    ? On the outskirts of the capital of Jiangbei Province, the frontline headquarters of the Qinghe Army's Second Army Corps.

    "As of now, our army has captured six prefectures including Dachuan Mansion and Wanjin Mansion in Jiangbei Province. The Thirteenth Banner Regiment of the Cavalry will soon occupy Lanze Mansion."

    ?In the large tent of the Chinese army, the combat staff members are holding batons, pointing at the map, and introducing the latest situation.

    "I don't think we'll be able to capture the entire Jiangbei Province in a few days."

    Sitting at the bottom, Yuan Jie, the deputy commander of the army, was also full of smiles. He felt that it was only a matter of time before Jiangbei Province was taken down.

    After the Qinghe Army defeated the 20th Corps of the Civilian Army, it swept across the northern provinces with lightning speed, and the defenders from all over the dynasty fled.

    "We must not be careless. Governor Xu Zhenxiong of Jiangbei Province still has 60,000 troops, and there is also Xu Yong. They are not a force to be underestimated."

    Seeing Yuan Jie, the deputy head of the army, say that they can take down the entire Jiangbei province in a short time, Han Feng, the head of the 12th Banner, is much more cautious.

    After all, Xu Zhenxiong, Governor of Jiangbei Province, still has a lot of troops under his command. He feels that now is not the time to be happy.

    "That old thief Xu has become a shrinking turtle. As long as he dares to leave the city, our Ninth Cavalry Banner Regiment will wipe them out." Lu Fatty, head of the Ninth Banner, sneered.

    The Ninth Cavalry Banner Regiment made outstanding achievements in battle this time. They galloped all the way and defeated the defenders of various dynasties. Therefore, Fatty Lu's voice became much louder.

    "That's true. They are all infantry, and I heard that most of them are new recruits. Naturally, they can't compete with our elite soldiers." Zhou Ba, the head of the First Banner, nodded and said.

    Han Fengdao, head of the Twelfth Banner: "How can you allow others to snore on the side of the bed? Although they are not strong in combat, they are always a threat. I think it is better to deal with them as soon as possible."

    "The capital city of the province has high walls and thick walls, so it's not easy to take down." Li Changqing, head of the Guard Banner, showed a look of embarrassment.

    "Your Guards Banner Regiment has trebuchets, you use stone bullets to smash the city walls to pieces, let's see where they hide." Han Feng said with a smile.

    "We not only need to fight the old thief Xu who is hiding in the provincial capital, but also guard against that Rao Shizi Ning Wang. They have all driven into Lanze Mansion now." Zhou Ba reminded.

    "This King Ning suffered a loss in our hands back then, why didn't he have a long memory, and dared to provoke us."

    "This Jiangbei Province is a piece of fat. If we want to eat it, King Ning is also greedy."

    "Hehe, he is coveting our Jiangbei province, and I'm also coveting his Luyang province."

    The Qinghe Army fought successively, and the officers at all levels were also in a good mood, all in their minds were how to achieve greater victories.

    Seeing these high-spirited officers, Chen Ziang, who was sitting there drinking tea, was also very happy.

    It is really not easy for them to develop from a partial division that covered the withdrawal of the main force to the present.

    Especially now that they have a solid rear, they don't have to move around anymore. As long as they develop steadily and don't make big mistakes, it's okay to compete in the world in the future.

    "Any news about the Thirteenth Banner Regiment?"

    Hearing the heated discussions among the officers, Chen Ziang cast his eyes on the intelligence staff next to him.

    The intelligence staff replied: "Reporting to the general, the head of Lei Qi sent someone to report yesterday that they have won eleven games in a row in Lanze Mansion, beheaded nearly ten thousand people, and defeated more than 30,000 people from six battalions of the mighty army under King Ning ?¡­¡±

    The Thirteenth Banner Regiment, who heard the thunder, had achieved such a huge victory, everyone in the military tent also gasped.

    "This old Lei usually hides and hides, but he didn't expect that he is really good at fighting." Zhou Ba couldn't help but praised.

    Because Lei Ming was born in the Black Cavalry Army of the Far Eastern Dynasty, he has always kept a low profile within the Qinghe Army.

