Thirty-nine bosses, someone grabs the monster!
Thirty-ninety boss, someone is grabbing the monster!
I've been in good shape these past two days, so here's another 5,000-word update, haha.
-
To attack the opponent's 10,000-strong formation with only six to seven hundred men and try to capture the opponent's general may seem exaggerated in the eyes of soldiers of this era, but in the eyes of the current Qiongzhou Army, it is perfectly normal - after these days of fighting
, both sides have figured out each other's strength. Based on the comparison of firepower between the Qiongzhou Army and the rebels, the one to twenty numerical gap between the two sides is not enough to make up for the huge generation difference in weapons.
"This plan is feasible, but the casualties of the troops may increase. Moreover, strategically speaking, we only need to hold the intersection, and we do not necessarily have to pursue the annihilation of the enemy."
Pang Yu hesitated and said that until now, the Qiongzhou Army's results have far exceeded the goals set by the committee. The Shandong Rebels were almost defeated by them alone. This was actually a matter of trying their best at the military council.
Situation to avoid - In this way, the Ming court will inevitably overestimate their power, and they may be subject to more suppression and suspicion in the future.
In fact, it was enough to take down Dengzhou. It was only because there were too few troops here and too many surrendered rebels that they had to take the initiative to attack Huang County and isolate the battlefield from Dengzhou Prefecture. As for this,
It can be said that it was a last resort to defeat the main force of the rebels - from a strategic point of view, Qiong Haijun should not have achieved this feat.
Therefore, war is never a matter that can be decided by one party alone. Even with the military superiority of the Qiong Navy over the rebels, once it enters the battlefield, it has to adjust at any time according to the situation and take many involuntary actions.
.
In the two battles in the past few days, the ammunition consumption and casualties here have far exceeded expectations, but this is only an internal matter of its own. But if Beiwei brings the rebel leader to a boil again - he can definitely do it with the reinforced battalion in front of him.
——But not even a morsel of soup was left for the Ming Dynasty's authentic counter-rebellion force-Shandong camp, which can easily arouse jealousy. When the time comes, the reinforcements from Liaodong, Sichuan and other places will definitely not give up, even if they make a wasted trip
Qiong Haijun never paid attention to the officials of the Ming Dynasty, so this lawsuit was not easy to fight after all.
Pang Yu explained his worries to Beiwei, but then he saw a wry smile from Aosayan - it seemed that he had said the same words before, but it obviously had no effect.
Sure enough, Beiwei refuted Pang Yu's argument in just a few sentences-presumably this is how he dealt with Aosayan just now.
"Are we talking about strategy now? Staff Pang, are you so sure that we can hold the line of defense after retreating? The opponent's tactics are also very obvious now, which is to keep driving some cannon fodder over to waste our ammunition. If we keep hiding behind the line of defense,
How long can our artillery shells and rockets last if they are passively beaten and left to their own devices? Are you sure we can exhaust their manpower with firepower?"
Pang Yu fell silent. He has always been very confident in the overall strategic layout, but when it comes to specific battle situations and tactical judgments, of course Bei Lai, a professional soldier, is more experienced. What's more, Bei Lai is the leader of this unit.
Deputy Commander, when Jie Xi is away, he has the final say.
"Okay then, just follow your plan. But you need to send someone to inform Lao Jie and Lao Ma. The rocket launchers from behind will still be able to provide support."
He hurriedly wrote a note and sent the soldier Qian Xiaomao back to deliver the letter, but Pang Yu stayed on. At least he had an entire security squad on hand, which could provide considerable firepower. Bei Lai did not hesitate and continued to arrange Hu Kai and Chen Tian.
Or one of Xu Lei's three company commanders took turns leading the charge, pretending to be fooled by the enemy, and slowly pulled the entire battalion to the position the rebels wanted - which was also the decisive battle they fancied.
area.
After crossing the hillside again, they were no longer visible from the main rear position, so the artillery support behind them suddenly became sparse, and even rockets with sufficient range gradually stopped firing - Lao Ma and the others should have been informed that this
At that time, they must have been installing twenty rounds of ammunition on both launchers. After receiving the guidance of the signal flares ahead, they fired a salvo to cover the area.
