Chapter 490: The Battle of Pingnan 3
Zhao Ximin knew very well that according to his deployment, there were now six Ruan Wei's hundred-man team and his two hundred-man guards in the front troops, and at the beginning of the battle, he would definitely not send his troops to death. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infom,Wonderful,Oriental,Literature] (To see the latest chapter, please go to: Literature Building 6) Thinking of this, Zhao Ximin couldn't help but sneak a glance at Ruan Wei, who had bandages and splints on his hands and feet, this dead fat man who had lost weight because he didn't have a concubine to take care of him was still a mountain of meat, and now he was lying in the corner of the handsome tent while snoring loudly and drooling, and his hands and feet twitched twice from time to time, and he didn't know what kind of spring dream he was doing. Naturally, he couldn't care about this and didn't bother to take care of it, but when Ruan Wei fell asleep, he would be qualified to manage those staff officers under Ruan Wei and then manage his legion.
After far from being a cool ship by the strange Fang Yue
And all this, he had already premeditated, or when the army was marching in, he had already bought off a number of staff officers under Nguyen Wei's staff group, promising to let these staff officers command the entire army according to his own requirements with heavy money and official positions. This group of staff officers did not have any psychological pressure at all, Ruan Wei owed them money for several months, and Ruan Wei himself had broken both hands and feet, and he had already decided to let Zhao Ximin take charge of his army when he was on the road.
The only thing that bothered Zhao Ximin now was the large number of casualties among his heralds and officers, who were equivalent to the backbone of the entire legion. In this case, the entire legion is like a walking corpse, the soldiers cannot find the officers and the soldiers, and any order needs to be passed on in a very complicated way. However, as they were about to reach the port of Champong, this targeted attack of the enemy was suddenly stopped, and from last night until this morning, there was no enemy attack except for a strange attack by a strange bird.
"General Zhao, so we should have approached the port of Champang, and the Nguyen army was limited and could not compete with our army in a field battle, so we adopted this method of avoiding and not fighting to stop the attack," said a staff officer, "Since our army is approaching at this time, we might as well start attacking the city in one go." ”
"The enemy is defending the fortified city, and at this time our army is coming from afar, but it is a tired army, and the enemy army is waiting for work, isn't our army's attack at this time in the enemy's arms?" Someone asked rhetorically, "Now that our army lacks siege equipment and does not have enough food and grass, if we attack the city now, we will inevitably fall to the disadvantage, and we will increase the casualties of many soldiers for no reason." ”
Sun Diyuan's hatred of ghosts and ghosts was learned by Leng Mo the most
"It is precisely because our army does not have enough food and grass that we have to attack immediately." "Yes, when marching and fighting, the emphasis is on one drum, if it is delayed for a day or two under the city, it will be demoralized."
"However, the food and grass of our army is enough for today, and there is no food and grass to provide after lunch, so if you don't attack the city at this time, when will you wait?" "But if you can build siege equipment, you can effectively reduce the casualties of soldiers and ......"
The staff officer's words were interrupted by Zhao Ximin before he finished speaking, "No food means no military heart, if there is no military heart, how should this battle be fought?" At present, most of the sergeants did not know the exact amount of grain and grass, but at most the matter could only be concealed until the afternoon, and if the food and grass could not be provided in the afternoon, the whole army would inevitably be shaken, and the combat strength would be reduced. If the time drags on, I am afraid that if we do not need to fight, our army will already be defeated. ”
"But without siege equipment, how will our army get to the city when it arrives at the city? Do you want to take a ladder forward? "This is not a difficult matter," said the staff officer who spoke, with a look of confidence, "although our army has burned a lot of grain and grass, there are still a large number of empty pockets of grain and grass, so that the soldiers can dig up the earth and put it in it, and pile it up to the height of the city wall, and then they can directly step on the bag containing the soil to climb the city wall." "Wonderful! If this method is used, the soldiers can walk directly from the ground to the top of the city, and it is not easy to be destroyed by the city. ”
"But without siege equipment, our army cannot suppress the city head with siege weapons, and it is not easy to suppress it with bows and arrows." "Yes, if we can't suppress the counterattack at the head of the city, our soldiers will definitely suffer heavy damage."
