Chapter 247: The defense is very tight
But Mo Yu knew that there was no need to refute in a hurry when he spoke, because sometimes people just talked about this rumor, and there might be a supplement later.
Sure enough, An Xinbi continued: "But I think this sentence is a bit outrageous, one thing is true, that is, the observation station at the forefront at that time, you know that observation station, right?" ”
Mo Yu nodded and said, "I know that I was there at the time, a very well-defended hill." ”
Mo Yu has really seen that small hill, and he has also observed it inside, and he has also seen it well, all the facilities are readily available, water and food, and protective measures, and even doctors, cooks, and some long-term workers, these are all available.
Although there are only 1,000 to 2,000 personnel, there are actually many people who can fight.
The number can reach about 700 to 800, of course, it is not fixed, different armies are on duty in turn, and a real combat drill is carried out at a fixed time.
When the time came, he really packed up the pots and pans and ran away, this is an aspect of acting, Mo Yu has also seen it, and the speed of running away is very fast.
It didn't take much effort to run fast, and Mo Yu was still a little surprised at that time, is this the legendary military exercise? Isn't this just practicing escaping?
Of course, there are many reasons for this, when Wang Yuanfu ordered those troops to flee, it was to reduce some losses, after all, that small hill is like a small island in the sea, ethereal and uncertain when it will be killed by others.
Instead of that, why don't you row and run?
Do you have to wait for the sharks to come and bite you?
This practice is very in place, or it is a very correct approach.
When I first practiced, I really took away all the mess of pots and pans and horses, and there was almost nothing except for those who couldn't take it away.
The speed of action is also very fast, as can be seen from Wang Yuanfu's order,
After receiving a signal from a city, he immediately began to retreat, and the time before and after was only empty, much shorter than empty.
This kind of military practice is necessary, even more so than that of a combat military exercise.
In fact, those military exercises that are based on combat are nothing more than consideration of the mobility of the army and the degree of execution of orders, and it is basically not easy to appear if the two armies are really handed over, or this kind of exercise is not easy to achieve.
In most cases, it is still considered that the mobility and the speed of the execution of the order are considered, and when the speed of the execution of the order arrives, it means that the military exercise is a very successful military exercise.
Since it is such a thing as acting, it means that it doesn't matter whether it is advancing or retreating, whether it is fighting or retreating, as long as it can achieve such an effect.
What can be inferred from this is that Beidacheng should have practiced a large-scale retreat for a long time, such as the retreat of the personnel of the entire city of Beidacheng, but it seems that the degree of secrecy is still very high.
Mo Yu didn't know much about such a situation.
An Xinbi nodded: "The forward observation exercise was evacuated on a large scale, and the signal received by the soldiers at that time was thought to be just a temporary exercise, but the order of the superior commander was to take everything that could be taken away!" ”
When An Xinbi said such words, Mo Yu also understood the meaning of some of An Xinbi's words a little, and this tone was very heavy in the end.
Take everything you can with you, it means that there is probably some danger, or some unknown threat, and such a situation is obviously very likely.
What I just said about taking away everything that can be taken away is the things on the surface, that is, pots and pans, and some living things that can move.
But An Xinbi's tone of words just now is a bit heavy, and the meaning of what he said just now is actually that some things that don't need to be dismantled are things that don't need to be dismantled during ordinary exercises, but if you really encounter some situations, these things can be dismantled and taken away.
Taking these things away is a little different from the exercise just now, although the two can take as much as possible to take away as much as possible, but when the situation is different, there will be subtle differences between the two.
To give you an example, if there is a foggy weather on that day, the opposing army does not see any trace of the opposing army when it marches from a distance.
But when I saw the other party's traces, it seemed that it was a little late at this time, and there was no way to report to Beidacheng, and even if I could report to Beidacheng, there was no way to send an effective receipt message.
At this time, the commander must give the next order to all advance lightly, provided that there is no fight with the other party, if the other party really sneaks over, and it is still cavalry, I can basically only fight to the death.
There are certainly not many forward observation post cavalry, and there are already a lot of horses that can be equipped with one or two hundred horses, and a large part of them are still used to pull carriages to load heavy loads, and there is no need to say more about the beasts.
