Chapter four hundred and twenty first shock
Chapter 421 Shocking
The news of Chi Lei's attack from the northwest of the northern grassland to the south's advance base, and then to the Benlangyuan, catching up with Ye Tao, who had already set off for Yejiabao. Since there was no complete communication system on the northern grassland, the flying eagle teleportation distance was long, so don't expect to have telegrams and other good things that everyone has been accustomed to. The news was delayed for several days. The situation in the northern grassland was settled, and he was preparing to bring a total of 50,000 elite troops to finally suppress the Korka tribe, forcing them to surrender to immediately march north. Since tribes such as Gassa and Kyrgyzs friendly said that they would provide basic food and horse supplies along the way, this time, Tan Weiran's requirements for the speed of the march were astonishing. The baggage battalion also used the original stockpiled preparations to stabilize the northern grassland.
Part of the supplies were allocated first, while they were in front of the large-scale operation that was confronting the sand thieves, and part of them were handed over to tribes such as Gassa and Kyrgyzs, as well as providing them with supplies and various other convenient compensation for Tan Weiran's army. Under the rapid response system of Yunzhou, the materials temporarily called by the logistics battalion could soon be replenished. However, there were some problems in escorting supplies. Because Tan Weiran's army moved too fast, the logistics battalion could not keep up, and the materials transported could not be lost. As a result, the two Warriors who had just gathered and trained nearby for a while and had not yet been completely regularized were responsible for this matter. This was the first time that the Warriors performed battlefield duties as regular troops, and the soldiers who were well-equipped and luxuriously equipped were extremely excited.
Yunzhou suddenly had nearly 70,000 troops entering the country. The northern grassland tribes, who had been afraid of being beaten, were silent. They provided many conveniences along the way, and even provided many "recreational projects" beyond supplies. However, at this time, they realized the iron-like military discipline and the combination of relaxation and tension of the Yunzhou army.
After all, Tan Weiran was born in the Dongping royal family and was very powerful in handling popularity. He quietly refused all bad arrangements for the army, but did not offend those tribes and did not deal with them in a tough and reckless manner. Instead, he brought in a lot of reinforcements. When Tan Weiran strongly intervened in the front line that was already in full swing and consumed the stock of various shells to only one-third of the stock, his command would have an army of 100,000.
Since the Gasa tribe and the Kyrgyz tribe both obeyed the head of the troops left by Chi Lei, the heavy equipment battalion commander Zhu Jin was dispatched by the three parties, and after the three parties coordinated, they were faced with the superior performance of the heavy equipment battalion and infantry battalion. Although they were facing batches of at least similar numbers to their own side, most of them had to have a lot of more enemy troops. They had already captured several formations in a row, but the loss ratio was still good. At least it was imagined by the previous Gasa and Kyrgyz tribes.
There are many fewer ones. And it is really refreshing to cooperate with the troops in Yunzhou. When the army meets, the victory is about to come, and the army is even more motivated. Indeed, nothing can enhance mutual understanding and cultivate feelings better than fighting the enemy side by side. If the army of the two tribes obeyed the leaders of the Yunzhou military because they did not want to cause trouble to their tribe, now in front of Tan Weiran, they are sincerely convinced.
Tan Weiran is different from Chi Lei. Although Chi Lei was quite sure when he led the troops to set off, impulse was still the main emotion. Tan Weiran was so young and was not much more peaceful than Chi Lei's impulse, but he was used to all kinds of things. He followed Tan Weiran, who seemed to have fallen and didn't feel anything, and Tan Weiran, who was confused with his sister Tan Weixin and his brother-in-law Ye Tao, also looked calm in front of these strange tribes, but the questions he asked were very fatal.
"How many sand thieves have been wiped out now? Are you sure to organize a long-distance march to pick up Chi Lei's headquarters? How long can the logistics supply be supported and how large-scale wars can be fought? So far, are there any plans to revenge the active attacks of sand thieves?..."
"Report to Your Highness, we have a plan here. We have been fighting so hard these days, and the staff has also been in the front line rotation and has not had time to do detailed content." An inconspicuous officer said seriously and respectfully.
This guy is named Xu Chao, a battalion commander of the Light Infantry Battalion. He is the one who has worked hardest in the past few days. He is responsible for the defense of the entire camp, the coordination and negotiations between the two tribes, the collection and sorting of various internal intelligence and materials. Especially the rotation of officers and soldiers is the one who is responsible for it. Under the close attack of the enemy, the parties have been investing just the right amount of troops, always allowing some soldiers to rest, which ensures that the entire army's lineup has not collapsed after so many days. Xu Chao, the originally unknown guy, also amazed the leaders of the two tribes... In fact, such an officer in Yunzhou can only lead one battalion. Although Xu Chao never interferes in combat decision-making, the coordination and organizational ability he demonstrates far exceeds the number of troops he commands.
