Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 41 Short Soldiers

Shanzhu stood coldly in the middle of the road throat, his eyes stared at the front without any emotion, but he knew that this was really a battle of great disparity in strength, and his only advantage was to occupy it first The favorable position at the mouth of the peak, and the enemy has not yet noticed the enemy's situation here.

All the troops have been deployed, and they are in the middle position to resist the enemy's attack. Of course, the main force is the first, second, and third light infantry brigades. At this time, they are quietly lying in ambush in the snow. There should be a big contrast between the clothing and the snow on the ground, but fortunately, there are many exposed rocks in this area, and the color is similar to the color of the soldiers' clothing, so it is difficult for the enemy to find this problem until they get close. The fourth and fifth light infantry brigades are deployed in the bushes on both sides of the peak, and they will use bows and arrows to meet the coming chaos.

Since I fought two battles with the Luobei people, I found that the light cavalry and light infantry of the Luobei people all have bows and arrows. Unlike the imperial army that has a dedicated bow and arrow unit, this is of course related to the quality of nomadic soldiers. They practice riding and archery all year round, and archery has become an indispensable activity in their daily life.

After referring to this characteristic of the Luobei people, I also improved the troops, added archery training to the light infantry and light cavalry, and hired high-ranking soldiers from the Mote and Tubu people with high salaries. Level instructors to train their own soldiers. Fortunately, the common people in the northwest region, due to the complex ethnic composition, are also greatly influenced by the neighboring nomads. Young and middle-aged men are more or less able to ride horses and archery, so I implemented this reform in my subordinate troops Not much difficulty was encountered, and the combat effectiveness of light cavalry and light infantry was further improved.

However, this is a problem in Gao Yue's light infantry regiment, which is dominated by people. These people are born with great strength, but they lack spirituality in operating bows and arrows. No matter how hard the instructors train, they still have little effect. I had to give up this plan.

However, I was also inspired. Since the mountain people are not used to operating bows and arrows, mainly because bows and arrows require long-term training and require high precision, then I just need to equip them with easy-to-operate crossbows and arrows. . However, traditional crossbows are complicated to install and large in size, so they are not suitable for carrying around. I asked the Economic Development Agency and the War Preparations Department to jointly reduce and improve the existing crossbows.

After a long period of trial and error and improvement, a group of young people from the Economic Development Agency finally came up with a preliminary prototype. I call it the easy crossbow to distinguish it from the original strong crossbow. The size of the crossbow is reduced by half compared with the strong crossbow, and it mainly uses the tension of the spring steel sheet and the extension spring as the driving force. The speed has also dropped a lot, and there are gains and losses. At least they have successfully reduced the size of the crossbow bolts to a satisfactory level, and the production process has also been simplified a lot, and the most important thing is that the installation of arrows is more convenient than before. Many, greatly reducing the time between installations, which is a remarkable breakthrough.

I greatly praised this group of young people, and encouraged them not to be limited to the existing achievements, but to make persistent efforts and strive to create better achievements. My encouragement greatly aroused the enthusiasm of this group of young people. One of the leaders said that the current crossbow still has a lot of room for improvement, but it needs a certain amount of time for experimentation, funds, and based on the results obtained in practice. Based on the experience to analyze and improve, over time, we will definitely be able to create more perfect products.

I immediately expressed my support for this project, and decided on the spot that the Department of Finance should allocate special funds to form a research team to study this project. Because I know that in war, when the combat power is similar, the quality of weapons often plays a decisive role.

In view of time constraints, I also request the Combat Readiness Administration to immediately arrange for the production of a batch of crossbows to be quickly equipped with the Gaoyue people of Jinzhou. .

On the originally white field, some black spots began to appear one after another at the end of the horizon. Since the location of Xifengkou is slightly higher than the surrounding, especially the geographical location of the plain in front, the mountain pillars can be clearly seen The movement of the chaos.

Slowly, the black shadows changed from less to more, from blurred to clear, moving quickly towards the Xifengkou.

"It's finally here!" Shanzhu was a little nervous and seemed a little relaxed at the same time. It was the first time he commanded a battle alone. The pressure is also much less, and this time the division head and the main force are still behind, it is estimated that it will take two hours to arrive, and I have to hold on for these two hours.

What should come will always come, it is better to come sooner than later, anyway, he still has to face this **** reality in the end, Shanzhu knows that the real test is coming soon.

The distance of more than two miles was too close, and after a while, the disorderly army formed a loose formation and swarmed in. As the distance got closer and closer, the soldiers who had already been ordered had already taken their positions and entered the ambush area. The entire mountain pass looked the same as usual, only the noisy noise of the rebel soldiers could be heard.

