Chapter 222 Lion Brigade

[The third update, please ask for red tickets and collection!]

After half a month of long journey, Liu Dazhuang led the troops of the two regiments of the Xiong Division Brigade and finally reached the Aoki River. At this time, the Aoki River can see the Han soldiers coming and going on the tower, and the surrounding towers are also firmly closed. A large number of cattle and sheep are placed outside the city, surrounded by railings, because there are too many cattle and sheep. If they are not placed outside the city, the interior of the city cannot be installed at all.

A sharp-eyed soldier on the tower suddenly saw a group of people coming from afar. The number of people seemed to be quite large, at least ten times theirs. The soldier immediately shouted and said, "Captain, captain, look! Someone! A lot of people!" With a shout, the soldiers on the rest of the city tower exclaimed one after another and looked over with their eyes.

At this time, the man known as the captain came over and saw him look with a telescope. After looking at it, he smiled and said, "Brothers, don't worry. It's our own people, our own people. You see, you are wearing the military uniform of our Pingbei Army. Look, I'll call the battalion commander.

When Zhang Yang left, a battalion was stationed in the Aoki River. Now the highest officer here is the battalion commander. Now that Zhang Yang is not here, the battalion commander is the biggest, the local emperor. However, these soldiers are strictly duty-abiding and will never move other women except their own women. A steel-like army must first have iron-like discipline. At this time, there are already 7,000 young women in the Aoki River, and there are only young women and little girls in it. As for the older publicity, they don't want it.

About a quarter of an hour later, the black dots on that day have come to the bottom of the Qingmu River City. Five thousand soldiers are vast, and a yellow dragon flag with a black background is flying in the wind, among which there are several lion flags representing the Xiong Division. After arriving at the city of Qingmu River, Liu Dazhuang rode forward in person and shouted to the soldiers above, "I am the commander of the Xiong Division Brigade. I will take over the city in front of the prince. Brothers, please open the gate and let us in." Although the soldiers of Aoki River knew that the people who came here were the Pingbei Army, they only distinguished from the clothes, so they did not immediately open the door to greet them. After all, it was also possible that the enemy wore their military uniforms to blow up the city.

At this time, the battalion commander in the city walked into the city and looked down. It was indeed Liu Dazhuang. He met Liu Dazhuang when he went to the barracks with Zhang Yang in Xi'an. Naturally, he knew him. So he shouted, "General, please wait. Can the general get a book? If you have a book, please let the villain have a look. Although the battalion commander knew that this was Liu Dazhuang, he still insisted on the procedure and receiving the book. After the battalion commander said, Liu Dazhuang took out a book from his arms. At the same time, he slowly took down a basket with a rope from the wall. Liu Dazhuang stepped forward and put the book in the basket. Then the basket was slowly pulled up. Finally, the book went to the battalion commander. The battalion commander took a look at the book. He immediately said, "General, wait a minute, this is to open the gate."

After the battalion commander said, the soldiers below began to open the gate.

"Open the gate quickly, this is the commander of the male division brigade! It is said that he followed the prince from Yangzhou.

"The one who gave us a thousand war horses? Thanks to him, he gave us a thousand horses, otherwise we really couldn't stand on the grassland.

"Yes, that's it. Speaking of which, we still owe them 2,000 horses."

"It's just 2,000 horses. We have more horses, just give them 3,000 horses and a lot of them!"

"That's not good. These war horses are dedicated to the prince. They can't take them away casually. At that time, the prince will assign these horses.

When the soldiers were talking on the tower, the gate under the tower slowly opened, and then the battalion commander in the gate walked out in person. After all, their official position was still very low. Since there was no formal title, all of them were signs of recruits on the shoulders of officers at all levels.

"Lord Commander, you are finally here. This is your letter." With that, the battalion commander handed the book in his hand to Liu Dazhuang. Liu Dazhuang took it in his hand with a blank face and put it in his arms. The battalion commander continued: "A few days ago, a lot of Qing troops from Datong came to visit us. It is estimated that they will come soon. We are worried about what to do with so many cattle and sheep outside the city. Now that you are here, we don't have to worry about it." The battalion commander said with relief.

Zhang Yang is estimated to have arrived in Yulin at this time, but the battalion commander doesn't know exactly where it is in Yulin. It is a little impossible to let Zhang Yang return to the division for assistance. Now, on the whole vast grassland, their Qingmu River is a lonely city. Walking towards the northeast is Weiyuanwei, then Yulinwei, and then Datong Youwei. Moreover, this generation has built a lot of fortresses because of the front line of the Ming army against the enemy, and the defense is also very good. These castles are all from the Qing army. You can imagine how dangerous this place is.

Liu Dazhuang asked with a little interest, "What's your name?" Looking at this young man in his twenties, Liu Dazhuang couldn't help thinking of his youth.

The young battalion commander smiled and said, "Your Excellency, my name is Li Guoran. I was left here because I am not good at riding. I don't know where our commander went. Oh, it's so boring to stay here."

Liu Dazhuang said, "Let's go in first. Tell me about the situation around you. Since you said before that a lot of Qing troops came to explore, that is to say, they know the specific situation of the people here. You are only 500 people, and there are so many cattle and sheep outside the city. They will definitely not let go, and it is very likely that In the next few days, I will come to attack the Aoki River. We need to prepare early.

When Li Guoran heard this, he nodded like a chicken eating, and said, "Well, those Qing soldiers will definitely not look at so many of us. Maybe they are on the way. But now that the commander has come, we are not afraid. Even if the Qing army comes, we can still hold it!"

"Haha" Liu Dazhuang laughed and said, "There is no need to flatter them. I don't think there will be too many of them. After all, they still have to defend your commanders everywhere, and they know that your number is very small, and they won't send too many people. You're right. Now that we are here, we will definitely be able to defend the Aoki River. This commander brought 5,000 people, and the commander of Yu Mingjun, who also wants Ying Yangwei, is about to arrive now. That is to say, nearly 6,000 people have come. The enemy does not know this variable, so we will give him a plan to invite you into the urn!"

"What! The commander-in-chief also came. Great, it's him that I admire. He is the eldest brother of our commander. And Ying Yangwei is the most elite force in all the army. Which one doesn't want to enter Ying Yangwei? Thinking of Ying Yangwei entering the enemy's rear and fighting with the enemy, his blood is boiling. The battalion commander said happily. Yu Mingjun is indeed very famous.

"You will see him soon. By the way, your epaulettes are just new recruits. Now you have captured so many cattle and sheep, so many women, which shows that you have experienced a lot of battles. I will write to the general and ask the general to give you the rank according to military merit."

After Liu Dazhuang said, the battalion commander quickly said happily, "Thank you for your command."

"Bright, commander, when will you bring these women, cattle and sheep back? Don't just put it here."

Liu Dazhuang said, "When this battle is over, we will transport those cattle, sheep and horses back. But your commander owes me 2,000 war horses, and I want to accept it.

Then Li Guoran smiled and said, "The horses are ready for my commanders, just waiting to be sent to you, but they are all good war horses. It's definitely carefully selected. It's in the separate fence on the left side of the city. You can have a look now.

Liu Dazhuang smiled and said, "I'll go and have a look."

"Report!" At this time, a scout hurriedly ran in from the outside, and it could be seen that he was running very fast and very anxious.