If you really face such a situation, then you don't need to run directly, you can kill as much as you can kill the other party, what a long worker, a cook, you must copy up the weapon in your hand that can be permanent, you have to rely on this time and place to fight with the other party.
And let go of wolf smoke, or send a small cavalry communication corps, report to Beidacheng, and see if you can hold out until the arrival of reinforcements from Beidacheng.
But if the fog isn't particularly heavy, and the more advanced observation posts have spotted each other and released wolf smoke for the forward observation posts to react.
Then at this time, it must be to run as fast as you can, and at this time, you don't need to bring anything at all, human life is the most important thing in Beidacheng.
It seems that there are only seven or eight hundred people who can fight, but if these seven or eight hundred people who can fight are applied to the city, there is no problem in resisting the attack of thousands of people on the other side for a few days, and the premise is that the will to fight must be strong.
So those pots and pans and all that mess doesn't need to be the most important thing at all.
At that time, for example, although the drill is conducted according to the most realistic situation, it also depends on the situation, and it does not mean that the things brought are really exactly the same.
No, many cases can have different outcomes.
The result that An Xinbi said was the most real result, the most advanced observation post discovered the movement of the soldiers at the mouth of the hippo, that is, the observation post with a tower pillar, and there were only a few soldiers on it.
The news was quickly brought to the forward observation post, which was the small hill, which quickly sent cavalry to report to the northern city, and sent a certain number of communication troops and nearby scout cavalry to linger in front of the small hill.
Of course, Mo Yu definitely didn't know about this situation, but as long as someone who was familiar with some military tactics was able to come up with such a situation.
I am afraid that the other party will send a small force to hide and make a surprise attack, so at this time, we must send a certain number of scouts between the forward observation post and the forward observation post, a group of three scouts.
In addition, the distance between the Scout and the Scout should be within a certain range, so that the other team of Scouts can receive information at any time, but it will not affect the other team of Scouts because one team of Scouts is damaged.
In terms of range, there should be a knee-jerk reaction through long-term training, and at least ten squads must be dispatched, otherwise they will not be able to hold a lot of directions.
If the opponent wants to send a small army to attack, there are only two ways to deal with such scouts, the first is to bypass these small groups of scouts, or they can go through and continue to lurk.
The second option is to do it at the same time and kill all the dozens of scouts without them reacting!
Either of these two methods is very difficult, first of all, there is a certain distance between the two teams of scouts, but they can see each other's traces, since even the other party's traces can be seen, then even in the summer, when the grass and trees are abundant, some small troops cannot pass through the middle.
Although it is a small army, it is also relative to a large army, if you want to surprise the forward observation post, the number must be about 1,000 to 2,000, and the dozens of troops may not have much to do with it, because the grass and trees are indeed abundant in summer, and these grasses grow relatively high.
But it is difficult, if not impossible, to allow a thousand to two thousand armies to pass through them.
Then the second method is to shoot all these people, the easiest way is to use some archers or crossbowmen, slowly lurking around them, and all of them are killed with one order.
There is a big problem with such a method, first of all, it is a problem that lurks in the past, and it is not easy to ensure that the ten teams do not find out to the small scout teams that even say that there are more than ten teams.
The second problem is that it is impossible to guarantee that their crosshair can be fatal with one hit, and the distance must be about 20 meters.
If you come in again, you will almost find that this should be a very extreme distance, because there were not only people but also horses at that time.
Horses are very sensitive to the sounds made by things next to them, and twenty meters is a very extreme distance.
At this distance, you can only shoot two parts in order to produce a lethal hit, the first in the head and the second in the chest, if the scouts of these squads are really all facing their direction.
There may still be a slight chance, but their position is not so normal, and the three teams are in three different directions in training, which is the three-person formation.
If these people can really get close to each other by taking another 10,000 steps, those archers are also lurking in different directions, right facing them.
There are not many people who can kill with one hit at a distance of twenty meters, and this kind of archer is basically a marksman, or a crossbowman.
The number will not be particularly large, and more than 30 people are nonsense, it is very likely that there are these numbers, but if you want to bet on the number of these elites in a military operation, I believe that as long as the commander does not encounter a very extreme situation, he will definitely not do this.
There are also soldiers from the polar countries, and their equipment is very good.
