Accompanied by greetings, Li Jie, who was fully armed, climbed onto the chariot, picked up his binoculars and looked at the teams on the shore in the water. They were all like long dragons, meandering forward.
Different from the chaotic marching postures of other countries, the march in Huaizhong City is also a kind of training.
Not only the march, but also the response system strictly emphasizes discipline.
The harsh laws in the market are nothing compared to military regulations.
"Go to war!"
As soon as the order was given, the military bugle sounded loudly, and the trumpeter's horn suddenly resounded throughout the Huaihe River.
The nobles and merchants from various countries all had stern expressions on their faces. They just looked at the Wu people going out to conquer Chu. They really wanted to attack Chu.
"Do you really want to... attack Chu?"
Swallowing his saliva, in the market on the shore, there was always a high platform where they could see the wolf-like soldiers going out to fight. Seeing Li Jie wearing it himself, this really shocked them.
"Uncle Huai Shui has always been true to his word. If he says to attack Cai, he will attack Cai; if he says to attack Chu, he will naturally attack Chu. What he says must be done, what he says must bear fruit, and what he says must be practiced!"
There were many generals following Li Jie on this expedition, but Sha Zhongha, who had "killed one man in ten steps", was not among them. Everyone in Huaizhong City knew that Shah was in Huainan at the moment.
Accompanying Li Jie were Shang Wuji and Liu Ba, the first patriarch of the "Xia Liu Clan".
Before attacking Chu, a letter of war was issued. Liuba would go to the capital of Ying alone to persuade the Empress Dowager Zhao and the King of Chu to surrender.
Of course, even if you say you are single, there will still be escorts. It is just for publicity, and you are going alone.
"A promise of a thousand gold" Gongziba's sign is quite loud now.
However, the six kingdoms were all dead, and there was nothing to say. Young Master Ba had no feelings for this unlucky hometown. He had gone out to wander around and travel around the country, but it was because he couldn't get a sip of hot water in the country, so he went out.
If you are ugly, your life will be more difficult.
"How majestic and majestic it is!"
"The scale of the military front is unheard of!"
What conspiracy and conspiracy, in the face of such absolute strength, it is all my younger brother.
However, for the residents of Huaizhong City, they have superior capital.
With Yourong, it's that simple.
You must know that many of the soldiers in the army that attacked Chu this time were selected from the residents of Huaizhong City.
Although he is not a crocodile man or a brave man, he is just an expanded righteous man, but he is already quite good.
"Quickly, ride to the middle of the country, and the Wu people will attack Chu!"
"Immediately report to Lord Ming that Huai Shui Bo has already attacked Chu!"
…
The spies from all over the world are not free, and they can't take care of that much now. The matter of Li Jie's attack on Chu must be reported back to the country as soon as possible.
In the past, the time was estimated, but now that the army has set off, the battle between Wu and Chu will only happen in the short term.
Within ten days at most, a war will definitely break out.
The nobles of other countries were also surprised that Li Jie did not have the king's order from Gusu, so how could he dare to start provocations randomly? Who would have thought that when Li Jie took the oath, he directly filled out the letter of war on the blank silk with the king's seal.
It's legal and reasonable, and no one can fault it.
Besides, when King Wu Wei was still alive, he had already said that Li Jie would be allowed to develop freely.
How else would the old turtle Yi Yangjun die?
Due to various changes, Li Jie did not go to Lai State. Now he is still carrying out his mission as a traveler. He went to Lai State to kill the remaining turtle sons of Lord Yiyang. It was also when the old monster was still alive that he approved Li Jie's mission.
One of the things about free play.
There are many people who can testify. Everyone in Gusu City knows it. Old ministers who are not in Gusu City, such as the former Dazai Ziqi, also know it.
It's just that these are all nonsense. At this moment, Taishu Mao is absolutely speechless towards Li Jie.
This kind of hard power, if it doesn't explode, it's still a bit of a thought, and now it's exposed in front of the whole world, it's simply appalling.
Tai Shumao's people were so frightened that a large number of available soldiers emerged after only a brief mobilization by Huai Shui Bo Mansion.
This expedition to the Chu Kingdom was not only about the strength of the troops, but also the emergence of new types of troops. Horse infantry was not absent in the past, but it was rare. This time, there were at least three brigades of horse infantry and three brigades of mule infantry.
There were no clues for a while, but the six brigades showed off their maneuverability outside Huaizhong City, which was still indescribably uncomfortable.
When it comes to riding skills, the soldiers in Huaizhong City really don't have much riding skills, but they are very disciplined and well-equipped, which makes it different.
The lethality of flanking has more than doubled than before. What is even more difficult to adapt to is that it is almost impossible for the princes to form similar units in the short term.
However, in fact, the little mounted infantry in President Li's hands was just for show. After they were far away, the soldiers quickly dismounted and walked, not willing to let the horses suffer.
The physical strength of the horses cannot be wasted on marching.
Marching on the shore mainly relied on two legs. In addition, most of Li Jie's combat-effective troops traveled by boat. As soon as supplies were needed, they were shipped by ship.
Only in places where it is really difficult to travel by boat would you choose carts and wheelbarrows.
Just as President Li judged, the southeast wind before the autumn harvest will blow for a while.
A unicycle with a sail added is not too slow or too strenuous to move in the transitional areas between hills and plains.
It was not without reason that Li Jie had to organize a team of mules and horses, a large caravan, and a wheelbarrow team even though there was Huai River.
Only by allowing these teams to gain experience will they not feel uncomfortable or panic when mobilized again in the future.
The first time is life, the second time is familiarity. When fighting, the whole army is in line with this principle, both inside and outside.
