On the front line of Liangguang, Shaoguan City has been transformed into a defensive system similar to that of Quanzhou under the advice of Australian military experts, with hidden forts and moats already built, not to mention watchtowers. With the recent arrival of more and more supplies in Azig.

The assistants of the 1st Australian Battalion, the commanders of the 1st Company Makarov and Yu Shan Qiaoyan, could clearly sense that the war was approaching, and the Manchu army on the opposite side seemed to be preparing to attack, or they were preparing to confront them like this for a long time.

However, this confrontation is the most devastating, because the soldier's heart is in a state of high tension every day, and the mood determines a person's performance on the battlefield.

After several years of tempering, Makarov is already a qualified grassroots combat commander, and Qiao Yan has also become a company commander because of his own efforts, only Yu Shan is still a second lieutenant, but he is an old man in the company, and everyone still respects him.

Although Yu Shan usually speaks a little arrogantly, he is not ambiguous at all at the critical moment, he is definitely a qualified soldier on the battlefield, even if many times he will complain that Makarov is stupid, and even say bad things behind his back, but on the battlefield, as long as it is the other party's scared order, he will absolutely carry it out.

"Boss, I said that the enemy on the other side will not attack so quickly, you can see that they seem to be gathering."

Yu Shan was standing on the watchtower with a telescope and looking at Azig's side, and suddenly noticed that something was wrong, so he said to Makarov on the side.

Makarov took the telescope in his hand and looked at the opposing camp, and then became furious.

"You idiot, the other party is training routinely, haven't you noticed it in the past few days?"

Training on a daily basis is a feature of the Azigh army, perhaps because they are afraid that once the soldiers stop, the fighting will be reduced, so they will come up with such a way to keep fighting.

But in Yu Shan's view, this is a ploy by the other party. They want to use this stratagem to paralyze their side.

"No, head, listen to my explanation, this time is different, they all have guns in their hands, they usually train like this, they don't know how to hold guns in their hands, do you think something is wrong."

Yu Shan's rebuttal made Makarov even more furious, this guy always thought that he had observed some great information, didn't he realize that it was Wednesday. Wednesday was the day when the other party was training with a gun, so Makarov was a little angry, this guy obviously didn't care.

Although Makarov is very unhappy with his subordinate, I have to say that this guy is much better than those recruits at critical times, so he always endures his stupid behavior.

"Okay, Yu Shan, since you don't think it's right, I think you can continue to observe here, I'm going to go to Qiao Xian to talk about the battle plan."

After saying that. Makarov got off the watchtower, and he didn't want to continue talking to Yu Shan, an idiot.

"Qiao Yan, what do you think," Makarov saw Qiao Xi as soon as he came down. Stopped him directly.

"Well, I don't think of any ideas yet, but this is the place we are most familiar with, and I think we should be able to use the terrain to fight. Are you right? ”

Qiao Yan said as he observed the surrounding terrain, this place was indeed not a strange place for them. It can be said that they are still very familiar with it, when they were the instructors of the Liangguang New Army, they once led the first batch of people here for practical training.

If I am not mistaken, Qiao Xian and they exterminated a group of bandits in this vicinity, and there were many bandits in that group, and Shen Youlong also recognized the importance of the new army because of this.

In the process of suppressing bandits, Shen Youlong began to secretly carry out the army reform plan, which led to the later Liangguang New Army.

Qiao Yan said that this is not a stranger, using the terrain here to fight, this is indeed a plan, the Qing army on the opposite side has at least 20,000 people, Azig knows that the division of troops can catch the Australians off guard, because only in this way can the Australians' troops not be able to concentrate on fighting, so the combat effectiveness will be reduced, but they are different They have a numerical advantage, which can just improve their combat effectiveness.

However, Qiao Yan's unit has only one company's strength, and the new army of Liangguang is at most a battalion together, and at present, the battalion of the new army of Liangguang is completely taken over by Makarov.

That is to say, a force of less than 1,000 people has to fight against 20,000 people, and the other party is also a unit equipped with thermal weapons, which is different from sniping Zhang Xianzhong here at the beginning, Zhang Xianzhong was not equipped with any weapons at that time, so this battle is difficult to fight.

But at the same time, not to mention that there is no certainty of victory at all, after all, there are more than 20,000 people on the other side, and the real elite is actually more than 1,000 people, and the rest are basically the army of the former Ming Dynasty, how these people fight, Qiao Xi and others are hi deeply understood, except for the Guanning army, the others are indeed not very good.

As long as the overseer team of more than 1,000 people is defeated, in fact, the 20,000 people will be successfully solved.

The key is how to do it, which is still a difficult problem, Qiao Yan looked at Makarov and frowned, saying that he really hadn't thought about it yet.

Yu Shan, who had been observing at this time, suddenly walked down the watchtower, in fact, he had already heard the conversation between the two above.

"Qiao Yan, I said that your head is embroidered, this matter is easy to solve, we should lure the enemy into our fortifications to consume the opponent's strength to the greatest extent, this fortification, I think they can't break through at all, as long as our weapons and ammunition are sufficient."

Yu Shan's words are right, this fortification only needs to have enough medicine and ammunition, and no one can really break through, after all, the barbed wire fence of the dark fort and these things in the trenches, it is estimated that the Manchu army on the opposite side has seen it once, and it has never seen this kind of thing before.

Although there is such a powerful fortification, but the order given by the command and operation department is to let them destroy the other party, so this is what has always made Qiao Yan and Makarov more difficult, if they just defend, they are sure to stick to the ground here, and they will not have this certainty of attacking and destroying them, after all, the other party has too many people.

However, Yu Shan's words also reminded the two that if they could lure the other party into the fortifications, it would be much easier to destroy the other party, but they didn't know that the Qing army on the opposite side was also conducting a discussion battle against them, and the other party had the same idea, which was to lead them outside the fortifications to fight, so that they could eliminate the Australian army with superior forces.
