In the camp of the Buyantu River, Li Jiusi, the Duke of Eguo, and a dozen generals had not slept well for several days.

Liu Yu led his troops to pursue Xiao Celing Dundobu, and then was attacked and besieged. Since then, there has been no news.

Is it a win? Or lose?

Going deep alone, going deep alone, this is a taboo for soldiers.

Even though Li Jiusi recognized the combat effectiveness of the Qingzhou Army, he was still uneasy about this strategy.

The emperor's side had been shaken before, thinking that the main force of the Zhun Department was on the western front, not the northern front, and several orders were sent in a row, although the wording was ambiguous, but it meant that Liu Yu was required to quickly build a city in the mountain pass and climb the mountain.

Now Liu Yu can be regarded as seeking benevolence, and the main force of the quasi-department is really in Shanbei.

But what about the winner?

If it fails, it is likely that this strategy, which cost millions of taels, will fail.

Even though the Yasukuni Gong still has an elite army in his hands to defend the north of the capital, if the quasi-army wins the field battle, the capital will face a threat, and the north and south will probably have a draw if the strategy of entering the Western Regions fails.

It's not that you can't beat it, it's that you don't have money.

In order to levy the Ministry of Approval, the relief of the Shandong disaster has been saved a lot, and the grain that has been hoarded for five years is enough to fight for one year.

Once there is a draw, the quasi-ministerial peace talks, and the tribute, it may really take another few years or even ten years before it can be fought again.

Moreover, the Rakshasa country has been eyeing the tiger, and when the time comes, the quasi-department will also have losses, but the Rakshasa fisherman will take the opportunity to go south to build a fort, which will become a big disaster in the future.

Li Jiusi paced inside the big tent, whether he opened the big tent to see if there was any movement outside.

His eyes were red and swollen, he hadn't slept well for several days, and he couldn't eat at all.

On that day's strategy, he strongly supported the emperor's "allowing the plan to go deep into the field", and this battle could not be defeated.

Report!

Report!

There was a shout outside, and everyone in the tent jumped up and rushed to the door of the tent.

When he saw the herald holding the blue flag in his hand and making a gesture of reporting victory, Li Jiusi only felt that his eyes were dark, and he almost sat on the ground.

The person next to him hurriedly held on, and Li Jiusi shouted, "Say it quickly!" Say it! ”

"Returning to the general, Lord Liu encountered the main force of the quasi-army near Shan'er Gabo. Our army has won a great victory, a great victory! ”

"The enemy commander Da Ce Ling Dun Dob was captured, and the little Ce Ling Dun Dob was killed. Our army suffered 1,200 dead and wounded, 7,000 quasi-killed, 9,000 captured, and countless camels and horses captured! ”

Li Jiusi ran over, grabbed the good news book, glanced at it a few times, and laughed: "Okay! All right! Sure enough, it was a big victory! Quasi-department, dead! ”

The general next to him was stunned, unable to believe that this was true.

1,200 casualties, 7,000 of the quasi-divisions annihilated, 9,000 captured? Although it is said that there were not many dead in the quasi-department, and most of the 7,000 dead and wounded were wounded, but the wounds caused by lead bullets did not die at that time, and they died in three or five days.

Can...... But isn't this result too terrifying?

Infantry fighting cavalry, can you achieve such results?

It was not a rout, but a standard war of annihilation, the quasi-troops were killed and captured, plus those who fled in all directions and did not catch but could not be assembled, nearly 20,000 troops were lost here, and it was impossible for the quasi-troops to gather such a field force again.

The point is, one was captured and the other was killed in battle?

