Chapter six hundred and thirty seventh source of living water

The orders of the Governor's Office were conveyed and the scope of activities of the Divine Blade Army were specified. Zhang Fengyi's speech continued:

"......There are only 1,500 soldiers, only so many! In the future, the Martial Guard Corps will not be assigned one more! No matter what measures you take, whether you recruit from the Mongols or capture slaves on the grassland, as long as you have the ability, you will expand the Divine Blade Army to a 100,000 army, and the Marquis of Jiangling and I will also like to hear about it..."

"But remember, except for the supply of weapons, the Martial Guard Army will not allocate another piece of food. You have to solve all the food by yourself! No matter how you survive on the grassland, whether you are a guard for the caravan or borrow food and grass from the Mongolian tribe, you can find a way for yourself!"

Zhang Fengyi’s word “borrow” is very heavy, which makes the officers’ expressions very rich.

"As for what weapons you use, you can choose as you choose, use whatever you want. If you want to use a grenade, you can! The Martial Guard Legion is open for supply, but remember, you have to find a way to get the weapons yourself. The Martial Guard Legion will not send a sergeant to transport weapons!"

"The general framework of the Divine Blade Army has been established. Ten battalions are ten battalions, so there is no need to change. As for the organization below the battalion, you can play it with it. The overall principle is to be conducive to survival and combat!"

...

"...The Mongols on the grassland are fierce and do not have absolute strength, so they should not be humiliated easily! You must remember that survival is the first priority. If you have no life, what can you make achievements?"

...

"The Governor's Office will always pay attention to your updates. Once you feel that the conditions are ripe, you will build a city in the corresponding important place. I hope you will show your power. Even if the city is built, the finances of Jiangling Hou will be dragged down, I will try my best to ask for me!"

The officers laughed, and then they were full of confidence. Such relaxed management and such a vast world, what kind of space should be used to play!

The Divine Blade Army was officially formed, and its attitude can be described as fanaticism. Dou Shiwen was originally a master who could not stand loneliness, and Chen Huan, who always wanted to make trouble, could not be full of vitality without being full of vitality. Only Liu Wenxiu was meticulous and calm, and always held the reins of the wild horse of the Divine Blade Army, so that the Divine Blade Army would not let the Divine Blade Army run over.

This is obviously Lin Chunhong's intentional arrangement for the Divine Blade Army.

The officers of the Divine Blade Army were carefully selected and had their own skills in managing and fighting wars. Within ten days, the Divine Blade Army met the requirement of soldiers returning to their hearts and smooth command. After Zhang Fengyi's inspection, Zhang Fengyi issued a military order for the Divine Blade Army to attack.

Dou Shiwen, Liu Wenxiu and Chen Huan had been together for several days. After receiving the order, they immediately led more than a thousand men and horses to the north like wild horses, quickly climbing over Yinshan along the Kundulun River Valley, and heading straight to Guyang.

During the Warring States Period, the State of Zhao built a city in Guyang. During the Qin Dynasty, Guyang belonged to Jiuyuan County. During the Ming Dynasty, Guyang was occupied by the Mongolian Maoming An tribe and was nomadic here.

In the eighth year of Chongzhen, Maoming'an tribe, led by the leader Che Gen, surrendered to Huang Taiji.

When Zhang Fengyi was in Lucheng north, Che Gen's mind had obviously not turned around and had not yet realized that the power comparison between the Central Plains and the grassland had undergone a fundamental change. He was still loyal to Huang Taiji, but he carefully warned his clan members not to cross Yinshan to avoid contact with the Wuwei Legion.

Che Gen knew that there were almost a million Mongolians gathered to the west of Lucheng, most of whom were the Ordos tribe and the Dalat tribe that had lost their ranch. Che Gen took it for granted that the Martial Guards would fight with the tribes for a long time and were unable to cross Yinshan.

So, when Dou Shiwen led more than a thousand light cavalry to appear suddenly on the northern foot of Yinshan Mountain, Chegen had no time to concentrate tribal forces at all, and the gathering points of several major tribes were defeated one by one, so there was no time to organize effective resistance.

Even Che Gen was caught off guard and was captured alive by Dou Shiwen, becoming a prisoner at the ranks.

In the next few days, Dou Shiwen led the Divine Blade Army, holding Chegen to the north of Yinshan Mountain, clamoring east and west, and rushing north and south, and surrendering the herdsmen of Maoming'an tribe everywhere.

The Divine Blade Army had no intention of being polite to the small tribe that was unwilling to surrender. They cooperated with the Mongolian men who surrendered in advance to seize their cattle, sheep, wealth, war horses, kill all the men who dared to resist, and all the rest of the men and others were divided into slaves and escorted them to Guyang in groups.

The first attack was a great success. The surrounding areas of Guyang, cattle, sheep, and grass were beyond the sight of the boundaries, which was enough for the Divine Blade Army to eat for more than a year. As for the soldiers, Dou Shiwen led a group of legions and selected more than 800 soldiers from the surrendered tribes and slaves in one breath, and all of them were destroyed and enriched into the various battalions. The Divine Blade Army's troops expanded to more than 2,000 people.

Dou Shiwen was still calm. In the following days, he led five battalions to personally take charge of Guyang, and sent another five battalions to expand their range of activities everywhere, causing chaos to the north of Yinshan Mountain to make the whole area of ​​activities to reach the Great Gobi Desert.

After the five battalions returned to Guyang, Dou Shiwen sent out the five battalions in Guyang, leaving half of the troops as a strong backing for the front-line activity team.

