I heard Fan Zeng say this. Chen Ping has nothing to say, he hopes this situation can solve this problem.

The coastal areas of Bangladesh. The actual control area of ​​the Jingmen army of the State of Chu. After they defeated a spontaneous organization of local armed forces, Jingmen began to become bolder. They began to expand their positions and expanded to several nearby villages. They ransacked their villages. Quite a few women were captured.

At the same time, the South Korean army also arrived, and they also received some physical needs. Women are also a morale boost for them.

Many soldiers are still unfamiliar with the Menggla people, or that this is an unfamiliar transition thousands of miles away, and there are quite a few recruits among the soldiers of the Korean New Army. When they come here, they are still full of romanticism. They think this is a vacation.

"The scenery here is very beautiful, the scenery is also very good, it is a bit sultry, but the land is good. But all these beautiful things are shattered. Chu people, and some Korean veterans brought a group of recruits like us, ransacked In the villages of the Mengla people, we shot and wounded many Mengla people, old people, rebellious women, young men, and children less than half our size. The **** Chu soldiers were even more crazy, even children. I didn’t let it go. They threw the baby directly into the fire. This is an inhumane thing for themselves. But there are even more inhumane things. Some low-level officers force us to insult the Mengla women. I can’t accept such things. "A new South Korean soldier named Chen Zhi wrote in his diary.

The South Korean army quickly joined in. For the men in these villages, they did not kill many, because many men gave up resistance. Not only that, but many of them surrendered directly. They quickly understood the meaning of raising their hands. , Chu State and South Korean military officers also need to make some fortune, they come here not just to fight. They have been here for many days. They have long understood another advantage of these Mengla people, slaves, the best source of slaves, and they know how to farm. Obeying orders, this is a good slave. They became a source of large numbers of slaves.

The reinforcements of the Chu army also came, and the more they had reinforcements of more than 500 people. The leader was a major named Xiang Jin. South Korea did not have any reinforcements, but they actively launched their own military operations. These military operations are very useful to them.

"We need to expand the area under our control. And rebuild some docks, otherwise more and more reinforcements will not be able to dock in time." Zhang Dahui suggested.

"These have nothing to do. We can let those **** Mengla people do this. Anyway, they are slaves. After using them, they will be sold anyway." Xiang Jin doesn't cherish it at all. Speaking of.

"Yeah. Another point, we need to establish a series of reconnaissance systems. We need to know the attitude of the Bangla government forces. They have not appeared until now. We don't know what they want to do. The most important thing is that we need Knowing the location of their palace, this will help us launch an offensive. I think that only by taking down the palace of the Mengla people can we be considered as a complete occupation of the state of Mengla.” Zhang Dahui suggested.

All the officers present were watching Zhang Dahui, because many people knew that there was a lot of wealth in the palace.

"This is our tactical goal as well as our strategic goal. We are here because we need the Menggla people to make a huge political and economic regression, otherwise. We will not come here." Zhang Dahui explained. Korean officers have a certain political mindset, but Chu officers would not think so much. In their view, rushing into the palace and looting is their ultimate goal.

"I agree. In this case, the Mengla people will know that we are great. This is also a good lesson for them. I think it is very interesting." Xiang Jin said lightly.

"Sir. Sir." Jingmen rushed in and shouted loudly.

"Damn it." Xiang Jin scolded. He felt that when the officers were in a meeting, he reported in such a panic. It was an insult to the meeting of officers, and the Chu officer was so flustered, it seemed that he seemed very timid, although what Jingmen did was not timid, but he was too flustered.

"What's the matter? Captain Jing." Zhang Dahui asked. He is a major officer of the Korean New Army. Naturally, there is an advantage in military rank.

"Menggla people, the regular Mengla people have appeared. They are about 10,000 people, a large number, and many of them have weapons, and we found artillery and muskets in them. It seems that they should be elite troops. "Jingmen reported.

Xiang Jin heard this and looked at Zhang Dafa, Zhang Dafa was calmer. However, he was still a little shocked by the news, because he really did not expect that there would be elite troops on the other side. This was the first time they had landed and heard about the regular army of Bangladesh.