Zhao Ximin pursed his lips disapprenously, his eyes glanced at Ruan Wei who was still sleeping next to him again, and said, "What does it matter to me whether this soldier is killed or injured?" If you can't capture this port of Champa, what is the use of even if a soldier is not injured? When you are a soldier, you eat food, you eat food, you should work hard to move forward when you become a soldier, you should have known this for a long time, right? Saying that, Zhao Ximin's eyes were fixed on a few staff officers who were looking at him in a daze.
These staff officers were Ruan Wei's subordinates, and Ruan Wei usually commanded the entire corps through them. But now, Ruan Wei has become a wasted person, good birds choose trees to perch, no matter how stupid these staff officers are, they know that Ruan Wei's big tree has fallen, and these monkeys should find other big trees - at this time, looking at the South Coast Army, even if it is looking at Annan, Zhao Ximin is only the only choice.
Zhao Ximin also took good care of these staff officers, you must know that Ruan Wei's army is still Ruan Wei's after all, and whether the tens of thousands of soldiers under his command can be manipulated freely depends on these staff officers. Ruan Wei is now all limbs, as long as he masters them, these 100,000 people will all belong to his own command, Ruan Wei just needs to be a mascot quietly in the handsome tent, even if it is snoring, it doesn't matter.
These staff officers also obeyed Zhao Ximin's orders, and the soldiers didn't die, Ruan Wei didn't care about them originally, but now that he came to Zhao Ximin, he just didn't care about whether the soldiers died or not. Speaking of which, the death or wounding of soldiers has no effect on these staff officers at all, and their position is in the middle commander's account. If this place had been attacked, the front would have been wiped out long ago, and if this had happened, he would have run away with the commander of the legion, so there would be no danger at all. In line with the psychology of the dead Dao friends and the poor Dao, they didn't feel guilty at all, so they sent several main combat teams of Ruan Wei's army to the front.
However, what they did not expect was that due to the heavy casualties of the heralds, there was also a huge delay in the transmission of information, and the content of the heralds was often varied. In addition, the leaders of some of the war teams were killed and wounded, and the entire war team was in chaos, and many of the newly elected military leaders of the war teams secretly put some auxiliary soldiers and Ding Zhuang who were not originally assigned to the front of the line.
The knot is not far from the ghost ship, the moon passes the ghost ship
These Ding Zhuang and the auxiliary soldiers had no combat experience at all, most of them did not even have armor, and often did not have any weapons in their hands, sticks and bamboo guns were already their main weapons, and more people were simply empty-handed, and were driven to the front of the array by the soldiers behind them with a blank face. In front of them was a clearing, of felled trees, littered with uneven ravines and uncleared stumps, clearly trailing by felled trees, which also stretched to the east.
There is a fortress in the distance to the east, and the blue-gray walls are known to be made of masonry at a glance, and must be very solid. These men who were not even soldiers did not know what a fortress meant, and to the soldiers of the South Bank Army, these people were not human beings at all, but just tools that could talk and walk, and they were not as good as mules, horses, and donkeys to carry things. What's even more annoying is that these people still have to eat, competing with themselves for the already insufficient rations. Ding Zhuang stumbled forward on the ground strewn with ravines and drag marks, his movements disorganized, his eyes blank, they hadn't eaten since the morning - food was to be given priority to the soldiers, and now the soldiers didn't have enough to eat, let alone have anything left for them. The soldiers drove them to the front, in fact, the main intention was to let them go to the front to die, and the more they died, the fewer people would be able to grab food from them.
"Who are those people up there?" Li Yuan was a little depressed and held his binoculars to stare at the crowd who were being driven over, "The clothes are in tatters, like a beggar's gang." ”
"It's still good, remember the battle to defend the port of Champong, right?" Qian Longzhou laughed, "At that time, the people who walked in the front were naked old and weak women and children, these people were completely no different from those Dingkou, they were all used to consume our ammunition. ”
"It's not human!" Peng Jian angrily stuffed the telescope to the observer next to him, "Driving others to die, and then following others behind their backs to pick up leaks and steal credit, are all bastards!" As he spoke, the muscles on his face twitched a little, and he knew at a glance that it was real fire.
"What's wrong? Brother Peng, what's wrong? The sniper put down his rifle curiously, and looked at Peng Jian with his head propped up in his left hand, "Aren't people in this era fighting like this?" Nothing new. Even in our old world, that's how the African Scouts played. ”
"Of course I do! How could I not know! Peng Jian roared out with some anger, but immediately realized that he seemed to be talking too much, so he hurriedly stopped, and walked down the road and went down the city with his head down.
