Chapter 237: Infantry VS Cavalry

After listening to Xu Hanting's words, Ma Bufang's eyes suddenly lit up, but then they dimmed again, and said worriedly:

"Han Ting, don't you look at how many people we have? In the hands of the surnamed Wei, there are 90,000 people! What about us? Barely a third of the family! How will this battle be fought? ”

Xu Hanting smiled slightly:

"Shizuo, don't forget, Wei Yang has all the infantry in his hands, and we are cavalry, as long as we join forces with Gansu and Ningxia, a total of 30,000 people will be enough."

Ma Bufang nodded thoughtfully:

"But in that case, the gold ......"

Xu Hanting hurriedly said:

"Shizuo rest assured, as long as we can defeat the surnamed Wei in the first battle, we will immediately send someone to negotiate, the so-called strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, even if he fails to let the surnamed Wei hurt his muscles and bones, he will honestly use gold to buy a peace."

Xu Hanting shook his head and paced two steps in place, and then said:

"Of course, this first gold, we can't swallow it alone, we have to divide it equally among the three families, but don't forget, the surname Wei is on our territory, even if it is a hotel, we have to give money, right?"

After speaking, he and Ma Bufang looked at each other for a long time and laughed in unison.

Inside Wei Yang's tent, all the officers above the regimental level were having a meeting.

The four people standing at the front are:

Li Nian, commander of the First Army, Qian Zhengsen, commander of the Second Army, Zheng Xiaohan, commander of the Third Army, and Ding Kang, commander of the Fourth Army.

Wei Yang stood in front of the sand table, his brows furrowed.

Originally, he had no plan to come to Qinghai, but now he had to make a new plan.

Even if he wanted to leave for the grassland immediately, the "three horses" would definitely not let him go.

Wei Yang could conclude that Lao Jiang's order must have been placed on the table of the three of them.

After a while, Wei Yang raised his head and looked at the four army commanders standing in front of him and said:

"Tell me what you think."

After the four of them glanced at each other, Zheng Xiaohan took the lead and said:

"Commander, in my opinion, we should have a trick with these 'three horses', first, to let Lao Jiang understand that now he can't help us, and secondly, to teach these three 'wall grasses' a lesson, let them clamp their tails!"

After listening to this, Wei Yang looked at Zheng Xiaohan with interest and said:

"Oh? Is there a detailed plan? ”

What Zheng Xiaohan said was exactly what Wei Yang thought in his heart.

These "three horses" have been entrenched in the northwest for many years, but they have not been able to improve the living conditions of the local people, and they only think about expanding the ranks and forcibly collect money and grain from the people.

From the moment he decided to change course, these three people had already become Wei Yang's target.

But at the same time, Wei Yang also knew that most of the cavalry under the command of the "three horses" were cavalry, and for the infantry, they were natural enemies.

Although he had forty M1 mountain guns in his hands, once the cavalry rushed, the shells could not achieve the effect of fighting a positional battle with the infantry.

Besides, the hour of the bombing had already consumed two-thirds of the number of shells carried, and if you couldn't carry out accurate and effective strikes, once the shells were finished, you would be passive.

Now that Zheng Xiaohan said this, Wei Yang wanted to hear his thoughts.

Zheng Xiaohan was obviously prepared, and as soon as Wei Yang's voice fell, he continued:

"Infantry vs. cavalry, since ancient times, there are many defeats and few victories, but now is no longer the era of cold weapons, for the mobility of the cavalry, artillery coverage can not achieve a good effect, and after the infantry cavalry enters the firing range, there is only a short shooting time, a short distance of five or six hundred meters, the cavalry is instantaneous."

Zheng Xiaohan said a lot, all of them were foreshadowing, if it was according to Wei Yang's character, he would have let him dry it up a long time ago.

But now that Zheng Xiaohan is the commander of an army after all, Wei Yang can't lose his face, so he can only listen patiently.

But fortunately, Zheng Xiaohan didn't continue to talk nonsense, and after saying a few words, he got to the point:

"Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty Liu Yu once set up a moon formation, with thousands of people to break the Wei army of 30,000 cavalry, although we can't follow suit, but we can still rely on water."

Wei Yang seemed to hear a little bit of the doorway, and raised his head to look at Zheng Xiaohan.

Zheng Xiaohan didn't notice that Wei Yang was looking at him, and continued:

"We can lean on the side of Qinghai Lake, with one army in the center, and the other three armies to resist the enemy on three sides, and dig a horse trap one kilometer before the formation to set up a tripping horse."

As soon as he said this, the officers behind him all laughed.

However, Zheng Xiaohan didn't care, and continued to take care of himself:

"Of course, these will not have a great effect, the purpose is only to confuse the enemy, and after they pass, immediately cover the artillery fire at a small angle to create their panic, and at the same time concentrate all the machine guns, and quickly attack from both flanks, not hitting people, only horses, and will definitely be able to break the opponent's first attack!"

After listening to this, Wei Yang was not particularly satisfied, and asked with a smile:

"Zheng Xiaohan, are you sure?"

Zheng Xiaohan nodded confidently:

"Commander, I'm sure! The enemy's first attack will be a temptation, and he will never do his best, and in my judgment it will not exceed five thousand, so this battle will be won! ”

Wei Yang nodded, turned his face to look at the others and said:

"Which of you disagrees?"

The crowd looked at each other, but no one spoke.

Although Zheng Xiaohan's words were categorical, Wei Yang was still a little worried in his heart.

After all, he knew in his heart that in the future battle to encircle and suppress the Red Party, this Ma Bufang almost wiped out the entire Western Route Army, and the town pocket should not be underestimated.

But at the moment, there is no better way than to try it according to Zheng Xiaohan's method.

However, Wei Yang was not accustomed to being passive by nature, and after everyone left, he immediately called Yang Qianqi and Ilyushenkov, gave them a sum of money, and asked them to immediately set off to buy horses.

Although the cavalry could not be trained in a short period of time, this incident reminded Wei Yang that a cavalry must be formed!

Wei Yang is preparing, and Ma Bufang, Ma Hongbin, and Ma Hongkui are also preparing.

As Zheng Xiaohan guessed, they planned to test the water with 3,000 people first.

Now, although the three of them together can make up an army of 100,000 people, the total number of cavalry is more than 30,000.

After all, it is not easy to train war horses, and if they really lose a lot, it will directly affect the strength of the three of them, and they are also worried that they will be taken advantage of.

After much discussion, the three of them set off twenty days later, and a total of 30,000 people rushed in the direction of Weiyang.

10,000 cavalry, 20,000 infantry.

After Wei Yang received the news, he immediately sent Zheng Xiaohan with his third army to meet the enemy.

After the distance between the two sides entered twenty kilometers, Ma Bufang immediately sent a reconnaissance team to check the movements of Wei Yang's army, but until the distance was shortened to ten kilometers, there was no movement.

After a few discussions with the other two, he ordered the team to stop.

Getting closer and entering the range of artillery fire, they didn't want to taste Wei Yang's shells for themselves.
