General, you seem to have strong confidence in the outcome of this battle. Although deep down in my heart I desperately hope that our Western Xinjiang Army can completely defeat the enemy, but according to my observation, the situation is not very good for us. The enemy's strength should be much stronger than ours, even if We can have the advantage in the early stage, but if we continue to consume like this, I'm afraid we will always be at a disadvantage. By then, I'm afraid the enemy will eventually win the final victory. "Tao Tingzhi did not want to hide his worries, but this proved the calmness in his heart. Even in the face of such a bad situation, he did not have any doubts. He had already put everything he had into the survival of Yunzhong City. Tie tightly together.
"Haha, Mr. Tingzhi, you don't think that I, Lao Ka, are blindly optimistic, do you? Please remember one thing, do not underestimate our Western Xinjiang Army at any time and under any circumstances. I, Kamapov, am not alone. In battle, His Royal Highness King Qin’s arrangements are not something anyone can guess, but please rest assured that Yunzhong City will always be in the hands of our Western Xinjiang." Kamapov grinned and laughed, "Situ Tai's army Although it can be called a powerful force, there is one thing he cannot change, that is, he has never been able to completely unify the ideas of the army in his hands. The logistical supply and funding problems of the Northern Army have determined that their army is afraid of That’s it for now, Mr. Tingzhi, just wait and see.”
Kamapov's calm expression made Tao Tingzhi feel much more at ease. Kamapov's honest appearance always gave people a sense of solidity and reliability, and his words made it impossible to doubt their reliability.
"The pavilion is here waiting for the general's good news. If the general has any other needs, please feel free to send someone to inform the autonomous government. The people of Yunzhong City are united and determined to devote all their strength to defending Yunzhong Mansion. Come on, our desperate volunteer army has organized 30,000 people, and we have organized almost all the young and middle-aged men in the city. They may lack experience and preparation in fighting, but they are competent in other logistical and daily chores, and they are really At the final critical moment, they can still show everything and even their lives for Yunzhong Mansion!" When he said the last sentence, Tao Tingzhi's voice was already a little passionate.
Both Bayinzhuo and Zhebu could smell the sour odor of sweat coming from their bodies, although prairie men did not pay attention to such details, especially during the war. But the continuous long journey still made both of them a little exhausted.
From the moment they received an urgent order requiring the Rangers to return east as soon as possible, the First Ranger Regiment and the Third Ranger Regiment of Bayin Zhuo and Zhebu began to prepare first. Although the Chidi people had seemingly surrendered, , but the Chachin guy’s whereabouts are mysterious, and the hundreds of thousands of troops under his command have never been completely mobilized. This also forced the four Ranger regiments to suppress their anxiety and pretend to be content with it. I wonder if the Chidi people also learned about the tense situation in Western Xinjiang within the Tanghe Empire. Even after reaching an agreement, these guys seemed to have some signs of wanting to go back on their word. Fortunately, the Anou people's retreat still prevented Chidi's senior management from making the determination to completely break out and fight with their side. Although it took a lot of time, In the end, the Chidi people lifted their military mobilization. Only when the hundreds of thousands of Chidi people's non-prepared troops were demobilized and restored to their identity as herdsmen, could the Rangers be able to return eastward with confidence and boldness, but this had already dragged on for too long.
The distance from Barona to the interior of the empire is thousands of miles long, almost crossing the entire central and eastern continents. The four ranger regiments have also received multiple urgent orders from the Military Affairs Administration asking them to speed up their return eastward. , the critical situation in the north has reached a level that may affect the civil war situation in the entire empire. If there is no more reinforcements and investment of effective forces, I am afraid that the northern war situation will really be out of control.
Like a swarm of locusts flying across the sky, a cloud of gray dust rolled up in the fields as the four Ranger regiments passed one after another. The land trampled by more than 200,000 war horses can only be described as **. This is the harm caused by the war to the people. However, in order to speed up the progress, the cavalry can only advance according to their own plans and routes. If every place They all have to go through the main road. I'm afraid the day lilies will be cold by the time we wait.
Yulin Mansion was nominally controlled by the Puer people, but in fact the Puer people only occupied Yulin City. The Puer people did not have much energy to investigate other areas outside the city. The ensuing Yunzhong Battle dragged them away. Going in, they had to focus their main energy there. Only by conquering Yunzhong Mansion could the security of Yulin be consolidated. Otherwise, the Pu people themselves knew how fragile their control in Yulin was.