After hearing this, Zhang Fengyi praised Dou Shiwen very much, and his heart was hanging over, and finally put it back on his stomach. When Lin Chunhong, who was far away in Jiangnan, learned about it, he couldn't help but praise Dou Shiwen to Zhou Feng: "There is a faint style of Di Wei on Xiao Douzi. If you sharpen it for a few more years, the commander of the army will be competent!"

Zhou Feng snorted coldly and said, "I'm still talking about Xiaodouzi! You urged Chen Jixing to the grassland. What's the point of hiding in Jiangnan? Aunt Chen's face was crying every day. The old lady said that when you return to Jingzhou, she will peel you up with cramps and skin!"

"I'm hiding in Jiangnan? Can't you see how important Jiangnan is now?"

...

Not to mention that Lin Chunhong worked hard in Jiangnan to manage, but also that Dou Shiwen saw that there was no oil or water to catch within hundreds of miles of Guyang. After leaving a stone tablet where the Divine Blade Army was stationed here in the Great Gobi Desert, he still used the fifth battalion as the basis and the other five battalions as the spears to rush the troops eastward.

Li Dingguo and Chen Jixing led the first battalion and undertake the most arduous tasks. Nothing else, the capable ones are working hard. Since the division of troops in each battalion, Li Dingguo and Chen Jixing have obtained the most abundant gains and their troops have expanded the fastest. Now, there are more than 500 string control men under their command, more than 1,600 war horses, and their troops have expanded by more than five times.

Chen Jixing was born in the Guard Camp. Before entering the grassland, he had never led troops to fight. This is naturally different from Li Dingguo, a child who had suffered a lot since childhood. He saw that his subordinates grew stronger and more powerful than the world. I, Chen Jixing, could be proud everywhere.

The vast grassland made Chen Jixing feel proud that birds could fly. He and Li Dingguo walked hand in hand and said without a word: "The Marquis' move is simply amazing. In less than two months, the first battalion's troops increased from more than 100 to 500. At this speed, I'm afraid that the Russians mentioned by the Marquis may be able to confront the Marquis' Russians at the latest until next year!"

Li Dingguo sneered: "Clashing with the Russians? It's so early! Let me ask you, where have we traveled in the past two months? How far are these places from Lucheng?"

Chen Jixing's talent was the best. Li Dingguo made a little effort and understood it. He suddenly said: "What Yingtou means is that our activities must have a stable rear base?"

"No? Why do you think Commander Dou left five battalions every time? Mongolia north of Yinshan is a pile of loose sand, so we are naturally as if we are in water. This time we go east, where the power of the Qing Tartars is quite powerful, and the Mongols are no longer a pile of loose sand. They are likely to gather heavy troops to encircle and suppress them. The real hard days are still coming!"

Li Dingguo patiently taught that he was over 20 years old. In recent years, he either studied in the martial arts school or led troops to fight in the Xiongwei Legion. His mind and nature have been tempered to be extremely mature. Of course, he knew that Lin Chunhong arranged Chen Jixing as his partner, just hoping that he would give Chen Jixing careful guidance. Therefore, he was tireless in teaching and explained the truth very thoroughly.

The sky is blue, and Li Dingguo also enjoys this happy life very much and is in a very good mood. As for the past careers of bandits, it is like a dream, and it is so unreal to recall.

Thinking that Chen Jixing, a child who was soaked in honey water, could endure hardships and was quite energetic, Li Dingguo couldn't help but look at him with admiration. Li Dingguo thought to himself: It seems that no matter what the living environment is, the key to whether a child can become a talent lies in cultivation. He thought of the twists and turns before Chen Jixing came to the grassland, and couldn't help but ask, "I heard that you had a girl's belly in Jingzhou and then went on a war. Is this true?"

Chen Jixing was embarrassed, his face turned red, and he replied embarrassedly: "Hey... it's all about tears! I'm not forced yet! The old lady and my mother told me not to leave the guard camp. I thought about leaving the Chen family first, and no one objected! Unexpectedly, when I brought the girl to the old lady and my mother, they still disagreed! They said that it's okay to take a concubine or go to war! In the end, there was no way, so I just ignored it and followed the Marquis to Dongsheng."

Li Dingguo laughed so hard that Chen Jixing was so happy that he wanted to get into the ground. He stuttered and said, "Don't make fun of me. I thought I would stay in the grassland forever and never go back for the rest of my life. I was so depressed in the Central Plains!"

"Be your dream! We have to go back for three years at most! Then we will come back again with another group of people!"

Chen Jixing was shocked and hurriedly asked why.

Li Dingguodao: "The Marquis formed the Divine Blade Army and expanded the land was naturally one of the reasons. If what I expected was not bad, what the Marquis wanted most was probably to temper our people!"

Chen Jixing was young and had no experience, so he couldn't help but be stunned: "Is there anything more important than diving the land?"

Li Dingguo Dao: "If it were just for the purpose of expanding the land, would the Marquis of Jiangling still lack thousands or tens of thousands of troops? As for food, financial resources, etc., it is not a problem. Jiangling Hou had such great strength to form the Divine Blade Army. While expanding the land, he also tempered a group of generals who could conquer and fight. This transaction is absolutely worth it! Think about it again, what is the difference between you now and two months ago?"

Chen Jixing was almost obsessed with hearing this and said stuttered: "Is Marquis Jiangling focusing on cultivating the future commander?"

Li Dingguo nodded and said, "This is just one of them. You also know that the large-scale application of gunpowder has completely changed. I am afraid that the Marquis of Jiangling still hopes that we will explore the future combat mode. Seize the opportunity. The commander in the army will eventually grow old and we need to take over the future. This time, more than 20 of us have received training, and there will be more in the future. The big waves wash away the sand, and all that can be left is gold!"