    This time when fighting against the 20th Corps of the People's Army, their 13th Banner Regiment did not win a big battle.

    So they worked very hard when attacking cities and villages all the way, but they still felt unable to do so.

    ? After all, the Ninth Banner Regiment of the Cavalry is also attacking the city. If you compare the two, they are almost the same.

    However, the Ninth Cavalry Banner Regiment participated in the battle to eliminate the 20th Corps of the People's Army, so they still have more military exploits than them.

    It was precisely for the purpose of comparing with the Ninth Banner Regiment of the Cavalry that the head of the Banner, Lei Ming, learned that King Ning's troops had entered the Lanze Mansion, so he decided to make a surprise attack in order to gain more military exploits.

    Chen ZiangIt was also on the way that Lei Ming sent someone from the Thirteenth Banner Regiment to report. He did not stop Lei Ming from making a decision, but only told them to proceed carefully.

    It's just that Chen Ziang didn't expect Lei Ming's 13th Cavalry Banner Regiment to be so capable of fighting. In a short period of time, tens of thousands of heads were beheaded, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were defeated.

    Chen Ziang was also very happy that there was such a general capable of conquering and fighting under his command.

    Seeing that Lei Ming's 13th Cavalry Banner Regiment was so capable of fighting, he felt that it was right to separate them from the 9th Cavalry Banner Regiment and form a new Cavalry Banner Regiment.

    The limited competition between the two cavalry flag regiments can not only stimulate the combat effectiveness of the troops, but also support each other at critical times.

    After all, cavalry units are highly mobile, and their long-range mobile assault capabilities are unmatched by infantry.

    It's just that Chen Zi'ang and his Qinghe Army's Second Army Corps are too poor now, and raising two cavalry flag regiments with 40,000 troops has already overwhelmed them.

    If you want to form a new cavalry unit, you not only need a large number of horses, but also need to train enough cavalry, and the cost of training is too high.

    Although Chen Ziang dreamed of forming a few more cavalry units, given their current situation, he could only shelve them temporarily.

    "Order Lei Ming to retreat after repelling the mighty army, without occupying Lanze Mansion." Chen Ziang ordered.

    "ah?"

    After hearing what Chen Ziang said, everyone was also taken aback, not understanding Chen Ziang's intentions.

    "General, we have not lost the battle, why did we abandon Lanze Mansion?" Zhou Ba asked puzzled.

    "Lanze Mansion is next to Luyang Province. King Ning currently has 200,000 troops under his command. If we occupy Lanze Mansion, we will inevitably need to send heavy troops to garrison it, which will hold back a large number of our troops."

    "King Ning will never just watch us swallow Jiangbei Province. He will definitely send troops to attack continuously. Lanze Mansion will become the frontline battlefield between us and King Ning. At that time, Lanze Mansion will not only be a piece of fat, but  It's our burden."

    "But if we retreat, wouldn't it be handed over to King Ning?" An officer frowned and said.

    "Who said we would surrender to King Ning?"

    "Will the Governor of Jiangbei Province watch the territory under his jurisdiction be occupied by King Ning?"

    "General, what do you mean, return Lanze Mansion to old thief Xu, governor of Jiangbei Province?"

    "You guessed right, not only Lanze Mansion gives them, but we don't want Yinghua Mansion and the capital area either."

    Chen Ziang's idea was very simple, that is to set up a buffer zone between them and King Ning.

    Yinghua Mansion and Lanze Mansion both rely on Luyang Province. Once they occupy it, they will directly confront King Ning. This will take a lot of energy away from them who are developing.

    Once the capital area of ??Jiangbei Province is occupied, it will have a bad impact. After all, the capital of a province is occupied, and the imperial court may mobilize an army to come, which will be troublesome then.

    Therefore, when his strength was not strong enough, Chen Ziang didn't want to be too high-profile and attract the attention of the court.

    Anyway, apart from the areas of these three prefectures, Chen Ziang and the others will control the remaining eight prefectures in Jiangbei Province.

    As long as they completely digest the areas of the other eight prefectures, their strength will rise to a higher level.

    At that time, if they go to compete with King Ning again, they will be full of confidence. What they need now is to recuperate and strengthen their strength.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
