Chapter 1434 Total Suppression

Before Liu Shang came to Shandong, he had heard about the glorious achievements of the special operations battalion many times, and had also quietly checked the relevant reports and information in the Sanya library. In his opinion, the Haihan ace unit had

The soldiers must be all brave and brave, and they are all as powerful as heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals. However, after going to Shandong and having personal contact, I found that there is no obvious difference between these soldiers and the Haihan army I saw on Hainan Island before. No one has three heads and six arms.

, I have never seen a fierce general who can kill seven in and seven out with an iron gun on horseback. If there is any difference, it is probably that the weapons and equipment are better than those of ordinary troops.

It wasn't until he was sent to Lushun, where he ate and lived with the special operations battalion, that he slowly realized the power of this unit. Needless to say, it has strict military discipline and hard training. The most important thing is this

The desire to fight and the attitude towards war among the troops seemed to be quite different from the soldiers Liu Shang had come into contact with in the past.

Fighting overseas all year round has made these soldiers who are accustomed to life and death show a clear sense of indifference to battle and death. The meaning of their existence is to constantly defeat their opponents and conquer new areas to open up territory for the country. But this kind of

Indifference does not mean not caring, but is based on strong self-confidence. They are convinced that the army they are in is invincible. In their view, any opponent is just a stumbling block that overestimates their capabilities. Even if the enemy on the battlefield is...

The Ming Dynasty was quite troubled by the Houjin Iron Cavalry. Even though the opponent had a home field advantage and a clear advantage in military strength, it did not put more pressure on this army. They just trained, mobilized, and went out step by step to do a good job on the battlefield.

Be prepared to kill your opponent.

When the Golden Cavalry launched a charge earlier, Liu Shang was also watching the battle in the camp. When he saw the enemy cavalry getting closer and closer and felt the vibrations from the ground under his feet, to be honest, the cold sweat on his body was worse than when he was inspected around the island.

Zhang Qianzhi was targeted several times more often. He knew that as long as the Houjin cavalry broke through the unreliable roadblocks outside the camp, he would not even have a chance to escape, but looking at the calm and composed seamen around him

Han soldiers, he can only place his hopes on these confident people.

As the explosions continued to sound, Liu Shangcai finally understood why these Haihan soldiers could remain so calm. It turned out that the seemingly fierce Houjin cavalry could not even touch the edge of the camp. After the infantrymen stepped forward to replenish their guns,

After that, the Golden Cavalry actually retreated faster than when they arrived, evacuating the battlefield in a very short period of time. Their determination also amazed Liu Shang.

This battle did not involve the bloody fight Liu Shang imagined. The fighting distance between the two sides was always controlled at more than ten feet. The Jin army had no chance to drag the battle into a close combat stage and was defeated. On the other hand, the Jin army was defeated.

At the special operations camp, Liu Shang dared to say that many people might not have even broken a sweat. Even if the battle was over, they still had a beautiful victory over their opponents. However, everyone's face was calm, and it seemed that this complete victory was affecting them.

It seems to be a natural situation, and it is not worth showing any special excitement about it. As for Liu Shang's mentality of walking away from the gate of hell, they don't have the slightest bit of mentality.

Seeing such a scene, Liu Shang could only say something awesome secretly. This powerful mentality of the special operations battalion has been rooted in the hearts of every soldier, and it is almost impossible to be affected by the outside world. This kind of confidence and calmness, others also

It is difficult to imitate. When Hou Jin encountered such an opponent, he really hit the iron plate. With Haihan's step-by-step tactics, even if Hou Jin had the advantage of mobility due to the large number of cavalry under his command, it would be difficult for him to win the battle.

play a large enough role in reversing their disadvantages in tactics and weapons.

Outside the camp, a large number of corpses of horses and cavalry were piled up in the mud, but the camp just a stone's throw away was clearly in order. If Liu Shang had not personally experienced the battle just now, it would be difficult to imagine that the Haihan army had just defeated Hou Jin.

A charge by the cavalry. This contrast also made Liu Shang feel very strange. He felt that this army was not as passionate as he imagined, but it had a unique pride and calmness, just like what he had seen in a mining area on Hainan Island.

Just like that kind of steam gravel machine, no matter how hard the stone is pushed in, it will be crushed mercilessly.

