923 Cao Ang's vision
Inside the Cao Jun barracks. A large number of troops are being drilled. Cao Ang came from the Republican Army, and he was still wearing a military uniform issued by the Republican Army, but there was no military rank on it, and many people looked at Cao Ang. But soon, they were reprimanded by their instructor.
Because this distracts them, how can a military man be distracted, if it is on the battlefield, they will suffer a big setback. Loss. What is lost may be their lives.
"Ahh A few screams came. Instructors usually treat such soldiers in the simplest way, directly beating them with sticks.
Under the education of sticks, the soldier's memory will soon grow higher.
Or, rather, the use of starvation. Many soldiers have experienced hunger, and the taste is very uncomfortable.
Of course, the method of reward is also very simple, add meals. The soldier would eat some of the pitiful meat. For example, some canned meat, which are some supplies aided by the Republican Army. But for the Cao soldiers, it was already the best result.
Cao Ang shook his head helplessly. Because the training of soldiers is still very backward. The queue is extremely loose. The whole team was also very dragging its feet. The discipline of the team can only be maintained by the sticks of the instructors. When such troops go to the battlefield, they basically will not play much role, and their own combat effectiveness is not too strong.
However, Cao Jun did not receive a new way of military training, and in such a situation, it was a very bad situation for them.
Cao Jun's training level is very low as a whole, and there is no way, and many veterans in the army rely on their own experience to carry out it.
Although they also borrowed some of the Republican Army's team-building methods, they did not promote them very well. After all, the quality of their soldiers is very low, coupled with the constant use of sticks, the motivation is not very high. In such a situation, it is good that they can make such a big improvement.
Cao Ang knew that if he wanted Cao Jun to improve more space, he still needed to work military training.
Cao Ang soon entered his father's tent.
Cao Cao seemed to be busy. He was talking to some people, as if he wanted to organize something, and he didn't show much concern for Cao Ang.
Cao Ang didn't have anything, he knew that busy people were like this. So, he began to look at some of the maps inside the tent.
The map looks simple, even, extremely crude.
The map is spliced together with wooden boards, because the map is relatively large, it is a map near Luoyang, which is much more detailed, and the advantages are detailed, the larger the planks are needed. It seems that his father has also put a lot of effort into this. After all, this thing is directly related to their next battle.
Cao Ang was still a little uncomfortable looking at these maps, because the maps of the Republican Army had scales and contour lines. Being able to see the terrain, the landforms, and in very places, they can also do something extremely favorable to indicate that some situations are much more favorable. However, at the moment, the maps they collected are not advanced enough.
You must know that the surveying and mapping technology of the Republican Army is very advanced, and the cadets who graduate from the military academy can calculate, and the calculation foundation they learn can enter the surveying and mapping department as long as they learn a little study.
Moreover, the Republican Army has special staff officers for such things, and their airships will also perform such mapping tasks at some point. Although it may take a little longer and sometimes not be very accurate, it is quite enough in comparison.
If it weren't for the Republican Army's major reforms on the map, there would have been no developed engineering system at all. In this regard, Cao Jun's situation is still very unfavorable.
Cao Ang feels that there is only one and fastest way to solve such a problem as soon as possible. That is to introduce such talents on a large scale. But digging into the corners of the Republican Army requires them to have enough financial resources to do this, and he doesn't know if he has enough financial resources, after all, sometimes, they still need to make a lot of improvements to solve such problems, otherwise, they themselves will not be able to complete such some situations.
Cao Ang looked at the map and heard something from his father's conversation.
The second tranche of IRA military aid is temporarily unavailable. The reason is that the Republican Army, as an investor, needs to see Cao Jun's ability. After all, some places are still difficult to explain, if Cao Jun did not have such ability, and quickly lost a lot of military aid, what would be done next? The IRA will choose to stop the loss. After all, the IRA's approach is the businessman's faction.
Once the business is not doing well, or if they do not make money, but lose money, they will decisively stop investing. After all, no businessman wants to see more places losing money, and it will be very troublesome for them. So, in order to get the next step of military assistance from the Republican Army. His own father planned to fight a battle in the eastern region. Expand to a larger territory. Expand the population. In this case, seeing so many results will inevitably lead to a greater degree of military assistance.
