Chapter 6 The Great War is Imminent
Jin Jie thought about it and said: "Or we can stop the Tieji tribe from advancing eastward, if the Lion King Army can send troops to help us, we will allow the Tieji tribe to advance eastward and get our protection, how about the general?" ”
"Good!" Mo Geda clapped his hands and said: "Just do as you say, take two steps, first reveal the news to the Lion King Army, and if they don't move, then make a trip to the Tieji tribe." Resolutely do not allow them to retreat further eastward, and at that time I don't believe that Cheng Lei will still be able to sit still! ”
Jin Jie told Mo Geda about his other idea, that is, they should learn the method of the Itos army, raise the army with the people, and rely on the location of Daheng City to fight against the third-level army of Balono. They marched from the southern battlefield to Daheng City, and they definitely couldn't fight a protracted war, as long as they insisted on preventing their previous rounds of attacks, then the crisis of Daheng City would be solved immediately.
Mo Geda was particularly impressed by the foreshadowing of Jin Jie's laying of the Tieji tribe at the beginning, and Jin Jie's method had more than eighty percent chance of blocking Balunou's third-level corps outside Daheng City. Mo Geda immediately decided to promote Jin Jie to the chief of staff of the Liedong Federal General Staff, and to command the staff officers of the entire staff.
In the past, the position of chief of the general staff was part-time by Mo Geda, but now it is taken out separately and given to Jin Jie. In this way, Jin Jie directly became the first person below the commander-in-chief of the Liedong Federation Army, Mo Geda, and the power of the Liedong Federation can be said to be above 10,000 people under one person.
The people in the Tieji tribe are now panicking, and the tribe's top brass has already learned the news that a third-level army of 4,000 people in Balunou is heading east. The station of the Tieji tribe is in the grassland directly east of Daheng City, and if Balonou's third-level army wants to kill in Daheng City, then it must pass through the station of the Tieji tribe.
If you let Balono's corps come over. Then the iron-based tribe will definitely be razed to the ground by them. With the more than 1,000 cavalry of the Tieji tribe now, it is impossible to match the armed Baren'ou army.
The leader of Dun Leha asked Dahengcheng to transfer the Tieji tribe to the grasslands northeast or southeast of Dahengcheng, but Dahengcheng did not agree at all. Dun Leha also completely saw that Daheng City's intention to leave them behind was completely to find a backing.
In the Ironbase Tribal Chamber. The chief of Tun Leha sat on the throne smoking a hookah, his brow furrowed and he looked very bored. Teki sat down at the bottom of him, and although he couldn't see anything on his expression, he was definitely in a bad mood. Shigeyama kept pacing around, looking very anxious.
Dun Leha finally couldn't help it: "Chongshan, what are you walking back and forth endlessly!" ”
Chongshan paused for a moment and said, "Aren't I in a hurry? The Sentinel reported that in three days Balon's corps would arrive at our station, if there was no better way now. What will we do with the iron-based tribe then? ”
Dun Leha sighed and said, "Chongshan, you sit down for me!" What's the use of saying this now? You can't come up with an idea, and it's a top guy to complain! Can this be solved by complaining? ”
Chongshan had to sit down on the chair angrily, and then Temu said, "Father." I think Valen'o was targeted. As long as we give them the way and don't bother them, I don't think they will embarrass us! ”
Dun Leha said: "There are fewer things about Baren'o burning and looting in the territory of the Scorching Sun Federation? This is a matter related to the safety of our entire Tieji tribe, don't act with a fluke mind, remember! ”
Teki nodded. Then he said, "Then father." Would you like to contact my brother-in-law and see if he can help us? Didn't the eldest brother say that his brother-in-law's army was strong last time he came back from his visit? ”
Tun Leha said, "Your brother-in-law has just now had his own territory, and now that he has settled down, we are going to ask him to send troops to help us?" Don't say I'm afraid that others will say that I have to rely on my son-in-law for everything, even if it is for the sake of your sister Qinglan's happiness, I can't do that! People marry daughters-in-law, not trouble! ”
After a meeting, the three of Dun Leha, father and son, decided to continue to negotiate with Daheng City on the issue of transferring the station, if it was really impossible to coordinate. The Tieji tribe can only fight with more than 1,000 cavalry and more than 3,000 young men in the tribe to fight with the third-level army of Balono! No matter what the outcome is, they do their best.
