Chapter 168: The Situation on the Battlefield Is Unfavorable to the Final Jin Army
When Lan Tianhe and his generals left, the tent was obviously empty, and everyone had a solemn feeling.
"General Zhao..."
Guo Rui walked over, held Zhao Sanchun's hand tightly, and said apologetically:
"Brother, every time you take on the most arduous and important task, the loss of men and horses is the most serious so far, whether you can get out of this time is up to you."
"Don't say it, the young marshal will understand how heavy the burden is on your shoulders, and your command is to go to the soup and fight the fire, and the foolish brother will never give up."
Zhao Sanchun is a loyal and righteous man, although he is a rough man, he knows what the overall situation is.
"Long Jianfei and Lan Tianhe led the troops to leave, the movement was very large, Mu Tony on the Eagle Mouth Ridge was not stupid, he must have made an agreement with He Lu in advance, and understood that this was the attachment ion to start a flank attack, so, within an hour, he will definitely go out and attack your department, and he will be entangled to the death."
"Once your cavalry is entangled here, Long Jianfei will have more than 7,000 people riding there, and there will be able to block 5,000 attached ions, and at most hold on until before dark, once Long Jianfei is defeated, Lan Tianhe's fate will be unlucky."
Guo Rui is telling the truth, Zhao Sanchun is the most naΓ―ve, he can't even think about it with his ass, which means the destruction of the mobile force in the northern Xinjiang of the Final Jin Army.
"I've thought about it, we must win by surprise, send a hundred-man cavalry team, quietly go around to the west side of Eagle Tsui Ridge, and take advantage of the enemy's nest to rush in and set fire to the mountain, forcing Mu Toni to be disheartened, and the troops retreat into the ridge, so that your troops can withdraw from the battlefield and return to the camp."
Hearing what Guo Rui said, Zhao Sanchun hesitated for a moment and said, "Send my brother Zhao Qi." β
Zhao Sanchun's own brother Zhao Qi is his guard tuntun chief, and there are only more than 80 horses left.
Guo Rui personally received, "You can't bring many people, be careful, you must not be discovered, the timing and suddenness of the attack are very important, light a fire to their tents and belongings, and burn as many areas as possible, so that you can complete the task." β
In the tent, the light is not bright, although they can't see each other's faces clearly, but they are connected to each other at the moment.
Everyone is quite a bit of a parting, like the taste of another world.
Between Zhao Sanchun and Zhao Qi's brothers, He Shang is not a tragic feeling that 'the strong man is gone and will never return'.
Zhao Qi still grinned and said:
"Third brother, you are the pillar of my family, you must take care, the younger brothers and sisters in the family are all pleased, you can rest assured, my brother will never disgrace you."
"Alright, take care, brother!"
"Take care of the third brother!"
The two didn't say anything more, but they were very sad when they said more.
Zhao Qi led the horse and led the guards to the side of the barracks and left quietly.
Each member of the team led the horse away, and the horse's hooves were wrapped in sackcloth to prevent the sound from being heard, so as to reduce the distance.
This is one of the combat tricks arranged by Guo Rui, which is to sneak attack the rear camp.
Zhao Qi's subordinate cavalry formed an assault team and quietly detoured to the hills on the west side of Yingzui Ridge to ambush.
When Guo Rui led a large army to fight with Mutoni's main force from the front, the assault team suddenly attacked the Eagle's Beak Rock camp, burned its tents and supplies, and took their lair.
The purpose of the sneak attack was to shake the morale of the Turkic soldiers, break their fighting spirit, and facilitate the frontal defeat of the Mutoni men, and then the troops quickly withdrew from the battlefield.
So, timing is important.
This seems to be quite difficult.
In those two hours, there are too many combat variables involved.
The intensity of the frontal attack, whether it has penetrated the enemy camp, the time node of Zhao Qi's raid, and the number of Turkic soldiers guarding the old nest of the rear camp.
In short, there are so many factors that determine the success or failure of the war that Guo Rui can't calculate, and he makes multiple assumptions.
But calculated from the probability of the factors of victory or defeat in the war, Guo Rui's chances of victory are small.
The biggest downside is the number of people, the place and the time.
Facing an enemy four times his size, there were 5,000 adjuncts and tens of thousands of Uighur soldiers.
Most likely, entangled by the enemy.
Moreover, at present, it is a lone army to fight deep into enemy territory.
The arrival of reinforcements from the Eastern Turks is still unknown.
Because it is conceivable that at this time, the Eastern Turkic forces were fighting.
In the face of a battle with a low probability of victory, it is completely their conscious behavior without any military order to force them.
But Guo Rui and the others still decided to do it without hesitation!
Why?
This is the honor of being a soldier and the sacred mission of defending the land.
Those who come will be punished!
In fact, Guo Rui, Long Jianfei, Lan Tianhe, Zhao Sanchun and others are all afraid of doing nothing to send them to death.
are trying their best to avoid colliding with the death of inaction.
But when death really came, they never backed down.
Because they understand that there is no way back.
As a soldier, you must defend the dignity of the country and the nation at all times and in all places!
War is undoubtedly ugly and cruel.
But at this moment, when the strong atmosphere of war, honor and mission overwhelmingly greeted us, it instantly infected every soldier present.
Guo Rui was glad that none of the final Jin soldiers present flinched in the face of the danger of many fierce and auspicious people.
This is exactly what is terrible about the soldiers of the final ranks.
Once the survival is slim, these real warriors who put the honor of the military above their lives choose not to retreat, but to fight hard.
Because they know that only by moving forward can they get a glimmer of life.
For this Jedi counterattack, Guo Rui was ready to sacrifice in his heart.
He strictly ordered all the scouts sent out around him, but if he came across anyone around the march, whoever he was, he would be killed, and he would not be left alive.
At this time, it is necessary to prevent the enemy's scouts from spying on the military situation.
Later facts proved that Guo Rui's seemingly cruel and ruthless extreme approach actually saved the entire army and even affected the trend of the entire campaign.
For among those who were slain, there were indeed a number of enemies who had already arranged for them to spy and scout.
Otherwise, the traces of Zhao Qi's team moving will be exposed in advance.
"Young marshal, this Zhao Qi's martial arts are still okay, the battle is indeed fierce, but he is not as good as me Zhou Dalang in horse warfare, and he brings fewer people, but one... Is the young marshal really relieved to put the key to our victory or defeat in this big battle on such people? β
Zhou Dalang, the general of the third battalion, looked at Zhao Qi and them who were far away, and asked Guo Ruidao.
He and the young marshal participated in a battle against Gulandab, and he felt a little like life and death, not the rusty feeling at the beginning.
Just now he asked to carry out a sneak attack, but Guo Rui did not agree.
First, Zhou Dalang is more than ferocious and less flexible, and his execution discipline is not too strong, and he fights to the death when he comes up, and it is easy to forget the main task.
Second, the frontal impact is chiseled, and it is precisely the need for a fierce general like Zhou Dalang as an arrow.
"There is never an absolute chance of victory in a war, and a chance detail can determine the final victory or defeat."
Guo Rui glanced at the camp generals around him and said in a deep voice.
