Chen Xin's face was solemn and said, "Think of a way to make up for it." The order goes down, and in 10 minutes, I'm going to hold a combat meeting. ”

"Yes." As soon as the officer stood upright, he went to make preparations.

After waiting for the other party to leave, Chen Xin got up and said, "Anya." ”

"The concubine is here."

"Changing clothes."

"Yes."

With the help of Anya, Chen Xin changed into a six-year military uniform, and at the same time, his hands were not idle, grabbing a cup of soy milk in one hand and chewing a big bun in the other.

The battle meeting is about to begin, and in order to make up for the loss of the sheep and leave the enemy who entered the mountain, I am afraid that everyone will be busy for a long time, and if you don't hurry up to eat, where will you have the strength to be busy.

Chen Xin, who has already experienced a hundred battles, will not be unable to eat because of a little pressure.

In Chen Xin's view, if you can't eat because of work, it's not busy, it's hypocrisy, as a commander, the more nervous the moment, the more you have to maintain your strong appetite and ensure that you can work healthily.

By the time the five big buns and two cups of soy milk were eaten together, Anya had already helped him sort out his clothes and handed him a copper basin for him to wash his hands.

"Anya, thank you."

"You're too polite, it's all a matter of concubine status."

Chen Xin smiled, took out his pocket watch and looked at it, "It's almost time, I'll go first." ”

"Congratulations to my king."

Chen Xin, who was in a good mood after eating and drinking, walked out of the upper room all the way, bypassed a bend under the porch, and stepped into the spacious and bright main hall.

After accepting the military salute from the officers, Chen Xin did not have the slightest nonsense at all and immediately started his work.

"Now, where is the large force of the enemy's First Route Army?"

A staff officer immediately walked out of the queue and pointed out on the sand table with a baton: "Your Excellency, please look here, the enemy, more than 30,000 people of the First Route Army have been resting in this area near the Imjin River in Pingkang. ”

Chen Xin looked at the sand table area pointed by the baton, and asked with some confusion: "Why is the area of the enemy's rest so large?" Is it because the reconnaissance force can't get close for detailed observations? ”

"Your Excellency, this is not the case, we have a mountain observation unit specially organized by Major Tian Jianwu the year before last, and with a large telescope of high magnification, we can observe the enemy in detail.

In fact, the enemy had sprinkled 30,000 troops over such a large area.

According to the report sent back by Major Tian Jianwu, the troops of the enemy's First Route Army, except for the three forward battalions with a size of 1,000 men, the rest of the troops were about 3,000 men as a battalion.

They divided their troops of more than 30,000 men into a dozen small units and stationed them on a territory about the size of three counties, and guarded the main roads in and out of the mountain passes.

According to our analysis, the enemy did this in order to facilitate the retreat at any time.

After all, the actions of large troops are always not as convenient as those of small troops, and the difficulty of withdrawing 30,000 people together and 3,000 people together cannot be summed up by ten times the difficulty of the difference. ”

Chen Xin nodded in understanding, and then, looking at the posture of the enemy marked with various small flags on the sand table, asked, "So, is the position of the enemy and us on the sand table accurate?" ”

An officer stood up and reassured, "Please rest assured, this is absolutely accurate, this is all this morning, according to the reports sent by the troops, readjusted." ”

"Very well, then, that is, we have about 6 battalions of troops, already outflanking the enemy's rear, and about 10 battalions of troops are moving closer to the enemy's forward forces?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Chen Xin looked at the sand table, and his eyes flashed with excitement.

Maybe you don't need to bother to do the work of making amends? Looking at the current situation of the enemy and us on this sand table, our army has every chance to complete the first battle plan.

Thinking so, Chen Xin asked with some expectation, "Then, when will the battalions of our army that are moving closer to the enemy in the mountains be able to complete the encirclement in the first plan?" “

As if hearing the excitement in Chen Xin's words, several senior officers looked at each other in distress, and one of them stood up and reported, "Your Excellency, it will take at least about a day for the outflanking troops to move in place, and it will take two days for the encircled troops. ”

Hearing this answer, Chen Xin's excitement quickly subsided, and he asked with a serious face, "Why is it so slow?" From the distance shown on the sand table, calculated according to the scale, the distance between the enemy and the enemy is not far, why is it so long? ”

The officer who had just answered the question took the baton, pointed to several rising areas between us and the enemy, and explained, "Your Excellency, please look here, these places are inserted between the enemy and us, and there are several high mountains.

Judging from the map and the reconnaissance of our army, these high mountains are a few dangerous mountains in the Hufeiling Mountain Range, which are not only extremely high, but also very dangerous.

If you want to outflank the enemy, you have to pass through these mountains, although it looks inconspicuous on the sand table, but it is indeed very rugged and difficult, and it is very troublesome for our army's heavy equipment and supplies to march in such an area.

In one day, it is already the fastest speed of our army to abandon heavy equipment and advance lightly.

If according to the original plan, our army should bypass these high mountains, wait for the enemy to advance another 10 kilometers or so, and then carry out the encirclement and annihilation plan after reaching the slightly easier mountainous areas. ”

Chen Xin stared at the mountain for a long time, and his heart kept surging with the only battle plan that could be remedied at this time, and then overturned it.

Just establishing, overthrowing, repeating over and over again, I just can't make up my mind.

He furrowed his brows, and finally, pointing to a few peaks between us and the enemy, asked, "Is it the terrain here that is dangerous, or is it the terrain in that area of Panmunjom?" ”

This sudden question caused the venue to fall into silence, and after everyone looked at each other for a while, they all understood, and no one at the scene knew about this problem.

So, several staff officers immediately got up and walked to several large-scale maps hanging on the wall, picked up an abacus and a pen and paper and began to calculate.

The remaining officers dug through the documents and information they had preserved, preparing to get the answers from the documents.

About five minutes later, a slightly messy but unmistakable comparison chart was placed in front of Chen Xin.

After a comprehensive analysis, everyone believed that the terrain near Panmunjom was relatively dangerous, it was a mountain range that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it was also close to the enemy's rear, so it was convenient to transport supplies.

In other words, if the 30,000 Houjin troops who entered the mountain were let go, when the time came, if they wanted to carry out the next stage of the operation, they would have to pay an unpredictable and greater price to make up for today's mistakes.

Chen Xin waited until the adjutant next to him finished reading the summary report to everyone, and then said in a slow voice, "Everyone has heard it, after considering the situation in all aspects, this group of enemies must not be let go."

Therefore, I decided to adjust the first battle plan and gradually and successively put into combat forces in batches according to the distance between the battalions and the enemy, so as to encircle the enemy. ”

Everyone looked at each other together, "Isn't this a tactic to add fuel?" Isn't your lord having a fever? How could such a plan that violates military principles be proposed? ”
