On the battlefield of Hexi. The soldiers of the Wolf Regiment were very happy because they finally had horses.

"Company commander, horse. Our own horses. Zhou Da said excitedly to the company commander. He carefully stroked the horse's real mane as if he were his own daughter-in-law.

Horses are spiritual. The soldiers of the Wolf Regiment cherish their horses, and the horses will naturally behave meekly.

"Hehe, we finally have a horse." The company commander said excitedly that they had come all the way, and they had gone all the way, which was really fucking aggrieved. In the words of the company commander himself, when they left. Most of the soldiers ate the dust all the way, and watched their troops move quickly to the front line, which made them not know what to do anyway.

These horses are the trophies of the Republican cavalry regiment, and the horses are an important strategic resource that is prioritized to transport back, and they arrive here with some trophies, and then they are distributed to the wolf regiment, of course, most of the horses are concentrated in the rear. And they only left less than a thousand horses, but this is already quite good for the wolf group.

Their regiment was before, but it was the only infantry regiment that was not equipped with a large number of horses, and at this time, their commander, Zhao Laosan, couldn't even raise their heads.

Now that the soldiers finally have their own horses, they are so happy that they are reluctant to ride. The most important thing is that no one in the whole regiment can ride at all.

They've only seen it, but it will take some time for them to learn how to ride a horse all at once.

Actually, a lot of troops when equipping horses. This is also the case. Many soldiers fell from their horses. Either they were uncomfortable with this or that, but gradually after the march, they were able to get used to it, and at first they walked slowly, and later, they were able to run for a while. This is also a good improvement for the infantry.

Wild Wolf Regiment Headquarters. Zhang Zhen smiled at the horses assigned to the regiment headquarters, and he was finally happy. Horses, this is a good thing, at least they have two infantry battalions that can be repurposed into mounted infantry battalions. Their mobility will be greatly improved, and this will be a huge development opportunity for them, and such an opportunity will form a strong development force for all people.

"Lao Zhao. Come and see, our own horses. The above gives us a share. Zhang Zhen called excitedly.

"Hey, I see. But let's sum up the next thing. Zhao Laosan said and took out a map from his backpack. Zhang Zhen knew that this was a task. Maybe they have a lot of tasks.

"What's wrong? Got a task? Zhang Zhen asked excitedly.

"Yes. There are tasks. Zhao Laosan put his hat on the ammunition box and said. Then spread out a map I got from Command, the map was drawn by the Scout, and it looked much better.

"Our current location is in Jintuling. The above ordered us to spread out along the supply line in an all-round way to provide support to the cavalry regiment and the cavalry infantry that came to cover, because the defensive position area is relatively large, we can only deploy it in infantry companies, and those horses must all be collected and sent to the rear. Of course, there will be a lot of ammunition for us above, and as long as we keep the supply line, everything will not be too much of a problem. Zhao Laosan said.

"What? Those horses, just sent down, just, take away? Zhang Zhen said in disbelief.

"Lao Zhang, you know, if there is any good thing, we must grab it ourselves. There is not much direct relationship with the enemy, so what do you do with so much? Moreover, we are infantry, and we have a great advantage in defending such a thing, so in such a matter, I think we still obey the orders from above. Zhao Laosan said.

But the brothers had just been given some horses, and they were not yet hot. Not anymore. We can't get used to this kind of thing anyway. Zhang Zhen said helplessly.

"I know, but this is an order, and I know that you are helpless, but we must carry on such things, otherwise, many things will not be carried out very advantageously." Zhao Laosan said.

"We are infantry, this time it is a blocking battle, and the horses are useless to us, besides. The other party will attack, let's seize the opportunity, do them all at once, let others give alms, our wild wolf group has never done such a thing, we want to form our own cavalry battalion, just grab it ourselves. Relying on other people's alms, we are not a group of wild wolves. Zhao Laosan said. Although Zhang Zhen was still reluctant in his heart. After all, no one wants to see what they get all of a sudden.

