Beauty and the Bodyguard

Others also felt that what Jin Yuanbao said made sense. Although they had not been in the army before, they had some understanding of these military positions.

"Commander!"

"Commander!"

Wu Yucao and others met again one after another. From now on, they were not only from the same sect, but also from the same robe!

At the same time, fast horses carrying orders continued to come out of the palace, and the calm night gradually became a little turbulent. Some of the elite garrison in the royal capital began to gather and prepare.

On the way from the royal capital to the northern border, those cities would also receive orders to prepare their troops, raise supplies, and wait for Lin Yi's army to cross the border.

Early the next morning, as soon as it got dark, Lin Yi took his small team, as well as some of the staff and guards arranged by Sima Yunqi to swear an oath at the school grounds to go to war!

On the city wall, Sima Zhengxin led the civil and military officials, personally watched the army go away, and prayed that Lin Yi could win the victory!

After marching for half a day, the army stopped advancing. Because the expedition was in a hurry, these soldiers did not have a good rest last night. They began to gather in the school field before dawn. At this time, they were all a little tired.

So Lin Yi ordered the pots to be buried to make rice, and then he repaired for half an hour before continuing the march.

In the temporary Chinese military tent, Lin Yi's small team began to operate.

Li Yingjian did not come over from the forward camp, and Ling Hanxue led the scout battalion to spread out around the army to scout.

Although they were still in the hinterland of Hongshang County, they were not careless at all.

Apart from the two of them, the rest were all there.

"Commander, this is the information that the general has simply collected in the army. Because the time is too short, it is not possible to verify it one by one."

Zhang Yiming took out a thin booklet and placed it on the small table in front of Lin Yi.

Before setting off from the school field, Zhang Yiming selected a group of soldiers from the army to form the Tingfeng Battalion.

It is impossible for the Caotai team to achieve anything since it was founded. This booklet is just a summary of the information that the Feng camp soldiers know.

"Thank you for your hard work. There is no precedent in Tingfeng Camp. You have to work harder!"

Lin Yi encouraged him, picked up the pamphlet and flipped through it. There wasn't much useful information in it. It was all about the garrison in the royal city. What he knew had nothing to do with the war in Northern Xinjiang.

"You should also take a look, and then think about whether the news above will have any impact on our next march."

After Lin Yi finished reading, he handed it to Wu Yucao next to him.

Wu Yucao didn't say anything after taking it. She quickly read through it, then picked out some information that she found useful and read it again, without circulating it any further.

"Commander, our expedition this time is quite urgent. We don't have much food, grass and baggage. It's only enough for the army for two days, so we must have supplies when passing through the first city."

Wu Yucao put down the booklet and clicked on one of the entries with his finger: "This is the first city we are going to pass through, Cang Yue City. The sergeant who provided the information is from Cang Yue City. He said that he was visiting relatives recently. I know that the weather in Cangyue City last year was good and the harvest was great."

"So when we are in Cang Yue City, we can bring more food and grass, because apart from Cang Yue City, the cities behind us don't have that much food to supply the army."

Jin Yuanbao nodded, thinking about the military strategist's demeanor: "Yes, as far as I know, most areas of Hongshang County actually experienced a certain degree of harvest failure last year. If you want to obtain enough military rations, you can only go to Cang Yue." Get more of them in a city with a good harvest like this."

"Once the logistics fail, this battle will be impossible to fight! What's more, we are only a garrison in the royal capital now, and we have to recruit garrison troops from local cities along the way. We must be fully prepared with food and grass!"

Fei Daqiang did not speak, but looked thoughtful.

He is in charge of logistics. He is the person most directly responsible for whether there is food or not. He must be more concerned about it than others.

Although it was his first time to be the logistics manager of the army, Fei Daqiang was not a gangster who didn't know anything before.

When he was in the small town of Cruz, he also went to college and joined the army. His knowledge reserve and experience were not comparable to those of Jin Yuanbao and others.

"Don't worry about this. There was a messenger who went all the way last night to set up a front line for us. When we get to Cang Yue City, the additional troops and food should be ready."

Lin Yi waved his hand gently, pondered for a moment and then continued: "However, Cang Yue City should only prepare what is within their share. If they want more, we must negotiate on our own."

"Since there are not many supplies along the way, we can only prepare more in Cang Yue City. Fei Daqiang, I will leave this matter to you."

"The last general takes command!"

Fei Daqiang quickly clasped his fists, thought for a while and said: "Commander, it may take more time to raise additional food and grass, and bringing a large amount of food and grass may slow down the march."

"You are right. Let's do this. You send someone or stay in person to handle these matters. Cang Yue City's army will protect the food and grass, and then transport some of the food and grass to the army every day."

Lin Yi thought for a while and made a decision: "The army only has two days of food and grass left, so the marching speed will be faster, and then supplies can be obtained from the cities passing by along the way. In this way, we can move as quickly as possible Rush to the northern border as quickly as possible."

Although the speed of transporting grain within Hongshang County is relatively slow, there is no need to worry too much about safety.

With military escort, no one dared to touch the rations.

People from the enemy country cannot easily infiltrate and cut off the food road.

"Your order!"

Fei Daqiang didn't say much. Now that Lin Yi has given the order, it's up to him what to do next. As long as the army doesn't go hungry, everything will be fine!

"Let's leave the logistics here first. Let's take a look at the situation in Northern Xinjiang."

Lin Yi stood up and walked to the huge hanging map.

This is a military map of Hongshang County and surrounding neighboring countries. The details are naturally far inferior to the geographical map in Lin Yi's hand, but the good thing is that the military information will be more detailed.

For example, how many troops are available in Cang Yue City, how many troops can be mobilized this time, etc.

There are also some dangerous places, which are just names on geographical maps, but on this kind of military map, it will be marked what passes or fortresses have been established, how many defenders are stationed, etc.

To be honest, if this map falls into the hands of the enemy, the armies in Hongshang County will definitely suffer disaster.

"Yesterday's emergency report was that Huoyan City, Duoyou City, and Feidu City were attacked respectively. No further reports have been received today, so it is difficult to judge the current situation."

Lin Yi picked up a slender branch and pointed the locations of the three cities on the map: "At our marching speed, it will take at least ten days to get there."

"This is without considering the logistics troops, and without considering the recruitment of other city garrison troops in the process. It is just our 20,000 king's garrison troops."
