【Chapter 489】Let him take a detour when he hears his name!
Xu Xingxia sat on a low stool, his eyes falling on the top of the Naturalization City. Mo Yuegen was already very annoyed when he came to make trouble, but now, this Lin Danhan came to intervene again, which made Xu Xingxia feel even more annoyed. If you don't want to teach Lin Danhan a hard lesson, it's impossible. This guy is really healed and forgot the pain, just like a fly in a pit. This time, how can we teach Lin Dan Khan a hard lesson?
Lin Dan Khan tried to attack Ningxia Town this time, he should have felt that Ningxia Town's troops were very empty, and it was possible to fall in one fell swoop. In fact, Lin Dan Khan's speculation is not too wrong. If the white-clothed army is an ordinary army, in order to deal with Mo Yuegen, it is absolutely necessary to use all the strength to eat milk. Therefore, it is unlikely that there will be any troops left in Ningxia Town. When he suddenly kills, he will inevitably be able to catch the white-clothed army by surprise and win easily.
It's a pity that the White Army is not an ordinary army. The muskets of the White Coats were far superior to those of other armies, both in power and range. Rifled guns were a sharp weapon against cavalry. Therefore, the white-clothed army does not need to take out all the strength to eat milk to deal with Mo Yuegen. At this point, Lin Dan Khan made a fatal mistake. In fact, the strength of the white-clothed army in Ningxia Town is not very vacant.
The Xiongqu army led by Lin Dacheng, with a total strength of 3,000 people, was stationed at Zhenyuan Pass. Zhenyuan Pass has strong cement and concrete fortifications, a large number of trebuchets, and some of the cannons captured in Ningxia City were later installed on top of Zhenyuan Pass. It is conceivable that with such a powerful firepower and such a powerful fortress, it is impossible for Lin Dan Khan to want to kill from here. With the strength of the nomads, even if hundreds of thousands of troops went south, it would be impossible to capture Zhenyuan Pass.
The various units of the Snow Shame Army, together with more than 1,500 people, were stationed near the Black Mountain Battalion, ready to reinforce Zhenyuan Pass or other fortress passes. In addition, there are also some eagle cavalry and eagle cavalry soldiers, stationed in various passes of Helan Mountain. With them stationed and with the help of strong fortifications, it was still very difficult for outsiders to force their way in. At the beginning, Xu Xingxia used more than 100 musketeers to firmly block Mo Yuegen, and also made him suffer huge losses, until now Mo Yuegen still remembers it vividly.
The boot training camp of the Montenegrin battalion is also trained by several thousand recruits. They are all recruits who are ready to be replenished to the units or expanded into the troops. For the time being, they trained with weapons such as the Bird Gun and the Thunderbolt captured from the champion. However, the process of these weapons is not much different from that of the Moon Gun. If the situation is dangerous, these recruits, as long as they get the Yue Yue Gun, can go directly into battle.
In addition, in the Bayannur grassland, the cavalry army led by Zhang Quanfu had a full 8,000 people. This force can also be mobilized in the event of a dangerous situation. Xu Xingxia didn't think that Lin Dan Khan had such a great ability to attack Ningxia Town and Bayannur Grassland at the same time. Intelligence from all sides shows that Lin Dan Khan came directly to Ningxia Town this time. Speaking of which, his hatred for himself is really deep!
Yulin City was conquered, and Chi Hu's shooting army could also be mobilized at any time. There are also 8,000 people in the Shooting Sound Army, which is a very strong force. After the battle of Yulin City, he has been trained in actual combat, and his combat effectiveness will definitely be greatly improved. Wherever it is placed, it can create an imbalance of power on the ground. Even if the Shooting Voice Army directly encounters Lin Dan Khan's iron lance cavalry, it can be face-to-face, and it will definitely not be at a disadvantage.
In fact, to contain the imperial army coming from the east, it is enough to have Mao Thirteen's leopard cavalry. Judging from the information provided by Xuan Yingwei, the imperial court is obviously preparing to borrow a knife to kill people, and is not ready to go into battle with bare arms for the time being. In fact, even if the imperial court killed him, Xu Xingxia didn't think it was a big deal. Whether they can reach Yansui Town or not depends on two words. Judging from the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers that the white-clothed army has come into contact with, it really makes Xu Xingxia not interested.
