Chapter 51

The beacon fire lasted for three months, and the family letter was worth 10,000 dollars. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Since the fire in June, it has been September and autumn in the blink of an eye. It was originally a lush jungle, but at this moment, due to the arrival of the climate, the green and moist green dress was faded and replaced with a slightly yellowed skirt, some of which exposed brown rocks, making this skirt look tattered, and it seemed that the forest that should have given birth to living beings did not have half the spirit.

Occasionally, in the mountains and rivers, you can also see bursts of gunpowder smoke rising with the rumbling cannon, which is the embers of the tiger squatting cannon. With the rumbling of cannons, the once hard sentry tower was quickly reduced to ruins, and no piece of armor could be preserved.

After that, a squadron immediately trained the bombarded cottage to break into it, and no matter how the Tartars in front of them resisted, they rushed up and killed them all, and then planted a military flag painted with a red phoenix high on the top of the mountain, shouting loudly.

"Have you already taken the 203rd Heights?"

Entrenched on the top of the mountain, Xiao Feng looked at the bright red flag that was raised, and his heart settled down a little.

In the distance, a general immediately walked up to her side, immediately bowed his head and said: "The 1032nd, 2031st, and 3033rd combat battalions have been taken, with seventeen dead and forty-three wounded. A total of 133 enemies were annihilated and 513 prisoners were captured. ”

"Good! Destroy all of the opponent's strongholds. ”

said quite approvingly, but Xiao Feng raised his head, looked at Yushe City in the distance, and said with a smile: "In the past three months, the other party has been annihilated by us more than 3,000 people. In the face of such a loss, I want to see how long Monk Nahe Batu can endure in Yushe City and not show up!"

"My subordinates understand!"

This will immediately retreat, ready to mobilize forces and take out those strongholds.

After going through the previous training, they were already familiar with the characteristics of mountain warfare.

One combat battalion cut off the opponent's way, and the other two combat battalions formed horns with each other, surrounded them, and then took out the thirty tiger squat cannons under their command and fired them in turns, so that for two or three days, completely destroying the opponent's city defense and will to fight, and finally sending soldiers to follow them and break into it, clearing the remnants of the forces.

This tactic has been in place for more than three months since the start of training, and with the majesty of the new Tiger Squat Cannon, it can annihilate the opponent so easily.

"Lord, what should we do next?"

Behind Xiao Feng, a young man stepped forward and asked.

He was called Zhao Zhi, because he stole the food of the master's family when he was young, in order to avoid being killed, he fled to the mountains, and was later discovered by Zhao Chen, who was secretly training in the Taihang Mountains at that time, and then joined the Red Phoenix Army, and it has been more than seven years now.

After concentrating on cultivation for seven years before, he had already cultivated the three realms of refining the body to perfection, and after transferring to the "Five-Star Battle World Decision", his cultivation improved rapidly, and he quickly cultivated the method of visualization.

At this time, Zhao Zhi only needs to come to the door to refine the true yuan in his own body, reaching a point that ordinary people can't reach.

Crossing the wilderness, Xiao Fenghe looked at the Yushe City hidden in the mountains, although his eyes were a little anxious, he still restrained himself and pretended to be calm, and said, "Let's go back to Hebei Town first." After all, there were still more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Yushe City, and such a huge army could not be defeated in a short time. So I'll go back later. ”

At this moment, she is in Hebei Town, twenty miles away from Yushe, where all the elites of the Red Feng Army are stationed, and in order to cut off the fortress established by Monk He around Yushe City, she sent a team to pull out one by one, in case these eyesore will adversely affect the entire battle situation in the next decisive battle.

In the temporary lobby, a sand table with a radius of more than a foot has been placed in the center, and there are all the generals standing around it, they are frowning at the sand table made by the craftsmen in the army, and put some carved small flags and dolls representing soldiers on it, and their minds are quietly speculating on the next move of the other party.

This sand table was made by Xiao Feng's craftsmen in the army, and in order to improve the terrain, she even sent her soldiers to personally reconnoitre, so as to survey the terrain and make sure that there was no building.

It can be said that on this sand table, whether it is the mountain stream, the river, or even the valley or basin, all of them are unobstructed and clear.

