Du Wei knows one thing very well, that is, he is far from being a qualified soldier now. In the northwest, he was really too leisurely, he didn't spend a day in the army, he didn't really lead troops, he didn't really march and fight. Even if he experienced two actual battles: the defense of the city of Gilliat, he only had less than a thousand troops under his command, which was just a small cavalry raid, and he didn't have much marching experience in it, besides, the real commander of the army that time was the apprentice of General 205 Little 25 Gaida.

In the second Northwest Army Eradication War, Du Wei sat in the overall coordination.

Therefore, when directly facing these young people who were drawn from military camps all over the mainland, Du Wei was very careful to use his strengths and avoid his weaknesses.

He was named the dean, but he didn't do the real basic marching and fighting classes - and there was no way Camiciro could leave all the lessons to Dewey, who was the Duke of Tulip! You can't expect to use a duke like a coolie.

Therefore, for all the military courses of the Roland Empire's army, such as marching, fighting, infantry and cavalry, marching and cavalry, camping, engaging the enemy, etc., these basic courses, the military high command has transferred some experienced veteran officers to teach.

What Du Wei has to do is to set up a special course separately. This course was called "deduction class" by Dewey.

He had his men make several sets of huge sand tables, the first of which was his own city of Gilliat, which was exactly the terrain around the city of Gilliat.

I made a miniature model, then moved it to the classroom, and told more than 100 students the details of the original defense of the city of Giliath.

However, Du Wei only explained the comparison of the forces of the two sides, as well as the defense strength of the city, the number of steppe cavalry under the city, the location and distribution of the camp, and the morale of the city......

However, Du Wei just doesn't talk about how the process of fighting is done!

"Everybody can use their brains. Imagine if you were the commander-in-chief, how would you accomplish this war! Everyone should think about it! Count all the resources in your hands. And then make a deduction!"

Even, Du Wei did not restrict these officers from deducing. He even specially selected half of the people to think about it by pretending to be the commander of the steppe cavalry!

In the classroom, those officers suddenly became interested!

After all. In times of peace, most of these officers did not experience actual warfare, but were only trained in the local army, and the cāo was ...... Real war, no experience. And this way of using "simulation" to enjoy it, everyone is still very interested.

As a result, one hundred and eight officers, each in groups of two, played the role of the Tulip family army and the steppe army on both sides of the defense of the city of Gilliat. Everyone has one day to familiarize themselves with all the information and get acquainted with the terrain on the sand table. Then a deduction was made......

It's a very jīng 彩!

In fact. In the battle for the defense of Gilliat that Du Wei experienced, the reason why he was able to win was really very lucky! In terms of the combat effectiveness of both sides, there is no doubt. The Tulip family is an absolute disadvantage!

The only factor that won was that he had a Decepticon squad that surpassed this era! That was also the first time that the Decepticon squad appeared on the mainland, and it was also the first time that the "Air Force" appeared on the mainland!

For the first time in the world, "air and ground coordinated operations" were used!

And in this deduction, Du Wei deliberately did not put this condition in the beginning. In other words, the officer who plays the role of the commander of the Tulip family must do it without air power and without gunpowder......

As a result, the process of deduction is strange!

According to the comparison of the military strength of the two sides, as well as the grain and grass, materials, morale, and so on, factors have been fully considered. These officers came up with a thousand strange ways of fighting. For example, some officers fought the defense of the city of Gilliat, and fought a long-lasting battle to defend the city walls. Almost all the soldiers in the city were used on the city walls, relying on the city walls and consuming troops with the opponent.

In the end, the slaves in the city were also organized into forces to resist in the city, relying on a few officers to arbitrate and calculate the proportion of losses, and so on, and came to a conclusion: The city of Gilliat would definitely not be able to hold it! The other side had 20,000 troops, while the Tulip family had less than 1,000 people in the city! And most of the slaves had no combat experience at all! It was difficult for the slaves who took up arms to pose much threat to the soldiers of the steppe Jīngrui.

Some officers simply put forward the idea: since the steppe people are raiding, then they must not be able to spend a long time, they can only spend time with them!

In the street fighting, the cavalry of the steppe people lost the wide terrain and could not carry out the advantage of a group charge, while the soldiers of the Tulip family could rely on the houses, streets, buildings, and everything else in the city to resist and disturb.

Other officers made full use of the hundreds of cavalry reinforcements led by Du Wei outside the city! Some officers even came up with all kinds of strange cavalry sāo harassment tactics! Divided the hundreds of cavalry outside the city into many squads to harass the steppe people under the city! The meaning of this proposition is very clear: Anyway, our cavalry has only a few hundred people, and a few hundred people will not have any effect at all if they charge against 20,000 people. Then simply disperse, play sāo harassment tactics, and use the mobility of the cavalry to sāo harass the steppe people, such as pretending to feint day and night to make the enemy tired, as well as poisoning the water source, sneaking up on the opponent's scouts, etc......

But there are also opponents!

Someone immediately and unceremoniously pointed out the error of this method, because if it was more mobile than the cavalry, the iron cavalry of the steppe people was stronger than the emperor [**] in this respect!

