Soha City.
Although for Meng Yuan, this city was captured too quickly and was very shameful.
But for the Mongolian people in the city, it was lucky.
After Kyogoku Dosan captured the city, he not only did not massacre the city, nor did he embarrass the Mongolian people, he only restricted the actions of the Mongolian people as appropriate.
Soha City is a small city that cannot accommodate many soldiers and horses. Ten thousand households in Kyogoku Dosan are divided into two parts. Half live in the city and half camp outside the city.
"kill!!!!!"
From the camp outside the city, loud roars of killing could be heard.
In the school grounds. Soldiers from five thousand families were arranged neatly and were practicing their sword skills. Although there are many types of soldiers in the Han army, all of them can use swords.
Sword skills are basic skills.
Kyogoku Michizan was wearing heavy armor, standing on the wooden platform with his head held high, looking at the training of the soldiers in front, showing a satisfied smile.
He turned to the soldiers beside him and said, "In three months, the new soldiers will be ready for battle."
"Look at the current progress of the war. The battle between Meng Yuan and Yuan Dynasty will take at least two years. When the new recruits are trained well, we will still have a chance to make meritorious deeds."
"The general is absolutely right." The soldier who was a retainer of the former Jingji family said with clasped fists in salute.
Kyogoku Dosan smiled and turned back, continuing to look at the soldiers training in front.
Haida wanted to use the three cities on the front line to consume the Han army's soldiers. The idea is right. But the problem is that the national power of the Han Dynasty was too strong.
The place is thousands of miles away and has a population of tens of millions.
The bureaucracy is elite and administratively efficient.
Although there are still obvious ethnic distinctions. But Wu Nian also has wonderful uses. Use Fuso people to lead Fuso soldiers and Fuso warriors in battle.
Let the Goguryeo people lead the Goguryeo soldiers.
Let the Han generals lead the Han soldiers.
Before the war, the court had considered the issue of battle losses. He urgently ordered Governor Youyan and Governor Xinqi to recruit warriors in the original Fusang territory.
Give him a salary and serve as a reserve. We can just wait for the battle losses ahead to make up for it.
In Fuso. Samurai accounted for one-tenth of the population. The large number of ronin in society is a source of instability in the Fuso area.
Let them join the battlefield and make achievements. It’s also the best of both worlds.
Kyogoku Dosan's new recruits have been available for two months. As long as they train for a while, they will be ready for battle.
Haida's attrition tactics are useful, but not too overwhelming.
............
Ninggu City.
Three days have passed since the killings. The body has been buried. But the city still exudes a faint smell of blood. The two hundred Han households in the city live an uneasy life.
Wu Nian subsidized these Han people and personally sent county magistrates and officials to pacify them.
The dragon did not destroy the houses in the city. All the households were encamped outside the city. Groups of reserve troops and horses were sent here from Jiang County.
The generals rested on the spot, replenished their troops, repaired weapons, armor, etc.
This morning.
Long Qie summoned Tieniu, Liu Wu, Zhao Mancheng, Li Yunchong, Kumamoto Neiji and other generals in his tent.
Among the generals, Tieniu and Liu Wu, two old brothers from Beishan Fort, have the highest status.
Long Qie is wearing a red robe, with a steel knife hanging on his waist, sitting high on the commander's seat. With a solemn expression, he said: "Everyone, although we have captured the city, Beta City is the hard nut to crack."
"A large army attacks the city. If a ten thousand households attack, even the Han soldiers will be tired. They need to be rotated."
"Although our troops are now damaged in the battle, the imperial court is constantly replenishing them."
"You must train the new recruits diligently. Focus on training them how to attack the city. In a short period of time, they will regain a certain combat strength. Join the king and the armies will take turns to attack Beta City."
Without Feng Chong present, the scene would have been very harmonious.
Everyone's status is clear, and it's clear who is the leader and who is the tail.
"Don't worry, general. Restore combat strength, perform meritorious service in battles, and destroy Meng Yuan. We are more active than anyone else." Tieniu stretched out his right hand, patted his chest and said with a smile.
"Yes." Long Qie hummed, smiled, stood up and said, "First attack Beta City. Then drive straight in. Brothers, let's kill all the Mengyuan people together."
"yes."
Tieniu, Liu Wu and Long Qie felt the same way and clenched their fists loudly.
Zhao Mancheng, Li Yunchong, and Neji Kumamoto did not resonate so much, but in order to join the group, they also responded with fists clasped.
The Han army fought with soldiers and horses, and suffered great losses.
But the blood returned slowly but surely.
The main force of the Han army, directly commanded by Wu Nian, acted as the main force in conquering cities and territories.
Morning. Genius has just dawned.
On Beta City, the soldiers and civilians were ready.
Meng Yuan had formal soldiers guarding ten thousand households and strong militiamen who had been trained for several months.
Wu Nian's arrow letter had a great influence on the army and the people. But the tipping point has not yet been reached.
The Mongolian people still have a certain degree of cohesion and are a proud fighting nation.
The reputation of the Second Han army was not very good, and they attacked cities and captured territory. Under the propaganda from the upper levels, many Mongolian people did not believe that the Han army would let them go.
Therefore. The morale of the Mongolian and Yuan soldiers and civilians in the city is still very high. Their eyes were firm and their expressions were resolute.
"Dong dong dong!!!!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Drums and horns sounded almost at the same time. The drums and horns were shouting, and murderous intent was boiling.
"Creak, creak, creak." The door of the Han military camp slowly opened. Groups of Han troops pulled out heavy siege equipment such as well trucks, ladder trucks, and wooden curtain trucks, and then lined up in order.
Large numbers of Han soldiers and horses were dispatched.
The flag with the character "Han" flutters in the wind and makes a hunting sound.
The so-called flag itself has no dignity. Only the banner of a strong army has majesty. Nowadays, the Han soldiers are unparalleled, even the proud fighting nation is slightly inferior.
The "Han" flag is like the sun, dazzling and exuding the highest majesty.
In front of the city gate tower. Jin Ting'en, wearing heavy armor and surrounded by his own soldiers, watched the Han army in front. Seeing this, he couldn't bear it any longer, so he pulled out the steel knife from his waist and shouted: "Warriors, don't forget your bloodline. We are the proud Meng Yuan people, a fighting nation."
"It is our destiny to die in battle. Prepare to fight."
"Yes." Meng Yuan soldiers and civilians roared in unison, and their momentum was not weak.
"Da da da!!!" A group of heavy armored cavalry galloped out of the Han army camp gate. The cavalrymen were armed with spears and their breath was thick.
The young general in the lead is still a little immature, but he is also mighty and majestic. Holding the eight-foot-long horse in hand, he looked forward and looked heroic.
It was Wu Min.
Wu Min led the imperial guards and surrounded Wu Nian to the battlefield.
Without him saying a word, all the soldiers were focused on Wu Nian.
King of Han.
My king.
The eyes of all the soldiers were fiery, and their faces were filled with admiration, respect, and enthusiasm. Then they slowly lowered their heads to show respect.
Wu Nian tightened his reins and stopped his horse, looking at the city ahead. He hit the riding whip with a wave of his hand and ordered: "Attack the city."
