At the east gate of Chang'an, a dragon in armor stood at the top of the city. He raised the trombone in his hand and blew a loud charge.
The heavy city gate opened, and a thousand imperial guardsmen rode out. They all wore red cloaks and looked like a fiery dragon from behind.
Zhang Yi rode Jueying and Xiao Liu rode Feihuang. They walked side by side, followed by flag bearers and dozens of generals, each of them majestic and majestic, as if they were divine generals descending to earth.
After walking a few dozen meters, Zhang Yi turned around and waved goodbye to Xiaolong who was standing at the top of the city. The city was left to be guarded by Xiaolong. If the city is stable, the whole country will be stable, and Zhang Yi will have no worries.
At this time, Mr. Song, Anu, Yue Ya'er, Zhang Ping'an, Li Guaizi, Hu Tiejiang and others also appeared at the top of the city, silently waving goodbye.
"Are they crying?" Xiao Liu suddenly whispered. She just looked back for a few times and couldn't bear to look more. Parting always makes people sad.
"No, it is an auspicious day to go to war. No one will cry." Zhang Yi smiled and thought Xiao Liu's words were childish.
After saying that, Zhang Yi lowered his head, his eyes became blurry, and tears welled up in his eyes. Alas, the mountains are high and the rivers are long, thousands of miles away. On the day when Anu and Yue Yaer's child was born, Niu Ben and
Xiao Han was afraid that he would not be able to come back.
Although Zhang Yi is also a tough guy, he has deep feelings deep inside, but he is just good at controlling them.
Seeing Yi Ge like this, Xiao Liu couldn't bear to say anything. She turned around and waved, smiling, but tears welled up in her eyes.
The people in the city were the same, standing there like sculptures, with tears streaming down their faces, but they kept blessing and praying in their hearts, hoping that the army would return victoriously.
Too far.
For people living on the Loess Plateau, Korea and Japan were the end of the world. They imagined that they were barbaric lands with many barbaric, cunning and cruel people living there.
The fact is that unless the two countries in the east are pacified, China will never have peace.
…
The Eastern Expeditionary Force filed out.
Following Zhang Yi and Xiao Liu were a thousand women's troops, selected from millions of women in the Kingdom of China, wearing bright yellow cloaks. Their martial arts were enough to fight men, and they had also learned medical skills and could sing.
Good at dancing.
This is the art troupe and medical team led by Koyanagi, the flower of the army, heroic and heroic, loved and protected by everyone.
Then came the eight thousand Mopan City Iron Army, all wearing black cloaks, looking as calm as a mountain and as solid as iron. The warriors had cold faces, but their hearts were burning like fire. They began, and the action to conquer the world began, which made everyone
Very excited.
Then came the two thousand new troops led by Xiao Han, wearing grass-green cloaks. When they arrived in the mountains and forests, this army would blend in with nature. Yes, they didn't want to be discovered, they just wanted to hide in the nine places
under.
The 20 armored vehicles were wrapped in wooden boards and grass and mud. Outsiders could not tell what they were. It was just strange that there were 12 horses pulling in front of each armored vehicle. The steam engine was not started, otherwise it would emit white smoke and make a rumbling sound.
Mechanical sound.
There are 6 sets of large tires installed under each armored vehicle, so it is not difficult for horses to drag them.
Then there were 20 eight-horse carts, and 20 artillery pieces were installed in the sealed iron carriages. The long barrels were exposed. The 88 mm caliber was just an iron pipe to the uninformed person.
Nothing to be afraid of.
There are also 200 eight-horse carts, pulling thousands of artillery shells, coal, water, etc.
Immediately following the new army was the Slavic Army, with as many as 18,000 people, wearing white cloaks, carrying Chasik sabers on their waists, holding spears, and riding tall Budyon horses. They regained their former glory. .
This kind of horse is the dream of the Slavic cavalry. Among the more than 300,000 troops invaded by Emperor Andrei, there were only more than 50,000 Budyonni horses. After the Battle of Chang'an, there were more than 30,000 horses left. Zhang Yi generously provided 18,000 Horses, equipped for the Slavic Army.
This kind of war horse is extremely excellent. It can run 300 kilometers in 20 hours. It has amazing endurance and can adapt to extremely harsh environments.
The Slavic warriors were so grateful to Zhang Yi that they kept the word "sworn brother" in their mouths. Following him, they drank endless wine and ate endless barbecues.
By the way, Zhang Yi has strictly prohibited them from eating raw meat. That habit is too primitive and unhealthy, causing their average life span to be around 40 years old. Now with barbecue, medicine and hygiene knowledge, they can extend their life span by at least 10 to 20 years. .
The final push was made by 20,000 wolf cavalry led by Niu Ben, who also provided logistical support.
Countless four-horse carts were pulling grain, livestock, coal, wine and various supplies, enough to supply the army for two months.
The size of the expeditionary force reached 50,000, mainly due to the addition of the Slavic Legion.
The army is organized as follows:
Commander Zhang Yi.
Princess Xiaoliu serves as the medical officer.
Liu Cheng and his Imperial Guards served as the Chinese army's escort.
The new army led by Xiao Han and the Mopan City Iron Army led by Shi Gandang served as the vanguard.
The Slavic Legion led by Vajim acted as the main force to defeat the enemy.
The wolf cavalry led by Niu Ben was responsible for the rearguard.
There are also more than a hundred lieutenant generals and major generals serving as commanders at all levels.
Chen Yiyi and Fu Xiang accompanied the army on the expedition. They participated in the war as liaison officers of the alliance committee and actually assumed the responsibilities of staff officers.
…
Unknowingly, Zhang Yi's mood gradually improved as he was far away from Chang'an. It was March, the season when all things flourish. He saw that green grass had covered the earth, and the small flowers on the field began to bloom. The birds in the woods were alarmed by the sound of horse hooves. Hovering in the air.
"The flowers are blooming from spring to March, so beautiful." Xiaoliu praised.
"Yes, the peach blossoms and catkins dance with the wind, and the flowers are in full bloom." Zhang Yi nodded and smiled.
The two laughed and looked back. The army stretched for several miles and could not be seen to the end.
"We have the most powerful army in the world. No one can stop us. We will punch and kick the Japanese pirates and make them lie on the ground begging for mercy." Xiaoliu said proudly.
Zhang Yi raised his head and laughed. Men shouldn't say such things casually, as they would appear arrogant and rude, but Xiao Liu could say it, and it sounded particularly comfortable.
He was very grateful to Xiaoliu for accompanying him on his journey of thousands of miles. You must know that for women, this is an extremely dangerous and difficult journey, and they will suffer a lot.
But Xiaoliu will never complain. Zhang Yi knows that she will support him as always and inspire everyone with optimism. She also carries a Chinese dragon drum covered with the skin of a giant snake and driven by her sisters , it can be beaten at any time.
When the dragon drum sounds, there is no doubt that the soldiers will rush to fight bravely.
"Brother Yi, when we pass through Mopan City, can we go home and stay for a day?" Xiaoliu asked. She was still thinking about her home in the castle, which was her second home.
"Okay, the whole army will rest for a day, and then rush to Anton City without stopping." Zhang Yi looked at Liu'er tenderly and said with a smile.
