Chapter 2 Chapter 7 Dingding Section 60 Curtain call
readx;
Yanjing's silence did not affect the changes in the situation in other places, Tielongping's first division had been targeted by Zhebu's third ranger regiment scouts shortly after leaving the city, but Zhebu did not immediately launch an offensive, according to Cui Shuai's arrangement, the first division was already in the bag, in the absence of other armies to respond, Yanjing to Cangzhou this more than 100 miles will be the first division's Yama Road, they will never be able to step on this more than 100 miles, they must choose the right time to mobilize the two divisions stationed in the suburbs of Cangzhou to annihilate this battle is truly perfect。 Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 If it is too far away from Cangzhou City, the Cangzhou garrison will not dare to take this risk in the current situation, so it can only be close enough to Cangzhou City to bite the first division to provide conditions for the encirclement and annihilation of the main army, and only in this case can the real purpose of this battle be truly achieved.
Tie Longping didn't understand this, the mobility of the Western Xinjiang Rangers is world-famous, the distance from Yanjing to Cangzhou is not far and not close, and it takes two days to catch up with it, but these two days are two extremely difficult days. Although Tie Longping ostensibly told Yusuf that he would set off at dawn, in fact, as soon as the city guards entered the city, the first division had already begun to move outwards one after another, and it was the best time to take advantage of this chaotic opportunity to quickly return north. He knew that the Western Xinjiang Rangers might have been waiting near Cangzhou to find the traces of his first division, but he had no choice, the situation in Cangzhou was already in danger, he knew that this was a road full of thorns, but he couldn't move forward bravely.
The rapid march without any hindrance for two consecutive days made Tie Longping feel extremely surprised, seeing that the capital city of Cangzhou was in sight, and it was only less than 30 miles to rush to the city of Cangzhou, could it be that the Western Frontier Army really ignored all this? Tie Longping did not believe that Cui Wenxiu would be so careless, even if hundreds of thousands of rangers entered the territory of Beiping to sweep away, they still had enough troops to deal with themselves, but the situation in front of him was a reality, but Tie Longping had a hunch that maybe a change would appear in this short thirty miles. On the one hand, he kept urging his army to speed up, and on the other hand, Tie Longping also sent scouts to expand the search area, striving to find out the situation earlier, although deep down he hoped that nothing would happen.
But the desperate looks of the scouts who returned soon brought Tie Longping back to reality, what should have come is always coming, and the people of Western Xinjiang chose to officially launch a siege near the Cangzhou capital city, which seems to be playing a more vicious idea, Tie Longping has realized Cui Wenxiu's intentions, and the trick of encircling the point to send reinforcements has actually been used here, and even in order to mobilize the Cangzhou garrison, the other party actually dared to put himself thirty miles away from the Cangzhou capital city before dedicating himself, which is not a big bet.
Although the capital city of Cangzhou is in front of him, reason tells Tie Longping that he can't go any further, he can only form a formation on the spot, otherwise the rangers from all directions will immediately put their first division in a desperate situation, and the infantry will not be able to compete with the rangers without gathering into a phalanx, let alone in a state of movement, it is even more self-defeating.
For the performance of the first division, Zhebu can't help but admit that Cui Shuai's previous reminder is quite reasonable, this is a force that should not be underestimated, although the rangers of his own corps occupy all advantages, but almost in such a short time when he adjusts his deployment, the other party can immediately have a formation response to the surname, its speed and efficiency make Zhebu breathtaking, and almost can't find the slightest loophole, no wonder it can boast of being the first army in the world, it is really a bit of real ability. Fortunately, Cui Shuai has made his purpose clear, don't provoke easily when he can't find a breakthrough, for a mixed division like the First Division, which has both offense and defense, it is not easy to eat it easily, and you need to have enough patience to deal with it.
The three 10,000 cavalry teams immediately unfolded according to the strategy that had been drawn up, one 10,000 cavalry team was responsible for guarding the periphery to prevent the enemy from receiving the enemy from the outside, and the other 10,000 cavalry team was divided into several groups of attack groups to launch small-scale offensives around the opponent to attack and harass the opponent in turn, forcing the other side to be in a highly tense situation all the time, while the other 10,000 cavalry team maintained a posture of entering the battle at any time, so that the other side did not dare to relax at all, as long as there was a loophole, they could immediately launch a surprise attack on the battlefield, in order to obtain the ideal results, such an arrangement made the entire first division always under a high-pressure situation, neither able to get out nor able to get the necessary restIf this situation continues, the 1st Division will hardly have a chance of winning.
