In fact, the newly established General Staff Headquarters had already formulated a plan for how to capture Tianjing Pass, and this plan was revised several times before the final decision was made.
When the General Staff first made the plan, they estimated the strength of the enemy and ourselves based on the usual situation. According to this deduction, the General Staff believed that a dangerous pass such as Tianjing Pass, which could only be blocked by one man, would be blocked by ten thousand men. If the opponent invested 10,000 yuan,
If we have 50,000 troops to attack in turn, we can win this level within a month. If our attacking troops are Yan Yunwei, we can reduce it to about 30,000 troops to achieve the same effect. It is estimated that the opponent
For 10,000 people, this is not nonsense, but the situation at Tianjingguan can only allow the other party to invest 10,000 people. No matter how many more people there are, there is no place to stay or place, not to mention that the conditions such as food storage do not allow it.
Then, the General Staff planned in detail how to deploy troops for the 30,000 or 50,000 troops, how to allocate food and grass, how to allocate ordnance, how to boost morale, how... In short, all aspects were planned in detail, and the General Staff believed that this was a very important task.
A quality pre-war action outline
However, when this conclusion was placed in front of Marshal Yun, who was also the Chief of the General Staff, Yun Zheng only glanced at it for a few moments before he dismissed it without hesitation and asked the General Staff to redo it.
At that time, the General Staff did not understand why Yun Zheng rejected their hard-working plan so rashly. When they asked carefully in front of Yun Zheng, Yun Zheng said angrily: "This commander has brought 80,000 kilograms to your army.
Gunpowder, is this for you to set off fireworks? There are also nearly a hundred new-style "Tiannu scattered firecrackers". Do you think I am bringing them to hold a fireworks party?" Yunzheng has won such a big victory in the Liao Kingdom,
Now his prestige in the army has reached its peak. If he were not just a young marshal, and there is a marshal above his head, I am afraid that his popularity is no longer even lower than that of Yun Lan. At this time, his face was stern, and the general staff
The general immediately fell silent and went back to plan again.
"How come these idiots are so clueless? Thanks to me, I go to the Military Research Institute every day to work on these cannons, and the batch of gunpowder. I almost cried when I forced Akimiya Kiyoko to ask for sulfur."
, and forced tens of thousands of Japanese to get sulfur for me, otherwise how could it be so fast? You bunch of idiots, you are actually letting me use my Goddess Firecrackers and the big Picric Sour Explosives. I have to use human lives.
Go and build this Tianjing Pass. Damn it. After the Tianjing Pass, there is Mengjin Ferry. After Mengjin Ferry, there is the imperial court - well, the pseudo-imperial court has more than 100,000 troops. I am going to use my life to fill them all? What about the 150,000 I have?
The army will have to lose at least half of it if it takes Luoyang! Grandma's son is not yours, don't you feel bad for me?" Yun Zheng cursed with self-hate.
As soon as he arrived at the military camp, his speech was completely different from usual. As the prince of the country, and also a world-famous scholar, he should pay attention to "civilization", but when he arrived at the military camp, civilization would not work in this place, and he should be scolded.
You have to curse at all times, otherwise your subordinates and soldiers will feel that they are alienated from you. The dignity of a coach is earned through fighting. Soldiers are the most simple-minded people in this regard. As long as you can lead them to win the battle, even if you spend all day
It doesn't matter what the fuck he talks about
The plan was put on Yun Zheng's desk the next day, and he finally used the Tiannv Scattering Cannon. Unfortunately, Yun Zheng was furious again, and finally couldn't help but cursed: "Your uncle, when did I teach you to use cannons like this?"
Already? There are ninety-nine and eighty-one cannons in Mahler Gobi. What kind of bullshit is there to say, "Destroying the Zhoutian Xingluo Formation in All Directions" - you are a Taoist priest who comes to perform rituals! Is this how you use the cannons?
All these cannons, if you disperse them like this, their power will be fucking gone, and they will be wiped out in all directions, including your uncle!"
The new batch of General Staff graduates from Yingying Academy are also miserable. When it comes to playing with cannons, they have never learned anything in the academy. As soon as they graduated with excellent grades, they were assigned to "close learning" at the General Staff Headquarters.
"Who knew that the young marshal's two dissatisfaction was all because of this cannon, but they really don't know how to do this. They were really annoyed by Yun Zheng's scolding, and a young general couldn't help but said: "This formation is not
Isn’t it very impressive? If we set it up like this, we will take care of everything..."
Yun Zheng almost got angry at this kid. The people next to him were afraid that Yun Zheng would kill this little brat who didn't know the rules of the army in a rage, so they quickly begged for his mercy.
Yun Zheng breathed a sigh of relief before saying: "Forget it, I've finally given in to you idiots. You actually want to trouble me, the chief of general staff, to plan such a trivial matter... Come on, come on, come here, I'll teach you*
*——Ah no, I will teach you how to use a cannon," Yunzheng said angrily.
Although the generals didn't understand the difference between teaching them guns and teaching them how to use cannons, they still hurriedly gathered around
Yunzheng took the sand table model and said: "Look, this is Tianjing Pass. The number of people who can form a frontal formation below is only about 5,000. If you want to attack by force, you can only attack in waves of 5,000 people."
