"How much?"

"Sir, why don't we take Chahar as the dividing line and deploy defenses in the Ministry of Commerce?

This place happens to be in the south-central zone, and it is only 160 kilometers away from the headquarters, and the grassland is a rapid march, and the cavalry gallops for up to two days.

And in terms of numbers, we also need to pay attention to one no more, no less, three thousand is not too much, three thousand is not too much.

It just corresponds to a flag in Outer Mongolia, and it's hard to say without our battle report, right? ”

Adjutant Zhou's answer can be said to have touched Zhang Li's heart.

Regarding the deployment of the north, he actually had an idea in his heart, but he didn't expect Adjutant Zhou to be so thoughtful.

"Not bad! Not bad! Xiao Zhou, I know you have an idea, I really didn't see the wrong person! ”

Zhang Li became more and more satisfied with Adjutant Zhou, but then his face was a little solemn,

"But what will we do with this Zhao Ming in the future? Isn't that authentic? ”

Hearing this, Adjutant Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said, "Sir, how can you allow others to snore on the side of this couch?" ”

In just one sentence, Zhang Li smiled again in the blink of an eye.

The smile on his face could hardly be hidden, a subordinate who can think about everything for the sake of the commander is a good subordinate, and it is obvious that Adjutant Zhou has not only completed it, but also overfulfilled it.

The garrison in the Shang capital is not far away, and according to the trend of the Outer Mongolians going south, they may be able to reach here in a few days.

But if the Outer Mongolians are not stupid, it is almost impossible to continue south.

And this distance is just right, the supply line will not suffer too much, and the cost will not be too large.

Three thousand people is not too much, no less, and when the time comes, it will be reasonable to report Zhao Ming's battle report together.

Even if you check it out and really find out something, it won't be a problem.

The Spring and Autumn penmanship of this war report is so descriptive that people can't find fault with it, and Zhao Ming is also a local person in the final analysis, so it's not wrong.

"Xiao Zhou, if I'm not mistaken, you should have graduated from the Army Academy, right?

But how do you know so many doorways? ”

Hearing Zhang Li say this, Adjutant Zhou was silent on the surface, but he was happy in his heart.

Beginning to ask about the situation of the subordinates' family background is undoubtedly a good signal.

"Yes, sir, but the lowly family is also considered a scholarly family, my grandfather was a seven-rank civil official in the previous dynasty, and the generation of Gaozu was the left deputy capital of the Sanpin Metropolitan Inspectorate.

Liezu served as the envoy of the capital to the salt transport in Liangjiang for a period of time."

Hearing this, Zhang Li's heart couldn't help jumping, and his gaze at Adjutant Zhou became even kinder.

Gee! No wonder this evil sect is crooked one after another, and dare to love this is the origin of family learning.

"Good! This matter will be left to you to take full responsibility, and you must deploy to the defense line within three days, the grassland herdsmen urgently need us to sit down, but we can't delay! ”

"It's sir!"

The two looked at each other and laughed.

——

"It seems that I did not bring my brothers here to enjoy happiness! This is here to endure hardship, right? ”

Looking at the busy crowd in the distance, Zhang Kai couldn't help but smile bitterly.

On the second day of my arrival, I had just experienced a fight the day before, and the next day I started to organize a joint training camp for the herdsmen of the Chabei United Department.

Not only are they responsible for training herders, but now they are being trained.

That's right, these new arrivals not only need to train herders, but also be trained.

Zhao Ming's old Song army brothers were responsible for training their combat ability on the grassland.

In yesterday's fight, Zhao Ming also saw some problems with the other party.

First of all, the equestrian is very stretched, not that it can't, but compared to the steppe people, their equestrianism has been compared all of a sudden.

The second is the knife technique.

Although these new brothers of the Zhensong Army are all veterans, their swordsmanship is really not very powerful, and they are naturally far inferior to those swordsmen in Guanzhong.

and the swordsmanship of the Outer Mongolian people is barely between the best, or even weaker, and it is only with a high degree of group combat mode that it can only play an advantage yesterday.

This is all what Zhao Ming has experienced since he came, since Zhao Ming and they have already gone through, they naturally don't want these brothers to continue to follow the old path and lose so many brothers for nothing.

You have to learn the skill of dragging the knife in the kick, and you must also learn the equestrian skills.

Combined with the group charge, it can be regarded as the magic weapon of modern cavalry.

Strictly speaking, modern cavalry is close to the brink of elimination, but in the case that the coverage of automated weapons is far from enough, there is still a market for cavalry.

Whether it is a domestic or Western battlefield, cavalry still has a place.

It's just that from the position of the main force, it has become an add-on to other tactics.

"Hehe, Brother Zhang, what do you think the cavalry needs to have now?" Zhao Ming did not rush to respond to the other party, but threw out a question.

"This...."

Zhang Kai fell into deep thought, carefully considered for a long time, and then said in a deep voice, "I think it should be the terrain, tactics, and the timing of cutting into the battlefield!" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Ming nodded, Zhang Kai's idea was not wrong, at least it was not all wrong.

"Well, Brother Zhang, you're right, but it's not so right!"

"Oh? How so? \"

Zhang Kai raised his eyebrows, but he was not angry, after all, he led the cavalry to be half a bucket of water.

After serving under Song Zhe, he was in a state of long-term rottenness, and the spirit that followed Liu Dashuai before was long gone.

"Now the cavalry is fighting, what you said is only one thing, the most important thing is morale, high mobility, and instant lethality!"

Zhao Ming said lightly, seeing the confusion on the other party's face, he continued,

"Morale is the most important thing, and now the cavalry charge is not like before, and there were not even decent long-range weapons before.

Now it's different, all kinds of firearms, even semi-automatic rifles, machine guns, and cannons.

These are all invisible fears, even if they do nothing but point a gun at you, they will make their legs tremble.

That's why I said that morale and courage are the most important, and you can only be a cavalryman if you are not afraid of death.

High engine power, what I understand here is not whether you run fast or not, but the overall high-speed response when the command is given.

As a whole, how to give orders from the leader, the following can be accurately and quickly executed, this speed must be fast.

Bullets don't give you extra time to react.

We are afraid when we charge, and the enemy is also afraid of fear in the face of a large cavalry charge.

If the cavalry hesitates when charging and the order is not completely executed, it will be a big taboo.

All of a sudden!

The first leader was killed, and the next order must also stand up immediately, and the cavalry had a high rate of battle losses, but the results were equally high.

Therefore, I also need to train these brothers in this high mobility, and every brother needs to be able to read and understand the instructions.

Everyone, company commander, platoon commander, and even squad leader must learn how to send instructions. ”