It is also easy to disperse a few teams, and then each of them to eliminate these sāo disturbances

Because everyone thinks that the cavalry of the steppe people. More maneuver than the Imperial cavalry!

There are also people who fantasize about "cutting off food" - as soon as this practice is proposed, Du Wei can't help but laugh.

Obviously, these officers have a good foundation, they have read a lot of military books and combat regulations of this era, and they have enough imagination, but the biggest flaw is ...... Not pragmatic! That is, no real combat experience!

Du Wei immediately pointed out that it was absolutely impossible to cut off grain! Because the 20,000 iron horsemen of the steppe people had no so-called "grain road" at all!

They didn't have a food convoy! When the steppe army was fighting. The only burden was the small amount of forage they carried, which was almost the only burden of the steppe army (because the war horses could not only eat grass in the wilderness). War horses must eat hay, otherwise they will quickly lose their combat effectiveness). The steppe people's methods of warfare have always been brutal: they carry a small amount of soldiers' rations. A small amount of hay to keep the army's assault planes powered when supplies are needed. Just "supply on the spot", the so-called supply on the spot is to burn, kill and loot!!

Of course, if the army of the steppe people goes out on a large-scale expedition, they will not have any "grain route", and they are accustomed to driving a large herd of cattle and sheep directly behind the army!

This deduction lasted for three days, and as a result, almost all the local officers who played the side of the Tulip family completely lost to the side that played the steppe people in the deduction. Among them, if you can make your own side hold out for more than ten days in the deduction battle, you are already considered to be the best.

In the first round, the best result was the Yalor Knight!

Although he was also a junior officer.

But after all, unlike his classmates who visited the sick on paper, he had actual combat experience, and he had experienced the city of Gilliat firsthand. And. He also has no shortage of courage and imagination!

When playing the commander of the Tulip family's army, he played a lot of tricks. He did not put the slaves on the city walls. Rather, it symbolizes xìng, and after the army in his hand resisted on the city wall for three days, he withdrew all the troops to the city and gave the city wall to the other party!

He skillfully arranged a street battle and a war of attrition, using all the buildings and facilities in the city, and the troops he arranged were very reasonable, almost consuming the opponent's troops layer by layer, making the opponent's advance faster and slower! Moreover, he used most of the slave formations in the street battles in the city! His reason is very good: if you go to the city wall to defend in front, a slave with a weapon will definitely not be able to defeat the enemy's jīng sharp soldiers!

But in the case of street fighting, the slave will have the advantage of being familiar with the terrain! This advantage will at least close some of the gap between the combat power of the two sides! Although this advantage is small, the commander of the inferior side must make full use of all the advantages he has!

Moreover, he did not blindly let the hundreds of cavalry reinforcements outside the city simply disturb them. Instead, he concentrated his forces to launch a feint attack on the steppe people one by one! Every time, he did not entangle with the other party, and every time he would use the courage of a strong man to break his wrist, he would leave a team of people to break the back, and let most of the cavalry quickly leave the battlefield - this method made his cavalry less and less, but it successfully delayed the opponent's time!

"The enemy has occupied the city wall, and it is necessary to send troops to guard it! In the street fighting, one by one, one by one, one important building after another, it is also necessary to send people to guard it! In this way, the more they advance, the less mobile troops they will have! I will not defend every place, but deliberately relax a few places for the other side to occupy, but I can achieve the effect of dispersing the opponent's forces!"

Alor said this in his final summary – even though he failed in the end. But he managed to drag the steppe people for a full eighteen days! This is the best result in this deduction!

Of course, in Du Wei's opinion, under normal circumstances, if the defenders could drag on for eighteen days, it would almost be considered a success—because the steppe people were assaulting! Eighteen days was enough for the emperor in the rear to mobilize a large number of reinforcements.

It's just that in that defense of Gilliat, the Northwest Army besieged Loulan City, so that Du Wei could not mobilize all his troops to aid Gilliat!

The same group of officers who fought against Yaroel suffered enough from Yalor in the deduction, but in the end, the captain appointed by Du Wei was finally recognized by many team members.

It's worth mentioning: Gabry's results are good as well. As a member of a martial arts family, he received a good education from an early age and ...... He also had been an apprentice with that old fox in the blue ocean for a while!

What made Du Wei's eyes light up was that Gabrie was deducing, and even made full use of the climate factor!

He also cleverly used one condition: dark night!!

After all, this era is not the era of developed science and technology in Du Wei's previous life, the production level and people's living conditions in this era are not good, from the perspective of human physique, most people can only eat enough, but in terms of nutritional intake, most people are extremely unscientific in nutrition - after all, the standard of living is like this, it is good to be full!

But this has created a subtle factor: because of malnutrition, most of the people of this era have night blindness! That is, at night, more than half of the soldiers will not see!!

Gabby made the most of this and managed to delay for a few more days.

In general, the officers and cadets were full of interest in this kind of deduction, and they were very excited about this kind of excessively dry command operation.
