Chapter 5 The Fierce Battle Is Coming
Fierce battle is coming
Looking at the booklet waving in Guo Junqing's hand, Fang Chuming and several impatient officers immediately surrounded him, but their faces immediately showed disappointment. It turned out that the booklet was written in Rouran's text. These officers might have a few words of Rouran, but when they encountered Rouran's text, they all had seven orifices and six orifices - they didn't know anything.
Liu Jingxiao took the booklet, looked at it a few times, her eyes showed joy, and she praised: "Good thing!"
Guo Junqing explained to the officers who were puzzled: "It is the diary of the second company of the Second Regiment of the Second Division of the Rouran National Guardians!"
As he looked, Liu Jingxiao's expression suddenly changed. He thought: "The regiment headquarters is stationed in Tagtanwula, and each company is stationed nearby to receive subsequent supplies. This company is responsible for reconnaissance. Junqing, where is this place?"
The two of them had a different mind, and Guo Junqing had already pointed at the map: "Here!"
Liu Jingxiao looked at Guo Junqing's fiery look, determined the location and said, "It's about one hundred and twenty miles away."
Guo Junqing immediately said: "It is located in the lower reaches of the Xilin River, with a flat terrain. You can get there in one day when you march in a hurry."
"A regiment of enemy troops!" Liu Jingxiao showed a solemn expression on her face. She had fought with the Rouran rebels many times in the past few months, and she could be said to know the weight of the Rouran rebels.
my country uses divisions as a strategic unit. Although the division is divided into light and heavy, it is used, from the division-level organization system of the first division and the second regiment, the division-level organization system of the first division and the third regiment, to the division-level organization of the fourth regiment or the third regiment, and to the abnormal organization of another supplementary regiment of the 9th regiment of the Hubei Army's Second Division, the 2nd regiment of the Hubei Army, but the most common organization is still the division-level organization of the two brigades and four regiments.
The Rouran military system is different from the Chinese military system. Although the division is used as a strategic unit, the first division of the Rouran rebel army is organized by three small regiments, each regiment has no battalion, but directly under the control of the cavalry company and the third infantry company. The entire division is only the 12th infantry and cavalry company plus the direct cavalry, artillery, and baggage company, with a total of fifteen companies, which is only equivalent to the strength of one strengthening regiment in our country.
The Rouran Rebels currently have more than 20 divisions, of which Babuzabu has six divisions. Liu Jingxiao estimated that he had a cavalry company, two infantry companies, and an elite grenadier platoon, and his strength was almost the same as the opponent.
However, although the opponent claimed to be the Rouran rebel, his actual cavalry was less than one-third. Since the Battle of Mobei, the Rourans discovered that they could not defeat the infantry defense of the Republicans on the front. The Republicans, equipped with new muskets and artillery, often massacred the cavalry that was impacting the front, and were forced to induce the Rourans to strengthen the construction of infantry.
Cavalry is used more for reconnaissance and harassment, and it is rare to engage in large-scale combat with infantry. It is rare to charge head-only inflicts, and often dismount when encountering infantry. However, even so, the cavalry of the four companies can deal with it by their own cavalry battalion that sells dog meat with sheep.
Thinking of this, Liu Jingxiao pointed to the map and said to the officers: "The diary in this formation says that Tagtanwula has the strength of an enemy regiment and a lot of supplies. I want to move it! What do you think?"
Fang Chuming did not change his sloppy personality and first said: "A group doesn't seem to have much chance of winning! And is it reliable in this diary? Is it still an unknown number? Let's take a look?"
Wu Canglei opposed his opinion: "How can you not eat such a piece of fat? Wealth is a dangerous thing to ask for, so what is the purpose of everyone coming out of seclusion and drinking the northwest wind?"
Chen Ce said: "Fight! But it really needs to be done well!"
This is a steady view, and the remaining company commander Hu Bo also said this: "We have wounded people and supplies in our camp, so it is impossible to follow us. If someone takes the old nest, it will be unpleasant!"
Guo Junqing said: "I think the key is good. My terrain is familiar. If you detour Taguetanwula from the right, look, just walk from here. This road is small and it is not easy to find out by the enemy."
Duan Zhijie, deputy company commander of the first company, said: "I'll guard the camp! Jingxiao, please leave me a platoon, plus the minor wounded and the staff, there are also 70 or 80 people. With the fortifications, it is estimated that the attacks of two or three companies can withstand it. If it comes, Chen Ce's cavalry will come to pick me up immediately. What do you think?"
Hearing everyone say ok in unison, Liu Jingxiao slapped the table and said, "Okay! This deal is finalized!"
