Chapter 142: The enemy retreats, and I chase

The Qing army soon found out that these Qiu Erniang's rebel army actually accelerated every time they caught up, and after several times, the Qing army knew the problem no matter how stupid they were. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

"My lord, these traitors are really cunning, they want to drain our physical strength!" The general of the Qing army said.

Wang Yide sat in the sedan chair and knew what the problem was. However, he also knew that he couldn't go on like this, and Su Yi could only give up the pursuit for the time being.

"Prepare to retreat!" Wang Yide said.

Wang Yide knew that if he continued to pursue, he would not only fall for the enemy's scheme, but also lose his troops. Retreating quickly in this way will help you to preserve your strength first. Otherwise, being led by the enemy by the nose is a taboo for soldiers. Even if he is a literati and an enemy, he knows that once he is led by the nose by the enemy, then your defeat is not far off.

However, Wang Yide did not notice that his troops had actually begun to be seriously disjointed, especially the artillery behind.

"You see, the artillery of this Qing army has begun to be seriously disconnected, and it is already five kilometers away from the main force. We concentrated thousands of people, which was enough to destroy this Qing artillery team. This Qing artillery corps had three artillery pieces, all of which were red-coated cannons. This Qing army was obviously very dogmatic, and actually brought artillery to fight in the mountains, and the mountains were very unsuitable for artillery advances. And the artillery was heavy and could not be moved and deployed quickly. As long as we concentrate our superior forces and destroy this artillery, then we will capture the artillery as soon as possible, and then let the militia transport the artillery as soon as possible. Qiu Erniang said.

Qiu Erniang knew that this was the best time to eat the opponent's artillery, because the artillery was fighting in the mountains, even at close range, and the combat effectiveness was almost zero. The artillery is most afraid of getting close, and once the artillery is close, it is just a flock of lambs to the slaughter, and their artillery is inferior to a knife or even a stick.

"Dispatch!" Qiu Erniang ordered.

The 1,000 rebels immediately went around the artillery units behind the Qing army and attacked the Qing artillery team. The artillery of the Qing army was suddenly attacked by thousands of enemies, and quickly surrendered to its knees in fright. In particular, this artillery team was no more than a Xun formation, with no more than seventy or eighty people and three artillery pieces. But in the face of thousands of soldiers, all of whom were fighting in close quarters, they quickly surrendered on their own initiative.

Next, Qiu Erniang ordered these soldiers to transport the red-coated cannons away quickly, and then the soldiers returned to their combat posts again, and those things that were transported could be handed over to the militia.

"Sending these artillery pieces and captured artillery to Shanghai by sea, I think my husband will like it very much. We need artillery and artillery the most at present, and with these three red-coated cannons, although they are a little worse than the artillery of foreigners, artillery is the most valuable. Let these artillery prisoners be responsible for teaching our new artillery. Qiu Erniang said.

And the red of the year. The army is almost the same, and Chen Dingtian's troops have an important problem, that is, there is a serious lack of technical arms. Artillery, for example, is even more lacking. As for Yiliang, although Yiliang has artillery, he will not give it to Chen Dingtian. Yiliang is still a little embarrassed about the mastery of his soldiers at present, on the one hand, those Qing troops are certainly following Yiliang to support their own troops, but they may not agree to follow Chen Dingtian and them to rebel. Therefore, the Qing army under Yiliang is actually still biased towards the Qing Dynasty in his heart, Yiliang does not say that it is impossible for him to send artillery to support Chen Dingtian, and on the other hand, those soldiers may not be willing to take the initiative to get along with the traitors.

Therefore, artillery is seriously lacking in Chen Dingtian, and now it is good to capture these Qing artillery artillery, that is, a company or so. With these seeds, then they can be sent to the Huangpu Military Academy to serve as artillery instructors, as long as they are willing to teach basic artillery use, that is also possible. As for those red-coated cannons, although they may not be enough to go to the battlefield, they are more than enough for teaching. Although the power and range of the redcoat cannon are not as good as those of foreigners, the principle of use is the same, and the teaching of the principle of use is actually common.

