Song Dynasty Iron Armored Army

Chapter 427 Adaptation of the Liangshan Army

What is surprising is that Wang Lun's team in Shuibo Liangshan performed very well after occupying Jeju, and they did not rob or seize, and their military appearance was strict.

However, among these thousands of people, there are no strong generals and no strong soldiers, so major reforms have to be carried out.

The heavy armored cavalry of Sun Anbu was transferred to Jeju Prefecture to replace Wang Lun, and Wang Lun was transferred to be a civil servant.He has a high official position and is the magistrate of Jinan Prefecture.

The moment he received the transfer order, Wang Lun was extremely excited.

From a down-and-out scholar, to being a family member in a cottage, and then to the prefect of Jinan Prefecture, Wang Lun's experience is enough to write a basic book.

Du Qian has always been Wang Lun's housekeeper, accompanied by 500 people.

Song Wan stayed and cooperated with Sun An to completely reorganize the soldiers and horses of Shuibo Liangshan.

Wang Lun's feather fan scarf has a bit of literati style.

"Song Wan, I'm going to Jinan Mansion tomorrow, so you have to put more effort into staying in Jeju." Wang Lun said.

Song Wandao: "We are doing well in Jeju, why is Mr. Chai transferring you to Jinan Prefecture?"

Wang Lun said: "Master Chai is a man of great talent, and he sees farther than anyone else. Jeju Prefecture is the gateway to Jingdong Road. The imperial army can enter Jeju from the waterway and the west road. It is difficult for us to protect ourselves with thousands of troops. If the imperial army arrives, the game will be over. What's more, I am a scholar, so it is more suitable to be a Taiping magistrate. Jinan Prefecture is the rear area, relatively stable, and more suitable for my development."

Song Wan said: "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely lead the soldiers well. The spirit of our Liangshan army must not be lost."

"Since entering the city, there has been no Liangshan Army anymore, and we have joined the Cangzhou Army. What's more, the basic officers in our team were all sent by Lord Chai at the beginning. We can develop from a small cottage to where we are today. The result of the strong support of the adults. Most of the food and salaries that Zhu Fu and the others transported up the mountain were sent by Lord Chai. In recent years, we have hardly given back anything except goose eggs and duck eggs. So, don’t have any resistance." Wang Lun arranged to say .

Song Wan suddenly realized that this is the case. In the past few years, Song Wan still wondered how the Fugui Trading Company has developed so rapidly, transporting grain up the mountain at every turn, and the cost of food and clothing is almost every day.

"I understand." Song Wan said.

"In the past few years, the navy you have trained is still good. If you guess well, your next arrangement should be the chief of the Jeju navy, General Sun An in charge of the cavalry and infantry, and you in charge of the navy. And Ruan Xiaoer from Dongping Mansion In the same way, set up a battalion of water troops to control the canal in inland river warfare." Wang Lun said.

"Brother said so, it is true. Jeju is the only way for the imperial navy to go north, and our inland river navy is very weak." Song Wan said worriedly.

Wang Lun said: "You don't have to worry about the war. The headquarters has its own arrangements. When did we see that we fought an unprepared war? Now we are rectifying the discipline. What you need to pay attention to is to control your own hands and don't move money that should not be taken. Do a good job in training, and don’t worry about other things.”

Song Wan nodded in agreement.

The brothers have been together for several years, and the relationship is still very deep. Before leaving, we talked in the middle of the night.

In the early morning of the next day, Wang Lun and Du Qian rushed to Jinan Prefecture. The land route was relatively close, and a group of 500 people walked slowly with food, grass and luggage, and it was expected to arrive in three or four days.

Three days later, Song Wan greeted Sun An's cavalry at the Sanli Pavilion at the north gate of Jeju Prefecture.

First, dozens of cavalry and light cavalry scouted back and forth to explore the path.

Song Wan asked the captain of the team, "Excuse me, Battalion Commander Sun, how long will it take for them to arrive?"

The captain said: "Deputy General Hui Song, the brigade is still [-] miles away, and we are the outpost exploring the way for [-] miles."

Song Wan was secretly surprised. He had only heard that the army marched for fifty li during the training.In the only battle Liangshan Army took Jeju Prefecture, they only marched a hundred miles, and with the cooperation of Nei Ying, they directly opened the city gate and took it.

Song Wan asked, "Is this a telescope on your neck?"

The captain said: "Yes, the telescope can see more than ten miles, very clearly."

Song Wan wanted to see it, but the captain didn't mean that to Ben. He had a high rank, but he was not affiliated with each other, so how could he speak up.

Sun An's heavy cavalry marched, and the [-] auxiliary light cavalry were divided into front post, left post, and right post, and each sentry with a thousand-mile mirror for fifty miles.

Heavy cavalry don't wear heavy armor when marching, and are most afraid of ambushes, so the sentries are very careful.

The sentry must find the enemy soldiers in advance to give the heavy cavalry time to penetrate the armor.

Sun An is not considered an old man of the Cangzhou Army, but Chai Lin attaches great importance to him. Like Lin Chong, a veteran of the Cangzhou Army, he commanded [-] heavy armored cavalry and [-] auxiliary soldiers.

This time when he came to Jeju, Sun An wanted to form a new army.His army was an experiment, including heavy cavalry, light cavalry, and infantry.In addition, there are so many Dahu canals in Jeju Prefecture, so there must be an inland water army.

When it was almost noon, the army was about to reach Jeju Prefecture.

Sun An asked: "How far is it to reach Jeju City?"

"There are still ten miles to arrive. Deputy General Song will go out of the city three miles to meet him." The sentinel said.

Sun An ordered: "Pierce through the armor."

"Yes."

Fifteen hundred heavy armored cavalry, with the help of auxiliary soldiers, began to wear armor. People wore armor, horses wore armor, and even the horse's head was wrapped in armor.

The heavy cavalry is in front, and the assistants are behind, with swords and guns like a forest, and flags fluttering.

Sun An and several lieutenants led the team in front, walking slowly.

Sun An said: "Although the Liangshan Army has always been supported by my brother, it was kept secret at that time, and many soldiers did not know this secret. We will definitely have difficulties in reorganizing the Liangshan Army this time, but we must unite in everything, and we have to not use force. Don't bully people casually, remember that our heavy cavalry is the backbone."

Ou Peng said: "Don't worry, the battalion commander. We will be a family in the future and will not bully others."

Sun An had trained the soldiers before coming, and Sun An attached great importance to this operation.If the Liangshan Army is completely reorganized, Sun An's battalion will change from a single unit to a composite unit, and then it will become an army.

The title of Battalion Commander Sun became General Sun.

At Sanliting in the north of the city, Song Wanli led his army to stand by the roadside and waited, with more than a thousand Jeju sailors and more than a thousand infantry behind him.

It is inevitable for the Liangshan Army to have ideas. Jeju Prefecture is a ripe fruit. Wang Lun picked it and was transferred to Jeju Prefecture before he had time to eat it. Many soldiers in the Liangshan Army have ideas about the future. How will they be treated? So, how is the general's personality, and so on.

Song Wan said: "Come on, cheer up, don't lose face."

"Yes."

The sailors and infantry stood upright one by one, holding the knives and guns in their hands like javelins.

Da da da da da da, the sound of horseshoes came slowly.

The heavy armored cavalry came slowly, and all the horses were fully armored, so I couldn't see the faces clearly.

The tall horse and the shiny armor are full of coercion.
