The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 997 Changes in the Chieftain Army

Xiao Yu glanced at Su Dingfang angrily. This is in Chengdu. If it were in Chang'an City, just based on your words, you would get a complaint from the emperor. You can't figure out what the point is. Nanzhao What's so important about such a broken place? If Li Xiang scratches his skin, it doesn't matter if he kills millions of people in Nanzhao.

"Go down and prepare immediately. The number of people should not be too large. More than 10,000 people are enough. Except for some of my guards, all the rest will be mobilized from the four chieftains' armies. In addition, some local Han troops will also join , broke them all up and reorganized them.”

Li Xiang thought for a while and said, the local people in Sichuan have also formed an army. If they are only allowed to perform security tasks, they will still not be able to go to the battlefield in the future. The battlefield in the south will be very big in the future. Li Xiang wants to gain access to the Indian Ocean. Haikou probably has to be fought all the way. If it depends on favor, Li Xiang doesn't feel that he has the ability.

"There may really be a war to be fought over in Nanzhao, so you have to be prepared. No matter what is needed in front of you, no matter how difficult it is on your side, in short, focus on the front line first."

Li Xiang also had to give Xiao Yu a few words. It would be best not to fight, but if the time comes when a fight is necessary, we must not be afraid. We must use our swords when it is time to show them. Don't let others think that we in the Tang Dynasty Just talking.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, the surrounding large warehouses are already full, and the required escorts are also ready. They are waiting for His Highness's orders at any time. Our Chengdu Mansion will never delay things."

Xiao Yu said very proudly that after he stepped down from the position of prime minister, this guy no longer had any real power in his hands, and he always did some frivolous things. After Li Xiang asked him to go to Sichuan, The whole province is under his management, and now I want to prove to the people in Chang'an City that no matter where we go, we are capable.

After a short period of preparation, an army of 12,000 people set off from Chengdu. Among them, 800 were Li Xiang's system soldiers. These people were mainly responsible for Li Xiang's safety. The other 2,200 were local Han troops in Chengdu. , the rest are all adapted armies of the four chieftains.

If you look at it from the outside, all of these people are wearing the same clothes, and the weapons in their hands are basically the same, but only they understand that the levels of the weapons are different, and the salaries are also different.

The army adapted from the chieftains can currently only get 70% of the salary. Only after participating in several wars can they be like the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. After a period of ideological education, these people's thoughts will also change. Not bad, all that's left is actual combat on the battlefield.

Li Xiang is also wearing the uniform of an ordinary soldier. If you are not familiar with it, you will not know that Li Xiang is still the emperor's grandson. The more than a hundred people around him are all system soldiers, and Li Xiang will not fight with other soldiers. Communicate to prevent walking news from causing disaster.

"The whole army rushes."

After getting on the horse, Su Dingfang immediately issued his order. Except for more than 4,000 infantry, the remaining 12,000 people were all cavalry.

However, the infantry of the Tang Dynasty cannot walk on their own legs. They are all customized four-wheeled carriages. When they attacked Goguryeo, the soldiers had already begun to use this kind of four-wheeled carriages, so many soldiers now do not worry about walking. .

In the past, if there was a war, just the journey on the road would make everyone exhausted. Relying on their own two legs, they would have to travel thousands of miles. After arriving at the place, let alone fighting, the fatigue alone would not be known. How many days to rest.

Nowadays, after there are four-wheeled carriages, the people in the carriages take turns to drive the carriages, and the remaining people can rest in the carriages. Although it is not very comfortable, it will not be comfortable if it is compared to walking on your own feet. No matter how many times, they can still maintain their combat effectiveness.

The chieftain's army has never seen such luxurious equipment. According to their previous understanding, only when the chieftain's family goes down the mountain can they have such a carriage. As for the others, they all rely on their legs. Now we can enjoy this too.

The most terrible thing is that they changed from two meals to three meals. What they were most afraid of before was starvation, but after joining the Tang army, as long as you don't waste food, you can eat as much as you want. Newcomers At that time, many people wanted to eat all the pot, but now things are a little better.

The road from Nanzhao to Sichuan has begun to be measured, and the personnel of the imperial court have also begun to work on it, but the construction has not started yet. By the time Li Xiang and others come back, this land will belong to the Tang Dynasty, and it is time to start So we started.

But now they still need to overcome it for a while, because the road is not wide enough, so they can only have two cavalrymen side by side. As for the four-wheeled carriage behind, it can only be a carriage that passes dangerously and encounters some more dangerous places. All the people in the car could only get out, then dismantle the carriage and carry it over.

This greatly affects the speed of the infantry's advance, but the infantry still needs to carry artillery shells and other things, and it is impossible not to carry them. However, the soldiers in Nanzhao obviously did not dare to resist. When Su Dingfang led people across the border When I was online, there were people asking questions last time, but this time there were no questions.

They opened the entire level directly, and no one knew where the soldiers in the level had gone.

"Leave five hundred people to guard here, and notify Sichuan to send another two thousand people. The checkpoints in the border areas must be in our hands."

The last time we passed from here, we had to be more or less polite, so we couldn't go too far, but this time it's different. Su Dingfang knew that we used to clean up the beginning and the end, and didn't take the whole Nanzhao. If we come down, it will be impossible for us people to return to the North. In the future, we will have to deliver supplies to the south on this road. If the checkpoint is not in our hands, how can we sleep?

Li Xiang was 40 meters to the left of Su Dingfang at the moment. He also heard Su Dingfang's arrangements. The two of them had agreed before that as long as Li Xiang remained silent, the rental house would have full power to make the final decision, except for what happened after Nanzhao. There was nothing that Li Xiang needed to call the shots along the way. Some of the soldiers guarding the home didn't even know that Li Xiang was following them. Of course, they were subject to Su Dingfang's orders.
