2728 Hob Plan

Yue, the Hindi front, the 1st and 2nd Corps were stationed in a position thirty miles behind the rear. Fort of the Mountains. This is the headquarters of the Yueshi Assault Combat Group, which consists of two corps. Because the number of the two legions in the assault battle exceeded 40,000, the strength was extremely strong. Moreover, the hoarding of materials is very large, in order to prevent such a war from causing great losses or for better command, the Yueshi people have formed an assault battle group.

"Our forces are ready. Just waiting for the arrival of the 11th and 12th regiments of your Qin people. "The commander of the Yueshi this time is Admiral Moran. He turned out to be a senior tribal leader of the Eastern Tribal Alliance, and because of his boldness and ruthlessness, he attacked the Indians several times with a small number of troops. After the Yueshi people formed the Yueshi coalition government. He was promoted to general and was a very capable general.

"General, they are heading south, and it won't be long before we can launch a large-scale offensive operation." Major General Meng Ping of the Qin Army said with a smile. He was an advisor sent by the Qin State and the commander of the Qin army's combat units, but he also served as the commander of the front, and the command of the repulsion was someone else.

"Very well, we are very well prepared. The assault would have more than 30,000 troops, four cavalry regiments, four infantry regiments, and a reinforced artillery regiment, in addition to many more troops, and it was a grandiose, great battle plan. Admiral Moran said with some excitement. Because it has not yet been possible to command such a large number of troops to participate in the battle. This time they will gain a lot, Moran feels that in this battle, he may be promoted to the rank of general, the Yueshi people have the rank of general, marshal, but no one has awarded such a rank, thinking that military merit is great.

"Yes, Your Excellency General, according to this battle plan, we will have to rotate at most two hundred miles deep into the opponent's depth. Then sweep through the rear of the other side and deal a more brutal blow to the other side, but I think we should capture more prisoners of war. It is unlikely that we will be able to break through the opponent's defense line at once, and this defense line can only completely obtain the huge physiology by constantly weakening the opponent's logistical supply capacity. Meng Ping said.

"Hmm." Admiral Moran nodded in agreement.

"According to our front-line reconnaissance reports, the Indians have been strengthening their defensive lines, gathering more than 200,000 troops, such a huge force, which is a great threat to us, but their ability to maneuver. and weak firepower. The Indians don't have muskets, they only have very weak cold weapons, but they are huge, and we only have to consume them little by little, and when they are almost consumed, we can carry out encirclement and annihilation operations, and our forces are not yet able to do this. Meng Ping said.

This is the plan of the Qin State General Staff, and it is also the plan of Wang Ben, they are well aware of the situation on the front line, and the telegram can keep the commander informed of the latest situation, although the Yueshi are well-equipped, they are not enough in number, and they are too insignificant compared to the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Indians. And the other side likes to gather forces to fight. No matter how well equipped they are, they cannot compensate for their numerical inferiority.

"General, according to the habits of our Qin people, such a battle plan should have a nice name, please give the general a name." Meng Ping said.

"Hmm." Admiral Moran nodded. In order to respect the Yueshi people, the battle plan has not been named.

"Hmm. In my opinion, it is called hob, and our main purpose is to weaken the enemy, and hob can do this. Admiral Moran thought for a moment, and he decided that it would be better to use the weapon he was familiar with as the name of the plan.

"Good name." Meng Ping nodded and said. According to his understanding, this is an offensive weapon of the Yueshi people, mainly used in the cavalry, in order to better combat the opponent's cavalry shaping, the Yueshi people will use some log pillars with a lot of blades inserted on them, these blades will cause a lot of confusion to the opponent's formation under the drag of the cavalry, this is how the hob came from, even now, the Yue's cavalry troops still use such weapons, good weapons will never be outdated.

Admiral Moran smiled silently. This is his favorite weapon.

Inside the Seventh Regiment of the Yue's Clan.

"Sir, so many grenades. Give it all to us? A group of commandos shouted excitedly around the ammunition supply wagon. It was full of ammunition, pistol bullets, grenades. The Yue's commandos are most fond of hand grenades, and they have an obsessive hobby of grenades when they confiscate Indian settlements. The Indians would hide and not come out, and they would often brutally take out a grenade and throw it in and blow it up. However, because of the small number of them, they could only play with cannonballs, and now they have grenades, and they are very happy.

"Hey, look at what kind of grenade this is. It turned out to be white. At this moment, a corporal of the Yue clan seemed to have found some treasure, and suddenly picked up a grenade, which was a white grenade. Some of the instructions above are written in the Qin script. However, he couldn't understand it, and being able to speak Qin Guo was already a very remarkable thing.

"What kind of grenade is this?" When the other Yueshi soldiers saw such a situation, they all gathered around. Curiosity is always a common trait for all.

