Aspirations for Nation and Beauty Chapter 1: Jin Ge’s first act


"There is news that Nan'an people really couldn't bear the pressure from the north and mobilized, but it doesn't seem to be as good as we imagined." The man who got into the tent was Chang Hechun, his chief of staff. You had always hoped that Chang Hechun could be promoted to deputy army commander, but he knew it might be difficult. It wasn't that His Majesty the Emperor didn't trust him, but according to the practice handed down in Xijiang, if he wanted to be promoted, he usually had to change positions. Although it is not absolute, for the Eighth Army, which is almost created by itself, this practice seems to be necessary to stick to.

"Oh? Tell me about the situation." Cheng Dayou put away his scattered thoughts and focused on the current military affairs.

"Because of geographical reasons, the Nan'an people in the Binhai area also deployed 50,000 heavy troops to garrison, and they can also get sea reinforcements from Sikkim at any time. It should be said that it is not easy to break through, but the deployment of the Nan'an people changed five days ago. 20,000 people have been transferred to the north. According to our judgment, it should be the progress made by the Fourth Army in Suoketu that made the Nan'an people nervous. Because most of the mountains in the north are north-south, the Fourth Army can easily Entering from the north, they had to strengthen the defense in the north, and the army of Western Samoa seemed not ready yet, so the Nan'an people had to rely on their own strength for a while, which also created opportunities for us. "Chang Hechun's oily face was reddened by the scorching sun in the peninsula, and he was sweating, but his words were still full of energy.

"Well, so they still have 30,000 people on the defense line in the Binhai area? Are these 30,000 mercenaries or their city defense army?" Cheng Dayou attached great importance to the affiliation of the troops stationed in Binhai.

"It's the city defense army, but the army commander, 30,000 people is not a small number, especially the climate and terrain here are quite favorable conditions for them. If we choose to attack from the coastal area, maybe fighting is not a problem , the problem is whether the soldiers can adapt to the climate there. Now the soldiers are a bit overwhelmed. I have arranged for military medical officers to strictly prevent the outbreak of the epidemic, but this climate will become more troublesome as time goes on. We have to find a way to solve this problem .”

"There is no way to cure this problem, and climate adaptation cannot be achieved in a day or two. We can only defeat the people of Nan'an in the shortest possible time. That is the best way to solve this problem." Cheng Dayou shook Shaking his head, most of the soldiers of his Eighth Legion came from the north, and the opponent's climate was not very suitable for him, but Cheng Dayou knew that if he wanted to win this battle, he had to overcome this problem. Fortunately, the logistics department had already prepared before coming to the peninsula. Quite full of various medicines.

So far, no outbreak of the epidemic has been found, but as Chang Hechun said, as the temperature continues to rise, the probability of an outbreak of the epidemic will increase.

"What does the legion commander mean?" Chang Hechun had already heard something. Looking at the stern and firm eyes in the other party's eyes, he knew that his boss's opinion had already been confirmed.

"We don't have time to wait any longer. The Fourth Army has created an opportunity for us. If we can't grasp it, once the Western Samoa army catches up, our situation will be even more difficult. And now the Nan'an people probably I didn't expect that we would choose to attack them, which is the easiest place to get reinforcements from the Sikkim people. So we have some opportunities in this regard, and we will leave it to you, Binhai County, and I will lead two divisions to go there. Let's see what the arrogant Nan'an people have to dare to fight against the imperial army." Cheng Dayou waved his hand to stop the chief of staff who was about to talk, and said flatly that this is what he always wanted to do in person, and he didn't want to give up this opportunity other people.

The coastal area of ​​Nan'an City-State can be said to be the most dangerous area in Nan'an City-State. The swamps are criss-crossed, and even those who are familiar with the terrain dare not cross them easily, because almost every year the heavy rain in the rainy season in this area will change the area of ​​​​these swamps. Maybe the passage that worked last year will become a deadly trap this year. Since no one has walked through it for a long time, the leaves, dead branches and dead animals in many areas have accumulated over the years and gradually formed a thick layer of mulch. Repeatedly soaked in rainwater, eventually forming a deadly miasma, which is also the main reason why coastal areas are daunting.

