Chapter 311 Very sudden

"Shouwei, look, the messenger!" A soldier with good eyes saw a small team appearing in the distance and quickly spoke to remind the commander beside him. His voice only attracted the attention of a few people around him. Recently, the messenger shuttled through various places has seen more frequently than before, and he has not seen anything about himself. Everyone is a little numb.

A certain battalion of Tieyunqi is conducting another marching exercise in recent months. Three thousand soldiers lined up on the road and advanced slowly. Because they were conducting marching exercises in Yunzhou and in the southern area of ​​farmland, the scouts' actions were greatly restricted. It was normal for them to not find a team of four men in advance. The battalion deputy hurriedly brought people to meet them and said loudly: "This is the Fourth Battalion of Tieyunqi. Should I look for us or pass by?"

"Is it Deputy Zhang Ying?" The two sides met on the side of the road and sat down and started talking. "Please indicate your identity."

Zhang Zhiwen quickly took out the leopard-headed emblem stamped from pure copper that indicated his identity, and lit it. "It's me."

"Deputy Zhang Ying, the 27th Team of the Third Military Order Section of the Command of the Yunzhou Jingliufu Command, reported to you. This is a military order document. I have not encountered any enemy troubles along the way. The military order documents are complete in three copies. Please sign for it." The other three messengers took out a kraft envelope sealed with paint from the bags they were straddled, handed it to the talked messenger, and then handed it to Zhang Zhiwen together. They also handed it to Zhang Zhiwen a writing board with a stack of forms. Zhang Zhiwen took it over and saw that it was amazing. It was the heads of the Yunzhou army and the Farms and Ranches, but they were all adjutants... and the chief officers of all these troops were convened by this military meeting, and the Fourth Iron Cavalry Battalion where Zhang Zhiwen was located was no exception.

Zhang Zhiwen pulled out the small copper seal stuck inside from behind the leopard-headed emblem, and solemnly printed his name on the form. "Thank you all. I will return the order to the commander at the next eagle station."

"Deputy Zhang Ying, we have to continue to pass the order, so let's go." The messengers saluted to Deputy Zhang Ying, and then rode their horses away.

In Yunzhou, since everyone understands that the military situation is ever-changing, although Yunzhou already has a fairly complete and quick transmission system, it still cannot keep up with the changes in the battlefield. The transmission of military orders and the execution of military orders are separated. The chief officer does not open and reply to this direct military order for the troops in daily training, but instead issues his own reply orders within two hours, indicating that he will execute it, but waits for further orders or explanations, but it is temporarily difficult to comply with various difficulties, etc. Since the next eagle station is more than ten miles away, Zhang Zhiwen's choice is undoubtedly the fastest way to return orders. Only after entering the battle will the chief officer who receives the orders need to dismantle the orders in person and reply.

Since three military order documents were complete and the battalion was in a meeting, he and several team leaders were the ones in the entire battalion. He handed the other two documents to the people around him and took them apart.

"Brother Zhang, what's going on?" Everyone was confused when they glanced at the very simple order. The order document asked them to rush to a certain place within a limited time, receive supplies, and meet with the camp, waiting for further orders. Thinking of the densely packed orders of the order registration form, which was full of such people, it was obvious that something had happened.

Regarding Yunzhou planning a big move, Zhang Zhiwu, the elder brother of Zhang Zhiwen, although he was confidential and did not tell him in detail, he still missed some words to him, just to make him prepare at this time. When Zhang Zhiwen thought about this, he suddenly became enlightened. What the things his brother said before were originally said was this. Is it finally going to start?

"Hehe, we are going to attack." Zhang Zhiwen yelled the order: "The entire army will be suspended, rest on site for one quarter of an hour. Aman, go to the Eagle Station to send a message, the Fourth Battalion of Tieyunqi obeys the order, and implement it immediately... Immediately call the team leader and above to gather, hurry!"

A quarter of the hour passed quickly. After Zhang Zhiwen explained according to his own understanding, he learned that Yunzhou was likely to launch a major external offensive. Judging from the direction of his marching, he pointed to Zijing Pass and was likely to attack Xiling. Although the time given in the military order documents was very tight, Tieyun Cavalry, as an elite cavalry with a profound rural tradition, was fully confident of arriving in advance.

After the Hebasin was instructing the location, everyone learned that this time, Yunzhou had used thirty of the fifty battalions, and the full of the tribes of the Benlang Origin, which would inevitably exceed the 25,000 people, as well as the heavy equipment battalion supported by the Tanjia Army, a total of more than 120,000 regular combat troops were used. The two logistics battalions that Suo Zheng had already organized, one of which had been halfway through the reorganization process and was of very good level, as well as two auxiliary battalions stuffed over the Yunzhou Rongjun Ranch Farm System, as well as the temporarily vacant transportation teams of the Bureau of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, and the logistics team of more than 30,000 people organized by the civilians and husbands will provide supplies to the entire army with a super luxurious lineup.

