Think about it, the Great Chinese Army has been fighting in the south and north, and has always had few opponents. No matter how fierce the army is, it seems that it can only hit a wall in front of them. And if he can severely damage this army, what a credit it will be.
I'm afraid that if the Western Shu Army grows stronger in the future, he won't be able to take the position of commander-in-chief. Thinking of this, Liu Cao's heart became hot. Unable to calm down, he decided to strike first.
idea.
Thinking that everyone has been facing each other for such a long time, I am afraid that both sides have become accustomed to the current situation. But if he suddenly attacks at this time, he may catch the Chinese army by surprise. Now that such a good opportunity is placed in front of him,
There is no reason not to seize it.
So, just this afternoon, he called his generals, and after some discussion, he made the decision to launch a surprise attack on the Chinese army ten miles away on the opposite side early tomorrow morning.
In order to make the soldiers use their lives, Liu Cao also promised that as long as he could defeat the Chinese army this time, he would definitely ask for credit for everyone.
After some encouragement, the 40,000 Western Shu troops became excited. They seemed to have seen the moment when they defeated the Great Chinese Army and saw the moment when they gained a huge harvest.
The morale of the army has increased in a short period of time. This is naturally due to the fact that Liu Cao, the commander-in-chief, is very determined to fight, but more importantly, it is because the Western Shu Army has not seen the power of the Dahua Army at all.
.Especially since the confrontation these days, it seems that the other side can only fire artillery, which is the kind of artillery strikes that go off occasionally and are not intensive.
If you don't see the Great Chinese Army taking action, you will naturally have the idea of contempt. Of course, not everyone has this idea. For example, 10,000 of the 40,000-strong army once defended Shuncheng and interacted with the Great Chinese Army.
Having fought against each other, they knew very well how lethal the opponent's artillery would be once it unleashed its power.
It's a pity that no one believes what these ten thousand soldiers say now. If they talk too much, they are considered cowards. After one or two times, they simply stopped talking, but these soldiers still secretly thought in their hearts.
The decision is that when the charge is launched tomorrow, they must charge at the back. If the battle situation goes bad, they will turn around and run away.
In short, in one sentence, they were extremely afraid of the Great Chinese Army and did not believe that they could defeat the Great Chinese Army. They were ready to retreat and flee at any time.
Liu Cao didn't know this in his sleep. It wasn't until the night passed and the next morning that he walked out of the general's tent in high spirits. Then he had breakfast and then began to order troops on the battlefield.
Looking up at the sky, there was no sun this morning and there was still some darkness in the sky, which made Liu Cao even more happy.
The weather was not so hot, which was more conducive to the advancement of the army. He thought that God was helping him. In this way, when he stood on the general stage, he was in high spirits. But when he finished his long speech, the sky was full of
It was already drizzling.
The appearance of light rain made the weather very pleasant. Amidst laughter, Liu Cao waved his hand, and the 40,000 troops began to advance in the direction they had decided before.
This time, in order to achieve the goal of severely damaging the Chinese army, Liu Cao used all his strength. Only a thousand old and weak people were left in the entire military camp. All the others were dispatched, which shows his determination.
Nearly 40,000 troops were divided into three directions and moved towards the Dahua Army barracks ten miles away.
Obviously, Liu Cao is still somewhat rational and knows some tactics of war. What he plays is the tactic of surrounding three ques and one. He wants to leave a glimmer of hope for the Chinese army to escape.
The 40,000-strong army came from three directions: east, west, and south. Among them, there were 10,000 troops and horses in each direction in the east and west, advancing faster; the main force of the attacking side was in the south, led by Liu Cao personally with 19,000 troops.
The Chinese army is approaching from the front.
After the Xishu army was dispatched, countless scouts were sent out, and news came back one after another. It seemed that the Chinese army did not make any changes, and it was still the same as it should be.
The Dahua Army has no vigilance at all, and so far they have not seen any intention of gathering troops or facing the enemy.
When this news reached Liu Cao's ears, he naturally smiled and thought happily, "Great Chinese Army, Great Chinese Army, since you ignore Yu so much, then you will be defeated in the next battle."
No one else is to blame."
In fact, the targeted Dahua Army did not make any big moves as detected by the Western Shu Army scouts. Moreover, there were many soldiers busy training at the training ground where they were stationed at the camp.
It looks exactly the same as usual.
The reason for this is precisely because the Dahua Army had long been prepared for the stolen camp and had arranged everything four days ago. It was precisely because of its preparation that it was able to act like this when facing the enemy's army.
