Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 99 Guerrilla (2)
"It's very simple. Didn't the corps commander ask us to kill the enemy's vital force as much as possible, hit the opponent's morale, and slow down the enemy's marching speed? Now it seems that it is not realistic to effectively kill the enemy's vital force. To do this, We may pay a lot of losses, but it is not difficult to hit the opponent's morale and slow down the marching speed." The bald-browed man smiled sinisterly.
"Oh? How to do it?"
A shrill police whistle sounded suddenly, followed by a thunderous sound of horseshoes from the right side. The yellow dust all over the sky made it difficult to discern how many enemy troops were attacking. , except for a little panic at the beginning, the advancing Poole army quickly stabilized. Facing the incoming cavalry, the irregular crane wing attack formation was launched, and Poole's heavy infantry marched steadily forward with neat steps. , the thick two wings came in a semi-surrounding shape, and the Poole cavalry who received the warning from the front and rear also gathered together from both ends at the fastest speed, hoping to intercept this enemy cavalry who dared to stroke the tiger's beard, It was eliminated in the infantry encirclement that had formed a semi-arc.
However, although the number of incoming cavalry was not large, the leader was extremely cunning. When approaching the infantry's advance line, these nomadic cavalry fully demonstrated their riding and shooting skills on horseback, wave after wave The rain of arrows came head-on, and it seemed that the size of the opponent was only a Ranger of the Thousand Cavalry, but under the command of the leader, they folded and launched successively, forming three consecutive waves of arrow rain, and when Poole soldiers braved the arrow rain to attack When advancing forcefully, the enemy cavalry who had achieved their goal had already rolled up a cloud of yellow dust in front of the infantry and turned away, but at this time the Poole cavalry who received the warning were still a few miles away.
Looking at the Western Border Rangers leaving, Poole's leading general was puzzled. What is the enemy's purpose in launching such an attack? Is it just to slow down the marching speed of one's own side? But this kind of sneak attack may be effective for the first time. If it is repeated several times, not only will it not have much effect, but it is also likely to be blocked by the cavalry intercepted by one's own side. This small-scale cavalry, as long as the infantry arrives, If it can be completely strangled in less than an hour, then the enemy will lose nothing.
Just when Poole's army was about to launch an attack, in another area, Poole's army was attacked by two rangers at the same time. The enemy's methods were very despicable. When Fang was paying attention, another main force of cavalry launched an attack not far away. Due to the successive attacks in several places, the surrounding cavalry responsible for supporting were transferred away, and the attention of the main general was also attracted to the troops attacked earlier. At this point, no one would have thought that the first few groups of cavalry were covering for the last main force, and that the last group was the real killing move. The first few surprise attack troops were only a containment force of about 1,000 people, but the last one was an assault force of as many as 5,000 people. Although 5,000 people was insignificant compared to the entire Poole army, it was the most powerful in a short period of time. Internally applied to a certain point, the lethality is still considerable.
When a whole group of Tubu cavalry charged with their maces and rushed at the Poole army that had just had time to form a tight formation, this kind of story was only staged for the first time, and this example may continue to happen in the future , Maybe it won't happen, everything depends on how vigilant and adaptable the Poole people are.
The mace used by the Tubu cavalry in close combat is much heavier than the saber used by the Mott cavalry. From this point of view, they are more like heavy cavalry. In comparison, but their lethality against heavy infantry is stronger than the damage caused by the saber.
Several thousand Tubu cavalry broke into the defensive formation of the Pur people, stirring up waves of blood. After all, the formation is not as tight as the formation formed by the formal deployment of troops. Tubu cavalry's forced breakthrough has paid off. It can no longer play its protective role, and the chaotic situation continues until the cavalry who understand from both ends arrive and arrive for reinforcements. It's just that the Tubu people have already obtained what they want from this chaos, and fled away, leaving What followed was a mess and a miserable scene.
This was just the first encounter of the Pur people on the way of marching in the clouds. Almost all Tubu cavalry who changed their tactics followed this tactic, and kept sending small groups of cavalry to harass them. A pack of wolves usually jumps up and bites, and when the situation is not good, they run away and dodge others. The main force ambushing at the side is even more elusive, not moving easily, but not moving. The Tubu cavalry also took turns to harass the Puer camp, causing the Puer camp to be policed overnight, disturbing the Puer people's sleep, and seriously shaking the Puer people's military spirit and morale.
