"How can you not be tired, but the soldiers are also tired, they need comfort, for the generals are sometimes more like parents, to know how to care for their soldiers, only in this way, on the battlefield they will be more desperate, bring you more glory." Turning his head as if he was very casual, after saying this, Yang Chendong was already under the protection of Hu Mang, Yang Er and the others, and walked towards the other soldiers.

Still thinking about what Yang Chendong said, Guan Ying slowly closed his eyes. He really wanted to comprehend the deep meaning of this sentence, but now, he was too sleepy, he didn't rest well when he left Ganzhou Mansion, and after nearly ten hours of rapid marching, sleepiness had already sprung up, just after he closed his eyes and breathed a few breaths, a deep snoring sound came out of his mouth.

Yang Chendong did not rest, although he was also tired, especially a little sleepy. But as a leader, he must persevere, and he can persevere. Not to mention, when he was marching in the middle of the night, he had actually taken a nap, the difference was that he slept while standing and walking, which seems a bit strange to say, but for people who have really marched urgently, only there are comrades in front and back to rely on, and this kind of sleeping between walks is not a strange thing.

Walking among the various teams, among them, the four companies of the Leng Feng battalion were just said hello to the Leng Feng people. Yang Chendong has not been worried about these Leng Feng, who has undergone many assessments and takes himself as his spiritual pillar. But it was the 800 auxiliary battalion that made him pay attention.

Yang Chendong, who came to the auxiliary barracks, was soon surrounded by officers at the battalion and company level. "You have worked hard, you are also good, and you have the courage and physical strength that are not inferior to Leng Feng, which makes me very happy."

As soon as they met, Yang Chendong praised him. This attitude of praise gave the officers a smile of happiness and satisfaction on their faces.

To be able to become a battalion and company officer in the auxiliary army, they are originally selected to have strong political ideology, and even many people originally came out of the cold front team, and they will first go to the officers here for a training, and it will not be long before they return to the cold front and they will be reused, and the future will be bright.

These people naturally know Yang Chendong's true identity, and seeing the praise of the top leader of the Yang family, which one is not full of happiness?

After some affirmation, Yang Chendong continued to express his expectations, "Tell the soldiers, after insisting on perseverance, when we arrive in Guangzhou Mansion and solve the crisis there, we should take a good rest, and when the time comes, if there are auxiliary soldiers who have made meritorious contributions, they can give priority to entering the cold front." ”

This was the promise, and with this promise, the officers from the battalion and company level became excited. They can become officers, and naturally they have the qualities and conditions to become leaders. In the cold front, the assessment of officers is different from that of ordinary soldiers, that is, how many combat exploits can be made by soldiers, rather than how many combat exploits they have made. Especially for the officers of the auxiliary battalion, what proportion of the auxiliary soldiers they bring meet the requirements for entering the cold front, and what kind of combat exploits they will get are also important in the assessment.

Yang Chendong said that this time the meritorious service can give priority to entering the cold front, that is, it is to give them a stroke of military merit, how can everyone not be excited?

After just a short conversation, Yang Chendong left and came to a tree, closed his eyes against the tree, and quickly recovered his mental and physical strength. But in the auxiliary barracks, the pot had already exploded, and when the company-level officers of each battalion passed out his words just now, many young people who were interested in entering the cold front became excited.

In the Red Embedded City, if there is anyone who is the most popular, it is undoubtedly the Cold Front Warrior.

Those who can join Leng Feng and become its official warrior can enjoy so much treatment that it will be envied by everyone. The monthly salary alone is enough to feed a family of five, and there is still wealth, and those who have a cold front in the family will have a variety of large discounts for business and farming, which makes people look red.

Building the army with elite soldiers, rewarding the army, governing the army strictly, and fair military merit are the standards for governing the army put forward by Yang Chendong. Under such a standard, as long as you have the ability and can give full play to it, you will not worry that someone will dare to rob you of your military achievements, you will not worry that your talents will be buried, and you will not have to think about your family's scheming and rear problems. You only need to train hard and kill the enemy on the battlefield to make meritorious contributions. It is precisely with such treatment that everyone yearns for Leng Feng, and now Yang Chendong has opened his mouth, and everyone is excited.

This excitement was not until the end of the hour's rest, when the army advanced towards Guangzhou Mansion again, there were many auxiliary soldiers who began to speed up, almost like a cowhide plaster behind the Leng Feng team, bringing extremely huge pressure to the four Leng Feng companies that were marching in front.

