Although it was early morning, the sky was already turning white, and the soldiers on the field had already started their morning exercises. There was a scene of leaping dragons and tigers in the huge arena. Stone locks and iron gallbladders were played whiningly. Spears and simple knives were fighting inextricably. Bows and crossbows were lifted. The sound of strings passed by, and the red hearts of arrow targets passed through the body. . The red body was dripping with sweat under the morning light. The soldiers were constantly changing their formations according to the flag officer's orders. Crane wings, cones, half arcs, assaults, counterattacks, and breakthroughs. Although they were passed by The stones were crushed repeatedly, but under the uniform footsteps of the soldiers, the rising dust still caused a layer of yellow mist to float over the battlefield, and the air was filled with bursts of earthy smell.
Lu Ping paraded comfortably in various formations on horseback. Although the smell of dust was a bit off-putting, he liked smelling the smell that combined the earthy fragrance with murderous fighting spirit. It allowed him to immerse himself in the feeling of fighting on the battlefield. In the artistic conception. Looking around, Lu Ping couldn't help but sigh softly. He was really unlucky. He finally returned from training at the military academy for a year and a half, but he couldn't stay in the imperial capital. Although he also knew the importance of the task of being in charge of the imperial capital. and arduous, but deep down in his heart he longed to show off his talents on the battlefield, but now this idea was obviously unrealistic, which also forced him to use this perverted method to appreciate the atmosphere of the battlefield every day.
Lu Ping was quite satisfied with the outstanding performance of the soldiers. Now the First Division of the Fifth Army has fully recovered to or even exceeded the strength of the original Guards Division. The battle with the Luobei people not only caused heavy losses to the Guards Division, but also It also allowed a new division to be reborn from the ashes. After that tragic battle, Lu Ping dared to boast to anyone that every remaining soldier could serve as an officer at all levels in any army without inferiority, and the First Division of the Fifth Army was exactly like this. Based on the foundation, it grew rapidly, Tiger Wing Army, this was the new name given to this army by His Highness the King of Qin, and Lu Ping was very proud of it. Even the arrogant divisions of the First Legion were not given titles by His Highness King Qin. Only in his own division, who can achieve this kind of honor? !
Looking around with his head raised, Lu Ping had the spirit of asking who is the hero in the world. At present, the peninsula is thick with war smoke and the five lakes are in turmoil. Yan Yun's sword was tense, but the imperial capital seemed not to be greatly affected, but Lu Ping had already felt the smell of gunpowder brought about by the changes in the situation around him. Maybe a war was just around the corner. If it was really necessary, he would never hesitate to use it. The blood of everyone in this city comes to wash the military boots under their feet.
Just as Lu Ping was riding his horse and whipping his whip, he was thinking fiercely. While he was inspecting the military training situation on the battlefield like a hawk, Song Tianxiong was already in his command room silently discussing with Jing Li, chief of staff and director of the Logistics Department, what the latest intelligence and battle reports might bring to the situation in the entire imperial capital. The impact and possible changes and what countermeasures the Tiger Wing Army will take to deal with it.
Song Tianxiong didn't like to use the word study to describe his residence. He chose to call it the purely official name of the command room. Although this old house was nominally his private room as the highest military commander in Western Xinjiang in the imperial capital, in fact , this room is more often used to discuss all matters related to the Tiger Wing Army. He has very few personal affairs. Whenever someone wants to be a matchmaker for His Highness the Prince of Qin's favorite, they are always declined by him on the grounds that he is busy with military affairs and does not consider his personal affairs, which makes many people even doubt whether he exists. Some kind of physical defect.
The high-spirited look of the past has been replaced by a calm and calm look. A few months of living in the imperial capital also made Song Tianxiong fully feel how important his task is. Not only must he fully demonstrate the strength of Xijiang's military power, but he must also take into account the The upper class of the imperial capital and the public in all aspects of society have a hard time sustaining it. Excessive display of force can sometimes be counterproductive. The imperial capital was the political, economic, cultural and artistic center of the entire empire. Not only does there exist such an old and huge institution in the center of the empire, but more importantly, all aspects of Western Xinjiang, including His Highness the King of Qin himself and the women behind him, are more or less related to many people who live in it. They are inextricably linked. How can I not only ensure the completion of the tasks assigned to me by His Highness the King of Qin on this land, but also make it easy for the people of the imperial capital to accept the existence of military force in Western Xinjiang without being disgusted with it? Fortunately, His Highness the King of Qin's idol worship mentality among the younger generation in the imperial capital made Song Tianxiong's pressure much less stressful.
"Ali. You see, Cheng Dayou's side is in danger. Once Luoshan is lost, Jiujiang's door will be wide open. If we want to withstand the full impact of the Sixth Army, Cheng Dayou's army may not have enough firepower. The southern front is fighting well. Situ Biao's army seems to only have that one legion. I want to see how much trouble he can withstand." Song Tianxiong's eyes fell on the map on the desk, and his fingers were also along the Moving slowly along the twists and turns of the river.