When the Fourth Iron Cavalry Battalion arrived at the assembly position, they had already learned that Xu Yao, deputy commander of Jingyun Cavalry, had personally led the troops of two battalions through Zijing Pass. With the assistance of the garrison battalion that was originally stationed in Zijing Pass, conquered the two camps on the Xiling side for defense of Zijing Pass, and completely controlled the entire Zijing Valley passage in their own hands. Further north, the front line of the feldstone Pass was Dai Shijin, the commander of Yunzhou infantry, personally led the main infantry force to advance slowly, and at least one battalion had entered Xiling...

The military orders received by the Fourth Battalion are more detailed and rigorous. Not only does it have detailed supply plans along the way, but the time is also stuck very hard. The arrival time requirements usually range from no earlier than or later than or after. Of course, everyone has done this kind of training and knows that this is for the smooth advancement in the early stage, so that the problem of their own family blocking their own people on the road. Now the army in Yunzhou is full of great families, especially the infantry, which has luxurious equipment, but the requirements for logistics and roads have also increased. Although no one is a mechanized army now and does not rely entirely on the road, in this process of advancement, even a little impact on efficiency may determine the victory or defeat in the middle and late stages.

If we want to describe Yunzhou now, the most appropriate metaphor may be that it is an arrogant and domineering sports car that takes from stationary to 100 kilometers per hour. The entire Yunzhou runs with all its might, which is really not a cover. Whenever the soldiers arrive at a certain town or even a village or villa according to the scheduled schedule, they basically have ready-made food, drinking water, accommodation, and even specialized veterinarians to final diagnoses for horses that may have problems. Although all the attacking troops came from all over the place, some were originally traveling lightly according to the order, and some even retreated from the defense line bordering Beiliao, when they entered Xiling from Zijing Pass and Changshi Pass in sequence according to the battalion, they were all well prepared and well-supplyed.

This rigor and efficiency made Jiang Fangzhou, the new assistant minister of the Ministry of War of Dongping, who came to observe the battle process, not knowing how to evaluate it. In fact, even the Yunzhou military itself did not expect that it would be able to execute so smoothly. The military progress was secondly. More than 30 battalions were arranged one after another in such a short time, which was really beyond the expectations of the Zhenbei Military Office. It even fought several times a few days ago to a complete victory battle without one person escaped. Since the Zhenbei Military Office is also vast and sparsely populated, Jiang Xujing is a person who likes to fight decisive battles and raids. He is accustomed to garrisoning a small number of troops everywhere and then gathers the main hedgehogs together to act. The real decisive battle is far from being launched, and it doesn't make much sense to occupy how much territory it occupies now.

What really made everyone praise is the current entire logistics system. The materials piled up in warehouses in various places have formed two Yunzhou supply lines that extend to Zijing Pass and Fengshi Pass in just ten days. All kinds of items are delivered in a steady stream, and they are sent out in a very short time, usually no more than twelve hours. This efficiency is somewhat incredible to Ye Tao, not to mention the people in this time and space. In Xiling, under the protection of two auxiliary barracks, the three baggage battalions are transporting various materials in an orderly manner, giving back to the material stock of each battalion, establishing front-line supply points, and renovating the cargo warehouses, ferries, and bridges... Everyone's praise makes these soldiers who think that the baggage has never been valued and have not gained much military merits work harder.

If there is anything that makes everyone even more confused, it may be the two auxiliary barracks stuffed into the Farm System of the Vanguard. Although they are auxiliary barracks and are responsible for protecting the supply line, these two auxiliary barracks are all veterans who have been in service for more than three years and are not over 35 years old within two years of retirement. If you want to talk about combat effectiveness and combat experience, they are very powerful. It’s just that they have not kept up with the adjustment and reorganization of Yunzhou’s military strength in recent years.

The training content cannot keep up? It doesn't matter. In the Rongjun Farm Ranch, these veterans who fully meet the requirements have always been fully qualified or semi-finalized in training various courses. Most of the contents are followed by the content of the main forces of Yunzhou, especially the content of the two main combat cavalry, Tieyunqi and Jingyunqi. Equipment? The Rongjun Farm Ranch has never been short of money, and each farm ranch selected these people for fear of losing face. Whether it was the sergeant themselves or the farm ranch, they all equipped them vigorously. There was even a complete squadron selected by a farm. One hundred and seven people used the same colored thick-backed mountain knife. After checking the product batch number, Ye Tao roughly knew that it should have been specially made by the Ye Family Workshop in Yicheng, specially supplied to the Chunnan Imperial Army. I don't know that it was actually in the farm system.

Such people with great hands and eyes can make all this good thing. Apart from this very special product, the two auxiliary barracks may also be the concentrated display of the most advanced armor. In Yunzhou, various designs and styles of armor have been updated from generation to generation. According to Ye Tao, it is to adapt to market needs, the latest research results on protection and ergonomics, and the latest research results of metal smelting, manufacturing technology, etc. are produced every month in Yunzhou. The Command and Dongping Military Department have filed, but they have never considered replacing the armor in the army. The cost-effectiveness of the army's armor is certainly a factor, and considering the unified standard is also an important reason. You can't change it if you have a better one, then the army will not be able to prepare.
