Aspirations for Nation and Beauty Chapter 6: Creating the first

It should be said that Qi Hong's caution did bring some luck to the First Division. The dense iron disease bought him some time. When a division rushed towards his own division, Qi Hong knew that he might have encountered the only heavy cavalry division in Western Xinjiang. For this heavy cavalry division, the head of the legion specifically reminded a group of people before leaving that they must maintain a high degree of vigilance, especially after entering the plain area. This is the most suitable stage for the heavy cavalry division to perform. In addition to sending enough scouts to maintain quick response capabilities, the only help the legion gave to the three forward divisions was probably these barbed wire bars.

This kind of rope fence that can be rolled up can be released and erected in a short time. The triangular thick wooden frame is fixed with iron hooks and placed along the infantry defense line. It is a deadly killer, even if it encounters heavy cavalry, it can play a very effective delay. It is not that the northern army has not studied the rapid development of military power in western Xinjiang, especially after Li Wufeng gained the support of the nomads, the cavalry strength, especially the light cavalry strength, has soared, which once ate the Liberians in the north and their own side. After suffering enough, it has become an urgent task for the Northern Army to study how to deal with these nomadic cavalry strategies and means.

After brainstorming, the army and some workshops cooperated to finally produce this seemingly crude product, but after testing it is quite effective, especially for light cavalry. The biggest difference from the usual Luyan and Juma fences is that it is easy to retract and deploy, and the deployment time is short. Enough skilled personnel can erect two rope fences on a defense line of more than 1,000 meters in front of a division within ten minutes, and there is no blank belt. , It can be reused after the war is over, which makes the northern army feel like a treasure, and under the personal urging of Situ Tai, the military supply department is fully engaged in production. The Northern Army also began to equip in large quantities. The iron smelting workshops in the entire Yanyun County were mobilized to create such elastic iron ribbons and caltrops, and of course this defensive weapon was first equipped to the front-line northern army.

Now is the time for such a tool to come into play. When he learned that it might be the third heavy cavalry division of the Third Western Xinjiang Army Corps, Qi Hong even spared no expense to adjust the position of the division and set up all the ropes, forming three lines in front of his own line of defense. Mesh bar section. In order to deal with the heavy cavalry in Xijiang, a brigade of javelin soldiers also quickly entered the position. It was only at this time that Qi Hong realized that a brigade of javelin soldiers was really thin, but it was unlikely that a division like his own would be able to do so because of the fact that the first javelin soldiers in Xijiang There is a heavy cavalry division in the Three Army Corps and too many spearmen, so now it can only be said that it is better than nothing.

Qi Hong had already sent out the urgent request for help from the regiment headquarters in the rear after confirming that they were heavy cavalry from Western Xinjiang. The best way to deal with heavy cavalry is light cavalry besides heavy infantry. Only light cavalry can survive the entanglement. To suppress the power of the heavy cavalry, Qi Hong's division only had two heavy infantry brigades that were usually used for decoration. But now it has almost become a priceless treasure all of a sudden, but the heavy infantry themselves feel that they are like livestock being driven to the slaughterhouse. Two brigades of heavy infantry with less than 2,000 people want to compete with a division of heavy cavalry. Even if you think about it with your feet, you know what effect it will have. Even with Na Lao Shizi Suolan, it seems impossible to change the result, at least their fate is doomed.

Mao Jin's Iron Armored Cavalry Division rolled to the ground and rolled up waves of yellow dust. The weight of hundreds of catties made each horse like a mobile fortress, dark and dark, the shaking of the iron leaf armor and the trembling of the horse armor The sound of the crash is enough to send any infantry fighter down the drain. The breathing and neighing of a healthy horse is like the call of the king of Hades. The cavalry spears over three meters are pushed forward to form a dense forest of thorns. The unstoppable black torrent sweeps, and everything will be smashed before it.

Mao Jin looked at the scene in front of him with some excitement, but he did not expect that his own army would encounter this kind of barbed wire fence that he had never seen before, although he had heard that the Northern Army was equipped with a kind of countermeasure The equipment of the light cavalry is shaped like a fence, but even the fence cannot stop the front of the cavalry, but this time Mao Jin seems to have encountered some trouble.

The iron armored cavalry rushed forward only to find out what was blocking them. Ribbons are intertwined, and the only way to break through these barriers seems to be to sweep these things away.

