The contact between Wang Yue and the Ming army had been handed over to Liu Bin's Nanjing Jingying, so the contact between them was still the original way.

The number of telegraphs and walkie-talkies was sufficient, but Wang Yue did not plan to equip the Ming army, although the distance between them could be completely communicated by walkie-talkies.

It was only a temporary cooperative relationship with the Ming army, which was different from the Baoding army, which was already equipped with telegraphs and walkie-talkies.

Although the situation of the Liukou has changed, it is still in the area arranged by Wang Yue, and the southbound detachment is one of the fulcrums. As long as the Liukou can't break through this fulcrum, they will still be surrounded by the Ming army's outer line.

It is not accurate to say that it is encircled, the strength of the Ming army plus the Tiance army is only close to 60,000, and it is unrealistic to encircle 400,000 rogues within 800 square kilometers. Wang Yue arranged the location of the Ming army, which was only a traffic artery.

Zhang Xianzhong wanted to attack the southbound detachment of Chaling, and released a large number of scouts in advance, but unfortunately almost nothing, and the result was almost the same in the direction of Anqing.

The high-altitude drone of the Tiance Army keeps a close eye on the surrounding area at any time, and the rogue scouts can't escape its eyes, and the command headquarters notifies the reconnaissance troops in front of it at any time to strike mercilessly.

Almost all the armored vehicles were released, just to cut off the Liukou and detect the movements of the Tiance Army.

Zhang Xianzhong could not get accurate information about the Tiance Army, and could only know from the feedback from the blow suffered by the reconnaissance cavalry that the Tiance Army did not flee elsewhere because of his large-scale attack.

The speed of the Liukou's attack was slow, compared to Wang Yue's point of view and that of a snail.

Zhang Xianzhong can't help it, this attack can't be fast, because it's the hungry soldiers who play the striker. These hungry soldiers were men, women, and children, young and young, and they were very young and strong, and they were hungry and malnourished for a long time.

Starting from the whole team of Liukou, the distance to reach Chaling was 20 kilometers, that is, 40 miles, and according to the speed of Liukou's attack, Wang Yue estimated that it would take about five or six hours to walk.

The original plan was to attack the Liukou army against Anqing and Tiance. Now the Rogue has changed the direction of the attack. Tiance also changed its offensive deployment, and the southbound detachment shifted from offensive to on-the-spot defense to prevent the rogue from breaking through the outer encirclement. The 5th Regiment changed from defense to offense, and launched an attack on Liukou from the direction of Anqing.

The reconnaissance platoon was still the striker, and Zhan Peng led the four armored vehicles of the reconnaissance platoon to explore the way for the whole regiment.

Through high-altitude reconnaissance by drones, Hui Dengxiang, Luo Rucai, and Li Wanqing gathered 50,000 or 60,000 people to set up an ambush in Guijiachong, and the pictures transmitted back from the sky were unobstructed.

Therefore, the reconnaissance platoon stopped advancing after arriving at Guijiachong, observed the local terrain on the spot, and reported in detail to the regiment commander and commander.

Hui Dengxiang and the others received a report from their subordinates that the strange car of the Tiance Army was parked in front of the hill in Guijiachong, and the soldiers of the Tiance Army who got out of the car probed their brains at the ambush site and immediately came to check.

"Luo Shuai, could it be that these people have discovered us? Do you want to send someone to kill them? Whittenson said.

Luo Rucai's plucked phoenix is not as good as a chicken, although he still bears the name of deputy marshal, in fact, it is no longer worthy of his name.

As soon as he saw the appearance of the armored car, he gritted his teeth a little, and Luo Rucai said hatefully: "They haven't left for so long, it seems that they are exploring the terrain, and they must have discovered us." ”

"This car can't be stopped by manpower, so quickly send people to dig a hole on the road to prevent them from rushing over."

Hui Dengxiang was a little suspicious, but Luo Rucai had already turned around and let people dig a pit.

Li Wanqing also said: "According to the small ones, they have suffered a lot from this kind of car, so it is better to be careful, so as not to startle the snake." ”

Whittenson had no choice but to give up his plan to attack the reconnaissance platoon.

Although there were no tools to take advantage of, there was a lot of strength in numbers, and it was still raining lightly, so the ground was wet, and the rogues quickly dug a lot of big pits.

The rogues are no better than the elite troops, lacking discipline and training, and tens of thousands of people are ambushed here, and if you get close and pay attention, it is not difficult to spot them. The cover that the rogues rely on is that it is summer, and there are many grassy trees and jungles in the south.

But their main precaution was that the people on the ground found them, and several large birds hovering in the sky had seen them clearly.

"What are these guys doing? It's supposed to be digging a horse pit, right? Wang Yue stared at the display screen and said.

Inside the armored command vehicle, Feng Yuanshan said with a smile: "It seems that the rogues already know the power of the armored car. ”

Since joining the Tiance Army, Feng Yuanshan's spirit has become higher and higher, and this sense of superiority has been rising.

The generals of the Ming army marched on horseback, and the generals of the Tiance army had armored command vehicles. The generals of the Ming army commanded the troops with the command of the command banner, and the generals of the Tiance army used telegrams and walkie-talkies. The Ming army relied on scouts and scouts to explore the road ahead, but the Tiance army used drones as their own eyes.

Wang Yue frowned and said: "This is a bit troublesome, and the armored car will have to make a detour." ”

The armored vehicles of a regiment were twenty-four, the main purpose was reconnaissance and logistics, and in wartime they were used for assault. Together with the regiment commander's armored command vehicle, the total number was twenty-five, and this time the bandits did not carry tanks.

In order to deal with Zhang Xianzhong's hundreds of thousands of troops, 30 amphibious assault vehicles on the dock landing ship also followed the Fifth Regiment to the expedition.

Therefore, the number of armored vehicles going north reached 55, the strength of the Fifth Regiment was more than 1,500 people, and more than 100 people from the navy came to help in the battle.

Of course, the most conspicuous and sassy in the team is Wang Yue's special Golden Dragon RV.

The car was taller and larger than the armored car, and its red and white colors were more conspicuous. Although rubber tires tend to get stuck in the mud, with the help of armored vehicles, this is not a problem.

The armored command vehicle is more convenient to communicate with various troops, so during the war, Wang Yue always takes the armored command vehicle, and the Jinlong RV is just a mobile house.

Due to the limited number of vehicles, most of the Tiance army will rush to the battlefield twenty kilometers away on foot.

In order to fully maintain their physical strength before the battle, the soldiers had to take turns to get on the car and rest, so all the armored vehicles had quite a few soldiers sitting on top of them.

The pit was almost dug up, and what Hui Dengxiang, Luo Rucai and the others saw on the hill was such a strange army, coming with a rumbling roar.

Luo Rucai said puzzledly: "It's strange, why doesn't this Tiance army have a horse?" ”

Because of the southward detachment of the Tiance Army, his first impression should be that there are many war horses.

Whitden smiled and said, "It's better without cavalry, it looks like there are less than two thousand people, and we will definitely make it difficult for them to fly." ”

Of course, he was full of confidence, and with nearly 60,000 troops, he ambushed less than 2,000 officers and soldiers, and the difficulty coefficient was too small.
