As the nearest Liangtai Yard to the rear of the Taiping Army—in the city of Zhuji, Lu Yan, who accompanied the military historian, held a stack of manuscripts and walked through the courtyard. I saw a lot of clerks and officials coming around, Qizui Heze and Pingdi Shang had become a new battlefield with constant conflicts.
On one of the rugged hills, Wang Dun'er, trembling all over, followed behind the young Taiping Thief who had led him out of the battle, with his mouth wide open and silent for a long time looking at the battlefield where Zaojin was fighting.
He already regretted this decision to go to the battlefield to help in order to eat something good. After witnessing with his own eyes the scenes of tens of thousands of horses fighting and fighting, he became more and more sincere and afraid that he could hardly feel the slightest sense of security.
Especially since a well-equipped Taiping thief, ah no, it is the Taiping Army; on the edge of the grass at the mouth of the Sancha River in the distance, surrounded by various carts and set up a camp;
After building a cross-river bridge with the materials loaded and unloaded from the vehicle, it almost became a target of public criticism in the battlefield, and attracted various soldiers and horses of southern Zhejiang who were waiting and swimming nearby to attack.
And the hill he was on became a dangerous place for those enemy troops to send people over to explore; fortunately, the location they chose was rare and steep and remote, so they were never discovered.
However, this fight was the scene of two days and one night; Wang Dun'er had to be frightened and shrunk among the rocks on the top of the hill. The mosquito bitten by the wind and the sun ate a little bit of water and ate hard compressed dry food for two days. .
In the midst of several flags of reciprocating offensive battles, endless fighting and fireworks; Wang Dun'er thought for a few times that this stronghold would be over in the next moment, but it turned out that it was the ones who came to attack and retreated. Southern Zhejiang Army Horse.
There was even one time when a man and horse came to the upper wind of the car camp on a whim, and then used firewood cut down nearby to pave a temporary road in the grass as a means of sneak attacking the car camp behind the river.
At this time, their preconceived and hidden posts and eyeliners were finally put to use; just a combination of small lenses and lights made the intention of this southern Zhejiang army ambush in the raging flames. Sinochem is in nothing.
In the end, although they successfully demolished and burned most of the temporary bridge, they still had trouble with this temporary car camp.
On the contrary, these seem to be prepared for the Taiping Army, which was further consolidated and strengthened by digging soil and trenching to divert water during the battle.
However, the existence of this stronghold was turned into a small new logo on the local large sand table in the large Chinese army tent at the rear more than ten miles away; there was also a sound in the sound of the plucking, The generals on standby in the tent explained in public:
"This is the true meaning of hard fights and dull warfare. It is also a combination part of the slowly advancing nail tactics... to fully reflect and give play to the relative strength of the army and the relative advantages in manpower and material resources... "
"The point is that after opening up the situation and gaps in a certain area through the first-moving elite troops, these mixed heavy-duty troops loaded with equipment, vehicles and ships can quickly fill them up, occupying some partial or secondary key nodes and important points. Where."
"In this process, the early reconnaissance and prospecting work is indispensable and very important; therefore, once they have a foothold near the preset point, they will be a relatively stable battlefield support point..."
"It can provide nearby friendly forces and other affiliates with corresponding inability to launch and transport, and provide some battlefield deterrence within the corresponding range..."
"In this way, it will gradually be pressed into the local battlefield. The soldiers and horses of southern Zhejiang that are in the middle of the canine teeth will change their battle situation and the balance of power, and eventually force them to attack and pull out.
"This involves the second stage of combat countermeasures. The formation of a strong village is to rely on and attract these forward support points, and gradually consume the active force of the enemy's active offensive in a relatively favorable defense."
"Fighting in a dull war is when the enemy's strength is exhausted or the enemy is retreating, it does not emphasize too much pursuit and more expansion of the results of the blind pursuit of stability and survival. Because their main task is to stick to it, in order to achieve division and separation. Battlefield and supporting effects."
"In this way, the tens of thousands of units of vehicles and ships that our army has successively ordered in Suchang, Lake and Hangzhou and other places have been requisitioned and mobilized, and they can be put into great use one after another. Because small boats can be loaded on the road, and vehicles can also be transported by water. When you get to the place, you can lay out and expand into a front line and defense.
"In addition, it is the use of corresponding firearms to ensure that there is a long-lasting kill projection as a means of defense; this way, even if it is a mixed stronghold of war fronts, garrisons, auxiliary soldiers, and civil servants, they can also support a space in the turn of offense and defense. It is expected that only a few days will be required"
"This kind of step-by-step vehicle formation method was also used by our army when fighting in the north, but because the area is flat and there are no lack of mobile horse teams and riding large animals, the effect of actual blockade and partition is not good. Not as expected..."
"But in this water town in southern Zhejiang, it's completely different. There is no source of horsemen and soldiers suitable for galloping and advancing, and the activities of boats and boats are severely restricted because they blocked the rivers in advance. ."
"This is the other way around, giving our army the horse team (assault and riding) and the boat division, which are used as theater partitions and mobile standby, to disperse, assault and annihilate the advantageous fighter..."
"As long as the enemy is caught in the forward stronghold and refuses to stop the loss in time, it means that there is a greater probability of being attacked by the navy division and the cavalry team... This is the corresponding tactics. The third phase."
"In this way, even if it is inevitable that a part of the forward outposts will be lost in the end, it is still difficult to change and reverse. In the end, the battlefield situation and the balance of power will evolve in a direction that greatly benefits our army."
"In other words, if the other party wants to get rid of this unfavorable situation of entanglement and restraint, it must find ways to concentrate and gather more forces to form a local overwhelming advantage of scale. This also means this period of frontal decisive battle. Not far away."
"As for the soldiers and horses of southern Zhejiang Province, they may be broken into pieces, and they may be harassed and contained in the mountains, forests and grasslands.... Judging from the current situation, I don’t think these are mainly local groups, suppression and defense. People and horses will have this kind of organization and execution..."
"Or there will be some partial spontaneous behaviors, but it is difficult to form a large-scale and large-scale joint force and coordination. After all, most of them are soldiers from the countryside, not the formal imperial government that is customary and prohibited..."
"Then next, it's time to see how Zhang (self-encouraging) Wu Wei (general general) responds and accepts the move..."
Hearing this, being at the top and watching Zhou Huaian in the middle of the sand table deduction also means a lot. (End of this chapter)