Liu Shang resisted the dizzying smell of blood and walked around the battlefield outside the drawn line, roughly calculating the results of the battle. There were more than 160 horses killed or injured on the scene. According to

According to Chen Yixin's theory, the number of Houjin cavalry killed and injured should still be above this number. Liu Shang wrote down two hundred and showed it to Chen Yixin. As expected, Chen Yixin didn't care much about such trivial matters. He just took a quick look and accepted it.

He signed his name at the bottom of the page.

"Director Liu has never been on the battlefield before, right?" Chen Yixin handed the pen back to Liu Shang and asked by the way.

Liu Shang responded respectfully: "Before I came to Haihan, I worked as a storyteller on the streets. Soon after I came to Haihan, I was recruited into the Yamen to work. I only saw the navy's battle against the Spanish fleet in Sanya from a distance. It's true."

I have never experienced the battlefield at such a close distance."

"Tell me, how do you feel about our army's performance? Or you may have other ideas." Chen Yixin was obviously in a good mood at this time and was interested in chatting with Liu Shang more.

Liu Shang thought for a while and said: "The gold thieves are definitely not the opponent of our army, but I feel that the generals do not seem to have the intention to drive away the gold thieves. I forgive my bold words. This is not so much a fight with the gold thieves.

It is said that it is more appropriate to find a suitable person to train with."

"You have quite a unique vision!" Chen Yixin was a little surprised after hearing Liu Shang's words. This civilian cadre who was on the battlefield for the first time could actually understand some of the hidden intentions of the special operations battalion in such a short period of time.

This kind of keen observation is very rare.

Liu Shang didn't dare to say anything. He just said that this was his own wild guess and he couldn't be accurate. After observing the words and expressions, he naturally knew that what he said was probably right, but he did not dare to show off his knowledge in front of a high-ranking official like Chen Yixin. These sea people

All high-ranking officials in the Han Dynasty are smart people. He will not be arrogant enough to think that his IQ is better than that of the other party. If someone accidentally reveals his identity, it will be a big trouble.

Chen Yixin re-examined this official who was sent to the north by the Youth League. He realized that the person whom Yu Xiaobao could write a personal letter to recommend was indeed not an ordinary person. Although this person was just a street storyteller, his

His observation skills are quite outstanding, so it's no wonder that he was promoted in a short period of time. This ability is difficult to see just from his resume.

Chen Yixin also remembered that Liu Shang had served in Majiazhuang before. Although he did not last long, he seemed to be quite reliable in his work and could handle the tasks he was responsible for in an orderly manner. Even now he is in the army and goes out with the troops.

, this person seemed to be able to adapt to the battlefield environment very quickly, and did not show the timidity, panic, nervousness and other emotions that a civilian employee might have. Instead, he was able to calm down and observe the atmosphere and deployment inside the special operations battalion. This

The mind can be said to be very powerful.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but subconsciously asked: "Liu Shang, do you have the intention to join the army?"

Liu Shang was startled by this sudden question. He couldn't figure out for a moment whether Chen Yixin's intention in asking this question was to test himself or for some other reason. He could only respond carefully: "I don't even have a kitchen knife in my humble job."

No matter how hard I try, I am still cowardly. If I join the army, I'm afraid I won't be able to kill the enemy, but I'll let the enemy kill me first!"

It is true that he has never touched a kitchen knife, but Liu Shang is definitely lying about being timid. If he was timid, he would have found a chance to sneak back to the Ming Dynasty, and he would definitely not stay in Haihan with Liu Shang's identity

Start a new life again. Liu Shang is indeed very interested in the Haihan military, but if he is asked to join the army and become a member of the Haihan army, he may not be happy.

In addition to the obvious reason of not wanting to confront the army of his motherland on the battlefield, Liu Shang also believed that he was not suitable to be a soldier. He was already too old to bear the fatigue of military training, and he did not have the ability to kill through

He wanted to use other means to prove his ability. When he was in Sanya, he wanted to kill his colleagues who threatened his safety. He had been struggling for a long time, but he still couldn't make up his mind. Since then, he knew that the best he could do was

It is very difficult to be a decisive undercover spy if you follow the path of a technocrat. Therefore, Liu Shang had no other idea except to politely decline Chen Yixin's proposal.

