The others also felt that Jin Yuan Bao's words made sense. Although they were not from the Army, they had some understanding of these military positions.
"Marshal!"
"Marshal!"
Wu yucao and the others greeted him again. From now on, they were not only from the same sect, but they would also be fellow disciples!
At the same time, there was a continuous stream of fast horses coming out of the palace to pass on orders. The calm night slowly became a little restless. A part of the elite Garrison of the king's city began to gather and prepare.
On the way from the capital to the northern border, the cities would receive orders to prepare their troops and gather food, waiting for Lin Yi's Army to cross.
Early the next morning, Lin Yi brought his team, as well as some of Sima Yunqi's staff and guards, to the drill ground for an oath!
On the city walls, Sima zhengxin led the officials to personally see the Army off and pray for Lin Yi to win!
After marching for half a day, the Army stopped advancing. Because the expedition was rushed, the soldiers did not have a good rest last night. They had gathered on the drill ground before dawn and were a little tired.
Hence, Lin Yi ordered them to cook and rest for an hour before continuing their March.
Lin Yi's small team started to move in the temporary central camp.
Li Yingjian was in the forward strike Battalion and did not come over. Ling Hanxue and the scouts Battalion were scattered around the perimeter of the Army to Scout.
Although they were still in the hinterlands of Hongshang Commandery, they were not careless at all.
Other than the two of them, the rest were all there.
"Marshal, this is the information that this general has gathered in the Army. Because the time is too short, I can not verify them one by one."
Zhang Yiming took out a thin booklet and placed it on the table in front of Lin Yi.
Before they left the drill ground, Zhang Yiming had selected some soldiers from the Army to form the surveillance camp.
It was impossible for a grassroots team to achieve any results. This booklet was only a summary of the information that the soldiers of wind listening camp knew.
"You've worked hard. There are no precedents in tingfeng camp, so you'll have to work hard!"
Lin Yi encouraged as he flipped through the booklet. There wasn't much useful information in it-it was all about the guards in the capital, and had nothing to do with the northern border.
"Take a look and think about it. Will the news from above have any effect on our Army?"
Lin Yi gave it to Wu yucao after looking at it.
Wu yucao took it and didn't say anything. She quickly flipped through it and read out some of the information she thought was useful. She didn't continue to read it.
"Marshal, our expedition this time was rather urgent. We did not bring much food and supplies, only enough for two days. So when we pass through the first city, we need supplies."
Wu yucao put down the book and pointed at one of the lines.""This is the first city we're going to pass through, Blue Moon City. The soldier who provided the information is from Blue Moon City. He said that when he returned home to visit his relatives, he learned that Blue Moon City had good weather last year and had a great harvest."
"As such, we can bring more rations from Blue Moon City. Apart from Blue Moon City, the other cities don't have that much food to supply the Army."
Jin Yuan Bao nodded, acting like a military counselor. "That's right. As far as I know, last year, most of the areas in Hongshang Commandery suffered from a certain degree of low harvest. If you want to get enough military food, you can only get more from a bumper harvest City like cangyue city."
"Once the logistics aren't enough, we can't fight this war! Moreover, we are only the capital's Garrison, and we still need to recruit the garrison of the other cities on the way. We need to have sufficient provisions!"
Fei daqiang didn't speak, but had a thoughtful look on his face.
He was in charge of the logistics, and he was the most direct person in charge of whether there was food or not, so he had to be more attentive than others.
Although it was Fei daqiang's first time being the logistics Manager of the Army, he was not a hooligan who knew nothing.
Back in kirrlutz, he had gone to University and joined the Army, so his knowledge and experience were far beyond that of Jin Yuan Bao and the others.
"There's no need to worry about this. Last night, a Messenger went ahead to help us. By the time we reach Blue Moon City, the supplementary troops and rations should be ready."
Lin Yi waved his hand lightly and continued after a moment of silence,"However, Blue Moon City should have only prepared what they deserve. If they want more, we'll have to negotiate with them."
"Since we don't have many backup plans and supplies, we can only prepare more in Blue Moon City. Fei daqiang, I'll leave this matter to you."
"This general acknowledges the order!"
Fei daqiang quickly cupped his fists and thought for a moment before saying,"Marshal, it might take more time to gather additional provisions, and bringing a large amount of provisions might slow down the Army."
"You're right. How about this, you send someone or personally stay behind to deal with these matters. The Army of Blue Moon City will protect the rations, and then send a portion of the rations to the Army every day."
Lin Yi decided after some thought."The Army only has two days" worth of provisions left, so the speed of the March will be faster. This way, we can reach the northern border as quickly as possible. "
Although it was slow to transport grain within Hongshang Commandery, there was no need to worry about safety.
With the Army escorting them, no one dared to touch the military provisions.
It was also impossible for the enemy country's people to easily infiltrate the supply route.
"Your honor!"
Fei daqiang didn't say much. Since Lin Yi had given the order, it was up to him to decide what to do next. As long as the Army didn't go hungry, everything would be fine!
"That's all for the logistics. Let's take a look at the situation in the northern border."
Lin Yi stood up and walked to the huge map.
This was the military map of Hongshang Commandery and its neighboring countries. The details were far inferior to Lin Yi 's, but the good thing was that it had more detailed military information.
For example, how many soldiers were there in Blue Moon City, and how many troops could be transferred this time.
There were also some dangerous places that were only names on the geographical map. However, military maps would indicate what passes or fortresses were built and how many soldiers were stationed there.
To be honest, if this map fell into the hands of an enemy country, then the troops of Hongshang Commandery would definitely suffer a disaster.
"Yesterday's urgent report stated that fire sickle city, curl city, and Fei Du city were attacked respectively. We haven't received any further reports today, so it's hard to judge the current situation."
Lin Yi picked up a Long Branch and pointed at the three cities on the map."With the speed of our Army, it will take at least ten days to get there."
"This is under the premise that we don't consider the logistics troops, and we don't consider taking in the garrisons of other cities along the way. Just our 20000 Garrison troops of the king's city."