In order to ensure the safety of his troops, Kunbo also had to slow down, strengthen the protection of the two wings, and build a thick defensive circle. In the early stage of the victory, the rangers in the western borders succeeded in succession, and in the later stage, Poole's side, which was prepared, also gave full play to the method of cavalry and infantry teaming up to attack, and sometimes achieved gains, but it was originally a flat journey that could be crossed in three to five days. It became a **** journey with just over half of the journey in a week.
The wolf pack tactics of the Rangers in the Western Border not only greatly slowed down the marching speed of Poole's army, but also seriously dampened the morale of Poole's officers and soldiers. It took more than 300 miles and only half of it in a week. A little more, the average daily speed is less than forty miles, and the harassment that comes almost every night makes the people of Puer equally exhausted. Many soldiers can't even adapt to this high-intensity harassment tactic, and fall off their horses during the march during the day Falls and injuries happened from time to time, which made Kunbo a headache.
Although such harassment tactics did not actually cause much damage to the army's effective strength, the number of soldiers lost in a week did not exceed 7,000, and a considerable part was caused by the first raid. The subsequent attacks by the Xinjiang cavalry could hardly pose a major threat, but Kunbo knew that such a raid had already cast a shadow over the morale of the army, and the psychological advantage over the Tanghe army was of course gone. In fact, just one march has already ended up in such a situation, and it is not known how many tricks the Xijiang side will show up in the real battle.
Just as the nomadic cavalry in the western borders showed their talents on the land in the clouds, the entire battlefield continued to roll forward like a rotating roulette, and every time it was crushed, it would arouse countless shouts and wailing.
On February 8, 699 in the mainland, the First Army Corps in Western Xinjiang was ordered to advance with the whole army. Liang Chongxin and Lei De, the new commander of the Jielock Guard Corps, led 30,000 guard troops to the vicinity of Fanlin, and at this time they were stationed. Jiama's Terok National Defense Army also dispatched the entire army to hand over the Jiama defense to the South Jielock Front Army. More than 180,000 coalition troops spread out in a semi-arc, pressing towards Fan Lin with a pace that would shake the ground, even Fan Lin The Kaman officers and soldiers in Lincheng felt the suffocating pressure enough to destroy everything.
Before that, on February 7th, the commander in chief of the southern front, Kamapov, had already completed the siege of Qinghefu City, and compressed the encirclement below Qinghefu City. An army of 160,000 troops gathered around Qinghefu City. The thick battle cloud is enough to drive any ordinary person who has never experienced a battle insane. On February 8th, the two divisions of the Third Army's follow-up reinforcements arrived in Qinghe, and Kamapov also made a big move, putting another cavalry regiment assigned to him by Bo Jinchen into the blocking battle in the cloud, and Withdrawing a division of the Nanjie Locke Corps back to Qinghe Fucheng, they were determined to break the boat and complete the complete annihilation of the Qinghe Kaman army.
"Wenxiu, this time old Ka is going to take the lead from you. Don't be so wronged that you can't eat." The heavy pressure and the busy days made Kamapov's black face even worse. The dark is bright, but people are in good spirits on happy occasions~IndoMTL.com~ Tiredness is exhaustion, but the spirit is extremely healthy, seeing old friends finally arrive.
"Okay, you old card, grab the mission of our third army, use our third army, and make sarcastic remarks at this time, aren't you a poor person?" On the top of the kang, the Military Affairs Administration did not arrange for him to participate in this battle, but the main force of the Third Army has been withdrawn, leaving only one division to sit in Hejian as a symbol, but given the current situation in the Central Plains, it is not worth it. Worried, Cui Wenxiu simply confessed, said hello to the Military Affairs Department, and quietly followed the army to the Qinghe City, also wanting to breathe in the atmosphere of the great battle.
"Hey, it's not because of my old card. Our Fifth Army has never really won a big battle except for the First Division. It is not as good as your Third Army in the Western Regions and India. Ann, you should take pity on us, let us try something new." Kamapov rolled his eyelids, replied with a playful smile, and sat on the kang.
Seeing her old friend so relaxed, Cui Wenxiu let go of most of her heart. In such a large-scale battle, as a soldier in her life, she might only encounter it once or twice. But Cui Wenxiu also knows that there are considerations above. Except for the first division of the Fifth Army, which is regarded as an elite soldier, only the second division can still be seen. The other three divisions have not experienced baptism. The new army, the army must go through the cruel baptism of iron and blood, which has always been required by His Royal Highness King Qin. His Highness King Qin's lofty ambitions are beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Cui Wenxiu can only get a glimpse of it. There are still more battles to be fought in the future. He also saw a lot. On the contrary, my old friend has always been prudent, so confident, he must have made a plan long ago.
