Chapter 229: The Rabble (3)

The sun is finally setting, and the long day is finally over.

Before dark, the 3rd Infantry Brigade of the 8th Brigade of the Reading Force Mixed Brigade finally broke through the position of the 2nd Reading Regiment and advanced the battle line five miles again, however, judging from the map, there was still a distance of fifty miles from Qinghe County, and at this rate of advancement, it would take at least five days to reach Qinghe City.

Reading power mixed into the headquarters of the 8th Brigade, Shiro Segawa was meditating with his eyes closed.

Not far away, the military lunch box hanging on the fire to boil water had already boiled and was steaming outside, but Segawa Shiro didn't seem to hear it, Yoshida Minetaro, who was sitting next to him, hurriedly stepped forward to refill Segawa Shiro's teacup with boiling water, and then added some cold water to the military lunch box.

Shiro Segawa opened his eyes at the moment, tilted his head slightly and said, "Thank you." ”

Yoshida Fengtaro waved his hand, and said in a solemn tone: "General, Yue Weihan really deserves to be the henchman of the Great Imperial and Imperial Army, and what stands in front of us is obviously just a group of poorly equipped and untrained rabble, but under the command of Yue Weihan, it has become so difficult!" In one afternoon, the imperial army only advanced ten miles! ”

"This man does have some skills." Segawa Shiro said, "It's no wonder that the Imperial Army has been repeatedly inflicted. ”

Yoshida Minetaro said: "General, did you telegraph to the front army headquarters and ask for reinforcements?" ”

"Not necessarily." Segawa Shiro raised his hand abruptly and said, "It's not ancient anymore, with the development of science and technology, the impact of the personal ability of leading generals on the outcome of the war has been greatly weakened, while the influence of an army's training, logistics support, weapons and equipment and other factors has been greatly strengthened, Yue Weihan is indeed very good at leading troops and fighting, but his troops lack training after all, and the equipment is even inferior, and our brigade can completely eliminate them." ”

After saying this, Sekawa Shiro said again: "Yue Weihan is good at night battles, and prefers night battles, so he will definitely send troops to sneak attack tonight, order the troops, pay attention to vigilance!" ”

"Hello." Yoshida Minetaro bowed his head suddenly, and immediately took the order.

Seeing Yoshida Minetaro's figure disappear outside the tent, Segawa Shiro suddenly whispered to himself: "Yue Weihan, I want to see what tricks you can play with this group of rabble?" ”

…………

Qinghe County, Baoshan Brigade Department.

Yue Weihan put his hands behind his back and was looking at the map of the giant tent on the wall.

Although Yue Weihan's eyes looked a little sluggish, his thinking never stopped for a moment.

The troops, equipment, and combat effectiveness of the 8th Brigade, the troops, equipment, and combat effectiveness of the Baoshan Brigade, the casualties of the two armies after today's fierce battle, and the artillery battalions and cavalry battalions that are about to arrive have all been converted into data, which are rapidly calculating and changing in Yue Weihan's mind.

Yue Weihan calculated various possible surnames over and over again.

In the end, it was concluded that after advancing to the city of Qinghe County, the 8th Brigade of the Reading Force Mixed Brigade would become the end of the crossbow and completely lose its offensive ability, but if the Baoshan Brigade wanted to completely annihilate the Reading Force and the 8th Brigade, it would need to pay at least half of the casualties, that is to say, nearly 20,000 troops of the eight regiments were lost in battle!

Of course, this is just Yue Weihan's deduction, just for reference.

In fact, deduction is one thing, but actual combat is another, and in this world, no matter how powerful the deduction master is, it is impossible to really do it exhaustively.

In the sound of hurried footsteps, Liu Yi had already walked in with a gloomy expression.

Entering the war room, Liu Yi didn't say a word, picked up the kettle on the table and poured it up.

Liu Yi had just returned from his inspection of the forward position, and he also saw the Reading 1 Regiment and the Reading Force 2 Regiment, these two regiments had been completely disabled by the devils, not to mention that the positions were all lost, and most of the weapons and equipment were lost, the only thing to be thankful for was that the casualties were not large, and there were still more than 4,000 people left in the two regiments.

However, Liu Yi would rather these two regiments be wiped out!

If these two regiments are really exhausted, no matter how bad they are, they can fight out the devil and lose a team.

However, now, the two regiments are basically disabled, and the little devils on the opposite side seem to have suffered little loss.

Since the Baoshan Brigade became an army alone, it has never had such a sloppy record, and the strength of the two regiments, only holding a position that is no more than 500 meters wide, actually let the Yue army be defeated within half a day, and what is even more infuriating is that the Yue army only dispatched an infantry brigade, without aircraft to assist in the battle, and did not even use artillery.

"A rabble, this is a group of fucking rabble!"

Liu Yi slammed the empty kettle on the table, and finally scolded.

Yue Weihan was silent, but he could completely understand Liu Yi's mood, he was accustomed to the elite and incomparable Baoshan Brigade, and suddenly faced such a group of rabble, who could stand it? For example, a veteran soldier was already accustomed to using a Type 92 heavy machine gun to attack the enemy, but one day he was suddenly asked to fight with an old sleeve, and it was strange that he didn't go crazy.