"Young master, there are a lot of good seedlings among the auxiliaries." Hu Mang strode forward with Yang Chendong's footsteps, and occasionally said excitedly when he turned around.

"Good seedlings are good, this is our hope." Yang Chendong nodded happily. The new force is the hope of the future of an army, and only when the army continues to be younger and there is a continuous input of fresh blood can this army be invincible in the world and win more battles in the future.

"Humang, it seems that these boys still have a lot of strength to use, we have to increase the amount, you have no problem, right?" Yang Chendong also noticed that the soldiers behind him were getting faster and faster, and he had a faint intention to catch up with him, so he was also interested and proposed to increase the weight.

"Come on, young master, Hu Mang also feels that he has inexhaustible strength in his body, hehe."

"Me too." Yang Er, who was on the side, said lively. In fact, such a march did not have any advantage for a person of too tall stature, because he was tall and strong, and it would be more laborious to walk. But such a disadvantage does not seem to be reflected in him in the slightest. Relying on the long legs, he has taken a big step, and he has always been half a step behind Yang Chendong, and he has never had the slightest intention of falling behind.

Seeing that the two people around him were so excited and unwilling to admit defeat, Yang Chendong laughed, and then glanced at Luo Po, the head of the Leng Feng Second Regiment who was three or four meters away behind him, "Captain Luo, add more weight?" ”

"Sixth young master, it's okay for your subordinates." was named by Yang Chendong, and Luo Po was very excited. Although he is also a high-ranking official in the Yang army, he has not had much contact with Yang Chendong, but now that he can get in close contact, he will certainly not let go of the opportunity to perform better. "These kids usually have a lot of energy, and today is the right time to see where their limits are."

After getting Luo Po's affirmative answer, Yang Chendong laughed and said, "Okay, that's the case, let's increase the size and walk." ”

Next, the speed of the procession began to increase, and from a distance, the team seemed to be a gust of wind, blowing across the southern land.

......

Under the city of Guangzhou.

Today is the eighth day of the siege.

As the capital of Guangdong, the importance of Guangzhou is self-evident. Once this place is captured, the fact that Guangdong has been lost can be announced to the outside world, so that it will be better to deal with the Minzhuang Wang Huixuan in Yunnan and achieve his political and political goals.

Huang Yuliang was able to make such a big name and have so many subordinates a year after the death of his father and brother, thanks to the change of the times. If it weren't for the fact that Zhu Huixuan, the king of Minzhuang, caused an incident in Yunnan, I am afraid that even if they did not die, they could only fight and make small troubles like lost dogs, wandering everywhere.

Knowing the importance of having an ally, that is, knowing that the capture of Guangzhou Mansion is likely to attract the encirclement and suppression of the Southern Ming army, Huang Yuliang also has to do so. And at that time, whether the Nanming army still has the strength to deal with itself is also between the two.

In the final analysis, the capture of Guangzhou Mansion is the most important issue at hand. And once this place is captured, the other three armies under his command can echo each other from afar, and then the real momentum will be achieved. But it was such an important place, and it was indeed not taken for eight days.

The eight-day assault far exceeded the earliest military planning, and because of the long-term attack, the morale of the Yellow Bandits' army began to be seriously affected.

As a ragtag army composed of more rebellious civilians without much training, they have a fatal characteristic, and that is the problem of morale.

After winning the battle, everything is naturally fine, especially when the war is smooth, often they can exert stronger strength than before. But in the same way, once the confrontation is fought, the ragtag army will panic and make plans.

Just like now, when the order comes out, the leaders of the so-called rebel army are no longer as obedient as they were a few days ago, and they all seem to be preserving their strength. For this phenomenon, Huang Yuliang even killed a small leader with hundreds of subordinates who disobeyed the order, and also frightened some people who had to contribute, but in front of the Ming army of Guangzhou Prefecture, which was tall and defended by the city, it was still slow.

"What the hell is going on? Can you take the Guangzhou Mansion? What exactly does this Ma Wei mean? If he continues to defend like this, his soldiers will be insufficient sooner or later, can't he want to be a bare-bones general? In the big tent, Huang Yuliang was on fire, with a terrifying look, reprimanding the subordinates around him.

Huang Yuliang was angry, the battle was not going well, and the other generals naturally bowed their heads and remained silent. is the general of his henchmen, Geng Jun, who is the head of the four heavenly kings under Huang Yuliang, stepped forward. "Childe, this Ma Wei doesn't eat hard and soft, he must be waiting for reinforcements, we just need to dispel his concerns, presumably Guangzhou City will go down without a fight."