If it was just to drive Lin Danhan away, or to intimidate Lin Danhan so that he didn't dare to come to Ningxia Town for trouble, Xu Xingxia still had a lot of ways. In some ways, it is enough to use two separate units, the Eagle Cavalry and the Eagle Cavalry. It's just that Xu Xingxia doesn't really want to drive Lin Danhan away. He wanted to teach Lin Danhan a hard lesson, so that he could see himself in the future, no, when he heard his name, he subconsciously took a detour.
I have to say that Lin Dan Khan, this guy, is really a bit forgetful. Last time in Baihuze, he beat Lin Danhan hard, causing him to lose more than 10,000 people, but Lin Danhan still didn't accept the lesson, and retracted in less than a few months, and was ready to make a comeback. As the future Great Khan of the Mongols, his actions are indeed a bit naïve, as if there is a sense of hysteria. Did he lose his mind because of Bai Huze's failure, or did he never have his mind in the first place? Xu Xingxia expressed deep doubts.
This time, no matter what, Lin Dan Khan will suffer even greater losses. Losing 10,000 people doesn't make you learn a lesson, so let you lose another 30,000 or 50,000 people. Only by beating Lin Dan Khan's vital force fiercely can Lin Dan Khan feel his terrible. At the same time, defeating Lin Dan Khan's vital force will also be beneficial for attacking Guihua City in the future. How can you not eat the fat that comes to your door?
Sniper?
Encircle?
Xu Xingxia pondered carefully.
There are currently two basic plans for dealing with Lin Dan Khan. One is to block and give Lin Dan Khan a painful journey, as if it was the last time. First, the Eagle Cavalry and the Eagle Cavalry were used to block and harass Lin Dan Khan's troops, making it difficult for them to move an inch. , every step forward, comes at a heavy price. The other is the encirclement. It was on the way of Lin Dan Khan's march that he didn't do anything, and when he arrived at the designated place, he mobilized all his troops, pressed it at once, and directly surrounded him and destroyed him.
If it is a blockade, the preparations that the white army needs to do are not very much. Originally, all this was familiar. This is how the last battle of White Tiger Ze was executed. The problem is that the effect of blocking may not be very good. Blocking and harassing are actually petty fights, and a larger part of the initiative in the battle is in the hands of Lin Dan Khan. In case Lin Dan Khan felt that the situation was not good and retracted back to Naturalization City, it would be meaningless. The final result of the blockade may be to bite off a piece of flesh from Lin Dan Khan's body, making him feel pain, but not allowing him to be fatally injured.
If it was surrounded, Lin Dan Khan would have been seriously injured. With the strength of the white-clothed army, if Lin Dan Khan is surrounded, there should be no problem in killing his twenty or thirty thousand people. As long as 30,000 Mongol cavalry are killed, the white-clothed army will be considered to have achieved its goal. 30,000 cavalry, for Lin Dan Khan, is already an unbearable number. After experiencing such heavy losses, it is estimated that Lin Dan Khan is definitely cowering in the Naturalization City and will never dare to come out again.
Judging from the map, the only place to set up the encirclement is near Zhenyuan Pass. Here is Zhenyuan Pass in the south, the Gobi Desert in the north, the Yellow River in the east, and the Great Desert in the west. Only here can the white-clothed army wait for work, quickly mobilize troops, and surround Lin Dan Khan. Specifically, it was the white-clothed army inside Ningxia Town that blocked the Zhenyuan Pass, so that Lin Dan Khan could not advance. At the same time, the Xiao cavalry army moved south from the north, and the shooting army pressed over from the east, holding the line of the Yellow River, and surrounded Lin Dan Khan in the middle from three sides.
Of course, this is only a general idea, and there are still many difficulties in implementing it. Lin Dan Khan is not stupid, will he realize in advance that Zhenyuan Pass is a trap? If he senses it's a trap, it's not interesting. No matter how naïve he is, it is impossible for him to continue to stay with his troops and crash headlong into the encirclement. Other factors may also affect whether or not the siege can be carried out smoothly.
For example, whether the Xiao cavalry army can go south smoothly, whether the shooting sound army can move westward smoothly, whether there will be any emergencies at that time, and so on. Or, will Mo Yuegen, a bastard, lead the army to jump out of Gansu Town, and would rather cross the Great Desert than continue to exert pressure on Ningxia Town, etc. If Mo Yuegen and Lin Dan Khan converge, the situation will definitely undergo a fundamental change. All of this must be pondered.