Liu Yi quickly realized his gaffe, took a deep breath at the moment, tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, and then said worriedly: "Luza, I doubt now that your plan can be realized?" With this rabble, not to mention attacking a big city like Shijiazhuang, it is difficult to say whether it can defeat the Segawa brigade in front of you. ”

"Chief of Staff, in fact, Cao Xinglong and Lu Xiufeng did a good job, really." Yue Weihan said unexpectedly, "At least, it's much better than I expected, I thought that this afternoon's Segawa Brigade would be able to defeat at least three of our regiments, but now that only two regiments have collapsed, it can already be regarded as a victory." ”

"Uh......" Liu Yi was suddenly dumbfounded when he heard this.

Yue Weihan pondered, and suddenly said: "Order, Cao Xinglong and Lu Xiufeng will immediately take over the 3rd and 4th regiments, and the 1st and 2nd regiments will be temporarily led by Huang Baocheng and Liao Yaoting, and they will be withdrawn to the county seat to rest!" ”

"Huh?" Liu Yi was stunned and said, "Luzao, what are you ...... Do you change troops or not? ”

"Yes, change troops and not generals!" Yue Weihan nodded heavily and said, "The troops must fight in turns, and this rabble must be familiar with the atmosphere of the battlefield in the shortest possible time, however, the leading generals do not need to be changed frequently, or Cao Xinglong and Lu Xiufeng are in charge of defense, and see if they can survive a day tomorrow with the strength of two regiments?" ”

Liu Yi suddenly understood Yue Weihan's intentions, the brigade not only had to train soldiers, but also trained generals!

Cao Xinglong is thoughtful, Lu Xiufeng is cautious, Chi Chengfeng is as fast as the wind, and Li Qinglong is as fierce as fire! These four people, two shields and two spears, seem to have been pinned on by the brigade, and suddenly, Liu Yi has a trace of expectation between his eyebrows, and said: "Cao Xinglong and Lu Xiufeng did not disappoint the brigade, but I don't know if Chi Chengfeng and Li Qinglong can bring some surprises to the brigade?" ”

"Surprise?" Yue Weihan pursed his lips and said abruptly, "Offensive warfare is no better than defensive warfare, the difficulty of commanding and dispatching troops will only be higher, and it is especially difficult to attack at night, just with the two fools of Chi Chengfeng and Li Qinglong, it will be considered a major victory if they can lead that group of rabble to bully within two hundred meters of the devil's station tonight." ”

"Two hundred meters?" Liu Yi was stunned and said, "This shouldn't be enough, right?" ”

"Not really?" Yue Weihan said abruptly, "Then let's wait and see." ”

For a well-trained regular army, night marching and night assault are very simple subjects, but for a rabble who have never received formal training, it is a difficult task to complete, and you can never imagine what kind of unexpected situation will arise when a group of rabble marches at night!

…………

Dark and deep.

Dense dark clouds obscured the stars and moon, and the four fields were pitch black.

On the wilderness where you can't see your fingers, more than 500 rabbles are marching, and thousands of meters away is the devil's camp, and the rabble dare not use torches or flashlights, so they can only move forward in the dark.

These more than 500 rabble are the Reading 16 Regiment led by Chi Chengfeng, and there are more than 2,500 people in the Reading 16 Regiment, but there are more than 500 people left behind Chi Cheng, and the rest are all lost on the march.

"Plop." Chi Chengfeng, who was walking in the front, stepped on the air and fell into the small ditch.

Chi Chengfeng got up from the small ditch in embarrassment, turned around and admonished: "Pass backwards, there is a ditch in front, pay attention to your feet." ”

Chi Chengfeng's guards jumped over the small ditch, and then turned back and said: "Pass backwards, there is a ditch in front, pay attention to your feet." ”

A soldier passed: "Pass backwards, there is a ditch in front, pay attention to the feet." ”

Two soldiers passed: "Pass back, there is a ditch ahead, pay attention." ”

Three soldiers passed: "Pass back, there is a ditch ahead." ”

Four soldiers passed: "Pass back, there's a dog in front." ”

Five soldiers passed: "Turn back, there's a dog in front!" ”

So starting with the sixth soldier, they all turned around and went back.

Chi Chengfeng groped forward for a hundred meters, and suddenly felt that the movement behind him was much smaller.

When Chi Chengfeng hurriedly turned around to count the number of people, he found that there were five people left behind him, so he was so angry that he scolded: "His grandma, where are the people?" Where have all the people gone? ”

The guard and the other three soldiers looked at each other, speechless.

…………

Another direction.

Li Qinglong's Reading Power 14th Regiment also took advantage of the night to approach the devil's station.

Li Qinglong's situation is not much better than Chi Chengfeng's, and there will be more than 600 troops who can still follow him, and all of them have blue noses and swollen faces, and they don't know how many falls they have on the road.

finally touched within 500 meters, but something went wrong, and a recruit fell to the ground with one foot in the air.

Fall and fall, but this recruit egg because of nervousness, his fingers were still on the trigger of the rifle when he was marching, and the rifle was not yet safe, this fall immediately pulled the trigger, the red light flashed, and the hot bullet had pierced the head of another recruit in front of him.

As soon as the shots rang out, the target was exposed.

Two flares suddenly rose in the camp of the army, and the dazzling bright light suddenly illuminated the entire field as if it were day, and in an instant, several machine guns on the tower of the army also rang out violently, and the bullets splashed like water in front of Li Qinglong, and the grass and mud were splashed everywhere, and the broken grass flew, and Li Qinglong was helpless, so he had to order a retreat.