And in this hall, there are still more than 20 young generals, all of whom look at Xiao Feng who walked in here with a look of reverence.

With that Zhao Zhi's general background, they are also from a poor peasant family in Luzhou, and because they had a feud with the Tartars when they were young, they went away and flew away and were rescued by the passing Chifeng Army, and then taught them to read and write, and taught Xuangong secrets, although the days were hard, they finally survived, so they revered Xiao Feng who saved him very much, as if he regarded it as his own faith and worship.

"Yang Hui, you are the chief of staff of the General Staff, can you tell me how the monk Nahe Badu will act?"

Although the Zhonghua Sect was established, and many institutions such as the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Zhonghua Sect were also established, Xiao Feng naturally could not entrust them with all the rights in the army, so in the blink of an eye, she gathered those young people with considerable potential and strength in the Chifeng Army and established the General Staff Council, which was responsible for the command and combat functions of the entire Chifeng Army.

By this time, the General Staff was up and running, and was ready to discuss how to deal with the enemy in front of them.

"According to our analysis. Nahe and Shangba will have three choices. ”

With a slightly embarrassed face, Yang Hui took out a wooden stick, pointed to the sand table, and said slowly: "The first one is to shrink in Yushe City, and then Feixin passed on Shi Tianze and Yan Shi, and ordered them to send troops to rescue. This is the best option, but it will take at least two months for reinforcements to arrive. And in these two months, I'm afraid he may not be able to support it. ”

"The second is to retreat. Leaving 8,000 men and horses to pinn us down here, while its 4,000 soldiers and horses retreated, and moved south from Taiyuan Mansion to gather the troops of Fenzhou, so that Fenzhou would have 9,000 soldiers and horses. Then the other party can directly attack Luzhou from Qinzhou, so that we and others will be attacked in the abdomen. This is also the usual tactic of Mongolia, and with the opponent's many years of combat experience, this plan is most likely to be implemented. Of course, depending on the speed of the opponent's march, it will take at least a month. ”

"The third is to give up defending the city, and then divide the army into two ways. One way to join the soldiers and horses of Fenzhou, the other way is to go east into Liaozhou, and then detour to Shexian to attack Licheng, which will make it difficult for us to help each other, and then completely wipe out us. After all, our forces are too weak, and if we can support the previous road, but if we have to divide our troops to deal with two soldiers and horses, it will be difficult. ”

In the end, Yang Hui couldn't help but feel a little lost.

After all, according to their deduction, Nahe and Shangba would definitely adopt one of these three plans, and each of them was fatal and straight to the point, enough to make the Red Phoenix Army troubled and exhausted in the following battles until they finally failed completely.

"Then what methods do you have?" Xiao Feng asked.

Yang Hui shook his head and said, "Not for the time being." ”

Even if they were equipped with new artillery and could defeat each other one-on-one, they were elite soldiers who had been in war for a long time, and they were at the peak of their military front, and they were not the same as the rotten Qing army at the end of the Manchu Dynasty.

With such an opponent, it is rare for the Red Phoenix Army to be able to temporarily defeat its edge, but if it defeats the opponent, it is not possible to succeed in a short period of time.

"So, we have to do it quickly?"

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Feng looked at the undulating peaks of the mountains, and his mind couldn't help but start to think about the other party's possible actions.

If a full-scale battle is really launched like this, even if the other party is defeated, the Red Phoenix Army is estimated to suffer heavy losses and it will be difficult to support it. After all, the chassis they occupy is too small and the background is too thin, and they can't be like the Mongols and Song dynasties, and they can still pull out a team after losing tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

"That's right. ”

Yang Hui replied: "If Monk Nahe really wants to exterminate us, I'm afraid that there will be changes in the next few days." It can be said that if it weren't for the continuous rainstorm before, I am afraid that the other party would have started to act a long time ago. Fortunately, the lord made a quick decision and directly captured Wuxiang County before the rainstorm began, otherwise I am afraid that we would have become the turtle in the other party's urn at this time. ”

"Heavy rain?" the other snorted.

"Li Chang, what did you think of?" Yang Hui asked.

