I’m The King Chapter 793: : Sunrise East (18)

Liaoningwei's geographical location is very important. After getting out of Panshan, attack Helin and the main road of Yulin. When this city was in the hands of Donghu people, Donghu people also attached great importance to it. This city has been continuously expanding. During the reinforcement and reinforcement, the defense of 5,000 people is really stretched. Meng Chong doesn't even have a reserve team in his hands. He needs to stay here for at least ten days. The Panshan garrison is five days away from here. Of course, this has to be The whole army marched forward lightly. Considering the time it would take for the messengers to arrive at Panshan, it would take about eight days for them to arrive here, and it would take even longer for Yan Haibo's division, who was resting at the Niulanshan camp, to arrive. , not for more than half a month, don't even think about it

In other words, without a reserve team, Meng Chong will have to deal with the attacks of tens of thousands of Donghu people independently for about ten days

Besides the Liaoning Guards, corpses were piled one upon another. Almost all of them were soldiers of the Agu clan who were forced to attack the city. There was almost no power to fight back. Only a very small number of people rushed under the city wall, climbed up the ladder, and climbed up to the top of the city with all their strength. In just half a day, these Agu soldiers who were forced to attack the city almost lost all their casualties

Meng Chong is sitting in the tower, carefully folding his sword. In this battle, I am afraid that he, the leader of the army, will go into battle shirtless. When Yu Wenke launches a formal attack, there will be no such battle Easy

The siege tactics of the Donghu people are not as unfamiliar as they were in previous years. After several years of training by the people of Qi and Yan, their siege tactics have also begun to become more proficient. There are also more and more various equipment for siege. At least for now, Meng Chong was on the top of the city, observing the Donghu people's rear team. Improvised siege vehicles have been erected one after another, simple trebuchets. He also saw some things like rushing cars

"Commander Meng, please see him!" Duan Qianli, another division commander under Meng Chong's command, strode in, saluted Meng Chong, and said

"Who is He Dayou?" Meng Chong couldn't help being startled, as if he had never heard of this name

"Commander Meng, He Dayou is the person in charge of transporting grain and supplies in Jishi County" Duan Qianli replied

Meng Chong frowned, "Didn't these civilians have already been evacuated from Liaoning Wei? Why is he still here?"

"This is He Dayou. Unlike the people in charge in other places, he is the head of Baiyang Village, Jishi County. He was a soldier, and he refused to leave after he retired due to injury, and none of the more than a thousand civilians he brought from Jishi County left "Duan Qianli Road

I heard that He Dayou used to be a soldier, so Meng Chong's frown eased a little, "So it's Brother Paoze from before, let him in, I know what he's thinking. Even if you have some military training, it won't be of much help, but your heart is commendable"

He Dayou limped up to Meng Chong. He was wearing a brand-new military uniform of the East Conquering Army. Facing Meng Zhong's doubtful eyes, he saluted Meng Chong and said with a smile, "Meng Chong Commander, this military uniform was issued to me by the army when I retired, but without the identification number of the army, it is purely a commemoration, but every time I deliver logistics supplies for the army, I will bring it, maybe One day, I will be able to wear it again to fight the enemy for the governor, this time, it seems that it can be used"

Hearing He Dayou's cheerful laughter, Meng Chong couldn't help feeling fond of him. He was indeed a soldier, with a straightforward personality and no twists and turns. I don’t know which year he retired from the army due to injury?”

He Dayou said with a smile: "It's too early. At that time, the governor was still a sergeant in Fufeng. I followed the governor to Yuyang. After the battle, my leg was injured. After it was cured, I was lame again. I had no choice but to leave the army and go to Baiyang Village to become a village head"

Hearing this, Meng Chong couldn't help but be in awe. He participated in the battle of Yuyang, so he is a real veteran, and he has been with the governor for longer than himself. There are actually not many people now, and all of them are in high positions

"Sit, Village Chief He" Meng Chong personally dragged a chair and sat down with He Qianli, "I also followed the governor when I was in Yuyang. After all, we are old comrades in arms."

"That is, that is!" He Dayou said with a smile: "The scene when we sang military songs together in the military camp, I still remember it vividly now!"

Meng Chong smiled and nodded, "Old He, since I'm an old comrade-in-arms, I won't talk around the corner. I understand what you mean, and I want to bring your peasants to help me defend the city, but Old He, they are after all They are civilian husbands. Although they have received some training, they are not soldiers after all. Now Yu Wenke in the city is like a mad dog. The battle will become more and more fierce every day. Let them go to the city and die in vain. I really can't bear you to take them away Now, go back to Jishi County, where is it not to serve the governor!"

