A small soldier of the frontier army in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 454 Convergence March

The Jingbian army has strict discipline, three cannons are fired, and the whole army is lined up on the teaching field. Anyone who fails to arrive, regardless of the general, will be killed!
The emergency gongs of General Camp B rang continuously, and Zhao Rongsheng shouted: "Go out in order of soldiers' numbers, and take your own weapons!"
Everyone in the armor passed by the weapon rack one by one, took their armor-piercing long cone guns, and quickly walked outside the door.And in the first room of friend A, there were also rows of sergeants wearing armor and holding spears.Ding team has five top men, all spearmen of the same color.
When he came outside the door, Zhao Rongsheng glanced over the lined up brothers, and shouted: "Report the number according to the number of soldiers."
Han Kaihui shouted: "Ten!"
Wu Dingguo shouted: "Nine!"
"Eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two..."
Zhao Rongsheng shouted: "One!"
He took his own horse and shouted: "Quan Jia runs forward and goes to the team to level the field."
Immediately, the whole team was running, with the sound of heavy footsteps stepping on the ground, and behind them, the sound of Friend A's whistle continued.
When they came to the flat field of the team, the team officer Sun Xuesheng stood there with his hands behind his back. He was wearing armor with blue tassels floating on his helmet. Sun Guan, who is usually gentle, now held the military book, and his expression was unprecedentedly serious.Beside him, Li Song, the guard, also stood with a serious expression.
Seeing that Zhao Rongsheng was the first to arrive leading the team, Sun Guan team couldn't help nodding.
Then, the sound of heavy footsteps came, and the remaining Sijia also arrived one by one.
Luo Liangzuo was the third team A to arrive. He led the horse and ran nimbly, while urging his brothers in A: "Quick, quick."
Soon, the top five of the D team all arrived in front of the management team, and Sun Xuesheng said in a deep voice: "The whole team reports."
Zhao Rongsheng roared: "The rear of the right battalion, the first team of the second team and the D team, all the members have arrived."
Lai Dexiang shouted: "The rear of the right battalion, the second team of the second team and the D team, all the members have arrived."
"... Top three, all members have arrived."
"...Four Armies..."
Sun Xuesheng swept his gaze, closed the military booklet, and shouted: "Let's go."
Also holding the horse and leading the whole team, they ran towards the teaching ground in the headquarters.
On the teaching ground of President B, Huang Wei, the general manager, had a stern face, and all the officers of the general headquarters were waiting in the teaching ground.The flag-bearer beside him is holding a general flag of Zhang Zhang, which is red in color, with green dragons and white tigers, red birds and basaltic weapons in the flags, the breeze blows, the sound of hunting, the golden waves, the sun and the moon rolling in the middle...
In the end, the four generals in the rear were gathered under Qian Zongtian Qiming's banner, and each headquarter and team lined up neatly and headed for the battalion teaching ground.
……
Right guard Baihu camp, teaching field.
The guerrilla general, the right battalion general Zhong Xiancai stood silently, beside him and behind him were the battalion officials.Next to it, the flag bearers and golden drummers stood upright. One of the flag bearers was holding a flag of Zhang Wuying, with a fringed head and a pheasant tail. When the morning wind blew, the fiery red flag kept churning.
Compared with the white and round face at the beginning, Zhong Xiancai has lost a lot of weight these years, but the thinner he is, the more handsome and resolute he appears, only his voice has not changed, it is still soft-spoken.
He looked at the hourglass, thoughtful: "I don't know my battalion headquarters, a few cannon shots can reach the Chinese Army's teaching ground."
The officer of the Chinese army said: "Foreign troops fired three cannons, with an interval of half an hour between each cannon, while our army fired two quarters of an hour. However, our Jingbian army is well-trained. According to the general's estimation, even if the interval is shortened, it can be fired within two minutes. The cannon rang, or soon, all the staff arrived at the Chinese army camp."
All the battalion generals around him nodded, their faces brightened.
Zhong Xiancai also smiled slightly, and said softly, "From the time when the Shunxiang Army came to the present, it's not easy for a general."
