[Chapter 608] Tianxiang Army, the wild vision of mountain troops
Xu Xingxia had just returned to her residence and before she could sit down, someone came to report: "Sir, the two commanders of the Tianxiang Army, Bai Xuefei and Gao Yanfei, have arrived."
Bai Xuefei is a guy who was a little dissatisfied in the Heishan Camp. As for Gao Yanfei, he was the leader of the Qiang tribe, whose original name was Pulprak Aldo. Gao Yanfei was his Chinese name. The two of them were Xu Xingxia's chief and deputy commander of the Tianxiang Army. This time they were called to him to understand the situation of the Tianxiang Army in person.
The Tianxiang Army is a unit that Xu Xingxia values very much. It is the first special mountain combat unit of the White-Clothing Army. The establishment of this mountain combat unit is of course closely related to the upcoming combat tasks of the White-Clothing Army. As the territory controlled by the White-Clothing Army continues to expand, more and more mountainous areas. In combat in mountainous areas, ordinary cavalry and infantry are incompetent. Judging from the experience of later generations, there must be a special mountain combat unit.
From a distant perspective, after passing the Yarkand Kingdom and the Pamir Mountains, they are the territory of the Three Kingdoms of the Western Regions, which is the territory of the Three Queens of the Western Regions. These areas are the Central Asian regions in later generations, and the area of mountains is large.
There are no decent roads in many places. It seems that a considerable part of the areas controlled by the Khorasan Kingdom are the Afghan area in later generations. Even the US military teams suffered a lot here, let alone the military teams four hundred years ago.
If there are not enough mountain combat troops to fight on these rugged, complex and bumpy terrain, you will definitely suffer if you don’t have enough mountain combat troops. Hundreds of years ago, the Tang Dynasty army was defeated by Ross and had to give up control of the Central Asian region, causing the Central Asian region to fall to the Middle East countries to the west. This is a huge regret in Chinese history. Now, Xu Xingxia certainly cannot allow this regret to continue.
In a near term, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau next to Gansu Town is a huge obstacle. The Ming Dynasty's jurisdiction over the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau was basically belonging to the Ming Dynasty in name, but it was completely independent in essence. Obviously, Xu Xingxia was not satisfied with such a relationship. He must have sent military teams to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Unfortunately, due to the altitude, ordinary military teams could not fight in places like the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Just climbing mountains, I don't know how many people would be exhausted.
"Please come in!" Xu Xingxia nodded and said.
After a while, Bai Xuefei and Gao Yanfei both came in. As the chief and deputy commander of the Tianxiang Army, the two were obviously nervous in front of Xu Xingxia. This tension seemed even more obvious after the White Army defeated the Tatars and Haogu people. There was no way. They felt that Xu Xingxia was becoming more and more powerful.
"Sit down and talk." Xu Xingxia said kindly.
The two sat down properly, without looking sideways, and tried hard to straighten their waists. Since receiving Xu Xingxia's order, they have conducted rigorous training on their appearance. How to walk, stand, and sit, they have almost become conditioned reflexes and can be completed without having to go through their brains.
