    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1139

    On the front line of Lancang Province, the army lined up in four columns is striding along the provincial road, with flags flying and high morale.

    The army along this route was the Fourth Field Army of the Qinghe Army, and Tang Ping's Seventeenth Field Banner Regiment took the lead.

    The Qinghe Army now has more and more troops. From the first three legions to now there are as many as ten legion-level troops, and the number of banner-level troops under its jurisdiction has also snowballed.

    In order to facilitate the unified command, Chen Ziang also asked Li Qiye, chief of military affairs, to re-adjust the numbers of the regiments and banner regiments.

    After all, in order to form a new army, some main banner regiments were transferred to the new legion, but the designation of the banner regiment did not change.

    This time the number adjustment is also based on the battle order of each legion, and the number of the flag regiment has been re-adjusted.

    After the number adjustment, the Fourth Field Army Corps has five banner regiments, the Seventeenth, Eighteenth, Nineteenth, Twentieth, and Twenty-first Field Army regiments.

    The head of the army is Wang Cheng, who was born in the Southern Army, and the deputy head is Wang Hu, who was born in the Ninth Battalion of the Qinghe Army, and Dong Hao, a graduate of the first batch of Zhanzheng College.

    The Fourth Field Army had previously taken advantage of the infighting between the Northern Army and the Zhendong Army to seize some areas occupied by the Northern Army.

    But this time the three legions led by Chen Ziang marched eastward, trying to wipe out the rebel Longtian camp, and they became the pioneers in the field battle of the fourth legion.

    Tang Ping's 17th Field Banner Regiment became the pioneer of the 4th Field Army Corps. After receiving the order, they headed straight for Lin City guarded by the Northern Army overnight, trying to open the way to attack.

    Tang Ping was ordered to work with Du Xiaoniu and Zhou Ting behind the enemy lines in Luyang Province, and has rich combat experience.

    Now that he has grown into a head of the Qinghe army's main field banner, Wang Cheng entrusted him with the task of the first battle, and also gave him thousands of orders, that is, he can only win but not lose.

    After all, the supreme commander of the eastward advance this time is Chen Ziang. If the first battle fails, not only will the 17th Banner Regiment lose face, but the Fourth Field Army will also be humiliated.

    Wang Cheng, the commander of the Fourth Army, has become a representative figure of the former Southern Army in the combat system of the Qinghe Army. A large group of brothers and countless family members under his command follow him to make a living, so the veteran Wang Cheng is also trembling.  Don't dare to make mistakes.

    In fact, Tang Ping, the head of the Banner, secretly made up his mind without the instruction of the head of the army Wang Cheng. No matter how much the price was, he must capture Lincheng, which was related to the honor of their 17th Banner Regiment.

    "Send me the order, speed up, arrive in Lincheng before noon, and launch the attack on time after lunch!"

    Tang Ping, the head of the banner, did not ride a horse, but wore a black uniform and marched on foot with ordinary soldiers.

    Because Tang Ping once led his troops to fight against King Ning's mighty army behind the enemy line in Luyang Province, if he couldn't share joys and sorrows with his brothers, he would have been wiped out long ago.

    Therefore, the tradition of sharing weal and woe with the soldiers has been preserved. Under Tang Ping's influence, officers at all levels of the 17th Banner Regiment also marched and retreated together with the soldiers, so the cohesion of the 17th Banner Regiment is very strong.

    After the order of Tang Ping, the head of the Banner Regiment, the marching speed of the 17th Banner Regiment suddenly accelerated, and it rushed towards Lincheng like a hungry wolf showing its sharp claws.

    The person stationed in Lincheng was Feng Dashu, General of the Northern Army. This veteran general of the Northern Army tactfully sided with Li Yuanqing during this round of purges, so he was able to stay in his post and continue to be in charge of the army.

    Feng Dashu has 10,000 Northern Army cavalry and 10,000 newly recruited infantry under his command. They are stationed in Lincheng, and they are guarding against the Qinghe Army.

    When General Feng Dashu heard that the Qinghe army was rushing towards them, he immediately sent scout Qingqi to investigate the enemy's situation.

    "There are about 20,000 vanguards in the bandit army. Look at Tang Ping written on the big black banner. The leading general should be called Tang Ping."

