Chapter 135: Open the door and release the wolf
The secret training base of the mixed battalion was located next to a forest behind the Hongshankou fortress, a hastily built makeshift camp, many of which were not even fenced, and the space was not spacious, barely enough to accommodate two or three thousand people.
Said to be training, in fact, it is just a short period of military discipline education, brainwashing, how to correctly use grenades and other short small training, these tribal warriors have grown up on horseback since childhood, everyone has practiced good riding and archery, is a natural warrior, there is no need for any training, and time does not allow, what Zhu Jian has to do is to equip them with strong and fat good war horses, excellent riding bows and a large number of arrows and scimitars or something, grenades are specially prepared, a little serious practice can be used.
The focus is on brainwashing work, Zhu Jian can't be on the scene to operate, he can only be remotely controlled in the distant Beijing, he wrote a lot of long-winded things in the secret letter to Li Xin, if it was for other generals to see it inexplicably and collapsed, but Li Xin was defeated by him after all, a lot of advanced modern warfare concepts, in general, he can still understand, and he also understands that the Son of Heaven has good intentions, so he replaced the Son of Heaven to brainwash these tribal soldiers.
These tribal warriors were all born in small tribes, forcibly annexed by the Jin Empire, and if they did not surrender to the Shun Clan, they would slaughter the tribe, and all the soldiers' parents, elders, brothers and sisters had died at the hands of the Jin soldiers, and their hearts were full of hatred, Li Xin only needed to enhance the sense of hatred in their hearts, so that they felt that the Ming Dynasty was their backer and dependent, and saw the hope that they could avenge the blood hatred, they would be loyal to the Ming Dynasty and fight with the Jin soldiers to the end.
At the same time of brainwashing, it is to carry out education and training in military regulations and military discipline, these tribal soldiers are used to freedom, and it is a little difficult to restrain them, but after eating a few rounds of military sticks, they will remember that in order to stimulate the wolf nature in their hearts, there are some corresponding changes in military regulations and military discipline, which can be much more relaxed than the three new armies, and the premise is one, the military order is like a mountain, and absolute obedience is OK.
Finally, it is to familiarize yourself with and practice the correct use of grenades, practice for a while, and then try to explode two or three more is basically OK, the real focus is on the use of tactics.
The tribal warriors of the mixed battalion are all one person and two horses, and they give full play to the mobility of the cavalry as much as possible, and all kinds of rushing attacks, coming like the wind, going without a shadow, and being elusive, making it difficult for the enemy to capture the whereabouts, determine the direction, mobilize the pursuing enemy to a panic, tired of running, the enemy advances and retreats, the enemy retreats and disturbs, so that the enemy is not at peace, and when there are fewer people, they will work together to encircle and annihilate, this is the so-called guerrilla tactics.
Whether it is an ancient war or a modern war, strong logistical support is absolutely indispensable to fighting a war, but the mixed battalion has no logistical support, except for a small amount of dry food and water that it carries when it sets off, and then it has to find a way to solve it by itself, and the only solution is to feed the war with war.
The Serbs are rarely engaged in production and labor, and they invaded the Ming Dynasty to implement the tactics of fighting to feed the war, burning, killing and looting, which caused very serious damage to the Ming Dynasty.
The so-called combination of grace and power, it is not enough to arouse the hatred of these tribal warriors towards the Jin Empire, in terms of welfare, Zhu Jian is still quite generous to give all kinds of promises and benefits, whether he is an official or something, and there is no tribe in the household registration, all of them are my people of the Ming Dynasty, and the welfare benefits that should be enjoyed can be enjoyed, of course, while enjoying the welfare treatment, he must also assume the obligations and responsibilities that should be assumed.
In addition to sending secret agents with intelligence services to keep in touch, the mixed battalion will also receive some assistance from the Red Gang caravan from time to time, replenish some weapons and ammunition, and deliver the loot to the Red Gang caravan for processing.
In short, according to the requirements of Zhu Jian's strategic policy, the mixed battalion is to roam outside the fortress like a pack of wolves, constantly moving and harassing, stirring the outside of the fortress into a pot of porridge, so that the Jin Empire can not graze and produce with peace of mind, and at the same time severely crack down on those profiteers who forget their righteousness and betray the interests of the empire.
In fact, to put it bluntly, it is a robbery word, when a robber is a big business with a lot of profits, the benefits are so many that you can't count it with your toes, the wind thief makes him earn a lot of money, he can laugh until he wakes up in his dreams, and after compensating himself for the sweetness, how can he forget this very lucrative business.
Zhu Jian's idea is quite beautiful, but there are too many talent gaps, so he can only draw well-performing officers and soldiers from Lu Hongniang's Phoenix Legion and Li Xin's Shenji Battalion to supplement the mixed battalion and set up a shelf.
The chief officer of the mixed battalion is called Lan Tianyi, the original Zhuang wolf soldier from the wolf battalion, who performed well in training, and was quite clever, and comprehended quite quickly, and was directly transferred to the Shenji battalion as a grassroots officer, and showed good command skills in the Hongshankou and other battles.
The mixed battalion is divided into one battalion and two battalions, Lan Tianyi concurrently serves as the commander of the first battalion, and the deputy commander is the tribal warrior Balu, who is brave and good at fighting, and has a high reputation in the tribe, and no one complains about him as the deputy commander.
The commander of the second battalion is called Huang Tiantian, the Zhuang wolf soldier who is also from the wolf battalion, and Lan Tianyi, has performed well in training, and has a certain command talent, and he is also promoted by rockets, and the deputy commander is the tribal warrior Sange, Sange is also a brave tribal warrior, and his reputation in the tribe is also quite large, and he is also suitable for serving as the deputy commander.
During the short training period of the 1,000 tribal warriors, Li Xin also had to follow Zhu Jian's various explanations in the secret letter, teaching the soldiers some details of sign language, contact code language, secret letter code language, etc., and also had to prepare some battle flags of other tribes.
After an urgent and short training of the mixed battalion, on a dark and windy night, the gate of Hongshankou was quietly opened, and the soldiers rode out of the city on high-headed horses, like wolves roaming in the night, and soon disappeared into the vast night.
Li Xin stood at the head of the city, watching the soldiers disappear into the vast night, and let out a long breath, the wolves have been released, and the task that the Son of Heaven has repeatedly explained is also completed, next, what will happen to this group of wolves, it is none of his business, he still has to rush back to the station of the Shenji Battalion, and continue to sweep and sweep the mountain kings who clean up the mountains to make a fortune.
Zhu Jian also breathed a long sigh of relief when he received the news that the wolves had been released, he was still quite looking forward to the mixed battalion, as long as Lan Tianyi conscientiously implemented his guerrilla tactics and brought the cavalry's mobility to the extreme, theoretically it should be able to turn the outside of the fortress upside down and make Huang Taiji a mess.
Speaking of making a fortune, Cao Bianjiao recently made a ruthless fortune.
