Chapter 1008: Advance!
"Without a doubt, we will certainly make Yan Wang's army stumble before us," Bolt said with a firm expression.
After this period of training, the sixty thousand able-bodied men they transported from Australia were already qualified soldiers.
Together with the Coalition, they now possessed an army of one hundred and eighty thousand composed of Westerners in the Tianzhu region.
The indigenous armies had also received more thorough training, and their numbers had increased, including the armies of Jiaozhi and Piaoman.
They would use even greater power to have a showdown with the army of Da Song and decide the victor.
"Long live Britain, long live the Queen!" Wesley shouted loudly at this moment.
Bolt also shouted, and the two looked at each other, a fierce glint flashing in both their eyes.
……
Jiaozhou.
Chong County.
This was the front line where the Azure Dragon Army stood in a standoff against Jiaozhi, and the Azure Dragon Army was currently stationed here.
At this moment, Qin Shan was observing the machine guns sent from Yancheng on the Drill Ground.
Although he had seen them several times in the few days since he returned, he felt he could never see enough of them.
"General, it is said that this hand-cranked machine gun performed excellently on the Yongzhou battlefield, beating the Beidi Cavalry until they cried for their parents. This time, we must also let Jiaozhi taste its power. Damn it, after latching onto the Frankish people, these sons of bitches think they can challenge our Da Song. This time, we must beat the shit out of them," said a general at Qin Shan's side.
Hearing this, Qin Shan nodded.
This general had always been a capable officer under his command.
Having been ordered to form the Azure Dragon Army, he naturally could not go to Jinling alone.
Only after crying and howling to demand his old subordinates from Chang Wei did he set off satisfied.
Currently, the three great Captains of the Azure Dragon Army were all men he used with ease.
The one speaking was named Shang Yi.
"During the previous dynasty, Jiaozhi once invaded Jiaozhou and slaughtered the people of Jiaozhou. The Jiaozhi soldiers were extremely cruel, even building things called monuments of heads," Qin Shan said, squinting his eyes.
"Monuments of heads? What is a monument of heads?" Shang Yi showed a strange expression.
"It is mixing the corpses and heads of the people and soldiers with yellow soil to cast a shape like a pyramid," Qin Shan said through gritted teeth.
In the history of the Central Plains, this Jiaozhi once belonged to a part of the Central Plains.
But before the Liang Dynasty, in the Kang Dynasty, the Ruan Clan guarding Jiaozhi launched a rebellion and ascended the throne as emperor.
Since then, Jiaozhi broke away from the control of the Central Plains.
Because the Ruan Clan did not obtain the country legitimately, they fooled the people of Jiaozhi, fabricated historical facts, and created hatred between Jiaozhi and the Central Plains dynasties.
Seeing the decline of the Central Plains dynasties, they repeatedly invaded the Central Plains, claiming that everything south of Jiujiang was the ancestral land of Jiaozhi.
After Da Song was established, it also had several wars with Jiaozhi, with both wins and losses.
It was not until Jiaozhi was conquered by the Frankish people in recent years that Jiaozhou became a bit more stable.
Now, with the instigation of the Frankish people, added to Jiaozhi's inherent ambition toward the Central Plains.
They were making a comeback, invading with the strength of their entire nation.
"Fuck their mothers! If they like monuments of heads so much, I will use the heads of the Jiaozhi people to build one for them," Shang Yi was stirred into a fit of rage by Qin Shan's explanation.
After a pause, he said, "I hope His Highness's order can arrive quickly; this subordinate cannot wait to deal with the Jiaozhi people."
"I have returned, and the machine guns have arrived; the order will not be far off. Wait patiently," Qin Shan laughed.
Coming south this time, they could be said to be fully prepared.
Qin Shan Rifles, hand-cranked machine guns, and the army was also equipped with new-style Howitzers and Rifled Cannons; this was enough to give the Jiaozhi people a hard time.
At the same time.
Yunzhou, Kuncheng.
Guan Tong and the generals under his command were also waiting for orders.
The longer he stayed in Kuncheng, the more Guan Tong understood the local history.
The people living here were incomparably filled with fear toward Piaoman.
Because, in the history of Yunzhou, Piaoman had invaded Yunzhou several times, even pressing on to Yiyang in Yizhou.
Not only did they burn, kill, and loot along the way, but they also abducted a large number of people.
In daily life, Piaoman soldiers would also harass the border and attack villages.
Together with Jiaozhi on the other side of Jiaozhou,
The two were known as the Southern Two Locusts.
Even though the Vermilion Bird Army was currently stationed here, the people of Yunzhou were still very uneasy.
The news of the approaching armies of the four countries—Piaoman, Jiaozhi, Nanzhang, and Funan—had long spread throughout Yunzhou and Jiaozhou.
Many people even took their families and fled the two provinces to take refuge.
Another two or three days passed.
Cavalry sent Telegraphs one after another from the northern borders of Jiaozhou and Yunzhou.
The content of the Telegraph was only two words—March South.
Upon receiving the order, the entire Azure Dragon Army and Vermilion Bird Army were high-spirited, one after another preparing for the southern campaign.
"This time our Vermilion Bird Army has one hundred and six machine guns, forty-two more than the Azure Dragon Army. Of course, the Piaoman army we are facing is numerous, but no matter how many people they have, you remember this: you must occupy Yangon before the Azure Dragon Army occupies Hanoi, otherwise I will deal with you," before setting off, Guan Tong roared at the group of generals.
The Vermilion Bird Army had just been established, and this was the first battle they would fight.
Precisely because it was a New Army, he did not want the army he had built with his own hands to be looked down upon by other armies.
And this battle was the opportunity for them to prove themselves.
"Yes, General!" The Vermilion Bird Army generals heard this, straightened their bodies, and collectively gave a military salute to Guan Tong.
Guan Tong nodded and pointed to the south, "Set off, and beat the Piaoman into a pulp for me!"
While Guan Tong ordered the advance into Piaoman, Qin Shan in Jiaozhou also issued an order.
The Azure Dragon Army moved out of Zhennan Pass and marched toward Jiaozhi!
