Chapter 448 Notification

Chen Xujing, who was not good at guarding the city gate in the far Danan Pass, retired successfully, but the two successors afterwards never satisfied the superiors and subordinates. The first person who replaced Chen Xujing was only 44 years old, the former governor of Jianzhou and the southern route recruitment envoy Huo Da. Huo Da's fame was caused by the expedition of the barbarians in the southwest and southeastern mainland. It can be said that his hands were covered with blood, and he still had expertise in mountain combat. But the problem is that he neither had the experience of commanding large mixed corps, lacked the concept of using technical weapons, nor did he have the experience of defending the city gate. According to the court, it would be better not to replace people than to let this guy go. However, Huo Da was not swept out of the house. After taking over the important task of defense of Danan Pass and behind him, he immediately realized that this was not what he was good at.

While soliciting opinions from his subordinates, he completed some of the things that Chen Xujing arranged, and while resigning, he expressed his concerns about his ability. Huo Da also gained the hearts of the ministers in the court because of this attitude. Later, Huo Da was transferred to the commander of Nanzhou, General Pingxi. In addition to the troops stationed at Danan Pass and the troops directly assigned to Danan Pass, the troops stationed in a vast area after attacking Danan Pass were handed over to Huo Dada to take charge. Huo Dada was nominally the deputy of the Danan Pass garrison, but in fact, without Huo Dada nodding in the future, the only thing that could be done by Danan Pass was the father of the guard captain of the Prince Chunnan, Liang Xudao, who was fifty-seven years old.

Originally, the prince promised many people a lot of benefits before he brought the position of Danan Pass to his own hands. In terms of qualifications, Liang Xudao was slightly inferior to Chen Xujing, but in terms of military years, qualifications, military merits, people's reputation, command ability, etc., he was already qualified. However, although Liang Xudao took office smoothly, he was just a castrated Danan Pass garrison position, no longer the most important heavy army group in commanding Chunnan, and he was extremely important. Liang Xudao did not

Chen Xujing's vision was not as stable and upbringing as Huo Da. Without communicating with Huo Da or asking the prince for instructions, he proudly took action to cut off a smuggling route in Danan Pass, which had just begun to recover. Before he could take credit, the prince's reprimand letter had already arrived. It turned out that the actual operator and beneficiary of this route was precisely this prince. Although he didn't quite understand what it meant to be a prince, as a prince, he had to think that he was unlucky.

But after these two struggles, the army that had already had a relatively strong integration under Chen Xujing's deployment is now divided into two parts: Chengguan Guard and local Guard. The various government and military affairs involved are increasingly entangled. At this time, when Chunnan's own airship team is completed, which aspect should it be assigned to? It has become a focus of confusion. From the perspective of facilitating Chengguan Guard, using the airship team to conduct routine patrols and flights to the surrounding areas can always understand the gathering of troops in Xiling, and Danan Guard is no longer at risk of being sneak attacked. In fact, Huo Da himself has no intention of fighting for the airship team. Although he is working hard to learn and use those weapons and is familiar with the technology of large-scale combat that has been verified by Dongping, Xiling and Chunnan themselves as effective, the airship is still too

It was beyond his imagination. Although the airships have achieved good combat performance now, once everyone's fear of the airships such as airships has been solved, the airships with extremely low bomb loads now have fewer and fewer opportunities to achieve similar results. But Huo Da didn't want to fight, which does not mean that others would not fight. His Highness the Second Prince asked several important figures standing on his side to present facts and reason, demonstrating the importance of the aviation force as a strategic offensive force. The airship team should be continuously expanded, but should be kept low and mysterious so that they can make a decisive blow at critical moments, rather than being a dispersed reconnaissance force, always exposed to the enemy. During those days, the Chunnan Dynasty almost became a military discussion meeting. At this time, the Lord of Chunnan had to summon the Juxian King Chang Hongquan to ask, and he also hoped that Jiang Yan would return soon.

The airship team commissioned by Chunnan has only mastered some basic links and is still a long way from being able to fight. Not to mention that they are not as good as the pilots who have been confirmed to stay in the Dongping Army after two rounds of screening, even those who are flying civilian flights are much better than them. In fact, there is no need to discuss who they belong now. It’s just that Chunnan has always had the habit of repeatedly quarreling about something and quarreling to the end, and no one is willing to give in first. This quarrel not only makes many people pay more attention to the airship team, but

At this time, it seemed that after the Danan Pass changed its guard, the atmosphere changed a little, and Xiling was preparing to take action. Some spies who were already lurking began to become active, especially the owners of some restaurants, brothels and inns. Taking advantage of their ability to contact many people, they began to say various sarcastic words that did not touch the bottom line, affecting the travelers and merchants in the past. This area is still a prosperous area in Chunnan. After the occupation, the big families and big businesses in Xiling were expelled. Until now, the entire commercial system is still under rapid construction and development. There are quite a few caravans coming and going, and this influence spreads quickly.

