Chapter 149: Running to the Wolf Plain
Chapter 149: The Wolf Yuan
The scope of the Benlang Yuan covers is really large. From the north of Dihe River to the south of the Volkin River, it is considered Benlang Yuan, but it is just a few places with other names. Such a vast space can accommodate hundreds of thousands of cavalry to conduct a mobile war. Dai Yun is not optimistic about the prospect of concentrating all his troops and the Korka coalition to carry out a decisive battle in a battle. He even sneered at the plan to carry out a decisive battle in stages proposed by some leaders. The decisive battle has never had the chance of two or three times. One failure has been a failure, which is too severe in morale, favorable to terrain, and the current coalition does not have the organization of resolute combat in a weak situation. Dai Yun's opposition to the decisive battle made the leaders and leaders of various tribes a little depressed, and the self-esteem and self-confidence of the grassland tribes have always been very strong. But the tactics formulated by Dai Yun may be more suitable for everyone's performance.
Dai Yunxie, the Korka tribe will also face serious supply problems when fighting south. She ordered the entire coalition army to retreat south and free up the entire Benlangyuan. Only these tribes live on Benlangyuan. This retreat almost made the entire Benlangyuan an uninhabited area. You must know that most of the population of each tribe are in the summer pastures around Xuelang Lake. The population left in Benlangyuan is not large, and most of them are soldiers. The old people who would have stayed in Benlangyuan in summer have long been to Xuelang Lake because the atmosphere is not right.
After such measures are taken similar to the measures to clear the world, Korka will immediately highlight his own supply problem as soon as he arrives at the Benlang Yuan. The so-called nomadic peoples do not need supplies in war is nonsense. The consumption of fodder and other food can be ignored on the grassland. Cattle and sheep can be used as food, and food will not be short of food. However, water sources are the biggest problem. Although there are a lot of water sources on the Benlang Yuan, no one or two places can withstand the consumption of more than 100,000 troops. Dai Yun has to wait for the Colkati army to disperse.
.As long as it is dispersed, it will be convenient for her to mobilize the Yunzhou tribe coalition, which is more familiar to Benlangyuan, to divide it into several cavalry corps of 20,000 to 30,000 people of different sizes, and try to launch attacks on several units of the Korka tribe coalition at the same time. Under these relatively scattered attacks, if there is an opportunity to use ambush, raids and other tactical means, you will find an opportunity to use it; if there is no such opportunity, at least the attacks must be ensured to be relatively synchronized, so that the enemies in several parts have no opportunity to support each other.
The difficulty of fighting in this way is naturally very high. First of all, how to maximize attack synchronization in this era when communication is not developed at all. Although the Colka coalition will disperse with the water source, it is still in a relatively limited space. If the attack is not synchronized or is not synchronized enough, it will be sent to people to break it. It is extremely difficult to achieve suddenness in the case of synchronous attacks. However, the Yunzhou coalition is far more familiar with the Pen Wolf Yuan than the Colka coalition, and they will naturally use various terrain and landforms on this vast plain.
Another problem is that the combat power of each unit is not balanced. In fact, this is in Dai Yun's expectation. She never thought that she could achieve good results in all directions after launching an attack, but Dai Yun knew that the strength differences between the various units of the Korka coalition were even greater than that of the Yunzhou coalition. In the Korka coalition, there were even tribes who were formerly feudals, who barely agreed to temporarily live in peace in view of the Korka tribe. Dai Yun could not guarantee that he could understand it as soon as possible.
The military strength details of the Korka tribe's sub-camps were at most just a rough estimate, so that she could arrange the appropriate combat power to attack separately. In these attacks, she was almost completely sure of the elite soldiers of the Blood Kind Army, the Iron Cloud Cavalry, the Blood Hoof Tribe, and the Solo Tribe. She fought the rest of the way, mainly for time, extending the battle time as much as possible, reducing her own losses, and restraining the enemy from the center of the battlefield as much as possible.
The most critical thing is the key attack of the Blood Qi Army, Iron Cloud Cavalry and Tribal Elite Army led by Dai Yun himself. If Dai Yun could lead the strongest combat power of more than 35,000 soldiers to defeat one of the enemy in the shortest time, and quickly turn to support another battlefield on his own, the victory of the battle would be basically laid.
In the final analysis, Dai Yun just dismantled the decisive battle where all his forces were concentrated into a favorable time for his own side and was carried out in different places. For Dai Yun, the advantages and disadvantages of such tactics are obvious. The advantage is that she can make full use of the strong elite troops in her hands to gradually change the situation where the absolute force is weaker than the other side, and can avoid the unscheduled collapse of the coalition forces due to lack of organization and may disperse the risks once they take on the enemy in a decisive battle; the disadvantage is that no matter what the outcome is on the battlefield in each place, such a battle will bring extremely considerable casualties to both sides.
For the Yunzhou coalition, the Korka tribe seemed to be a monster rushing into its homeland with fire. The hunters were going to put thick ropes on the monster and pull them in all directions. If they could work together, be able to persevere to the end, and wait until the powerful hero cut off the monster's head. The monster's huge body would inevitably fall to the ground. But if they could not persevere to the end, if one or several of the hunters did not do their best and did not use all their strength to tighten the rope on the monster's body and straighten it. The one who was overturned was the hunter. No matter what the price the hunter paid to conquer the monster, a layer of skin was scraped off by the rope, and blood was the slightest and inevitable effort.
All tribes understood Dai Yun's arrangements and implemented the arrangements one after another. In order to achieve the greatest suddenness of the battle, and to avoid some people in some tribes with weak minds or those who had already ulterior motives in destroying the plan, all tribal troops were not allowed to leave without authorization. In order to make this extremely complex surveillance and control plan simple, Dai Yun simply ordered all tribal troops to retreat across the Dihe River, leaving only a small number of Blood Qi Army and Tie Yunqi Scouts on the north bank of Dihe River.
Even though Dai Yun, Golan and others repeatedly asked Ye Tao to take the guard car back to the Ningyuan City line, Ye Tao still stayed a little bit south of the Dihe River, and began to use his talent in engineering design to urgently repair the original ferry on the Dihe River. The water flow of the Dihe River is gentle and the water depth is very limited. During the summer flood season, there are several places where cavalry can wader directly. The repair of the ferry is not so much for the convenience of combat use, but more to consider further strengthening the traffic connection between Dongping, Yunzhou and Benlangyuan in the future.