"Lord Governor, our artillery corps, our artillery corps has been annihilated by traitors! The artillery was also snatched away! ”

Wang Yide said angrily: "What's the matter? How could this be the case with these artillery? ”

"My lord, the artillery has been disconnected almost eight miles from our infantry. They sent troops so hard that we didn't have time to come to the rescue. My lord, we have fallen for the traitor's tactics! The Qing army general replied.

This was clearly Qiu Erniang's tired plan, so after Qiu Erniang's troops attacked the artillery, they all quickly chose to leave and did not stay in place. Because once the main force of the Qing army catches up, it will be equally unfavorable for them. Qiu Erniang hoped to annihilate these Qing troops at the lowest cost, so as to ensure that she could get the maximum benefit. And not only to reduce the casualties on their own side, but also to reduce the casualties on the enemy's side, these Qing troops are also not professional, and they can be completely incorporated.

Adhering to Chen Dingtian's teachings, Qiu Erniang understood that it would be more painful for the enemy to kill the enemy by adopting the enemy's pen, so as to prevent the Chinese from hurting each other excessively in the civil war. It can be said that there is no harm in all benefits, so why not do it?

"My lord, we found such a book in the place where the besieging artillery was annihilated, you see?"

Wang Yide opened the book, and then wondered: "On protracted war? ”

Wang Yide soon found the word "Chen Dingtian" in this author's column. Wang Yide was only familiar with this name, and Chen Dingtian's "Officialdom Appearance" at that time made the entire East China officials tremble with anger. However, Wang Yide did not feel the pain on his skin, so Wang Yide was only at the level of "hearing".

Wang Yide turned the first page and immediately discovered the 16-character formula for guerrilla warfare in Lima, and his face turned black.

"Damn, the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy retreats and I chase, the enemy is stationed and disturbs me, and the enemy is tired and I fight? Bastard, it turns out that they used this trick on us, bastard! Wang Yide said angrily.

Wang Yide then continued to look below, took a cursory look at Chen Dingtian's version of the protracted battle, and then gasped.

"It's terrible, Chen Dingtian, it's terrible. He is a literati, if he becomes a thief, he must be the most terrible thief in the world, the most terrible thief! Wang Yide gasped.

Wang Yide thought that he had been in officialdom for many years, and he had already cultivated at home. But this time I was actually frightened by this book, this book is terrible, if these traitors continue to develop, then I am afraid that the world will be in chaos. Even the squires and landlords who were the foundation of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and even the various traditional landlord classes, had to be wiped out, and the consequences were terrible.

"This Chen Dingtian is not only going to destroy the Qing Dynasty, but also to destroy our species!" Wang Yide was furious.

For these scholars, they are not afraid of changing the dynasty, but as long as they do not change the system of landlords and gentry who rule the country, as long as they do not change the system of landlords and gentry, and change the basic economic system. They didn't mind working for the new court. But now, this Chen Dingtian actually wrote this theory of protracted warfare, not only openly wrote this method of rebellion, but also the method of encircling the city from the countryside, such a method is actually an out-and-out conspiracy, even if it is made public, there is no way. This is simply the most effective method of rebellion in ancient and modern times, and it is also the most deadly method.

"Retreat immediately, retreat, don't entangle with them!" Wang Yide shouted.

The Qing army hurriedly retreated under Wang Yide's orders, but the rebel army would not give them such an easy retreat.

Qiu Erniang ordered: "Chase me, chase hard!" Bite them to death for me, stick to them. ”

The Qing army began to retreat, but they could not escape the pursuit of the rebels, because the rebels began to bite their tails and even stick to them. But every time the Qing army wanted to turn back and fight the rebels, the rebels retreated again, this time clearly using a tired tactic to make those Qing troops miserable.

"The enemy retreats and I chase, this is their strategy of the enemy retreating and I chase!" Wang Yide took the book and said.

Wang Yide really feels that this sixteen-character formula is really too powerful, because this sixteen-character formula is unsolvable. This is an upright and upright scheme, although this sixteen-character formula is public, even if Wang Yide knows it, so what, what can it be? Because this is actually insolvable, because this is very suitable for the enemy, not for the Qing army.

"The road is simple, don't look at it is only sixteen words, but it makes us have no choice. What do we do next? Wang Yide smiled bitterly.

