Chapter 1097: Trains, Trains

"Who goes there!"

"Whose army is this!"

"What is going on!"

Xie Ping was completely dumbfounded.

Because according to his projections, it was simply impossible for any army to come to the rescue in such a short time! How large is Liaodong? The Liaodong in Liu Zheng's planning was the entire Northeast Three Provinces of his past life!

Therefore, even from the nearest Liaodong Prefecture, it would take a month or so to provide support!

But now...

It has only been a few days?

How is this possible!

How did they manage it!

"Reinforcements have arrived!"

"Ahhhhh, reinforcements!"

"It really is reinforcements!"

On Xiao Qian's side, everyone was already jubilant, and their low morale surged in an instant.

Reinforcements!

They had originally thought there would be no reinforcements, because in terms of time, it was simply too late, it was not feasible.

Yet now...

"It's a massive army!"

After calming down for a moment, Xiao Qian also could not help but heave a huge sigh of relief!

Someone with rich experience could tell just by the sound of the artillery fire how many troops were coming to the rescue!

It was overwhelming!

As far as the current Longyan is concerned, there is only one force that dares to play with cannons in such an overwhelming manner, and that is Liangzhou! Only when Liangzhou is involved can the use of cannons be so grand!

The non-stop cannons!

And they were steady, accurate, and ruthless!

Only Liangzhou's cannons could be so domineering, so badass!

"Charge!"

Sure enough.

Under the cover of the artillery bombardment, people could already see the Liaodong Army, dressed in green military uniforms, rushing over like madmen, covering the mountains and plains, as far as the eye could see.

Xie Ping's expression changed instantly.

"How is this possible!"

"How can this be!"

These one hundred thousand Liaodong Army troops appeared before them like soldiers descending from heaven.

Xiao Qian organized a counterattack again at the very first moment.

The combination of the two great armies, just by the advantage of numbers, was not something the Youzhou Sudden Cavalry could compare to.

Charge.

This was the final all-out attack!

Xiao Qian naturally would not give up this opportunity, because at this moment, morale could be used! Morale should be used!

"Charge!"

The war drums began to sound.

Like a hot knife through butter, the absolute advantage in numbers and artillery fire made the previous advantages of timing, geography, and human support of the Youzhou Sudden Cavalry completely a joke. All their advantages were flattened by the artillery bombardment at this moment!

"My Lord!"

"What should we do!"

"This..."

"My Lord!"

The once arrogant generals of the Youzhou Sudden Cavalry were already stunned at this moment.

Who could have imagined that the reinforcements would arrive so quickly, as if they had fallen from the sky!

The excellent situation...

Changed in an instant.

Everyone's mind was blank, because this was a guaranteed victory! Just like that, it was gone, gone...

Xie Ping was already furious.

"Retreat!"

"Retreat, give me the order to retreat!"

At this time, he dared not go deep into Fuyuan Town, nor did he dare to go to Kuye Island! Because doing so would easily lead to them being surrounded! He could only retreat back to Youzhou... he could only retreat in that direction. However, at this moment, the Liaodong Army and the Qingzhou Army were both holding their breath... if you retreat, I will pursue!

Beating a drowning dog, that is exactly what this is about!

Very quickly.

The Youzhou Sudden Cavalry, who had held the upper hand just a few days ago, were beaten into a sorry state by the combined forces of the Qingzhou Army and the Liaodong Army.

The once ambitious Xie Ping now only wanted to return

to his own small patch of land, to stabilize, to hold on!

However, what he did not know was...

At this moment, with the great armies of Longyan approaching from all directions, it was already fated that he would even lose Youzhou.

……

"What?"

"How is that possible!"

"Arriving in two days?"

"This……"

At this moment, the entire Jinghua was stunned upon receiving this news.

Especially Dong Guifei and those Old Aristocrats, because they were still waiting for Liu Zheng to make a fool of himself, waiting for Liu Zheng's joke, waiting for Liu Zheng's failure…… and yet, you tell me he arrived in two days, pulling off a move like divine soldiers descending from heaven?

How did he manage to do it?

Train……

This new term appeared in Longyan for the first time.

Then.

The arrival of various intelligence reports caused everyone's expressions to change.

Those Old Aristocrats were even more struck dumb.

What kind of thing is this?

The promotion of the Track Carriage had already left them awestruck.

And now this Steam Train……

It could actually be this fast!

Moreover, its capacity was so large, sufficient to transport so many troops!

Shocked!

At this moment, they couldn't help but jump up abruptly. Following that, they drew in a deep breath of cold air.

So it turns out……

Vice Minister Liu had been making preparations in this regard all along!

Troop transport!

This biggest problem had actually been solved by him long ago!

If that is the case……

My god……

These people were all terrified one by one.

One must know, these Feudatory Kings, each province's military strength was at most three hundred thousand! But what about Liangzhou? Liangzhou alone had three hundred thousand! Then Liaodong also had three hundred thousand! Following that, the Western Regions had three hundred thousand, and this did not even include those small Western Region countries like Loulan! Then there was the East India Company in Central Asia, which also had several hundred thousand!

The Southern Barbarians……

They also had a great army!

This meant that at the very least, the military strength in Liu Zheng's hands had already exceeded one million!

A million-strong army……

After reaching this conclusion, the Old Aristocrats all felt a sense of powerlessness in their hearts.

Three hundred thousand……

One million……

How is this supposed to be played?

This Vice Minister Liu is too ruthless, and too black-bellied! He brought out something like a Train at this very moment; it is simply enough to make people despair! When Xie Tianyao was alive, he didn't dare…… but now that he has brought it out, he is clearly the most formidable existence in all of Longyan!

Who could possibly defeat him?

The Prince of Qin and Zhu Zhen were also stunned at this moment.

Especially the Prince of Qin……

Sweat had already begun to bead on his forehead.

Good fellow.

No wonder after Xie Tianyao passed away, Liu Zheng directly distanced himself from the New Aristocracy forces and formed his own faction.

It turns out he had the capital to do so!

Fortunately, because of past sentiments, the Prince of Qin had not been overly defiant toward this Vice Minister Liu; otherwise, he feared he would now end up just as miserably as that group of Old Aristocrats…… The parliament was about to be established, and he, the Prince of Qin, could still secure many positions, but that might not be the case for those Old Aristocrats.

"Too precarious……"

The Prince of Qin could not help but let out a bitter laugh.

The Prince of Wei and the Prince of Yong were the same.

They finally had to admit that their pace and thinking could no longer keep up with Liu Zheng at all.

……

"Defeat Tsarist Russia!"

"Train, train!"

At the same time.

All the trains that Liu Zheng had prepared beforehand were put into use.

within.

Hu Bu, leading the great army, returned to reinforce at the first opportunity……

The Western Regions army rushed toward Balkhash Lake at the first opportunity……

The Chuan Shu army and the Hanzhong army were likewise mobilized at the first opportunity.

The atmosphere of the entire Longyan instantly surged.

The common people, furthermore, expressed their support for the War of Resistance.

Those Steam Trains, one after another, not only attracted the attention of these people but also represented the hope of the Longyan War of Resistance! The common people, one after another, shoved their sons and young men onto the Trains!

Good sons!

Go fight in the War of Resistance!

There were also many people waiting along the route for these Trains, shoving a lot of grain, clothing, and medicinal herbs onto them...

The Train.

It made communication throughout the entire Longyan much more convenient.
