The generals of the Suzhou New Army are all command-type talents that Li Hongfei has focused on cultivating, and they do not need to have high personal combat effectiveness, but the key is to know how to adapt to changes and flexibly use various tactics.........

These things took Li Hongfei more than half a year to sort them out little by little. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yang Xiu and the others have no armed forces, and they don't understand anything else, so if they really want to arrange for them to command the army, it is estimated that it will not be long before the new army that Li Hongfei has finally trained will become the old army charging with machetes.

"Special Forces? What kind of team is it, is it also the Suzhou New Army? Feng Sanyou only cares about whether it is the new army in Suzhou.

"Of course it is, and it's more powerful than the average Suzhou New Army." Li Hongfei replied.

Soon Li Hongfei gave a general explanation of the treatment of the special combat team and their role on the battlefield.

"Aren't that scouts and assassins........" Xue Zhen was disappointed.

"If I tell you that General Guo Sheng relied on 50 special combat soldiers to lead 2,000 Yangzhou City to defeat the army, kill all the way from the south gate to the riverside, break through the blockade of more than 50,000 Qing troops, and finally break through smoothly, do you still think that the special combat team is a scout or an assassin?" Li Hongfei asked rhetorically.

In order to prove the value of the special combat team, Li Hongfei came up with a killer feature.

Even if it's really just a scout or an assassin, it's the top scout, the most powerful assassin.

"Is it really so brave? Didn't it mean that it was the 500 Suzhou New Army led by General Zhang Chao? Yang Xiu asked.

In the first battle of Yangzhou, everyone in the entire Nanming Dynasty knew it, and Zhang Chao's name also resounded throughout China in that battle.

"The five hundred new troops should only be responsible for receiving the breakthrough of Shi Inspector Shi and the others, presumably Shi Doushi's army was covered by the special combat team at that time, so they were able to rush out of the city." Yao Qisheng analyzed.

From only a part of the rumors, plus a few words of Li Hongfei's explanation, he can analyze the general truth of the first battle of that day, and he is worthy of being a famous military strategist in history.

"That's amazing! I, Feng Laosan, must join the special combat team! Feng Sanyou listened with enthusiasm.

Fifty people attacking an army of 50,000 people is more exciting than 500 people resisting 50,000 people, although there are various factors and coincidences in it, but it does not prevent Feng Sanyou from worshipping this special combat team.

Not long after Li Hongfei placed the sacrifices of the guard platoon and the wounded soldiers, and made promises to Yang Xiu and other rescuers, Guo Sheng hurried from outside the city with a company.

The Governor was attacked by such a big matter, and the army defending the city in the city must of course notify the new army in Suzhou as soon as possible.

Fortunately, Li Hongfei had nothing to do except for a big bag on his head and sprained his foot when the carriage overturned, and finally arrived at the front line of Yuhuatai under the escort of Guo Sheng's troops.

And Yang Xiu and others, because they wanted to join the special combat team, also went to Yuhuatai together.

As for Yao Qisheng, Li Hongfei decided to let the other party follow him first and become an office clerk, which can be regarded as mixing up qualifications, and it can be regarded as justifiable to take office in Shanghai County in the future.

"The Tartars are so hateful that they sent assassins to assassinate the Lord, which is a despicable and shameless method." Zhang Chao scolded the Manchus for being shameless in the camp.

They are soldiers, they all like to fight on the battlefield, and they don't bother to engage in these small actions at all.

"Remember what I said? No matter what the means, as long as you can win the war at the minimum cost, it is an effective means. Although the Tartar trick is shameless, it is indeed very effective, if it weren't for the soldiers' lives, I would really be hanging this time. Li Hongfei said with palpitations.

He is now the governor of Nanjing's city defense, once something happens, Nanjing must be unstable, the beheading tactics of later generations, is not a casual boast, sometimes the victory or defeat of a war, the leader of the army will play a decisive role.

Especially in ancient times, the belief of many soldiers was not the country and the king, but simply because of the personality charm of the leading generals.

"Adults still have to pay attention when traveling in the future, with the current status of adults, it is not too much to bring an accompanying guard." Stilwell suggested.

He thought that Li Hongfei only took one platoon to travel, because he was worried about the problem of "supporting the army and respecting himself", after all, the rank of the generals of the Ming Dynasty, and the accompanying personal soldiers, but there were strict regulations, it didn't matter if there was less, once the regulations were exceeded, they would definitely be admonished by civilian officials.

"I just don't want to bother with it, but I'll pay attention to it later. Now that the matter is over, let's talk about the war in front of us. Li Hongfei accepted Stilwell's kindness and turned the conversation to the current situation.

"Since the Qing soldiers can think of assassinating adults, then why don't we treat others in the same way, and treat others as they are, now that Prince Azig is in front of the enemy formation, I can arrange special combat personnel tonight to infiltrate the enemy camp and assassinate Azig." Guo Sheng proposed.

Unexpectedly, Guo Sheng also planned to implement the "decapitation tactic".

The concept of "decapitation" in modern warfare was developed by the British military theorist Fuller.

Later in World War I, he proposed a "paralyzing attack," also known as a "decapitation attack," in which attacking the enemy's chain of command was the primary objective.