"It's, what kind of grenade is this. Looks. It seems to be quite powerful. The other soldiers said. The grenades provided by the Qin army were still wooden long-handled grenades, which were offensive grenades with long throw and high lethality. Because of military spending, the Qin army did not develop more advanced grenades. At present, this kind of grenade can be imitated by Zhao Guo, but they use black powder, which may be larger, and the power is smaller than that of Qin Jun's grenade, because the explosives contained are different.

"Give it a try and see what kind of grenade it is. Get your feet wet. The other soldiers said nervously. They are curious about new things.

"Give it a try. Let's see how powerful he is. The corporal said boldly. They are commandos and have access to some ammunition, and their ammunition supply is very restricted.

Soon, the group came to an open field, where the corporal pulled out the grenade, threw it, and quickly hid.

"Boom." There was an explosion, and then there was a huge amount of white smoke, and they ignited everything that could be burned.

"Ahh The corporal who had dodged was set on fire by the flying white smoke stuff.

"Ahh Burned me. Burned me. "The corporals were rolling on the ground because of the white smoke, and they couldn't see clearly, but they could feel the pain by screaming.

"Hurry up and save people." The others stepped forward, and the white smoke caused a great deal of confusion to them.

"Damn it. You're throwing white phosphorus grenades. "Lieutenant Colonel of Sappers. Zheng Gong happened to come over and shouted loudly, he received a notice from China, telling him that a special batch of grenades had arrived there, because he had not been on the battlefield, and he needed to submit a special combat weapons report after the battle. He had only just come here to receive his weapons when he saw that the soldiers had already used them.

"Go and save someone." Zheng Gong said helplessly. Seeing the corporal's back burned out of the bones, many people felt a pain in their hearts. They didn't expect the white grenade to be so powerful, which made them feel terrified, but they were also very glad that they were the users.

"This grenade is so powerful that everyone has to be trained to use it." Zheng Gong shouted loudly.

"Whoever took the grenade, take it back. Otherwise, that's how it turned out. Zheng Gong shouted loudly. Hearing such a voice, the Yue's soldiers could only take it out secretly, many people were curious about such a good weapon, and everyone wanted to hide some weapons privately. Because of the negligence of the logistics staff, they mixed the grenades with the white phosphorus grenades to transport, which directly caused today's incident. Fortunately, Zheng Gong came very timely. Otherwise, there will be big problems. What happened today opened the eyes of these Yueshi soldiers, because they knew that the Qin people had brought a powerful grenade to them, which made them full of confidence, but the corporal could not participate in the battle, and the damage caused by the white phosphorus grenade made him unable to participate in the battle.

The white phosphorus grenade was the test product that the Qin army had delivered to the Yueshi battlefield, because there was no good battlefield to use such a grenade. The Qin army has a large number of officer observation groups in Yueshi, and they can clearly record such experimental data, which is the only high-power grenade developed by the Qin army at present.

The border area of Qi and Jiaozhou. The moon in the middle of the night was gradually obscured by the blowing clouds.

"Hurry up, hurry up." A middle-aged man waved his arm in motion. Many Qi people bent over and quickly crossed the border to the Jiaozhou area.

"Whoa." There was a sound of stones sliding.

"Damn, be quiet, the defenders heard. None of us can get by. The middle-aged man waved his arms and shouted anxiously.

"Yes. Be. Don't dare. Don't dare. Then the group quickly disappeared into the night. When the moon came out again, there was no one here. A sentry appeared not far away. The Qi soldiers just spun back and forth, and then went back to find a quiet place to sleep. For the matter of border smuggling, the defenders of the Qi army are used to it. They know that this kind of thing happens every day, where the card is strict, there is action at night, and in some places, it can be carried out blatantly during the day. The reason why they do this is because, when these people arrive in Jiaozhou, they will go to make money, and when they make money, they will become smugglers, they can bring all kinds of goods, and they can satisfy the desires of the defenders.

And those Qi defenders, if it weren't for the fact that they were soldiers and could get some benefits, they would also participate in working in Jiaozhou like those people, thinking that it was indeed very profitable.

In the early morning, a ray of sunlight pierces through the clouds, making the sun look less vicious.

"It's hired. Recruited. Railroad workers. The daily salary is eight and a half taels, and after the regular railway workers, there will be fifteen and a half taels, three meals a day. Two meals with meat. "In the border area of Jiaozhou, the recruitment staff of the railway company has already begun to recruit workers. There are a large number of horse-drawn carriages parked on both sides of the road.