At this time, what Xu Xingxia felt the most strongly was radio. How nice it would be if there were radios! His subordinates are all cavalry and have strong mobility. If there is a radio, a force of 10,000 people can be used as 30,000 people. Unlike now, it was too time-consuming to convey orders. The place was big, and it became difficult for the cavalry to communicate. Even from Gansu Town to Ningxia Town, it would take two days and two nights for the cavalry to arrive at night. It came and went, and it was four days, which was too much time.
However, this suggestion can still be carefully considered. The location of Gulang City is not good, and when I go back to Ningxia City, I can organize special personnel to analyze and evaluate this plan. If it is feasible, Lin Dan Khan will definitely jump into the big pocket this time. This gift is not insignificant!
"Communications Division! Come! There is an order! Xu Xingxia suddenly shouted.
"My lord, what are your orders?" A deacon of the Communications Division arrived in a hurry.
"Immediately send someone to inform the tiger and leopard cavalry and the wolf cavalry that there is no need to rush to Gulang City. Turn back to the Montenegrin battalion, rest the troops, and prepare for a new mission. Xu Xingxia said in a deep voice.
"Understood! Inform the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the Wolf Cavalry to return to the Black Mountain Battalion. Said the steward of the Communications Division.
Xu Xingxia nodded, confirmed that it was correct, and the steward of the Communications Department left. Xu Xingxia rubbed his palms vigorously, and paced back and forth in front of the map. After transferring the tiger and leopard cavalry and the wolf cavalry army back, it was impossible for Lin Dan Khan to attack Ningxia Town. At present, Ningxia Town has four troops, including the Xiongqu Army, the Qing Cavalry Army, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and the Wolf Cavalry Army, with a total strength of nearly 10,000 people. If he continues to go out, it means that there is indeed something wrong with his brain. Or, his intelligence spies are all first-class stupid.
However, now, Xu Xingxia hopes that Lin Dan Khan must come. The meal is ready, but the guest does not show up, which of course is not good. Anyway, if the two sides fight, Xu Xingxia will definitely not suffer. also killed 3,000 people in the battle, and his pressure was much easier than Lin Dan Khan. What's more, judging from the results of the battle of Baihuze, one life of the white-clothed army can be exchanged for at least five lives of the Mongols, and this account is completely done.
The existence of Lin Dan Khan is actually a very dangerous existence for the Bayannur grassland. If Lin Dan Khan's vital force had not been wiped out, it was estimated that his raid on the Bayannur grassland would not stop. In other words, it is the main force of the white-clothed army stationed in the Bayannur grassland, and it is difficult to free up their hands to do other things. A force of 8,000 people was nailed to the Bayannur grassland and could not maneuver, which was certainly not what Xu Xingxia wanted to see. The 8,000-strong troops, if mobilized, can do many, many things.
"Someone, notify the nearest members of the Military Commission to hold a meeting." Xu Xingxia pondered for a moment, and then commanded. His plan is only a general meaning, and some places may not be very well thought out. Or some of the risks are not taken into account. Let's listen to everyone's opinions. It never hurts to brainstorm and work together.
Soon, the committee members in the vicinity of Gulang City all arrived. Actually, there are not many people. According to the relevant regulations, only those who are above the commander are eligible to become committee members, and the deputy commanders are not allowed. Count and count, that is, Gao Jie, Zhang Yi, Xia Kewu, Liu Heng, Liu Chuang, Gao Yigong and several others. The last thing to come is a high achievement. By the way, he brought the latest news to Xu Xingxia. Those cannons captured from the rebels. It has already crossed the highest end of the watershed and is on its way down. In two days at the latest, the cannon will be able to enter Gulang City.
"Excellent! Thank you all for your efforts! Xu Xingxia said with satisfaction.
In the past few days, according to the report of the observation post, the Tartars under Mo Yuegen's command have been very active, as if there are signs of breaking the cauldron and launching a final blow. Xu Xingxia estimated that Mo Yuegen might indeed be unwilling to be blocked like this, and wanted to make a real attack. At this time, it is really good that the cannon was delivered in time. With the help of eighty cannons, Mo Yuegen was only afraid that he would hit his head even more.