"Division commander, it's not easy to become Dayou. Luoshan held on for ten days. Hehe, that guy even came up with a counterattack and beat up that old guy Jin Zhengyang. If it wasn't for Cheng Dayou, There are not enough troops in the hands, and that one battle can wipe out the prestige of Kim Jong-yang I. The southern route? The southern route is affected by the terrain. It is estimated that Cheng Dayou played some tricks on the waterway, otherwise how could the Five Lakes Navy have Such a poor performance? If the five lakes naval forces all behave like this, I think it will be easy for His Highness to pacify the five lakes." The middle-aged man named Ali is wearing a casual gown. As the Western Xinjiang military force stationed in the imperial capital, As the chief of staff and director of logistics, Jing Li not only has to take charge of the logistics affairs of the entire division, but also is responsible for the intelligence and planning affairs of the entire division. In the past few years, he has completely reborn from a disciple of a martial arts sect to a An outstanding senior officer, he faithfully assumed the responsibility of the think tank of this army known as the Tiger Wing Army. He gently stroked his fingers under his chin, and his tone became more confident. He commented with a slightly appreciative tone that he had become Cheng Dayou, who is already a member of the party, said: "It seems that Cheng Dayou still has a few tricks up his sleeve, and the people under his command are not all pustules. Counterattack with that hand alone requires some courage."
"Well, otherwise, why would His Highness try so hard to recruit him? Alas, it's a pity that in this land of the empire, we have one more colleague but one less person who can be called an opponent. Everyone else is in the flames of war. We are galloping proudly, but we are the only ones who are holding back in the Imperial Capital. That kid Lu Ping has almost become neurotic. He has been looking forward to a big chaos in the Imperial Capital all day so that he can fish in troubled waters and fight. He doesn't even think about His Highness putting us here. The intention." Song Tianxiong couldn't help but laugh, but his words were a little sparse. Although the task of garrisoning the imperial capital was important, seeing his colleagues fighting enthusiastically on the front line, he was pointing at the map all day long, pretending He looked like he was pointing the way to the country, but he felt very uncomfortable inside.
"Haha, it seems that the division commander is borrowing someone to express his love. Lu Ping is a little unwilling to be lonely. I'm afraid the division commander is also depressed in his heart." As the head of the three divisions of the first division of the Fifth Army, , the three of them have been the original partners since the beginning of the Guards Regiment. Although the three of them took turns to enter the Northwest Military Academy for training and study, the team match has never been adjusted and changed, which also made the relationship between the three very deep. There are not so many scruples in time.
"What can we do if we are depressed? We can't abandon the imperial capital and rush to the Five Lakes. Seeing the smoke rising from the Five Lakes, we can only sit and watch. Who can understand the feeling here?" Lamenting like a resentful woman, only Song Tianxiong could behave in such a relaxed manner in front of Jing Li. If it were other people's eyes that would pop out if they saw the dignified Tiger Wings Commander behave like this.
"Division Commander, you don't need to worry too much. I think there will always be a dozen in this battle. I dare to say that as soon as our Western Xinjiang Army comes out of Wuhu, the empire will be in flames. I dare not say that in other places, I'm afraid that Yan Yun will definitely start a fight. If Yan Yun moves, it will be impossible for the imperial capital to calm down." Jing Li pretended to be mysterious and teased the other party.
"Are you saying that there will be a war in the imperial capital?" Song Tianxiong suddenly became interested, but then he thought about the many forces in the imperial capital. Although the three gates of the south, west and north are nominally controlled by the three parties, there is only one independent division of Situ Biao in the south city. regiment, the combat effectiveness is ordinary, but there are five divisions of the Guards Corps pressing there in the city and east of the city. If you want to cause chaos and fight, I'm afraid you have to first ask the Guards colleagues if they agree, "Ali, I'm afraid not so Easy, no matter from which point of view, the Imperial Guard will not tolerate us clashing with Situ Tai in the imperial capital, right? This is not in the interest of everyone. "
"Hehe, division commander, a big war may not be caused in the imperial city. Even His Highness King Qin may not agree. After all, the emperor is the center of our Tanghe people. Looking at this, His Highness really wants to sit on the throne of the emperor. I'm afraid the location has to be set here. If there is some damage, wouldn't it be blamed on us? But once the situation becomes tense, this little fight is unavoidable. Situ Tai's First Division of the First Army Isn't it awesome? Let's let our sniper team and kill team go up and try the sword. Humph, division commander, do you think the Military Affairs Administration specially assigned two more sniper teams and kill teams to our division? Are the special forces just for show? Master Ling is a man who never sees a rabbit but does not let the eagle fly. He will definitely let our division take on more arduous and complex tasks in the future. There are dragons and crouching tigers hidden in this imperial capital, and the relationship is complicated. There are so many powerful families with very close connections and so many important supplies and facilities. If chaos really breaks out, what we have to do is not just a simple war."