Peng Jian walked straight to the ambulance in Shabak City, opened the curtain and walked in to look around, the indigenous doctors were nervous, and many male nurses were also pale, obviously nervous. He let out a heavy breath, scaring the indigenous medics next to him into a blast. "Don't be too nervous!" Peng Jian waved his hand at them, "It's normal to be nervous, but you can't be too nervous, people will be nervous, their hands will tremble, their eyes will not be clear, their feet will be unsteady, and if there are wounded soldiers who are sent in for treatment, it is very likely that something will go wrong." If we make a mistake, it's often a real death, so take a deep breath! Too nervous to drink two sips of hot water and take a deep breath. ”
The medics nodded their heads, turned to their cups, and then gathered outside to scoop water in front of the cauldron where water was boiling. Peng Jian saw that they were all swarming out, and he also took two deep breaths, found a stool and sat down, put his hands on his legs, leaned his head against the wall behind him, and closed his eyes.
He is a veteran with combat experience, but his combat experience is different from most veterans, not cultivated in this time and space, but cultivated in the old time and space - soon after he left the country, he joined MSF, an international voluntary organization founded in 1971 and is the world's largest ** human to medical rescue organization. The organization sends volunteer medical and logistician personnel to areas affected by natural disasters, wars and epidemics to provide emergency medical relief to victims of wars, epidemics and natural disasters, as well as to provide basic medical care and surgery, rebuild hospitals and pharmacies, promote nutrition and sanitation programs, and train local medical personnel in areas where medical facilities are inadequate or completely absent.
Peng Jian's medical skills were not superb at the time, and because he was Chinese, he was also hindered by many pertinents in this organization. Soon after he joined the organization, he participated in a medical assistance project in a small African country, but soon after he participated, the entire medical camp was looted by a ** army, and the United Nations peacekeepers in the medical camp suffered heavy losses, and finally had to abandon their retreat, Peng Jian was captured in order to protect the wounded and sick during the retreat. Because of his internationally recognized medical skills, he was spared by the rebels, but the wounded, sick and captured peacekeepers were all slaughtered.
This young boy, who had only participated in dozens of days of military training in college, only knew that he was standing up and walking in unison, endured it, and finally one night he found the right opportunity, killed several of the main commanders of the rebel army, and escaped alone. When he returned to the organization, he was fired for this murderous experience, which made him angry, and finally took the arms he took from the rebels and organized a team of blacks to hunt down African warlords who killed people like hemp, and was once called "yellow lightning" in Africa.
His yellow lightning became famous in the local area, so that the government army was on pins and needles, and many times sent troops to try to exterminate them, but they never succeeded, and finally the government had to contact Peng Jian through China, which allowed Peng Jian to lead this yellow lightning to surrender to the government army. Peng Jian was also physically and mentally exhausted in the two years of yellow lightning, and directly refused the appointment of the country's president and general after surrendering, and did not even ask for the Patriotic Medal made of gold, and went back to China by boat, and lived a 9-to-5 life again until he participated in the crossing.
After the crossing, he no longer has much interest in the military department, as a veteran, he does not worry about food and clothing, why should he risk his life to enter the military department? Being a doctor is just an ambition when he was a student, and for him now, raising pigs is much easier than holding a scalpel - after all, pigs will not complain that the surgery is not good, you must know that a veteran doctor often faces the main patient is the elder, and it should be cured, in case it is not cured, but the political stain, in comparison, it is much safer to give an indigenous doctor a training course or something, so he has always declined He Yongkang's invitation.
But now the main veteran doctors in the Oriental Port have their own affairs, this time Shabak is likely to face the enemy without a veteran doctor, which makes the executive committee feel very unsafe, after all, Liu Xu hung up in the last battle without a veteran doctor, this time there are dozens of elders in Shabak City, in case two of them are injured and can't be sent out, and it will be a big trouble to die inside, so the executive committee specially came to three executive committee members to ask him to sit down. Thinking of this, Peng Jian couldn't help but smile bitterly, walked out of the tent, came to the sink, and began to brush his hands. Looking up, the busy crowd on the city wall was tantamount to saying that the battle was about to begin, so he had to prepare early.