In Yunzhou, this is true. Because the quality of the army is generally high, the requirements for officers have increased. Unlike the first batch of battalions, the selection of the past resumes, the second batch and the third batch of battalions have almost all had some special skills, and it would not work completely with qualifications. If you cannot take some skills in the internal selection to convince your colleagues, it is almost impossible to get a position at the level of battalions. After becoming a battalion, various training will follow one after another.
After being a battalion for half a year, he did not have the ability to master several times the strength of a battalion and had no vision of large-scale combat. He was probably transferred to a civilian position in the battalion position after one year of office, or to other departments of the Yunzhou Command. A person like Xu Chao who can make the internal work of the large corps into his home is not unique in Yunzhou. However, a person like Xu Chao who can demonstrate his abilities in this area smoothly and comprehensively at the critical moment of the war and gain good results means that he is not far from his promotion.
"Okay, just have a plan." Tan Weiran said lightly. He had already made a statement to come to the front line with a large-scale attack. At least two days the enemy on the opposite side would not dare to launch further attacks. In fact, they had no chance to launch an attack. Tan Weiran calmly ordered: "Thank you for your hard work, make up for a day. We will go to pick up Chi Lei in two days."
"Your Highness!" Everyone burst into shock.
"You know I am Your Highness, but the problem is that Chi Lei is also my brother. Don't think I can't take risks." Tan Weiran smiled and said, "Do you think the son of the Taiwei of the dynasty can be abandoned when necessary? I tell you, no. Chi Lei is the number one scout in the world, and he still has to take the job for Dongping. Don't talk about Chi Lei, even if our brothers have some shortcomings, I don't mind turning the entire Gobi Desert over and killing it. My brother-in-law asked me to make a decision on my own, and Yunzhou will give you full support.
The simple road here is already under construction, with a telegraph line and an eagle station. The first batch of supplies will arrive here in five days. From now on, it depends on how much supplies you need here. Not only supplies, but also time. If it takes one year, then it will take one year. If it takes three or five years, then it will be fine. I can only stay here for two months, and in these two months, I will see the thunder and the preliminary results. I need you to prepare for a big battle as soon as possible, not to be afraid of sand killing and pain. How long are you going to soak in the grassland? Are you not going to play in the south?"
Tan Weiran doesn't seem to care about confidentiality at all, because the people present can be trusted. They can understand their meaning, because the commander has long issued documents to each battalion for everyone's opinions. Half of the mature main battle camps in Yunzhou will go to Tiecheng and then conduct a three-month training along the canal. The above is a joint exercise with the Blood Qi Army, exchanging various ideas and practical experiences in military construction, and a general military transfer for Dongping.
It is noted that the top secret document has already stated that the time for training south was mainly to familiarize yourself with the operation of the army in the wet area... So many years in advance, Dongping had already begun to make arrangements for Chunnan in these details. It is not that Dongping really wanted to use the army of the Northern Xinjiang Administration to guide Chunnan, but before the army completed the training, a large amount of reference opinions were provided by the Blood Kind Army, which was unique in the world? That was really unreliable.
After two days of preparation, Tan Weiran, in addition to leaving about 10,000 people in place, led the entire army into the Gobi. The Yunzhou army's movement from stationing to combat was too fast. It took one morning to defeat the two teams of sand thieves and advanced to Tianshuizhou that night. Then, the army divided into three groups and started a series of operations on the Gobi in a clearing manner. In the eastern part of the Gobi, at least in the place where they advanced, there was not so much water shortage. In terms of other supplies, Yunzhou did quickly give them a large amount of
Assistance, a huge fleet of airships flew back and forth to supply them with medicines and other items. Then, when the first batch of supplies arrived, the army found that Yunzhou's determination to solve the Gobi issue was indeed quite terrible. The cost of quickly transporting these materials itself was so high that the grassland tribes who were used to poverty were shocked. But Yunzhou still resolutely did it, and everything from arrows, medicines, turbulence bombs and other things were transported all the way. Only the food was purchased locally and then the appropriate amount was insufficient.
However, when Tan Weiran led the army into the Gobi, he found that Chi Lei seemed to be in danger, but it was interesting to walk. After Chi Lei finally contacted Tan Weiran, he found that Uncle Tormud's plan seemed a bit redundant now, but he still implemented part of the part that sowed the relationship between sand and thieves. As for the tomb of the King of the Grassland, although the excavation work has begun, with the support of the army and the enemy in the east being completely eliminated, Chi Lei also felt that it was unnecessary. After all, digging this tomb, you have to offend Yi Lan, a big figure who is not very strong now, but will definitely manage the grassland for a considerable period of time.