The large army sets out from Huaizhong City. The boat does not go directly from east to west, but there is a waterway from south to north. The bend of this waterway is Xiarui.
After reconstruction, in addition to the fields in Xia Rui, the Huai River embankment is extremely strong. In addition to the conventional large embankment, there are a large number of reed marshes on the periphery, which also prevents the Huai River water that should be rushing here from being washed away easily.
Huai River Embankment.
After the chariot passed Xiarui, the residents of Huaizhong City who saw them off dispersed.
After picking up the telescope and seeing that the nobles and merchants from all over the world were no longer following him, Li Jie shouted: "Here comes someone!"
"yes!"
"Chuangshang Wuji."
"yes!"
Not long after, Shang Wuji changed to a carriage and arrived at Li Jie's side. Then he solemnly said: "My lord, there are three more pavilions, and on the other side is Shaopi."
"Um."
Li Jie nodded, "You don't have to worry about things on the battlefield. Those orphans and widowed mothers from the Chu Kingdom want to attack their hearts first and threaten them with death!"
"yes!"
"Since all the countries in Huaihe River are willing to be servants, they should spend them wisely. When it is time to let them die, don't save."
"Don't worry, my lord, Master Cai has already planned. After the appointment, he will order Cai's three divisions to attack Fangcheng of Chu."
"Whether the Qin people will come or not, we don't have to think about it. Whether they come or not, the result will be the same. Just treat them as if they don't come."
"yes!"
"We must attract all the Chu State Mausoleum troops to the east of Han Dynasty. If necessary, we can abandon the Baiju Mountain Pass to boost the morale of the Chu army. Whether it is to lure the enemy deeper or to show the enemy that they are weak, in short, we must move the Chu State Mausoleum
Division, he was dragged to the Dabie Mountains and stationed in the Huaihe River, a place of communication between the Han Dynasty and Han Dynasty."
"Wuji will not disappoint his master even if he sacrifices his life!"
"So, take care!"
"My lord, take care of yourself too!"
"Sing to the strong wind, the sound should be loud and the Huai water should boil!"
As soon as the order was given, drums and trumpets were heard vibrating, and after a tune was played, someone began to sing military songs.
"The wind is blowing...the clouds are flying!"
"Yun Feiyang..."
"Weijiahai is coming...fighting in all directions!"
"Fighting in all directions..."
"I am a warrior...protecting my hometown!"
"Protect your hometown..."
After the high-pitched tone, there were bursts of loud responses.
March all the way, move forward all the way, sing the strong wind all the way.
On the way from Xiarui to Yingwei, Li Jie changed his clothes and boarded a small boat at a small pier. When all the troops saw the Huaishui Goddess Palace, the huge fleet separated.
A small team went to the south bank.
Surrounding the Huaishui Goddess Palace, the statues of the Twelve Yuan Chen Demon Gods are still shining with golden light, but the already ferocious and ferocious Twelve Yuan Chen Demon Gods are even more powerful when accompanied by the Huaizhong army.
The faithful men and women who were praying for blessings in front of the statues in the Huaishui Goddess Palace were all pale and trembling at this time, and they were lying on the ground, asking only for the goddess's blessing and the devil's forgiveness.
"The envoy from Qin has not arrived at Cai yet?"
In the Palace of the Goddess of Huaishui, Princess Yeyue of Qin State, who also heard the army singing the strong wind, felt a little unhappy at the moment. She stretched out her fingers and carefully looked at the newly prepared nail polish. Her fingers were white and well-groomed, and matched with the dark red nail polish.
, very charming and mysterious.
The goddess of Huaishui was in a bad mood, and her tone was extremely cold.
It was obviously still a scorching summer day, but the prostrate Zuo Quma of the former Qin Kingdom was trembling and dripping with cold sweat.
"Your Highness! The old noble families in the country are afraid of the threat of the Jin State. Now they are stationed in Xianyang and dare not take any action."
"Oh? I don't dare to take any action..."
Ying Ying smiled and picked up the ceramic cup filled with herbal tea. Just when she was about to bring it to her mouth, she suddenly hit the cup directly on Zi Che Baihui's head.
"waste--"
Ying Ying suddenly stood up, stretched out her hand, and a slave immediately handed a whip into her hand.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
She was whipped three times, and Ying Ying's eyes were fierce and cold: "Zi Che's white buttocks! What do you think you are! You are a dog! A dog! It's not me who needs Zi Che, it's Zi Che who is begging on her knees.
Yes, I took you in!"
"Yes! What His Highness said is true! It is Mr. Che who is not doing things well, but it is my servant who has a heavy responsibility to entrust me!"
Even though Zi Chebai's buttocks were spanked so painfully, he still gritted his teeth and persisted, sweating on his forehead, and solemnly admitted his mistake after being spanked.
"What do you mean, father-in-law?!"
"Your Majesty... Qin Jun is still hesitant."
"Ride to Luoyi, and then I don't care what method you use, deliver the news and return to Qin as soon as possible. If the father-in-law has not made up his mind yet, prompt the father-in-law to make up his mind. If the father-in-law is timid, do everything possible to embolden the father-in-law!"
"
After saying that, Ying Ying never looked at Zi Che's white buttocks, who was lying on the ground and did not dare to move. "If my father-in-law is old and infirm, he should be allowed to enjoy his old age in peace. Why bother with state affairs anymore."
"yes!"
Lying on the ground with a shocked look on his face, Zi Chebai's body trembled obviously. He didn't know whether it was because of severe pain or fear, but he did not dare to refuse the order of the Huaishui Goddess, and he could not refuse.