He Dayou couldn't help but change his expression when he heard Meng Chong say this, and said unhappily, "Commander Meng, you are looking down on us. I don't dare to say anything about the militiamen in other places, but we from Baiyang Village, That is second to none. Haven’t you heard that the two division commanders of the Youth Guard almost fought to **** the youths from our Baiyang Village? Our militiamen are usually farmers, but if they win the battlefield, then It's soldiers"

"I know about this!" Meng Chong smiled wryly, "But those well-trained youths were all recruited by the Young Guards?"

"Youth Guards are too strict in recruitment and have various restrictions, which prevents many capable guys from entering our place. I brought all of these people this time and there are also There are quite a few veterans, although they left the army for various reasons, they are all good players on the battlefield, and they will never drag Commander Meng back. A knife can shoot a crossbow and arrows, Commander Meng, and I, more than a thousand people, are waiting for Commander Meng's inspection at the foot of the city!"

Meng Chong looked at Duan Qianli, Duan Qianli nodded slightly and Meng Bu stood up with a smile, "Okay. Let's go and see the majestic appearance of Jishi County's athletes."

Walking out of the city gate, Meng Chong stood on the top of the city and looked down, below the top of the city. A group of civilian husbands in different clothes were standing there in a neat line with their heads held high. Each of these people wears a waist knife, which is a privilege granted by Zhengdong Mansion to the people under its rule. All the people can carry weapons with them, such as knives and guns. Almost every household under the rule of Zhengdong Mansion Yes, of course. Things like bows and crossbows are still not acceptable

In the queue of more than a thousand people, there are about a hundred people wearing old military uniforms. They seem to be veterans, and they should also be the leaders of the various teams of the thousands of civilians. At this moment, these people are looking up at Meng Chong, the desire to fight in his eyes is so obvious

The so-called layman watches the excitement, while the insider watches the way. For a veteran on the battlefield like Meng Chong, his heart skipped a beat just by looking at it. This doesn't look like a group of civilians, it's a well-trained army

"In our Baiyang Village, the residents are basically retired soldiers and their families, as well as relatives and friends who have come to seek refuge with them. Unlike other places where military training is only carried out during the slack season, military training in our village is daily. One of the jobs is to start school. In addition to studying, the little ones must also undergo the most basic physical training. There are many retired soldiers in our village. There are never any instructors, and there are not only Yan people in the village. There are many The Huns, so the young people who came out of our village are not only good at foot combat, but also equestrian. They should be first-class, otherwise the two generals of the Young Guards would not be able to fight. Commander Meng, how do you think our team is doing?" He Dayou said proudly

Meng Chong stared at this team for a while, then turned around, and stretched out his hand to He Dayou, "Welcome to the Eastern Group Army"

He Dayou was overjoyed, stretched out his hand and shook Meng Chong tightly, then took a step back, and gave a military salute to Meng Chong: "Commander Meng, please arrange a combat mission for us"

Meng Chong smiled, "It's not in a hurry, your team should change their outfits and weapons first, and serve as a reserve team first, Lao He, my subordinates, but there is no one in reserve, this team of yours It solved a big problem of mine"

"Understood!" He Dayou is a veteran, so he naturally knows that since Meng Chong has accepted his team, he can be regarded as a soldier under the opponent's command. Facing orders, he can only obey and there is no room for bargaining.

He walked down the tower with a limping leg, walked in front of his team, and loudly announced Meng Chong's decision to the peasants. As his words fell to the ground, more than a thousand peasants suddenly burst into cheers, Meng Chong noticed that some of the veterans in old military uniforms even wiped away their tears

"They are all good soldiers!" Meng Chong looked at all this with mixed feelings, turned to Duan Qianli and said, "The governor has such an army ~IndoMTL.com~ such people, how can he be invincible? How dare he be invincible!"

Duan Qianli also nodded again and again, "Experienced veterans are treasures, that is to say, our conquest of the Eastern Army is so extravagant, so many experienced veterans have been sent back to the village."

Meng Chong laughed, and pointed to the thousand or so civilians who were leading by the quartermaster to change their weapons and said: "If there is no such luxury, where do you get these well-trained militiamen? Thousands of miles away Well, the militiamen in Baiyang Village are indeed much better than the militias in other places, but in the entire area controlled by Zhengdong Mansion, with the order of the governor, hundreds of thousands of troops can be mobilized. There are less than 100,000 horses, but as long as the governor is willing, he can pull up an army that will make all countries tremble at any time."

Duan Qianli suddenly said: "Commander, this is a great move. If our Zhengdong Mansion maintains a large number of troops all year round, the cost of the army alone will make Zhengdong Mansion overwhelmed. But it is raising soldiers for the people, these retired veterans have guaranteed the combat effectiveness of the militia organization, and can also save a large amount of military expenses for the conquest of the East Mansion, high, really high!"

Meng Chong nodded slightly, and looked towards the direction of Zhengdong Mansion. Gao Yuan should have thought so when he made this decision. /
