One hundred thousand troops were all under the command of Han Baihang. He sighed slowly. These were one hundred thousand lives. There were also more than 200,000 people from Sun Chuanfang's five-province coalition. This battle cost more than 300,000 lives.
During the battle, Han Baihang suddenly remembered the saying, "One general can make a thousand bones wither." It was indeed true. The ancients were honest and could not be deceived.
Commanding a force of over 100,000 troops seems to be a very glorious thing on the surface, but who knows how courageous it is to shoulder the responsibility of a general, especially when the opponent's force is more than twice his own. Han Baihang's
The burden is heavier. Moreover, this is a battle where order cannot be defeated, because once Han Baihang joins Han Baihang and loses the battle, the entire Shandong will no longer belong to the Feng faction.
The pressure of being called upon at a critical moment was heavy on Han Baihang's shoulders. This was a challenge, but it was also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and Han Baihang was not a person who would let the opportunity slip away.
Seeing that the troops of Sun Chuanfang's five-province coalition were about to enter Shandong and the Heze area, Han Baihang turned around and looked at the map behind him. He pointed to a place on the map and decided to set the battlefield for the final decisive battle here.
Heze is one of the gateways to Shandong, and it is also the only way for Sun Chuanfang's five-province coalition to enter Shandong. Han Baihang decided to set the battlefield here after careful consideration.
In fact, for Han Baihang, Qingdao is the best choice for the decisive battle, because it has long had a strong military and strong city defenses, and has enough ability to deal with the allied forces from the five provinces that came to attack. The reason why Han Baihang set the venue for the decisive battle in Heze is
It is to fight when the opponent's momentum has not been fully formed. If the opponent captures a city every time, then the opponent's prestige will be better, and the ambition of your own army will be weakened. Therefore, it is necessary to strangle the opponent in the cradle.
is the wisest choice.
But Han Baihang also knows clearly that it will be extremely difficult to do this. But Han Baihang must do this not only for victory, but also for the thousands of people in Shandong. If Sun Chuanfang is allowed to do so,
The provincial coalition forces entered Qingdao in a mighty way. Can the people of Shandong still live a stable life along the way? It is definitely not possible!
How could Sun Chuanfang's soldiers forgive the evil done by Zhang Zongchang's troops in Shanghai? And Sun Chuanfang would definitely turn a blind eye to the retaliatory behavior of his soldiers. By then, Shandong would have become the world's most famous place like Shanghai.
hell.
Han Baihang will definitely not let such a situation happen, which is why he insists on setting the battlefield for the decisive battle in Heze. If Sun Chuanfang's five-province coalition is defeated here, the rest of the people in Shandong will not have to suffer these unreasonable disasters.
If he cannot defeat Sun Chuanfang, he will not be able to save Shandong even if he retreats to the ends of the earth. Instead of abandoning the people and retreating, it is better to give it a try and fight with a last ditch effort.
Having made up his mind, Han Baihang sent his only 100,000 troops to Heze to form an indestructible line of defense. Of course, it seems unclear whether this line of defense is indestructible to Sun Chuanfang.
.
Sun Chuanfang's five-province coalition was about to approach Heze. Everyone was sweating in their hearts. It wasn't that they didn't believe the young general in front of them, but the gap between strength and numbers was clearly there. Really
It makes it difficult for people to be determined to win.
Just when everyone was nervous, Han Baihang made a shocking decision. He would personally lead a small team to give Sun Chuanfang a meeting gift. When Han Baihang said this decision calmly, the entire combat conference room was filled with excitement.
Like a pot exploding, everyone was suddenly talking, each one louder than the other, but it was obvious that almost all of them were opposed. There were even a few older generals who sneered at Han Baihang's decision.
, young people are just young people, they have no sense of the overall situation!
However, Han Baihang did not let these objections affect his decision, because he knew deeply that if he wanted to win this battle, conventional fighting methods would definitely not work.
Hope of winning.
Others' objections are not unreasonable, but they are too conservative. How can they win with such a huge gap in strength with their own mediocre playing style? Impossible! There have been many people who have done great things since ancient times, and the biggest factor in their success is
It is because they can stand firm in their ideas despite the opposition of others that they become heroes or traitors. And there are only a few people who can persist in themselves since ancient times.
Han Baihang had made up his mind, and no one could change it. They could only follow Han Baihang's orders amidst the opposition, but there was a kind of disdain on their faces, a kind of hatred that iron cannot be transformed into steel, and even a mocking expression. Han Baihang
They ignored it because they didn't understand the meaning at all.
The reason why Han Baihang secretly flew back to Shandong on Feng Yong's plane in advance was because he knew that Sun Chuanfang was wary of and blocked him. Song Chuanfang stopped him because he was afraid that he would go back. But now that he is back, he will naturally let him go.
Sun Chuanfang knew that he could not stop him. Not only could he not stop him, he also had the command of 100,000 troops in Shandong.
Han Baihang also knew that this might not be of much use to Sun Chuanfang, but as long as there was a little bit that could catch him off guard, Han Baihang was willing to do it. No matter how big the risk was, as long as Sun Chuanfang was full of doubts, he would have more
The possibility of defeating the opponent.
There are only 10,000 soldiers, and they carry light weapons and more bullets. These 10,000 soldiers were personally selected by Han Baihang from among the 100,000 troops. Han Baihang believed in his vision, because from now on,
His life was closely linked to those of these 10,000 soldiers.
Han Baihang will take them to perform an impossible mission, to sneak attack on Sun Chuanfang.
This sounds almost like a fantasy. No wonder the generals were shocked and talked about it when they heard Han Baihang's plan, because this plan was so unreliable. Han Baihang even thought about it, if he didn't come up with this plan himself.
But if someone else puts it forward, will he object as strongly as everyone else? The answer is yes.
But Han Baihang knew that he had to go in order to win this battle. (To be continued)
