Chapter 163: Central Breakthrough
"The triangular defense formation was originally a very common formation, but because the two large battalions on the left and right of the Rakshasa occupied two bronze walls that had been transformed into cavalry hells, the entire triangular defense formation was even more perfect, no matter how we moved, we would be greatly hindered, and it was very difficult to deal with. This Muzichenko has made the general triangular defensive formation come alive!" Ye Ling sighed.
Da Zhao now has 2 million Rouran cavalry, 500,000 Praetorian cavalry, 200,000 lightning iron cavalry, 130,000 Xiao cavalry, a total of more than 2.7 million troops, and 700,000 soldiers in the left army of the Rakshasas, 800,000 soldiers in the right army, 1.6 million soldiers in the Chinese army, and 300,000 soldiers in Burgan, a total of 3.4 million troops.
And the combat effectiveness of the cavalry on the side of Dazhao is higher than that of the Rakshasa soldiers, and the unparalleled cavalry and archery of the Rouran Iron Cavalry are very advantageous for the Rakshasa soldiers, so the advantage in strength is not for the Dazhao Expeditionary Army, and now the headache is that the Rakshasa also occupies the terrain, and the time and place are favorable, at least the time and place are not on the side of the Dazhao Expeditionary Army, so it is impossible to break Bulgan without conspiracy.
Lin Ruofeng recalled all the classic examples of breaking the triangle defense formation in his mind, and the methods of breaking the triangle defense formation were nothing more than the following five ways:
1. Two-point horizontal push method. The expeditionary force divided the entire Great Army into three parts. The Left Army attack team was 1.2 million people, the Right Army attack team was 1.2 million people, and the reserve team was 300,000 people. The left and right armies attacked the left and right camps of the Rakshasa respectively, and formed a strength advantage in the left and right camps of the Rakshasa at the same time, and then attacked the Rakshasa middle army after breaking the two large battalions, and the reserve team used it according to the situation.
The disadvantage is that Rakshasa can concentrate a little support with the strength of the Chinese army, which in turn forms a force advantage. Moreover, the Rakshasa Chinese army is mainly cavalry, and the two large battalions on the left and right of the Rakshasa occupy a favorable position, which is difficult to break in a short time. So this method doesn't work.
2. One-point breakthrough method (front point). The Great Zhao Expeditionary Force concentrated on the attack team of 2 million people and the reserve force of 700,000 people. Concentrate all your forces to attack the left camp of the Rakshasa or, form an absolute advantage, and after breaking the left camp, sweep the right camp of the Rakshasa and the middle army one by one.
Disadvantages, if you can't quickly solve the left camp of the Rakshasas, you will be counterattacked by the right camp of the Rakshasa and the Chinese army at the same time and fall into a dangerous situation. The Rakshasa army is almost exclusively cavalry. So it's not advisable either.
3. Focus on the attack method. The Left Route Army of the Great Zhao Expeditionary Force had an attack team of 1.8 million, a right Route Army attack team of 600,000 people, and a reserve force of 300,000 people. In the main direction of attack, the attack team of the Left Route Army took the left battalion with superior forces, and the attack team of the right Route Army in the second attack direction attracted the Rakshasa headquarters with a feint, and the reserve team followed the attack team of the Left Route Army to fight together after the left battalion was resolved. Attack the Rakshasa Army.
Disadvantages, whether the feint attack fails or is detected will affect the situation of the battle. This operation is still somewhat feasible, to be determined!
4. Central breakthrough method. Party B, the Left Route Army Attack Team of the Great Zhao Expeditionary Army is 400,000 people, the Right Route Army attack team is 500,000 people, the Middle Route Army attack team is 1.6 million people, and the reserve team is 200,000 people.
The disadvantage is that it is very easy to be annihilated by the three-point combined attack of the left and right battalions of the Rakshasa and the Chinese army, but this is very feasible for the current strength of the Great Zhao Expeditionary Army, and it can avoid many obstacles to attacking the left and right battalions.
5. A little breakthrough method (interspersed with tactics). The Left Route Army of the Great Zhao Expeditionary Force had 1.2 million people, 600,000 interspersed detachments, and 600,000 people from the Right Route Army. Reserve 300,000 people. The Left Route Army attack the left camp of the Rakshasa with superior forces, and the interspersed detachment inserted between the left and right camps, and moved backwards to cut off the connection between the Rakshasa Central Army and its left battalion. The attack team of the Right Route Army feinted to attack the right camp of the Rakshasa and cut off the connection between the left camp and the right camp of the Rakshasa . After the left battalion succeeded, the reserve team was put into battle in the left battalion, and cooperated with the left battalion attack team to attack the Rakshasa army and take the Rakshasa army. Interspersed with the movement of the detachment between the two points of the right battalion and the central army, cutting off the connection between the right battalion and the two points of the central army. Then, after destroying the Rakshasa army, he will destroy the right battalion in turn.
Disadvantages, the coordination requirements between the teams are high, and it is not easy to achieve effective cooperation, especially the interspersed detachments are more demanding, but the Great Zhao Expeditionary Force has been fighting under Ye Lingyan for a long time. It belongs to a veteran of a hundred battles, and there is no big problem with the interspersed tasks with the Xiao Cavalry and a part of the Rouran Iron Cavalry. This method is also possible.
