Chapter 79: Retire the Power of God
The steam train passed by on the railway, and the long sound of steam spewing out from above the black locomotive. On the carriage behind the train, a cannon showed a hideous muzzle. The train's passenger warehouse was filled with a soldier.
The steam train drove very slowly, stopping and stopping, and there were a large number of marching soldiers on both sides of the train. Ren Di was on this train. Ren Di, who was still hiking a ravine half a year ago and was walking with his feet, is now heading towards Jianghuai with a heavy unit. The steel is firm and the steam is long, and Ren Di feels that he seems to have returned to the era of the first novice mission. Unlike Miana, Ren Di is just a small soldier under the plot character, commanding the army at most two or three thousand.
Now Ren Di is heading south with five divisions of 50,000 men and 240 artillery pieces. He also carries a large number of heavy machine guns and ammunition. A few months ago, Ren Di used the mobile warfare of the country to solve his opponents, which does not mean that Ren Di can only use mushroom wars. If a heavy firepower army is placed in front of Ren Di, Ren Di is of course given priority. The ammunition supply required by such an army cannot be transported by a pack horse alone. Ren Di is now self-aware. The people who often have four or five million people in the Huaihai Battle started to organize the same logistics transportation. It is impossible to have a red zone base now. Then it must rely on railway supply to transport logistics.
After the red Republican army was dealt with in the countryside, of course, the railway was not as entangled as Sun Ze at the time. The railway artery was safe under the care of local militias. The Fuyang Industrial Base, which started construction, began to supply ammunition.
Of course, the 50,000-man army movement along the railway could not hide the Ming Dynasty's spies between the Jianghuai River and Huai River. However, the combat effectiveness of this army was tested two days later.
"The wind direction is three levels eastward. The weather is good today, and it is suitable for burning straw." Ren Di said as he looked at the cloudless breeze and the wind direction is stable. Everyone shouted in the war: "Go up, charge and kill him." Then the army's morale burst into full force. A charging position was praised for the current war of his heroic artists. Ren Di was deeply influenced by Zhao Weiguo's conscripted legion during the evolution of the battlefield bayonet training. As a soldier, he should obey and fight bravely. As the commander, he should use his brain, watch more and think more and try more carefully.
Dozens of wind-direction rods are erected five kilometers apart. At the height of ten meters of the wind-direction rod, a rotating wind cup measures the wind speed and a swaying pointer measures the wind direction. Ren Di is familiar with the climate of Jianghuai, and the wind is always popular in the east wind. It is early spring, and the wind direction is always northeasterly. Therefore, Ren Di puts his army in the northeast.
The meteorology discipline was born due to military needs. The meteorology in Rendi plane was born because a European landing was ruined by a storm, so it was required to establish a meteorological station to collect data. On the TG side, it was because the US imperial plane took off and landed in Yan'an during the Anti-Japanese War. Therefore, an observation station was needed.
Now the Red Republican Army needs to attack Hefei. The Jianghuai area is an alluvial plain. Of course, the terrain is relatively flat. In addition, the Ming Dynasty has better environmental protection and good visibility. Ren Di looked at several high-rise buildings near Hefei, which is likely to provide convenience for the other party's observation. As the saying goes, stand high and see far.
Of course, as a person from later generations, Ren Di understood that Jianghuai is no longer industrial or green in travel, there are always a few days when the weather phenomenon must be recorded as a smoke screen. Magnificently, my farmer burns straw.
In the early spring morning of this plane, the grass on the ground and the dead leaves were covered with half frost and half-exposed crystals, which refracted colorful luster under the irradiation of the rising sun. A thin layer of mist was pasted on the ground, and I wanted to lay a layer of gauze on the ground. However, at this time, the pollution demon Ren Di was launched.
On the east side of the city, Ren Di collected a large number of haystacks and poured them on fuel. The dirty haystacks were lit by Peng's ignition, and a little bit of flame jumped. Then they rose from the haystacks with a little blue, light yellow, thick white smoke. There was a lot of moisture in the haystacks, which caused the incomplete combustion of the haystacks. Rows of haystacks were ignited, and then mixed into the clear air like thick inferior pigments. Under the action of the wind, a large smoke screen was formed. The momentum spreads with the wind and surges towards the city of Hefei ten kilometers away.
Ren Di estimated that the visibility on the opposite side would basically be reduced to about two kilometers, with severe pollution as standard. It cannot kill people, but it is best to stay indoors, otherwise the eyes will be so spicy that they will hurt after a few minutes.
Hefei and the Shucheng generation of Lujiang Chaohu, the first feeling in Rendi's plane is a second-tier city. The second feeling is that the place is very poor. But it must be noted that the straight distance between Hefei and Nandu is only 188 kilometers. This 188 kilometers is not a mountain road in the southwest. The south of Hefei is a horseshoe-shaped Chaohu Lake, and it is a flat plain in the east of Hefei and Nanjing. After the expressway in later generations was repaired, one step at the accelerator will arrive in an hour and a half. As for the EMU, it can not slow down to 300 kilometers per hour on this terrain.