The rangers who rushed around their division almost made Tie Longping grit his teeth with hatred, what was the idea of these guys Tie Longping knew very well, constantly harassing and assaulting, this kind of asymmetrical battle was almost what these nomadic cavalry who rolled on horseback on the grassland were the best at, and this was exactly the most painful of the standard infantry division of their first division, the lack of mobility and the lack of counterattack strength made their division fall into a passive situation from the beginning, and he couldn't even find a chance to counterattack, so he could only deal with it passively, and Tie Longping could even be sureAt this time, Cui Wenxiu was only afraid that the Third Army in his hands was advancing here in an all-round way to prepare to encircle and annihilate his own division, but he seemed to have no choice, he couldn't walk if he wanted to, he couldn't hold it if he wanted to, could this be the end of his division?
He didn't know what His Royal Highness King Yan, who was thirty miles away, thought about it, although there were three divisions stationed in Cangzhou City, but the morale and combat effectiveness were far from being comparable to the Western Xinjiang Army, was still capable of rescuing his own division under such circumstances? Tie Longping didn't believe that it would only fall into a larger encirclement of the Western Xinjiang Army, maybe Cui Wenxiu was fighting this idea.
Tie Longping guessed correctly, at this time Situ Tai was also full of sorrow, Tie Longping's first division was intercepted by the rangers of Western Xinjiang less than thirty miles away from Cangzhou City, even if Situ Tai was not very proficient in military affairs, he also saw that this was a trap, and this trap also made it clear that he wanted to drill into it, if he did not rescue the first division he cherished the most in time, then even if this division was strong in combat, I was afraid that it would be swallowed alive in the Western Xinjiang Army, which was the best at winning more and less, and once it rushed, the powerful ranger troops of the Western Xinjiang Army were afraid that the galloping troops would become the second division of Tie Longping, which is undoubtedly an endless abyss, no matter how many troops you throw, it will be swallowed up.
Situ Tai, who was standing in front of the mirror, suddenly found that the haggard and withered man in the mirror was actually himself, he couldn't believe his eyes, once upon a time, the prince of the empire, who boasted of his graceful and elegant bearing, had become like this? Standing in front of the mirror in a daze, Situ Tai's heart turned around, could it be that all this he pursued was just to get a decent step down that he didn't care about at all, could this be the result of his own painstaking efforts for so many years?
Seeing a handful of hair falling out on the pillow, Situ Tai had long lost the pride and courage in his heart, and suddenly he even felt that all this was so boring, even if he won this battle, what could he do, wasn't it in exchange for a road to the wilderness like Situ Biao? Fifty steps and a hundred steps, did he really fall into a situation where he needed to use these means to save face? Infinite sorrow plagued Situ Tai, and for a while he thought a little crazy, the first hero who had crisscrossed the entire northern and eastern parts of the empire had now ended up in such a field, did he still want to seek a so-called decency, what kind of decency could cover everything he had lost? When the news of Yanjing's change of banner finally reached the ears of Situ Tai, who had been sullen, Situ Tai pushed away all affairs and locked himself in his room, maybe it was time for the curtain call, and the superfluous people were no longer suitable to appear on the stage where he should not appear.
When Cui Wenxiu, who had just had time to rush to Cangzhou City, had not had time to arrange everything, he was stunned by a series of things. The gate of Cangzhou has been opened, and Situ Tai's envoy, Zhao Chenghuai, who is known as one of the four heavenly kings of the Northern Army, is already waiting for him, Cui Wenxiu even wonders if the other party is trying to use any delaying tactics, but when Zhao Chenghuai unreservedly told all this, all that was left for Cui Wenxiu was silence.
After explaining everything that had happened, Situ Tai became a monk in Cangzhou, who had been a monk for a long time. Before becoming a monk, he entrusted everything to his last henchman, Zhao Chenghuai, and all of this was only one request, to be kind to the Northern Army that had followed him for many years.
All this came so suddenly, even Zhao Chenghuai, who introduced all this to Cui Wenxiu, didn't know what it was that made his sovereign sad, and he decided to leave his home and retreat after staying in the room all day, although Zhao Chenghuai also admitted that the situation had collapsed to the point of no return, but he still didn't expect that his sovereign would end it all in this way.
Cui Wenxiu couldn't decide the fate of Situ Tai, who was already a monk, and then what needed to be done immediately could not be delayed, with Zhao Chenghuai giving the order to lay down his arms, whether it was the three divisions of the Northern Army inside and outside Cangzhou City or the garrison of Beiping City, as well as the Tielongping Division who wanted to die in battle and seek fame, they all had to put down their weapons under a tragic feeling, and the dawn of peace finally came to the north of the entire empire, and everyone thought that there would be a bloody battle of life and death to really break it, but all this was solved because of Situ Tai's bizarre monkhood, and the northern country that had been boiling for too long finally ushered in the long-lost peace and vitality。
