Chapter 272: Round Battle
Suke Saha was ready to escape, but, after all, Shangjing had not yet been captured, so he was still holding on to the luck mentality, hoping that a miracle would make Huaxia withdraw its troops.
Therefore, he is still insisting, constantly deploying troops and dispatching generals to maintain order in the capital.
Time passed in a hurry like a white horse, and soon, a few days passed.
Although the original Korean kingdom was small and poor, he was born with a small family.
However, their Shangjing and the surrounding areas were quite prosperous in the original time.
After all, this is the capital of the former Joseon Kingdom.
Under the strong political atmosphere, there are a large number of princes, nobles, and wealthy families who have taken root here.
There are also many careerists who want to participate in the political conflict in North Korea, but do not have enough power, and they also hide in the middle, hoping to live closer to the royal capital and wait for opportunities.
A large number of Goryeo aristocrats, wealthy families, and large families have driven the consumption of this area, and at the same time, a large number of people have also been concentrated for the guidance of these feudal high-level leaders, so that the Shangjing area looks like an ordinary Ming provincial capital.
However, things have changed since the second year of the fire.
Chen Xin took advantage of the shortage of food in Houjin, the political instability, and the fact that Huang Taiji had just ascended to the throne and urgently needed to consolidate his dominance and send a large army to eat the enemy.
Seizing the opportunity given by history, he instigated, supported, and assisted Amin, who had not been able to stand on his own in history, to successfully ascend to the throne of the king and form a new country.
The entire kingdom of Korea was almost wiped out by Amin and the slave owners of the Eight Banners, who were bewitched by huge profits, and the northern part of the kingdom of Korea was in mourning.
Although, later, Amin was also turned over by Huang Taiji again, destroyed the country, and took his life, but the situation in the Korean Kingdom has long been a rotten and irreparable.
Later, An Buyu and Suke Saha, who were in power, were not people with outstanding government skills.
In a mess, they couldn't make any effective changes.
Besides, there was no time for them to make any good changes.
Because, at that time, the slave owners of the Eight Banners who followed them in rebellion, after enjoying the power increase brought by the rebellion, were also a little disobedient.
In order to ensure that the military leaders under their command would not have dissent during that turbulent period, An Buyang and Sukh Saha could only indulge their Eight Banners disciples to do nonsense.
You don't need to think about it, you know what the Eight Banners that can turn the fertile Liaodong, which originally had a population of millions into a ghost domain that starved to death for many years, will do something after losing its restraints.
So, in the next two years, originally, it was basically quite rich, occupying more than half of the wealth of the Joseon Kingdom, and finally ushered in the last glory.
The walls of Shangjing City were built higher and thicker and thicker. Its perimeter auxiliary defense facilities, more and more, occupy an area, larger and larger. The economy and people's livelihood within its scope had collapsed before the arrival of the Southern Assault Cluster.
In a word, in the Shangjing area, there is not a single civilian in the surrounding hundreds of miles.
Here, apart from the officers, soldiers, and slave owners of Houjin, only slaves remained.
In this dead and silent area, the army units of the Huaxia Kingdom were thrown into this lifeless area, scattered and stationed.
A deserted and overgrown mansion of the Goryeo gentry that had long been plagued by the Houjin was temporarily requisitioned to serve as a temporary headquarters for the Southern Assault Cluster after a little cleaning.
Because the area of the theater of operations is not large, there is no way to put too many troops on the front line.
After attacking for three days and feeling that the battlefield was too saturated, in order to allow all teams to be trained, Zhong Fulin made a quick decision and chose the strategy of round battle.
In other words, Zhong Fulin divided the entire southern assault cluster into two parts, and demarcated each other's attack targets.
There is no need to set a specific time, once a team has completed the task, it can retreat to the rear to rest, and the next combat mission will be handed over to another team to continue to complete, and the cycle will continue until all the dungeons on the periphery have been conquered.
However, the soldiers were able to rest, but the officers did not have this blessing.