As early as a long time ago, Huaxia used this tactic in warfare, such as: capture the thief and capture the king first, fight the snake and hit the seven inches, go deep into the tiger's den and so on.........

Assassins, killers and the like are special arms that implement "decapitation tactics", but assassins and killers, with the subsequent evolution, gradually departed from the original intention, plus the ancient literati, they were very shameful about this kind of assassination, and gave it the title of "despicable".

Even most generals feel that killing the enemy with real skills and not engaging in "conspiracy" is the style that a general should have.

This is also the main reason why Zhang Chao denounced the Qing army.

It was Guo Sheng, who had followed Li Hongfei for the longest time, and learned a lot of "conspiracy" from Li Hongfei, and when he learned that the Qing army had sent someone to assassinate Li Hongfei, the first thing he thought of was to use this trick to deal with the Qing army generals.

"The idea is good, but Azig is surrounded by 200,000 troops, and just breaking through the defense line of these defenders is basically impossible with the current capabilities of the special combat team, not to mention that among us, no one knows Azig himself." Li Hongfei denied.

Nowadays, in the Ming Dynasty, there was no so-called long-range artillery for fire coverage, so the Qing army camped without the need to disperse the army.

Such an iron bucket-like guard is not something that Guo Sheng's subordinates, those half-special combat team members, can easily break through.

Moreover, the clothing of the generals of the ancient army was not as easily recognizable as in later generations, and without knowing Azig himself, even if he infiltrated the enemy camp, it would be difficult to really assassinate the other party.

obviously losing money, Li Hongfei will not do it.

"But when you say this, it reminds me that the Chinese army in this Azig is well defended, but the artillery or grain and grass of the Qing army must not be so difficult to approach." Li Hongfei said suddenly.

"What do you mean.......... Burn grain and grass! Guo Sheng quickly understood.

"Burning grain and grass is not the most important thing, after all, Azig is not stupid, even if he does not guard it strictly, he will put it in batches, and now it is in the territory of my Ming Dynasty, the Qing army has no grain and grass, and it is still my Ming people who suffer, and it is difficult to pose much threat to them. However, if the artillery team of the Qing army is blown up, near this Yuhuatai, the Qing army will not be able to move an inch! Li Hongfei said.

When the Qing army invaded the Central Plains, the two biggest weapons were cavalry and artillery.

The cavalry galloped on the northern land, coming and going like the wind, and the Ming army could not catch up with the other party at all, and it was easy to be slowly consumed by the Qing army in the movement.

And artillery is the heavy weapon of the Qing army's siege of the city, whether it is Tongguan guarded by Li Zicheng or Yangzhou defended by Shi Kefa, without exception, they were all captured by a large number of artillery.

Now the mountains near Yuhuatai have limited the combat effectiveness of the Qing cavalry, and if the opponent's artillery is destroyed again, then the Qing army's 200,000 troops are nothing in Li Hongfei's opinion.

Moreover, firearms are extremely powerful and belong to dangerous goods, so it is naturally impossible for the Qing army to be placed in the camp of the Chinese army.

Even with the fear of firearms in the ancients, it is estimated that there will not be too many defenders around, which provides an excellent opportunity for Guo Sheng's subordinates, half-hung special combat soldiers.

"My lord is wise, I will send someone to blow up the artillery team of the Qing army."

After Guo Sheng finished speaking, he planned to get up and leave.

"Wait, what time is it now, when you bring in and infiltrate the enemy camp and find out the location of the artillery, it is estimated that the sky is dawning, even if the Qing artillery is blown up at that time, will those soldiers still have their lives to come back?" Li Hongfei stopped Guo Sheng.

What Li Hongfei needs is a special combat unit, not a member of the death team.

If you want to blow up the artillery of the Qing army, there is only one chance, and once it is exposed, the Qing army will definitely take strict precautions.

What's more, after some tossing and turning earlier, it is now midnight, and when the special combat personnel infiltrate the enemy camp, it is estimated that the sky is already bright, and it is simply a joke to blow up artillery in broad daylight.

"What should I do, the main force of the Qing army has entered the vicinity of Yuhuatai and rested for a day, and tomorrow morning, it will definitely attack in a big way." Guo Sheng was also anxious.

In the first battle of Fengtai Mountain, the Shenji Battalion also attacked all night long, so during the day today, it failed to send troops to harass the Qing army, and Li Hongfei asked Zhang Chao to retreat before, so that the Qing army marched fast, so that before sunset, it occupied the entire Fengtai Mountain.

Now that Li Hongfei is going to gather the whole army to fight head-on with the Qing army, the Shenji battalion will naturally be recalled, and the Qing army, which has not been disturbed, will definitely attack Yuhuatai in a big way early tomorrow morning.

"Don't worry, with our current strength, there is no problem in withstanding Azig's attack for a day. At that time, you can let the special combat team lurk in the shadows, observe the position of the Qing army's artillery, and wait until it gets dark, and then take out all the artillery in one fell swoop. Li Hongfei said.

More than 70,000 Ming troops, guarding the mountains, Li Hongfei is still confident that he can block the 200,000 army for a few days.

And when the Qing army attacks tomorrow, it will inevitably use artillery, and even for convenience, it is very likely to be centralized, as long as the location of the artillery is found and destroyed, that is, a matter of a few explosive packs.