After Li Jiusi finished reading the report, he handed it to the rest of the people, stroked his beard and laughed: "When I was in Weihai, when I saw him training, I knew what he could do. Now that the war is over, I am not afraid to tell you that the strategy set by His Majesty is to plan what is planned. ”

"On that day, His Majesty said that if the Zhun troops wanted to survive the death, they must gather troops on the northern road and strive for a battle. Your Majesty has seen it, and it is really unpredictable. ”

Liu Yu is good at training, but according to what he said, his training is the top, the army is second, and the battle is the bottom. He can play such a result in battle, and I will have no worries in the future! ”

Li Jiusi couldn't praise Liu Yu for being too ruthless, this skill was naturally the emperor's. These nobles all know that the emperor is so happy, and they always want to brush up their prestige in the army, and now that they have won a big victory, they naturally want to blow a wave for the emperor.

The rest of the people took the victory book and looked at it carefully, and it was very clear what was written in the victory book about how to fight this battle.

After reading it, several people felt that Li Jiusi's words seemed to be correct. Training is the top, the army is second, and the battle is the bottom.

That's it?

There is no mystery scheme, and there is no battlefield insight, and what is written in the report book is simply boring.

"Before the battle, the shelling, the destruction of the quasi-artillery. The quasi-division attacked my left flank, the left flank formed a formation to defend it, and the cavalry counterattacked. Taking advantage of the chaos, the quasi-troops attacked our Chinese army and plotted to divide it. Our Chinese army formed seven phalanxes in depth, so that the quasi-attack could not be achieved, and most of the cavalry were killed and wounded. Our right flank infantry attacked, swept the flank of the quasi-department, and the artillery on the hill bombarded it, opening the gap, and the quasi-department collapsed. ”

There are also a few pictures below, which draw the offensive and defensive postures of the two sides on the map, which is clear at a glance.

It's as simple as that?

A few generals who had only fought small battles in China thought about it and couldn't help but shake their heads, what is this? Is this level of the quasi-department?

There are also a few generals who have really fought with the Dzungar Ministry and fought a war of 10,000 people in the northwest, but they can see the horror contained in this simple situation.

The infantry formed a formation, and they didn't need a car battalion, so they directly blocked the cavalry of the quasi-department?

According to the size of the battlefield, how could those battalions support the Chinese army from the right flank, how could they go so fast?

The quasi-cavalry rushed to the phalanx without even one of them, and was shot to death?

The infantry on the right flank relied on two legs, opening the gap to completing the encirclement, basically pushing all the way through, according to the speed of this battlefield, the musketeers of the quasi-division were almost at the touch of a button? How is this done?

Several generals called the victorious rider and asked, "When you outflanked the right flank, didn't the musketeers of the quasi-division shoot?" ”

"Back to the generals, the Quasi-Musketeers have been putting their guns down. After the grenadier battalion column charged, it spread out a horizontal line in front of the formation, and after a salvo of fire, it charged directly, and the quasi-musketeers collapsed. The infantry battalion next to it rushed to the gap in columns, turned to spread out the horizontal formation, formed a cross, and the two rounds of fire broke up. ”

Li Jiusi had seen such a tactic on Liugong Island, but the rest of the generals had never seen it, and they couldn't figure it out.

Then he asked: "Then the quasi-cavalry attacked the Chinese army, and you didn't form a big formation?" ”

"Back to the generals, Lord Liu said that it is useless to form a large array. The larger and wider the formation, it was forcing the opposing cavalry to ram up. Each battalion formed a small formation, and the cavalry could only collide with a dozen horses head-on, and the rest could not rush away, so they could only go around to the side. When they went around to the side, the battalion phalanx, which was horned by each other, fired muskets, like bathing in the rain, and the quasi-cavalry collapsed in a short time. ”

These generals were completely speechless, when did the war become so boring?

If they lead troops against cavalry, Dashun has a phalanx, and they must form a phalanx of spearmen, and the arquebusiers shoot indiscriminately under the cover of the spearmen.

In the end, if you want to drive the cavalry away, you have to rely on your own cavalry. At most, the enemy's cavalry can't rush away, but it's not enough to say that the cavalry was directly shot by the infantry, right?

As for the fact that the artillery suppressed the artillery of the quasi-department, there is no problem with that.

