I’m The King Chapter 745: : The horns of the drum are sharp and sharp (17)

When it entered May, the atmosphere in Liaoxi City suddenly became tense. Teams of troops stationed in various places began to gather from various places to the county towns. After gathering into a large army, and then They set out with countless supplies and looked at the direction they were heading. All the people in western Liaoning understood that the legendary battle of conquering Langya by the Eastern Conqueror Army seemed to be about to begin.

Since Ye Zhong came to Liaoxi County and started training the army, this rumor has spread like wildfire. Where is Langya? That is Ye's fief, where are Ye's people now? One is the wife of Gao Yuan, governor of Zhengdong Mansion, and the other is brother-in-law, and this Ye Zhong was the No. 1 general under Ye's command at the time. His coming to Liaoxi itself represents a clear thing.

Liaoxi people think that Langya should belong to Zhengdong Mansion.

＝Pig＝Pig＝Island＝Novel＝www＝zhua＝; With the strong rise of Jishi City in the past few years, the status of Liaoxi City has been declining year by year, but this does not hinder the pride of Liaoxi people at all, because Gao Yuan is People from western Liaoning, with the full implementation of the policy of conquering the eastern government in western Liaoning, under the rule of Zhang Shouyue, it was difficult to raise tens of thousands of soldiers in western Liaoning, and the rich are now rich, especially the city of western Liaoning. An important channel connecting Zhengdong Mansion with other cities in Yan State.

There are too many people, so there are naturally all kinds of birds. Even if the Overwatch Council under the leadership of Cao Tianci will come to clean it up soon, there will always be fish that slip through the net and survive.

Xu Yanmao is one of them. It has been two full years since he came to Liaoxi City. Two years of fear and trembling made this young official of Yan Lingwei, who was once high-spirited, look much older than his actual age. Not yet forty, but looks like a fifty-year-old man.

He used to have a bright future, but because of the task of escorting Ye Tiannan and his wife from Langya to Jicheng, there was a big leak, not only let the young one escape. The entire Yanling Guards led by him who were responsible for the **** were all let go, which is completely unforgivable for those who work as secret agents. What's more, Ye Tiannan and his wife were both killed in the carriage in the end. Before the palace.

Xu Yanmao's future was naturally dark from then on. First, he was driven directly from the promising headquarters officials to the school leader of any district in Langya, and then thrown to Liaoxi City as a scout by the commander of Langya County.

Liaoxi City is almost the **** of all spies, because this is Gao Yuan's hometown, and now it is one of the most important cities under Gao Yuan's control. . It is often seen that people from various countries are sitting on the quilt and slipping back with all their hair tied up.

Xu Yanmao is still a capable guy after all. He has been in Liaoxi for two years. Every time he was cleaned, he escaped safely, because his identity is really impossible to find out. He played the role of a refugee. After arriving in Liaoxi City. He also worked as a coolie Juésè. After the first two or three months of fear, he managed to turn himself into a real coolie, carrying a pole every day. With a sweat towel on his shoulders, he gathered like many homeless coolies, waiting for business to come.

There are many merchants in Liaoxi City, and the volume of goods coming in and out is very large. This also gave them a huge market for these coolies. They lived in a Datong shop that cost five cents a penny, and they ate pickled vegetables, steamed buns and tofu soup. An occasional meal of meat can be regarded as an improvement in life. Commander Xu, who was handsome and unrestrained back then, is now a coolie with big waist and round arms, hair growing on his face, and black stripes that can be rubbed out when he rubs his body.

No one can recognize him anymore. After arriving in the west of Liaoning, he cut off the upper and lower families designated by his superiors to contact him, and completely became a lonely ghost.

He should be the person in charge of Yan Lingwei in Liaoxi City, but his subordinates can't find him at all, and his boss in Langya can't contact him anymore, he completely drowned himself.

This somewhat extreme cover strategy proved to be completely correct in the later facts. He saw with his own eyes that those who should be his subordinates were arrested by the Overwatch Council one by one.

They know that there is such a person as themselves, but they have no way of knowing where they are, and the Overwatch Council can't find anything.

Xu Yanmao and another coolie lifted a heavy box onto the carriage, then leaned on the box, pulled off the sweat towel from his shoulders, and wiped the sweat off his face. These days, their business is very good, because a large amount of military equipment was transported out of the city and transferred to the army stationed outside the city, and then these troops took these supplies and started to set off in teams. In the past few days, Xu Yanmao has personally seen more than a dozen teams driving away from the county town.

About 20,000 troops, this is almost all the strength of the Eastern Army in Liaoxi County. In other words, Ye Zhong dispatched almost the entire Southern Army under his command.

In the two years in western Liaoning, Xu Yanmao had a clear understanding of the military system of the Eastern Conqueror Army, and also witnessed the training, formation, and formation of the Eastern Conqueror Army for several years. The reason why Ye Zhong only recruited 20,000 people is because It's not because he can't recruit people, but because the rules for recruiting soldiers from the Eastern Army have become more and more strict. In the past two years, the soldiers they recruited must be from good families who have settled in Liaoxi City for more than a few years, and must have In other words, a guarantor, a refugee of unknown origin like him, is not eligible to be recruited into the team if he does not set up a family in western Liaoning.