The next day. The leader of Dun Leha personally lectured more than a thousand cavalry and hundreds of newly recruited recruits from the tribe on the grassland to the west of the tribe: "Brothers of the tribe, I believe everyone knows that our tribe is now stationed in the territory of Daheng City. And everyone should already know that there is a three-level army of more than 4,000 people in the Baron'ou army that is heading in the direction of our tribe. Daheng City does not allow us to move to the steppe to the east, so it is now time for the Tieji tribe to live and die. ”
His voice was particularly solemn, and after a pause, he said: "Brothers, the Tieji tribe is our homeland, we have to defend our homeland, I am afraid that a major battle with the Balonou Legion is inevitable. Brothers, are you confident that you will be able to defeat the enemy and achieve victory, so that the enemy will not be able to harm our homeland and loved ones? ”
"Yes!"
"Yes!" "Yes!"
The thousands of soldiers shouted in unison at a very high pitch, and the scene looked particularly grandiose. Dun Leha nodded with satisfaction: "Good! Now that we are all so confident, let's start arranging our defensive fronts, and remember, to defend our homeland, we can only win and not lose! ”
Tun Raha had just finished speaking, when a guard of the personal guard came running in a hurry and said, "Report to your lord, there has been a force of about fifteen or six hundred men in the northeast of our tribe, all of whom have never been dressed before, and they seem to have cars or something. ”
As soon as Dun Leha heard the news, he was immediately shocked, this is Cheng Lei sent someone! He hurriedly ordered the guards happily: "Go to Chongshan immediately and let him identify it, and if it is someone from the Lion King Army of Yinta City, immediately introduce them into the garrison." Then he said to himself: "Great, this kid Cheng Lei has lived up to my heart for him, this news is simply exciting!" ”
Of course, this force that appeared in the northeast was sent by Cheng Lei from the Lion King base. And this time, Cheng Lei personally led the team, Li Changcheng's Cheetah Infantry Regiment followed, and then brought a battalion of chariots from the Lion King Armored Regiment.
Cheng Lei also instructed Zheng Bin to be on call at any time in the base. This time, he didn't have many soldiers, and if it wasn't enough at that time, Zheng Bin would immediately send troops to help them. Of course, Qinglan also heard about the proximity of the Balunou army to the Tieji tribe, and she was worried about her parents, so she wanted to follow Cheng Lei, but Cheng Lei refused. Qinglan had no choice but to stay, there was no way, Cheng Lei was very principled as long as he got down to business.
"Son-in-law to meet my father-in-law!" As soon as Cheng Lei met, he gave Dun Leha a big gift. Dun Leha hurriedly asked Chongshan and Temu to lift him up. Then Dun Leha said, "Son-in-law, I have not intended to inform you of this news since I heard of the eastward march of Balon'ou's army. I didn't expect you to take the initiative to come, I have had you as a son-in-law for most of my life, it's worth it! ”
Cheng Lei said with a smile: "My father-in-law is serious, for me, this is just a gesture." However, it is related to the life and death of the Tieji tribe. After I heard that Daheng City did not allow you to transfer your position, I immediately brought my troops over. They won't allow them to move, so let's kill the invading enemy and leave nothing behind! ”
Tun Leha couldn't help but say after hearing Cheng Lei's bold words: "Virtuous son-in-law, we can't underestimate Balen'ou's army. It is said that their combat effectiveness is very strong, and the ratio of the battle losses of the Itos army to them is three to one. ”
Cheng Lei nodded and said: "I know this, but they were transferred from the southern battlefield in the west, and then came here non-stop, they must have been tired for a long time." Moreover, they could not fight a protracted war, and it was quite difficult to get supplies in this vast grassland. So they will launch several rounds of fierce attacks at the beginning. Since it is an impact, then cavalry must be used, could it be that the cavalry of the Tieji tribe is not as good as the cavalry of Balen'o? ”
Dun Leha slapped the table and stood up: "I don't dare to say anything else." When it comes to cavalry, I can guarantee that the cavalry of the Tieji tribe is the best! The Baron's soldiers are strong, but no matter how strong their cavalry is, they can't be the match for those of us who grew up on the grasslands! ”
Cheng Lei nodded: "Father-in-law, I'm relieved to have your words, we will let the soldiers eat, drink, rest and rest well in the past two days, the most important thing is to raise their spirits and prepare to meet Balen'ou's army!" ”
On the vast grassland, an army of thousands of people dragged on for a long time, and the smell of gunsmoke on the soldiers was very strong, and at first glance they were all soldiers who had just been on the battlefield. This army was a third-level corps of the Balen'ou army withdrawn from the southern battlefield, and the commander of the corps was named Serenf, a middle-aged man in his thirties.