Continuous attacks However, Tianjing Pass is a famous dangerous place in Hanoi. The pass is very well reinforced and there are sufficient defensive materials inside. Under such circumstances, a strong attack will definitely suffer heavy losses, so we cannot follow the old method and just
Can use new methods”
"What's the new method? It's the artillery. The Tiannv Scattering Cannon we brought this time is very powerful. There are sharp tiles in the shells. Once they explode, the tiles will fly. It goes without saying that the lethality is great. But this cannon
It’s not just this kind of artillery shell that can be used, it can also use a very explosive artillery shell... Therefore, the artillery must not be broken down into pieces and used when there is nothing. If you want to use it, you must concentrate your efforts and use it together.
That power is indestructible," Yun Zheng explained patiently.
A general understood: "Then we can divide it into two artillery arrays on the left and right, with forty-nine Tiannv scattered fireworks cannons on each side, and shoot them at the Tianjing Gate to blow up this natural barrier directly! This is the left and right chain of two Yi Da.
There are forty-nine small Zhoutian star arrays on each side, and together they form the 'Double Small Zhoutian Liangyi serial artillery array'..."
"Can you not use such a magical name??" Yunzheng said angrily.
In ancient China, in addition to paying attention to famous names, they also pay attention to auspiciousness, time, the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams. In short, the more popular the name, the better. This is the first time I have seen a coach who is not particular about Yun Zheng.
I can’t help but feel a little **
Yun Zheng waved his hand: "That's it, Yun Bing, for tomorrow's attack, you will supervise the left artillery formation Yun Song, you will supervise the right artillery formation Qin Chong, you will lead the troops, and as soon as the door is closed and the artillery formation breaks it, we will rush in immediately
Inside the pass!”
The three generals who were named by Yun Zheng immediately stood out of the queue with their heads held high, hands clasped in fists, and loudly said: "Yes, Marshal!"
Yun Zheng nodded and glanced at Qin Chong. This was one of his killers. It seemed that it was the most appropriate task to entrust him with such a task of charging into battle.
"Go forward," Yunzheng called him.
"Young Marshal, the general is here," Qin Chong quickly bowed and responded. His temper in the army was very heroic and arrogant, but he was very honest in front of Yun Zheng because he really loved Yun Zheng.
I am sincerely convinced. No matter it is personal martial arts, military leadership or even literary talent, there is nothing to say. He is absolutely excellent in literary, military and military skills, and he takes good care of his subordinates. Such a young commander cannot be convinced, and who can be dissatisfied?
Who is he in a hurry with?
Yun Zheng walked out of the commander's platform, walked to him, looked him up, stared into his eyes, and said solemnly: "Tomorrow's battle will be the first battle of our northern Xinjiang army going south to suppress Jingnan. Can we show off our majesty and evil spirit?
It’s up to you”
"Yes, Young Marshal, I will save you the trouble!" Qin Chong unconsciously puffed up his chest again, leaving this battle to himself. This is because the Young Marshal values him. No matter how difficult the fight is, he must fight it well.
With the majesty of the Northern Xinjiang Army and the evil spirit of Ying Yangwei, how could he have the dignity to come back to see the young commander?
Yunzheng nodded slightly and warned: "You have to know that although there will be an artillery array to break the pass tomorrow, your situation is still very dangerous, because the Tianjing Pass is only so wide in total, and the inside is only so big. There are ten thousand of the opponent's
The army is already relatively full inside. If you go in again, you will find that it is full of their people. At this time, whether you can determine the overall situation depends on whether your knife is sharp enough."
Qin Chong stood up proudly and said loudly: "Those Central Army troops from the dynasty...the puppet dynasty are like women, not to mention ten thousand, even if there are a hundred thousand in them, the third guard of Ying Yang under the command of the end can kill them seven into seven."
Come out without taking a breath! Young Marshal, just be more at ease. I, Lao Qin, have done the most to lead the march south!"
When he said this, the generals of Zhendingwei and Taiyuanwei were a little envious, but they had no choice. They had seen the strength of Yingyangwei last time when they fought against the Liao Kingdom. It was really abnormal, although the cost was also low.
It's very abnormal... Now that the young marshal is leading the troops, he has to gain military merit for his direct lineage in the first battle. No one has anything to say, so the generals of Yanyunwei have more natural expressions. This time they occupy such a large territory in Liao Kingdom.
, and by the way, he got a large number of war horses for no reason, more than 200,000 in total. After a selection, the entire Yanyun Guard became cavalry. Before going south this time, the marshal originally intended to send the young marshal's personal army to the Ying Yang Guard.
There are also horses, but I don’t know why. The young marshal only wanted a small part of the horses in exchange for Yingyangwei’s Tanma. He didn’t want the other horses. It’s really strange that Yingyangwei doesn’t need warhorses.
However, it is good that the cavalry in the brigade will only consist of Yan Yunwei. In this way, once encountering a field battle or chasing the enemy, Yan Yunwei will always show his power, so there is no need to envy others.