Not long after, Qian Zong Yin Yijin from the front of the right battalion, Tian Qiming from the back, Yang Guodong from the left, and Gao Gui from the right led the troops to the battalion teaching ground one after another.
Zhong Xiancai led more than [-] soldiers from the right battalion to march towards the Chinese Army's teaching ground.
……
Just after the second cannon rang, Zhong Xian led the army to the teaching ground of the Chinese Army. At this time, the rear battalion of the Han Dynasty had already arrived at the teaching ground, and it seemed that they arrived a moment earlier than Zhong Xian.
At this time, the Artillery Battalion, Cavalry Battalion, Sharp Whistle Battalion, and Supplies Battalion under the Chinese Army had already arrived, but they had the advantage of camping.
The two cavalry battalions, plus the battalions of the Chinese Army, had about 5000 people, and the Chinese Army's teaching ground was covered in darkness.
So many people gathered together, but there was no sound. The fiery red armor, the fiery red flag, the evil spirit, the bloody smell, and the mighty air spread over the teaching ground.
Being in such an environment can make people's blood boil the most.
Zhao Rongsheng held his spear tightly, and beside him were countless soldiers in armor like him. Looking up, there was nothing but a red flag or a red flag, and an iron helmet or an iron helmet. This kind of steel power filled Zhao Rongsheng with pride, almost wanting to have The feeling of breaking out.
Beside Lai Dexiang, Luo Liangzuo was panting heavily, and Deng Yibiao, who usually looked calm, had his chest heaving rapidly at this moment, apparently too excited to restrain himself.
I don't know how long it took, suddenly the sound of cannons rang out, and then a huge whistling sound came from the army formation in the distance: "The general wins!"
The sound of a mountain whistling like a tsunami, with an astonishing momentum, suddenly approached Zhao Rongsheng's array,
Zhao Rongsheng felt as if his surroundings were exploding, and cheers and thunder roared in his ears like an avalanche.
He blushed, and before he had time to think, he raised his spear and roared, "Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!
Amidst the roar of the mountains and the tsunami, the sound of hooves sounded. Uncle Zhongyong, the general who conquered the captives, Wang Dou, dressed in shining armor and wearing a red cloak, rode a tall blood-colored horse, and came slowly.Behind him are the soldiers of the guard battalion who also rode their horses and wore bright helmets, followed by the officers and generals of the commander-in-chief battalion.
Wang Dou glanced over the soldiers in the field, and went to the high platform of the military parade.
Over there, Ma Guoxi, the soldier of the East Road, Wu Zhi, the magistrate of Yanqing Prefecture, and others, as well as the generals of the Zhongyi Battalion, have been waiting for a long time, and there are Wen Fangliang, Gao Shiyin and others who have not yet set off.It can be seen that in the face of the might of the Jingbian army, the officials of the East Road and the old generals of the Zhongyi Battalion all changed their faces.
In the following moments, Zhao Rongsheng couldn't hear what was being said on the stage, he only saw one general after another coming to the stage to report to the general.
Finally, Zhao Rongsheng saw the general come to the stage, drew out his sharp sword, and slowly turned his arm.
Everyone looked at Wang Dou's hand. Wang Dou's sword moved slowly, and with a sudden flash of sword light, it pointed in the direction of Liaodong.
Everyone cheered, louder and louder: "Let's go, go, go!"
Wang Dou pointed his sword again, amidst the cheers, the Ye Bu Shou from the Sharp Whistle Battalion rushed out first.
Then the soldiers from the Right Battalion and the Back Battalion set out, and then the battalions of the Central Army and the cavalry came to the rear.
A torrent poured out of the barracks in the western suburbs.
……
The army went out, and the people of Yongning City, from the forbidden road of the barracks to the west gate of Yongning City, were closely guarding early in the morning.
The army continued to move forward, passed the crowds, and arrived in front of the west gate. Wang Dou's mother Zhong Shi, together with Xie Xiuniang, Ji Junjiao's daughters, and the wives of the generals, all poured wine to the soldiers.Mrs. Uncle, how solemn is Mrs. Uncle's toast?So Wen Daxing, Zhong Xiancai, and the Han and Korean generals all stopped and accepted it together with the general.
