Chapter 243: Mobile Defense

Cadet?

It was the first time that Liu Chang heard a subordinate publicly praise a military cadet, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously: "Okay! When it's time to distribute, take care of your Rock Camp more! ”

You must know that for the sake of Shanye Military Academy, he has suffered a lot of complaints.

There is a shortage of cadres in the Hong Army, and Liu Chang has transferred nearly two hundred cadres in one go in order to form the Shanye Military Academy, so many cadres can form a reinforced battalion, not to mention, the graduates of the Shanye Military Academy, now Yijing has made it clear, and they are assigned as trainee platoon commanders.

This made everyone complain a lot, but Danshi Sun Beard is now full of praise for Shanye Military Academy: "Then we have to allocate more to our rock battalion, the quality of military cadets is indeed nothing to say!" ”

He didn't want to curry favor with Liu Chang, but was moved by the facts, this time the Shanye Military Academy was responsible for the security tasks of the two counties in the rear, and also carried out military teaching, and the result was that the instructor combined teaching with actual combat and took a perfect course.

The quality of the cadet made Sun Huzi really not speak, not only did he have amazing enthusiasm and courage, but also whether it was attacking, guarding or reassuring the people afterwards, it was remarkable, so that Sun Huzi couldn't find any fault.

Sun Huzi originally thought that his Rock Battalion Yijing was the leading elite army, but these military cadets, who had only been in the army for more than a month, felt that the Rock Battalion was too rough in many aspects, and more importantly, that group of administrative cadres.

The administrative cadres of these two companies are the objects of Liu Chang's key training, and now they have shown their potential, whether it is practical or propaganda, they are all materials that can be made, so Sun Huzi changed his past views on Shanye Military Academy, and decided to ask for a few more cadres Huilai and said: "Check, that's great!" ”

Liu Chang also asked about the performance of the Shanye Military Academy in this public security battle, and when he knew that the Shanye Military Academy had completed the combat mission perfectly, and that it was also quite successful in controlling people's hearts, he nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, in the future, the graduates of the military academy will take on a more important role, and now you don't rob the graduates of the military academy, you won't be able to grab them then!" ”

Everyone thought that Liu Chang was just joking, and Liu Chang asked about the performance of the second company of Jintang, and Sun Huzi also praised the performance of the second company of Jintang as a flower, no matter what, this is Liu Chang's guard unit: "Very good, the garrison task has been completed very well, check, I think it is the turn of the second company of Jintang to expand the establishment!" ”

Liu Chang humbly accepted Sun Huzi's suggestion: "That's right, it's Jintanglian's turn, they are responsible for staying in Panshi Village, delayed!" The infantry battalions should also be expanded! ”

Over there, Yun Tianzong asked: "Now that I am about to fight Zhang Yuliang, do you have this time?" ”

"Yes!" Liu Chang replied: "I hereby order ......"

All the officers immediately became serious, and the original joke also stood straight: "The Jintang Company left behind in Panshizhai has been expanded into the Jintang Battalion, and the Jintang Second Company has been expanded into the Jintang Second Battalion, all of which are organized by the C-type infantry battalion of the two-infantry company and one artillery platoon!" ”

Shi Tinglan immediately wrote down Liu Chang's order, although it is a type C infantry battalion, with only two infantry companies and an artillery platoon, but how can it also have the frame of an infantry battalion, and the Jintang Company system has been expanded into two infantry battalions, which can be regarded as a complete merit.

Liu Chang asked Zhu Dun and Huo Qiu: "Battalion Commander Zhu, Regiment Commander Huo, are you sure that you will expand an infantry battalion?" ”

"Yes!"

This is a very natural reply, so Liu Chang immediately issued the second order: "With the Dragon Lance Battalion as the backbone, expand the Jinhua Independent First Battalion, and use the Nanxi Battalion as the backbone to expand the Jinhua Independent Second Battalion, Sun Lixing, are you sure?" ”…,

The Panshi Camp does not have the same family background as the Dragon Lance Camp and the Nanxi Battalion, and Sun Huzi will not miss such an opportunity as Danshi: "No problem!" ”

"Good! With the Panshi Battalion as the backbone, expand the three independent battalions of Jinhua, and the above three infantry battalions are formed by each regiment and battalion, and are organized into three infantry companies and one artillery company. ”

For the Dragon Lance Battalion and the Nanxi Battalion, their family background is strong, especially the Dragon Lance Battalion, although they have just been separated from an independent battalion in Chuzhou, Danshi's family background is particularly strong, and it is only a day or two to form an independent battalion, although the Nanxi Regiment and the Nanxi Battalion are more difficult, the problem is not big.

However, although the Panshi Battalion has made some preparations, and Danshi wants to form an independent third battalion, so he has to get some support from the Dragon Lance Regiment, but everyone is happy to see it happen, and the troops have expanded, which is a great thing.

Yun Tianzong asked a question: "We are about to start a war with Zhang Yuliang, will there be a problem with us forming troops and adjusting the structure on such a large scale!" ”

"No problem!" Liu Chang replied to him: "We are not in a hurry, take our time, and then we must resolutely implement the tactics of high ditches and deep bases, take field combat and mobile defense as the core, enrich the troops, and strive to make the troops strong and strong!" ”

This answer was unexpected by Yun Tianzong: "Let's not solve Zhang Yuliang first?" ”

"Let them come to us first!" Liu Chang already has a comprehensive strategy: "Time is on our side!" ”

Time is on our side, Liu Chang Yijing has a comprehensive grasp, but Sun Huzi asked: "What if the Jiangnan battalion sends reinforcements again?" ”

"Almost! How many more can come? ”

This is indeed a true statement, for the Qing Dynasty, the number one enemy in front of them is the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the Danshi Qing Dynasty is within the entire territory, but at the same time it faces many hostile Liliang such as the Heaven and Earth Society, the Twist Army, and the Miao People's Army.

