East. Turkic steppes.

An unknown place.

The light cavalry of a thousand troops was a light cavalry battalion under Fang Xu's command.

Fang Xu's guerrilla tactics are being carried out, looking for fighters and annihilating one of Jieli's elite men.

In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, the Yongle Emperor made five expeditions to Mongolia, when the Ming Dynasty soldiers were strong and strong, the Yongle Emperor was wise and martial, and there were many famous generals, and his command was full of elites in a hundred battles, why did he not sweep away the remnants of Mongolia.

A very important factor is that the Han people lack cavalry, while the Mongols are herding people, skilled in bows and horses, and have always bullied the weak and feared the hard.

In the early Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu besieged Gaozu by Bai Dengzhi, and Chen Ping bribed the Xiongnu Shan Yu with heavy money, so that Gaozu was able to get out.

And by the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Wei Qing, Huo Quai, Shi Yanran, Feng Wolf Juxu, and even the Xiongnu royal court were trampled under the hooves of the Han iron horse. Hundreds of thousands of people who control the strings are panicked like lost dogs.

During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the five were chaotic and inhumane, if there was no Ran Min born out of nowhere, I am afraid that the Han people would have to rewrite.

Guerrilla warfare is irregular warfare. With attack as the main means, it has a high degree of mobility, flexibility, initiative, offensive and quick decision, and can widely mobilize the masses to participate in the war.

Guerrilla warfare has a long history in China. In the Battle of Wu and Chu in 512 BC, there were guerrilla combat operations. According to legend, the "Grip of Qi Jing" written by the Yellow Emperor Feng Hou believes: "The shape of the guerrilla army, the first move is quiet, avoiding the real and attacking the false, depending on the victory and the prosperity, the knot tends to the ground, and the four classics are broken." "The combat operations of the guerrilla units are vividly described.

The first person recorded in the history books to use guerrilla warfare tactics in detail was Peng Yue, a general of the Han during the Chu and Han dynasties.

But it should be said that the culmination of guerrilla warfare is none other than Mao Taizu, the founding leader of later generations.

In the revolutionary war led by the Communist Party of China, guerrilla warfare played a very important role. During the period of the Agrarian Revolutionary War, the Red Army relied on the base areas to persist in guerrilla warfare in accordance with the characteristics of the enemy's strength and weakness, and preserved and developed itself. During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army went deep behind enemy lines and carried out guerrilla warfare on a large scale and for a long time, resisting more than 60 percent of the invading Japanese army and more than 95 percent of the puppet army. During the War of Liberation, guerrilla warfare effectively complemented regular warfare. The protracted revolutionary war has enabled the Chinese people to create many unique methods of guerrilla warfare, such as sabotage warfare, mine warfare, sparrow warfare, ambush warfare, tunnel warfare, and siege warfare. These flexible and mobile tactics have demonstrated the richness and variety of China's revolutionary guerrilla warfare.

Sabotage warfare to destroy important enemy military targets. The targets of a sabotage are usually the enemy's roads, baggage, and chain of command. The purpose is to cause the paralysis of enemy communications, the failure of command, the difficulty of supply, the weakening of forces and mental tension. After leaving the city, we will go around to the east. After the Turkic military horses, they used to dig pits and traps, dig trenches, lay traps and other means to restrict the east. Turkic, divided east. Turkic, and the camera captured the Bauhinia Pass, cutting off the enemy's rear route.

Ambush warfare, the tactics of attacking the enemy in motion. It is divided into waiting for ambush and ambush, waiting for the enemy or luring the enemy into the ambush circle to attack and attack. Ambush warfare requires concealment and concealment, a sudden attack, a quick victory to destroy the enemy, and a quick fight and quick withdrawal. This tactic is suitable for attacking the east. The Turks gathered grain and grass and plundered the people's military horses, as long as they were relatively scattered in the east. The Turkic army, we can all break the enemy like this.

Assault warfare is a tactic of taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to carry out a surprise attack on him. Usually choose a garrisoned enemy that is not strong in combat effectiveness and is not well guarded, and is convenient for attacking, and with rapid and sudden movements, a quick battle is decided, and a quick fight is quickly withdrawn. This tactic is particularly suitable for striking the East. Turkic scouts and baggage.

Raid warfare is a tactic of warfare that kills, injures, intimidates, disturbs, and exhausts the enemy by all kinds of deceitful means. Usually carry out raiding activities with individual soldiers or small groups, using various ways and means to kill and injure the enemy, create all kinds of illusions, bluff, and confuse the enemy. The Turks are fine, one day is not less idle, ten days a day is not idle, as long as they can constantly die every day, it is good to create a tense atmosphere.

The so-called guerrilla warfare: swimming is walking, striking is fighting, literally understood as a swimming attack. The essence of guerrilla warfare is that the enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy is stationed and disturbs, the enemy is tired and we fight, and the enemy retreats and we pursue. Guerrilla warfare is an operational mode that follows the five basic principles of rational selection of combat locations, rapid deployment of troops, rational distribution of troops, rational selection of combat timing, and rapid retreat at the end of the battle.

The theory and basic principles of guerrilla warfare, that is, the 16-character principle: the enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy is stationed and we disturb, the enemy is tired and we fight, and the enemy retreats and we pursue. Attack-based offense is the basic form of guerrilla warfare; Combining centralized command in strategy with decentralized command in campaigns and battles is the command principle of guerrilla warfare.

On the prairie, in the face of numerous ****** tribes, the cavalry battalion of the Red Army fighting guerrilla warfare was like a dragon entering the sea and a tiger descending the mountain.