Among the five methods, Lin Ruofeng felt that the key attack method, The central breakthrough tactics and a little breakthrough tactics are very feasible, but Lin Ruofeng still tends to the central breakthrough strategy, why, because the central breakthrough strategy is also the only one in the centralized strategy that does not need to be attacked, since the tragic siege battle in Bayan Zhuoer City, Lin Ruofeng has some shadows for this kind of battle, so he would rather choose to fight with the Rakshasa army on the plain than challenge those fortifications on the left and right two camps, of course, the Rakshasa army will definitely have obstacles such as antlers, but relatively speaking, it is still relatively few, and the expeditionary force can completely use Xu Huang's method of breaking Xiangfan, the Chinese army should not directly attack the Rakshasa Chinese army, first feint in the left and right camps to lure out the Rakshasa Chinese army, and then the Chinese army directly inserted it between the left and right camps of the Rakshasa and the Rakshasa Central Army fought a decisive battle.
Without antlers and strong trap obstacles, those cavalry of the Rakshasa Central Army could not be the opponent of these elite cavalry of Da Zhao, and when the time came, they would break their Chinese army, and the two large battalions on the left and right would not be able to capture them.
Lin Ruofeng hurriedly told Ye Lingxian of his thoughts, and Ye Lingyan nodded slightly after hearing this, but he didn't immediately reply to Lin Ruofeng, but instead looked at the Night Rain Fairy behind Lin Ruofeng and asked, "General Ye doesn't have any better ideas?"
Since the last time Night Rain Fairy shined in Bayan Zhuoer, Lin Ruofeng appointed Night Rain Fairy as the chief of staff of the field army, that is, the military division, so when the generals and above of the expeditionary force gathered in the tent, Lin Ruofeng also brought her along, in view of Night Rain Fairy's excellent performance in Bayan Zhuoer City, the generals naturally had no objections, and it was even more impossible for Ye Lingxian to object.
Ye Yuxian groaned for a while, seeing that all the generals in the tent were looking at her, Ye Yuxian was still a little nervous in her heart, after all, she had not expressed herself in front of so many strangers, and they were all seniors older than herself, so she subconsciously hid behind Lin Ruofeng, and some did not dare to speak, this is still the case that most of the generals in it are the generals of the Rouran clan.
Lin Ruofeng didn't expect that he would not be surprised at all when facing the Dragon Soul Iron Horse for the first time, Zhen Nuo decided that the Night Rain Fairy would have stage fright here, hesitated for a moment, and secretly reached behind his right hand to gently hold the Night Rain Fairy's silky hand, clenched it gently, signaling that she was there, so she didn't have to worry.
Being suddenly named by Ye Lingxian, Ye Yuxian was indeed a little panicked, but now that she felt the temperature in Lin Ruofeng's hand, her heart settled down in a trance, as if now that Lin Ruofeng was there, she became afraid of nothing.
Night Rain Fairy lightly opened her lips, and her voice was very pleasant and moving, "Night Marshal, generals, the last general feels that there is no need for us to take a hard-fought battle with the Rakshasa army, the last general has a small plan here, not necessarily how good, I hope the generals will not blame!"
Ye Yuxian continued: "The last general thinks that our advantage is field warfare, and there is no need for us to storm the strong fortifications of the two large battalions on the left and right, and the last general agrees with General Lin Ruofeng's central breakthrough strategy, but the last general thinks that we can still improve this tactic in this way." ”
"First of all, we first sent 500,000 Praetorian Cavalry cavalry to feint to attack the Rakshasa Left Battalion, and then, sent the Xiao Cavalry Army plus 500,000 Rouran Iron Cavalry to bypass the left camp, and hide in a large circle in the rear of the Rakshasa Army. ”
At the same time, the lightning iron cavalry is inserted in the middle of the left camp and the right camp, at this time we should not attack the right camp, the right camp occupies a strong camp, and it will not come to the rescue of the left camp lightly, at this time, the Rakshasa Chinese army will definitely send cavalry to reconnoiter and rescue, the number will not be too much, we will directly cross the middle of the Rakshasa left camp and the Chinese army, how many cavalry they come we will swallow him. ”
"There are 200,000 lightning iron cavalry in the middle of the left battalion and the right battalion, with the strength of the right battalion, it is difficult to break out of the blockade line of the lightning iron cavalry, anyway, the lightning iron cavalry should not attack the right battalion, the right battalion is only 200,000 cavalry, it is bound to be difficult to compete with the lightning iron cavalry. ”
"At this time, the Rakshasa left camp is surrounded by us, whether it is true or not, it is impossible for the Rakshasa army not to save, but the entire Chinese army is inserted in the middle of the Rakshasa left camp and the Rakshasa army, they are not the opponent of our Chinese army's 1.5 million Rouran iron cavalry, and they send food in vain, so the Rakshasa Chinese army will definitely go out, and when the Rakshasa Chinese army is halfway through, General Lin Ruofeng will lead the Xiao cavalry army and 500,000 Rouran iron cavalry to attack the Rakshasa military camp directly from the side and rear, the defense focus of their camp must be in front, and the back is their Bulgan, which should be the weak point of their defense, plus they do not have many soldiers leftIt won't take much to break their camp. ”
"After breaking the camp of the Rakshasa Chinese army, leave 200,000 Rouran Iron Cavalry to look at the soldiers of Rakgan, if they support, let them in directly, and take Bulgan first, but they should not be so stupid, the remaining Xiao Cavalry and 300,000 Rouran Iron Cavalry, General Lin Ruofeng led them to quickly pursue the Rakshasa Chinese army, and together with our Chinese army, the Rakshasa Chinese army was copied in two, at this time, the lightning iron cavalry must move to the middle of the right battalion to the Rakshasa Chinese army, and the soldiers of the right battalion of the Rakshasa cannot be allowed to support their Chinese army, and prevent their cavalry from entering the battlefield here at any cost, believing in the ability of the lightning iron cavalry, it is quite simple to deal with the same number of Rakshasa cavalry.