The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom fought a series of battles surrounding the encirclement of Tianjing and the Qing Dynasty. As for the Ming regime in Nandu, of course, it was not a fool. This is definitely something that can be seen on the strategic map. When the Southern Capital discovered that it was impossible to mobilize troops to wipe out the northern Anhui base for a short time, it decided to mobilize heavy troops to encircle and suppress them, mobilize troops from the north, and organize troops from the south to oppress them.
Of course, the plan is the actual plan. The 80,000 troops from the north need a large amount of material preparation. The defense forces in the south are insufficient. The Imperial Army dispatched the troops from foreign mercenaries active in Southeast Asia. The combat quality of these people is nothing to say, but what do you think about the local people and the military and the people? During the occupation of the Southeast Asian theater, these foreign mercenaries saw beautiful mushrooms in the village and called their friends in and then did it in the local houses.
As for the mercenaries of the Ming Dynasty, some came from retired soldiers of the Imperial Army, some came from the island countries of Northeast Asia, and some came from civilians in the slums in Shanghai who tried to get rich overnight. These people used their lives to make a fortune. The combat quality was first-class, but cold-blooded and crazy was also outrageous.
This combat habit is placed on the Southeast Asian Peninsula, which has caused great shock to enemies with poor psychological quality. However, now it is placed on the land of Jianghuai. It is completely discovered what it means to offend locals. People have fence-bearing personalities, and if they are not good for themselves but cannot resist, they may bear it. But now the Red Republican Army is here. Compared with the mercenaries ordered to defend here, these gangs do not take a needle or a thread, and help the locals help a bunch of farm work and find animals.
Lower the attitude to the children of the people and take the initiative to help the local people. This is the direction of Ren Di's military ideological guidance. As for local people, Ren Di, as a minority, of course, understands that ordinary people will hold grudges. If you scold a beggar at your door, if the beggar feels uncomfortable, you will use universal glue to block the lock hole of your door. As for the illusion of Chinese people being at peace, it means that the people have no channels to retaliate. As long as there is a channel and you suffer a loss to a certain extent, you will definitely let you know what it means to be petty. In Ren Di's memory, the petition bureau in the plane before he traveled through time was a very lively place.
The plan to block the Red Republican Army in the south in the Nandu plan was to destroy the unruly people defined by the imperial court. The essence of the imperialist army is to offend the locals. The imperialist army is what you think in the heart: "I work as a soldier in the army and work as a grandson for the superiors. Why do you have to be a grandson for the unruly people in the war zone when you go to the countryside? I have fighting spirit, but it's wrong. I have a gun and can be a dragon Aotian. Why bother with a concern for the unruly people?"
Ren Di knew his position. He was a villain, not a politician. He could not play with politicians, but he could not play with politicians, but what we think clearly about politicians. The idea of politicians is to live a peaceful life, and then their wives and children are warm-up. However, this is what politicians who are arrogant and do not live in the world and extraordinary people who are full of military achievements and money. The villain can ignore it, but the resistance of hundreds of millions of villain gathers together, which is something that politicians and soldiers cannot understand. They can only say such power as barking dogs, such as crazy poor people.
At the beginning of the entry of the Red Republican Army south of the Huaihe River, the people in this place were alert to the outsiders in Huaibei. After the land reform, they only took the benefits to their homes and kicked the landlords to follow the crowd. However, a month later, the locals began to inform the Red Republican Army of informing the place that there were evil Ming troops. This kind of rumor was secretly secret. The motivation for rumor may be that the Imperial Army soldiers who went to the countryside killed a large animal in the rumor's home, or slept with their own daughter, or just robbed a chicken.
These trivial grievances and grievances, the Imperial Army, who do big things, don't care at all. "I'll do it, I'll do it, you can't do anything to me. Moreover, our army was ordered to suppress bandits, and I'll leave after the bandits were suppressed. Even if I offend the locals, it's okay." This is the Imperial Army's idea.
However, this war was not as simple as the Imperial Army imagined. Under the secret information of the local people, more than a dozen Imperial Army soldiers who came out to patrol the countryside were annihilated. The Imperial Army officers stationed in the Jianghuai city were very angry and angry. They decided to go to the countryside to investigate the reasons. Of course, the whistleblower would not admit that he was the whistleblower.
However, the generals of the Imperial Army were very "smart" and could tell at a glance that the locals secretly ignorant of the Imperial Army. So after reaching the site of annihilation, they directly selected some young and middle-aged people in the nearby villages and used bayonets to kill them. They threatened the locals with such cruel means. This method is very skillful in the imperial mercenaries fighting overseas. Of course, it is also very effective. Using the thinking of these mercenaries, they said: "The local people are just a shameless person and are not honest if they don't kill." However, they did something wrong.
