Section 11 Initiative
Gonzhas came quickly, and he rode the same tall Hercules horse, with strong muscles with dark fur, as strong as his master, "General, the brigade is moving at a normal pace, and there are hardly any people to be seen in the nearby hills. ”
"No, Gonzas, there must be something I haven't seen, send someone to contact Alker, I want information about the caravan in the direction of Dhamgan." Lao Luo shook his head, these can only be appearances, there are too many places to hide in the wasteland of Central Asia, if someone sneaks up, as long as you organize thousands of people to hide in the nearby caves, send one or two shepherds as spies, as long as the raid at the critical moment is likely to disrupt the pace of the march, although a small number of people may not necessarily cause any loss to the Lord, but the blow to morale is inevitable.
"General, do you mean ......" Lao Luo's order was a little sudden, and Gonzas naturally had some doubts.
"That's right, I feel a little bad, there is no reason, there is an enemy who may be waiting for us in Dhamgan, it is the intuition of the battlefield!" Lao Luo didn't care that he used the word intuition to speak, in this era when everyone has faith, the credibility of a general who has won many battles is more convincing than tens of thousands of scimitars. Of course, this practice will definitely be scolded to death by the boss in the future life, and the companion will blame to death, and a "brainless" crime will definitely not be able to get rid of it, although they will also use intuition to judge the enemy's position or determine whether their bullets hit the target when they are fighting.
In this era, attributing things that you don't understand to God is the norm, and according to Lao Luo's daily performance, things such as things that everyone around him knows - putting things away with space, combined with his combat ability, have gradually begun to deify in the hearts of those around him.
Gonzhas was indeed as Lao Luo expected, and said without the slightest hesitation: "Obey, general!" How do you need a cavalry school to deal with it? ”
"Gather the team, the front and rear teams, respectively prepare to meet the front and rear of the main battalion brigade, here is close to the mountains, it is estimated that the enemy will not raid, but will choose a dangerous section of the road to ambush." The feeling of uneasiness in Lao Luo's heart has not changed, as the team advances, looking at the mountains not far away, his thoughts are getting clearer and clearer, if he thinks about it, what will he do if he comes to attack this team of tens of thousands of people?
If the person planning the attack is a smart person, he will definitely not choose a cavalry raid, not to mention that the surrounding terrain is not suitable for cavalry to run quickly, the periphery of the eastward return team is the elite cavalry, and the inner home team can be surrounded into a huge hedgehog body, and the simple cavalry will be crushed like the waves of the Magyar Sea hitting the reef.
So it can only be with the help of terrain, first of all, to break the obstacle of the body of the van, with rolling wood or falling rocks? And maybe a projectile of Greek fire?
The thoughts in Lao Luo's mind were immediately clear, "Gonzas, order someone to investigate the narrow road ahead, especially pay attention to the places with mountain passes on both sides, if you find the enemy, you are not allowed to attack, retreat and defend." ”
Gonzas's execution of orders was first-class, and he had not hesitated to give orders to Lao Luo since the raid on the outskirts of Smyrna. Having such a subordinate is both happy and distressing in Lao Luo's eyes, happy that you don't have to worry about his action on the task, and distressed that he will fully follow your instructions without questioning.
When he thought of this, Lao Luo felt that he had to look at Shu, and his subordinates were not satisfied? But the problem is that Lao Luo really feels that he lacks a guy who can argue with him, without him, at least he can help him discuss such a thing as a combat plan, at least not like now, the life and death of tens of thousands of people are pressed on his body, for fear that there will be an negligence that will cause casualties.
"Lord, Alker is back." As Lao Luo was thinking, Nuralman reminded loudly beside him.
When Lao Luo looked up, he happened to find that Alke, riding a half-breed Altegina horse, was running from a distance with smoke and dust all the way. At present, this guy has begun to completely stand alone, and the guy who is jumping around with Min Monkey is also very good with him, and he has been passing back all kinds of news along the way recently, if it weren't for Lao Luo's prohibition on them fighting with rival tribes, I'm afraid the scout team would have become a real advance team.
"Lord, call ...... There is an enemy ambush in the northeastern mountains, calling ...... It's right on top of the mountain pass. Alker didn't even breathe a sigh of relief, and directly reported breathlessly.
"What is the number of people on the other side and what is the equipment? Can you determine which clan it is? "The reason why I asked the origin of the enemy at the end is because in this era it is really difficult to distinguish the characteristics of the race, and when the clothes are similar, you can only look at the face, the problem is that in this era, basically all men will have a beard, and it is hellish to be able to distinguish clearly.