"Let's go and see." Zhang Dahui proposed.

"Okay." Xiang Jin nodded and said. Soon a group of people arrived at the front line. Jingmen waited carefully behind him. He knew that his chief was very dissatisfied with him, but he still felt that he was doing the right thing. The number of Chu army was very small. The reinforcements coming from behind did not arrange positions, but as preparations. The team exists, but Jingmen knows what these reserve teams are doing. They are looking for women and playing with women, and some officers even take the lead in finding drinks. But Jingmen's troops have always been on the front line, so he hated these officials very much, especially his superiors.

"The regular army of the Mengla people seems to be just better than the militia." Zhang Dahui said with a telescope. In fact, the composition of the army of the Menglais is indeed like this. They only have a small part of the regular army, which is the private army of the royal army and the little nobles. In large-scale battles, they will issue weapons to civilians and slaves, allowing them to act as a numerical advantage, but their role is not great. Fighting may be what they most want to collapse. But that's it, the Mengla people's combat model is still like this. Their army looks like a large number, but their combat effectiveness is very limited.

"They have a lot of numbers. It is very troublesome for us in comparison. Our artillery is not many. This is very troublesome for us." Xiang Jin said more rationally.

"These problems are not very big. We have disassembled the artillery on the warship. As an infantry artillery temporarily, I think it is difficult for them to launch an offensive under the first round of artillery attack." Zhang Dahui said.

"I think we should launch a night attack, maybe we can destroy them in the first place, at least it should be set ablaze." Xiang Jin proposed his own tactics. The Chu Jun had a lot of personal bravery, but this required elite troops, but Xiang Jiajun was so brave.

"Well, but our South Korean army does not approve of this. I think it is better to launch an offensive directly. We like to fight face to face. They are regular troops and should have the style of regular troops." Zhang Dahui said. There is a fundamental difference between the Chu army and South Korea’s new army. The Chu army has gradually transformed from the old army. Among them, there are still some tactics and practices of the old army. The South Korean army copied the Qin army. , Although the Qin Army has already changed its infantry code. However, the new South Korean army still rigidly demands to do so. They look more rigid and dogmatic.

The Mengla did not launch an offensive, and their army dragged on. It is difficult to complete the formal assembly in the first time. They need to wait for the follow-up troops to arrive, and they also need to rest. The state of war has entered a pre-war preparation.

Jiaozhou, Qingcheng.

"The current road conditions are still obstacles restricting the main development of Qingcheng." A planner told Zhang Qing.

"However, we have built a few roads to alleviate the current problems, but fundamentally, we still need a lot of railways to complete the transportation. After all, relying on horse-drawn carriages and bullock carts cannot meet our needs." The planner said.

"Well. Your question is well raised. More and more Jiaozhou people are coming to Qingcheng, but the shipyard in Qingcheng has already been saturated. I think the next step, the main goal of Qingcheng is to build railways and Highways, the current railway construction is not very suitable. First, we need a lot of financial support. The Korean government has already figured out a solution to this part. On the other side, we need a lot of labor, and the weather does not allow it. We only We can build roads first, and then build a lot of railways. Strive to create a miracle within a year. In this way, the development of Qingcheng will have greater potential. Otherwise, our situation will be very bad. "Zhang Qing said.

For the next step of Qingcheng's development, Zhang Qing's idea is very simple, that is, to open up transportation links between Qingcheng and the inland. Especially in relation to the railway, Qingcheng’s role as a sea port is showing, but the reduction in inland transportation capacity is really a restriction on the development of Qingcheng, which is very unfavorable to Qingcheng. Zhang Qing’s first problem is to be solved. This is such a problem.

However, Zhang Qing still faces a bigger problem, that is, the source of funds for the railway. He does not have sufficient funds to complete the construction of this railway. However, Zhang Qing is not worried about this because the economic value of this railway is very high. They have an absolute advantage. This advantage will attract more investment, which is very beneficial to him.
