Ambush
Chapter 1448 Ambush
In terms of the advanced level of battlefield information synchronization, the Haihan Army is absolutely unique and powerful in this world.Relying on the black technology brought by the crossing, the Haihan Army can transmit information on the battlefield in real time among the senior generals, thus taking the lead in the battle.Later, as an opponent with a closed environment and lagging information, it was difficult for Jin to realize the huge advantage Haihan had in this regard, so he did not take this factor into account when he took action.
The news that the main force of the defenders led by Yanguli was defeated by Haihan in the decisive battle did not reach Jijiabao until nearly an hour after the end of the battle.And the order they got here was to let them "wait for an opportunity to retreat to Jinzhou City".The so-called "waiting for an opportunity" means that you can do it yourself, if you have the opportunity to slip away, you will slip away early.
Of course, when the news reached Jijiabao, it was already much later than Tom Wang. When the defenders were still hesitating whether they should abandon the city and flee, the marines led by Tom Wang were already in the north of Jijiabao. An ambush was set up on the official road for six or seven miles, and Jin Jun, who was waiting for the retreat, stepped in by himself.
When Tom Wang was about to lose his patience, Jin Jun, who had withdrawn from Jijiabao, finally appeared in the field of vision.Yanguli had taken away most of the defenders of Jijiabao before, leaving only a team of about a thousand people here.This kind of deployment was naturally a bet that Haihan would not use Jijiabao as the real main attack direction. His bet was right, but unfortunately, in the head-to-head confrontation, he still failed to fight against Haihan's main force.With Jijiabao staying behind, it was naturally impossible to stop Haihan's offensive, and there was no other more suitable solution than running away.
Wang Tom, who was just suffocating his stomach, did not intend to let this Houjin army go lightly. The combat opportunity he made was to ambush and inflict heavy damage on his opponent, avenging the one-shot revenge that was suppressed by the Houjin the day before yesterday.
The prelude to the battle was opened by the explosion of several mines. This was the last inventory in the entire Liaodong area. Wang Tom deployed all of them on the only way for the post-Jin army to pass.
When the vanguard of the Houjin Army was disgraced by these explosions, the several artillery pieces that were ambushed in the bushes on both sides of the official road also showed their hideous faces. Most of them lay down directly, and the remnant enemy, who had not yet awakened to the enemy's hiding place, was subjected to intensive rifle fire and was completely lost in just a few seconds.
The main force of the Chinese army, who was more than a dozen meters away from the vanguard, didn't even have time to respond, and watched helplessly as the vanguard was quickly dealt with by Haihan, followed by the constant sound from the mountains and forests on both sides of the road. gunshots.
Although the Marine Corps is not good at fighting in the mountains and forests, even so, it is enough to deal with this post-Golden Army who is desperate and wants to escape back to Jinzhou City.After two rounds of salvos, the casualties were not large, but their positions were already in chaos. What's more unfortunate was that their commander was shot in the first round of the attack. Become a headless fly.
With the military quality of the Marine Corps, it is no problem to deal with an unwilling enemy army in the set up ambush circle.Although Tom Wang did not fight in person, he could be considered to be on the front line to command the battle, which shows that he attaches great importance to the victory or defeat of this battle.If it is possible, he really intends to wipe out this post-jin army, so the first shot is a storm, and there is no mercy.
However, there is also a considerable proportion of cavalry in this post-Jin army, so it is not realistic for Wang Tom to completely block the enemy's path.He was a little worried about whether these post-golden cavalry would try to detour behind his pre-set positions to launch a counterattack, but after the fight, he found that these post-golden cavalry did not have the will to fight either. After that, he left the infantrymen who were still under siege and fled north, with no intention of turning back to save them.
Wang Tom did not have an organized cavalry unit, so it was naturally impossible to keep these cavalry.However, those Houjin infantrymen who used cold weapons were miserable. They couldn't run away, and they couldn't close the fighting distance with the Haihan Army. They could only be shot as human-shaped targets.The anger that the Marine Corps was suppressed and beaten by Jin Jun yesterday was finally vented here.
