Chapter 579: Ling Xia's Counterattack
When the rest of the war guards and rebel corps in the theater handed over, the Fifth and Tenth Corps also began to get nervous, Yu Qianqiong and Ying Qiankun personally went to the defense area to dispatch and command, although they kept choosing generals in the past few days, and wanted to restore the command system of the corps, but the time was too short, although the vacancies of many generals were filled, but the command system still could not be fully restored.
This is also something that can't be helped, if one or two generals are adjusted, it's okay to say, but this time more than 50,000 generals have been adjusted, which is a fatal trouble for the corps, not to mention that the soldiers don't know the new generals, even those generals who have just gone to the post are not familiar with each other, and there have been jokes about the corps commander going to the wrong camp on several occasions.
If you get acquainted with each other for a while, these generals may be able to get along. But at this juncture, the battle guards counterattacked the rebel corps, and the major corps all chose to face the frenzied attack of the war guards. At the same time, the various corps and the headquarters of the coalition army wrote letters to Yu Qianqiong and Ying Qiankun, asking them to attack Mohai Province immediately.
According to the idea of the rebels, with the advantage of the Fifth and Tenth Corps, even if Ling Xia led the Tenth War Guards to resist, but when the difference in strength was doubled, Mohai Province could hold out for five days at most, counting the need for a three-day delay on the way, Yu Qianqiong and they would be able to capture Mohai Province in eight days at most.
Although the idea is good, but the reaction of the fifth and tenth theaters is a little abnormal, two days have passed, the two major corps actually did not move at all, they have neither the intention of pulling out the camp and marching, nor the move to attack the city, no matter how the outside world urges, the fifth and twelfth corps just do not move, seeing this, the commanders of the rebel corps vaguely feel that something is wrong.
Although the rebel corps tried their best to conceal it, the paper did not catch fire after all, and on the third day of the battle guards' counterattack against the rebels, the news still leaked out, and the matter instantly swept the entire battlefield. Why did the 10th and 5th Corps stop advancing after they were stationed in Baobei County? Now it is finally understood that the command system of the two corps is paralyzed.
Just when the rebel corps learned that the 10th and 12th corps were raided by Ling Xia, which paralyzed the command system, so that the corps was stranded in the garrison of Baobei County, another news came out, Ling Xia led the Mohai Provincial City Defenders out of the city to attack the fifth and twelfth corps.
At this scale, this is at least the strength of a corps, and according to the speed of Ling Xia's march, it is expected to arrive at the garrison of the two major corps of the rebels in two days, after receiving this news, Yu Qianqiong and Ying Qiankun were not angry but happy, and Ying Sheji also sneered again and again, "Ling Xia wants to take advantage of the paralysis of our command system to catch us off guard, hum, it's a pity that he miscalculated." ”
After Yu Qianqiong, Ying Qiankun, and Ying Sheji discussed, they each sent three group armies to the front line to station and set up defenses, and they installed long-range attack troops such as catapults, siege crossbows, and archers on the front line, and put the main forces such as shield soldiers, cavalry, spearmen, giant hammer soldiers, and melee infantry on the front line.
Although the command system of the two corps has not yet been fully restored, it is generally operational. As long as Ling Xia's troops dared to come, Yu Qianqiong and Ying Qiankun would have the confidence to annihilate Ling Xia's soldiers and horses, but just when Yu Qianqiong and Ying Qiankun were preparing to fight with Ling Xia, suddenly, the two group armies of the Battle Guard Army appeared out of thin air twenty miles away from Zhubei County.
