Chapter 857: Defense Gap

The exercise is becoming more and more intense and attractive, not to mention that Shen Zhenchuan and Bai Yan are closely related to the commanders and fighters of both sides, so it is not surprising that Shen Zhenchuan and Bai Yan eat and live in the Iron and Blood Club.

Of course, because the two sides are in different positions, the mood of watching the exercise is also different, at this time Shen Zhenchuan is more anxious, his son Shen Jiabing has repeatedly made strange moves in this exercise, and he is also secretly happy in his heart, but the current situation is that although the fifth unit of his son's side used the mechanized infantry battalion to drag the pursuit of the other side, it successfully combined the soldiers and horses of the right and left flanks, forming a situation of concentrating superior forces to attack.

However, the 6th Army, because of the use of air transportation, also strengthened the defense on the left flank.

In this way, the left flank is a strong attack against a strong defense, and there is no advantage at all for the fifth army.

There is no advantage in offense, and no advantage in defense, the artillery battalion and the mechanized infantry battalion are lost, the cards in their hands are getting smaller and smaller, and the situation is quite unfavorable.

Shen Zhenchuan was naturally in a bad mood! Shen Zhenchuan's mood was bad, but Bai Yan's mood was not bad at all, it was very good, the field was still very favorable to the Sixth Army.

The only thing that worries Bai Yan is that the Sixth Unit can clean up these two hundred or so people in time, and it can basically declare the exercise over.

Bai Yan was a little worried, but he wasn't too worried, it was really a small number of soldiers and horses led by Lin Jinhong, only two hundred people.

Even if the rear defense of the Sixth Army was relatively loose, with only 200 people, Bai Yan thought that the role it played was really limited.

After the sixth and fifth troops finally held each other for a short time, Qiu Rong led the troops to attack, and when the troops of the two sides began to make contact, Shen Zhenchuan, who was watching, sighed secretly in his heart.

The three-day exercise has only been going on for about a day and a half, could it be that this exercise ended so early, and the Fifth Army will end in failure? In the general command room of the fifth unit, the news from the front line flew here like snowflakes, Shen Jiabing frowned, and waited for the communication soldiers to go out, and the scorpion glanced at him and said: "I didn't expect the other party to adjust the defense line so quickly, and arrange the left side like an iron bucket."

If we continue our offensive on the left flank, we will be depleted and we will lose this exercise.

It is better to give up attacking the left flank, adjust the direction of the march, and move to the middle to attack. ”

Shen Jiabing shook his head and said: "It's useless, we turn to the middle lane, they will also focus the defense line on the middle lane, after all, they use transport planes and helicopters, and our troops use two legs, how can they outrun them."

A few more trips, I'm afraid that we will be exhausted first, and our morale will be low, and we will not be able to keep up with our physical fitness, so we can only admit defeat.

Let's take a look at Qiu Rong's attack first, I believe that up to now, Qiu Rong has not wielded her due ability, let's not suppress it too much. ”

Qiu Rong watched as the front and rear of her own personnel came out of the body from time to time and were sent out of the battlefield, but the opponent's position was always in the hands of the other party, and the two rounds of attacks she moved could not advance a bit.

If the attack continues, I am afraid that there will only be Sun Bing's generals, and there is no order from the rear so far, and it is estimated that there is no good way.

In the current situation, as the commander-in-chief of the front, he should make corresponding adjustments according to the actual situation on the battlefield.

Thinking of this, Qiu Rong finally decided to order the attack to be stopped, and the troops were withdrawn from the enemy's position one kilometer away, and held a temporary combat meeting, after some discussion, Qiu Rong decided to divide the troops into two ways, implement the strategy of attacking the east and the west, distract the enemy's defensive attention, and it is best to tear a hole in the opponent's key defensive formation, and then concentrate the superior forces to attack.

After Qiu Rong's troops retreated, the people of the Sixth Army, for the sake of stability, did not launch a counteroffensive, but let Qiu Rong's troops retreat smoothly.

And when Qiu Rong was stationed, they still didn't make a move, until Qiu Rong's troops were divided into two places, and part of the troops actually moved in the direction of the middle road.

The talent of the Sixth Unit felt that something was wrong, and while reporting to the General Headquarters, they were also actively preparing to take the initiative to attack the part of Qiu Rong's troops stationed one kilometer away.

After Bai Chengjiang heard the report from the front, he did not hesitate much, and immediately asked the frontline position to divide troops to increase troops in the middle road, and at the same time let the personnel of the left position take the initiative to attack Qiu Rong's troops.

Qiu Rong saw that the opposing troops left their positions and took the initiative to attack, and the time was ripe for the dark passage, so she ordered all the troops to retreat in the direction of the middle road.

As soon as they retreated, the personnel of the sixth unit, Zhang Er Jingang, were confused, and they were afraid that Qiu Rong would have some tricks, so they stopped the attack and prepared to return to the position.

As soon as they turned around and were about to return to their positions, Qiu Rong gathered troops and chased after them.

But as soon as the men of the Sixth Unit turned around and prepared to fight, Qiu Rong ordered the troops to withdraw to the center.

Such a rogue-like style of play finally angered the commanders and fighters of the Sixth Unit, and they desperately pursued Qiu Rong's troops.

Qiu Rong led the troops to run in front, and there were people chasing behind, and soon the two troops were farther away from the original position.

After Bai Chengjiang learned the news, he thundered and ordered the personnel who were pursuing in the back to immediately withdraw to their positions to prevent fraud.

But when they came to their senses and were about to return to the position to defend, it was already late, and the troops that were supposed to be in the middle by Qiu Rong's division were unconsciously turned back, cutting off the retreat of the sixth army to return to the position, and together with Qiu Rong, they carried out front and rear flanking attacks, and they were determined to eat this force of about 400 people.

The battle lasted nearly half an hour, and all 400 men of the 6th Army were wiped out, Qiu Rong's two troops lost more than 60 men, and the two armies also reunited and advanced to the left.

This is Qiu Rong's strategy to attack the west, his goal is not to attack the left side, but to lure the left defenders out of their positions and annihilate them near the center.

Then merge one place, kill to the middle, and kill the opponent by surprise.

In the previous division of troops, the main force was still Qiu Rong on the left, and only about three companies of troops were divided in the middle, which was really not enough offensive force.

This creates an illusion that Qiu Rong's final attack direction is still on the left side, and the middle lane is just a trick to lure the enemy, in this case, the number of people who divide from the left side to the middle lane must be limited.

Moreover, Qiu Rong deliberately let the defenders of the enemy position attack her, taking the opportunity to entangle the other party, and unknowingly dragging them towards the middle lane.

Because of their own troops dragging behind, the commanders and fighters of the sixth unit will definitely not think about the defense of the middle lane, which will inevitably create a little defense gap, which is what Qiu Rong needs.