"That, what." A stout Qi man came over with a woman and a child hiding behind the woman and asked the recruitment office, they had just come from Qi country. They need a job so badly. They were in the western part of Qi Kingdom, far away from Qingcheng, and he knew that Qingcheng's salary was twenty-five and a half taels a day, and a woman's salary was fifteen and a half taels. There are only fifteen and a half regular employees here, which is the same salary as the women in Qingcheng, but there is no way, there is still a long way to go to Qingcheng, they just came to Jiaozhou, they are not familiar with the place, and it is easy to suffer. Plus they need stability, if it weren't for Qi Guo's poverty, who would want to come here, and besides, he still brought his family. It's all singles who come here. They came here to marry their wives, and the women on the peninsula have a great attraction to them, as long as they have more than two hundred and a half taels, they can marry a peninsula woman, but unfortunately, they don't have two hundred and a half taels, in order to marry a wife, they can only come here to work, if you do the math, they only need to work for a month to earn enough money for their wives, and they can work for two months. You can build a new house. A lot of people have simple ideas.

"Seeing that you are with your family, it just so happens that the railway company also needs women to do some logistical work. Kid, we'll show you, the railroad company may hold a class, and the child is expected to be able to go to school. A man recruiting for work said.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you very much." The man thanked excitedly.

"In the future, I will call him, don't know what to call him, okay. Go over there and register, get in the wagon, and go. The other man said angrily. Then they started registering. Draw and board the carriage, which will take them to various construction sites. Everything was arranged.

"This Jiaozhou is good. You look at the carriage. The man said excitedly to the woman. The woman looked around vigilantly, there are the same women coming here, and the recruiters also need it, but there are not many of them, only men with their families can they need it, some people seem to be dissatisfied with such recruitment conditions, they are looking for coachmen to negotiate the price. They want to go to Qingcheng because only Qingcheng can need more people to meet their salary requirements. Unfortunately, they had no money, so they had to go to the construction site first. This is their helpless choice.

Sinjeong, South Korea.

"It's too dangerous." Zhang Liang worriedly took the telegram in his hand and said to Han Shu.

Han Shu just nodded and didn't say anything. She knows about this, and Jiaozhou has been absorbing people from Qi as a cheap driving force to develop, many Qi people who came to Jiaozhou also settled in Qingcheng, it can be said that the development of Qingcheng is inseparable from Qi people, of course. Jiaozhou was originally Qi people, but the Koreans run better than the Qi people, and now many Jiaozhou people or Qingcheng people are willing to call themselves Jiaozhou people or Qingcheng people, but they are not willing to call themselves Qi people, or Koreans, in their eyes, there may be no concept of the country, because South Korea does not recruit troops in Jiaozhou, just simply levy some commercial taxes, and many taxes are still exempt.

"If the people of Qi know, they will be very angry, I am worried that the people of Qi will be unfavorable to us, in that case, our situation will not be good." Zhang Liang said worriedly.

"Even if we don't do anything, the people of Qi will know sooner or later, and this problem is unavoidable." Han Shu said calmly.

"The development of Qingcheng is inseparable from the people of Qi." Han Shu said.

"Do we inform the Qi people, or we are really good enough to solve such a problem, if we can't properly solve such a problem, the Qi people are very angry, they block the southbound passage, it may have a very bad impact on us, in this way, our railway process will also have a very bad impact." Zhang Liang put forward his own opinion, he believes that when Qi does not know about this matter, South Korea should take the initiative to stand up, in order to gain the goodwill of Qi people, and properly solve such a problem, after all, such a thing still needs to be properly resolved by South Korea and Qi, if a dispute is caused, it is not only the Koreans who will be lost, but also the Qi people. Or, Qi can get a proper solution from South Korea.

"Hmm. No. I think, it's better not to do this, if the people of Qi suddenly open their mouths, how can we bear it? Han Shu asked,

"The people of Qi will definitely blackmail us, they will ask for a lot of benefits, in that case, we have no room for retreat at all, it is better to maintain such a state, we must not speak first." Han Shu decided.

"This. All right. Zhang Liang nodded helplessly and agreed. He knew that Han Shu had already made up his mind not to take the initiative to contact Qi Guo.

Qi State, Tian Heng's mansion, a telegram caused Tian Heng's anger.

"The border is maintained?" Tian Heng received a report from an eventful officer, he found out about the border of Qi and Jiaozhou during the inspection, he made him feel that the Qi army was slack, he just hoped to be able to transfer the garrisons in these areas, or to cut them, after all, they have a lot to do with the military consumption of the Qi army, in this way, the Qi army can be equipped with more troops' weapons, which is of great benefit to the Qi army, but what he didn't expect was that Tian Heng paid attention to another thing, That is, a large number of Qi people went south to Jiaozhou to look for opportunities for development, isn't this a disguised belief that the development of Qi has entered the Koreans? It's an irony. Or to veto the Tian clan's ability to govern the Qi State.

"Immediately change the border garrison, and set up a large number of barbed wire fences on the border between Qi and Jiaozhou, strictly investigate the people of Qi who go south, and severely punish those who commit repeat offenses." Tian Heng was annoyed and gave such an order to his staff officer.

Tian Heng was very annoyed, the consequences were naturally very serious, and he couldn't think about the impact caused. It's a kind of irony, after all. He couldn't stand it.
