Chapter 133: The decisive battle is a useless battle
After borrowing more than 20,000 reinforcements, Liang Hu immediately ordered Zhao Yun to lead them to reinforce the battlefield on the northern front. At this time, the battlefield on the northern front was unstable because it had just suffered a defeat. Suning had no choice but to abandon the military base in the rear and lead all the soldiers and horses that were about to run out of food and grass to join the main force. First, it can temporarily fill the gap in troops caused by the recent defeat, and second, it can also use the strength of the main force to cover the grain and grass battalion.
It's just that the drawbacks of doing so are also obvious. The enemy's surprise attack on the grain and grass battalion was greatly shortened, and the main force had to separate more forces to be responsible for the flank cover of the grain and grass battalion, which limited the total number of troops in the grain and grass battalion.
In this way, the strategy that Huang Fusong was able to adopt became more conservative. Hopes of further victories have also become more slim. So after Suning's rear troops arrived at the battlefield, the morale of the natural army has rebounded slightly, but all the generals know that such a rebound is only a short-term effect, in the long run, because it is unlikely to win on the battlefield, the morale and morale of the army will also fall sharply, when the time comes, I hope that these things will not appear large-scale rout, otherwise, the entire Liangzhou will fall into a dangerous situation.
Just when this pessimistic mood was spreading among the middle and high-ranking commanders, a piece of news came that immediately lifted their hearts. Zhao Yunqin led an army of 20,000 people to Beidi County day and night.
At that time, there may be a qualitative change in the ratio of forces between the two sides. The number of troops of the Han army will be close to 100,000 at that time, and the number of Xianbei cavalry is decreasing at different levels every day.
The reason for this change is mainly because they were stimulated by looting. For the Xianbei cavalry, gaining wealth through raiding is the best motivation for them to give up the war, and for them, the discipline and strategy of the war do not seem to matter, they only care about the brave killing, and then get the wealth that should belong to them, this is their philosophy of war.
The philosophy of agrarian civilization, on the other hand, requires that soldiers fail to follow strategy and discipline, and then follow the so-called formations and calculations to achieve the final victory.
But what do they have to gain, without the pleasure of plundering and killing, without the reward of abundant wealth, they do not have enough motivation to participate in the war.
Every agrarian civilization had similar drawbacks in terms of warfare, and although they continued to develop and improve the military mobilization mechanism, and constantly inculcated the concept of defending the country in their minds, they were still unable to achieve a clear advantage on the battlefield in the face of backwardness in terms of expansion desire and industrial development.
If, if the opponent's will to fight begins to decline. Military discipline became distracted and unable to plan and organize effective large-scale operations. Then their hope of victory is slowly emerging.
Military discipline is the only advantage of agrarian civilization, and if it cannot rely on this to gain an advantage in layout, then the final result can only be defeat.
If it is said that the generals of the Central Plains who are superstitious about the study of the weft, they may be affected by some inexplicable religious factors in the arrangement of troops. Then with this armed force in the seat of Suning, there will definitely be no similar situation.
Although the Soviet Union's military capabilities were simply not capable of commanding campaign-level military operations, when he heard a few of Huangfu Song's advisers gossiping, he led the Qing soldiers to rush in and beat them up without saying a word, and then threw them out of the barracks and left them to fend for themselves.
When Huangfu Song saw this scene, he was immediately furious. However, Suning only used one sentence to make Huangfu Song obediently hand over his command.
The reason for the defeat in the last battle was because Huangfu Song listened to the advice of these strategists, and the reason why she Suning won the victory was because the strategists under her command would not believe these prophecies at all.
Although Huangfu Song was born in a famous family, he has always been cautious and skeptical about the study of Weiwei. So his statement to Suning is not unacceptable, but for Suning's behavior, he has secretly stored a problem in his heart.
However, this situation did not affect the whole situation of the duel between the two sides, and after the 20,000 troops led by Zhao Yun arrived at the front line, Suning immediately recruited Yang Dayan and others into the big tent of the Chinese army, and planned a rather careful assault operation.
On the evening of October 26, Suning led the main force of the Xianbei tribe camp opposite Yang Gong, and launched a roundabout Yang Dayan and others in advance. Lead the command to attack from the other side. The flames of war soon lit up the moonless night sky. However, the results achieved by the Han army were far less brilliant than they seemed.
The specific problem needs to be put away from Suning's unexpectedly breaking through the enemy's frontal defense line. Suning and the others naturally deliberately carried out military deployments with great fanfare, which attracted the attention of many Xianbei people, and they also knew that their ancestors would be fully prepared this time, so when their attack was blocked, Suning's subordinates exerted great combat effectiveness without saying a word. But what they didn't expect was. With just one charge, they exposed a huge flaw to the enemy in front of them, so they continued their efforts and even repelled the enemy's carefully arranged frontal defense line in one go, much to the surprise of all commanders, including Suning. Suning was even wondering if the enemy had seen through his conspiracy and deliberately sent a garrison army that was not very strong in combat effectiveness to secretly deploy the real main force here somewhere else, and was quietly waiting for Yang Dayan and the others to send it to the door by themselves.
With such a worry, Suning led all his subordinates to move closer to the direction of Yang Dayan's attack as quickly as possible, he didn't want any mistakes in this plan, so this attack was quite fierce, and he repeatedly emphasized that there were no prisoners in this battle, so every Xianbei person he encountered turned into a corpse in the end.
But they were advancing at high speed but unexpectedly encountered another thing, the progress of Yang Dayan on the opposite side was also quite fast, just when they thought that Yang Dayan had encountered an ambush, Yang Dayan's troops suddenly appeared in front of them, because the incident happened relatively suddenly, the two sides almost fought because of a misunderstanding. Fortunately, there were quite a few people who knew each other well among the generals on both sides, which avoided an unnecessary casualty. However, the next doubt enveloped everyone present, those new cavalry recruits? Why is there only more than 10,000 people stationed in one camp of Nuoda, and where are the remaining 50,000 or 60,000 people gone?
