"Haha, that's good." Seeing that Luo Po got to the point in one sentence, Yang Chendong was very happy. He very much hopes that the officers below can grow up quickly and then stand alone, otherwise, such a big project of conquering the world cannot be played with a few limited people. "What Captain Luo said is very good, even if this is the case, then what are you waiting for?"

"Sixth young master, the second battalion is invited to fight." Battalion Commander Chen Bo, who was eager to try on the side, was the first to open his mouth when he saw the opportunity appear.

Kong Quanxin, the commander of the third battalion on the side, was still thinking about the gains and losses, and Chen Bo had already opened his mouth to grab the right to attack the main attack, and he said dissatisfied, "Battalion Commander Chen, Hanoi City was captured by our three battalions first, and of course our three battalions will complete the work of entering the city to grab grain, isn't it the regiment commander." ”

Seeing that the two battalion commanders under his command were asking for battle, Luo Po, as the regiment commander, smiled at Kong Jie, the political commissar on the side, and then looked at Yang Chendong intently. As the head of the regiment, he is not good at favoring one over the other, and of course it is best to leave such a matter to the sixth young master.

Yang Chendong knew that food was important now, but it was not the time to talk about it, so he said immediately: "Okay, the third battalion has captured the East City Tower in Hanoi, and it is already very tired, so the matter of grabbing grain will be handed over to the second battalion to do." But the ugly thing is ahead, if you can't control the granary truthfully, then you will obediently withdraw and change to the third battalion. By the way, when the attack is in a while, you can let Hong Jin's Jiaozhi mercenaries take the lead. ”

This is followed by urban warfare, or street warfare, which is naturally much more dangerous than in an open field. Such a dangerous job, of course, let Hong Jin and their cochin mercenaries do it.

"Please rest assured, the sixth young master, the second battalion is guaranteed to complete the task." After Chen Bo saluted a standard military salute, he went down to make preparations. At the same time as assembling the second battalion plus two auxiliary battalions and four temporary auxiliary battalions (the so-called commander of the cold front battalion, they can mobilize far more troops than a regiment), and arranged for someone to call Hong Jin over.

At this time, Hong Jin was happily busy.

Ever since Yang Chendong allowed him to build an armed army of 30,000 men, he had put all his energy into this matter. When he first set out from Beidai City, he had already pulled up a team of 2,000 people.

I thought it would take a lot of time for the team to grow. But I didn't think that when I arrived at the city of Hanoi, I had an opportunity. Appearing in front of him were 6,000 captured soldiers.

Originally, it was 7,000 people, but after Kong Quanxin's third battalion picked out a thousand strong men, there were only 6,000 people left.

A force of 6,000 people appeared at once, but Hong Jin was very happy. He immediately sent people to do the work of these people, and there was no lack of means to scare them, that is, if they did not join the ranks of the mercenaries of Jiaozhi, then they would wait to go to the labor camp and do a lifetime of hard labor.

Being able to be a soldier and eat food is of course better than being a coolie. Soon his army expanded from 2,000 to 8,000, and Hong Jin became a powerful general.

But even so, Hong Jin has no pride at all. He knew that compared to a real mercenary, he was an outsider after all, especially in front of the most elite Leng Feng, he and his eight thousand men were just a rabble, and there was absolutely no chance of winning a real fight.

In such a mood, he was called in front of Chen Bo, the commander of the second battalion. "General Hong, the opportunity for meritorious service has come, the sixth young master said, you and I will cooperate to enter the city of Hanoi and control some places where grain is stored first, by the way, you should be very familiar with the terrain in the city."

Hearing that there was a battle to be fought, Hong Jin also became excited. Although he also knows that at this time, he is mostly holding the identity of a shield, and even the casualties will be very large, but it is better to be useful than useless. At that moment, he imitated the appearance of a mercenary soldier, stood upright, saluted a military salute and said: "Please rest assured, Camp Commander Chen, the situation in Hanoi City is very familiar to the general, and the general is very clear about where to store the grain, even the mansions of some ministers are also well understood, you only need to bring someone to follow behind the general." ”

Hong Jin was so upright, which made Chen Bo very happy. "Very well, then it depends on General Hong. When the matter is completed, the battalion commander will definitely ask for credit for you in front of the sixth young master. ”

"Thank you, Camp Commander Chen, for cultivating." This is what Hong Jin is waiting for. After saying this, he laughed too.

With Hong Jin's guarantee and leadership, the 8,000 Jiaozhi mercenaries tied a white towel to everyone's right arm to distinguish them, and the army quickly entered Hanoi from the Dongcheng Tower, followed by a total of seven battalions of nearly 3,000 troops with the 2nd Leng Feng Battalion as the main force.

