Chapter 385: Battle
This task, it seems, is very simple, and there is basically no danger of failure, but it is extremely difficult.
It's easy because as long as you lead the team out and walk around the designated place, you can basically be considered to have carried out a mission. However, in this way, the score on the side of the General Staff will be very low.
It's hard to say because there are so many things that you can play freely about, and the possibility of encountering accidents is also huge.
Anyway, in the end, after the efforts, the specific action report and relevant intelligence brought back will be a clear, answer.
Zachdan's meaning, obviously, the opportunity is given to you, whether you can grasp it, how many points you can get, it all depends on your own ability.
Fu Yan smiled, he bowed his head slightly, hiding his excitement, and then raised his head again and said, "Thank you for the general's trust, I will definitely not let you down, general." ”
Zachdan nodded, turned around and picked up a pen and paper and began to write military orders, while also making suggestions to Xiaofu.
"To give you a little advice, you can choose a few guides who can ride horses among the military auxiliaries recruited from Lushun, they are all locals, and most of them have participated in Mao Wenlong's raids, and they will play a lot of roles.
This time, I asked you to go to the patrol to attack the enemy's territory, not only a test, but also a strategic need of our army, you must be careful to carry out this order.
Remember, don't engage with enemy cavalry, and never delay, whether you hit or miss.
Coming and going like the wind is the purpose of the ranger, and you must have understood this when you were interning in the Ranger Regiment.
Finally, before taking action, we should listen to the opinions of those old non-commissioned officers, who are the precious wealth of the Huaxia Army. ”
Fu Yan kept them in his heart one by one, and then said, "My subordinates understand!" ”
Zachdan waved his hand, "You go and prepare immediately, you can take a few more of the enemy horses captured yesterday and use them to transport logistics supplies. ”
Fu Yan thumped his chest fiercely, turned around and walked towards his war horse.
This kind of task with a high degree of freedom, extremely difficult challenges, and extremely challenging command ability, he likes it the most, how can a real soldier be afraid of challenges.
????“ Adjutant. ”
"Here."
"The whole army is ready to enter the city, and also, report to the king as soon as possible, and then urge the logistics side, so that they can transport the food and materials for the winter as soon as possible.
In addition, let the navy warships parked in the distance help go to the waters near Fuzhou to help our army see what the situation is over there. I don't want to be obscured by fog again and caught off guard by the enemy. ”
"Yes."
······
Chen Xin, who had returned to the palace, received the report of the battle of Zakdan a few days later.
He smiled when he learned that in a field battle, his own cavalry actually penetrated the enemy's cavalry array and directly defeated the enemy's main cavalry force under the condition of inferior forces.
However, the smile could not be maintained, because, next, there was the casualty statistics.
The casualties of the Lushun dispatch army this time were mainly in the cavalry, after all, whether it was a field battle or a siege battle, the infantry did not enter the range of the enemy's cavalry because of the speed problem.
More than 40 people were killed in the cavalry battalion, and more than 10 soldiers and officers were seriously injured and could not continue to serve, accounting for about 10% of the total strength of the cavalry battalion.
The scouts of the 2nd Reconnaissance Battalion also killed more than 30 people in battle, and more than 10 people were seriously wounded and discharged, and they were even more miserable, and the casualty rate accounted for about three layers of the total strength of the 2nd Reconnaissance Battalion.
It's all about heavy casualties.
In terms of the number of enemies killed, it was a lot of money, but no one could be happy when they saw this battle report.
Because everyone knows that in the future, as long as they are still fighting with the Houjin army, this casualty ratio will continue, and their children will continue to suffer casualties.
War, it's really cruel.
However, it is always good to win a big battle, because this is finally a comfort to the people of the Huaxia Army, who have been busy for so long and spent so much manpower and material resources, and finally trained a cavalry unit worthy of a battle.
Since, in the actual battle, it has been proved that the cavalry trained by one's own side is in battle and the tactics are advanced, then, next, it is necessary to expand the cavalry troops with all its might, and prepare for the decisive battle with the Houjin army in the future.
The expansion of the cavalry unit has already made various plans, and even the shadow troops have been trained in several batches, and after the shelves are erected, as long as they are filled with qualified soldiers for training.
Therefore, in this regard, Chen Xin really doesn't need to worry about it.
However, he couldn't be idle, because, in addition to the victory, Zachdan's battle report was also mixed with another battle plan and a lot of war petitions.
······
Chen Xin put down the teacup in his hand and asked softly, "Fuzhou, do you think you should fight now?" ”
In the war room, Chen Xin summoned all the senior officers of the General Staff to prepare for a military meeting.
This is already the fifth day since receiving the battle report.
On the front line, after the Battle of Jinzhou, the Lushun Dispatch Army followed the plan made before the war and stopped the offensive.
Of course, Zachdan only stopped the attack of the large army, and the attack of the small army was not a real attack, because the cavalry team did not have the ability to attack the fortified city.
Their role is only to detect and harass the enemy, and at the same time, to provide a good channel for their own side to observe the reaction of the Houjin army.
The Battle of Daling River defeated the enemy's 50,000 cavalry forces, and at the same time cleaned up Huang Taiji, the supreme ruler of Houjin, however, because of the distance between Daling River and Houjin Capital, coupled with the interception of his own cavalry, as well as weather factors and other reasons, the enemy capital has not received any news related to Huang Taiji.
However, this was just a speculative action, and Chen Xin did not take this kind of action as the norm, so he didn't care too much about the situation on his side.
The victory in the first battle of Jinzhou can be regarded as a formal contact with the inland of Houjin, and the Huaxia army will advance into the hinterland of Houjin step by step from here, so most of the attention of the Huaxia army is on this side.
However, on the Houjin side, there has been no major reaction, and only the Houjin Tartars in Fuzhou sent dozens of scouts to investigate.
There have been several small clashes between the two sides, and the morale of the troops stationed in Jinzhou and Lushun is now high, and not only the commander-in-chief Zachdan has sent a battle plan, but even the following departments have written a petition for war, asking for an attack on Fuzhou to further expand the results of the battle, and today we want to discuss this matter.
