771. November 7, seven years, sunny(1/2)
In the era of cold weapons, every battle where there is less is won, it will be recorded in history books, and fighting less is natural.
Just like the current situation, although it is a tough battle, the number of people is there, and in the eyes of most generals, this is a situation of victory.
But they are people who have not systematically learned the tactical strategies of the new era, and their thinking is still stuck in the mind of big swords and bows. Although the soldiers under their command are replacing muskets one by one, their thinking has not changed, and they still use the most basic mentality to deal with the enemy.
But the key problem is that the Blue Army is a team with advanced tactical thinking. Although Zuo Rou is the head coach, his staff are all from Chang'an Military Academy. They are all professionals who graduated after being selected by the Beihai New Army and then selected by the Military Academy.
These people only have one belief in fighting, that is, win. Moreover, those who are familiar with positional warfare, trench station, mobile warfare and other tactics are just like Baijias.
Moreover, the Blue Army had long abandoned the heavy armor and replaced it with light clothes. The mobility and practicality were greatly enhanced. The use of trenches and bunkers often overshadowed many tactics in the era of cold weapons.
"We first use earthwork to complete the first line of defense. Because it is a tough battle, the cavalry of the Red Army cannot be used. So we just need to prepare for the infantry defense position."
A staff officer came to Zuo Rou and said, "The biggest problem now is that the proportion of people is huge, so be careful when defending."
Although no one uses real swords and guns, everyone in the Blue Army is very cautious, without any slackness, and is very attentive to every war deployment. In addition, the director team has cheated to a certain extent. If the other party does not show his energy, he will never be able to meet the Blue Army.
"A ambush should be added in this place. The opposite side didn't seem to be very aware of the importance of battlefield intelligence." Zuo Rou supported the temporary command platform with both hands, looked at the map above and said: "Communication is really deadly. The only way to do everything is to slow down. When can the workshop get the Qianliyan Shunfeng ears?"
Zuo Rou's words made the staff present feel a little whimsical. It is already very good to have this communication efficiency now. What's the best? If you really have that thing, wouldn't it be invincible in the world if anyone got it?
"Forget it, let's not talk about those." Zuo Rou shook his hand: "They should have half an hour... They should have an hour now, right? They will start attacking in one hour."
An hour later, the Red Army's full-line attack began. This time, they did not rush to join but divided the troops. After communicating with the director team, they set up many small groups of surprise soldiers to catch the opponent off guard after the large army was exhausted.
This offensive model of using people to fill in the head is very common in this era. Even if you can win, the battle loss ratio will be very ugly. But in their minds, this is an exercise and it will not really kill people. So they finally chose this cramming tactic with the highest success rate but the highest death rate to attack the high ground.
"Ha, isn't this a fight for fuel?" Zuo Rou picked up the telescope and looked at the enemy's movements at the foot of the mountain: "Come up and eat the landmines."
When they stepped into the "minefield", the director team released yellow fireworks, which meant that the attacker was hit head-on and suffered heavy losses. He was forced to retreat, but as soon as he retreated to the foot of the mountain, the artillery from the Blue Army followed.
But this time they all learned their lessons and did not form a large-scale assembly. The influence of artillery was really limited. After only losing less than one-tenth of the living power, they launched an attack again.
This time they bypassed the minefield and started attacking from the other side. This time they were extremely smooth and moved very quickly. However, due to the complex terrain and the rugged mountain roads, they had to disperse the team to avoid the opponent's shelling. But not long after they were dispersed, the Blue Army's ambush began to block their personnel. Although they also counterattacked after the first round of blocking, they could not resist the Blue Army's running fast and disappeared from their sight in the blink of an eye.
They went to pursue, and as long as they left the sheltered area of trees, they would be notified to be bombarded, and then they would be ambushed when they entered the woods. After several repeated trips, the morale of the Red Army had fallen to the bottom, and they were even labeled as a disrespectful person by the director team. With the previous battle losses, their overall combat effectiveness has dropped by 30%.
"If you continue to lose like this, you will be defeated."
Several generals sat in the hidden depression. They were now covered in dust and looked even more tired than fighting a real battle. Moreover, their system has been scattered by artillery fire and ambush, and many of them have lost contact and can only move forward with their initial orders.
According to the current progress, the army will be completely defeated soon, but the big men are not convinced and sit there thinking about struggling to death while cursing.
