Chapter 618: Internal Contradictions

Although the Silla people were prepared, they were also somewhat more advanced in terms of tactics than the Goguryeos.

But after all, it is still just the beginning, and in fact, their performance is still very immature.

Some mistakes that even a platoon commander in the Tang Army would not necessarily make, a general in the Silla Army would easily make this mistake.

There is nothing wrong with occupying the high ground, but only if you have an accurate anticipation of what will happen next.

For the Silla army, in fact, at this time, when the gap in strength between the two sides is getting wider and wider, the method that needs to be adopted is not this somewhat complicated tactic, but a simpler and cruder tactic.

As the so-called indiscriminate fist kills the old master, the Silla people want to win in this war, it is impossible, the Tang army has no logistical problems, no troop problems, and the tactics and strategies are more advanced, which is why the Silla people are doomed to defeat and starvation.

"In an army of more than 1,000 people, there are only about one-fifth of the iron weapons, I really don't understand how they have survived until now." Counting the gains on the battlefield, Xue Rengui shook his head helplessly.

The only reinforcements that really made a difference were the platoon that emerged from behind them, and they helped them stabilize the defensive line.

The other two platoons, one of them surrendered in fright, while the other platoon, when they arrived, the battle was already over.

"This is the fighting power of the Silla people?" The old platoon commander Sun Yi spat fiercely, and said with some dissatisfaction.

He is the platoon commander who ended the battle before he arrived, and his subordinates worked hard to run a distance of several kilometers, tired like a grandson, and the result was just waiting for such a result?

"Don't be careless, the Silla people are not as unbearable as we think." Xue Rengui kindly reminded him.

"Well, their combat effectiveness is still relatively tenacious." Sun Yi stared and nodded.

"Old Sun, take care of your stinky temper, I haven't eaten any meat?" Another platoon commander who was scared of the Silla people who surrendered directly reminded Sun Yi.

"What's wrong with my temper? Is there anything wrong with humbly accepting the advice of a colleague? Although Sun Yi said that he was modest, but this expression, this action, was extremely dissatisfied, even if he ran for nothing, a rookie was embarrassed to say these words to himself? Do you really think that you can do whatever you want when you come out of the military academy?

As if Lao Tzu was not from a military academy, Sun Yi waved his hand and said angrily: "Withdrawn, withdrawn, a large area has not been investigated." ”

"Old Sun, Old Sun......" Gao Hao called Sun Yi a little anxiously, but Sun Yi still left here with his subordinates without looking back.

There are not a few people in the army who have opinions about Xue Rengui, but in fact, this has nothing to do with Xue Rengui's own performance, more about his identity.

Ordinary soldiers don't have much opinion, under whom is it not a soldier?

First of all, after this group of people came here, they became platoon commanders, and they directly took away the original platoon commanders and became the same level as them.

If everyone comes out like this, it's nothing, after all, the balance has not been broken.

But the problem is, which of the current officers did not rely on their military exploits, and then went to the military academy for a period of time to study, and only came out step by step after passing the grades?

If you don't pass the grades, you can only be a squad leader when you come back, this is a personal problem, and no one has any complaints.

But Xue Rengui, a person like Xue Rengui, who has no actual combat experience and no combat exploits, became an officer as soon as he came, and with this identity, he will definitely squeeze their promotion space in the future, which makes people very unhappy.

Now he is the platoon commander, and if he goes up to the company commander, he will need four platoon commanders to compete, this is one of them, and Xue Rengui has the identity of the BUG of the military academy, will the chances of the other three people be greater?

Of course, this is only one of them, and the biggest resentment of junior officers comes from the fact that they go straight to office without any practical experience, and they are still in positions of real power.

Sun Yi's temper was not very good, he could bear it before, but this time Xue Rengui called for support, and he came in a hurry, but in the end there was nothing wrong, which suddenly ignited the anger in Sun Yi's heart.

However, this problem did not only appear in this place, in fact, it also appeared in later generations, after the national defense students were in the army, they were still very valued at first, but then they were excluded.

The biggest problem is that those people's hearts are higher than the sky, so it is not surprising that there is this result.

The only good thing about this era is that with the comprehensive militarized management and strict training, although these military academy officers lack actual combat experience, they still have no problem in terms of attitude.

But when a strong group joins a weak group and wants to grab their cake, all kinds of unpleasantness will always happen.

