Chapter 491: Li Qing's Waterloo (1)

"The mind is unpredictable!" Li Qing gave Zeng Yifan such an evaluation. www.biquge.info It seems that the battle of Shenzhou will not be as smooth as he imagined, Li Qing turned around a few times, turned back to Tian Feng and said: "This time we cooperate with Zeng's army to encircle and annihilate Lu Fengchun, we have to keep an eye on it!" ”

Tian Feng's fingers slowly crossed the map, "Marshal, according to the strategy agreed between you and Zeng Yifan, our Dingzhou army and Liaozhou army are divided into two routes, and Lu Fengchun is attacked left and right, and there are more than 20 counties in Shenzhou, and on our route, most of them are Lu Fengchun's heavy troops stationed in the area, Zeng Yifan gave us a hard bone to gnaw!" ”

Li Qing waved his hand, "This is not the point, as long as his right side plays a certain role in diversion, I didn't expect the Liaoshen army to play a big role in this battle, as long as they don't make trouble." ”

"This can't be guarded against, Dashuai, I suggest that this time our operations rely entirely on our own systems in terms of logistical assistance, without Zeng's, in this way, although the cost is a little bigger, but rest assured. What's more, after this battle, we have every reason to ask them for this sum of money from the Zeng clan. ”

Li Qing smiled slightly, "If this is the case, we must send a part of the army to escort it, which will make the front-line combat forces even more tense!" ”

Tian Fengsun said with a smile: "Dashuai, Changsheng Division 30,000 elites, then swept the north, this time Dashuai brought nearly 30,000 people, and pulled out 10,000 8,000 people, it will not affect the progress of the war, but we must make sure that we do not have any problems in the rear when we advance." ”

"I'm afraid I have to separate a heart and eye to guard against any changes on the right wing!" Li Qingdao.

Tian Feng nodded, "Dashuai, in fact, the other party is a mule or a horse, as soon as the battle starts, you can see that the clues are coming, during this period, we can arrange a group of people and horses in Kang County, you see, Kang County is located at the intersection of the left and right wings, as long as there is any change on the right side, we will find it in Kang County at the first time, and we can deal with it calmly." ”

Li Qing nodded, "Do you estimate that Lu Fengchun will have a large-scale cavalry battle with us this time?" ”

Tian Feng shook his head, "I'm afraid not, if I were Lu Fengchun, I would never do this, Dashuai, our Dingzhou cavalry is famous all over the world, and its combat power is so strong, everyone in the world knows it, although the cavalry of the Northern Army is brave, but whether it is combat power, equipment, especially morale, it is not the same as us, Lu Fengchun is not stupid, and he will never make a move to hit a stone with an egg." ”

"Will he hold on to the city?" Li Qing frowned, "The Northern Army is not very good at defending the city. ”

"I think Lu Fengchun must be a mix of infantry and cavalry, scattering troops, the commander, please look at the general deployment of the opponent's troops, it seems to be scattered, but in fact it is scattered, no matter what point we attack, we are all involved and launch the whole body, he wants to mobilize our troops as much as possible, find our flaws in the sports war, and strive to break it."

"In this way, in the early stage of the war, Lu Fengchun will definitely not bump into us, but want to lure us into this circle." Li counted the map, "Then use these city strongholds to disperse our forces." ”

"Not bad!" Tian Feng said.

"Hit well and pay attention!" Li Qing sneered, "But why should we do what he says, Tian Feng, the goal of our early battle is not to destroy the enemy, but to suppress people with momentum, and slowly compress their forces towards Shenzhou City, forcing Lu Fengchun to concentrate his forces in Shenzhou City to fight with us." ”

Tian Feng nodded, "I think so too!" It's a pity that the Tuojiang River is about to freeze, and Zheng Zhiyuan's naval division must be withdrawn, otherwise with the mobility of the naval division, we will have greater flexibility in choosing the battlefield, and Lu Fengchun will not be able to find the focus of our possible attack at all. ”

"Yes, the Tuojiang River freezing season is coming soon!" Li Qing said abruptly, "Otherwise, it will save a lot of effort to win Lu Fengchun." ”

Swinging his head, Li Qing threw this idea into his mind, how could things be as good as he wanted, and drew a straight line along the map with his hand: "Tian Feng, the first step, you gather the Changsheng Battalion, the Whirlwind Battalion, and the Red Cavalry, a total of more than 30,000 people, and cut me along this line, cut off the left wing we are responsible for, and form two different war zones." Sweep away the enemy's troops outside the city and press them into the city. And to find out the deployment of the opponent's forces in these two areas, so as to decide which area we will fight first. ”

"Yes, Marshal, this is the first time on the battlefield of the Central Plains to gather such a large-scale cavalry!" Tian Feng said with a smile. "Only we in Dingzhou can have the confidence to show so many cavalry."

"The first step is to chill the enemy's courage first!" Li Qing waved his arm, "If you don't fight, the enemy will be cowardly first, or you can win without a fight." ”

"Who will Kang County send to garrison?" Tian Feng asked.

