    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 961

    The walls of Pengcheng Mansion are high and thick. After Long Jun arrived here, he urgently recruited a group of civilians to reinforce the city defenses.

    The most important thing is that there is a natural river outside the city of Pengcheng Mansion. After excavation, Pengcheng Mansion has a moat several meters deep.

    There are not many cities with moats in Luyang Province, and Pengcheng Mansion is one of them.

    It is precisely because Pengcheng Mansion is on the only way for the Qinghe Army to attack the provincial capital northward, and also has a deep moat, that Long Jun decided to stop the Qinghe Army here.

    After the army led by Li Lang, the frontline commander of the Qinghe Army arrived here, he couldn't help but sneered when he saw the heavily guarded Pengcheng Mansion.

    If they just want to rely on the moat and city walls to block their Qinghe army, they will underestimate the combat effectiveness of their Qinghe army.

    The Qinghe Army participating in the battle this time not only has the Second Army, but also has drawn a large number of elite troops from the First and Third Army.

    These elite troops are fierce soldiers who have been fought on the battlefield, and they have never been afraid of war.

    Even the troops of the Second Army have undergone rigorous training for a long time and have less actual combat experience, but their combat effectiveness is not weak.

    Because the Qinghe Army formulated a rigorous combat plan in the early stage, it did not fight many fierce battles when it blitzed the southern part of Luyang Province.

    On the way out of Yingzui Peak all the way to the north, the defenders in various towns also fled, so they did not encounter any battles.

    Now that the Mighty Army is going to defend the Pengcheng Mansion, Li Lang also happens to let the troops go up to practice their skills.

    After all, Chen Ziang said at the beginning that only an army that has experienced cruel battles and seen blood can be regarded as a real army and can protect the environment and the people. Otherwise, it is a vase that is not useful.

    The weapons and equipment of the Qinghe Army have been greatly developed, and several arsenals located at the foot of Tongshan are ramping up their production of weapons and equipment.

    Now the Qinghe army, whether it is infantry or cavalry, is equipped with uniform standard equipment. It is no longer the army that can only rely on looting to replenish weapons and rice.

    Under the leadership of Chen Ziang, the Qinghe Army has completed the transformation to a regularized form. They are now more regular than the imperial army.

    200,000 Qinghe Army infantry arrived outside Pengcheng Mansion, black battle flags spread all over the sky, and countless sharp spears formed a steel forest.

    Standing on the city wall and looking into the distance, the densely packed Qinghe army spread to the end of the horizon. The gathering of such a huge army also made the well-informed Prince Ning's son Long Jun look dignified.

    Long Jun now has only 30,000 troops under his command, and 5,000 cavalry among them are placed on the periphery to attack the Qinghe army's grain transport team. The defenders in the city only have 25,000 people.

    A considerable part of the 25,000 people is the local garrison and urgently recruited civilians. The regular army mighty army has only 8,000 infantry.

    Wanting to rely on such a pieced together army to defend Pengcheng Mansion, Long Jun, His Royal Highness, also felt great pressure.

    Fortunately, after the Qinghe Army arrived at Pengcheng Mansion, they were not in a hurry to attack Pengcheng Mansion, but set up camp and prepared to rest for a night.

    After setting up camp, Li Lang, the commander-in-chief of the front line, also called all the generals for a pre-war meeting.

    In the big tent of the Chinese army, it can be said that there are many generals gathered here, and the elite soldiers and strong generals drawn from various armies gather here, which makes the strength of the Qinghe army extraordinarily strong.

    Seeing those burly and sturdy banner commanders, Li Lang, the commander in chief of the front line, was also full of confidence.

    In the past, when he fought with Chen Ziang in various provinces, they lived a life of food and shelter, precarious.

    Now, after their development and growth, they have become a powerful force in the Far East Dynasty, which is no longer the same as before.

