Chapter 392 Description of the error
More than 200,000 Tatar cavalry invaded the border and were repelled by the border guards many times, annihilated more than 50,000 enemies, and seized more than 7,000 intact war horses.
According to the investigation of the scouts, the Tatar army had been scattered into many groups and moved away in all directions. Wang Shengrong speculated that the Tatar army had given up invading the border and killed more than 50,000 Tatars in battle. They were all young and middle-aged, which was definitely a huge blow to the Tatars, which were originally small.
No matter how stupid the Tatar commander was, he did not get much results when he was killed or injured, and he would choose to retreat.
Wang Shengrong thought about it. Since the Tatars had retreated and the People's Army won a great victory, the number of casualties of its own was only about one thousand, so we can promote this war well.
Many areas in the north have been attacked by Tatars, and some relatives were killed by Tatars, which have deep hatred with the Tatars.
Promoting the People's Army's record of defeating more than 200,000 Tatar cavalry and annihilated more than 50,000 enemies will definitely make these people who have a deep hatred of the Tatars accept the People's Army faster.
Just as Wang Shengrong was preparing to promote the war between the People's Army and the Tatars in the northern region, the report of the Tatars' invasion of the border was finally delivered to Wuchang City.
Hu Zhuang looked at the battle report and frowned. The battle report showed that more than 50,000 Tatar cavalry were attacking in the Bohai Sea where the 83rd Division of the People's Army were stationed. The 83rd Division had repelled the enemy once, but the enemy completely retreated and rested far from the attack range of the People's Army. It was suspected that more Tatars would gather.
The Tatars invaded the border, which was expected by the People's Army. The People's Army and the Ming court started the last battle. The Tatars obviously would not miss this opportunity. Spring is the best opportunity.
Hu Zhuang was very clear about the combat effectiveness of the People's Army. The Tatars were mainly cavalry, and the People's Army defended the city. There was no problem with one division of the People's Army resisting the attack of 50,000 Tatars.
If it were a field war, it would be difficult for a division of the People's Army to resist ten thousand Tatar cavalry.
However, there were a lot of Tatars coming, and more Tatars might come. Wuchang City is too far from the Bohai Sea and needs to span half of the land of China. Faced with the attacking Tatars, they can only rely on the First Army led by Wang Shengrong to resist.
Hu Zhuang convened a meeting of officials from the Ministry of War to discuss the Tatars' attack. After discussion, Hu Zhuang decided to draw five musket regiments from the People's Army stationed in the area south of the Yellow River to support the north.
As long as you imagine the Tatars attacking the city walls garrisoned by the infantry, you can guess that musketeers are the best troops to deal with the Tatars, so the Ministry of War decided to draw five muskete regiments to support the north.
It only takes time to send the orders from the Ministry of War to the front, and it also takes time to mobilize five musket regiments to the border. Before reinforcements arrive, I hope there will be no problems with the border.
The war reports of the Tatars' invasion of the border continued to be sent south to Guangzhou City. When the first war reports were passed on, the second war reports had been sent to Wuchang City.
The second battle report said that the 83rd Division sent people out of the city to clean the battlefield. The Tatars thought they could take advantage of the opportunity and launched a charge at the Bohai Station again, and were repelled by the Bohai Station for the second time.
The Tatars lost more than 10,000 troops in two charges, while the 83rd Division suffered only a few hundred casualties.
"The 83rd Division is doing a good job!" Looking at the battle report, Hu Zhuang gave an evaluation.
Nearly a day later, the third battle report was delivered to Hu Zhuang, and Hu Zhuang stood up excitedly. 150,000 Tatars attacked the Bohai Station and were repelled by reinforcements from the 83rd Division and two musket regiments. He killed more than 25,000 enemies, and the number of casualties on his own side was not as high as yesterday.
Seeing this third battle report, Hu Zhuang felt that the border was stable. A total of 160,000 Tatars attacked the Bohai Station guarded by a division of the People's Army. The People's Army repelled the Tatars at a relatively small price for casualties. Such Tatars really did not pose much threat to the People's Army.
Looking at the battle report, Hu Zhuang had already thought of the scene in his mind where the People's Army left the barrier and entered the grassland and took the initiative to find the Tatars fighting. It is not the style of the People's Army. The best defense is to attack, driving the Tatars away or completely destroying them.
Three battle reports were sent to Guangzhou City. Fang Nan's feelings were similar to Hu Zhuang. The only difference was that he was content with Fang Nan's emotional fluctuations.
Now the People's Army is about to occupy all areas of China. Next, the People's Army will establish a country and shift its focus to internal development. However, the war will not end completely. In a short period of time, the People's Army will not break out with foreign wars, but small-scale wars will continue. After all, there are many enemies outside China.
The Tatars, Jurchens, Japanese pirates, the Dongyu Dynasty and even Westerners.
Compared with internal struggle, Fang Nan prefers to launch foreign wars, and all the things missing from the land of China can be snatched from the outside world.
The common people lack cattle to plow the fields, horses to pull carts, Tatars, and the Oirats. The people's army can fight over the cattle and horses of the Tatars and Oirats.
The people lack farmland, and there is a lot of land outside the land of China. They are killed and robbed the land of aliens for the people to cultivate.
As for snatching precious metals such as gold and silver, it is not important to the People's Army. Fang Nan has made plans and equal coins will be fully circulated in China. Soon, the People's Bank of China will launch "vouchers". When the people accept the vouchers, it will not take long to directly issue paper money instead of gold and silver. At that time, the main function of gold and silver is to be used as jewelry.
If they can be called "interracials", they are all enemies and they don't need to make friends with aliens. Both sides are enemies from beginning to end. Even if both sides are in peace, both sides will not be able to do anything to each other. Once one side has absolute strength, it will take the initiative to provoke a war to conquer the other.
The most misleading description of the land of China outside the land of China was simply the most misleading description. If everyone knew that there was a very rich land outside the land of China, and that gold and silver could be dug, perhaps the footprints of the Chinese people had already been spread all over the world.
Fortunately, it's not too late to start now.
The border war reports were sent to Guangzhou City, and even the last war report was sent, which meant that the war between the People's Army and the Tatars ended. It was just a war that lasted for a few days, but the Tatars lost more than 50,000 people, and the People's Army suffered about 1,000 casualties, and the People's Army won a great victory.
The north has begun publicity under the leadership of Wang Shengrong, and the People's Army Central Government will also begin publicity on battlefield wars.
Most southerners cannot contact the Tatars and do not have much hatred with the Tatars, but this does not hinder the People's Army from propaganda. The Tatars are aliens and enemies, and want to invade the land of China, steal the wealth and food of the people, and bring endless killings.
Such a vicious Tatar was easily defeated by the People's Army, killing 50,000 enemies and winning a great victory!