Bowls of wine were poured, and the generals Qian Zong and his superiors each had a bowl. Zhong looked at Wang Dou, his eyes full of expectations and pride for his son.
She was very angry and shouted loudly: "Dou'er, and all the generals, drink this bowl of wine together, I wish you all the best!"
Wang Dou said loudly: "Okay!"
He took the wine bowl and drank it down.
All the generals behind him were also full of drinks, and then they threw their bowls to the ground one by one, full of pride.
Wang Dou took a deep look at his mother, then at Xie Xiuniang, Ji Junjiao and the girls, they all smiled at Wang Dou.
Wang Dou bowed deeply to his mother at the end, got on the horse, Han Chao and others also got on the horse, and rode away.
At this time, someone said: "Officer, wait."
Wang Dou looked, but it was Miss Zheng, the wife of Han Chao. She ran out of the crowd and said to Han Chao: "Officer, my concubine went to the Niangniang Temple yesterday to ask for a safety talisman, and I will put it on for you."
Han Chao trembled in shock, looked at his side embarrassingly, and whispered to his wife, "What are you doing, let others see the joke."
Madam Zheng said generously, "What are you afraid of? I care about my man. Is it wrong?"
She said loudly to Mrs. Zhong: "Mrs. Taibo, do you think it's okay to be a concubine?"
Zhong laughed loudly: "That's right, it's true that you care about your own man."
Han Chao let her manipulate him, and he was so ashamed that he couldn't bear it. In the end, Mrs. Zheng said softly: "Officials should be careful, I am waiting for you to come back."
Kissed Han Chao on the face, and Han Chao hurried away with a cry, blushing like a monkey's butt.
The crowd laughed loudly and whistled everywhere.
Wang Dou was also taken aback, and then laughed, Lady Zheng dared to love and hate, she was really a good match for Han Dynasty.
……
The army marched all the way, and there were people seeing them off everywhere. When it was about to reach Yanqing, Chen Jiugao, the commander of Liugou, also saw him off at the intersection of the official road.
From that day on, Chen Jiugao regarded Wang Dou as his best friend, and when his best friend went to war, Chen Jiugao thought it was right to come and see him off.
Wang Dou thanked him, the army passed Yanqing Prefecture, and soon, sentry cavalry came to report, the general of Xuanzhen Yang Guozhu led the army not far from Yulin Fort, and the general of Datong Wang Pu led the army, and also passed Huailai City .
Wang Dou smiled and said, "Okay."
He knew that Yang Guozhu set off three days earlier, and Wang Pu set off in mid-June.
Originally, the best and easiest marching route from Datong Town to East Road was to go down the Sanggan River.However, it was only possible to transport grain by boat when the water in the Sanggan River was sufficient, but it was not possible now, so it could only go by land, which was a bit slower.
Finally, Wang Pu has arrived, and he can join himself and the others.
Wang Dou led the army to Yulinbao and waited. Here, the official road is divided into two, one goes to Yanqing and Yongning, and the other goes to Huailai, Baoan, Chadaocheng, and Badaling.
General Yu Gui of Nanshan Road led the generals in Yulin to see each other off on the official road, and Wang Dou greeted him with auspicious words. Soon, smoke and dust billowed on the official road leading to Huailai. A group of cavalry came rumbling and galloping.
These cavalrymen were all bright red with long body armor, cloud-winged helmets, and arm hands. They were skilled in equestrian skills and showed a sturdy air.
Each of them has a general flag with a slanted side, each team has a back flag, and each armor has a gun flag. Among the densely packed flags, a huge Yang character flag is flying high.
The generals under his banner are all stout and proud.The leader was a burly man with a weathered face and extremely thick armor. The red cloak on his body was puffed up as he was running. It was Zuo Dudu, General Zhenshuo, and Chief Military Officer of Xuanfu Town Yang Guozhu.