    The scout Qingqi of the Northern Army is also the elite of the elite, and their movements are also fast, and they quickly figured out some of the situation of the Qinghe Army.

    "Tang Ping?"

    Hearing that the opponent's leading general was named Tang Ping, Feng Dashu, the general of the northern army, also laughed out loud.

    "The bandit army really has no one to use now, and they sent an unknown person to lead the attack. It's really self-defeating."

    Feng Dashu has heard of the Qinghe army such as Li Lang, Yuan Jie, Liu Yidao and others. After all, these people are the mighty generals of the Qinghe army and are the right-hand men of Chen Ziang.?

    If these brave generals lead the army to attack, General Feng Dashu of the Northern Army will probably pay more attention to it, after all, the opponent's reputation is far and wide.

    However, Feng Dashu really hadn't heard much about Tang Ping, a general at the banner and regiment level, so naturally he didn't take it to heart.

    "Give me the order, and the cavalry will attack with me. I will teach the bandits a lesson and let them know how powerful our northern army is!"

    General Feng Dashu is also a veteran on the battlefield. After learning that the opponent's more than 20,000 people are infantry, he did not sit still, but decided to take the initiative to attack and take the initiative in his hands.

    After all, the combat effectiveness of the northern army cavalry is comparable to that of the prairie wolf cavalry. It is not easy to deal with mere infantry.

    Soon, Feng Dashu's assembly order was issued to the Northern Army cavalry camp stationed in Lincheng.

    "Hurry up and send a letter to the Qinghe army, saying that Feng Dashu will lead 10,000 cavalry to attack, and let them take precautions."

    After Feng Dashu's order was issued, in a military tent in the camp, a Northern Army cavalry officer immediately called a trusted aide and asked him to leave the camp immediately to report to the Qinghe Army.

    "No!"

    After receiving the instruction, this confidant did not dare to delay, and took advantage of the chaos of the assembly, he left the camp ahead of time.

    Soon, this Northern Army officer's confidant encountered the Qinghe scout Qingqi of the 17th Banner Regiment of Qinghe Army Infantry who was marching head-on, and was brought to the head of the Banner, Tang Ping.

    "Who asked you to report?"

    "Report to my lord, General Xie Yuan of the Third Corps of the Northern Army."

    Tang Ping took out a pamphlet from his pocket and said, "Very well, go back and tell your general that he has credited him for this contribution, and if he makes another contribution, he can be crossed off the blacklist.  "

    "Thank you, my lord."

    The confidant of Xie Yuan, a member of the Northern Army, left quickly, and Tang Ping and the others quickly spread out the map.

    "If they come head-on, it is estimated that in another hour, we will encounter their cavalry." An aide analyzed.

    "In this case, let's not leave, and line up in place to meet the enemy." Tang Ping, the head of the banner, ordered.

    "Report to the regiment commander at the back that Northern Army Cavalry General Feng Dashu will lead 10,000 cavalry to attack, and our 17th Banner Regiment will line up to meet the enemy."

    After Tang Ping learned that the opponent's cavalry was going to take the initiative to attack, he also knew the disadvantages of infantry against cavalry in the field, so he immediately stopped to form an array.

    They were arrayed against a small earthen mountain with their backs, arrow cabinets, bed crossbows and other sharp weapons were all aimed in the direction of Lin Cheng.

    "Since they have come out, how can we let them go back."

    After receiving the report from the forward's 17th Banner Regiment, Wang Cheng, the head of the legion, also sneered at the corner of his mouth.

    "Order Peng Dashun's 1st Banner Regiment of the Cavalry to attack quickly to help the 17th Banner Regiment of the Infantry."

    The First Banner Regiment of the Cavalry that Peng Dashun belongs to belongs to the Cavalry Corps of Fatty Lu. This time, their banner regiment is temporarily equipped to operate with the Fourth Army in the field to strengthen the mobility of the Fourth Army.

    After Peng Dashun returned to the Qinghe Army, he was also reused as the head of the banner with 20,000 cavalry. The so-called drip of water should be repaid by the spring.

    Peng Dashun was very familiar with his former colleagues, but now he didn't care so much, and immediately led 20,000 cavalrymen of the Qinghe Army out of the marching queue, and started marching like lightning.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