A rebellious army is a rebellious army. Shan Zhu snorted from his nasal cavity. He neither sent out the necessary scouting troops, and the formation of the marching team was chaotic, without any psychological preparations for defense. Even if the regular army was within its own territory, It is impossible to march inside so absurdly, but judging from the number, it is far more than their own troops, and the marching speed is not slow.

The vanguard quickly entered the ambush circle. Shanzhu felt a little regretful. The enemy's team was too long. Due to the limitation of his troops, his ambush circle could only be so large, otherwise It is absolutely possible to defeat this group of chaotic troops in one fell swoop. According to the current situation, the only way to eat his forwards first is to make use of the attack to cause confusion for the enemy. Shan Zhu gradually formed a bold plan in his mind.

As the flags of the flag soldiers changed from rising to rapidly descending, the commanders of each brigade let out a long-suppressed roar from their chests: "Let go!"

The soldiers lying in ambush suddenly rose from the snow, aimed the crossbow in their hands forward and fired. According to the usual drill rules, the first row shoots, the second row prepares, and the third row prepares. The three groups of soldiers stand up and fire in turn, retreat, load arrows, move forward, and shoot. The whole process has been trained countless times in normal times. It looks easy.

Wave after wave of arrows rained down on the unprepared soldiers like a flash flood. With the condescending geographical location, the result was predictable.

Arrows overwhelming the sky and covering the sky struck head-on, and most of the soldiers of the rebel army died before they even realized what was going on. A small number of soldiers with high vigilance, flexible minds and quick reactions knew something was wrong when their heads suddenly popped up in the snow ahead. Some rolled on the ground and some simply hid behind their comrades. Let the bodies of comrades-in-arms around you be your shield.

The originally white snow was immediately soaked in blood, and the screams and wailing of the wounded in the field continued one after another. Many people simply dropped their weapons, turned around and ran back, some of them were immediately shot into honeycombs by the second and third waves of arrows, and some soldiers didn't even dare to lift their heads, shivering behind their shields, and the whole field was completely destroyed. It turned into a **** Shura field.

Standing on a high place and observing Shanzhu, he was not dazzled by the expected victory. He found that although the rebel army had been disrupted, it was only the front, and the Chinese army had already begun to organize defense. I still underestimated the fighting power of the chaos army. At this time, the enemy must not be allowed to organize an effective counterattack, otherwise the enemy who is several times larger than himself will definitely use the superiority in strength to reverse the outcome of this battle.

He quickly made a bold decision that had been brewing in his heart for a long time~IndoMTL.com~ The second, third, fourth and fifth brigades followed me to pursue the enemy, and the first brigade was on standby! "

As soon as the voice fell, Shanzhu waved the huge steel fork in his hand and rushed out of the trench first. Under the leadership of the officer, the soldiers were like tigers descending the mountain, setting off bursts of whirlwind, roaring like thunder, and charging towards the bewildered army. The soldiers rushed. The rebel soldiers who had just recovered from the rain of arrows could no longer withstand the charge of the condescending troops, turned their heads and fled towards their rear. This is what Shan Zhu wanted. He led the troops to chase and kill the trailing rebel soldiers while controlling the speed of the pursuit, so that the rebel soldiers could always feel the pressure of chasing and killing. The torrent rushed from slow to fast towards the main force of the rear army of the rebellious army.

When the front army suffered a blow to the head and was beaten dizzy, Dubuke and Yan Tong, the coaches of the rear army, hadn't reacted yet, but they immediately understood that they had encountered an ambush. The Chinese army gave orders, but first ordered the main rear army to immediately form a battle formation and distance themselves from the Chinese army.

But the opponent didn't give him much time. When the enemy army smashed the front army like a broken bamboo and directly disrupted the position of the central army, he knew that the situation was irreversible. After all, he knew that compared with the regular army, no matter what Whether it is the combat effectiveness of individual soldiers or the overall organization and morale, it is not the same, let alone in this situation.

When Dubuke was still yelling at the first company for killing two officers who fled, he decisively ordered the formation of the supervisory team to separate the central army from the rear army, and let the supervisory team drive the central army that had not yet completely collapsed. The army tried to delay the enemy's attack speed as much as possible, and on the other hand, ordered the main rear army to maintain its formation and retreat at a uniform speed. This move achieved excellent results, and Shanzhu's plan to use surprise to defeat the rebellion army in one fell swoop failed to be fully successful.