    Li Lang followed Chen Ziang when he was in Qinghe Province, and it can be said that he has personally experienced the growth of the Qinghe Army step by step.

    As the commander-in-chief of the front line, Li Lang is also a veteran of the Qinghe Army. Although he has fought fewer battles recently, these newly-emerged warriors are still in awe of Li Lang.

    "Information shows that the Mighty Army has assembled 30,000 heavy troops in Pengcheng Mansion, trying to stop us from going north. The man in charge of the troops is the son Long Jun."

    Li Lang looked around the crowd, and was the first to report the enemy's situation to them.

    The generals gathered in the big tent of the Chinese army had smiles on their faces after hearing the enemy's report.

    &nbsp"After all, the 30,000 enemy troops assembled by Pengcheng Mansion are at best a little more than one of their banner regiments, and their combat effectiveness may be slightly inferior.

    Facing such a weak enemy, they really didn't take it seriously, so they all looked relaxed.

    "Li Shuai, why don't you leave it to our Seventh Banner Regiment for tomorrow's battle, and we promise to capture Pengcheng Mansion within one day!"

    Tian Changjie, head of the Seventh Banner of the Second Legion, stepped out and took the lead in clasping his fists to fight.

    After being transferred from the Third Army to the Second Army, Tian Changjie has not yet achieved a record of shooting, so he wants to make contributions in Pengcheng Mansion.

    "Okay, you are worthy of being a hero of our Qinghe army, your courage is commendable!" Li Lang praised immediately.

    "Shuai Li, the newly created Sixteenth Banner Regiment invites you to fight!"

    As soon as Li Lang's words fell, Wang Mingyang, the head of the newly created Sixteenth Banner, came out more and more.

    Wang Mingyang can also be regarded as a veteran of the Qinghe Army. During the reorganization of the surrendered Southern Army, he was appointed as the head of the new Sixteenth Banner.

    Now the newly formed Sixteenth Banner Regiment performed well in the battle to capture Nanxiao Mansion in the previous stage, so Wang Mingyang, the head of the Banner Regiment, is also full of confidence.

    "Shuai Li, the Second Banner Regiment invites you to fight!"

    "Li Shuai, how about handing over the battle of Pengcheng Mansion to our Fifth Banner Regiment!"

    Chen Ziang has established a complete system of farming and warfare, so these generals are not afraid of fighting. Wang Hu, Dong Hao and other generals all stepped forward to ask for a fight.

    Seeing that these generals are all asking for battle one after another, Li Lang, who is the commander-in-chief of the front line, is naturally happy in his heart.

    After all, there are so many capable generals and elite soldiers under his command, which is what he likes most as a commander.

    "You are all brave and skilled generals of our Qinghe Army. I can understand your eagerness to fight."

    "It's just that there is only one Pengcheng mansion. If I choose a banner group to attack, I'm afraid that other brothers will scold me behind my back for being biased." Li Lang laughed.

    Hearing Li Lang's words, everyone laughed tacitly, after all, Li Lang was right.

    "Our brothers came all the way smoothly. The cavalry unit beat the enemy to flee. Many of our infantry brothers have never seen what the enemy looks like."

    "So, for tomorrow's battle, I decided to adopt a wheel battle. All the troops will go up to practice their hands, so that the brothers can see and see the enemy. What do you think?"

    "good!"

    "We listen to Li Shuai!"

    Seeing that Li Lang wanted to pull all the troops to practice, everyone had no objection. After all, it was more fair, and at the same time let them feel the strength of the enemy.

    ?Because their infantry moves relatively slowly, and in addition to the blitzkrieg in the early stage, the protagonists are all cavalry units.

    Often when they arrive at a place, either the enemy has fled, or the cavalry has already defeated the enemy, and all they need to do is to clean up the battlefield and pursue the enemy.

    Li Lang asked the troops to go up to fight the enemy. In addition to training the actual combat and attack capabilities of the troops, it was also to prepare for large-scale battles with the enemy.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
