With the Dongdingzhou on the side of South Zicheng, after the railways of Zishengzhou were connected to each other, although the track gauge of the two sides was still different, the Southern Navy still forcibly connected the two railways through transit and other means, and used them as the main troop deployment and material supply line of the troops in Zishengzhou in the north.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for so many heavy artillery units of the Southern Navy to quickly reach Chongke City, and even if the artillery arrived, so many shells would not be able to deliver supplies, and this way would be more than 200 kilometers.

For a unit like the South China Navy, which is fully equipped with rear-loading guns and artillery, and has a large number of artillery pieces, especially heavy artillery units, and a particularly large number of cavalry units, the logistical pressure is very great.

Breech-loading rifles and rear-loading artillery consume several times more ammunition than smoothbore guns, and it is even more difficult for the South Korean Navy to use heavy artillery.

Aside from the consumption of guns and artillery, just more than nearly 100,000 cavalry horses, officer horses, and a larger number of service horses, these horses ate an astronomical amount of grain and grass, far more than the soldiers of the troops going north......

This horse eats more than a man......

The logistical pressure of the South China Navy has always been very large, and it is also the army with the greatest logistical pressure on the entire Blue Star, which is why the large-scale military operations of the South China Navy revolve around rivers and railway lines.

Even though the South China Navy has a large number of service horses and uses four-wheeled transport wagons for transportation, in fact, the South China Navy's consumption of ammunition and grain and grass is greater than before, so the combat distance that the unit's own logistics units can maintain is getting shorter and shorter.

In the early years, when the Yugoslav Navy had not yet assembled heavy artillery on a large scale and did not have so many cavalry units, the troops' own logistics units were able to maintain the operations of the troops at least 150 kilometers forward.

But now, the scale of the logistics baggage troops is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more service horses, and this distance is getting shorter and shorter, and now it is impossible to maintain even a hundred kilometers.

If this distance is exceeded, just relying on the army's own baggage troops, even if it is requisitioned to some kind of people, it will not be able to guarantee the normal logistics supply of the troops, and the cost will rise sharply, because the transport troops themselves, even if they are people, need to consume materials in this process, and the farther the distance, the greater the proportion of materials consumed by the transport troops themselves.

When it reaches a certain distance, the transportation of this material is not enough to transport the consumption of the troops themselves......

Many high-ranking generals of the South China Navy are very aware that although their troops' firepower superiority and cavalry superiority are also very strong, they pose a very great logistical challenge, so when fighting, they often consider the issue of logistics supply first.

It was for this reason that the engineering troops urgently built a temporary railway to connect the north-south line of Zishengzhou and even the subsequent east-west line.

Anyway, when the engineering troops built the railway, they were going to directly dismantle some nearby branch railways, and then transport the rails and sleepers here to lay them.

Even the technical indicators of the railway itself are not considered much, as long as the train can be run, it is a big deal to squat every day for maintenance, and maintain immediately if there is a problem, as for the high maintenance cost or something, it is not considered at all.

In times of war, everything is as fast as possible!

As long as the logistical problem is solved, then the other problems are not major problems, and at least the senior generals of the South China Navy are very confident in this.

As long as the time difference is well established and the intervention army of Quyang Prefecture and the intervention army of the northern states in the north are not allowed to converge, then there will be no major problems in the entire strategy.

Why don't you let the other party converge, this is actually very simple, the First Cavalry Army is still more than thirty kilometers north of South Purple City, and it is still continuing to go north.

In the face of tens of thousands of cavalry troops, the first batch of 50,000 people of the intervention army in the northern states dared to continue to go south!

After making many arrangements that night, the next day the South China Navy continued to launch a fierce offensive against Zhongyan Mountain, and in order to gain time, it did not even care about casualties.

In the first batch of main attack troops, the 13th Division suffered more than 1,000 casualties in just one hour, but the attack of the South China Navy still did not stop, and the front-line troops suffered heavy casualties, so they withdrew to rest and recuperate, and other troops went up again.

Since the morning, the artillery unit has concentrated almost all of its artillery to bombard Zhongyan Mountain.

Countless shells fell, and this kind of battle was even bigger than yesterday's shelling, so that Feng Ziqi, who was observing and commanding in the city, was a little helpless.

The fierce artillery fire of the South China Sea constantly refreshed his cognition every day, and helplessness followed.

In the face of this level of shelling, it is simply impossible to resist, and even the rear-loading rifled guns of the artillery regiment of the Third Division deployed on Zhongyan Mountain do not dare to easily take the lead to counterattack now, and in just over a day of fighting, this artillery regiment has already lost more than half, and only about 20 75-mm breech-loading rifled guns are only up and down.

These artillery pieces did not dare to swagger on the original preset artillery positions, but were pulled down to various hidden positions, and occasionally shelled some key targets.

The artillery units were miserable, and their garrison infantry units were actually even more miserable, and they had to resist stubbornly under the heavy artillery bombardment of the South China Navy, which was tantamount to suffering double casualties.

In just one morning, the commander of the Third Division of the Zisheng Army, Feng Ziqi's confidant, his cousin Feng Zishu said to Feng Ziqi with a crying voice: "My lord, you can't fight like this anymore, it's only been less than two days, and we have already killed and injured more than 4,000 people, these are all our children and nephews in Jiangyang County, and they are all our children and nephews!" ”

Feng Ziqi listened, did not answer immediately, but clenched his fists.

He Feng Ziqi is a native of Jiangyang County, Zisheng Prefecture, this Jiangyang County is where he started, and it is also his hometown, this third division is up to the division commander and down to the horseman, all of them are his children in Jiangyang County, and many of them are still from the Feng clan.

The division commander is his cousin, and the regiment commander is his nephew, and many high-ranking generals are actually related to their Feng family.

It is precisely because of this that this third division is his descendant unit!

With so many deaths and injuries, can he not be heartbroken.

I can't breathe because of the pain!

This is not a question of loss or not, after so many relatives and friends were killed and injured, how will he explain to his relatives and friends in the future? How to explain to your hometown?

But can this not be fought?

The Southern Navy is now crazy and storming Zhongyan Mountain, and its strategic intentions can be seen by fools, that is, they want to capture Zhongyan Mountain, and then deploy a large number of artillery on Zhongyan Mountain.