Cheng Dayou already understood the difficulty of this route before sending troops. Although the Ministry of Culture, Education and Health and the Logistics Department of the Privy Council have already developed targeted drugs to prevent and treat miasma under the arrangement of Wufeng, but this area The ever-changing swamp area is still a huge obstacle, but compared to the tough battle at Kuruk Fortress, Cheng Dayou still feels that this route is more worth taking risks. After all, this is a natural obstacle, as long as he can find a way to overcome it In a certain area, there is only 30,000 Nan'an Defense Army's jackknife defense line in front of it. Although the Sikkim people have stepped up their assistance to Nan'an City-State, they are obviously full of confidence in this natural defense line, and they will send more reinforcements to the north. The Fourth Army put too much pressure on them, making them ignore that there may be even greater murderous intentions hidden here.

Cheng Dayou's method is actually very simple. He led the first division as the main force of this battle, sneaked into Nan'an territory from East Samoa, and led by a guide along the coast not far away during the day. Walking through the dense forest, if you encounter a swampy area that you can’t get around, you simply stop there. When it gets dark, you quietly walk out of the dense forest and quickly pass along the beach. However, once the enemy's reconnaissance ships discover this situation, there is only one dead end waiting for Cheng Dayou's division, not even a retreat.

In order to ensure the success of his plan, Cheng Dayou had to turn to the Nanyang Navy, which had not yet formed an army. Important steps are also extremely important for the future development of the navy. Even though he knows that his navy can't stand the toss, he can only bite the bullet and steer the battle himself to attract the attention of the Sikkim and Nan'an navy.

In order to ensure the success of the attracting plan, Lei Cangpu put out all the naval power in his hands, and also recruited a large number of civilian ships to coordinate with the navy, posing a posture of being ready to land and attack the mainland of Sikkim at any time. The intelligence department also consciously spread the news in Sikkim that the Tang Dynasty would send a landing force to land on Sikkim Island. For the defense of the sea area, the Nan'an city-state navy also focused its main attention on the Sikkim Strait area to prevent the Datang Navy from attacking from the Sikkim Strait.

Cheng Dayou experienced the pain of marching in the southern region for the first time. The heat is not an insurmountable problem, but the stuffy smell is indeed unbearable for the soldiers from the north. Fortunately, the water source in this area is not enough. Insufficient, besides drinking a lot of water, sweating a lot, and using this method to excrete the accumulated heat in the body, there is really no other better way to solve this problem.

Mosquito bites also plagued the entire army, especially when marching in this dense forest. After the dense forest area between the peninsula and the peninsula, Xijiang has begun to study and prepare for marching in the tropics in preparation for the imperial army's operations in the southern tropics. It has also achieved quite obvious results. The preparation of the Ministry of Culture, Education and Health They developed a variety of insect repellants, and developed breathable insect repellent clothing suitable for marching in tropical dense forests. This kind of clothing made of special wood is especially suitable for marching in tropical areas. It can effectively prevent snakes and insects from attacking, and it is quite breathable. But the actual situation is ever-changing, and there are still many soldiers suffering from malaria. The bark of cinchona tree is the only special medicine, which is necessary for almost everyone, but the side effects are also obvious~IndoMTL.com~The soldiers chewed this Planting bark caused vomiting, loss of appetite, and greatly reduced physical strength. Many soldiers had to stay and withdraw from the march.

Marching into the beach area at night has become a supreme enjoyment. Almost every soldier, including Cheng Dayou, is longing for the night to fall. The patrols in this area are regular, they only have one patrol at night, and most of them are in the early morning hours, so whenever it gets dark, the officers and soldiers of the First Division will rush out of the dense forest area, and use the night to run wildly on the beach, as if escaping. The prisoners in the cage seemed to be liberated, and even Cheng Dayou felt that he had never felt such an enjoyment in marching at night.

The three-day march made the Tang army wander as if on the edge of heaven and hell. Cheng Dayou led the First Division of the Eighth Army Corps to go out at night and day, marching less than twenty miles a day during the day, but able to run ten miles at night. It’s just that this kind of life is really unbearable. The hot and humid climate has caused many soldiers to be covered with eczema and skin diseases. The festering skin is mixed with the clothes, and a large piece of it will be peeled off when it is pulled, and it will rot when it is scratched. It's a big piece, it's really frightening to see. Fortunately, this kind of day didn't last long, otherwise Cheng Dayou really didn't know how to deal with the 30,000 Nan'an City Defense Army. His only advantage was probably the opportunity to make a surprise attack. It's not that they don't know the emergency response capabilities of the Nan'an City Defense Army. Whether they can fight with one blow will determine the outcome of this surprise attack.