"Although I can't help it. But we still have a backbone in the wolf group, damn it, aren't they just hundreds of horses? Lao Tzu grabbed it himself. Zhang Zhen said.

"That's right. Tell the warriors about it, and maybe they'll figure it out for themselves. Zhao Laosan said.

"Well, I see." Zhang Zhen said.

The cavalry regiment and cavalry infantry were slowly retreating, and according to their reconnaissance, there were still no Hun cavalry nearby, and it seemed that their reaction was timely. They also did not reconnoiter very clearly about the dynamics of the Republican Army, which gave the Republican cavalry plenty of time to retreat, which was their most advantageous point.

Hedong, inside the headquarters of Ma Heng.

"The cavalry regiment finally retreated. But the problem is that we currently lack the necessary information. It is impossible to find out from the battlefield where the Huns are and where they will attack, which is still a big trouble for us. Ma Heng looked at the markings on the map and said that he still had a lot of things to worry about, and sometimes, he didn't know what he was worried about.

There are too many shortcomings of the Republican Army. First of all, the intelligence was not timely, and the appearance of the telegram made the Republican Army begin to have a problem, that is, the command, at all times, wanted to know what was going on at the front. Although the telegram received a much larger amount of information, it still could not satisfy the desire of the senior commanders to control the battlefield, and they were worried about the emergence of various desires.

But in terms of intelligence, the progress of the Republican Army is too limited, although they have aerial reconnaissance, the intelligence provided by aerial reconnaissance is still too limited, they can only provide tactical reconnaissance, strategic reconnaissance, they have no way, after all, airships cannot conduct reconnaissance in a wider range. This is a matter of more technical challenges for the IRA's air forces. And these problems are not solved all at once. It's going to take time, and even they need to be better to deal with things like this, and that's what they're going to be in. If this situation is not well solved, other things are really not easy to solve.

"Sir, there is no way, we can only do tactical reconnaissance at most, a lot of intelligence is gathered from the front-line troops, and the reconnaissance results are obtained, and the scope will not be too large, our larger battlefield reconnaissance, there is no yet. This is likely to remain the case for some time. The intelligence staff officer also said helplessly, saying that this was their own dereliction of duty. But they can't help it. There are so many things they lack.

And good scouts are not established all at once, the same is true for delivering news, and the scouts in the court also take a long time and money to establish, not only that, but they also have all kinds of sentinels. And these, the Republican Army has just been created, and sometimes, they themselves have just unfolded and are discovered by the enemy. They themselves are in a disadvantageous situation. Such a situation cannot be changed all at once.

"I know this kind of thing, too. But there is no way, the situation is like this, no matter how we say, there is no way to change such a situation. Ma Heng said. This backward situation in intelligence may be maintained for a long time, and they can only endure it. Fortunately, their staff officers were able to analyze the intelligence sent from the battlefield, and in terms of command, the problem was not very big.

But it may take a long, long time for them to maintain this situation, and to improve.

Lijiazhuang. War Department. Targeting intelligence issues. The operations department of the Republican Army has long had its own opinion.

"In addition to the establishment of logistical support in military schools, as well as such disciplines as battlefield reconnaissance, we also propose to expand the scope of such reconnaissance using some new technologies." A headquarters staff officer said this with a report.

"Tell me about it." Shang Wu said.

"Sir, aerial reconnaissance still has an advantage, at present aerial reconnaissance because of the quantity, they cannot play a great role, if we can expand such a large number, the situation will be extremely favorable to us, I believe that in such a situation, our situation will become much more favorable. Within a certain range of battlefields, we will be able to seize the initiative in intelligence. At the very least, we can fully grasp the intelligence dynamics on the battlefield. This will be extremely beneficial for our next battle. The other party said.

"Hmm. However, in terms of intelligence analysis, it may not be very good, and maybe we can do this from other angles. Shang Wu thought for a moment and said. Perhaps, the invention of the camera is a good thing, if a large number of airships carry out aerial photo reconnaissance, they will really be able to grasp the accuracy of intelligence. This will be a huge advantage for them. Shang Wu felt that it was very feasible.
