Chapter 898: New Scout Tactics
Zhao Junsheng thought for a while, and said to Yuan He: "Go and choose five clever and some thousand commanders to come over!" ”
"No!"
It didn't take long for Genga to go out, and he brought back five thousand commanders, these five thousand commanders are old and young, the oldest is in his forties, and the youngest is in his twenties, but they all have a common characteristic, they are not very rude-by, flexible in their brains, quick to respond, open-minded, not old-fashioned, not stereotyped.
Zhao Junsheng didn't need to try, he swept his gaze to the faces of these five commanders, these five people are absolutely fine, they may not have the commanding ability to command large-scale battles, and they do not have the ability to be brave and invincible, but they are definitely not conformists, and such people are needed to perform wolf pack tactics and guerrilla warfare.
Zhao Junsheng looked at these five people and pondered in his heart, and for the sake of safety, he still decided to choose someone who was reassuring enough to fight a wave of offensives.
"Yang Lie!"
All the eyes in the tent were focused on a military general in his thirties, Yang Lie was the first martial champion after the founding of the Great Qian, and the first martial champion since the creation of the martial arts system.
"The minister is here!"
Zhao Junsheng said: "I will give you a thousand cavalry team, and you will take them to take the lead, the wolf tactics and guerrilla tactics are not unfamiliar, right?" ”
These two tactics are compulsory subjects in the senior generals' class of the Qianguo Military Academy, and they are also subjects that can only be studied by generals at the rank of commander and above.
In the Qianguo Army, although these two tactics are not bad, almost every senior general who enters the military academy for further training has learned them, but whether or not they can be flexibly used after learning them is a matter of personal ability.
Just like Sun Tzu's Art of War, countless copies have been published and printed after 1,500 years, and the whole world knows it, not to mention one copy per person, at least many people have this art of war at home, but how many people can really use it flexibly in the military and all walks of life?
"The minister has learned, and he has also pondered these two tactics!"
Zhao Junsheng nodded: "That's okay, I hope you get off to a good start!" ”
"Obey the order!"
The prerequisite for the implementation of wolf pack tactics and guerrilla tactics is not to be overtaken, so the teams that need to participate in the implementation of these two tactics must be highly flexible and mobile. Yang Lie brought more than 1,000 horses with him when he left, so that each cavalry could have two horses to ride in turn, and although he could not double his speed, he could at least maintain high high-speed mobility.
As for the flexibility of the troops, don't worry, the cavalry of the cadres and cavalry is the most basic training subject, and now the military recruitment has listed riding as a threshold, and if the riding skills are not good, they are not even qualified to enlist in the army.
The flexibility of the team is determined by two main factors, namely the riding skills of the soldiers and the size of the team.
Let's talk about the cavalry's riding skills first, if the soldiers have superb riding skills as a whole, they have irreplaceable advantages in emergency stopping, turning, changing formations, and executing tactics; In addition, the size of the team, regardless of the degree of training and military discipline, once the size of the army reaches a certain level, its flexibility will inevitably become weaker, so the smaller the size of the team, it is easy to complete in all aspects such as the demand for baggage, transportation, the camping of soldiers, marching and assembly, etc., and the larger the size of the team, the more difficult it is to manage.
After the rain passed, the scout sentry of the Rouran people began to go out again, which inevitably encountered and clashed with the scout sentry of the cadre army, and the scout sentry of the cadre army soon detected that the scout sentry of the Rouran people sent many scouts to search for the traces of Kurenzhi's army in a large area.
After hearing the report of the scouts, Zhao Junsheng said to the ministers and generals: "It seems that the Rouran Khan Tuhe Zhen and his ministers still haven't given up on Kurenzhi, do you think they can find Kurenzhi who was buried in the reeds and his 10,000 horses?" ”
Dongfang Chen stood up and said: "According to the location of Kuren's direct department, if he wants to lead his army to the Shan Khan Mountain, then the reeds seem to be the only way to go, and the scouts of the Rouran people will definitely go north along this route to search!" If they find Kuren Naobe buried in the reeds, Toga will realize that we have fallen into our trap! According to the news sent by Chang Kun, Bendu and Kuhehan have turned around one after another, and they should have received an order from Tuga Zhen, which means that Tuga Zhen should have noticed it, so he gave the order to make them turn around, and now they are going to gather their forces to prevent them from being broken by us! ”
Regarding Dongfang Chen's speculation, Zhao Junsheng basically agreed.
At this moment, Zhao Ping came to report: "Father Qiqi, I just received the news that Chang Kun quickly caught up with the Kuhehan Department after eating away from the Bendu Department, it is said that this Kuhehan was the general of the Rouran General Pi Lixian, he was more familiar with the wolf pack tactics, but he did not have any effective way to crack the tactics he used against Chang Kun, so he decisively gave up the plan to compete with Chang Kun after losing 3,000 people, and took the team to abandon all the baggage that could be discarded and moved closer to the Shan Khan Mountain as quickly as possible. At present, the Kuhehan tribe should have arrived at the Shan Khan Mountain! ”
Yuan He smiled: "This Hu Hehan is quite clever, when he sees that the situation is not good, he loses his baggage and runs away, if he hesitates for half a minute, I am afraid that it will not be so easy to escape back to the Shan Khan Mountain!" ”
Li Bao said with a smile: "This is also because Chang Kun annihilated the men and horses of Bendu in advance, the soldiers and horses must be a little tired, if he attacks Kuhehan in full state, it will not be easy for him to escape even if he wants to!" ”
Zhao Junsheng's mind was on the overall situation, he thought for a while and asked, "Do you know what the correctness of the commander's military order depends on?" ”
Wei Jing said: "Father, the son thinks it is a judgment of the situation between the enemy and us!" ”
"And what is the basis for judgment?"