"Don't take it to heart, Lao Sun is this kind of character, in fact, he doesn't have any bad intentions, you will understand it after you get acquainted with him." Gao Hao explained a little embarrassed, although his position is the same as Sun Yi, but at this time, he still doesn't want any internal contradictions, this matter can be big or small, Sun Yi got into a commotion and ran away, he still has to find a way to resolve the matter.

"I can understand Platoon Commander Sun's feelings." Xue Rengui nodded, not taking this matter to heart.

"What's more?" Yang Wu, who had just gone to count the situation, hurried back, and he also saw Sun Yi leaving angrily, so he realized that something might be wrong, and hurriedly threw down the things in his hand and rushed over.

"It's nothing, Platoon Commander Sun was in a hurry to go back to the mission, and when he saw that there was nothing big here, he left first." Xue Rengui smiled slightly and shook his head.

"Well, how's the ammunition situation on your side?" Seeing that Xue Rengui didn't have the idea of publicizing the matter, Gao Hao also nodded in approval, and hurriedly pulled the topic away.

"There are enough bullets, but the consumption of grenades is a bit large, and now it is estimated that there are about a hundred left." Xue Rengui took a look at the general situation before, and roughly counted the ammunition situation, which is also a knowledge point of theirs.

A platoon has five squads, each squad has eleven people, plus the platoon commander is a total of fifty-seven people, but the platoon commander is not equipped with grenades, according to the full ammunition, each battle, the number of ammunition per person is 100 bullets and six grenades.

However, this time they came directly from the Central Plains, and in order to reduce the logistical pressure, they carried 200 bullets per person when they set off.

That is, when they came out, the entire platoon was three hundred and thirty-six grenades, but now, there are less than a hundred left.

This cost is quite fast, but given the sheer number of enemies they face, sometimes throwing grenades is not just for the sake of killing, so this cost is within acceptable range.

"In this way, our platoon did not participate in the battle, and we will give you sixty pieces out, and Lao Yang, you will come out with forty pieces." Trumpet continued.

"Yes, no problem!" Yang Wu nodded directly, although their platoon participated in the battle, they just threw a few grenades, put a few shots and it was over, and the consumption was almost negligible.

Moreover, it was their duty to supply some of the ammunition to friendly units on the battlefield that were more consumed, and he had no reason to refuse.

This is a trivial matter, and taking forty out of it will not affect them much, but Yang Wu is most concerned about other aspects.

"Xiao Xue, now that you have become the only one of the troops fighting against the Silla people, tell me your opinion." Yang Wu then asked.

He came early and also helped Xue Rengui stabilize the defensive line, but before that, Xue Rengui's defensive line was not chaotic, it was only because of the lack of manpower that he had to retreat step by step.

To be honest, the intensity of this battle is not great, but this situation on the battlefield is still more testing for a person who has just entered the battlefield.

He didn't know exactly how Xue Rengui commanded, but judging from the results he saw, Xue Rengui was not flustered.

As to whether they should fight and retreat for the time being, at least in terms of this decision, the results obtained so far are good, their platoon did not suffer casualties, but annihilated ten times as many enemies, and the line of defense was not in chaos.

At the first time when reinforcements arrived, they did not choose to accelerate their retreat, but stopped retreating, and through stubborn defense, they gave the supporting allies a chance to join the battlefield.

Don't underestimate the consequences of these two different decisions, one is the possibility that his troops will be attacked by a large number of enemies before they can gain a foothold.

On the other hand, he can calmly join the battlefield and deploy troops and arrange battles according to the actual situation.

This is also the reason why they were able to stabilize the front in the first place, strong strength is only one of them, the most important thing is that Xue Rengui has paved the way for friendly troops before this, and when the friendly troops arrive, they can directly counterattack, without having to go to time to adjust or anything.

It was precisely because of this that Yang Wu wanted to hear Xue Rengui's opinion on the enemy.

"There seems to be something wrong with the enemy's will to fight, their soldiers are more like they are forced to go to the battlefield, this is not a long-term solution, and the biggest impression on me in this battle is that the commander of the other side still has a certain talent, but he has not used this talent in the right place, maybe we need to pay attention to this next, once they find a problem, maybe there will be a certain amount of trouble for us." Xue Rengui said straightforwardly about his feelings.

They are all comrades-in-arms, they are all friendly soldiers, there is nothing to hide about these things, besides, he is just a platoon commander, is he capable of eating all the enemy troops?

If you don't have the ability, why don't you let someone else eat with you?