Observing the training of the Zhengdong Army at close range also made him feel shocked again and again. The training of the Zhengdong Army is not a secret, including the current Yan State Standing Army, which is also adopting lofty training methods , but from Xu Yanmao's point of view, they may be similar in appearance but not in spirit.

The Eastern Conqueror Army seems to have a centripetal force that is difficult for the Yan Army to possess. With the same training method and the same cruel training, the combat effectiveness of the Eastern Conqueror Army seems to be much stronger.

Xu Yanmao once secretly spied on a confrontation exercise of the Southern Group Army. It was hard for him to imagine that there were dozens of casualties in a confrontation exercise. Among the Yan army, the leading general must be held accountable. Responsibility, but in the Eastern Expedition Army, it seems to have become a habit. After the wounded were treated, they either returned to the army or retired, and those who died during training were actually sent to the Hall of Heroes by them, and died in battle. Soldiers on the battlefield enjoy the same treatment.

A 20,000-strong conquest of the East requires at least twice as many Yan troops. Only then can we compete with them on the battlefield, this is Xu Yanmao's evaluation of the two sides as a whole.

The 20,000 Southern Group Army, and countless supplies, food and grass, are also continuously following up. The war is definitely about to start. These days, Xu Yanmao feels that the hard work of the past two years has finally been in vain. Master the number of the opponent's army. Now he also knows the route of departure, the preparation of the logistics, and the mobilization of the entire Liaoxi County.

It's time to leave, the battle is about to start, and returning with this information is enough to explain to the boss.

Xu Yanmao hated Ye Tiannan and Ye Shi, so he also hated Gao Yuan. I hated Zhengdong Mansion and Zhengdong Army, if it wasn't for them, how could I have fallen to such a point. Thinking of his family members who were still suffering in the capital, he trembled with hatred all over his body. He had no contact with his family members or his superiors for two years. I'm afraid they all thought they were dead, right?

Go back to Langya County with this information. General Hu Yanchao is a well-known general of Dayan, with tens of thousands of troops under his command. What's more, the tens of thousands of elites who withdrew from Donghu back then were heroes who had fought against tens of thousands of Donghu soldiers in Liaoxi City. The rebels were defeated one by one. Only by completely defeating these **** can he relieve his hatred.

"Old Xu, what do you want? Take the money, here, this is your share." The coolie came over and threw a few scattered silver coins to Xu Yanmao, "If you want to talk, let's give these Soldiers earn money by working, they give a lot, and they don’t bargain, which is much better than those cunning merchants.”

Xu Yanmao woke up with a shock, "Yes, yes, it's a pity that there are not many good things like this!"

"Who said that when I went to collect the money just now, the soldier in charge here said that more supplies will be delivered in the future, ah, I don't have to worry about work this year!" The coolie head lowered his voice and said.

"Will there be more supplies coming here?" Xu Yanmao was taken aback.

The coolie leader lowered his voice, "Yeah, I'm happy to hear that, I wanted to ask a few more questions, but the soldier got impatient and kicked me out. I listened quietly outside, and heard them discussing inside, saying that they still need to transfer people from Panshan, or that they need more supplies, food and grass. I wanted to listen for a while, but a soldier came outside, so I asked Slip away quickly, if this annoys them, maybe this job won't be done for us."

Xu Yanmao's heart tightened, Panshan, where is the control area of ​​the Eastern Army of Zhengdong Army? Could it be that they want to transfer the cavalry under He Lanxiong from Panshan? It was really placed in the direction of Langya.

It's very Kěnéng. The richness of Langya is in the entire Dayan, and it is also a good place second only to Tianhe. Moreover, because of the special relationship between Langya and Gao Yuan, it is also very good for Gao Yuan to point the attack in this direction. normal.

"Old Xu, let's go, let's all join together today, let's go to have a good drink ~IndoMTL.com~ How about it?" The coolie patted his shoulder and said with a big smile.

"Sure!" Xu Yanmao nodded repeatedly.

"Let's go, let's go, it's going to be dark, and if it's late, we won't be able to enter the city." The coolie chief greeted everyone and walked to the gate of Liaoxi City in the distance.

Xu Yanmao followed silently at the end of the team.

Liaoxi City originally had no curfew, and the gates of the city were closed day and night like Jishi City, but since the beginning of this month, a curfew has been imposed, and the gates have been closed after dark. The military situation cannot be opened.

"Hey, my stomach hurts!" Seeing that the city gate was getting closer and closer, Xu Yanmao suddenly covered his stomach and yelled, "Boss, I want to take a shit, you go in first, I'll be right there."

The coolie head looked back at him, "Hurry up, when the city gate closes, you kid will have to curl up in the hole of the city gate."

"Hǎode Hǎode, boss, you go first, leave me a seat, I'll be right there." Xu Yanmao lifted his trousers, and ran towards the bushes in the distance. (to be continued...)
