Chapter 542: Shame

"In six days, almost half of the territory of Chahar was annexed, and many places were transferred, who said that this matter could be done on our brothers?"

Zhao Sui looked at the adjutant, not only the adjutant lowered his head, but also the staff officers around him lowered their heads.

When they think about it, they know it's hard to do, no!

It's not that hard anymore! It's almost impossible to do.

Everyone has also fought many battles with Zhao Sui, and they are very aware of the actual situation in the army.

It is indeed possible to travel 300 kilometers in six days, but even so, the soldiers below are already complaining.

In this case, let alone continue to fight, it is very rare to be able to maintain morale without collapsing.

And a rapid march of 300 kilometers, it is necessary to launch several battles one after another, and even more so to defeat the 10,000-strong team with a cavalry regiment, which is impossible to look at.

But the war report is a real record, which shows that this is the case, and everyone has to obey.

"So we can't do it, can we? But Zhao Ming's department did it, do you think this Zhao Ming is underestimated? ”

Zhao Sui rubbed his eyebrows and sighed,

This means that this army is far from being a ragtag army that has not been established for more than a year.

On the contrary, this is the elite of the cavalry elite, not only has it been trained in physical fitness in peacetime, but even the war horses have been trained.

And the morale cohesion is very terrible, even if such an army is not well-equipped, I dare to say that he Zhang Li will be beaten and crying father. ”

"Even if we face this cavalry, we don't dare to say that we can win!"

Zhao Sui couldn't help but shake his head, this was not his prestige and demoralization of others, but the result of careful analysis.

As the backbone of the cavalry of the Jin army at the beginning of its formation, Zhao Sui's research on cavalry can be said to have been a long time.

He knew very well how much of the burden of this kind of high-intensity combat would be on the personnel and horses, and he still kept saying this, otherwise he would really make a sincere comparison, at least in terms of carrying out orders, it would never be possible for his own command to do this level.

"Sir, having said that, wouldn't it be better for us to be more prepared before we go out?

In such a hurry, I am afraid that the armaments and materials will not be fully prepared.

We carry a maximum of five days' food and enough ammunition to barely fight a few encounters.

It is even more impossible to carry too many heavy weapons....."

A staff officer was a little puzzled, since the enemy was not a second-rate army, why was he in such a hurry.

As far as this matter is concerned, Zhao Sui shook his head again.

"You still don't understand what we mean!

Do you still think this Zhao Ming is just a petty fight? With such a swift offensive as the wind, believe it or not, if we are a little slower, we can really only collect the body of this kid Zhang Li.

Hurry up and assemble, you must all be pulled out in three hours at most.

The brothers have rested enough lately, so I don't need to say anything more, right? ”

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other for a while, and they were a little incomprehensible.

The fighter plane is fleeting, and everyone has no objection to this, but no matter how wasteful this Zhang Li is, it should be no problem for tens of thousands of troops to drag him Zhao Ming for a week, right?

But the commander has already given the death order, and everyone can obey it truthfully.

Soon, the army began to roar like a wind-up machine.

They are not accustomed to the frontal battlefield of the Southern Grand Army and are not good at such small-scale battles?

In just two and a half hours, tens of thousands of troops were assembled.

The total number of Zhao Sui's cavalry reached 11,000, in addition to the original 8,000 men of the cavalry division, there was also a cavalry artillery battalion and logistics, engineers, communications and other personnel deployment.

It is a relatively complete cavalry division, consisting of four cavalry regiments, a cavalry artillery battalion and a number of logistics units.

The cavalry divisions in these years normally numbered about 6,000 to 8,000 people, and some numbered tens of thousands, but there were not many.

It is also far from reaching the ugly cavalry division during the anti-ugly period, and the scale of one division alone is 16,000 people.

Previously, Zhao Sui was seriously injured in the frontal battlefield in the south, and he had replenished a lot when he returned to the rear, but he still had not reached the original full allocation.

But looking at these heavy firepower that was finally replenished, he felt distressed.

Now that the war is tight, if he travels lightly, most of the cavalry battalions will have to leave a lot of baggage.

These were all things that he had managed to get from the rear with the convenience of his position, and as a result, he had to vomit out most of them.

"Sir, you can't throw these things away! Our cavalry battalion itself has suffered heavy losses, if we don't have these things.

When the fighting in the south is over, it will be difficult to have such an opportunity to replenish equipment. ”

The adjutant was a little reluctant, this was all baby bumps.

The cavalry is weak in attacking fortifications, and the main reason why their cavalry divisions are also good at attacking fortifications is this cavalry artillery battalion.

Without this thing, their cavalry would really have to follow behind the infantry regiment to fight the autumn wind.

"Lost! I've lost them all! ”

Zhao Sui gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

Thinking that this was an opportunity to make meritorious contributions, if he missed it, if even Chahar was lost, he would be guilty of a great crime.

At that time, I am afraid that I will not eat guns with Zhang Li.

Soon after half an hour of tidying up, after most of the baggage was abandoned, the army began to march quickly.

Everyone mounted their horses, took a small amount of baggage, and galloped away in the direction of Chahar.

At the same time, Zhangjiakou, which was also known as Zhangyuan in ancient times, was Wucheng.

But today Zhang Li had to walk out of the Dutong Mansion, not that he had already rushed to the front line.

Because he is now on the front line.

Wucheng has now been reduced to the front line.

It was so wonderful that after only two night's sleeps, only two days later, there was already a large army outside the city.

Standing on the city wall, looking at the enemy cavalry reconnaissance company squad that flew by from time to time, Zhang Li's face was cloudy.

Shame on you! Shame!

He Zhang Li was forced to this point by a businessman who did business.

When this dog thing communicated with him some time ago, he still called him in the letter with the old brother on the left and Shangfeng on the right.

That's how you're on the top now?

"Sir!"

"Well, let's talk." Zhang Li sighed and looked at Adjutant Ren beside him.

"Xuanhua and Datong have been contacted over there, and they said that the reinforcements had already set off yesterday.....

"What about the man? Datong is far away, but what about the people in Xuanhua?

It's only twenty kilometers, don't tell me they can get lost! Zhang Li snorted coldly.

"This ..... Xuanhua sent an urgent telegram asking for our support, and they were attacked by the enemy early yesterday morning.

It is estimated that the number of enemy troops is no less than several thousand, mostly cavalry, and a small number of artillery bombardment.

Now the reinforcements were not only unable to arrive, but also were defeated, and they had no choice but to retreat to Xuanhua again. ”

As he spoke, Adjutant Ren lowered his head, for fear of angering Zhang Qian's brows.
