0444 Skyfall

In the temporary military tent, Wuhuang Andongye met with two civilian generals.

Cai Jingzhong and Duan Mulei were originally just mutiny soldiers in Ruidong. They rebelled because of the lack of pay and noise. It happened that the thirteen brothers of the Yuan Dynasty gathered in groups. At that time, they joined the gang. Because they had experience in military training, they were relatively good at training and combat. They gradually showed that they were higher than others in the siege of the siege and the battle with the police and teaching soldiers. The ability to occupy a certain position in their respective civilian armies. Later, because the civilian army could not withstand the field pursuit of the wolves, they had to move to the Ruibei Mountains and the "Galo River" and other places. The two of them judged the situation, took the initiative to show their sincerity to the empire, accepted the collection of the wolves, and thus naturalized in Kanto.

In the battle to capture Ruidong, Cai Jingzhong and Duan Mulei both showed a strong ability to lead troops and organize. Even in the battle against Ruidong Chengguan, they showed a breakthrough combat ability and entered the vision of Wuhuang Andongye. Therefore, they were soon hired by the "Military Ministry" of the empire and was entrusted with heavy Ren was quickly promoted from a fugitive soldier to a senior general at the level of the Imperial Legion, and was sung as a legend by the playing and singing storytellers of the Central Plains.

Cai Jingzhong and Duan Mulei followed the middle officer and bowed and saluted with their hands crossed in front of their chests. This is not the customary bow of the Central Plains, but the typical etiquette of the Kanto wolves.

Wuhuang Andongye himself does not like red tape, and has always required simplicity in etiquette in the army; and in accordance with military law, he implements military affairs, armor is in his body, and in order to facilitate his actions, etiquette is to be simple, his subordinates meet with the officers, or meet with each other to discuss, but they just bow to each other, and they can't kneel down or worship; while the sand people in the wolves There are quite a lot of people, Monjin, Slings, etc. The simple etiquette of touching the chest and bowing with hands crossed the chest soon became unwritten military etiquette. The Ministry of Military Affairs has even recently specially stipulated new military etiquette, in which these two etiquettes handed down from Sisi have also been incorporated into the military etiquette system. Among them, detailed and strict regulations have been made.

Wuhuang Andongye stroked his chest slightly and returned the salute, and went straight in and asked about Ruidong's defense arrangements. He didn't even say a word of greeting, which made Cai Jingzhong and Duan Mulei feel that the superiors were extremely concerned about Ruidong's defense.

When Cai Jingzhong and Duan Mulei reported the deployment of Ruidong defense, the camp was not only completed, but even dinner was ready to be sent into the camp, that is, fried rice mixed with sugar white cream and milk tofu, dry beef noodles like stones, dried cheese with a sour smell, and water. Boil bacon pieces, salted soybeans, a large pot of broth boiled in dried beef with water, milk tea, salt water, sauces, etc.

Most of these are dry food usually carried by the wolf field cavalry, which is light and easy to carry, can be stored for a long time, and can be eaten without temporary cooking or a little cooking. During the field camp, even the food that Emperor Andongye ate was the same as other knights, without exception, but there was no limit on the quantity.

Wuhuang Andongye invited the two civilian generals to have this dinner together. While eating, he instructed that Ruidong should find a way to make good use of the original Ruidong garrison and training troops. As for the original Ruidong commander, he asked him to take his own soldiers to Fucheng by himself, and the fourth prince An Zixuan arranged an errand for him.

Cai Jingzhong and Duan Mulei obviously don't dare to learn the taste of dry cheese and milk tea. They only break up the dry and hard beef noodles and eat them with salt water, sauce and salted soybeans, boiled bacon, or eat stir-fried rice that has been mixed, and then take a sip. It's just ordinary beef soup.

The two of them saw that the superior was the supreme of 95, and now they could actually eat these coarse foods with relish without any discomfort, and they couldn't help but be a little surprised. These foods are obviously not exquisite and delicious for the king of a country.