Perhaps the spear is the most advantageous attack weapon, but it is not so practical for these obstacles. The armored cavalry are forced to sweep the spears in an attempt to sweep away or smash these obstacles. This effort is obviously ineffective Well, although it was hit by a huge impact and moved around, the stability of this triangle horse post is very good, and it can still play its role well if it is changed in a different position. changed, but still firmly blocked in front of the cavalry.

The offensive of the heavy cavalry was effectively contained, and the javelin soldiers of the First Division of the Twelfth Legion began to go crazy. But after all, this is a weapon that can cause damage to heavy armored cavalry. Compared with those arrow rains that are like nowhere to scratch, the lethality of this weapon is still much stronger. At this time, the heavy armored cavalry was in an unprecedented predicament, but it was finally a troop that had experienced the **** battle in Beiyuan. Mao Jin led the soldiers to straddle the cavalry spears diagonally, and then swung the waist knife in his hand to chop the not very strong iron cavalry. Ribbons, these things are very tough in the face of spears, but they are much weaker in front of steel knives. They only need to be chopped violently, and this kind of ribbon will soon break and lose its effect.

But even so, the damage caused to Mao Jin's heavy cavalry is huge, the entire formation is disrupted, and the attack process is delayed. The greatest power of the heavy cavalry is the impact brought by its speed plus strength , but this kind of sash effectively reduces the impact of the armored cavalry. Fortunately, Mao Jin, who is thick and thin, can be regarded as a reserve. Here, a reserve team of the alliance fully interprets the classic magic of the phrase "show your skills in times of crisis". When Mao Jin ordered the flag officer to wave the flag to signal the reserve team When it was possible to charge, the heavy armored cavalry had to retreat to the two wings after destroying most of the slings. Only after maintaining a certain distance and regrouping to launch an attack, could the best impact effect be obtained. In the current situation that this division has no other reinforcements, Mao Jin would rather sacrifice some time to obtain the best results.

I'm afraid even Mao Jin himself didn't realize how fragile the opponent's defense line is except for this barbed wire fence. The two brigades of heavy infantry acted as the main force, but he knew that he was simply dying After that, the morale of the heavy cavalry of these two brigades seemed low, and they did not play the role of the heavy infantry as the most powerful opponent of the armored cavalry. The armored cavalry regiment only used one charge to defeat the main defensive heavy infantry group. Smashed and smashed, the collapse of the heavy infantry defense group even affected the entire defense line. The heavy cavalry regiment took advantage of the momentum and swept to the left, completely smashing the left wing defense line that was caught off guard. Mao Jin led the heavy armored cavalry to take the opportunity to rush in from the left flank, and the entire First Division's front line became fragmented, and it was almost impossible to recover.

No one thought that the performance of the heavy infantry, which had placed high hopes before, was so poor, and even the performance of the light infantry was far inferior. So much so that this battle has been used in the political textbooks of many military academies, that is, the first factor that determines the outcome of a war is always people, and the basic training and fighting spirit of soldiers are enough to determine a war~IndoMTL.com~And the first division The soldiers of the two heavy infantry brigades are almost all from the children of the wealthy peasant class in the East China Sea. The salary and various subsidies of the heavy infantry are much higher than that of the light infantry. It has never been imagined that it will play such an important role in this war. Facing the powerful enemy and the threat of death, they couldn't bear this kind of pressure at all, and their spirits collapsed before the battle, so that Qi Hong, the head of the first division after the war, had to admit that his understanding of the arms was too much. The complete failure of this war, although he also admitted that he might fail, he firmly believed that he could fail more brilliantly.

Compared to the overwhelming momentum of the front and left wings, Qi Hong, the commander of the First Division, was on the right wing, which seemed to be much tougher. The defeat was inevitable, but he believed that he needed to safeguard the honor of the First Division. He adjusted the defense line in time and stood on the front line himself, which greatly boosted morale. The few remaining barbed wire thorns were scattered in front of the formation, and they could no longer be connected together, but they could finally bring some obstacles to the opponent.

There was no suspense in the second half of the battle. Although Qi Hong went into battle in person, the result of the battle could not be changed. The disparity in power made the second half of the battle come to an end in less than an hour. Qi Hong was seriously injured and captured. Less than 3,000 people from the entire First Division were captured, and the rest died in the battle.
