Chapter 91: Military Training

There were eight boats on the way out and fifteen boats on the way back.

Farewell to Xue Yuanshan at the wharf, Ma Cheng and Yu Ming took the land and water troops on the return fleet.

Prince Fengzhou's fleet originally consisted of thirteen ships.

Ma Cheng saw that he had several fast ships, so he asked him to leave them with Xue Yuanshan, so that Jiayu and Jiangzhou would have a tool for rapid communication.

After giving instructions to Xue Yuanshan and asking him to write a letter to Xue Jing, the fleet set off.

When passing by Jiangxia, His Royal Highness turned pale.

Jiangxia is much worse than his Fengyang counterpart.

At least there is no flooding in Fengyang, so we still have a foothold.

"Your Highness, there is no need to be sad, we will soon arrive in Jiangzhou."

"There is peace in Jiangzhou, and the prince of Jiangzhou will definitely take us in."

The eunuch Xiao Fugui persuaded His Royal Highness.

The eldest son of Fengzhou was named Song Chengwang, and he was regarded as Song Yang's nephew.

Growing up in a royal palace, I was pampered and at a young age, I really didn’t have any ideas.

"Do you think Uncle Wang from Jiangzhou is very vicious?"

"What if he doesn't care about me...do we have somewhere else to go?"

The prince looked at Xiao Fugui worriedly and asked.

Xiao Fugui was busy and felt comforted again.

Although they are relatives, the prince has never met Song Yang.

Even his father only came to attend the ceremony once when Song Yang passed away his feudal status.

The Daqian feudal king and the prince could not leave their fiefdom, and they were in the same Taoist mansion, so it was not easy for them to participate in the feudal ceremony.

If it weren't for Song Yang's special status and it was a prince who became a vassal, the surrounding vassal princes would not risk being punished by the emperor to attend his inauguration ceremony.

After a day's sailing, we arrived at Ezhou County.

Going downstream is much faster.

Stop the boat in Ezhou County and rest for the night.

The next day, Ma Cheng left another clipper ship for Ezhou County.

When we arrived at Huangshi, we added another canal boat.

In the past two days, several more stranded ships were discovered in Huangshi.

They were all dragged into the water, so they could be repaired and repaired.

Ma Cheng did not touch the other ships, leaving Huangshi to take care of himself.

The fleet then set off again.

After falling into the mouth of Fushui River, we met the clipper sent by Wang Ran to Jiangzhou to report the news.

When I stopped to ask, I found out that Tongshan had been completely acquired yesterday.

And there is news from Puqi, Xianning and Tongcheng this morning.

Under Xue Jing's mediation, the two counties of Puqi and Tongcheng were basically determined to join Song Yang.

Xianning has completely returned, and the people have fled.

At this point, the entire territory of Ezhou and all existing administrative units were considered to be under Song Yang's control.

This also shows how influential the Xue family is in Ezhou.

Although Daqian was a country unified by war, the aristocratic families were greatly affected by the war.

Coupled with the natural disasters, it was even more devastating.

However, the family relationship network is still there, especially in the ancient land of Ezhou, where the family relationships are deeply intertwined.

However, this also provided convenient conditions for Song Yang to conquer Ezhou.

The so-called peeling off the cocoon, picking out the threads and straightening out Ezhou.

Walk for another half day.

The fleet finally returned to Jiangzhou City in the afternoon.



"The Crown Prince of Fengzhou?"

Just after noon, Song Yang received a message from the clipper sent by Ma Cheng.

After receiving the letter, Song Yang nodded with great satisfaction.

More than six hundred people are not too many, but a dozen ships and more than a hundred guards officers and soldiers are very valuable resources.

Besides, isn’t this prince still his nephew?

Song Yang accepted this great nephew!

"Go ahead, all the Renaissance Army and Minzhuang teams will be ready."

"Let's go to the dock in the afternoon to pick up my great nephew, and let him see the military appearance of our Jiangzhou!"

Song Yang ordered to go down, and Gongsun Qi immediately went to arrange the team.

Soon, five hundred Renaissance troops and one thousand civilians gathered.

Song Yang looked around and found that it would take about an hour for the fleet to return.

However, the team had already been assembled, and Song Yang simply asked Wang Dabiao to take the team to the naval academy at the dock for a training session.

