Borrow the day to change the day

At nearly noon, the exercise finally ended.

After the soldiers of the new army were reassembled, Emperor Chongzhen walked up to the general platform, glanced at the soldiers of the new army, and said, "You are doing well, I am very pleased! I am going to march soon, and I am waiting for you return with glory!"

Zhong Jinwei was right behind Emperor Chongzhen, and after hearing him finish with a few simple sentences, he took the lead and raised his arms and shouted: "Daming Wansheng!"

With him taking the lead, all the Jingying soldiers roared out together: "Daming Wansheng!"

The sound of the sound resounded through the heavens and the earth.The momentum is unparalleled.Emperor Chongzhen looked at the high morale of the soldiers, as he said, he was very pleased.

The next day, the munitions sent to the Denglaiming Army and the Guan Ningming Army began to be shipped, and relevant combat orders were issued at the same time.

The decisive battle in Liaodong officially started.

Early in the morning of the third day, just after dawn, the Wucheng Army and Horse Commander sent soldiers to clear the way out of the city.

With the sound of three cannons, the gate of the Beijing camp opened wide, and the Liao army began to set off.

The Liao army was actually all men and horses from the Beijing camp. It was composed of the new army and the unreorganized Beijing camp, that is, the Fifth Army Battalion, with a total of [-] troops.The main combat force is of course the reorganized new army, and the Fifth Army Battalion is mainly responsible for the garrison after the city is occupied.After the war is over, it will be handed over to the two frontier armies, the Denglaiming Army and the Guanning Army.

The people on both sides of the road gathered more and more. Although the imperial court did not publicize the army's expedition in order to keep a low profile, the people in the capital knew that other than going to Liaodong to fight against Jianlu, there was no other thing to do. .

From the end of Chongzhen's second year when Jianlu ravaged the land of Gyeonggi to the present Chongzhen's five years, since Zhongxinghou took over and reorganized the Beijing camp, he began to gradually win, and one after another, he gave the people of the capital a great deal. Confidence.

Because of the Jingying, the people in the capital feel extra safe.When many people who were eating breakfast at home heard that the Beijing camp was dispatched, they threw away their bowls and rushed out of the house, braving the freezing wind to see them off.Among these people were the strong man and the dwarf.

The infantry of the Fifth Army Battalion walked in front, the formation was neat, the pennant was fluttering, and the morale was high, which made the onlookers applaud.

Then came the reorganized death camp, with a battalion flag with the word "death" fluttering in the wind, and under its flag were the soldiers of the death camp, with flintlock guns and improved three-eyed blunderbuss on their backs, high-headed war horses under their crotches, and a row of six riders. , go hand in hand, not bad at all.

The short man had a deep affection for this team, and it was this team that chased him out of the Great Wall and avenged his mother-in-law's family for him.

When the death camp passed in front of him, the dwarf suddenly burst out and said: "The death camp is victorious!" The voice was so loud that even the strong man was startled.

As long as someone took the lead, all the people shouted together.The warm atmosphere made those older people sigh.They have never seen before, which army will make the people so supportive.

Immediately after the death camp, there were five thousand infantry troops that had just been reorganized into the new army.There is no way, in the previous few battles, the horses were consumed a lot, and there were not so many horses to travel.Moreover, war horses are difficult to serve and will increase the logistical pressure, so Zhong Jinwei did not spend much effort to equip them.

This army is different from the previous five battalions. Although the five battalions have uniform uniforms, they have all kinds of weapons.Now the army passing in front of the people, the military uniform is the kind of fancy military uniform that the people have gradually become accustomed to, and the weapons are also uniform flintlock guns.Carried on the left shoulder through the shoulder strap, the right hand swings regularly and neatly.It was as if a person was marching, causing the people on both sides to think that it was definitely a strong army from the bottom of their hearts.

Someone first took the lead and sincerely shouted "Ming army is mighty!" Others followed suit and shouted: "Ming army is mighty!"

"The Ming army is victorious!"

"Da Ming Wansheng!"

More and more people in the capital were alarmed and rushed out one after another to join the crowd watching and cheering.

Behind the infantry was a long battalion of chariots equipped with so many types of artillery that surprised the people of the capital.

Although many cannons are covered with cloth, their size and shape are different.A knowledgeable commoner will introduce it to the people around him in a low voice, showing his extensive knowledge.

"This is a field artillery, and it will leave when the horse is drawn. As long as people can go, there will be its shadow."

"That must be a Franc cannon. It fires continuously and at such a high speed that you can't tell how many shots were fired. Jianlu saw this kind of artillery from a long distance, and would rather be engaged by military law than charge up the muzzle of this cannon."

"Look over there, it's definitely the Hongyi Cannon. With it, no matter how strong the city is, it's just tofu. One cannon will make a hole, and the city wall will collapse after three cannons."

"..."

Later, some audience members couldn't help asking: "Dude, what are you doing?"

"I'm a storyteller, so I'll just talk about the war between our Beijing camp and the Jianlu. It's very exciting. If you have time, you might as well come...Hey, don't go, I haven't finished yet!"

At this time, someone suddenly shouted, "Look, the Marquis of Zhongxing is here."

Immediately, the discussions and voices on both sides of the street stopped abruptly, and everyone looked into the road, looking for the heroic figure of Marquis Zhongxing.

Now all the people in the capital know that only Marquis Zhongxing is guarded by Dongchang fan servants.In addition, it is on the march again, and the stars are holding the moon, so it is easy to find.

Zhong Jinwei was worried as he walked, he was a little afraid of the enthusiasm of the people in the capital.Looking at the troops passing by in front of them, they all screamed for it.Now that the commander-in-chief of himself passed by, he probably cheered even more.

It's okay to cheer, but don't be too enthusiastic. If you cheer something like "Long live the Marquis of Zhongxing", that's not good.

But who knows, Zhong Jinwei didn't move from the left and the right, so he was surprised, why didn't the people cheer!Is it not enough charisma?

While he breathed a sigh of relief, he felt a little lost in his heart.Whichever way I go, that part of the way is like being casted with a spell of silencing, as if it is very unpopular.

Zhong Jinwei didn't know, because there were too many legends about him and too many incredible things he created, so that most of the people in the capital regarded Zhong Jinwei as a star in the sky.For them, the fairy-like Marquis Zhongxing could only watch from a distance in reverence, and dared not make any other mistakes.

The last is the mounted infantry. Although they ride horses like the death camp, they are only used for transportation.When it comes time to fight, they will dismount and fight on foot, unlike the death camp, they are professional cavalry.

When they passed by, the silent section of the road began to cheer again, leaving Zhong Jinwei who was walking in front speechless and confused.

All the people of Ming Dynasty watched the army go away, and prayed in their hearts for the army to return triumphantly as soon as possible.As for victory, in their hearts, that is certain.

After leaving the capital, Zhong Jinwei rushed to Tianjin with the death camp first.The rest of the army, led by Cao Wenzhao, marched to Tianjin at a normal marching speed.
