the marshals and generals, so after capturing the province of Kara, they rested on the spot.

Although the province of Kara was recovered by the imperial army, this originally rich and beautiful province has become a ruin full of holes. Many towns are left with ruins and ruins, and the bones of the people slaughtered by the Hanhai people are numerous...

Facing the dilapidated Kara Province, what troubled the Marshals even more was the chaotic command system. Now the number of troops entering the Far East has exceeded 40, but they belong to the Nanchuan Army, the Internal Guard Army, the Far East Army, and the Township Army. The western army, the provincial garrison, the militia self-defense force and other armies do not belong to each other, and there is no coordination on the battlefield. Sometimes there are not a few people who use knives and guns to fight each other for military exploits and food. It is this kind of chaotic command system Only then did Lin Nuoyan see the flaws in the dynasty's army.

Although Lin Nuoyan called on military commanders from all walks of life to form a joint command to jointly command the troops in the Far East, not many people agreed with Lin Nuoyan's suggestion, because no one would accept each other. who?

The capital city of the Raqqa province was crowded with soldiers in various uniforms. They drank and made trouble in twos and threes, shoulder to shoulder. In the governor's mansion, the commanders were still arguing about the joint command.

Facing the cold weather in the early spring of April, Lin Nuoyan, who was already in poor health, had a recurrence of his old illness, and his body became weaker day by day. Looking at the quarreling crowd, Lin Nuoyan also felt powerless.

"Report!" The loud voice at the door interrupted the quarrel among the commanders in the hall, and everyone looked at the door in unison.

Faced with the gazes of so many generals and marshals, the young soldier suddenly felt a mountain pressing down, and was at a loss for a while, even forgetting what he was going to say.

"Soldier, what's the matter?" Lin Nuoyan, who was finally lying on the chair, relieved the soldier's pressure.

The soldier hurriedly replied: "Shuai Lin, scout Qingqi to report back, the chariots and horses of Master Yang, Chief of Military Affairs, have already arrived outside the city..."

Hearing that the commander-in-chief of the dignified military hall had actually arrived in the province of Raqqa, the generals and marshals did not expect it. The marshals and generals who originally wanted to fight for the command of the battlefield had a lot of thoughts, not knowing what this meant.

Thirteen provinces in the Far East fell, and the Far East Dynasty had already reacted from the initial panic. With the victory of Tielan Pass and the recovery of Raqqa Province, the morale that was originally low was further boosted.

The reason why Yang Yanxu, chief of military affairs, went to Kara Province in person was to command the various armies and launch a counterattack against the Hanhai Empire.

Yang Yanxu soon entered the Governor's Mansion of Kara Province, and immediately held a pre-war meeting.

"Your Majesty has appointed me as the Generalissimo of the Army and Horses of the World, to be in charge of all armies in the Far East. This is the letter of appointment." Yang Yanxu re-introduced his identity as soon as he arrived, extinguishing those ambitious generals who wanted to seize the command, the Marshal them.

"The last general pays his respects to Marshal Yang—" Although they were unwilling, the generals who attended the meeting still recognized Yang Yanxu's position as commander.

Yang Yanxu was originally the top leader of the military hall, commanding the world's soldiers and horses. Now he was appointed as the world's soldiers and horses.

After Yang Yanxu introduced himself, he pushed out a male and female person next to him, and introduced to the generals: "This is Mr. Zhang Zhengzhang, the military supervisor appointed by His Majesty."

Supervising military envoys are the second most powerful figures in the dynasty's army after the commanders. They exist in various troops. They are responsible for monitoring the generals on behalf of the emperor.

"The last general has met Mr. Zhang—" All the generals saluted Zhang Zheng, the supervising army envoy.

The supervising military envoy has great power, which is equivalent to hanging a knife over the heads of the generals, which may be cut off at any time, so no one wants to offend the supervising military envoy, and is afraid of being put on small shoes.

After everyone got to know each other at the ceremony, Yang Yanxu didn't hesitate in the slightest, and pointed out the shortcomings of the current Dynasty army's lack of cooperation and fighting on their own, which made the generals feel ashamed for a while.

However, the blockbuster thrown by Yang Yanxu immediately shocked the generals.

"In view of the current chaotic command of the various armies in the Far East, before leaving, His Majesty has ordered me to carry out the necessary reorganization of the armies in the Far East. Please cooperate with the generals and marshals."

The reorganization will undoubtedly kill the military leaders from all walks of life. After all, they rely on the army under their own to have their current status. If the army is reorganized, then they will definitely be ostracized and become a bare commander.

Regardless of the generals' surprise and discussion, Yang Yanxu directly announced the reorganization plan: "Except for the Nanchuan Army, the Zhenxi Army, and the Far East Army, which remain unchanged, all other troops will be incorporated into the Internal Guard."

Hearing that the Nanchuan Army, the Zhenxi Army, and the Far East Army were not included in the reorganization, the generals in these armies breathed a sigh of relief, but the marshals frowned.

According to such a reorganization method, there will be more than 40 million recruits, and the provincial garrison will be incorporated into the inner guard. In addition to the original inner guard of more than 50 people, the inner guard will suddenly expand to [-] million. The strength far exceeds that of the original armies. Whether it is Lin Nuoyan, Liu Wenwu, or Zhange, they all feel a deep sense of crisis. The emperor wants to take advantage of this war to take advantage of the military power. They looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.

The Nanchuan Army is now full of less than [-] troops, and the same is true for the Zhenxi Army. The Far East Army has been beaten and disabled by the Hanhai people. Although it has recruited a lot of new recruits, its combat effectiveness is not as good as before. The days of the armies from all walks of life must be difficult in the future, and they cannot escape the fate of disbandment.

Because of the reorganization, the marshals were all frowning, so that Yang Yanxu couldn't listen to what Yang Yanxu said at the end. They were thinking about how to keep their position and their army.