The next day, the entire camp stepped forward to Tagtanwula early in the morning.
Xilingol, Rouran means "river on the plateau". The terrain here is flat, with green grass and endless scenery of the grassland. It is hard to tell which is the sky and where is the earth. Just as the ancient poem "The sky is vast, the wilderness is vast, and the wind blows the grassland to see cattle and sheep", there are sometimes curved rivers extending in the grassland, adding a bit of beautiful scenery to the grassland.
However, the officers and soldiers had been in the grassland for several months and were tired of seeing such scenery. Under the urging of the officers, they accelerated their pace again. The cavalry company was used as scouts. The first company was in front, the battalion headquarters was behind, and the second company was postponed. They marched safely in one day. They went around a big circle and arrived about ten kilometers away from Tagtan Ula. Liu Jingxiao ordered to stop advancing and rest on the spot, but fire was strictly prohibited to attract the attention of the enemy.
Liu Jingxiao had just wiped out the dry food in his mouth, and happened to meet Chen Ce and several other cadres who had gone to the reconnaissance.
When Chen Ce saw Liu Jingxiao's face, he said happily: "Half done!"
Liu Jingxiao grabbed his hand, handed the kettle, and then asked, "Ace, how about it? Tell me carefully?"
Chen Ce took the kettle and poured it into his mouth. Fang Chuming rushed to say, "That's right, there is indeed a regiment there, about four or five hundred people, with poor vigilance, and even the sentries were only put a few of them out of the way."
After hearing Fang Chuming's words, Chen Ce nodded in agreement. Liu Jingxiao turned his gaze to the most valued deputy.
Guo Junqing did not disappoint Liu Jingxiao, and pointed to the map and introduced the deployment of the Rouran Army in detail.
The battalion headquarters is located in the middle of Tagtanwula. A camp was built in each of the outer edges, southeast, west and northeast, with a company of troops stationed. The cavalry company is stationed in the north, and the nearby terrain is very flat. However, there is a small hill near the southern camp, which can lurk the forces of this lack of cavalry company or most of the infantry company.
Since the situation was clear, several cadres had planned the battle plan the next morning. Liu Jingxiao led the main force to attack the Rouran Camp in the south. The cavalry company led by Guo Junqing and lurked on the small hillside of the southern camp as a reserve team.
After making a plan, several cadres went back early to rest and had to be punished tomorrow morning, but Liu Jingxiao kept Guo Junqing.
Guo Junqing knew that Liu Jingxiao had something to say to him, but Liu Jingxiao looked restless and never spoke. Finally, in the dull atmosphere, Liu Jingxiao finally spoke: "Tomorrow will probably be a fierce battle!"
"I know, but this battle must be fought." Liu Jingxiao understood what Guo Junqing meant. Since this small army entered Guolin Gol, the largest enemy force had encountered, that is, the company-level troops, so they could easily win. However, an army must have strong combat power and must be trained through hard battles. In the battle tomorrow, the forces of both sides were equal, and the Rouran army had always been fierce, which must be a hard battle, but Liu Jingxiao was not talking about this.
"I want to ask my senior sister for something!" When I heard the word "Senior Sister", Guo Junqing felt a sense of confusion on her scalp. Although in terms of qualifications, Guo Junqing was the senior sister of Liu Jingxiao's two-term class, Guo Junqing is different from these juniors. She originally had a stable job in the Eighth Division of the Hubei Army, and her purpose of leaving the customs was just for someone's instructions.
"What's up?"
"Senior sister, tomorrow's battle..."
Before Liu Jingxiao was waiting for Liu Junqing, Guo Junqing's eyes were like frost blades, staring at Liu Jingxiao, pointing out incisively: "You want the battle situation to be irreversible, let my cavalry retreat immediately."
Liu Jingxiao did not dare to look at Guo Junqing's eyes, lowered her head and said, "Senior sister, that's right, I don't want to leave all of our graduates in Guo Linguole. The infantry dare not say that at least the cavalry company can break through."
"Then can you let them abandon the honor of military personnel?"
Liu Jingxiao begged with a low cry: "They came out of seclusion because of me! I don't want the teacher's efforts to throw them all into Guolin Gol." In his mind, if these cadres of the Zhuque Military Academy had not been in the Hubei Army for some accident, they would have been in the Hubei Army long ago, and they would not have to go out of seclusion and fight hard in this bitter and cold place with themselves.
As he spoke, Liu Jingxiao raised his voice: "Senior sister, no matter what, the cavalry company is completely in charge!"
Guo Junqing looked calm and looked unstoppable, but she had a firm belief in her heart.