Chen Yixin shook his head and said: "You misunderstood me. I am not suggesting that you start as a new soldier and rely on killing enemies on the battlefield to accumulate military merit and get promoted. That will not mean much for your future development, and you will not be able to use it.

What you are good at. If you are willing to join the army, there are actually many positions suitable for you in the army. For example, Qin Wei, who was transferred to Liaodong with you this time, was also a scholar before. After joining the army, he became a civilian officer directly. Now

No, you are doing quite well. Based on your personal resume, you should be able to be a propaganda officer or political cadre in the military. As long as you enter the military school and train for a few months to learn relevant knowledge, you will be assigned to a military rank of at least

As a second lieutenant, you might as well consider it."

Only then did Liu Shang understand what the other party meant. Ganqing wanted to recruit him from the youth league into the army, and the work he did was still the same as before. Liu Shang knew that the second lieutenant in the army was at least a platoon leader or deputy company commander, and that was at least

He is also capable of commanding more than a hundred people. In the Ming army, he is probably a hundred commanders. This starting point is not very high, but it is by no means low. Haihan’s active and retired soldiers enjoy many special benefits. Liu Shang

He is also aware of this, and he also knows the benefits of having a military position. Regarding Chen Yixin's suggestion, it would be a lie to say that he is not moved at all.

But Liu Shang still dare not easily agree to this invitation. He is a person who is used to making decisions before taking action. If he does not weigh the pros and cons and understand the pros and cons, he will not easily take the initiative to change his environment. Although joining the army has many benefits, and

It seems that there is still the endorsement of a big shot like Chen Yixin, but it may not necessarily be a smoother or more comfortable path than the one we are on now.

Chen Yixin named himself to join the army. After joining the army, he would definitely be assigned to the special operations battalion. Although this unit is Haihan's ace army, Liu Shang knew that the special operations battalion was fighting on the front lines overseas all year round. It can be said that it was not very comfortable.

Life is easy. Only those professional soldiers who regard fighting as an integral part of their lives can adapt to the life of long-term military expeditions. However, Liu Shang thought that he was not so hard-working, especially after seeing the prosperity and wealth of Sanya.

She has already made plans to live a life without worries about food and clothing on Hainan Island.

"Thank you, Chief, for your suggestion, but please let Rong Beizhi consider this matter." After a battle between heaven and man in Liu Shang's mind, he finally declined Chen Yixin's suggestion.

Chen Yixin didn't have too many regrets. He just thought that Liu Shang was a talented person. If he could recruit him to serve under him, he would be a good candidate. But since there was no way to poach this corner from the youth league, it wouldn't be sweet to force him.

, and he would not hold this person back.

After receiving the news from Qian Tiandun, Wang Tom of the East Route Army ordered the entire army to be on alert, but after waiting for a whole day, there was no trace of the Jin Army. After the Jin Army tried to attack the special operations camp and failed, they did not return all the way.

He continued to hit the wall in the east, but chose to retreat north. Erhe finally realized that it was basically impossible for him to complete the comeback with the few remaining troops, and he might have to pay for it if he was not careful.

Since he couldn't defeat his opponent in the field, he had no choice but to withdraw his troops and return to camp to defend the Jinzhou Fortress defense line.

Both the West Route Army and the Middle Route Army achieved good results, but Wang Tom's East Route Army had no gains. Apart from scolding the Jin Army for being too cowardly, he had no other better way to vent his anger for the time being. And since

The opponent had already retreated, and it would probably be ineffective to continue to wait and see. After communicating their opinions through the radio, the commanders of the three-way army decided to break camp and continue to advance north.

Since the current position of the Third Route Army continues to the north, the Jinzhou Isthmus has further narrowed, and the distance between the East, West and Central Third Route Army has also become smaller and smaller. If the enemy cavalry troops still dare to move out, they will really suffer.

Comprehensive suppression and attacks came from all directions.

But at this time, Erhe, who returned to the Jinzhou Fortress, was kneeling in front of Azig and Yanggu, confessing his crime of poor command. Of course, Erhe could only try his best to shift the responsibility for the defeat to the evil villain.

Weather, poor logistics, and extremely cunning enemies. In his words, the Haihan Army was a group of bastards who avoided fighting and only used underhanded methods. His defeat was a crime not caused by war, but he was just not lucky.

Just the side.
