Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 5 Collapse
Just as the Imperial Command was summing up and re-arranging the deployment of troops, the opposite Luobei camp was also having heated discussions about the battle, but the atmosphere here was much more relaxed than that of the Empire. "Kurdo, you are not mean enough. You have eaten up an entire division of the enemy by yourself, and you still want to rob me. My brothers have objections." Ge Ya half-jokingly complained about Kurdo.
"That's what the situation requires. If you don't defeat them quickly, when their reinforcements arrive, you won't be able to eat even if you want to." Infected.
"Thanks to Haxian this time, if he hadn't taken the risk of using our infantry to contain the enemy's heavy infantry, Kurdo and I would not have succeeded so easily. Lemi is also a good kid, the first time Leading so many troops into battle, you can firmly contain the enemy, and you have eliminated a lot of them, and your own losses are very small." Ge Ya smiled and praised Ha Xian and his deputy, "Don't put gold on my face, this It’s all arranged properly by the general, not to mention that the enemy will not win even if they want to adjust.” Ha Xian said with a smile. While the three were happily talking about the course of the battle, Tu Da seemed a little preoccupied. The three of them quickly discovered this, calmed down, and there was a moment of silence in the big tent.
"General, you seem to have something on your mind?" Ge Ya broke the silence.
"Oh, I think the victory in this battle is a good thing, but it also has some side effects!" Tu Da said solemnly.
"Huh? Can the general explain it to us?" Kurdo was also a little curious.
"I am worried that the enemy will rearrange their troops after this failure. If they are too conservative and deploy their heavy infantry flexibly, they will not be able to hold on. No matter how many enemies we can destroy, there are still 180,000 enemies left , we will lose a lot of ourselves, and time will be delayed, so our mission to go south will be considered a failure." The three of them fell silent immediately, yes, even if we can kill all the enemies, as the saying goes, Killing 3,000 people and injuring 800, your own troops will inevitably suffer great losses. If the opponent adopts the method of sticking to the defense, the casualties of your own troops will definitely not be small, not to mention the delay. The tribal people in the territory will also sit and wait to die. This result is absolutely unacceptable. For a moment, the only sound left in the big tent was the sound of the dancing flames on the torches.
"General, is there nothing we can do?" The impatient Haxian couldn't help it.
Seeing that the three of them were a little anxious, Tu Da patted the three of them on the shoulders, "Don't be discouraged, people came up with the solution. As the Duke of the Tanghe Empire, Situ Mingzhi must not be reconciled to this Go back in disgrace and explain to his brother that he will definitely do everything he can to get a satisfactory ending. We just want to use his mentality and force him to find our loopholes in every possible way. A beautiful fantasy, designing a "loophole" for us, making him think that he has caught our tail, and in the end he will do his tricks."
"It seems that the general has already made up his mind." Ge Ya shouted happily, "It made me worry for nothing."
"It's just a preliminary idea. As for whether it will succeed, it depends on whether Situ Mingzhi cooperates. From tomorrow, the three of you and your lieutenant will lead all the heavy cavalry and light cavalry and there are still 40,000 The infantry takes turns attacking the enemy's left and right flanks, pay attention to the method of attack, don't attack violently, take advantage of the maneuverability of our light cavalry to take advantage of the opportunity to tear apart the enemy's infantry defense line, and the heavy cavalry should seize the opportunity to break through, but don't love to fight. "
"Isn't the main camp too empty? If the enemy raids the main camp, our entire army may be defeated!" The three of them shouted in unison, "I just want the enemy to find that our main camp is empty, and let the enemy find that our main camp is empty. The enemy thinks that we are already arrogant, so that they can take advantage of it, otherwise, how can we lure the snake out of the hole?"
"But the risk is too great." Kurdo was still a little worried.
"I can't bear to let the child not be able to trap the wolf. What's more, I don't think the enemy will act rashly in a few days. Although Situ Mingzhi is very happy, but after all, it is related to the whole situation of the battle. He does not dare to act rashly. He must be careful. Only by observing and observing will we make a decision. At that time, we will take corresponding countermeasures." Tu Da encouraged the three of them with confidence.
