King Zheng couldn't figure it out. In the morning, he was still giving advice and writing inspiration. He felt that if he didn't go to Beijing and would not save the people of the world, his conscience would really be sad.

But unexpectedly, I just came out and slipped around and the city was broken, broken!

That's not what wars are said in the book!

When the strong men who were forced to come over saw that the generals had run away, they ran away and scattered.

The so-called mobs scattering birds and beasts is the scene in front of you.

People who lived in the Taiping period always thought that there were enough people fighting wars.

But they did not understand that the essence of the army is to use high-density military discipline to integrate a group of people against human nature and carry out violent attacks.

If this cannot be done, the more people, the more fragile the organization will become and the faster it will be.

This is what it means to defeat the enemy.

Seeing that the game was completely finished, King Zheng rode his horse and fled to the south of the city. But then he thought that he still had so many gold, silver and treasures in the palace, so he couldn't take it anymore!

Then he turned around and ran towards the palace. As soon as he ran a distance, he heard neat and powerful footsteps coming from the front.

It was the imperial army that entered the city.

King Zheng immediately turned around and fled to the south of the city. When he fled to the south of the city, he felt ashamed when he saw that the south of the city had been blocked by the cavalry of the Lunyue Army, and no one was allowed to enter and exit.

The first thing Lan Yue's army did after entering the city was to announce to the whole city that the royal army had arrived and that King Zheng had rebelled.

All the new army had been equipped with propaganda offices. In normal times, they instilled the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor, patriotism and love for the people in the army.

Once the war breaks out and the troops on the front line take down the city, they immediately start to organize ideological guidance and dissemination work in the city.

From the perspective of organizational structure, the Publicity Department belongs to the yamen under the Military Governor's Office. In the army, it is under the Military Governor's Office and is parallel to the Military Governor's Office.

The Propaganda Department quickly does ideological work in the city to appease the panic in the city and convey a meaning to everyone: We are the king's army, we are the righteous army, don't be afraid, we will not be offended!

The emotions in the city gradually became generally stable.

Next, Hong Chengchou dug three feet into the city to find King Zheng.

It is still easy to find a prince.

After all, in the Ming Dynasty, clothes also represented class hierarchy.

In the evening of that day, King Zheng was arrested.

When Wang Zheng saw Hong Chengchou, he cried bitterly: "Sir, you finally came. Xiao Wang was coerced. Those people actually forced Xiao Wang to rebel. If Xiao Wang refused to obey, those people would kill Xiao Wang! Sir, Xiao Wang was coerced! Sir! You must believe Xiao Wang..."

But Hong Chengchou didn't seem to listen to anything, and the officers of Hong Chengchou didn't seem to listen to nothing.

In their eyes, King Zheng in front of them was a huge military merit.

Now the new army is expanding rapidly, requiring a large number of officers. The more military merits, the greater the possibility of promotion.

So, the people from the Zhengwang Mansion were packaged by express delivery that evening and sent to Beijing.

Oh no! King Zheng himself took the express passage and was escorted by cavalry!

After conquering Anyang, Hong Chengchou became very excited after a hungry shark bit the first piece of meat.

He only did a day's renovation in Anyang, and then immediately started marching, and marched urgently.

How awesome is the new army's urgent marching?

The speed of infantry marching can reach fifty miles a day!

The fast marching speed of the cavalry can reach two hundred miles a day!

Wasn’t it a good idea to travel 800 miles a day in ancient times?

And there is also the saying that a thousand miles of horses are a thousand miles a day.

Why do cavalry marching only two hundred miles? You say it’s awesome, are you bragging?

Of course there is no bragging.

The eight hundred miles of urgent communication was that a single horse ran to death, ran to a post station, and immediately changed the horse.

The horse runs for almost 5 hours a day, which is already very good. If you run for a long time, you will not only lose weight, but also get exhausted.

Besides, the cavalry marching focuses on overall advancement, rather than letting one cavalry go.

Therefore, the cavalry legion with an average of 200 miles a day is already very outstanding.

Of course, in an emergency, the cavalry legion can definitely exceed this distance.

In fact, for an army, a rapid march test is not just discipline.

Another important thing: logistical supply speed.

If the front troops move too fast and the logistics cannot keep up, there will be big problems.

So, if you find that an army can march for a long time, then the logistics of this army is absolutely awesome.

Logistics represents a country's mobilization and financial capabilities in a wartime state, and is a reflection of its comprehensive strength.

Why could Napoleon beat the entire European continent?

Because his logistics and marching speed completely crushed the armies of other European countries, and cooperated with his own series of military reforms.

The marching of the new army is basically built by Chongzhen according to the ratio of Napoleon.

Anyang is about 350 miles away from Kaifeng. At the current speed, it is like bringing all the artillery with you, and you can arrive within about ten days.

The premise is that it does not rain.

On the fifth day of the seventh month, on a sunny morning, Hong Chengchou led his troops to leave Anyang and head south.

They only have one goal: make contributions quickly and get back to be promoted!

On the same day, King Xiang of Xiangyang had led his 50,000 troops out of Xiangyang and went to the Nanyang Basin. The gentry and bureaucrats from all over Nanyang surrendered and staged a good show of opening the city gate to attract King Xiang.

Nanyang is not far from Xuchang. After passing Funiu Mountain, you will enter the wide Henan Plain and will soon arrive in Xuchang.

At this moment, Xiangyang felt an unprecedented sense of accomplishment after successfully taking Nanyang.

He saw countless squires, landlords welcomed him, and heard many officials praising him.

People spent the first half of their lives silly and waiting for death. Suddenly, a group of their own troops, and suddenly, all around them were praise and praise. Then, suddenly, they captured a large area of ​​territory.

This sense of accomplishment, which is standing in the center of the stage and attracts attention from thousands of people, is a deadly poison for a prince like Xiang, who could only eat and drink in the fiefdom before.

The expansion began.

Next, King Xiang quickly left Funiu Mountain and then advanced quickly towards Xuchang without any restraint.

On the tenth day of July, after King Xiang's army arrived in Xuchang, Xuchang surrendered without any resistance.

King Xiang himself was shocked. Why could these officials surrender so quickly?

It seems that resisting tyranny is really what people want!

Regarding this point, Zhang Chen later made an analysis: that is not what people want, it is a betrayal of the united bureaucrats and landlords, and it is a normal confrontation of interests in reform.

The decision to open the city gate is in the hands of bureaucrats and gentry, and not in the hands of the people, and the people have no right to participate.

If the people collectively opened the city gate and chose to surrender to King Xiang, that would be the failure of the new policy.

In fact, it is precisely because the new policy is in line with the interests of the people and seriously damages the interests of bureaucrats and gentry that the city gates in various places have been opened.

This phenomenon makes the vested person who has no interests mistakenly think that he has won the hearts of the people and is addicted to the victory before him.
