Chapter 181: The Name of the Fox
The use of the two tactics of transcending shooting and inverting the bead curtain made Rommel's prestige reach a peak, and the soldiers of the Duchy of Mojiang and the soldiers of the 512th Regiment were all admired.
After the end of the war.
The overlord exclaimed at Rommel: "Convinced, I am completely convinced, no wonder Brigade Commander Ouyang Ou named you Rommel to come over!" ”
Zhao Gang also said with a smile: "Before the start of this battle, if anyone told me that with thousands of soldiers and tens of thousands of civilians who had never been on the battlefield, I would definitely not believe it if I could defeat more than 30,000 people of the Lan Army coalition army in the first battle, but now the result is in front of me, so I have to believe it!" ”
"Yes!"
Monk Wei nodded and said, "This battle is enjoyable, and it is a pleasure!" ”
Zhang Dabiao echoed: "I defeated more than 30,000 enemy troops in the first battle, and it was also a frontal defeat, this is the first time I have fought so heartily!" ”
Immediately, everyone present highly praised Rommel's commanding ability and marveled at Rommel's god!
"Huh!"
Rommel laughed: "If only you didn't blame me for not telling you everything before." ”
Blame?
Immediately, everyone present burst into laughter again.
Indeed, as Rommel said, in the course of the battle, especially in the early battle, in the face of the large-scale charge of tens of thousands of troops of the Lan army, the side did not make any response, and fought fiercely with tens of thousands of enemies in an ultra-short distance. At that time, there were indeed many people who scolded Rommel for his incompetence and for his stupidity.
However, it has now turned out that it was not Rommel who was stupid, but that they did not understand Rommel's tactical intentions.
"In fact, if we win this battle, we are very lucky."
Rommel said slowly: "First of all, this is a desert area with a harsh environment, and the slow transmission of information has led to the enemy's miscalculation of the strength of our army, which directly led to a series of tactical mistakes in their later period. ”
"Secondly, the Lan army coalition is not monolithic, especially the 20,000 troops of the Houjiang Principality and the Former Xinjiang Principality, which are basically coerced by the Lan army, and they don't have much will to fight."
"And after the war, the commander of the Lan army, Marquis Seth, let the 20,000 troops of the former and rear Xinjiang principalities be used as artillery fire, which is the most deadly. Otherwise, if the 1st Division of the Lan Army Praetorian Guard directly exchanged fire with our army, the side that would lose in the end would definitely be us. ”
When the words fell, everyone present suddenly sighed.
Rejoice.
As Rommel said, if it were not for the armies of the Principalities of Former and Rear Frontiers, as the assault troops, it would not have been possible to use tactics beyond shooting and inverted bead blinds.
"This battle, win lucky!"
For a time, many people made such an exclamation.
But.
The former commander of the 101st Regiment of the Tang Army was dominant, but he shouted in disbelief, he felt that Rommel was low-key and deliberately modest.
One day in the months that followed, Zhao Gang also asked Rommel this question.
- Was that battle elaborate by Rommel, or was it luck?
Rommel replied: A commander who puts all his hopes in luck will never become a great commander. In the victory of any war, although there is luck, the main thing is careful design.
Luck?!
Rommel never believed in this thing!
He believes in his own abilities!
In his words: "If you can't accurately judge how the enemy will arrange his troops and how to use tactics, then such a commander can only be mediocre!" ”

Soon.
The list of casualties and the data on the casualties of the enemy troops were also roughly calculated.
In this battle, more than 1,500 soldiers and more than 600 civilians were killed. The number of enemy soldiers killed was as high as 4,000;
As for the number of enemy soldiers killed and wounded, it is even more incalculable.
The most important thing is that when the Lan army retreated in a panic, they left behind a large number of materials and weapons and equipment that had not yet had time to be withdrawn. More than 9,000 rifles, more than 30 light and heavy machine guns, more than 80 boxes of grenades, and a large number of other supplies and equipment.
