After six hours of hot fighting, the sound of guns and artillery in the rebels' northern defense zone gradually weakened. Bahiacho's three armies had no stable footing, their marching line was too long, and the defense zone was not well constructed, so they could only be attacked.
Forced to retreat.
A corps under the personal command of Fei Pingsheng almost penetrated the northern defense line of the Boli area, completely disrupted the rebel troop supply line established here, and destroyed the defense area under construction there.
After a small victory, the People's Army achieved its planned strategic goal, forcing Bahiacho to retreat nearly 80 kilometers back to regroup.
Some people may wonder, why does Bahiacho have to wait for all the large forces to assemble? Because the military strength of the rebels and the old Mexican army, as well as military technology, etc., are not enough to support them in fighting a quick war and modernizing
War, so blindly fighting against the Min Army's raiding troops is likely to cause a large-scale chain reaction.
He added troops to support him. Once the main force was trapped outside Sri Lanka, which was full of open land, the old Mo officers and soldiers could easily make dumplings out of them if they randomly sent two troops. However, their troops were scattered and could not form a large-scale formation.
Fighting back would be very dangerous.
Based on the above reasons, after this battle, Zhao Weihu was able to delay the rebels for at least nearly a week and slow down their offensive rhythm. Bahiacho's troops needed to regroup, build new defenses, and set up an attack area.
In this way, Zhao Weihu also bought extremely valuable time for the support and positioning of the three armies of Lao Mo's army!
After achieving his goal, Zhao Weihu was very decisive and immediately commanded the troops to retreat in an orderly manner.
Zhao Weihu knew full well that this battle only caught Bahiacho off guard. After all, the number of his army was still too small.
If you continue to stand firm on the front line, you will easily be outflanked by the opponent after the rebel army arrives.
After receiving the order, the People's Min Army troops did not stop at any time and began to slowly shrink towards Sri Lanka's defense area to re-consolidate the original defense line.
…
At around one o'clock in the middle of the night, the large forces had almost completed their contraction, and the soldiers returned to Sri Lanka to garrison.
After a victorious battle, the momentum of the entire station was very strong.
In the headquarters, more than a dozen core generals wearing military coats gathered around the sand table and drank hot tea. Everyone was happy and happy, with happy faces on their faces.
"Young horseman, this battle was really enjoyable!"
"Isn't Hiyajo's face swollen now?"
"Haha, so enjoyable!"
Everyone couldn't sleep at all, and they couldn't just rest after the war. They also needed to review previous battles, sum up experience, and explore the enemy's strengths and weaknesses.
At this moment, the door was pushed open, and a cold wind rushed in.
Zhao Weihu wore the familiar shabby military coat and walked into the command post with the cold wind.
"commander!"
Everyone stood up to say hello, and Zhao Weihu also nodded to everyone.
Sun Wei was also sitting in the crowd. When he saw Zhao Weihu, he immediately stood up and said: "Commander, this time is so relieved. We made a circle in front of hundreds of thousands of troops. Not only did we repel the enemy, but we also suffered many battle losses."
It’s also acceptable. This is our loss statistics report this time, please take a look.”
Sun Wei's job is still in logistics, and he is also good at this.
Zhao Weihu reached out to take the report, held it in his hand and looked at it carefully, then nodded slowly.
The result of the battle damage was better than he imagined.
Another staff officer couldn't help but said: "Our Commander Zhao's decision is indeed correct. If we fight like this, the battle damage will be much smaller than if we stick to it!"
While everyone was chatting happily, Fei Pingsheng was the only one sitting aside, lowering his head and thinking deeply about something. He didn't say a word during the whole process, and his interest didn't seem to be very high.
After thinking for a while, Fei Pingsheng stood up, walked up to Zhao Weihu who was reading the report, and whispered: "Commander, let's have a few words alone?"
Zhao Weihu turned his head and glanced at him. Seeing Lao Fei's worried face, he nodded: "Okay, let's go."
With that said, Zhao Weihu gave instructions to the generals: "Hurry up and make a summary of your respective teams, and wait for me to come back for review."
"yes!"
The generals all paid a military salute, and Zhao Weihu and Fei Pingsheng left the command post and went to an empty lounge nearby.
After closing the door, Zhao Weihu sat down on the chair and lit a cigarette: "Tell me, what's wrong?"
Fei Pingsheng also lit a cigarette, sat next to Zhao Weihu, and said with some worry: "Commander, I think too much, and my words are a bit disappointing. Don't be angry with me."
Zhao Weihu smiled: "Stop talking nonsense and hurry up."
Fei Pingsheng then said: "That's right. From a small-scale battlefield perspective, we attacked the northern defense line in the Boli area and indeed took some advantage. However, from a macro battlefield perspective...our operation this time basically...
Nothing can change the situation. It's too early to be happy now."
Zhao Weihu took a puff of cigarette and said in a slightly encouraging tone: "Come on, tell me your opinion."
Fei Pingsheng immediately said: "Commander, I think the strategic plan of District 1 is already obvious. They just want to besiege Dragon City and prevent Dragon City from sending troops to assist us in Sri Lanka. At the same time, let the rebels and the Warhammer Armed Forces concentrate their forces to attack
We will launch a fierce attack here. As long as our side collapses, the people in Longcheng will definitely be panicked, which will lead to the internal pressure being unable to withstand and changes happening."
As he spoke, Fei Pingsheng frowned and said clearly: "However, although Bahiacho has assembled a force of 150,000 troops, the rebel forces have long been exhausted after fighting for so many years. This time
We have almost wiped out his family fortune, which is the ability of these three axes. If we can grit our teeth and hold on for a week, then there will be room for maneuver in the situation. So I feel that winning this battle is not enough, or even
It also exposed many of our shortcomings. We are short of people, very short of people, even if we add three armies, it is not enough!"
After hearing this, Zhao Weihu nodded slowly: "I have the same view as you. I have already requested support from Dragon City, but now... I have a worry..."
Fei Pingsheng was worried about this and immediately took over the conversation: "Bana City, right?"
Zhao Weihu took a puff of cigarette and agreed with Fei Pingsheng's guess.
Fei Pingsheng couldn't help but said: "If Bana City can support us and make our triangle defense very stable, Bahiacho should be the one to worry now."
Speaking of this, Lao Fei sighed: "Oh, but until now, there has been no movement in Bana City. I heard that the Wang family has also withdrawn... Commander, we still have to prepare for the worst.
If Bana City really betrays us, once pirate forces or Warhammer armed forces attack from their direction, we will have to withstand attacks from both sides, and we will definitely not be able to withstand it."
Zhao Weihu was also a little helpless: "I have never had any contact with Bana City. So, I'd better talk to Lao Li."
"Okay!" Fei Pingsheng looked solemn.
After a small victory, the situation became increasingly tense. Now the entire Huatong Hui Min Army was in a precarious situation.
…
Dragon City, Administration Hall.
Liming Sheng was sitting in the office, having stayed up all night, drinking tea and handling a lot of official business.
Li Yuan walked over, holding his cell phone, and whispered to him: "Boss, Mr. Jiang's phone number."
"Yes." Liming Sheng nodded and reached out to take the phone: "Hello, Mr. Jiang?"
"Hello, Mayor Li." Jiangzhou got straight to the point and said very succinctly: "The Wang family's troops have arrived near Longcheng. They brought a large number of family members and requested to enter the city. How do you think this matter should be handled?"