Seeing that the yin* strategy was working, the rebels no longer sent cannon fodder to die. Several regular troops surrounded them from all directions. However, out of fear of the Qiongzhou Army's artillery, they still acted very carefully.
The distances are very scattered, and the distance between people in the queue is also very far. At the same time, the movement speed is very slow, as if the situation is not good and they will run away.
On the contrary, the main elite force, which gathered the main generals of the rebels and had the largest number, strode straight towards Qiong Haijun without dodging or dodging, while Bei Latitude also directed its troops to meet them. It seemed that the two armies had reached an agreement.
There is a tacit understanding: Don't use that cheating artillery anymore, and we don't need garbage soldiers to come up and disgust people. Let's fight against the generals and fight hard like this.
Of course, Beiwei has never been the kind of orthodox soldier who would fight to the death with the enemy. This can be seen from the fact that for the first time, he held not a sniper rifle but a flare gun in his hand - several flares were stuffed in it.
After the sequential launch, it was clearly used to report the position and distance to Ma Qianshan. The rebels had only experienced a salvo of rockets a few days ago, but it was only within visual range. The bombings outside visual range were all piecemeal.
Broken, at most it shows that the range of the Qiongzhou Army's rockets here is very long, but it does not prove that they have the ability to attack accurately beyond visual range - as for Geng Zhongming's tragedy? That is a small probability event.
But after today, the rebels will surely have a better understanding of Qiong Haijun's firearms strength, but that will come at a considerable price. This cannot be said to be careless on the part of the rebels - if they had made bold guesses from the beginning
The firepower delivery capability here can actually cover more than ten miles away, and the shells can be accurately dropped on the target without seeing anyone. Then there is no need to fight this battle at all, and the right way is to escape as soon as possible.
Even if they only use infantry, they are confident to bulldoze the opponent. However, after the opponent has learned about the intensity of the Qiongzhou Army’s firepower, they dare to come forward in such a big way. It is likely that they have some secret means. But this side doesn’t care - let it go
There are thousands of clever ideas, and I have pushed them all the way. This principle is not only applicable in strategy, but also in tactics. Whatever tactics the rebels use, they always have to rely on people to implement them, and in the face of steel and gunpowder, the human body
But it is very fragile.
It's just that neither side's "secret moves" could be used because they failed to engage in a fight - just as the two armies were ramming towards each other in a decisive battle, a huge commotion suddenly sounded from their side.
A rebel division was suddenly attacked from behind - and was trampled by a large group of cavalry.
——I saw countless defeated soldiers holding their heads and protecting their faces, crying and shouting, running out from behind a hillside, like an ant nest that had been poured with boiling water. The back of the mountain ridge was blocked by miscellaneous trees and bushes, and no clues could be seen for a while, but
You can hear people shouting and horses neighing, especially the sound of countless horses galloping and trampling the earth, which is almost loud.
That rebel army was one of the cannon fodder troops that were sent to die to consume the ammunition here. They definitely didn't have much combat effectiveness, but the Qiong Navy did not deal with them seriously. These people pretended to attack, and the Qiong Navy only responded perfunctorily.
A few rounds of gunfire to scare people away will do the trick. This is the so-called reverse elimination - those brave people who rushed forward with their necks in a straight line are now lying on the ground, and the rest are just cheaters and scoundrels.
Those who are timid and afraid of death can survive.
However, the rebels have good battlefield control capabilities, or they are well prepared - these people did not disperse after being defeated, but were organized and rebuilt their positions in the rear. The rebels seemed to be interested in this kind of work of collecting cannon fodder.
He was very skilled, and specially arranged a group of strong combat supervisors to be scattered around the battlefield. These people did not go forward to fight, but held weapons to block and drive away the survivors who ran back from the front line, and drove away those unlucky ones who could not escape.
