Chapter 341 Leaping into the Liaodong hinterland plan
"Wu Weibo bravely won the three armies, Ma Mou admires him! Come and let us drink this bowl of wine, and you can tell us the auspiciousness of killing the thief chief this time." At the reception banquet, Ma Xu brought a large bowl full of wine.
Jiu ran up to Wang Er and toasted to him. As a general who was good at battle formations, Ma Xu admired Wang Er's style of fighting from the bottom of his heart, and even imagined that one day he could be like Wang Er.
Let’s take on the heroic feat of riding a thousand miles alone.
"The commander-in-chief is so ashamed of Wang Er! There is nothing to say about killing the thief leader Hauge. It was just a wave of underhanded shots. Who would have imagined that he actually poked the hornet's nest of Jianlu, good guy, hiding in the old forest
Thousands of people came here to look for us, but we were in such a panic when we chased them. We lost more than forty brothers during the escape, which was not worth it. I thought I would go to the Haizhou area first and find an opportunity to run back to Jin.
I went to Zhouzhou, but more and more soldiers gathered around me, and finally I reached Daning. I had to ask the two division commanders to support me with some military resources, so that I could take my brothers to Tianjin and return to the battlefield in Jinzhou by sea.
Go up." When Wang Er said this, there was no joy at all in killing Hauge, but only the fear of fleeing in embarrassment and the anxiety of how to deal with Ren Shuangyou when he returned to the battlefield in Jinzhou.
"Wang Er, you kid can't go back to the Jinzhou battlefield. General Ma and I will report to the Military Command Hall to formally transfer you and the brothers who are following you to the Daning battlefield." Ma Youliang shouted fiercely.
After a bowl of wine, he told Wang Er his thoughts and wanted to leave as soon as he came. How could that be a good thing? Back then, Ren Shuangyou poached Wang Er away after a big drink, and Ma Youliang still regrets it to this day.
"Old platoon leader! I'm afraid it's not possible, right? The Jinzhou battlefield is at its peak, and I led my men to Daning. General Ren will blame me."
"Are you still a loyal person? I didn't see it. Jinzhou is indeed very busy now, but we need you more here. In a few days, Mr. Ma and I will launch a big operation. You just left Jianlu
There's a gap in the territory, and it's time to use you."
"Platoon leader, what do you mean? You are not going to fight from here to Jinzhou, right?" Wang Er asked Ma Youliang in disbelief.
"You still have some knowledge! It's pretty much what you think. The military commander's plan is for the cavalry division led by General Wu and Ma to leap into the hinterland of Liaodong, conduct a surprise attack, penetrate the Qing army's hinterland defense line, and leap to the southern Liaoning line. This is
One of the march options in this battle plan."
Using a cavalry division to leap forward from the direction of Daning to the hinterland of Liaodong was the combat mission given to Mayu Liang by Zhu Youjian and Junlingtang. This battle was different from the previous ones in that there was no requirement to capture cities and territories. All they had to do was
Disrupting the entire Liaodong area. Disrupting the Qing army's deployment will, firstly, reduce a certain amount of pressure on the Jinzhou defense line, which is struggling, and secondly, it will free up preparation time for the upcoming Liaonan liberation war. It is best to allow the Qing Dynasty to
The army is tossing back and forth!
In addition to causing trouble, there is another requirement - to withdraw safely and not let the Qing army make dumplings. There are three expected retreat routes. One is to directly penetrate the hinterland of Liaodong like Wang Er and others, and connect with Liaonan.
The army will join forces: the second is to withdraw to Daning after the chaos is completed; the third is to withdraw to the vicinity of Huludao and be supported by the navy, and then return to the pass by sea. As for which one to choose at that time, it depends on the development of the war. If it is stipulated in advance for them
The retreat route made it easy for the Qing army to seize the loopholes and make dumplings!
When Zhu Youjian first proposed this idea, the people in the military command hall couldn't figure out why they would send more than 10,000 people there without taking up space? Isn't this a waste of money? Until Zhu Youjian asked them, what happened to the previous raids?
Could it be that the Ming Dynasty had taken advantage of it? Only then did this group of people think about the problem. The battle was fought in the courtyard of Beieren, and the celebration banquet was held in his own courtyard. This had always been Zhu Youjian's expectation for the Liaodong war.
Without finding something for the Qing Dynasty to do through the Daning front line, the strategic layout of the north-south dual lines cannot play its due role. In the past, the bandits and the Manchu Qing were doing things here and there, but now the Ming Dynasty wants to provide the Manchu and Qing Dynasties with something to do.
Pull north and let them feel the pain of fighting on two fronts and being attacked from both sides.
After Ma Youliang drank for a while with Wang Er and others, he said excitedly: "Wang Er, you came too timely. In the past few days, Mr. Ma and I were still worried about not being familiar with the arrangements of the bandits in the heart of Liaodong.
Well, it turns out you are here. The path you just took is too important to us."
"Old sir, to be honest, the way we came here was all about walking around the bandits' army. We took all the trails and old woods. I'm afraid it won't be of much use to the army, right?"
"Why doesn't it have a big effect? You must have gone through countless trials to find this road. As long as you tell the staff all the situations you encountered along the way, they will definitely learn from your experiences.
We have extracted a lot of useful intelligence for combat. What we lack most now is the enemy's situation observed from the perspective of front-line soldiers. Other aspects will be solved by the people from the Jinyiwei Military Intelligence Department, so you don't need to worry about it. From tomorrow on, you and your
My task is to tell the staff what happened along the way, the more detailed the story, the better."
Wang Er and the others are all fierce soldiers. The marching experience along the way is actually quite important, but they don't realize it themselves.
After being pulled over by the staff and told stories for three days, Wang Er and the others were freed. However, these guys were quite enthusiastic about bragging and telling stories about their experiences, and they couldn't wait to tell them for another three days and three nights.
"Mr. Ma, the information brought by Wang Er and others is almost complete. We have to set a date to prepare for action." After getting the information from Wang Er and others, Ma Youliang couldn't wait to start this leap to Liaodong.
Battle in the hinterland.
"The military command hall said that there is still the last batch of military supplies to be delivered. We will start after this batch of military supplies is delivered."
"We are fully prepared now. No matter how much military supplies we have, we can't bring them with us. The Military Command Hall doesn't know why we have to wait for the last batch of military supplies."
After waiting for five days, the last batch of military supplies mentioned by the military command hall finally arrived. Ma Youliang and the others thought that there would be quite a lot of stuff, but they were a little disappointed when they saw the real thing. There were only about ten carts of stuff.
"Two commanders, this batch of military supplies is what His Majesty has specially instructed the army to bring when setting off. Be sure to ensure that each soldier setting off has a pound of sugar and a pound of dry cheese. These two items should not be used lightly until the food is out.
We must make it clear to the soldiers on the front line." The officers of the rear army governor's office who escorted the military supplies made a special explanation of this batch of military supplies after seeing Mayu Lian and them.
It was impossible to bring extra supplies during a long-distance attack, and Liaodong was fighting on the outside, so it was very likely that he would not be able to obtain enough supplies. Just in case, Zhu Youjian specially arranged for people to purchase more than 10,000 kilograms of dried cheese from the grassland, as well as
More than 10,000 kilograms of sugar were prepared and sent to the front line for the soldiers to take with them when they set off. These two things can allow the soldiers to resist for at least two more days. With these extra two days, many solutions can be thought of. chapter