My mind is calm and there is no trace of nervousness.
Naturally, this is just a superficial phenomenon. In fact, the 10,000 cavalrymen belonging to two regiments, the First Field Army and the Fourth Field Army, did not participate in training today, but were ready to join the battle at any time. Once any of them
When there is danger in the direction, they will rush out and use the fastest maneuverability to ensure the safety of the army.
In the main tent, several generals are also gathered here, and many red and yellow flags are arranged on the sand table.
The red flag indicates the location and territory occupied by the Dahua Army, and the yellow flag naturally refers to the Western Shu Army that wants to attack them.
"Don't be nervous, everyone. We have already prepared for this battle. It is very likely that we can win without even sending cavalry." Wei Chao noticed that everyone was still a little nervous, so he smiled and said in an enlightening way.
After hearing this, all the generals burst into laughter. Everyone knew very well that there was no way the Western Shu Army could be their opponent.
Their opponent is not the Western Shu Army at all.
This time the opponent seemed to be coming menacingly, but they were unable to hurt them if they were well prepared. Their real opponent was the South Vietnamese Army that came later. This time, they faced the military operation of the Western Shu Army and could not even get an appetizer.
Not really. Even the First Field Army and the Fourth Field Army will not participate in the war. The only ones actually fighting are the First Firearms Brigade.
On the contrary, facing the attack of the Western Shu Army, they not only did not attack, but also hid their clumsiness. Thinking about it makes people feel helpless. Of course, it is the helplessness of the Western Shu Army. Even the level regarded as an opponent by the Dahua Army
Even if it's not enough, why isn't it a kind of sadness?
Most of the people in the Dahua military camp were doing what they should be doing, and did not take the incoming army seriously at all. But outside the military camp, Liu Cao was extremely excited. When he learned from the scouts, the three
After Lu Dajun had arrived at their designated positions, but Dahua Army still didn't react at all, he burst out laughing.
"Four miles away, the Chinese army has not reacted at all. The vigilance is so low, it seems that it is just mediocre. Come on, order the army to start attacking. All three armies will advance and rush up like a mountain.
, we want to let the Great Hua Army know that our Western Shu Army is also very capable of fighting." Liu Cao held his waist with both hands, and his face was filled with a look of confidence, giving people a feeling that the overall situation is determined, and everything in the world is under control.
feel.
The messenger quickly passed the order to the east and west armies, and then a total of nearly 40,000 people, including the south route army, came forward in large numbers, shouting various slogans all the way, and they were very determined to attack the Dahua Army.
appearance in.
Of course, not everyone is like this. For example, the 10,000 surviving troops who guarded Shun City before. They have seen the power of the artillery of the Chinese Army and know that those things can hit a distance of five or six miles. Now where they are
The position is actually within the attack range of the opponent's artillery.
Thinking that artillery might fall on their heads at any time, and that they might be killed in the next breath, they would inevitably feel scared at this moment.
When people are afraid, they will inevitably slow down their walking speed, which makes the Western Shu Army, which seems to be charging fiercely, feel like it is dragging.
Of course, once General Liu Cao gave the order, he would not stop because of the retreat of these ten thousand people. More soldiers rushed far away, running two miles and came to the big road.
Outside the Chinese military camp, those with good ears can even hear the shouts of death that started during the drill in the military camp.
At this distance, the Dahua Army did not react at all. This made the soldiers of the Western Shu Army who were rushing in front more confident, and made their attack pace even faster.
However, just two miles away, just when the Western Shu Army thought that the Chinese Army was not ready to respond and they could launch a violent attack, the sound of explosions suddenly came from under their feet.
Boom~boom~boom boom...
Continuous explosions were heard, and the ground seemed to be shaking at this moment, leading to the scene of countless soldiers of the Western Shu Army being blown away.
On the three battlefields in the east, west and south, flowers blossomed almost at the same time, and the sound of explosions was endless. The dust on the ground flew up, and along with it, the bodies of many Xishu soldiers also rose up.
.
Stumped limbs, flesh and blood, various organs that couldn't be named, plus a lot of dust were mixed together in the light rain, rising and falling.
At this moment, the mines issued their most powerful cry--Death to the enemy!
After this kind of landmine developed by the Firearms Bureau was tested in practice and proved to be an effective enemy-killing weapon, Tang Ao gave the order and began large-scale production. Although with the current scale and production capacity of the Firearms Bureau, if you want to achieve
It is not realistic to supply the entire army, but there is no problem in using it in local battles.