The eggs gathered together again. Although they were crowded together, they were still a mess, but at least they were a team.
Of course, the morale and combat effectiveness of this kind of team are definitely out of the question. Apart from scaring people, it has some effect on troops like Shorthair - it can be reused and used to continue to consume the ammunition here until it is completely
Until they mutiny or flee.
The Qiong Navy's firepower was powerful, but its advance was not fast and its numbers were small. These chaotic cannon fodder troops reorganized on the side far away from their attack direction. For example, this troop was hiding behind a hill. Basically, except for stray bullets in the sky, there was no one left.
There is no need to worry about being attacked.
However, the good luck was broken at this time - along with this chaotic group of soldiers, a large number of cavalry suddenly appeared behind them, passing by them like a swift wind, and in an instant, blood was everywhere, and the cavalry on the edge of the team suddenly appeared.
Dozens or hundreds of people were all knocked down at once, their heads either flying off with machetes or their bodies stabbed through with spears.
Those cavalry tactics were extremely sharp. After passing by and instantly dispersing this chaotic group of soldiers, they did not stop at all, and immediately went to kill another group of rebels. They also just passed by the outside instead of running into them, but
It was still easy to drive the soldiers away.
Repeatedly, after several repetitions, except for the most elite main rebel forces in the central group, the surrounding haphazardly assembled armies were all broken up, and the personnel fled in all directions again. However, the cavalry were not in a hurry to pursue them.
, of course, he would not let them go so easily. He just circled around, forcing the defeated soldiers like a wolf driving a flock of sheep, and drove them towards the enemy's center position.
——They actually want to drive these remnant soldiers to attack the main force in the center of the rebel army that can still maintain order, in order to win the battle.
The situation on the battlefield suddenly changed, and Beiwei Pang Yu and others stopped in shock at the same time. At first, they thought it was a trick by the opponent, but after a brief observation, they confirmed that it was not the new cavalry team that joined the battlefield. They were brave in their killing skills.
, the men were merciless. Although their targets seemed to be in no rush to kill, every time they dispersed the rebel formations, they still caused a large number of casualties. If this was a cruel trick, then the price paid by the rebels would be too high.
There was another reason that made them more convinced that this was not a trick - the equipment of the cavalry team was so good that the whole army, including men and horses, was equipped with armor, and unlike the ordinary Ming army, which was mainly made of leather or even tissue paper, the armor pieces were
A large amount of metal was used, shining in the sun, and the entire army was like a stream of silver iron. Such equipment was not found on Geng Zhongming and other rebel leaders and generals who were killed a few days ago, which shows that this army is obviously impossible.
It is controlled by the rebels.
"Boss, someone is trying to steal our monster."
Seeing the rebel army being swept to pieces in an instant, the stupid big guy Hu Kai suddenly shouted. This guy probably still misses his online games. But of course Northern Latitude Pang Yu Ao Sayang and others will not be so boring.
, they looked at each other a few times, with a bit of shock in their eyes at the same time - this majestic cavalry reminded them of a term at the same time: Guan Ning Cavalry
In this era, only the army that devoted all the power of the Ming Empire to create and maintain could be so powerful. Since the rise of the Jurchens in the Northeast, the Guan Ning army fighting on the front line against the Manchus has gradually replaced
The status of the Datong Frontier Army is known as the number one soldier of the Ming Dynasty. They enjoy priority status in terms of ordnance, pay, food, etc. provided by the court, and have the best equipment and supplements - they finally lived up to this special treatment
, until the fall of the Ming Dynasty, Guan Ning's army firmly guarded the passage from the northeast into the Central Plains, and did not allow the Manchurian army to break through directly from this area.
Seeing the heavy cavalry of the Guan Ning Army in full body armor rumbled through the crowd, everyone in the Qiong Navy changed their minds. Before their troops came to the mainland, they had repeatedly emphasized the key points of fighting against the cavalry. They attacked Shandong along the way.
The cavalry can be considered relaxed and happy, and they already have some confidence in their hearts. But at this moment, this group of heavy cavalry from Liaodong has shaken their self-confidence.