Later, the questioning of the first questioned why the Blue Army didn't tell them that the Blue Army was so fierce, and the ones who came first blamed the later use of troops, now they are trapped in this woods together and are bombed.
"I clearly agreed to fight, but why did it get messed up as I fight?"
The sudden speech of the general of the dog was eaten suddenly made the scene silent. All the experienced generals present were all experienced generals. Logically, this should not be the case, but now they found that they were not only helpless but also brought the entire team into a vicious cycle. What is the opponent's battle loss ratio?
If they hadn't asked the director team's accompanying staff just now, they wouldn't believe it. The battle loss ratio reached an astonishing 175 to 1, which means that if they lost nearly 200 people on their side, the Blue Army would have lost one person.
The lineup of 30,000 people on the other side, according to this battle loss ratio, there is no way to fight without 6 million people.
Six million people? Fuck it and go to Maoshan to sprinkle beans and become soldiers.
how so?
This problem appeared in all of them at the same time, and the same problem also appeared in the Blues camp.
After watching this offensive and defensive battle at the position that should have been easily captured, many members of the director team couldn't help but have such a question in their hearts. Why did this become such a scene?
The Red Army's 100,000 people were eroded and divided by a position. Rounds of surprise soldiers and round by rounds of shelling, and they moved forward several rounds, and all the 100,000 people on the opposite side were dispersed.
"You ask me?" Zuo Rou looked at the director team members who came over to ask questions: "You all went to the military academy for two years."
Her words made the staff members present laugh with their mouths covered their mouths.
For these staff members, they think that such a battle situation is not very strange. Even if the Blue Army does not have so many cheating systems, the Red Army cannot be able to play with its real strength alone.
What? The key problem is that the combat systems are different. One is the thermal weapon corps and the other is the cold weapon corps holding thermal weapons. The tactics and tactics are incomparable.
There were no scattered lines in their attacks, and they would gather together. They would use shields to block cannons. There was no effective battlefield command to run with flags throughout the journey. There was no perfect coordination system and no corresponding hidden measures.
The teachers in the military academy said that they took up all the taboos at once, let alone 100,000 people, as long as there is sufficient ammunition, even a million such "elite" people will be called to them.
"Will it be difficult to fight against the New Army of the North Sea in the future?"
Zuo Rou did not answer this question, but the staff under her command answered: "It must be much taller than these people. The Beihai New Army was originally a strong army built for the sake of new tactics and battle situations, and its cooperation with troops, the application of equipment, and the use of new tactics are more convenient."
"But." The staff officer raised his head and said seriously and firmly: "Even if the Northern Navy wants to win here, it is absolutely impossible! The Blue Army is invincible in the world!"
It was this sentence that caused a thousand waves. Although the first legions to participate in the drill all ended in failure, what this staff officer said hurt the hearts of everyone in Chang'an.
Especially the North Navy, they were already cursing. Although the person who spoke was a senior from the First Class of Beihai, since he looked down on the North Navy in this way, it means that he was the enemy of the North Navy.
Which of these young generals is not talented, and which one is not arrogant. In addition, everyone is a new military education. Why is their Blue Army blowing the sky?
So the Northern Navy really volunteered to compete with the Blue Army in advance to see if the Blue Army is the legendary general.
However, those generals who came out of the drill field have been much more calm these days. Some of them have voluntarily signed up to go to the military academy for further study, while some of them have really been unable to hide their face and have secretly found the juniors in the military academy in private, sneaking in to make up for new knowledge.
Although the Blues only conducted the first round of exercises, this reputation has been achieved, and the record of winning has beaten the arrogant generals who are usually arrogant and furious.
When talking about the Blue Army before, they all thought it was just a thing to accompany the prince to study, but now if someone mentioned it, they would either leave on excuses, or they would just get angry and get angry.
Zuo Rou... No, General Zhou's reputation gradually spread to the entire Song and Liao army, and even the slogan "take Guokui Mountain and capture Zhou Huimin alive" was even heard in the North Navy.
Just as Zuo Rou was proudly rewarding the Blue Army at the Guokuishan Base Camp, a carriage slowly drove into Chang'an City.
"Your Majesty, I haven't been to Chang'an City for many years, but I didn't expect this to be the case now."
"yes."
When the curtain was lifted, the first thing that came down was Duke Ding, then Prince Fu and Zuo Fang who was supporting him.
King Fu stood on the wide and flat streets of Chang'an. Looking at the prosperity of the streets, he couldn't help but sigh: "Chang'an was not like this back then. It's a pity... it's a pity that Bianliang has not returned yet."