These Qing troops have been completely caught up in the plans of the rebel army, and there is no way to do it. Because the rebel army is like a piece of kraft candy sticking to them, if the Qing army retreats, the rebel army will also pursue. However, if the Qing army wanted to fight in reverse, the rebel army took advantage of their ability to run in the mountains to distance themselves and not fight the Qing army head-on. In short, it is to give full play to the advantages of being good at running in his own place, and the Qing army is not good at running and the disadvantages of various weapons and equipment are magnified to the extreme.

As long as the rebel army does not take the initiative to fight against the Qing army, and does not go to the Qing army to fight a decisive battle, but runs around to consume their sharp energy, this can also ensure that their combat effectiveness is also consumed.

No matter how strong the Qing army's combat effectiveness is, no matter how powerful their training level is, then in the face of these rebels, they will constantly run and consume their physical strength. If they have the stamina, then the so-called training is enough, and that is just a joke. No matter how well trained a soldier is, it will be useless if he does not have physical strength to support him. A boxing champion who has no physical strength, maybe a small child can kill him.

The rebels clearly tossed their physical strength and sharpness, but now they had no choice. The Qing army had already begun to be very tired, even ......

"Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang, what's wrong with you? Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang is tired to death! A Qing soldier shouted while holding the corpse of his comrade-in-arms.

This situation immediately spread in the Qing army, and some people were actually tired to death. And just like an infection, many Qing troops also began to get tired and lie down. Although they did not die on the spot, in short, they all began to fall to the ground on the spot, whether it was true or fake. However, most of them were tired and fainted, and there was no exhaustion to death.

The Qing army, true or false, was half tired on the spot, thousands of people were so tired, and the Qing army instantly lost more than half of its personnel in non-combat. The rest of those who did not even "lie down" began to plummet their morale and completely lost their fighting spirit.

"We're going to rest, we're going to rest!" "We're going to rest, I'm going to rest!" ……

Many low-level Qing officers and soldiers began to clamoring for rest and asked to be stationed in place to rest.

Wang Yide hurriedly said: "Can't rest, we will be stationed at one point, then the third move of these traitors, the enemy will come out soon!" ”

Since Wang Yide saw this sixteen-character formula, he has actually understood this routine for a long time. However, this Wang Yide does not have a good solution, if this guerrilla war is so easy to crack, then the old Jiang would have cracked it a long time ago, and he would not let the red. The army has become bigger. This tactic, even if it is clearly told to you, how can you do it, and it is not to be cleaned up?

Of course, Wang Yide knows this third move, that is, the enemy is stationed and disturbs me. Once they are stationed, then Qiu Erniang will definitely come to disturb them, making them even more tired.

"My lord, if the persecution continues, the soldiers will mutiny." The general of the Qing army said.

Wang Yide said: "Won't you enforce military law? ”

"My lord, military law is military law, but the law does not blame the public!" The general of the Qing army said.

Wang Yide was very frustrated, and this "law does not hold the people accountable" is a good illustration of the current problem. Whether the Qing army was really home on the spot, it was more than half of the tired. Some people even died of exhaustion. Even those who didn't lie down on the spot, most of them were very tired. These Qing troops were actually not good at fighting in the mountains, and the rebel army also adopted this tactic of exhausting physical strength, and the roots could not be solved.

"My lord, I think we just need to live some, then we don't rush out to fight the traitors, then we can also ensure stability, let's rest first!" The generals of the Qing army still said with some luck.

The generals of the Qing army had a lot of luck mentality, thinking that as long as they didn't take the initiative to go out to fight, they would be fine if they stuck to the same place. It's a bit wishful thinking for them to think so, but it's the best way. The soldier was already tired, and even if the remaining half did not lie down, it must be very tired. If the persecution continues, then these soldiers will mutiny. The fighting will of these Qing troops is not to mention the red of later generations. army, and even some local warlord troops during the anti-Japanese period are inferior.

In fact, in the hearts of the vast majority of Chinese, and even the vast majority of rebel troops, this so-called expulsion of Tatars is actually essentially a Chinese civil war. After all, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has been in charge of the Central Plains for many years, and it has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so the vast majority of people, including the rebel army, think that it is a "civil war". This kind of civil war, without the blessing of "national righteousness", so what are you doing desperately?