If those animals are charging this way... Bei Wei and others unanimously issued an order requiring the entire army to be on high alert almost at the same time.
There were not many Guan Ning troops on the battlefield, less than a thousand. But their combat effectiveness was astonishing. Those cavalry were divided into small groups of dozens of people, either dispersed or concentrated, and kept attacking with extremely efficient and accurate means.
Weakening the strength of the rebels. Of course the rebels were not willing to surrender, and they also sent their own cavalry teams to resist - the same "donkey cavalry" teams that had been roaming around before, which were probably intended to be used to attack Qiongzhou.
The army had to come out to resist the sudden attack of Guan Ning's cavalry at this time.
It's just that no matter how big the Shandong donkey is, it can't be compared with the tall war horses of the Liaodong Army. The combat effectiveness of the Shandong cavalry and the Liaodong cavalry is also almost the same as the mounts under their crotches. Although Kong Youde and others
He originally came out of the Liaodong Army, but his old brothers from Liaodong only numbered a few hundred at most. These people were also the main force in the Wuqiao Mutiny. Now that the team has developed, these veterans have long been scattered, and none of them have died.
He became a junior officer and was dispersed throughout the army.
At present, most of these rebel cavalry are recruited by officers at all levels on their own. As long as they have their own mounts, they can serve as cavalry. They have never undergone serious training and lack experience in cavalry combat. After many years of fighting with the Jurchens, the Liaodong Army
He was like a child in front of him, and he was killed in an instant and was completely defeated.
Among them, I saw a white-robed young man with a silver helmet who was particularly brave. He was equipped with a very mixed range of weapons. He was also followed by two or three followers to help him carry and pass weapons, from long-range bows and arrows to mid-range three-pointers. After getting closer, he switched to a long gun and a machete. He used them extremely skillfully, knocking down several Shandong cavalry who rushed towards him. Later, others saw that he was powerful, and three or four men rushed up to attack him at the same time. Seeing that this young man was not in a hurry, he took out a pair of meteor hammers from his waist. The heads of the hammers hovered in the air for a few times before spinning and flying out. One of them was knocked over on the spot, and several others were also entangled in chains and fell. They were all in disarray - this guy actually won a one-on-one four-on-one fight instantly, without any hesitation.
After showing his hand, the young man seemed very proud. He raised one hand to accept the cheers from his subordinates. Then, he walked towards Qiong Haijun.
The soldiers were a little wary, but seeing that he was coming alone and at a very slow speed, and obviously not malicious, they did not stop him and let him walk to the front of the crowd, taking off his helmet, revealing a very handsome face. Face, while cupping his hands, he grinned in this direction:
"Are these people from Qionghai Town? We are under the command of Liaodong Town in the Ming Dynasty. We are here to assist in the battle on the orders of Zhu Futai, the High Supervisor of the Army. The order is for us to help defend Dengzhou Prefecture, but it seems unnecessary now. Haha...haha, your army is really brave. With only a few hundred people, you dare to attack the bandits' formation. It seems that our army came at the right time."
The military general was riding on his mount. He was tall and powerful. He could tell at a glance that the Qiongzhou army in front of him only had a few hundred troops, not even a thousand, and they were all infantry. He meant to benevolent in his words, and felt that his family was like this. The support troops came in time.
But the several commanders who had arrived in front of the formation just looked at each other. They had already guessed the identity of the other party, and they were not grateful for the appearance of Guan Ningjun. In their opinion, this unit was completely They are here to pick peaches. Although Pang Yu had previously thought not to make too great a contribution, when such a group of people suddenly appeared, even he would not be happy, let alone the group of enthusiastic young people.
"We are the Hainan Qiongzhou Army. Who are you?"
The man opposite had been sitting on his horse looking down at them condescendingly. He had to raise his head when talking to him. This feeling was obviously not good. Even Aosayan felt unhappy and spoke very directly. The general was not He seemed to be unaware that his gesture was very impolite, and just smiled lazily:
Chapter completed!