Duke Ding smiled and shook his head, "I'm afraid we can't see it."
At this moment, two intermediate officers on the roadside who were unemployed on holiday passed by their carriages, and the chatting voice was loud: "I want to tell me, what comes out of this general is different. A blue army killed all the top ten generals in Chang'an City, which is amazing."
"That General Zhou is also from the general? I haven't heard of it."
"Silly! That's not an ordinary general. General Zhou is not surnamed Zhou, he is the eldest lady."
"What? Female?"
"What's wrong with the woman? She is the daughter of Duke Dingguo, why? She is not qualified enough? Except for the Grand Marshal, everyone else has to call her "Miss" when she sees her."
"Enough is enough, so tough. I really admire my ability to defeat the top ten generals of Song and Liao dynasties."
Their voices gradually drifted away, leaving Duke Ding and Prince Fu standing there looking at each other.
After waiting for a while, Prince Fu asked, "What were they talking about Xiaowaner just now?"
Duke Ding frowned, and he felt that it should be Xiaowaner... but it was not easy to confirm.
So they walked all the way forward. Not to mention that there were really many people discussing this matter on the way. After asking carefully, they could be sure that it was Zuo Rou who did it.
"When will she have this ability?" Duke Ding looked at King Fu curiously: "I don't believe it."
Prince Fu laughed: "If you believe it or not, you will know."
The military headquarters in Chang'an implements military control, and idle people cannot enter, but today they are not idle people. They are the heads of the military system of the Song Dynasty. Even if King Fu no longer has the military system on the grounds that he is sick, the Duke of Ding is from the same lineage as King Fu. To put it bluntly, these two are the real military elders of the Song Dynasty except Zhao Xing.
When they received their famous posts, senior officials and generals from the military headquarters appeared at the door to greet them as soon as possible.
After the two of them entered, Prince Fu immediately asked about the things that were going viral along the way.
This made the generals in front of them blush with shame. They never felt wronged after fighting for a lifetime. In the end, they pushed each other a lot before telling the whole story.
"Actually, these generals are not bad for being weak... They are all good generals who have experienced many battles, but the Blue Army..."
King Fu disliked hearing this trick the most, and his face immediately became cold. He frowned and said, "Loss is losing, and winning is winning. There are too many things on the battlefield that you cannot predict. If you meet someone better one day, will you lose and blame the enemy for being stronger? Don't let me hear this again."
"It's... the prince..."
But even though he said that, King Fu was actually a little concerned. The general of Chang'an City was already the best in the Song Dynasty and even the entire Central Plains. He could still be shaved with his head. It was hard for him to imagine how powerful the Blue Army was.
"Prince..." Duke Ding looked at King Fu at this moment: "You see?"
The two of them are worthy of being old comrades who have fought side by side for life. With just a look, they understood what the other party wanted to express.
King Fu nodded: "Put your clothes, click the general! I went to the battlefield and took a look."
"This..." The generals in charge of the military exercise looked at me, and I looked at you, and I didn't know what to do for a moment.
"Don't worry." King Fu stood up and said, "Go, call me those dirt-faced guys first!"
Who is Prince Fu? He is the famous Grand Song army god. Even Song Beiyun's reputation has never been able to challenge him. He has never lost his life until he was 16 years old. He has defended his last dignity for the Song Dynasty.
Now that he heard this Blue Army, he was unconsciously interested, and wanted to personally see what level the Blue Army, who could beat 100,000 people in one day, was able to make teeth all over the ground.
Since it was the general of King Fu, the Northern Navy was naturally very enthusiastic. The Northern Navy, which was already a little uncomfortable with the arrogance of the Blue Army, now volunteered to follow King Fu to fight.
Morale is as high as the sun.
After all, the prince is the prince. He is not like those young people. He looks down on those who look down on this person. Even if he is catching up on the wind and shadow, he roughly understands the foundation of the Blue Army from all sides.
After the information he collected, he then went through a detailed combat meeting and carefully reviewed the previous exercises, thus obtaining the most detailed analysis data of the Blue Army so far.
"The range of heavy artillery is seven to ten miles, and no assembly can occur within this range." King Fu pointed on the map: "The assembly location is changed to this place. Then cast the trench and move forward slowly."
The Duke of Ding, next to him, quickly made a military deployment, and the two cooperated clearly to start a guide to the Blue Army's base camp.
To be continued...
