There were tanks in the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 466 Military Exercise ([-])

Fall seeding takes time.

Training also takes time.

Today's Qilin Army needs a lot of time to complete these, but the Northern Song Dynasty court will not give the Qilin Army so much time.

The arrival of the three envoys from Liangzhe Road also showed the court's attitude.

The imperial court wants to return to Jiangnan.

No matter from which point of view, today’s Jiangnan still belongs to the imperial court at least on the surface. Although the incident between Zhu Xi and Hua Shigang made the imperial court feel alienated in Jiangnan, no matter how you look at it, this Jiangnan still belongs to the imperial court. The Jiangnan rebellion broke out, and the court naturally had to send people to re-govern Jiangnan.

Historically, alliances at sea were forged this year.

Once the imperial court and the Kingdom of Jin formed an alliance to attack the Liao Dynasty, then the Western Army would definitely send troops to attack the Liao Kingdom, and they would not have the mind and energy to focus on the Jiangnan side.

The imperial court did not only have the Western Army, but the armies from other routes were inferior to the Western Army in terms of combat strength, and they were all stationed in the north of Chen, so they could not go south, otherwise they would not have become the Ren Qilin Army in the first place.

The imperial court is not a fool.

This time, three envoys were sent out on Liangzhe Road to test Li Chu's intentions. Once Li Chu chooses to accept, everyone will be happy. The imperial court directly accepts Jiangnan, and you, the Qilin Army, can continue to eliminate the remaining thieves in Jiangnan for the imperial court with peace of mind.But if Li Chu didn't accept it, then the imperial court would definitely not be merciful.

Before the agreed time to attack Liao, the imperial court would definitely send the Western Army to the south to destroy the Qilin Army one step ahead.

The reason why the Western Army was not allowed to go south was because there were small outbreaks at any time during the Northwest War. Now that the Western Army has won several battles in the Northwest, the Xixia people no longer dare to go south to invade. This gave the Western Army enough Time to go south.

At least in the imperial court, no matter how powerful your Qilin army is, it is impossible to be as strong as the most elite western army in the imperial court.

Therefore, the possibility of the imperial court dispatching the Western Army to the south again is very, very high.

This is also the reason why Li Chu directly detained these three people.

Try to delay the time as much as possible to paralyze the imperial court. How long it can be delayed. Once the imperial court signs a covenant with Jin Guo, the main energy of the imperial court will be put on the Liao Kingdom and the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun , at least before the Qilin Army continued to rebel on the surface, the court definitely did.

The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were of great significance to the Northern Song Dynasty, not just some military status, but a heart disease of the emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty.

However, if these three people are detained alone, I am afraid they will not be able to hide it for a long time.

Once the imperial court discovered that these three envoys did not appear on Liangzhe Road, they naturally guessed the intention of the Qilin Army.

I'm afraid that time will be the time for the Western Army to go south.

In this way, it can't be done.

Originally, I was afraid that the Qilin army would have to face the soldiers and horses of the imperial court.

But now.

Li Chu looked at the items in the system storage space that were drawn in the last lottery.

There are ten loli leopard scout tanks.

There is a Black Hawk utility helicopter.

These things couldn't have come at a better time, and it just happened to be this critical period.

The tank team has been selected and has also undergone some simple training.

Many of the drivers among them were the ones who were the first to learn how to drive in the Qilin Army.

Not to mention being able to fight skillfully with a tank, at least it is possible to run around with a tank.

After discussing this plan with Shi Tianyi, Shi Tianyi immediately clapped his hands in approval.

Even Shi Tianyi did not expect that Lu Men would send such a batch of excellent combat weapons at this time.

"Pass down the order to invite the transfer envoys and appeasement envoys of Huainan East Road, the transfer envoys of Huainan East Road, appeasement envoys, and the prefects of the two prefectures to come to Tongzhou to participate in the military exercise of the Qilin Army. And call it, just to let them see the strength of the Qilin army. As for the time, considering that it will take time for these officials to travel, it will also take time to deliver the letter, so the time should be arranged in a month."

A month's time can buy a lot of time for the Qilin Army.

At that time, the autumn plowing here will be almost completed, which will save a lot of thought and energy.

After Li Chu issued the order, Feng Yu immediately wrote Li Chu's order into an invitation letter, stamped it with the seal of General Qilinwei, and sent someone to Huainan Road.

There are east and west roads in Huainan, that is, the area around Jiangning and Suzhou, north of the Yangtze River.

The south of the Yangtze River is Jiangnan, and the north is Jiangbei, which belongs to the east-west road of Huainan.

In addition to Jiangbei, Li Chu thought about it, and simply asked Fengyu to invite the transfer envoy from Jing South Road, and the transfer envoy from Jiangnan West Road.

After finishing these things, Li Chu was busy looking for a construction site for the railway station.

In Ruzhou, every commoner and soldier has Huaxin, and there are Huaxin supporting equipment on Jingxi South Road.

But on the Jiangnan side, there is no such equipment. The military merits obtained by the soldiers of the Kirin Army are all stored in Huaxin, and there is no place to choose to exchange them for upgrades.

This matter has also aroused many discussions in the military.

These soldiers don't want to exchange military merits for items, but mainly for promotion.

You can exchange items at any time, don't worry, and everyone's wives and children are also on Jingxi South Road, so there is no difference between early exchange and late exchange. On the contrary, it is very urgent for this promotion.

Seeing this, Li Chu spent a lot of customized coins to build a simple military merit exchange system column in the state capital of each state on Liangzhe Road. This exchange column currently only supports military merit exchange for military promotion.

In this regard, the soldiers of the Kirin Army immediately burst into joy.

What is the war for?
One power, two money.

When the military rank is promoted, the power will naturally increase, and the benefits obtained from the increased power will be even greater.

Not to mention the benefits I have gained, at least this military rank has been promoted, and my wife and children at home on South Jingxi Road can also get some other supplements because of this promotion.

In this way, another seven days passed.

Jiangning City.

The three envoys from Liangzhe Road sent to the south of the Yangtze River were also detained and placed under house arrest for seven days.

These seven days were a deep torture for them.

Although he will not be missing here for food and clothing, the three meals a day are delivered on time, and the meals are also very rich.But only in this line of work, they can only stay in a small courtyard every day, and cannot go out or talk to others. Even their servant has only one servant who comes in to serve, and they are also restricted in various ways.

The most important thing is that they still haven't understood the meaning of Qilin Army.

Are you trying to rebel?or what?
If the Qilin army is really going to rebel, they will be sitting on the tip of a needle, not to mention how the court will deal with them, at least the Qilin army will not let them go.

But if the Qilin army didn't rebel, but now they have placed the three of them under house arrest, isn't this also equivalent to rebellion?
During the past seven days, these three people have been thinking wildly.

However, the three of them couldn't get in touch with each other, and they were all placed under house arrest separately, and the yards were far apart.

On this day, Li Chu found Chen Anren.