Bayin Zhuo, Zhebu and the other two ranger regiments crossed the central area of Yulin Prefecture and advanced towards Yunzhong Prefecture non-stop. According to the schedule, they must enter Yunzhong territory tonight, where they can get one day to repair. , and then we must promptly launch an attack on several armies that are besieging Yunzhong Mansion in accordance with the orders issued by the Military Affairs Administration.
"Zhebu, the Military Affairs Administration has sent another urgent order, asking us to carry out repairs in the border area between Yulin and Yunzhong. After the repairs are completed, we will launch an offensive immediately. They have also sent us the specific situation of Yunzhong Mansion. What are the plans? This allows us to make a choice based on our actual situation and judgment. We can either divide our troops into two groups for a surprise attack, or we can concentrate our forces for a strong attack. What do you think?" The riding whip in Bayin Zhuo's hand was already sweating, and he continued for half a minute. Not taking a full bath for a month made both him and Zhebu feel a little uncomfortable, but as a soldier, he had experienced tough things, so he didn't care, but the smell on his body was really unpleasant.
"Well, the troops can be divided into two groups to attack the Poole and the Northern Army at the same time. The effect may be better. However, the intelligence sent from the Military Affairs Office said that the Northern Army performed very fiercely, even surpassing the Kaman people. We can't Don't underestimate it. I can't tell that Chu Taifeng really has two skills. I just don't know that the Northern Army can accurately and timely grasp the news of our arrival. If we rest in this border area for a day, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve the surprise. That's the purpose." Zhebu said thoughtfully, stroking the short curly beard under his chin.
"You want to attack directly without resting?" Bayin Zhuo's eyes lit up, and then he frowned: "I'm afraid not, the boys and men have reached their limit. I'm afraid it will be difficult to continue without rest, and the horses are also a little tired. ah."
"But the enemy will be prepared as soon as they rest. In this land, the enemy's scouts will definitely be densely populated. If you want to catch the enemy by surprise, you can't stop." Didn't Zhebu know that the soldiers are now at the point of exhaustion? To the point where I am afraid that as soon as I give the order to rest on the spot, these soldiers will fall off their horses and fall asleep. After thousands of miles of long journey, tiredness, sleepiness and mental stress, no one can fight with iron, so No one can survive it.
Bayin Zhuo was silent and looked back at the troops that were still advancing rapidly. He had to carefully consider the gains and losses. The purpose of coming back was very clear, which was to break the already very dangerous situation in Yunzhong Mansion and turn the war in favor of Western Xinjiang. The direction of one side has changed, and the best way is to launch a surprise attack. The enemy is now in a very difficult situation. The battle situation has entered an extremely critical moment. Whoever can win at the last moment will win the final victory. And this A war that even affects the entire northern war situation and even the entire empire.
But can the soldiers and horses survive? Looking at the horses with foam at the corners of their mouths, Bayinzhuo was not sure. It was still more than a hundred miles from here to the foot of Yunzhong Fucheng. It was hard to say whether the soldiers and horses could survive this hurdle. If it cannot survive, it will affect the development of the subsequent battle situation.
"Zhebu, I think it will be difficult for all the troops to catch up without rest. We can't bet on one bet. We still have to consider that if something happens, we must be able to deal with it. In this way, I think that among the four rangers In the regiment, you and I will each select five thousand cavalry teams with the best conditions, and each of the other two corps will select three thousand cavalry teams with the best conditions. You will lead them and immediately take a detour from the south without taking a rest. Yunzhong Fucheng launched an attack on the Northern Army. No matter whether it was successful or not, they escaped with one blow. I will lead the remaining troops, and they will rest and recuperate according to the original plan, but the time is reduced to half a day. I will launch targeted attacks based on the actual situation. Attack." As the temporary commander of the entire Rangers, Bayin Zhuo has to think more. Tactical adventures are necessary, but strategic adventures need to be cautious. Once the entire Rangers are in trouble, it may affect the entire Cloud. Depending on the outcome of the battle, he had to think twice before acting.
Bayin Zhuo's decision won Zhebu's heartfelt respect. It seems that the other party's sophistication and thoroughness are indeed worth learning. Although sixteen thousand people seem a little weak, if it can be used as a surprise attack, it will bring The effect will definitely not be bad, and the entire Rangers have indeed reached the end of their strength. The bowstring will fail if it is tightened for a long time. Zhebu knows this very well.
A series of orders were immediately issued, with people shouting and horses neighing, and the ministries immediately adjusted and deployed accordingly. More than 10,000 of the most elite of the four ranger regiments were immediately selected to form the assault vanguard, and the best horses belonged to them. , they will create a piece of history and travel thousands of miles to compose the most beautiful piece of music.