It can be said that the next battle was a battle to win the confidence of the Republican Army. In this battle, there must be a great victory. Let the IRA see the value of the investment, the meaning.
This is the purpose for which the battle is conducted. It is also a strategic, campaign objective.
But how to proceed. Cao Jun's situation is not too favorable. Because Cao Ang didn't see a lot of things marked on the map. They have only the situation in some nearby areas, however, the local garrison, and the number of troops. There are not many situations in which in such a situation can become much more advantageous. Cao Ang is thinking more about this issue.
From the perspective of the Republican Army, the Cao Army will inevitably take the initiative and occupy the initiative. However, there is also a large part of the presence of troops in the vicinity.
For example, their next target is the Bao Xin Division, in the past, when the Kwantung Coalition Army, the number of Bao Xin Divisions was not very large, only 5,000 soldiers, but once the battle mobilization is carried out, the number will increase a lot.
And Cao Jun's purpose was to expand his territory. Although it is not a big problem to occupy a few county seats, the key point is how to deal with the other side's reinforcements, strike at the opponent's living forces, and then continue to expand the results of the battle.
Another point, the training of soldiers, most of them are recruits. The combat capability of the recruits is generally not high.
Let them face directly with such combat units. It seems that the pressure is still relatively high, which is for either side. Not too good a result.
Cao Ang is now thinking about this war through the eyes of a staff officer. Although Cao Ang was supposed to learn some staff courses, it seemed that it was too late to study now. He is now in such a position.
Cao Ang began to try to think about these issues from a higher level, which he had never noticed.
For example, at the beginning, he only noticed the situation at the tactical and local campaign level, but from the perspective of the whole strategy and campaign, he did not have such a thinking.
Cao Ang has already started the work of a staff officer.
Cao Ang still has some talent for this, after all, he has actual experience in front-line combat.
Cao Ang knew the tactics of the Republican Army and surrounded the point to send reinforcements. This is a classic IRA tactic. And it can become extremely advantageous.
Cao's army was a large number of recruits, which meant that they still had many disadvantages on the open, frontal battlefield and could not maintain the discipline of the army. Especially in the offensive and counterattack phases, once there is chaos, the consequences are unimaginable.
However, if it is an ambush, the advantage of the recruits becomes great.
Cao Jun's task was to expand his territory. At the same time, guard against the counterattack of the opponent's living forces. This is the more troublesome point. So, in such a case. Cao Jun still has a lot to do.
They are not very offensive and strong. But it can surround each other and scare each other.
Once the ambush is set up and the other party's reinforcements are eaten, it will be extremely beneficial to the Cao army for the surrounding county and some other territories.
"What, have an idea?" Just when Cao Ang had a preliminary plan for the battle. Cao Cao asked, standing behind Cao Ang.
"Father." After Cao Ang heard his father's voice, he hurriedly saluted.
"There is no need to be polite in the army. I see you're fascinated by the map? What do you think? You, a captain officer in the Republican Army, do you have any ideas? I know that you are valued by the commanders of the Republican Army, and I am ready to recommend you to work in the General Staff. Cao Cao said.
"Father, the child does have some ideas, I don't know if they are mature." Cao Ang said with some concern.
"It's okay, let's talk about it." Cao Cao said.
Immediately, Cao Ang explained what he had just thought to Cao Cao one by one, and boldly borrowed some tactical examples from the Republican Army. At the same time, I made some improvements based on some of the situations I saw.
Cao Cao didn't say a word during the whole process, and some other generals also gathered around to listen to Cao Ang's tactical and battle arrangements.
Encircling the point to send reinforcements is to make the Cao army, which has little advantage, become advantageous, and this situation requires Cao Jun to make changes to a greater extent. This change seems to be a lot. But it can allow Cao Jun to maintain a greater degree of advantage.
Cao Cao after listening to Cao Ang's explanation. looked at Cao Ang for a long time. He felt that the decision he had made was the right one.