The militia organization was organized in the local area, and the organizational ability of the Workers and Peasants to organize retreats in the local area was also improved. The delivery of intelligence again was not because the locals were angry for a moment, but because of the organized monitoring of the enemy and sending messages.
Ten thousand Red Republicans who leaped across the Huai River grew to 20,000 in two months. Using mobile warfare, 6,000 enemies were eliminated in two months. Those who threatened others with death were actually very afraid of death. When patrolling out of the city became a last journey that could be directly killed, the Imperial Army hiding in the city began to fear the war.
Being captured was not the end. In order to bribe the locals and to make the locals breathe a sigh of relief, Ren Di ordered Li Youran, who was in charge of the Jianghuai mobile warfare, to be directly tried in the local area, and was shot directly. Then the list after the public trial and the body after the shooting were placed directly under the city. The power of the people's war was shown under the actions of stupid opponents.
When Ren Di led a 50,000 field troops south, he found that his army had a good mass base in the local area. Is this Li Youran capable? Or is it too stupid on the other side? Of course, Ren Di would not destroy the foundation of this victory. The political commissar held meetings every day to emphasize discipline and brainwashed to fight for the people.
Ren Di rented a large number of mule, horse and wheelbarrow transport teams in the local area. Now in the early spring of February 1704, the Red Republican Army was at the city. It completely broke the strategic plan of the southern capital to encircle north and south. Pointing at the Hefei defensive position where a large number of blue gathered in the strategic map, Ren Di said to Li Youran: "If they don't leave the city, we will take the initiative to find them."
Under the cover of the smoke screen, the Republican infantry protected the artillery forward. If it was good visibility, this advance would be discovered by the Imperial Army standing at a high place. Most of the artillery ranges are currently at six or seven kilometers. The Imperial Army has the advantage of perspective. However, now.
A large number of artillery positions of the Republican Army quickly advanced to a range of four kilometers, and some hid under the slopes and some hid in the woods to hide. In the afternoon of the same day, the Red Republican Army lined up a scattered line to launch a tentative attack on the Imperial Army, which was urgently deploying defense in Hefei. It arrived at the barbed wire trench defense position excavated by the Imperial Army and began to dig 500 meters away.
Shi Tianming, who saw the Republican Army's actions in Hefei City, seemed to be reminiscent of the memories, and immediately suggested the generals who organized the defense. The Regulations did not despise Shi Tianming, the defeated general. Since the Third Army could be wiped out, the Regulations did not despise the Red Republican Army. Soon the shelling from Hefei began.
Seeing the opponent firing #火火, Ren Di and a group of officers in the command center laughed. Ren Di looked at his gun position map and said, "The 13th group of artillery fired and counterattacked." After receiving the order, the artillery hidden in a bush or earth pit was hidden in a one-meter-high shrub or earth pit, under the command of the radio, fired on the exposed artillery positions of the Imperial Army. The Imperial Army's priority fire was about twenty artillery pieces, most of which were fired with guns. There was a lot of guns. However, the price offered by the Haisong arms dealer was a bit dark.
The Red Republican Army has no longer set up a firecracker here. Ren Di uses talent processing materials to turn it into a firecracker. The Red Republican Army has thirty cannons fire. Perhaps due to the gun steel, it cannot be compared with Hai Song or other. However, this distance is not when competing for range, but when competing for firepower.
The ammunition was lined up in a row and stuffed into the magazine to form a semicircle, and it was stuffed into the cannon chamber with a click. Then adjust the parameters and fired. Each time the fire was opened, a shell was pulled back and spit out, and then bombarded again. The barrel retreated and the cannon stretched and contracted, spitting the flames in a fixed direction. Ren Di's telegram command was to shoot half a base, the 105 howitzer had a base for forty rounds, and the 75 field cannon was sixty rounds.
Half the base is as refreshing as urinating. Each time the gun is fired, it must be repositioned. The fire speed cannot be compared with the gun withdrawal. The Imperial Army artillery exposed to the exposed direction is quickly destroyed by the overwhelming bomb attack. Under the cover of high-explosive bombs, there will never be any possibility of steel machinery surviving.
Then the artillery fire quickly extended to what Ren Di thought was an important target. The high-explosive bombs exploded together and brought out a large area of dust on the Imperial Army's positions. The barbed wire was blown away by violent air.
The violent shelling ended. Looking at the mess of bricks and tiles on the city walls, a large number of wounded soldiers baptized by artillery fire were whining. The dull charity turned his head and turned to Shi Tianming, who was also in a daze, and asked, "Is this kind of firepower that defeated you?" Shi Tianming said incoherently: "No, last time, there was no such thing last time."
