Chapter 39: The Battle of the Prairie Pattern
After repeated deductions and revisions by the Military Staff Department, the operational plan for the counterattack was finally finalized.
The principle is that in the process of preparing for the war, the three corps of Changqing will take the lead in attacking.
Take advantage of this time difference to avoid a multi-front war on evergreen fronts. This battle was the most difficult battle since Doma fought in Changqing, and it was completely a head-on confrontation.
As for the other small tribes, although there are a little more of them who have taken refuge in the three tribes, but with my "fiery eyes", each tribe that has taken refuge in us is reliable for the time being.
The three armies moved almost at the same time, and the first army also led the 1456, 4th regiment and 80,000 regular troops, and the 10,000 attacking regiment of Jiamugesen as the left route army, marching towards the Wuying tribe.
The Second Army, Domayaqi, led the 237th and 70,000 attacking regiments, plus 110,000 reserves as the right army, and marched towards the middle position of Wuying and the other two divisions, pretending to be a position to block the enemy.
Tribes that have taken refuge along the way will be notified of the assembled troops in due course by our liaison officers according to the distance. Then the rear army was formed
The 80,000 defenders of the Third Army sent 80,000 to Changqing, 40,000 to build fortifications, and 10,000 cavalry to lead 30,000 slave troops with a total of 40,000 cavalry to sweep away the tribes that had not surrendered, or to roam in the sphere of influence of Changqing, annihilate the small tribes that took advantage of the fire to loot, and attack at the right time.
I handed over the battle plan to Ye Shujie and explained the battle plan in detail, mainly after making sure that Ye Shujie had no problem again, I returned to the rear army.
Qing Liangyu, Long Wu and Su Jizi were all in the rear army, and Shi Yan had already secretly arranged a large array, and after two days of marching, it was only 200 miles away from the Wuying tribe.
The rear army is holding a meeting to take refuge in the small tribes, and the chiefs of the tribes and their assistants have arrived.
Xiaowen scanned these dozens of people, and I already knew it, hehe.
Then he pulled out a parchment roll and had it passed to Chief Wilder. When the chief saw this, he was furious. He drew his sword and shouted at his assistant, "Bastard, I treat you well, why is that?"
Then he smashed the parchment roll into the man's face, and the man looked a little panicked, but pretended to be calm and asked, "What do you mean, chief, I am loyal to you!"
His face changed, but he immediately calmed down and shouted, "Wronged, framed, don't believe it, chief" and tried to run away as he spoke.
"Poof", a sword pierced the man's heart.
"Knock" Wilder knelt down, kowtowed guiltily and embarrassedly, "The King of England forgives his sins, he is not strict under the Emperor, except for the spies, please ask the King of England to give me a chance to make meritorious contributions to the crime!"
"I believe in Chief Wilder's sincerity, get up, I look forward to your performance on the battlefield!"
Then, I took a sip of the teacup, glanced at Ava, the two chiefs of Jidu, and then smiled evilly at the two of them, "Ava, the two chiefs of Jidu, do you two want to know why your tribe only has a population of 100,000?"
Everyone, including the two of them, was stunned, they really couldn't imagine that at a meeting before the war, the king would ask such a question, right?
The two of them were also in a hurry, not knowing how to answer, I glanced at everyone and said, "Because you two are not bold enough, you are undecided!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them felt that their heads were hit hard, and they only decided to be dizzy, although the two of them were fighting Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts, but they couldn't see it at all on the surface, and they didn't say it to anyone!
Ji Du had already knelt down to plead guilty, but Ava was still arguing, and I waved my hand to stop the two from talking. Looking at the chief and his assistant below, each with different expressions.
"For those who are truly attached, Changqing will not be treated badly, and you will not regret today's decision, if Chief Ava has not yet decided, you can go back and think about it again"
Then I gritted my teeth, and my tone became cold
"You, Ava, a tribe of a million people, waver when you take refuge. Then Shu Jie led the four million tribes to take refuge, shouldn't it turn the sky upside down? Do you think you are the only smart person in the world?"
As soon as these words came out, the big tent was in an uproar, if they were optimistic about the development momentum of Evergreen on the one hand, and more importantly, the region was close to Evergreen, there was no choice. In fact, I was very worried in my heart. After all, there is a huge disparity in strength, so I am not optimistic about this battle.
There is the myth of Qingliangyu commanding the battlefield, at most, it is a defeat for both sides, and eventually the grassland will fall into a melee, or a north-south campaign, but now, the strength and reversal.
Looking at the child sitting on it again, there was a little more respect and fear.
"The king of England forgives his sins, and the villain's sins deserve death" Ava and Ji couldn't stop kowtowing. I think the attitude of the two has also changed.
"Okay! save the strength for the battlefield and kill more heads!"
I think it's almost over, and when I say, "This battle is very important, and it will determine the future pattern of the grassland, and it will also directly determine the fate of your tribes, so I declare" luck is a moment, and everyone's hearts are also tightened, and who doesn't care about things linked to their own interests.
"In this battle, the three tribal chiefs with the most beheadings per capita will form the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth regiments of Changqing, and the three tribal populations with the fewest beheadings per capita will be dispersed."
As soon as he said that, each chief, including his own assistants, rubbed shoulders and held back his strength to make a big move.
"Next, please ask the commander of the Qing Corps to arrange and announce the battle plan. ”
Fortunately, there is Xiaowen here, otherwise the arm of a tribal chief would be bought, and the two chiefs would waver, and the impact on the battlefield would be completely immeasurable.
The Cave of a Thousand Miles was still destroyed in the anthill, not to mention the nearly 200,000 troops of the three tribes! Even if they would not fight back, when they fought against each other, a passive battle or even a one-touch collapse would completely cause the rout of one front, and then the entire battle.
When I named these three people, Qing Liangyu, Long Wu, and Su Jizi were all obviously trembling in their hearts, and they were even more afraid, but the positive emotions that followed from the various tribes rubbing shoulders made the three of them breathe a sigh of relief, in their opinion, this is the function of the intelligence department, in fact, not all.
On the other two sides of our army, the left army was heading towards the king of Wuying, about 150 miles away from Wuying and some small tribes, and the enemy gathered 400,000, that is, 90,000 to 400,000, of which 300,000 were in Wuying, and 100,000 were in small tribes.
The right army of 70,000 regular troops plus 110,000 reservists for a total of 180,000, facing the enemy is 300,000 in Yeshu, 300,000 in Ati, and 400,000 in small tribes.
Of the small tribal coalition forces, 150,000 were assembled behind the Yeshu tribal army, and 250,000 were assembled in front of the Ati tribal army.