"Oh, when I was looking for Sisi, I had eaten ten times worse food than this." Wuhuang Andongye laughed.

The two generals from the civilian army showed surprise in their eyes. Emperor Anton knew his ambition. Because they were promoted later, they neither participated in the early creation of the wolves nor fought with them in the north of the desert. In fact, they are relatively strange to each other, and their understanding of Wuhuang Andongye is even more Most of them come from other people's mouths.

Wuhuang Antonye swallowed a piece of cheese smeared with butter and picked with a knife and said, "When I fought alone in the desert, I was forced to take tens of thousands of people to flee in the vast desert to fight. It is God's blessing to eat this. Sometimes I can't even eat raw meat as hard as a stone, so I can only cut a small mouthful of horse to drink horse blood. Ha ha, let's not talk about this. After eating, we have to take the opportunity to camp in Ruidong tonight to see the defense and preparation of Dongguan on the spot. I have to go to Ruibei for inspection tomorrow morning.

"Yes!" Cai Jingzhong and Duan Mulei.

The next morning, Wuhuang An Dongye led the team north out of Dongguan and galloped 800 miles away to Ruibei.

Wuhuang An Dongye was very satisfied with the inspection of Ruidong's internal and external inspection last night. The various details of Dongguan not only reflected the rich actual combat experience of Cai Jingzhong and Duan Mulei, but also reflected that the two generals from soldiers to generals could stand alone with the experience honed in actual combat.

When I arrived in Ruibei, it was already after noon.

General Rong Heihu, commander of the brigade and the new commander of the civilian infantry regiment, Hou Daxiao, led the generals to welcome Wuhuang Andongye and his entourage in the north.

In front of everyone, Beiguan City has long disappeared. On the west bank of the Ruishui River, there is only a steep slope. There are terraces reclaimed by farmers on the slope, but they have been abandoned in the war.

This situation seems to be unimpeded and unstoppable.

The entire infantry regiment, including the knights of the Guards Division, have become farmers, except for the troops on duty. They have dug many trenches, built obstacles and artillery positions, set up deer firewood, horses, trapped horse pits, animal clips, crossbows, tripping horses, and planted mines, poisons and tobacco, gunpowder and fire oil. , prepare lime and rolling wood, and use whatever you want.

In fact, Emperor Andongye has a clear understanding of the terrain of Beiguan today. In the past, there is no danger at all. The reason why he has to send troops to Ruibei is that there is no Holy See's garrison here, which is a blank area. If the civilian army still has the strength to invade from the north to the south, it is stationed in the north of Ruibei. The infantry regiment can resist, retreat gradually, and finally retreat to the capital city. If the civilian army is unable to advance south, it will naturally fall into the hands of the empire and become the most outpost for the wolves looking at the Central Plains.

For such a risk-free terrain, unless the troops are strong enough and the defense is well prepared enough, no one is confident that they can stay here without retreating. Fortunately, they only need to fight steadily. Otherwise, Emperor Andongye is really a little worried that this 10,000 infantry will be buried here. The Guards Division led by Rong Heihu will soon be transferred to Dingxi, and only the infantry regiment led by Hou Daxiao will stay.

"The gathering of bandits and bees in Ruibei are safe. Our original strategy is just a test in Ruibei. If the civilian army does not come, or although they come, but the competition is not resolute, Ruidi can rest assured; on the contrary, Fucheng and Ruidong have to continue to increase troops. Therefore, although the strategy of fighting has been scheduled, you can't retreat at a touch. If you are perfunctory, you have to fight and kill. You have to make full use of these defense preparations to truly test the true intentions and truth of the civilian army. Wuhuang An Dongye smiled and said loudly, "Guys, this is not a child's play! If anyone falls on the face of the wolves of my empire, I can't forgive him!"

The generals heard that this is not a patrol, but it is obviously a wake-up call for them.