After the three left, Tu Da ordered the guards to call a man in plain clothes, "I don't know what orders the general has for calling his subordinates?"
"Jochi, from tomorrow night onwards, you will personally bring your men to lurk near the enemy's main camp, and monitor the enemy's troop movements throughout the night, especially the enemy's central camp. , report directly to me immediately, without any mistakes. Don’t startle the snakes.”
"Yes, General." The man in casual clothes showed excitement in his eyes, and the figure disappeared into the tent in a flash.
For the next three days, the Luobei sent out large armies to attack the two wings of the main camp of the imperial army in turn. They made full use of the high mobility of their own light cavalry to harass around the left and right wings of the imperial army. Or if there is a loophole, the armored cavalry following behind will swarm up, and the infantry will attract the main force of the empire from the front. However, since the imperial army was also prepared for this, the two wings were enriched with heavy infantry, and their defense capabilities were greatly enhanced. Therefore, although their own losses were large, the casualties caused to the Luobei cavalry were not small.
On the evening of October 7th, the main tent of the Imperial Chinese Army was heavily guarded, and no one was allowed to approach it five meters away from the tent. An emergency military meeting is going on in the tent, "According to our careful observation from various aspects, the enemy has dispatched almost all of its troops to besiege us every day for the past three days, which puts a lot of pressure on our two wings, and they have only 20,000 people left behind. The light infantry on the left and right, and the 40,000 infantry are mainly deployed in front of us, and the formation seems a bit loose, probably because we don’t dare to fight. In view of the current situation, I think it is necessary to change the current combat plan.” Situ Ming Zhi is ambitiously making combat arrangements in person, "I ordered that the two heavy infantry divisions of the Chinese army each draw one regiment to strengthen the defense on the left and right wings, and draw two each from the fourth light infantry division of the third army regiment of the reserve team. The regiment joined the two-wing defense respectively, and transferred all the cavalry regiments from the 1st Heavy Cavalry Division of the Third Army and the two divisions of the City Guards Regiment to the central army, allowing the infantry to make room, and wait for the enemy at dawn tomorrow. When the main force attacked our two wings, I personally led the cavalry of the Chinese army to attack the enemy's main camp. All troop movements were restricted to be completed secretly after midnight tonight."
"My lord, isn't it a bit too risky to do this?" Singer didn't want to go against Situ Mingzhi's enthusiasm, but such an arrangement was a bit rash. Once he was ambushed by the enemy, the consequences would be disastrous. The commander-in-chief may also fall to the ground, so he had to remind him.
"Needless to say, I have carefully observed the enemy's layout, and the outcome depends on it." Situ Mingzhi also had something hard to say. At the beginning, he boasted that he went to Haikou, but now he has lost his troops. Explain to the ministers of the DPRK and China. In addition, I did observe and analyze the enemy's dynamics carefully for several days in a row, and it should not be a trap, so I made up my mind.
Outside the imperial army camp. Dense torches illuminated a radius of tens of meters outside the fence like daylight. Shuchi and his companions, who were lurking by the Juma ditch under the fence, were enduring the bites of mosquitoes and watching the movement in the camp motionless. "There seems to be some movement." After confirming that the enemy was making military adjustments overnight, Jochi untied the cloth bag he had prepared, and a yellow sheep that is common in the local area broke free and rushed out, immediately attracting the attention of the guards on the sentry tower. The sentinel's attention, taking advantage of the short time when the sentry turned his attention to the gazelle, Jochi and his companions quickly left the warning area by performing the stealth technique.
"Oh? So the enemy is mobilizing large-scale troops overnight?" Although it was midnight, Tu Da was still full of energy, "Yes, my subordinates can be sure that a large number of infantry in their central army have been mobilized Let’s go, and a large number of cavalry are stationed.” Jochi replied affirmatively. "Okay, Jochi, you have done a great job this time, go down and rest first." After Jochi left, Tu Da couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and stood up, "The fish finally got the bait."
"Come here! Call Kuerdo, Geya, and Ha to come to my tent right away."