The battle ended after only about ten minutes. Except for the nearly [-] cavalry who escaped by themselves, the rest were basically surrounded by the Marine Corps, including about [-] prisoners.Although Tom Wang did not want to keep these prisoners, he was not cold enough to order the direct execution of these prisoners. Anyway, the Jinzhou Isthmus defense line will definitely have a major renovation in the future, so it is very difficult for these prisoners to be rushed into hard labor. normal arrangement.
Sun Bing, the company commander of the Marine Corps, gained a lot in this battle. Not only did he kill the enemy commander, but he also intercepted a batch of money that he planned to transport back to the north.According to preliminary statistics, these two boxes of gold and silver jewelry should also be worth a lot, at least 6 to [-] taels when converted into silver.After the notification of this unexpected harvest, all the generals ordered to search through several strongholds on the defense line to see if there were any valuables that the Jin army could not withdraw in time.
At the other end of the line of defense, the Sujiabao, the situation is clearer than that of Jijiabao.As Qian Tiandun said, Harugong had a good grasp of the fighter's opportunity. As soon as the Jin army showed signs of retreating, he led the cavalry battalion into the Sujiabao, and then bit the opponent's tail tightly.The Hou Jin army who was originally stationed in Sujiabao paid a price of nearly 500 people before they got out.
So far, the post-Jin army on the Jinzhou Isthmus defense line has been cleared by Haihan, and this fortification that traverses the Jinzhou Isthmus has also changed hands and become the control area of Haihan.However, during these few days of fighting, the Haihan Army has destroyed several fortresses, and forcibly demolished such a large hole in the middle. To restore these places as before, the amount of work will not be too small.Moreover, the Haihan Army will definitely not completely use the old fortifications, and will definitely make great changes on this basis, and build this line of defense into a fortification with Haihan characteristics. Judging from the current manpower conditions, this construction period may not be good. to continue until the next year.
Of course, the military would not mind this kind of trouble. The Jinzhou Isthmus is the northern border of the Haihan territory. In order to maintain the security of this place, it is reasonable to apply for more military expenses.And if nothing else, the special operations battalion will leave Liaodong after completing the spring offensive, so if you want to defend the extra enclave, you will have to transfer troops. With Haihan's current deployment of one carrot and one pit, it must be It is also necessary to increase the size of the troops.
As long as the military can expand, it will not be a bad thing for the military. Whether it is the navy or the army, the top officials of the Ministry of Defense are definitely happy to see it.Moreover, the new idea of building an army proposed by the Ministry of National Defense is a mixed organization, that is, a unit should not only have infantry, but also a fixed organization of artillery, cavalry, engineers and other arms, so that there is no need to be recruited from place to place every time a war is fought. The corresponding arms are temporarily assembled into an army.Such an establishment method will greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the troops. Of course, the inevitable increase in military expenditures will follow. The new army establishment method will inevitably encounter many obstacles in the promotion process, but the military will definitely spare no effort. advance this plan.
And the most effective promotion measure is the good news of victory on the battlefield.Only a real victory can enable the executive committee's senior officials with different opinions to have a unified understanding and pass the military's application.The result of the Haihan Spring Offensive is undoubtedly the biggest gain in the foreign war in the past two years. It not only gained a foothold in Liaodong, but also caused a certain degree of blow to Houjin, although it may not really make Houjin It hurts, but at least they have one more fear when they want to attack the Ming in the future.With the Haihan pestle on the Jinzhou Peninsula, if Houjin wants to move his troops, he must first weigh Haihan's attitude.
Of course, in order for the Executive Committee to recognize the military's record in Liaodong and subsequent military reform measures, there are still many details that need to be worked on when writing the report.Especially those topics that make the civil servants very sensitive, they should be careful to polish them, so that the other party cannot easily catch the pigtails.
After finishing the work on the ground, Qian Tiandun called Chen Yixin and asked him to start arranging the writing of the post-war report.This kind of thing is usually a draft of the military and Chinese documents, and then it is reviewed by the generals to see what needs to be revised and supplemented. After slowly improving it, it is sent back to the Ministry of National Defense in Sanya, where it will be reviewed and revised again, and then submitted. Executive Committee.