The summing up of experience, the replenishment of personnel, the maintenance and repair of equipment, the supply of ammunition, the replenishment of materials, the resettlement of wounded soldiers, the aftermath of martyrs, and so on and so on, all need to be solved by officers at all levels.
Originally, when there were only one or two battalions, these tasks were quite easy, but when the size of the troops reached nearly 20 battalions, the complexity of things was not ten times that of a mere one.
When the rotation was carried out for the first time, the chaos between the various departments made Zhong Fulin look frightened, and his whole person was almost about to collapse, once there was a problem with the troops of these 20 battalions, Huaxia Guo would be instantly tired.
At that time, the situation was urgent, but fortunately, Zhong Fulin learned from Chen Xinshi, and the habit of leaving reserves at any time saved his heart.
Laksin led all the cavalry troops, lined up in the rear, and waited for the Houjin army to take advantage of the situation to kill.
At that time, he was ready to die for the queen of the whole army.
Fortunately, the main forces of the Houjin Army were hiding in Shangjing and failed to respond in time.
Relying only on the scattered forces in the forts on the periphery, he did not have the courage to launch a counter-charge against the large forces of the Huaxia Army.
This made Zhong Fulin glad that he had escaped, and he was also extremely fortunate that there was a reserve team.
Fortunately, the officers of Huaxia Country must be trained in the martial arts hall, and these officers, as well as the existence of a large number of veteran non-commissioned officers in the team, work together to ensure that there is no major turmoil in the southern assault cluster in this crisis.
At this time, the cadets who had systematically studied the knowledge of the martial arts hall gave full play to their due role.
Chen Xin personally presided over the lecture hall, which gave these officers and non-commissioned officers enough knowledge so that they would not be overwhelmed.
They planned and assigned all the work step by step according to the knowledge they had learned, and when every officer strictly abided by his duties and participated in the prescribed plan, things were much easier to solve, and the team quickly became orderly again.
At this moment, Zhong Fulin finally understood why Chen Xin always thought that in a real combat environment, he would come to a large-scale military training.
"Actual combat is indeed a good place for the troops to sublimate."
"It's just that it's too dangerous."
After the scramble of the first rotation, on the fifth day of the offense, the second rotation of the whole team was no longer panicked.
This time, the whole team was busy and showed an orderly appearance, which also made Zhong Fulin breathe a sigh of relief.
According to the last experience, Lakshin, who led the cavalry troops in the rear and made preparations, once again, did not come in handy.
When this handover was completed, Zhong Fulin, his adjutant, and several military commanders who had withdrawn from the front line to rest and recuperate the infantry battalion, discussed the battle on the front line and summed up the experience found in the war.
A staff officer walked quickly into the courtyard, came to the room where they were, and said loudly, "Report, the 201st Battalion of the front line has once again captured a fortress." ”
As he spoke, he also skillfully drew a cross on a small dot representing a dungeon on the hand-drawn attack and defense map of the Shangjing area hanging on the south wall of the room.
An officer opened his mouth and praised it, "Yo, the second regiment's attack speed is good, this is just a short time after the rotation has been completed, and our side has just finished the aftermath work, and they have conquered a bunker on their side." ”
Zhong Fulin's adjutant recorded the number of the fort that had just been conquered in his notebook, and while calculating the percentage of the task completed, he casually answered.
"Before, it was our infantry battalions that had no experience. After several days of running-in, everyone became familiar with the various fighting styles in the training and had actual combat experience. The next game is smooth, and it is a matter of course. ”
"No, no, experience is not the main factor, I think, it's a matter of spirit.
When the soldiers of the previous infantry battalion fought, they were all timid, like shrunken turtles. It was only under the leadership and inspiration of the non-commissioned officers and officers that the combat enthusiasm of the conscripts was stimulated, and the battle was fought smoothly. ”
"What you say is reasonable, but it is too one-sided, and we must look at the problem from the perspective of dialectical unity.
Actually, I think that all the factors that you are talking about should account for a certain percentage, and we should combine them all and not make decisions based on a single one-sided view. ”
