The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 334: Arrived at the Yellow River

The successful display of the train caused Qin State to start a frenzy of laying train tracks. People have seen the convenience brought by machinery. With a huge load capacity, materials can be delivered at one time. And the manpower and material resources consumed are absolutely low.

But some problems followed, and the demand for iron surged. It is necessary to expand the amount of iron mining, smelting also requires a lot of fuel, manpower must also be increased, and so on. All this urgently needs Qin State to make production adjustments. Especially to develop new iron ore sites.

All this is giving birth to some auxiliary disciplines, geology. Chemistry. Smelting, metals and other small disciplines have more detailed division and development. But it is a pity that everything that Qin is exploring now is advancing in a hazy way. The people of Qin seem to have caught something. They are advancing bit by bit according to their own feelings. The front is always foggy. They can't see clearly, but they are still exploring.

Just when these adjustments were made at home. The first group of prisoners of war began to be escorted to Xianyang. People saw an unprecedented victory in the war. At this time, the Six Nations realized that Qin Jun had quietly started. And they don't know anything about it.

The number of prisoners of war is slowly converging. The number of prisoners captured alive varies from army to army. The Northern Mengtian Ministry still escorted an equal number of prisoners to Xianyang. Because of the special geographical location of the center line, the number of prisoners captured was not very large. The most is the southern route. There are countless prisoners of war here. The escorted teams all line up long teams to point A and escorted to Xianyang. Here and there. The State of Qin will redistribute the main destinations of these prisoners of war.

Shangwen got the exact news of what happened in the country through correspondence. At present, Qin Jun is progressing very smoothly. A cavalry brigade in the center line was no longer satisfied, and Wang Jian mobilized two reserve cavalry regiments in Xianyang to temporarily form a mobile cavalry brigade.

The cavalry harassed everywhere. Rarely encounters opponents in front of them, advances quickly and deeply, and then outflanks tactics, allowing the cavalry units of the Qin Army to quickly clear these obstacles on the road to the Yellow River. The infantry followed up in time to clear up some of the missing problems for the cavalry. Yueshi people who walked and fled. Even so, there are omissions. According to the original mode of transportation, the Qin Army's supply line would be harassed by these Yueshi people, but now the transportation convoy personnel have issued a large number of muskets. The transporters armed with guns even launched small-scale military operations in temporary habitats to hunt down the scattered Yueshi people. They call it hunting.

The hunting activities were carried out along the Qin Army's supply line. At the beginning, the supply personnel of the Qin Army, especially those motorcades, did not realize the possibility of harassment in the supply. They thought that the Qin Army had expelled or killed all the Yueshi. However, the remaining Yueshi people began to spontaneously harass Qin's supply line. The team suffered a certain loss. Many supplies were burned, fodder, and bedding. When these losses were reported to Wang Jian, Wang Jian had to call a cavalry regiment and an infantry regiment to clean up these pesky Yue people.

Shangwen had seen it very sensibly persuading Wang Jian not to transfer, but instead ordered those personnel to carry out military operations on their own. And if necessary, make certain arrangements according to the team to which they belong. At the same time the order was given, the people of Qin's warlike and reluctant temper made them begin to take military actions on their own. They have self-developed open-ended investigations. All the people of the Yue clan who were caught were put to death in the cruelest way, unloading eight pieces of random knives to watch them die, and then feeding the corpses to the wolves. Hunting behavior at this stage has a strong retaliatory nature. The Qin people who mastered advanced weapons began to spontaneously sweep. In this way, the scattered Yue people hiding in the mountains began to be destroyed.

Hunting activities are also being carried out on the southern line. Similarly, the transport convoy personnel harassed on the supply line have spontaneously adopted an offensive posture after being equipped with a large number of weapons. However, their opponents are more complicated, with Qiang and Yue people. But they don't care about it. The retaliation at the beginning made the hunting activity very bloody. Especially those tribes of Qiang people were bloodbathed by the Qin people's rear personnel. A large number of innocents were slaughtered bloodily. This fact is only preserved verbally. There is no official record. The army is advancing rapidly. They have to accomplish the goal of the first phase of the war. Advance to the Yellow River. Logistic supplies only need to be delivered. What to do that is their business.

The one who most wanted to reach the Yellow River turned out to be the Mengwu Tribe, which is the furthest from the Yellow River. The arrival time was the third day of January. In the eighteen days of battle, this Qin army's cavalry-dominated army almost rushed forward. They raided along the way, and then went to other places like a whirlwind. Although the troops were a bit tired, the hearty attack made the soldiers of the Qin Army fight very happily. Especially this cavalry tactics. They are getting more and more skilled.

After the Mengwu Ministry advanced to the side of the Yellow River, it was discovered that the Yellow River water unexpectedly melted. They wanted to take advantage of the severe cold at the end of winter to pass on the ice, but now it seems impossible to achieve it. So they had to look at the surface of the river where a lot of ice was floating and waited for the arrival of the engineers. Or looking for other river crossing locations. It will take a while for the engineers. Because they left the engineers far behind.

The mid-line advance to the Yellow River was two days later. Their marching routes are mostly mountain ravines, so the speed is a bit slow. But after they arrived at the Yellow River, they immediately began to tentatively choose to cross the river mouth. Their section of the Yellow River ice has not melted. After probing. Some troops began to cross the river on a large scale. On the other side of the Yellow River, Helan Mountain advanced. The army is slowly pushing forward, and the rear replenishment site has also begun to set up replenishment points on the east bank of the Yellow River. Everything is going smooth.

The airship unit of the Celestial Army did not participate in the rapid advance, and they were naturally excluded by the Army. Their arrival made everyone in the Army feel disgusted. They believe that the heavenly army is here to pick up ready-made products. Therefore, although the Celestial Army entered the war zone, they did not have a combat mission. They were extremely unbalanced and dissatisfied. In order to fight, they could only participate in hunting operations. Act with those logistics staff. But their huge bodies and slow-reacting movements. Make those logistics personnel reluctant to start hunting operations with them. Because the airships of the Celestial Army will expose their actions. The logistics staff thought it would be better to join the airship, but they broke the operation several times. Their view of the Celestial Army is that they are not useful. The cheers of the people in Xianyang and the cynicism of the logistics staff made the heavenly army very uncomfortable.
