Chapter 621: The Special Combat Team Dispatches Again
The Taiping Army was already in control, and it was no longer a problem to take the pass, but who would have thought that this halfway way would actually make a trip to bite the gold, which ruined the good things of the Taiping Army, and returned the Assam Pass to the British and Indian Army.
The source of this qiē change was Wallace and the 200,000 reinforcements he brought with him.
This guy also came at the right time, it's a god plot.
And with the change in the balance of power between the two sides, if the Taiping army wants to take the pass, the difficulty is not just a little higher.
In desperation, Tian Xiaoer and others could only temporarily withdraw their troops, and Rong Tu would come to take the customs after discussion.
At the same time, Tian Xiaoer telegraphed Huang Xu to know about the situation.
In this way, the matter of taking the customs was suspended, because the Taiping army had to negotiate a good strategy before they could continue to take the customs.
In the days that followed, the top brass of the Taiping Army was thinking hard about good strategies, hoping that they could be cleared as soon as possible.
And when Tian Xiaoer was distressed, Huang Xu personally led the special combat team to arrive, and he came to help Tian Xiaoer and others.
And Tian Xiaoer and the others were overjoyed when they heard that Huang Xu personally led the special combat team to come, and the shadow that was originally cast over everyone's heads by Wallace led the army to help them was also swept away, and everyone in the Daping Army was full of confidence in Shun Lì again.
It can be seen that Huang Xu can be called the source of the spiritual strength of the Taiping Army.
After Huang Xu arrived, he immediately inquired about the relevant situation.
Tian Xiaoer made a detailed report.
After hearing this, Huang Xu thought for a moment, and then dismissed everyone, leaving only Tian Xiaoer and Dongfang Bufu, the two main generals, intending to discuss with them how to take the city.
"Dongfang, what do you think we should do?" Huang Xu asked Dongfang with a smile.
He asked Dongfang Bufu first this time, and his words seemed to have a deep meaning.
"Big brother, let the younger brother lead the special combat team to sneak into the city. Cut off that Wallace with a knife, and then cut off the heads of those important generals of the Anglo-Indian coalition army one by one, hehe, at that time, look at how these Anglo-Indian coalition forces are still against us. "The East is not confused.
Although he said it very casually, this idea has actually been in his heart for a long time.
As the saying goes. The snake has no head, no, the bird has no head, it doesn't fly, as long as the generals who command the battle are beheaded, can the Anglo-Indian coalition still be chaotic.
This method of Dongfang is not confused.
And Huang Xu was a little stunned when he heard Dongfang's words, but he was very happy in his heart, after so many years of experience. This brother of his has really grown a lot, and he knows how to use his brain first in many things, although some words are still so coarse, but the truth is very unusual, Huang Xu is secretly happy for him.
In fact, what Dongfang Bufu said is exactly what Huang Xu thought, and now the Anglo-Indian alliance army in the Guannai has reached 300,000 people. However, the Taiping army used only 400,000 men and horses to attack the city, and the enemy defended the city by fortifying it. occupies a considerable advantage, not to mention 400,000, even if the Taiping army is attacking the city with 600,000 people, it is difficult to have a chance of winning.
And in this case, if you play cards according to common sense, I'm afraid it won't work.
But. The Assam Pass was the only way for the Western Route Army to pass through the western front of India, and if they wanted to go forward and sweep the western front of India, they had to clear this pass, otherwise, they would have to go home.
So. For the sake of the big picture, even if there are great difficulties, they must win this level.
And since the avenue is impassable, then take the trail and take special measures to take the pass, the trail in Huang Xu's heart is the special combat team.
This is a sharp weapon in the hands of Huang Xu and the Taiping Army, with it, everything is possible.
And if they want to use special combat teams, then they must use them carefully, because when Tian Xiaoer just arrived at Assam Pass, he had already used the method of surprise attack once, but the result was not successful, but it aroused the vigilance of the British and Indian troops.
Therefore, if you do it again this time, you have to use some skills.
And Dongfang was not puzzled to see that Huang Xu did not express his position, but only meditated on his own, and couldn't help but be a little nervous, he thought that he had said the wrong thing again, which caused Huang Xu to be a little unhappy, and he was thinking about whether he wanted to find an opportunity to explain to Huang Xu, so as not to cause Huang Xu's misunderstanding.
However, just as he was thinking wildly, Huang Xu opened Chrysostom again.
"Xiao Er, do you think the Oriental method is feasible?" Huang Xu asked Tian Xiaoer again.
Since Tian Xiaoer and Dongfang Bufu are leading the same army, they have to agree with each other, although Huang Xu agrees with Dongfang Bufu's method in his heart, but he also wants to listen to what Tian Xiaoer says, only if everyone has the same idea, Huang Xu can finally make a decision.
"Big brother, the younger brother also means the same, I originally planned to ask the eldest brother for instructions, but I didn't expect the eldest brother to come so quickly." Tian Xiaoer obviously agrees with Dongfang Bufu's opinion.
This is basically the last straw, and there is nothing else Tian Xiaoer can do.
And Huang Xu was also very happy when he heard this.
This brother is single-minded, its profits are cut off, there is nothing difficult in the world, but I am afraid of people with hearts, there is nothing that cannot be done, only things that cannot be imagined, since the current brothers have the same opinion, Huang Xu has reason to believe that they can successfully raid Assam Pass.
"Okay, then this matter is decided, and the soldiers are fast, let's dispatch people now, and act as soon as it gets dark." Huang Xu is resolute and authentic.
Since the special combat team is used, it is necessary to surprise the enemy, and it is better to hit the day than to choose the day, and the weather is good today, Huang Xu feels that this is a good day.
And Huang Xu said that he had done it, Tian Xiaoer and Dongfang were not confused, of course they had no opinion.
So, Huang Xu personally assigned the task.
He and Dongfang Bufu led the special combat team to infiltrate the Assam Pass, and then acted on the opportunity, while Tian Xiaoer commanded the army to prepare outside the pass, once they succeeded, Tian Xiaoer was responsible for commanding the army to seize the city gate and quickly enter the city.
And Tian Xiaoer and Dongfang were not puzzled to see Huang Xu's arrangement, and couldn't help but glance at each other, they knew that their eldest brother had itchy hands again, they originally wanted to persuade them, but as soon as they wanted Huang Xu's temper, they gave up.
The emperor is going, can they stop it, the only thing they can do is to let Dongfang not be confused and pay more attention, and don't make any trouble.
The plan was decided, and Tian Xiaoer went out to dispatch people.
After some deliberation, the final plan was finally released.
Tian Xiaoer arranged it like this:
Bao Ping'an commanded the military power of the army and commanded in the center with Tian Xiaoer.
Cui Min and Lu Qingtian were responsible for seizing the four gates.
Yu Yilong and Duan Yihu were responsible for seizing grain, grass and ordnance land.
Li Xiucheng and Chen Yucheng were responsible for the comprehensive slaughter of the Anglo-Indian coalition army after the city was broken.
Luo Xuan, Lin Fengxiang, and Li Kaifang are responsible for maintaining law and order in the city after the city is broken.
Li Shixian and Wei Jun followed Huang Xu and Tian Xiaoer to act together.
After the allocation of people and horses is completed, everyone will prepare their own horses, and then recuperate, just waiting for the last moment to come.
At the same time, Huang Xu and Dongfang Bufu are also preparing, they are the protagonists of today, whether this battle can succeed or not, a large part of the hope falls on them.
And the time passed quickly, and night soon came.
When night fell, Huang Xu and Dongfang Bufu led the special combat team towards Assam Pass. (To be continued......)