Wei Jing thought for a moment and replied: "It should be the degree of understanding of the enemy and our side, that is, knowing oneself and knowing the enemy mentioned in the art of war!" ”
Zhao Junsheng nodded in agreement: "That's right, it's the understanding of our army and the collection of information about the enemy!" The commanders of the two sides were actually fighting before the official launch, trying every means to collect information about the enemy, and what to use to collect information about the enemy? The usual means are nothing more than planting an inside line within the enemy or bribing the other party's people to be used by us; The second is to use scout outposts to conduct instant reconnaissance of enemy forces! ”
"The role of the inner line is generally to probe the strategic information of the enemy's army, that is, the overall strategic layout of the enemy's operations and the strategic goals to be achieved; The role of our scout sentry is generally to spy on the enemy's tactical information! Strategic layouts and goals need to be achieved with local campaigns and tactics! If the enemy army is completely unable to collect information about our army, whether strategic or tactical, their commander-in-chief will become deaf and blind, and will not be able to make correct judgments and give accurate orders! ”
Speaking of this, Zhao Junsheng looked at the generals: "So, I would like to ask the generals, now we need to know the wolf pack tactics and guerrilla warfare methods, and to achieve the desired results, what is the first thing to do?" ”
Wei Jing immediately said: "Block all possibilities for leaking news!" The minister has an idea to use his teeth as a unit to carry out large-scale control of the scout sentry cavalry of the Rouran Army! Erchen thinks that this formation is the most suitable, if the Rouran army comes to a group or a scout, our cavalry with one tooth is enough to surround them and not run away from one! ”
"If the Rouran army sends a tooth to spy on our army, our teeth can cooperate with each other to leave the enemy's men and horses with a tooth. In this way, no matter how many scouts they send, there will be no return! Also, if our side takes the tooth as a unit, the range that can be deployed will be very large, and the troops used will not be very large, and they can disperse the action in a unit or even as a unit, so that the soft scout can not be splashed with water, and the needle cannot be inserted, once the enemy scout is found, quickly assemble and launch an outflanking attack with the tooth as a unit! ”
Zhao Junsheng thought about it for a while, although Wei Jing's method still has loopholes, it does seem to be a very good way to prevent the enemy army from collecting our military information.
"Okay, Wei Jing listens to the order!"
"Erchen is here!"
"I give you 3,000 men, no matter how you deploy, as long as I become deaf and blind as long as Rouran Khan Tuhe Zhen becomes deaf and blind, I don't know any movement of our army at all!"
"Erchen takes orders!" Wei Jing received the military order and turned around to prepare.
The distance between the Qianguo and the Qianguo border was less than 200 miles, and the U-turn of the Kuhehan tribe was not far from the mountain, and after losing 3,000 men, they ran back to the mountain as fast as possible.
Kuhehan's embarrassment and the fact that all the horses under his command were sleepy and lacking made Toga really have a bad premonition in his heart.
"Kuhehan meets the Khan!"
Tuhezhen asked worriedly: "Kuhehan, what happened to you, why are you so embarrassed?" What about your baggage? The cattle and sheep are gone, and even the flags and the leather armor of the soldiers are gone. ”
There was deep fear in Hu Hehan's eyes, "After I received the Khan's order, I stopped the pursuit, and quickly turned around and rushed to converge, but only half a day later, we were caught up by the dry army, and they implemented the wolf pack tactics against us, just like a real wolf pack to pounce on us in turn, that feeling will make you powerless!" I experienced it once when I was with Pi Lixian, and Pi Lixian was also defeated by this method of warfare, and we didn't even know what happened and lost directly! ”
"Only an hour after being caught up by the cadres, I lost 3,000 men, and I knew that if I stayed where I was any longer or marched slowly, I would definitely eat not even the dregs, so I ordered everyone to discard the cattle and sheep and all the burdens and rush back as quickly as possible!"
Tuhe Zhen and the ministers and generals were a little shocked when they saw Kuhehan's expression, they knew what kind of person Kuhehan was, this was a ruthless character, even he was scared like this by the cadres with this tactic, which shows how terrifying the cadres used the wolf tactics.
Tugazhen's uncle, the bald deer puppet, said worriedly: "I don't know what happened to Bendu and his 10,000 horses, he seems to be closer to the army!" ”
Kuhehan raised his head and looked at Tuhezhen and the other ministers and said, "The Khan and you don't have to wait, I dare to guarantee with my head that he will never come back, not only him, but also the 10,000 horses under his command will not come back!" ”
A chill ran through everyone's hearts.
At this moment, a centurion walked in quickly and reported: "Khan, the scout sent to the north to investigate is back!" ”