As a result, the Manchu Qing Dynasty's mobility was relatively limited, taking Zhejiang as an example, even if the situation was critical, it was only Jiangxi, Fujian, Anhui and Jiangsu each sent thousands of troops to help, but Jiangxi, Anhui and Jiangsu had been at war with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and under the situation that they could not protect themselves, they could not draw many reinforcements, and Zhejiang had no troops available.

In this case, he has enough money and food in his hand to support more than half a year, so he can naturally drag it out first, and wait for Zhang Yuliang and the Qing army to show their flaws, and then Huo Yijing over there thought clearly: "Yes, as long as the Qing Demon of Jinhua is solved before the autumn harvest, now let's hold the four counties at hand, and when Zhang Yuliang is defeated, the remaining six counties can be taken at any time!" ”

Yun Tianzong also understood: "Then how long will we keep it next?" ”

"First mobile defense for half a month, strive to be strong, and adjust the troops to the best state!"

Just have this sentence, after Rao Tingxuan this time, each infantry battalion and infantry company has its own family background, especially the prisoners and volunteers to join the army There are definitely a lot of recruits, resulting in each battalion and each company being in a state of overstaffing.

Therefore, in only two or three days, the 1st Independent Battalion and the 2nd Independent Battalion Yijing were formed, training and guarding in the same place, and at the same time liberating the main battalion, but it was a little difficult for the Panshi Battalion to form the third battalion, and in the end, it was the Dragon Lance Regiment that transferred a group of cadres, prisoners and guns to reluctantly set up a shelf.

It turned out that Liu Chang was based on the garrison, and soon the troops were not satisfied with mobile defense, but took on the garrison task with the newly formed independent battalion, and the main battalion and company began to adopt a small-scale cut-in offensive, often adopting the tactics of killing chickens with knives and knives, with a reinforced platoon as the vanguard to leap forward, followed by the entire infantry battalion.

Therefore, in this situation, the front began to press on the Jinhua side.

……

Under the yellow flags, there are teams of fierce soldiers, these soldiers are either people from Liangguang or Sichuan and Chu, and they belong to the real outlaws. …,

They experienced many offensive and defensive battles with the Taiping army near Nanjing, and they can be said to be the elite of the rest of their lives, but such fierce battles also made these soldiers look tired, so they touched their pockets from time to time.

This is Zhang Yuliang's 3,000 elite soldiers, this time near Jinhua Mansion, the soldiers are brave and the people are strong, known as 30,000 or 40,000 people, Danshi can really fight a hard battle team, that is, these 3,000 people.

Under a handsome flag, a general inspected his troops, and then scolded: "Brothers, you give me Zhang Bicheng to work hard, Lao Tzu can't treat you badly, but this time to fight the red thief, it is not better than fighting long hair, if you want to get rich, you can only work harder!" ”

He is Zhang Yuliang, the general of Wenzhou Town, the word wall city, among the more than 20 generals in the Jiangnan camp, he can be regarded as a rising generation who can fight.

The generals of the Jiangnan battalion are divided into two systems, either Xiang Rong's Sichuan general system, or Zhang Guoliang's Guangdong general system, and other characters can basically only be excluded, or driven out of the Jiangnan camp in the name of aid.

And Zhang Yuliang is a native of Sichuan, who has been friends with Xiang Rongzhi for many years, and fought with the Taiping army from Guangxi to outside Jinling City.

Danshi compared to the Ming Antai and other armies of the beautiful women gathered and rode with the army on horseback, and the people of Jiangsu and Zhejiang were stunned, Zhang Yuliang's army was quite combative and sharp, so Xiang Rongcai specially ordered him to help Zhejiang.

In the Jiangnan camp, he is considered the top figure of the second-rate generals, but there is still a distance from the top generals, which is similar to Rao Ting's position in Fujian, but the ones who stay behind must be the mainstays such as Zhang Guoliang, and the only ones who can lend to others are second-rate goods like Zhang Yuliang.

In the history of the late Qing Dynasty, only Zeng Guofan, a Hunan native, lent Cheng Xueqi, an Anhui man who was too high-grade to be cannon fodder in the Hunan army, to another Anhui person, Li Hongzhang, who regretted it later, saying that he was sorry for the old nine Zeng Guoquan and handed over Cheng Xueqi to Li Hongzhang.

But he didn't want to think about what Cheng Xueqi's treatment was when he was in the Hunan army, when he was fighting in Anqing, after fighting every day, the traitor Cheng Xueqi's team was not only not allowed to enter the camp to rest, but was driven out of the camp, and deliberately set up a few cannons aimed at Cheng Xueqi, ready to prevent this traitor from throwing himself into the Taiping army again.

But today Zhang Yuliang felt good about himself, he continued: "Brothers, I know that long hair is more oily and watery than the red thief, and the red thief's firearms are sharper, danshi, I have won a good errand for you, do you want to know what it is?" ”
