953 The mountain rain is coming
The day after the Nicole left the Blue Pier, the atmosphere in Sin'an became even more tense, and the day after the Nicole left the Blue Pier, Pimont took the Portuguese merchants from Oecussi City to visit the Governor's Palace in Sindan City, and they reported to Xiao Pingguo the latest news from the jungle:
Today, the jungle south of Oecussi City has once again become the world of indigenous tribes, and the people of Oecussi City have begun to prepare for war.
And Xiao Pingguo and they had already received the news that the scouts of the Loka tribe had figured out the enemy who had entered the mountains south of Okusi City, one of the most elite main forces of the rebel tribe: a part of the Belu tribe and the entire Dunnor tribe, a coalition of more than 5,000 people.
Xiao Pingguo and the others also knew that the warriors of these two tribes were the best equipped and strongest in the entire tribal alliance.
Although by this time the Portuguese already knew that the spearhead of the alliance of the southern tribes of the mountains was Sin'an, but the army was suddenly approaching, and a large group of malicious indigenous warriors were close at hand, and for the people of Oecussi, they must have to guard against it, so the Portuguese city council of Oecussi City hurriedly sent people to Dili City, asking the governor to immediately send reinforcements to help defend Oecusi City, in case the enemy may attack the city temporarily.
To this end, Pimont sent the Princess Casa and the Archangel, two of the most powerful medium-sized galleons, to the shores of Oecussi City, carrying more than 500 shieldmen and musketeers, armed with 1,500 Type 57 grenades@ bombs and two crossbows that could fire Australian explosives@ pill packs, and twenty pill packs.
However, there is a real panic in Xin'an City now, where people are privately talking about the various things that have happened in the jungle recently, including the increasing number of jungle robberies, and some people are also describing the scene they saw in the depths of the jungle - groups of warriors, the feathers on their heads are endless, and from a distance, it is like the multicolored flower dove in the jungle in the dry season......
The people talked about what they had seen, and then looked worriedly at the not-so-tall and weak double-row wooden walls of the mezzanine mezzanine – a nom for the weakness of the majestic stone walls of Dili not far away, standing alone for hundreds of meters, with the grass-covered fields and jungles beneath the skyline, and the mountain of Tatamerao, with its white clouds and mountains......
At this time, people were worried that they did not know which side the mountain god of the sacred mountain would stand......
For Xin'an City: As the so-called, the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings.
"So, the goddess of victory will definitely be on our side!"
At this moment, in the conference room on the second floor of the Governor's Palace, a large-scale topographical map of the surrounding area of Sinanseong is hung on the west wall, with various signs and symbols on the map, depicting in detail the topography of the city wall and the surrounding five kilometers of the city.
In front of the map, Su Gaofei was holding a long chopstick used by the chef in the kitchen as an indicator stick, pointing to a certain place on the map, explaining what to the current audience.
According to Sun Lao's instructions, the Sin'an Fortress side should report the garrison plan and the list of materials that need support as soon as possible and send it to the Red Mansion by telegram within two days, because the Yi Wusan was about to depart.
Therefore, all the traversers came to participate in this meeting, but the audience in the conference room at present was all the traversers in Xin'an City except Xiao Wei and the others, the first two had just left and went to another small reception room to receive Father Loka, and I heard that the latter had brought the latest news about the invasion of the indigenous tribal alliance in the southern mountains of Oecusi City.
At this moment, Su Gaofei was introducing the defense plan of Xin'an City to everyone as the chief of staff of the garrison, because the stakes were very important, so the audience looked serious and listened very seriously, and no one arbitrarily interrupted the introduction of Chief of Staff Su.
The day before yesterday, Sun Lao sent a telegram formally appointing Su Gaofei as chief of staff of the Xin'an City Federal Garrison -- according to the information leaked by the recent telegrams from three ships and three places, Sun Lao, Zhu Beiguo, Xu Zhi, and others have recently jointly submitted a series of motions to the Senate on the aspects of the state structure, including a bill to formally form the Federal Road Army on the basis of local garrisons, and the grapevine said that the Xin'an City Garrison will be given the number of "Second Brigade of the Federal Army."
However, Wei Hong is quite worried about this, he thinks that the reason why Ren Ke's Zixia Island garrison got the number of the first brigade of the federal army is entirely because of the result of racial discrimination by some people in the red mansion - or according to rumors, Sun Lao originally planned to give the number of the first brigade to Xin'an City, because the Xin'an City garrison is the earliest armed force established by the traversers, but some people say that the composition of the soldiers of the Xin'an City garrison is basically black natives plus Japanese red hairy people, and it is inappropriate to give the number of the first brigade of the army, and it is dignified that the first brigade of the federal army, this number is still better than Zixia Island or Wanshan Island, after all, the vast majority of those teams are Han soldiers.
Although the final result is not yet known, the number of this first brigade will definitely not be given to the Xin'ancheng garrison.
In any case, Sun Lao still sent a consoling telegram to Xin'ancheng on the eve of the war, informing Wei Hong, Xiao Pingguo, and others that the Senate had accepted the army building plan that Wei Hong had reported to the Senate some time ago: to set up a special staff department in the garrison and to establish the post of chief of staff.
So in order to appease Wei Hong, Sun Lao quickly published the full text of the "Federal Army Infantry Drill Code (Draft for Comments)" formulated by Wei Hong in his capacity as president, and then officially appointed Su Gaofei, the former deputy governor of Xin'an City, as the chief of staff of the Xin'an City Garrison - as an affirmation of the "Australian Federal Army Infantry Drill Code" written by Wei Hong.
At this time, Su Gaofei's mood was very high, not because he had a favorite title - chief of staff, but because everyone entrusted him to formulate a combat plan, which is the duty of the chief of staff, Su Gaofei was very excited, so he convened a meeting today, the content of which was to introduce the combat plan he had made all night long.
At this time, Su Gaofei's indicator stick pointed to the map, pointed to the northwest corner of Xin'an City, and told the audience that this is the junction of the wooden wall in the western section and the wooden wall in the southern section, and judging from the experience of previous defensive operations in Xin'an City, it is likely to be the main breakthrough point for the enemy to adopt the tactics of crowd warfare.
In this regard, Su Gaofei further explained:
"If we look at the topography and location of Sin'an Fortress, we can see that the closer the wooden wall in the western section is to the coastline, the easier it is to defend and more difficult to attack, and the less the enemy will place the main force there.
First of all, because of the topography, there is a lowland plain, the sea water is poured out badly, from the coastline to the inland area of hundreds of meters, forming a tidal flat landform, so that the ground there is very muddy, and now the rainy season is coming soon, so there will become more muddy, walking there on weekdays are one foot higher and one foot lower, not to mention the combat charge?