"There are about 2,000 people who can be seen, ...... But because they are spread over the mountains,...... There were at least five thousand people in size, and it was impossible to see what special equipment there was, and our men could not get close, and if it were not for the telescopes given by the general, they would not have been able to detect them at all. Alk took the water bladder from Nurralman's hand, but did not drink it immediately, and waited for his breath to calm down a little before he continued: "Min Monkey said that the enemy should be the Turks, and there are many Samanids mixed in. ”
"Then it's the man who contacted the organization from the merchant Pasar last time, and it seems that the matter in Rai City was also instigated by him......" Lao Luo didn't expect anyone to answer, but just let Heiyun follow him, while thinking carefully, "Alke, how far is the suitable place for camping in front of you from the enemy's ambush place?" ”
"Returning to the general, there are many suitable places to camp along the trade route, and the nearest one can be within five miles of the mountain pass." As a scout, Alker is basically familiar with this kind of road, and it doesn't take much effort to say it.
"Okay, you will go and keep an eye on the enemy's movements with your men, and send someone to stay in a suitable position for camping, and we will camp there tonight, and we will not leave." The choice of the location for camping is completely a routine, and there is no need to emphasize it at all, so Lao Luo completely trusts Alke's vision.
Alke took the order, and Lao Luo directly turned his head and instructed Alki, "Send someone to inform Cheng Shouru and Gonzas, camp fifteen miles ahead, be on full alert tonight, and implement the plan number B3." ”
As early as before departure, Lao Luo pulled a group of generals with troops to analyze the various situations that may be encountered along the way, and worked out various combat plan numbers along the way, which has the advantage of not having to write military orders every time, and not having to repeat them to prevent fallacies, so as to ensure the speed and accuracy of message transmission, and at the same time can also play a role in confidentiality.
The scheme of the B series is to take a defensive position, and the following numbers are different defense methods and defense levels. If there is a series of B characters, there will naturally be a word A and a word C, but the word A is an attack plan, and the word C is a joint small-scale combat plan. After all the plans are numbered, it is naturally a thick book, but the generals of this era are in a hurry, whether it is the Tang Dynasty in the East or Rome in the West, they have never asked the generals to do this kind of task of recording words.
The military copywriting of the Tang Dynasty was completed by the marching Sima, and there were special officials such as heralds, while the Roman custom was often that politicians acted as commanders, and the generals also only needed to obey orders, let alone touch written things.
Of course, Lao Luo doesn't care so much, Cheng Shouru comes from a family of Jiangmen, Gonzas, a Thracian, is not a barbarian in ancient times, of course, he is also literate, although he only knows Latin, the rest of the people are naturally not allowed to have opinions, and his battle plan is so forcibly implemented. This is the advantage of being the commander, he can completely change some things according to the current combat habits, and now in this situation, there is no need to worry about some emperor Lao Er pointing fingers at him.
Of course, Lao Luo can't act recklessly, what he wants to change is what has been proven to be effective by later generations, and the reform of military orders at least makes the establishment of the army more streamlined, and there is no need to mix in literati to carry out the so-called royal education - of course, it is impossible to want so many literati at this time, and only the Zhang family is considered a pure literati in the original Tang camp.
The Zhang family wants to get involved in the army? Lao Luo can only hehe, they don't have the courage, because if they don't get a bandit encounter, they will lose their lives inexplicably.
Saying that it was far away, watching Alke ride back to the reconnaissance position at the front, Lao Luo's heart was completely relaxed.
For the encounter with the Turks, Lao Luo had already prepared in his heart, and he was a little worried before leaving, but now that he finally came into contact with their news, Lao Luo's mood was calm. The invisible enemy is the most troublesome, and now that the enemy has appeared, all that remains is for the soldiers to block the water and cover the earth.
It's not that Lao Luo is arrogant, but now the Donggui team has been basically integrated, and I dare not say that it is invincible in Central Asia, and with the leadership of the cavalry school, it will not collapse without a fight, and the cavalry school has been constantly suppressing bandits on this road, at least it is no problem to act as a blade on the battlefield.
At the same time, since the enemy did not dare to meet the enemy head-on, it could only prove one thing - their strength was not enough to confront the Donggui team head-on!
Now it should be the Turks racking their brains to come up with an ambush strategy has been discovered, it is estimated that they never imagined that Lao Luo in the hands of the telescope this kind of cheating weapon, attack and defend the other, the Turks lost the initiative, the next result is nothing to worry about, after all, there is no ground-to-ground missiles and other big killing weapons in this era, the battles in the era of cold weapons basically take place in the sight, under the condition of equal morale, the competition is completely the efficiency of the organization of the two sides. If you shoot quickly, you can block the arrows that come from shooting, and you can prevent the spears from piercing.
This kind of war, which is completely different from the era of thermal weapons, can stimulate the blood in men's hearts more, just like a man like Lao Luo, but he will not shout any passionate bloody words, but silently wipe the Ran Yu long knife in his hand over and over again, his eyes are shining.