"Let Nokia go! The two battalions under his command have been fighting continuously for nearly a year, and most of them have fought hard and vicious, and the losses are quite large, and it is time for them to rest and recuperate, and last time I promised Nokia that he would make up each battalion to 6,000 men, and this time I took the opportunity to rest and recuperate, and first replenished a batch of them. ”

"Moreover, Nokia is alert and decisive, if there is really any problem on Zeng's side, then he also has the ability to deal with it on the spot, although Wei Xin also has this ability and experience, but his violent bear battalion is mainly foot soldiers, if there is really any problem, it is difficult to solve it in time. The others, Jiang Kui and Lu Dabing are all fierce generals who charge into battle, and if they want to do this kind of thing, they are afraid that it will be bad. Li Qing sighed.

"Yes, Dashuai, with Nokia in Kang County, there shouldn't be any problems." Tian Feng nodded.

"The destination of our first phase of the operation is to stay in the town!" Li Qing counted a small black dot on the map, "The army takes the location of the town as the horizontal line, and after reaching this level, it will stop attacking. ”

In mid-October, the Shenzhou beacon fire, which had been silent for a long time, burst out, and the Dingzhou army and the Liaozhou army were left and right, like two big pincers, pressing towards Lu Fengchun's department in Shenzhou.

Li Qing's tens of thousands of cavalry gathered cut the left flank in two, and then divided the troops in four directions, penetrated deep into the counties, and forced the enemy to retreat into the county seat, but the local commander of the Lu clan was very alert, and never had a large-scale conflict with the Dingzhou cavalry, once he sensed that the county town was in danger of being surrounded on all sides, he immediately ordered to abandon the city and break through, facing the situation of slowly breaking through like a turtle shell, and surrounded by the enemy, the Dingzhou cavalry did not have the certainty of a successful blow, and was never willing to fall into a bitter battle with the enemy, but just followed them closely.

For a whole month, although the Dingzhou army forced the enemy to retreat for hundreds of miles, but the real results were only a handful, only Wang Yan of the Changsheng battalion had a small victory, in Pingxian, he used the trick of luring the enemy to make the enemy deceived, annihilating nearly 1,000 enemies.

After fighting for a whole month, I occupied a lot of territory, but I didn't destroy many enemies. And on the right flank, Zeng Yifan's form is not very good, it is different from the tactics adopted by Li Qing, and Lu Fengchun's method of dealing with him is not the same, bullying the Liaoshen army is not as good as the northern army, Lu Fengchun faced Zeng Yifan, and used a completely hard-hitting method, and from time to time he would launch counterattacks and counterattacks, compared to the waves of the left wing, the right wing was full of flesh and blood, even if Zeng Yifan had an absolute superiority in strength, but in a month, he only advanced less than fifty miles.

The strategy of flying the left and right wings together is now one foot long and one foot short. The Dingzhou army poked out, while the Liaozhou army was still shrinking behind. Li Qing had to stop the pace of the attack.

This month, the first snowflakes fall from the sky, and the weather is getting cold. Zheng Zhiyuan's sailors have already withdrawn from the Tuojiang River, and the Tuojiang River is about to freeze, so the sailors of the longitudinal model Tuojiang River will have no place to play, but will become a target that cannot be moved on the Tuojiang River. With the withdrawal of the Marines, all logistical transportation was completely dependent on land supplies.

The tens of thousands of troops of the Dingzhou army were distributed within four or five hundred miles of the periphery, while Li Qing's Chinese army was stationed at the foot of Mogan Mountain, and an infantry battalion led by Chen Zeyue and nearly 10,000 people of the 3,000 personal guards guarded Li Qing's safety.

Early in the morning, when Li Qing walked out of the warm tent, the cold wind couldn't help but make him shiver, and the iron leopard behind him hurriedly came over to put on a fur coat for him, rubbing his hands, Li Qing asked, "How are the soldiers?" In such a cold weather, don't freeze! ”

Iron Leopard smiled: "Don't worry, don't worry, you don't know the equipment of our Dingzhou Army, a few days ago, gloves, hoods, brand-new cotton jackets, and quilts were all sent down, and now our soldiers, except for the two eyes outside, the rest can be covered tightly, and they will freeze there, besides, we are at the foot of Mogan Mountain, on this mountain, there are inexhaustible trees for heating." Although the weather was choking, it didn't affect us much. ”

Li Qing nodded, the output of cotton in Dingzhou is not high, it is mainly used for military purposes, and the rest is sold at a high price to earn high profits. Cotton cloth is indeed much more comfortable than silk linen when worn on the body, and Li Qing's investment in the army has always been quite generous.

"Dashuai, this kind of weather is actually more favorable to us, I see, it's really hard to say how much of the enemy on the opposite side still has a few percent of combat strength, why don't we take this opportunity to fight his son of a bitch!"

Li Qing smiled, stomped his feet, and jumped on the ground, "The right wing is too far behind, if we fight forward, it will become a lone army in depth, and Lu Fengchun will concentrate most of his strength to deal with us, in that case, it will be too passive for us, so we have to wait." ”

"The Liaoshen army is really useless, there are only 20,000 or 30,000 northern troops in front of them, and their 50,000 people have been fighting for so long, but the harvest is so low. If we were to replace us on the right flank, we would have beaten them to the ground! ”

Li Qing laughed and said: "If we go to fight the right wing, then Lu Fengchun's focus will go to that side again, we don't care about fighting there, what is in front of us must be the main force of the other party." The Liaoshen army is not useless, but this weather is really a little annoying! (To be continued.)
