Chapter 371

Outside the west gate of wolf tooth castle is a vast field, now covered with snow.

To tell you the truth, the land in Lanyin corridor is very poor, and the yield per mu is less than 30% of that of ordinary farmland. Rao is so. Compared with the gravel and frozen soil on the plateau in the north and south of the Lanin corridor, it is also a "fertile soil" that is "rich" and "coveted"!

In the LAN Yin corridor, Canglang kingdom made wild pioneering and farming. With the extreme exploitation of a large number of slaves, the production of Canglang principality's fields not only met the needs of Canglang principality itself, but also provided the plateau empire with a large amount of food, grass and supplies.

On the flat snow, a huge pile of straw, bulging pestle in the edge of the field.

Some ravens, fearless of the cold, fell on the snow covered straw, and their scarlet eyes were fixed on the line of soldiers passing by.

Gorkin's soldiers went to the northwest along a main road. On both sides of the road, deep trenches were dug out. Every half a mile, a sentry tower and a garrison building stood beside the road.

One by one open four wheeled vehicles trudged along the road, and many local people from langyabao drove back to the city from the outside. The truck was full of newly cut firewood and vegetables such as Chinese cabbage, potatoes, radish, corn cob and other vegetables transported from the cellar outside the city.

Some carts have baskets full of frozen pears.

In this kind of weather, in the Lanyin corridor, it is not the luxury of ordinary people to eat frozen pears.

As in the city, these local people who go out to work before dawn in the morning are full of strong malice when they walk and look at the imperial soldiers.

"That's it The Empire took back the Lanin corridor, but wanted to really recover it It could be decades away. " Gorkin pointed to the busy locals on the road and sighed: "this is not the same as our port of Tulun. It's different. "

Joe looked at the natives coldly and suddenly grinned.

He thought of the plan that salean had made Last night, after seeing the terrible scars on gorkin, he had no sympathy for the poor people who were bound to be slaughtered by the imperial army for some time to come.

The enemy, die.

Only dead enemies are good enemies.

Any enemy who dares to hurt his relatives or send them to die.

Walking along the main road, turning into an intersection, there was a fork in the road where nearly a company's troops were stationed. After three miles of walking along the branch road, when all the soldiers were sweating, the team came to a huge camp in the dense forest.

Three full regiments of Imperial troops have assembled here.

A major general of the imperial army was waiting here with a group of officers. Gorkin jumped off his horse from a distance and marched forward with a group of subordinate officers to salute the major general's "pa".

"General zolen!"

Major general zolun, gorkin's immediate superior, paid a salute to gorkin. His eyes quickly swept over Joe who was following gorkin, and the four hidra secret guards standing behind him.

He said with a smile, "gorkin, I'm looking forward to your next performance These three full regiments will be transferred in temporarily under your command. In one day, you should lead them to familiarize themselves with the new weapons, lay out the lines of defense, and prepare to meet the enemy

He slapped gorkin hard on the shoulder. Zolen waved behind him. A colonel came up with a small box. Zolen opened the case, took out a new pair of Colonel's epaulets, and quickly replaced gorkin.

"In addition, according to your military achievements accumulated before and the comprehensive evaluation of you by the headquarters over the years, you are hereby granted the rank of colonel. I hope you will not be arrogant and indulgent and continue to serve the Empire. "

Gorkin was obviously stunned.

He did know that his military achievements had reached the critical point of promoting the colonel.

However, when it comes to school level officers, even if you have achieved your military achievements and want to be promoted, all kinds of evaluation and verification are not a very simple thing. Faster, three months, slower, more than half a year, it is possible.

In particular, although gorkin has made a lot of military achievements, he has not been in the army for a long time and his qualifications are not deep He was only seven years older than Joe. He was now in his early twenties. He was already the youngest lieutenant colonel in the imperial army.

I didn't expect that he was so quick and so direct that he put on the Colonel's epaulet.

"Yes, general, I will, as always, fight for the glory of the Empire!" Gorkin saluted major general zoron again.

Major general zolen looked at Joe with a smile, nodded to him forcefully, and then left here with a large group of his entourage, leaving the camp to gorkin, who had just been promoted.

Some words, do not need to say more.

Lieutenant Colonel gorkin was only a commander of the imperial army. He had 15600 men under his command.