This corps was named after Serenf and was called the Serenfu Corps. They were ordered to march eastward in order to support the Eastern Battlefield and directly attack Daheng City, the capital of the Liedong Federation. Let Daheng City have no time to take care of the battlefield on the side of Silverstone City, after taking Silverstone City, the army will rush eastward, and the Liedong Federation will inevitably collapse.
The Serenfu Corps was one of the few third-level corps in the southern battlefield that had been well preserved, so the battlefield commander gave them this task. All the officers and soldiers were full of confidence, they were iron warriors honed from blood and fire during the invasion of Sun City and the surrounding city-states, and there was no need to take those Daheng City troops who were used to peaceful times in their eyes.
Now that they were only a little more than a hundred kilometers away from Daheng City in a straight line, the sentry reported that there was a nomadic tribe blocking the way in the grassland directly east of Daheng City. Now this tribe is still in a posture of wanting to resist, Selenfu can't help but feel amused after hearing this, the little nomads want to block our army of thousands of people, I really don't know what they think in their heads!
Serenf ordered the army to continue its march, encamping thirty kilometers close to the nomadic tribes, and then burying pots to cook. After the soldiers had eaten and drunk enough to rest, he did not believe in his heart that the nomadic tribe would dare to attack them.
Cheng Lei was also actively preparing for the Tieji tribe, he directly set up their trenches on the west side a few kilometers away from the tribe, and sent people to start digging and building various fancy bunkers and machine gun bunkers. Cheng Lei is very familiar with doing this kind of thing, but due to the limited materials of the iron-based tribe, the bunkers and bunkers built do not meet his standards.
Cheng Lei also asked Chongshan to send people to scatter a lot of horse nails that could pierce the horse's hooves in the middle of the preset battlefield due west, of course, not to mention the setting of mines, just waiting for Baronou's army to attack, and then give them a good taste.
In this world, the use of landmines is still very small, there is basically no use of landmines as a weapon of destruction, and few people know how to make landmines. And everyone thinks that the lethality of artillery is much stronger than that of mines, but Cheng Lei has studied the materials of the Vietnam War in depth, and he has a very clear understanding of the lethality of mines. To say that more soldiers died under mines in the Vietnam War than at gunpoint.
Therefore, Cheng Lei decided to make full use of the various uses of landmines in this world and give full play to its role. Now this battle with the Serenfu Corps is just Cheng Lei's order to train soldiers, and only in the real war can the soldiers' skills in all aspects be fully trained.
Li Changcheng particularly agreed with Cheng Lei's decision, and he also believed that soldiers can become real warriors in battle. Moreover, it was Li Changcheng who came to help the Tieji tribe resist the Balonou army this time, and he just wanted to see what the combat effectiveness of the army in this world would be like.
Moreover, Baron'ou's army is the most powerful army in the Eastern world, and Li Changcheng certainly does not believe in the legend of Baron'ou's invincibility. However, he will not despise the other party, but will fight the other party as if it were a real opponent.
Two days later, the Serenfu Corps arrived more than twenty kilometers away from the Tieji tribe, and then they began to set up camp in a posture that they wanted to be permanent. However, Cheng Lei and Li Changcheng both knew that the other party was just trying to confuse them, and when they were so confused that they were about to believe it, the other party would strike at them with lightning speed, which was a common trick in the military, and it was not worth mentioning at all.
Now the cavalry of the Tieji tribe is all assigned to Cheng Lei's unified command, and Cheng Lei ordered everyone to stick to their own front, not to act rashly or take it lightly, and to be ready to meet the attack of the Serenfu Corps at any time.
The Serenfu Corps did not send any more sentry scouts to inquire about the situation, because they were too close now, and they were afraid that the loss of the sentry would outweigh the losses. Moreover, they already knew about the situation of the Tieji tribe, and they didn't see any obvious ambushes or anything like that, so they took it for granted that the Tieji tribe didn't have anything to come up with.
Some of the young and enthusiastic officers lost interest in this battle of great disparity, and in their minds it was like an adult bullying a child, even if they won the battle, their faces would be disgraced.
However, Serenf did not dare to take it lightly, and he ordered to march five kilometers to the garrison of the Tieji tribe every day as a temptation. This was also the usual tactic of Baron's army, which would launch a fierce attack on the enemy once they had advanced to what they thought was the best. (To be continued.) )
