Chapter 357: Blowing up the bridge and blowing up the river
The Wonju Ya of Uiju has now been changed to the headquarters of the Northern Army of the Dengju Army.
"Long Wu, why didn't Manchu react?" Chen Ming and Long Dulu were discussing military affairs in the headquarters.
After launching several attacks on the Manchurians, they were quietly waiting for the enemy's reaction. However, I didn't expect that half a month had passed, and Tanma still hadn't reported any news from the Manchurian army.
"How do I know? Lao Tzu is not their master! These dog things, if they want to die, they don't come quickly. Lao Tzu still wants to spend the New Year here happily after the fight. "Long Dulu was also a little impatient.
According to the military order given to them by Wang Rui before his departure, he must fight a few battles with Manchu happily, and after the two sides have reached a border balance, they can start the strategy of attacking in Chaoxian.
Now that more than 10,000 people have been here for several months, they have only occupied a few small cities, and the process of completing the task seems to be a little slow.
"Could it be that these captives are too scared to come when they hear that our Dengzhou army is coming?" Chen Ming said proudly.
"Not yet. The Manchu devils who fought with us may not know that we are the Dengzhou Army. However, the head of Shenyang must have known. In addition to our Dengzhou army, which other Ming army can achieve such a record? Think about it on your toes. Long Dulu felt that Manchu must have been able to guess that the Dengzhou army had arrived in Liaodong.
"But then again. I wish they would treat us as the Dongjiang Army! If the previous Manchu devils hadn't mistaken us for the Dongjiang Army, they would have been so ignorant and rushed towards our guns like moths to fire. ”
After thinking about it for a period of time, Long Dulu came to a conclusion: The Dengzhou Army was able to fight so perfectly in the previous battles because of information asymmetry.
From the leaders to the soldiers, the Manchu devils thought that it was the Dongjiang Army that was on the side. They believed that the Dongjiang Army did not have the strength to fight them head-on, so they adopted those tactics of not dodging or dodging, and sparing their lives.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with these Manchu thoughts. When they encountered the Dongjiang Army in the past, as soon as the cavalry brigade was dispatched, the Dongjiang Army had to disperse immediately. The Zhushen warriors only need to chase after them and slash them all.
However, now that it has been replaced by the Dengzhou Army, which is strong in combat and has sharp weapons, the previous effective tactics are equivalent to stupid comparisons in the eyes of the Dengzhou Army officers and soldiers such as Long Duanyu and Chen Ming.
"I think these captives are scared! What Jurchen is full of captives and invincible! I really don't know where this came from. Long Wu, you don't know, when he went north to King Qin, more than 100,000 people gathered together, and the adults also rushed up directly with the army! Lao Tzu is not afraid to come when he sees these cowards."
Chen Ming was unimpressed by Manchu's combat power. His mentality is very representative of a large part of the Dengzhou army, especially those veterans who participated in the battle of Jingshi Qinwang.
Because they saw with their own eyes the scene of the captives being blown up and flying with stumps flying under the bombardment of the Dengzhou army, screaming and wailing. They personally pulled the trigger and beat the murderous and ugly captives to the ground.
They have a condescending mentality from above, and they have the confidence that they will win. Perhaps, this is the posture of a strong army!
"Chief Officer Long, Chief Officer Chen! Two dogs ask to see! While the two were discussing, a pro-guard came in to report that the second dog, who was in charge of the military intelligence detective, had returned.
"Quick, call him in!" Chen Ming stood up suddenly.
"Ergouzi, is there any good news?" As soon as the second dog came in, his mouth was still full of white gas, and Long Duan asked eagerly.
"Two chiefs, can you let me drink saliva first?" The second dog quipped.
"Come, come! Lao Tzu will pour it for you personally! Do you still want tea foam? Long Dulu stood up, walked to the stove, and poured a cup of hot water for the two dogs.
"You don't have to make tea. If you really want to make tea and drink it slowly, you will have to beat me to death. Ergouzi took the water cup, held it in his hand and took a sip carefully.
"The Manchu army is coming, but it is still forty or fifty miles away from the Yalu River. There must be forty or fifty thousand people, and there must be all kinds of flags. It seems that it is another Eight Banners Alliance! ”
"Our sentry found it by the Dayang River, when Man Lu was crossing the river on the front line of the Dragon King Temple. Among the 40,000 or 50,000 captives, more than half of them were Han people who served as clothed slaves, and there were more than 20,000 real captive soldiers. Ergou explained the situation to the two chief officers in detail.
"Blow up the bridge and blow up the river! The ice of this Yalu River is not thick, let's blow up the bridge first, and then destroy the ice, and the devils will have to look at the river and sigh! Li Keqiang, the instructor who had been unable to talk to him, interjected excitedly.
"Fuck off! When discussing military affairs, you instructors have no say! Chen Ming glared at Li Dazui unceremoniously.
"I, I'm also a suggestion." Li Keqiang was yelled at by Chen Ming, and his square face was suddenly squeezed into a "sigh".
"Instructor Li, you better manage the ideological mobilization of the soldiers!" The dragon hurriedly pushed him out, and counted him as a step down.
Nima, Chen Ming's temperament is too great! It's like eating gunpowder.
"Lao Tzu can't wait for the captives to attack the city! He also had a bad idea to blow up the bridge and the river, can Lao Tzu not be in a hurry with him. Li Dazui left, and Chen Ming was still angry.
This Li Dazui can fight for three points unreasonably, in Chen Ming's opinion, he is boastful, he has no ability, I really don't know how he got into the Discipline Division.
"This bridge and the river must not be blown up! As soon as it is fried, it seems that we are afraid of it! As if they were afraid of their attack. Evacuate the sentry across the river and scatter it upstream! If you dare to cross the river, attack now! ”
"Let's set a rule for these captives first, if they dare to cross the Yalu River and come over standing, they have to lie down. When the northern part of Chao Xian is stabilized, let's clean up these crazy savage tartars. Long Dulu expressed his opinion.
"Why don't we cross the river to meet the enemy? Don't adults often say, 'Kill the enemy outside the borders?'" If we dispatch six or seven thousand people, we can definitely fight against the more than 20,000 soldiers who are captive! "Chen Ming wants to take the initiative.
"Chen Laosi, are you stunned? In the field, we may not necessarily lose, but there will definitely be casualties. This kind of loss-making business, Lao Tzu will not do it! Lao Tzu is waiting for the captives to attack! If you want to talk about defending the city, let's Dengzhou Army say second, and no one in the world says it's first. ”
"What if the captives don't attack?" Chen Ming asked again.
"It seems that you kid should also stay with adults for a few years, and you can learn some of the big picture!" The dragon was triumphant.
"There's fart, there's something to say! What is there to show in front of Lao Tzu. In the past, before crossing the sea in Liaodong, your kid was still in Lao Tzu's team. Chen Ming saw him show off in front of him, and he was angry in his heart.
"Hehe, you can wait with confidence! The captives have come all the way over, and they will definitely take the initiative to attack. You should be our Dengzhou Army, and you can't come to practice or something. If they don't attack, they'll run away in vain! Long Dulu carefully analyzed.
"Then blow up the bridge and the river! Show the enemy weak. Chen Ming answered.
He suddenly felt that Li Keqiang's bad idea had some truth. Of course, it should be used the other way around.