Chen Yixin remembered something, and took the initiative to recommend a candidate: "Liu Shang from the Youth League also came to Liaodong with the army this time, and now he is temporarily serving as a clerk in the army to manage logistical affairs. Although this person's education level is not high, but There is indeed something in his brain, and he is familiar with propaganda, and I think he can also join in the writing of the report."
Qian Tiandun knew about Liu Shang, but Chen Yixin was making up his mind about his appointment, and he had not asked too much before.Qian Tiandun didn't think much about Liu Shang's reliability. After all, he was an official of the Youth League and a qualified naturalized citizen who passed the political trial in Sanya, so he had no reason to doubt his loyalty.However, whether it is Chen Yixin or Qian Tiandun, with their knowledge of traveling through two time and space, it is difficult to imagine how Liu Shang's identity passed the heavy review of Haihan, and entered the officialdom as a stable identity. Unsuspecting officials.
When Liu Shang received the notice, he was taking a few logisticians to count the ammunition in stock. He was not dissatisfied with his assignment to this logistical post. In this post, he could have access to a lot of weapons and equipment that he had been thinking about before. Staying in the back and there is no danger to life, it can be regarded as a relatively satisfactory job.
And based on his work experience over the past few months, he realized one thing, that is, the more positions and places he has been in, the more trust he can get.Even if he didn't do much in these temporary positions, it was good for his professional resume.In particular, this experience of going on an expedition with the army has undoubtedly played a role in gilding his identity as an officer of the Youth League. Even if he can't even get half of the military merit, he will at least have "a certain month in a certain year, with the sea" on his resume in the future. A certain part of the Han army went to Liaodong and accompanied the army to win the victory of Jinzhou" such a glorious record.
Taking advantage of this period of time in the army, Liu Shang figured out a lot of problems. For example, the rifles installed in the Haihan Army are divided into several calibers, and what are the differences in the ammunition of each caliber? What kind of principle, what kind of shells are used in the new artillery.
Of course, even if he has access to this kind of military secrets, he is still in the stage of knowing it and not knowing why, and it is even more impossible to package and leak his manufacturing technology.In addition to lamenting that Haihan's military technology is too advanced, Liu Shang also secretly replaced Hou Jin Dao in his heart. With such a formidable opponent, the hard days have only just begun.
Even if he is not clear about the future plans of the Ministry of National Defense, Liu Shang believes that Haihan should not easily compromise or even negotiate with Hou Jin. According to his feelings after contacting the northern garrison during this period, he even thinks that the military is likely to use this kind of situation. Contradictions and conflicts have maintained a state of war with Houjin for a long time in the Liaodong area, and even turned Liaodong into a place for the military to train troops in rounds.This kind of idea is very bold, but Liu Shang believes that with the military style, coupled with the remote environment of the Emperor Tiangao in Liaodong, nothing is completely impossible.
After receiving the notice from Chen Yixin, Liu Shang also roughly guessed the reason why he was recruited.Propaganda about war was originally a skill he acquired when he was a storyteller in the past. After entering Haihan, he received systematic training. It is indeed difficult for ordinary military Chinese writers to compare with him in terms of creative ability.Chen Yixin took a fancy to himself, and naturally hoped that he could compile the Liaodong war into a story that was easy to spread, and through word of mouth, to win a higher public support rate for the Haihan military.
It's just that this errand is not easy. After all, Liu Shang stayed at the second-tier base to count ammunition during the war. He didn't see the brutal scene of the two armies fighting, so it was naturally difficult to make up stories based on nonsense.Therefore, the first thing Liu Shang did after receiving the assignment was to go to the front line of the Jinzhou Isthmus, and go there to witness the rock-solid position claimed by the military.
Liu Shang had seen quite a few corpses in the past, but the enemy corpses he had seen on the defensive line of the Jinzhou Isthmus were probably more than those he had ever seen in his entire life. It took a long time for a calm mind to really calm down.It wasn't until he saw these bloody tragedies outside the position that he was convinced that Haihan had indeed won a shocking victory here.