As soon as the day dawned, the Luobei cavalry swarmed out like a few days ago, and launched an attack on the two wings of the main camp of the empire. "Brothers, the main force of the enemy has been pinned down by the troops on our two wings. The ones ahead are only tens of thousands of light infantry who don't know how to live or die. You are the pride of the empire. If you want to get promoted and get rich, follow me. The enemy is in the main camp!" After a deafening roar, more than 40,000 imperial cavalry were dispatched, and the Luobei infantry who defended the front were obviously a little lax. Seeing the enemy's phalanx disintegrating under his own impact, Situ Mingzhi swept away the sulking of the previous few days, but he was not satisfied. His goal was to destroy the enemy's main camp and win the battle.
When the commanders of the defensive troops on the two wings of the empire realized that the enemy attacking today was obviously not as strong as in the past, and when they felt something was wrong and reported to the headquarters, it was already too late. At this time, Tu Mingzhi of the Zhenguo Company was leading an army of 40,000 to the enemy's main camp. The sparse bows and arrows could not stop the imperial cavalry's charge. After a loud "bang", the closed gate and the nearby The defensive fence was knocked down, and the excited imperial cavalry rushed in like a tide. However, the imperial cavalry who were the first to charge immediately noticed the abnormality of the situation. There were hardly a few enemy soldiers in the huge barracks, there were many haystacks scattered around, and even a few tents were empty, "It's over! Hit by an ambush!" The panicked cavalry hurriedly wanted to retreat, and collided with the comrades who poured in later, and the situation was chaotic. Seeing this scene, Situ Mingzhi was stunned, not knowing what to do. Well, it was only when the accompanying general reminded me that I woke up like a dream, and quickly ordered to retreat, but it was already too late.
The rockets in the sky were like Hell urging them to die, and quickly ignited the haystacks piled up everywhere. For a while, flames soared, thick smoke billowed, and the chaotic imperial cavalry were like headless chickens, huddled together and trampled on each other , Countless casualties. After finally escaping from the enemy's camp, before they could take a breath, they lay in ambush. The main cavalry of Luobei, who had been waiting in full force, rushed up from both sides unstoppably. , Situ Mingzhi tried his best to break out under the protection of his subordinates, and led the remnants to flee in the direction of his main camp. The Luobei cavalry pursued closely, and Situ Mingzhi, who was in a hurry, made an irreparable mistake. In his haste, he led the troops that broke out of the encirclement and fled straight back to the main camp of the Chinese army, which caused an irreparable disaster. sexual consequences. The fleeing cavalry smashed the left-behind heavy infantry camp, which still had certain defensive capabilities, to pieces. Under the onslaught of the following Luobei cavalry, the front line of defense quickly collapsed, killing the red-eyed Luobei cavalry Taking advantage of the trend to launch an attack on the two wings of the imperial army, the two defensive lines of the imperial army, which were resisting the frontal attack, were attacked from the rear and then collapsed after only a few minutes~IndoMTL.com~ At this point, the imperial defense line completely collapsed, announcing the battle of the empire's western expedition utter failure.
With the winning chance in hand, Tu Da ordered the two generals Kurdo and Geya to lead the main cavalry to continue the pursuit, not to give the enemy a chance to breathe. The disbanded and organized troops, and those stragglers who have lost their combat effectiveness, no matter how many there are, will be ignored, and left to Ha, who led the infantry to come later, to deal with it first. On the one hand, he ordered Hasian to lead 30,000 infantry to follow up quickly. The main task was to **** the food, grass and livestock that were urgently needed in the territory, and wipe out the remaining scattered imperial troops by the way. Go home first. He believed that after this battle, no force in this area could stop his men from conquering. He even imagined that in the near future, this place would become his own territory, a paradise for the Luobei people. Filled with the joy of victory, and thinking about how much wealth he would exchange for these captives, Tu Da set off on his way home.
No one would have expected that the great victory of the Luobei people and the disastrous defeat of the empire would provide a good opportunity for the rise of a generation of heroes, an empire, and a dynasty. Years later, historians still debate the extent to which this war played a role in the creation of the glorious empire. But one thing is certain, it was this battle that caused a short-term power vacuum in this area. conditions are created. However, there are also many imperial historians who believe that with His Majesty's ambition and intelligence, his rise is only a matter of time, and this war only accelerated His Majesty's progress towards becoming the king of the mainland.