Nearly 11,000 people appeared in front and back, and then launched a violent attack on the city of Hanoi, making the situation that seemed to be balanced instantly out of control.

It is true that the mercenaries captured the East City Tower, but because of the strength of the troops, they were more on the defensive. This also caused the Jiaozhi troops who confronted them to slowly relax their vigilance. In their opinion, it is a good thing that they do not take the initiative to attack, how can the other party dare to take the initiative to come to them for trouble?

It was under such an arrogant mentality that more than 10,000 mercenaries suddenly came out, which caught the Jiaozhi troops in the city by surprise. In the ensuing time, there was a melee between the two sides for more than an hour, and finally after Chen Bo appeared with the real mercenaries, the situation formed a one-sided trend, and the Jiaozhi army was defeated.

In the first battle alone, the Jiaozhi mercenaries killed more than 2,000 people and wounded more than 1,000 people. The Cochin army suffered even more heavy losses, and the corpses and blood all over the ground proved everything.

"Well done, there are no immortals in war, but it is worth dying these people." Chen Bo was afraid that Hong Jin would suffer too much from heartache, so he walked over and patted him on the shoulder, and said encouragingly.

"I'm fine, Camp Commander Chen can rest assured. Then we can rush to the third street to the west, where there is a granary in the city. Hong Jin shook his head, and then smiled.

Speaking of which, Chen Bo was too worried.

As he said, where there are immortals in a war, it is often normal for a big battle to be fought, even if tens of thousands of people die on the victorious side. I'm afraid that only mercenaries, once the number of casualties exceeds hundreds, it will be a big loss. So this loss is really not in Hong Jin's eyes.

Not to mention, these people are all new to him, and they don't have any feelings for each other, and if they die, they will die. Anyway, he can continue to recruit soldiers in the future, as long as he has won Yang Chendong's trust, he will not worry about the source of soldiers.

Hong Jin didn't have to worry here, and he became the king of Li Li when he was depressed.

Originally, he gave the ministers two days in a bit of a hurry, which led to chaos in some places. But who would have thought that the mercenaries would take the initiative to attack, which made his so-called two days even more tense, and even a little insufficient.

"Chuan Ben Wang Order, immediately send 20,000 people to press it, and we must suppress the momentum of the mercenary attack." Li Li shouted to the generals below in the palace. When he turned around and went down to the palace, he ordered the people in the palace to quickly go out of the city with him. Take away what you can take immediately, and don't take what you can't, just hide it. He was convinced that he would come back one day.

20,000 people were sent out, but they no longer had the fighting spirit, where would they be the opponents of the mercenaries who were looking for people everywhere and wanted to make war achievements?

After a few small chaos, thousands of corpses were dropped, and the Cochin army in the city fought and retreated, most of them concentrated around the west gate.

If it is really to cut off the retreat of the Jiaozhi army, then the forces will be a bloody battle, a bitter battle. In order to have the only way to retreat, the Jiaozhi army will not give up easily, and the final result of defeat is inevitable.

But Chen Bo's goal was not to cut off the retreat of the Jiaozhi army, they wanted more food, and everyone's goals were not the same, so there were naturally fewer conflicts. Eventually, after two days, the Kochin royal family, as well as all the ministers and magnates, left Hanoi City. Chen Bo and the others also grabbed the grain from the two granaries as they wished, as well as the grain hoarded by some large households.

Some people from the Logistics and Quartermaster Department have already made statistics, and this grain is completely enough for 300,000 troops to eat for a year.

With food, Yang Chendong's heart can be put down steadily. While praising Chen Bo for completing the task, he also called Hong Jin and allowed him to expand the matter of Jiaozhi mercenaries in the city. Of course, the number of troops is still 30,000.

The magnates of Jiaozhi all ran about the same, but most of the people didn't run. Their ancestral property was here, and he didn't know where he could go or what he could do if he ran away, so he waited at home like a criminal waiting to be judged.

It was only then that 47,000 young people of the Jiaozhi culture came in handy.

As early as when they were in Chichicheng, they had systematic learning, and it can't be said that everyone is a talent, but basic literacy and communication with others can still be done. After coming to Beidai City, he was received by Yang Chendong a few times and took a few big classes, and he knew exactly what to do next. Now it was time to send them to work, and under the protection of the Cochin mercenaries and mercenary auxiliaries and temporary auxiliaries, they began to walk the streets.

What these young intellectuals have to do is also simple, even a little rude. That is, they will tell the people about the mercenaries' policies on governing the city, telling them that as long as they live like before, they should farm the land, and do business if they should set up stalls, then no one will embarrass them. Even some of the grain opened by the mercenaries will be sold to them to ensure that they can eat, etc.