Li Chang opened his mouth and said: "Lord, do you remember the torrential rain that almost flooded the entire Luzhou City three days ago?" When he talked about the torrential rain, there was a trace of sadness in his eyes, obviously remembering a bad memory.

"Li Chang, I know that your brother once died there, so he has always been a little depressed. ”

Looking at the familiar but unfamiliar appearance, Zhao Zhi couldn't help but sigh a little, thinking about the scene of that day, he couldn't help but feel a little helpless: "But you have to understand, at this time, we should abandon the past and unite as one, otherwise how can we defeat those Tartars and protect the safety of the people in the territory?"

Others may not know, but he understands that Li Zhi, who bravely jumped into the turbidity of the Zhanghe River that day, is Li Chang's cousin, although he is not a brother, he is better than a brother. The two have been dependent on each other since the death of their relatives, but now one of them has died in the line of duty, which makes Li Chang feel anxious and doesn't know what to do.

Li Chang also said with sadness: "I know, but you should also understand that he is my only relative. I will never forget that time. ”

"Zhao Zhi, I think Li Chang should have some ideas at this time, why don't you let him talk about it?" Waving his hand to signal the two to be quiet, Xiao Feng said slowly.

Zhao Zhi immediately retreated, and then Li Chang walked to the sand table, took a few small stones, and said, "I think you all know that there was a torrential rain in Luzhou before, which lasted for more than seven days, so that the entire Luzhou was almost submerged. Since this is the case in Luzhou, then it makes no sense that the same is true for Yushe City. You must know that next to the city of Yushe is Wuxiang water, and at this time of the year, what is the state of the water in Wuxiang, I think you also understand. Therefore, if we build a dam upstream to store water, and send a person to block the river downstream, then the water potential of the entire Yushe City will rise, and then we can take advantage of the water potential to directly break into the Yushe City and kill the other party without a single crop. ”

Speaking of the back, his face was calm, but it was rare with a ruthless experience.

"'Flooded Seven'?"

Xiao Feng immediately laughed, in this "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Guan Yu's battle to deter Cao Wei is quite famous.

On that day, Guan Yu used his familiarity with the local situation to use a flood to annihilate tens of thousands of Cao Wei's soldiers and horses, and even forced Cao Cao to consider moving the capital to avoid the edge.

"That's right. And according to past experience, there will be several consecutive rainstorms after this, although not as majestic as before, but it is enough for the dam to store enough rainwater to completely flood the entire Yushe City. At that time, the monk Nahe will definitely decide to leave, and we only need to place artillery on the bank of the river to bombard the troop carriers all the way, and we will definitely cause heavy losses to the other side. Full of joy, Li Chang felt more and more that his plan was quite perfect.

"But what if the other party can't hold on?"

Yang Hui also felt that this plan was quite perfect, but he also knew that if the other party could not hold on, then they were afraid that it would be difficult to defeat the other party.

"We can attack the opposing fleet. You must know how big the opponent's army is, and the consumption of people eating and chewing is very large, so it is necessary to rely on Wuxiang water to transport food and wages. And we only need to send a squadron to secretly attack those grain carriers, which will definitely turn the opponent's naval army back, so as to ensure that the logistics will not be cut off. When the other party's empty door opens, we can also use this to directly penetrate the opponent's vital position and completely divide and isolate the other party in Yushe City. They can't move, and they can only be slaughtered by us. Thinking about the scene when the time came to flood the city of Yushe, Li Zhi also began to get excited, joined in and began to discuss.

"Good. Then you negotiate a battle plan, and send your troops to start building dams to store water in preparation for the battle that follows. When the time comes, it will definitely make those bastards pay the price of blood. Xiao Feng immediately replied, letting these young staff officers begin to participate in the entire operation.

It wasn't until she had become a force and had a large army at her disposal that she understood why the leaders always seemed to be quite busy, and always immersed in official documents, not even for a short period of leisure.

There is no way, there are too many things that a force needs to deal with, and it cannot be done by one person.

It is precisely because of this that Xiao Feng has established many organizations, the purpose of which is to help her accomplish many things, so as to lay a solid foundation for complete victory.

Like the protagonists of other novels, it is really unimaginable to be able to travel and explore while ensuring the development of power. (To be continued.) )