Xiling naturally would not be satisfied with spreading some rumors, but was preparing to retake Danan Pass. The two countries had formed a tug-of-war, largely because Chunnan had been lurking for too long in order to hide, but the troops prepared were not enough, especially the troops that could pounce on Danan Pass as soon as possible. The troops that solved the problem before Danan Pass received reinforcements were not enough. Xiling claimed to be armed with millions, and even now, their total strength was far above Dongping. If it were the past, the army with obvious family traces organized by major families had endured several times with Dongping.

After the war and baptism, after realizing his own disadvantages, he was quite eager to catch up. Many armies had more than one point higher combat power than before. He realized that the Dongping army was completely state-owned and could be mobilized quickly and secretly. There was no need for the army formed by various aristocratic races. When mobilizing, relatives and friends would inevitably leak news. In recent years, Xiling has also used various methods to train an elite army of about 100,000 people. After several years of rest and recuperation, Xiling finally felt that he could make a difference. Compared with Dongping, Chunnan was obviously a better choice to test the sword.

Xiling, the Northern Camp, which was originally formed in Zhongzhou, is now empty. When she first discovered this, the hairs of the spies from the Intelligence Bureau stood up, and they didn't hear any wind in advance. But their investigation was effective afterwards. They soon discovered that the Northern Camp had been mobilized to the south, repaired in a valley south of Anqing for two days, and then continued to go south... Xiling was ready to use troops to Chunnan, and it was self-evident. The goal was even clearer. Where else could it be? Without Danan Pass in hand, Xiling had no choice at all to attack Chunnan.

After gaining this understanding, the spies of the Intelligence Bureau increased the intensity of the sentry detectives. At this time, as the deepest secret of the Intelligence Bureau, Sun Boping also heard the key news. There was a minister of the Ministry of Revenue as an internal agent. Although the Intelligence Bureau did not dare to use this clue more, the help that could be provided at this critical moment was immeasurable. Sun Boping confirmed that the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War had used many secret resources, especially many industries under the name of the Xiling royal family. This time, the royal family was used to temporarily station troops in several villas in the south, which was an unprecedented situation. The supplies used to support the army were even stored in the royal treasury, and even the stored grain, weapons and medicines in the royal treasury. In order to recapture Danan Pass this time, the total force was mobilized as 550,000, including Xiling imitated the heavy equipment of Dongping and the heavy infantry units. The expenses of this part of the troops alone were quite a lot of every day.

For terrible numbers, about 150,000 troops were used to feint at Xunshan Pass, causing the illusion that Xiling was preparing to advance east to attack Dongping. This alone made people lose their chin all over the ground. What expense should this be? The cost of 550,000 troops running for three months would account for more than half of Xiling's total military expenditure. Of course, this time it was not only to prepare to attack Danan Pass, but also to rebuild the prestige of the Xiling royal family. Over the years, he

They were beaten up badly, lost the Zhenbei Army and the Danan Pass. Instead of capturing the Xunshan Pass, they were annihilated a large part of them, and the losses were too heavy. The performance of the certain battalions of each family was really unsatisfactory. If this time, the army formed by the Xiling court itself was successfully attacked by Danan Pass, then the further reorganization of the soldiers of each family in the future will be more confident, and the morale of the Xiling court and the country will inevitably be boosted.

When detailed situation reports were delivered to Tan Xiaopei, the think tanks of the Intelligence Bureau rarely attached their own measurements. The think tanks of the Intelligence Bureau are undoubtedly talented, but they are not good at moral articles, but are good at planning and designing conspiracy. Although they knew that Tan Xiaopei had been guarding against Chunnan, Chunnan was a current allied country after all. Whether this kind of news should be revealed to Chunnan and made them prepare for them is not unanimous, but in general, the think tanks of the Intelligence Bureau tend to be that Xiling had captured the Danan Pass, which is more beneficial to Dongping.

After Ye Tao also read the information, Tan Xiaopei asked, "How?"

Ye Tao shrugged, looking indifferent, and said, "Tong Bingwen has come out again. This old man is really energetic. However, as long as he does not underestimate the enemy, this battle is likely to have some results."

Tan Xiaopei smiled. In his opinion, it doesn't matter whether the results are achieved or not. Xiling and Chunnan fought to the death, and they were bleeding, which was not harmful to Dongping. He smiled and ordered: "Let Danyang spread the news quietly, saying that Chunnan already has an airship team. Make a good arrangement, don't be seen through by anyone. Then, let Nie Rui master the time and notify before Xiling attack... Don't lose your etiquette. Also, remember to let Chunnan's airship team catch up with this battle."