It's time to take a look at the training results of the Fuxing Army, Navy and People's Liberation Army during this period.

Soon, the staff was arranged.

The team of 1,600 people was divided into three teams and formed a formation at the Marine Corps Ground.

A thousand people are a strong people's team.

The 500-strong team is the Renaissance Army.

The one hundred people are the sailors.

"Report to your lord! All the soldiers are in place!" Wang Dabiao came to report.

Song Yang stood on the podium and waved his hand: "Start!"

"Got the order!"

Wang Dabiao clasped his fist at Song Yang and turned back to the queue.

"Your Majesty has given an order, the military training begins!"

"Got the order!"

"Got the order!"

"Got the order!"

All the soldiers shouted in unison.

Let’s not talk about how well we practiced, but in terms of momentum, we really can’t lose anything.

"Dong dong dong!"

The flag was raised, the drums beat loudly, and the military training officially began.

The first wave started with five hundred soldiers of the Renaissance Army.

As the commander-in-chief, Wang Dabiao issued various instructions through the command flag.

"go ahead!"

As the command flag pointed, the military formation slowly moved forward.

In the front row are soldiers with swords and shields, in the middle are bamboo spears and spears, and in the back are archers holding down the formation.

"Kill! Kill!"

The sword and shield soldiers raised their shields, the spear soldiers thrust, and the archers drew their bows.

This orthodox formation can cope with most battlefield situations.

The sword and shield soldier holds his large shield high to defend against the enemy's first round of arrows. He also holds the steel knife in his hand to prevent sudden attacks from enemies.

Spearmen can kill enemies three meters away by thrusting their spears. If the enemy has cavalry, they can punch the tail of their spears into the ground. This way, the cavalry can withstand the impact of the troops.

The archers in the back row use projectile arrows to shoot far, and their main function is to suppress the enemy's formation.

Finally, there are small teams of crossbowmen on both wings. Each of them carries five crossbow arrows, and they can be loaded and fired quickly.

After the fight, he put away the crossbow and took off the shield and knife on his back to defend himself against attacks from both sides.

After the team moved forward fifty steps, Wang Dabiao's flag turned.

"Change!"

Following the command of the order flag, the soldiers will begin an orderly transformation and revitalization.

The archers, sword and shield soldiers were in the front, and the spear soldiers were in the back row.

"Kill! Kill!"

The archer drew his bow again, and after three times, the sword and shield soldiers raised their swords and charged forward.

Song Yang also understood clearly that this was a military formation battle and was adjusted to a pursuit battle.

After another fifty steps, the formation changed again.

As the formation changed, the soldiers also made various offensive and defensive actions according to their position changes.

Although it is not neat and uniform, it looks stylish from a distance.

When Song Yang was conducting military training, a fleet of ships came from the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

Song Yang stood on the high platform and saw the fleet from a distance.

He knew that Ma Cheng had returned with the Fengzhou Crown Prince.

However, he did not stop the military training.

After all, this is the first time for me to have this kind of training opportunity.

And how could you miss such a good opportunity to show off?

Ever since, the Fengzhou Crown Prince heard shouts of death coming from afar in the cabin.

For a moment, he thought there was a bandit, so he hurriedly asked Xiao Fugui to prepare a fast boat for him to escape.

"Your Highness, don't panic! The capital of Jiangzhou has arrived!"

"The prince is training at the school grounds on the shore!"

Yu Ming walked into the cabin with a smile and said to the prince.

"Practice...train troops? Uncle Wang actually trains troops himself?"

The prince looked in disbelief.

He has never been to a military camp in his life. His father's education from an early age was that he would not develop as a soldier, so that he would have less to do with big soldiers.

If the current situation had not forced him, he would not have mixed up with the guards.

Now that I heard that Uncle Wang, Song Yang, was training troops in person, I was quite curious for a while.

"Um...can I go and see Uncle Wang training?"

Of course Yu Ming knew Song Yang's plan. How could such an opportunity to show off be denied to the main audience?

Then he smiled at the prince and said:

"It's okay. The school ground is right on the river. Our boat will arrive at the dock soon."

"You can see the whole school grounds from the boat. If the prince is interested, just look at the bow of the boat."