But Col. gorkin, whose military rank will be promoted to brigadier commander, is a brigade normally organized by the Imperial Army, with more than 5000 combat soldiers.However, due to various strange reasons, sometimes the military rank is promoted, and the military post is not promoted correspondingly, which is also a matter of time. He who holds the rank of Colonel but can only unite one regiment is not uncommon in the imperial army.

Now, in the camp, in addition to gorkin's own regiment, there are three new full regiments.

This means that if the next battle is well fought, gorkin's brigadier will be in a proper and infallible position.

"Gorkin, come on. I'll tell you what good things these new weapons are." Joe excitedly took off his winter coat and rolled up his sleeves, revealing two plump white arms.

"Ha ha, everybody, these are all good things. If these babies are used well, we can fight ten, twenty, or even more."

At the foot of the camp, the warehouse built in an emergency was filled with large wooden boxes.

Joe, with gorkin and the officers of the three regiments newly transferred, rushed into the warehouse and opened the big wooden boxes one by one.

A quarter of an hour later, in the dense forest behind the camp, the high pitched, crisp and penetrating gunfire of the new assault rifle sounded. Then the roar of a large caliber revolver shattered the peace of winter, and the explosion of new hand grenades startled countless cold birds in the dense forest

Four full regiments, more than 6000 officers and soldiers, from morning to night toss through, by the afternoon, officers and soldiers are already familiar with the new weapons in hand.

Gorkin's four full regiments, each soldier with a "AK" assault rifle, each full of 30 bullets.

In addition, each officer at or above the rank of squad leader has a large caliber revolver in hand, and is equipped with an additional 100 large calibre pistols.

Each platoon is equipped with six grenadiers as standard, with 100 new grenades and 1000 new grenades for standby.

Each company is equipped with three 15m caliber air-cooled high-speed machine guns as standard, and is equipped with enough bad bullets.

Each battalion is equipped with six 30 millimetre caliber hand cranked six barrel machine guns as standard, and is also equipped with enough shells.

Each regiment was distraught to distribute 36 mortars with caliber of 120, as well as a large number of powerful new shells that were bad enough.

Gorkin, a newly formed reinforced brigade with four full-scale regiments, was directly allocated by the front-line headquarters to a artillery brigade equipped with 12 new-style 155 caliber howitzers.

In the evening, with orders from the front-line headquarters, gorkin's troops left the camp and entered the preset battlefield.

This is the southwest suburb of langyabao.

Trenches and barbed wire crisscross each other, and the ground is full of craters, large and small.

In the newly built low blockhouses, high-speed machine guns and large caliber machine guns twinkled with cold light in the dark Fort mouth. Farther behind, a gate mortars and large caliber howitzer have also adjusted the firing data in advance.

Gorkin's troops entered the battlefield at the same time as three other teams of considerable scale.

Salean mobilized all the forces he could mobilize. When Joe was still studying in Military University for the most part of the month, all the new weapons he produced could only arm the army of less than 20000 people.

Now all the new weapons have been distributed, and less than 20000 troops have been placed in their respective positions.

Behind this preset line of defense was a large warehouse occupied by the front-line headquarters of the Lanin corridor, which was filled with ordnance and supplies. Food, winter clothes, gunpowder, ordnance, even all kinds of Medicine

The most important thing is that it also reserves the military rates of the front-line troops in the Lanin corridor for the next six months.

The front line of Lanyin corridor has now set up a million Imperial troops. It can be imagined what a huge sum of money would be for a million troops in half a year.

For the always poor plateau Empire, this front-line warehouse directly set up in Langya fort was a sweet bait they could not refuse.

The night was falling.

Surprisingly, the cold wind stopped and there was no new snowflake falling in the sky.

Not only that, the clouds in the sky are also thinner. In some places, the sky is blue. You can see the stars in the clouds, showing their shy faces.

Inside a bunker dug out from the side of a trench, thick logs and thick rammed earth are held together by both hands, forming a dome with a strong sense of security. In the bunker tens of feet long, gorkin and a group of officers were studying the map around a square table.

Joe was curled up in the corner of the bunker, with a small alcohol stove in front of him, with a small tin pot stewed on it.

The butter melted in the pan and fried two pork sausages.

There was a strong smell of meat in the bunker. Joe took a big sip of his coffee cup and looked at the small entrance and exit of the shelter.

"Well, you all said those bastards would come!""Well, when are they coming? I haven't seen what a real wolf cavalry looks like
