2692 assault

General Staff of the State of Qin.

"These boys are so bold that they can come up with such an idea." Wang Jian said to Yang Duanhe.

"Use the limited supply of horse-drawn wagons to make supply depots, and then concentrate all the way, make a key breakthrough, deal with the trench tactics adopted by the Indians, as well as the fortress tactics, use commando operations, and have limited firepower. However, it is possible to form an effective suppression at one point. Yang Duanhe said.

"This is the greatest combination of our principle of employing troops, concentrating troops." Wang Jian said.

"Looks like they're doing a pretty good job of that." Wang Jian said.

"For this kind of almost, I think the probability of success is very high." Yang Duan analyzed.

"The Indians made the same mistake as us, they divided their forces evenly over the fortresses, and formed a passive defensive posture, and their forces were dispersed. In contrast, if the Yueshi people take a carriage offensive, their forces can be greatly concentrated, and after concentrating their forces, they can quickly break through the scattered fortresses, and their supplies can also be guaranteed all the way, and then after the breakthrough, they can continue to go deeper, or they can continue to outflank and eliminate all the opponent's heavy defense groups. Yang Duanhe said.

"Hmm. The point is in their assault force. First, they need a strong assault capability, and at the same time, they cannot give up limited firepower, but firepower and assault maneuverability cannot be coordinated with each other. Wang Jian said.

"To increase firepower is to sacrifice our mobility. However, light cavalry alone was not enough to complete such a blow, and it was difficult for them to break through the enemy's second and third lines of defense without heavy fire support. Wang Jian said worriedly.

"Are you worried that the Indians will build a defense-in-depth system after the first direction?" Yang Duanhe asked.

"Yes, if there is a second system, the situation of the Yue people will be troublesome. They can only destroy the opponent's extremely limited mobile forces, and it is difficult to take down heavily defended cities and the second line of defense. Wang Jian said worriedly.

"I think that the Indians don't seem to have such ability, first of all, they have a relatively wide defensive front, and they need to completely block the southward passage of the Yue's people, otherwise the Yue's people will outflank them a long time ago. Therefore, their forces are very limited, and they may not be aware of the construction of a second and third defense system in a short time. Yang Duanhe guessed.

In fact, Wang Qian's idea was cautious, while Yang Duanhe's idea was correct, because after the Indians suffered the first Yueshi southward attack, it was indeed difficult for them to build an extremely stable defensive line in a relatively short period of time. The worst thing is that because of the rush of time, they can only build the first line of defense, and their forces are relatively scattered and passive, which provides an opportunity for the Yueshi to attack.

"Coupled with the extremely scattered forces, therefore, the Yueshi people still have a great chance to attack, the only thing we have to worry about is that if the Yue's offensive ability is priced, first of all, will they destroy the opponent's defensive line, or form an offensive group based on firepower strikes?" Yang Duanhe said.

"If they increase their cavalry units, they will have to speed up their mobility, and they will have to attack in depth and sweep away the enemy's rear military and civilian targets, such as grain warehouses, and their defensive fortifications. roads, which pose a great threat to their defense groupings, cut off their logistical guarantee transport capacity. Weaken their group's defense capabilities. If the firepower is strengthened. Then strengthen their assault group capabilities, and after a roundabout, eat their defensive forces. And then push it further, and the price of doing so is: They were unable to carry out offensive operations in depth, and the consumption of supplies was extremely serious, because they fought a siege and annihilation war. If the Indians continue to strengthen their defenses, there is nothing we can do. Yang Duanhe said.

"Hmm. The crux of the matter is that we don't know much more about the depth of the enemy. Wang Jian said. Regarding Yang Duanhe's analysis, Wang Jian agrees very much.

First of all, if the Indians do not strengthen the defense in depth, they will carry out a deep assault to eliminate the civilian and military targets of the other side. Destroy the opponent's rear base target, in this case, the opponent's defense group will have no follow-up defense force, and after losing the rear target, they will naturally choose to retreat, because they have lost the logistics supply target. When the opponent retreats, mobile forces can carry out selective strikes.

"The mobile forces are mainly done by cavalry forces. However, the cavalry's firepower was very limited. Plus we don't know much about the rear of the Indians. Wang Jian said.

"At present, the only way, we have only one way, is to let the Yue people reorganize their cavalry force, and first, to reconnoiter the situation of the opponent's rear targets. Second, we attack each other's targets on the spot and bet on our ideas. Yang Duanhe said.

"Hmm. If necessary, we can use the assault corps to build a fortified point and drive a wedge. Completely disrupt the opponent's defensive line. Wang Jian said.

"yes, that's it." Yang Duanhe said.

"Hmm. Let Wang Ben and them formulate a good opportunity, prepare such weapons as much as possible in terms of logistics and supplies, and give them logistics materials as well. Wang Jian said.

"Sir, shall we also get involved?" At this time, Yang Duanhe suggested.

"We're involved too?" Wang Jian asked.

"Yes, we still have some cavalry units in our hands, we don't know how many cavalry troops the Yue people have, but they don't have a lot of troops, if we can strengthen their operations, it's okay. Moreover, fighting like this can strengthen the offensive power of the Yueshi people. After all, our cavalry was much better at attacking. Yang Duanhe said.

"Hmm. Well, but we can't use the name of the Qin army, if we rashly use the banner of the Qin army, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the Indians, and we may be in a disadvantageous position diplomatically. Wang Jian said worriedly.

"It's reassuring that we're engaging soldiers on a voluntary basis. In addition, our combat objectives are also the same as those of the Yue people, so it can be said that this is a very favorable situation for the Qin army. Yang Duanhe said.

"Well, just do it, and our cavalry units can also participate. Find out what about the Indians. That's it. Wang Jian ordered. Yang Duanhe nodded in agreement, he felt very excited.