After Da Shun regained from Jing Xiang, he relied on artillery to win. It also relied on the fact that there were more artillery and less artillery around it, and the formation of a 30-year war level was beaten into an invincible opponent in East Asia, and the formation was getting thicker and thicker all day long in the northwest or before the invasion of Mongolia, and the cavalry was getting more and more, and the infantry resisted the cavalry and killed.

Li Jiusi smiled: "Okay, don't ask again." Liu Shouchang said that he must train a controlled army, and even incompetent generals cannot be defeated lightly. I just said, he trains the troops first, if you are in charge of the Qingzhou soldiers, it will not be better than him. ”

From the worry just now to the ecstasy at this time, Li Jiusi was already smiling from ear to ear. He is already a hereditary duke, and it is impossible to climb up, taking charge of the northern front, and urging Liu Yu to plan the plan, although this battle is not fought by him, but this credit will not be lost by half a point.

Now he has captured the Great Ce Ling Dun Dobu, which also perfectly proves that the emperor is "wise and powerful", which can be described as a great victory.

"Where is the Great Celingtondob now?"

"I am still on my way back to China. Lord Liu sent a group to escort him to prevent being robbed. Lord Liu said that he hoped that the prince of the country would quickly send grain, grass and gunpowder support, and the weather would be fine in the past few days, and Lord Liu would cross the Altai Mountains as soon as possible. In addition, there is an epistle. ”

The rider took out the letter in his arms, Li Jiusi glanced at it a few times, knew that the letter was of great significance, and said, "Okay, you go down and rest." Someone came, and asked someone to escort the grain, grass, and gunpowder that had been prepared before to the front. Send more men to press back the captured quasi-soldiers, as well as those camels and horses. ”

Before Liu Yu set off, it had already been arranged. Once the front line is won, supplies must arrive quickly, and the army must move south over the mountains with lightning speed.

The battle on the northern front has proved that the only thing that can stop Liu Yu's 10,000 people is the Altai Mountains.

After turning over the mountain, the quasi-department was no longer able to win, unless Liu Yu's brain suddenly broke down, and he didn't send scouts and cavalry, and he didn't repair the camp, and the quasi-department took the opportunity to rob the camp.

Li Jiusi carefully looked at the letter in his hand, and knew that the capture of Dace Ling Dun Dobu was of great significance, if he could use this to pacify the Zhun Ministry, he could indeed stabilize the Western Regions, after all, the new conquest, once the Zhun Bu was completely defeated, those chaotic forces would definitely take advantage of the situation.

After collecting the letter, he first sent someone to hurry south to report the victory to the emperor's camp, and he told the rest of the people to be busy, preparing to receive the prisoners, count the captures, and send support.

When the military order was issued, the generals in the tent smiled bitterly: "Liu Yu decided the Western Regions in the first battle, but too many people suffered. In the army of the West Road, I don't know how many people are waiting for this battle, in order to be crowned a wife and a son, and a knight to make meritorious contributions. Now it's good, the rest of the battle is to build the city and advance. He climbed the mountain and went straight to the heart of the army, so is there still a battle in the army of the West Road? Now, it depends on who runs faster and who runs to Ili first. ”

Li Jiusi also smiled: "That's right. However, you have built the city, transported food, and covered the city, all of which are credit, so there is no need to worry. There will be no less rewards, but there were originally many viscounts and earls, but now it seems that there are very few knights in this battle. ”

Several people looked at the south and sighed bitterly: "I don't know how many people are crying when the news of the victory arrives." The quasi-ministry is flat, and the military merits will be knighted in the future, how can there be a chance? ”

It is not only to talk about others, but also to sigh for oneself. The Western Regions are established, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to have a chance to be knighted in the future. I thought it was a tough battle, how many people waited and looked forward to it, but in the end it ended up like this. The dynasty won the Western Regions, and it was already comparable to Li Tang, and they all felt that if they fought again in the future, it would be a reckless army. Can this chance of knighthood be there again? Who else can the dynasty fight?