In particular, the number of captured artillery pieces of various types amounted to more than 40 pieces.
Although the vast majority of them are slightly less powerful mortars, there are also infantry guns and heavy artillery.
"It's gone, this battle is really done!"
Monk Wei danced excitedly, and the others around him couldn't remain calm and calm.
It is impossible not to be excited when faced with so many seizures!
After the excitement, the overlord proposed to return to the division to recuperate, but Rommel refused.
"The enemy's defeat is the moment when the general has no will to fight, the soldiers have no will to fight, and the combat effectiveness is at its bottom. Therefore, what we have to do now is not to go back to the division to rest and accept the applause and flowers of the people, but to take advantage of the victory and pursue it! ”
"In one fell swoop, wipe out the Principality of Former Xinjiang and the Principality of Rear Frontier, drive all the troops of the 1st Division of the Lan Army Praetorian Guard out of the Uurith Desert, and completely stabilize the battle situation in the Uurith Desert!"
Rommel's boldness immediately and deeply affected everyone.
Early the next morning.
The allied forces of the Tang Army all went out, and the goal was directly aimed at the Principality of Qianjiang!
~~~~
Former Principality.
Hearing the news that Rommel was leading a large army, Grand Duke Moritz of the former Principality of Xinjiang was frightened at that time, and the whole person almost did not fall from the throne.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
"Invite the Marquis of Seth to come immediately, no, no, no, I'll go myself."
Soon.
Grand Duke Moritz of the Former Principality rushed to the garrison of the 1st Division of the Salt Army Praetorian Guard and asked the Marquis of Seth to help them resist Rommel's attack.
Grand Duke Moritz cried: "Marquis of Seth, you must help me this time, help my former Principality, otherwise my Former Principality will be finished!" ”
In his cognition, Marquis Seth and Lan Jun would definitely not give up on them.
It will definitely help them defend against the Don Army!
"Humph!"
Marquis Seth snorted coldly and roared: "The 1st Division of the Praetorian Guard of our Lan Army, most of the weapons and equipment have been lost, how can I help you?" ”
"No, no, no!"
Grand Duke Moritz said anxiously: "You can't do this. ”
Marquis of Seth said angrily: "If you don't do this, then what should I do?" ”
In the end, no matter how much the Grand Duke Moritz pleaded, the Marquis of Seth refused to help him defend against the Don army, and not only that, but he also forcibly demanded a large amount of supplies from the Grand Duke of Moritz.
That night, Marquis Seth led all the officers and soldiers under his command to evacuate!
"Humph! There are more than 30,000 people in the Tang Army, and they are all elites, if I stay there, how can I please them? It's too late to leave! Marquis Seth said coldly.

Another day has passed.
Rommel led a large army to the capital of the Principality of Qianjiang, preparing to wipe out the power of the Principality of Qianjiang in one fell swoop.
However, just about half an hour after the battle began, the army of the former principality, which had already been frightened, could not resist Rommel's attack at all and surrendered.
Later, before Rommel led his troops to attack the Houjiang Principality, the Grand Duke of the Houjiang Principality, Grand Duke Cam, personally came to Rommel and surrendered on his knees.
The 512th Regiment once again received a large number of weapons and equipment, and took full control of the two principalities.
Zhao Gang frowned and said, "Commander, why don't you disintegrate the armed forces of the Principality of Former Xinjiang and the Principality of Rear Xinjiang, and let the Principality of Mojiang take over." ”
"Oh? Do you think I should do that? ”
Rommel said with a smile: "What we want is not to help the Principality of Mojiang and unify the Great Ulris Desert, but to have absolute leadership in the Great Ulris Desert with our Tang Army and my 512th Regiment!" ”
Hearing this, Zhao Gang's pupils immediately shrank.
A few days later, Rommel's name of "Fox" and "Desert Fox" completely resounded in the Great Ulris Desert of the 800-mile dry sea!
