In the camp, Li Ningyu and Henry Herman were chatting. After half a day of chatting, Li Ningyu learned about the approximate military strength of the French Expeditionary Force. During this period, the Iron Soldiers also handed me a detailed report of the specific battle harvest.
During this ambush on the French advance team, a total of 272 French soldiers were killed, and 309 repeating rifles, more than 13,000 bullets, and various living supplies were seized.
And just after Li Ningyu read the details handed over by the iron soldiers, Li Ningyu immediately asked the secretary to write a battle report. After stamping the seal, he asked a correspondent to send the letter to the Ministry of War in the capital, and then rushed in from the camp.
A spy.
"Report, military academy! The French vanguard appears 10 miles ahead!" the spy said while kneeling on one knee. Upon hearing this, Li Ningyu immediately stood up and said: "All reconnaissance teams are dispatched! Scout again! Report in 30 minutes!
”.
"Yes!" After the spy nodded in agreement, he immediately stood up and left. Li Ningyu said to the iron soldiers on the side: "Gather the team immediately! Let all the officers come to the camp. I have new orders!".
"Yes!" Then the iron soldiers ran out quickly, and then things started to get tense and busy outside the camp.
After ordering the iron soldiers, Li Ningyu then opened the military map and checked it. After the officers in the camp arrived, Li Ningyu began to order: "The first platoon and the second platoon stayed at the main road of Beiqi Valley, and in the valley
Prepare large rocks and rolling logs to attack and block the French army, and try to eliminate the French vanguard before the French army arrives! Then rush to the Red River Ferry!"
"Yes!" Zhang Dahu and Ma Li, the two platoon leaders, stood up and said, and then Li Ningyu gave the order: "Time is 10 minutes. The other platoons have brought all their equipment and supplies and are ready to leave! The target is the Red River Ferry!".
"Yes!" Everyone said in unison, and then the camp began to get busy, but Li Ningyu had already brought the iron soldiers, Henry Herman and dozens of soldiers, but they were already on the way to the Red River Ferry. Along the way, Li Ning
While communicating with Henry Herman in French, Yu kept telling him a little bit about my next plan.
In this battle, Li Ningyu does not intend to fight against Guba head-on. Although Li Ningyu has Henry Herman as a hostage, Li Ningyu will never bet on the lives of his soldiers. With a number of 300 to 6,000, Li Ningyu will not be able to win at all.
There is no advantage at all, and they also carry a large number of mountain artillery.
However, Li Ningyu could not directly let the French army pass. Fortunately, when Li Ningyu was in military school, he learned a lot about the strategies of defeating more with less. Among them, the great leader had his own set of tactics, guerrilla warfare.
The fundamental meaning of guerrilla warfare is to fight on the move, not escapism or desperation. The essence of guerrilla warfare is that when the enemy advances, we retreat, when the enemy retreats, we advance, when the enemy is tired, we attack, and when the enemy flees, we pursue.
And Li Ningyu will fully follow the great leader's combat method, a combat method based on the five basic principles of rationally selecting combat locations, quickly deploying superior forces, rationally allocating work, rationally selecting combat opportunities, and quickly retreating after the battle is over.
According to the seven principles of guerrilla tactics, first: I will concentrate superior forces to fight, disperse the guerrilla French army, and delay the advancement of the French army; second: we must establish a mass base during the battle, because with their participation and cooperation,
In order to achieve the greatest effect; third: once the enemy's situation is unknown, do not fight with it; fourth: we will retreat immediately when the enemy team enters; fifth: adopt the form of running circles against the enemy, and set up at the main advantageous locations along the Red River.
At an ambush point, once you cause concentrated fire damage to the enemy in a short period of time, immediately withdraw from the battle and go to the next ambush point; Sixth: For distant enemies, first disrupt the enemy and then use an assault method; Seventh: Avoid
Take advantage of the enemy.
The main situation of guerrilla warfare is that because one's own troops are small and the firepower is weak, it is difficult to conduct long-term operations independently. The only way is to actively create conditions and use mobility to proactively break the enemy into pieces, consume the enemy's combat power, delay the enemy's actions, and time.
, and mislead the enemy's direction, and finally form strong psychological pressure before victory can be achieved.
At this moment, when Li Ningyu had just arrived at the Red River Ferry, a series of loud noises sounded in the main road of Beiqi Valley: "Rumble...".
Bursts of deafening bangs woke up the French commander Guba from his sleep a few miles away. Then he felt a violent earthquake and a huge roar of gas.
At this time, as the vanguard, the 100 French troops were stunned by a series of attacks, because their action was to come to explore the road, but after seeing the place where I fought with Henry Herman's advance team yesterday,
After that, they wanted to wait for a while, but the captain who commanded the team thought about the murderous look in his commander Guba's eyes and ordered the team to move forward carefully.
And then, they entered the ambush circle of the first and second rows. Just when huge rocks fell from the sky, before they could dodge, they were knocked to the ground by the fierce attack, and then there were countless gravel and huge trees.
Falling to the ground, gunshots rang out in waves. Now the soldiers in the camp were using captured French weapons. A continuous shot of five bullets was much more powerful than a single shot.
At this time, based on the bursts of gunfire coming from the distance, the French commander Guan Guba immediately shouted loudly: "There are enemies ahead, ambushing, the whole team is marching quickly...".
Then Guba cursed again. About 30 minutes later, Guba came to the Beiqi Valley main road. At this time, the Beiqi Valley main road was full of corpses of French soldiers, huge stones and scattered pillars.
Corpses completely blocked the road ahead!
Then Guba's face was as gloomy as the sky, but at this time the smoke from the main road in the Beiqi Valley had dispersed, and only some weeds were still burning. Looking at the corpses of the vanguard soldiers being buried, Guba already knew that Henry He
Mann's advance team should have suffered the same fate as the vanguard, being completely wiped out, but the biggest question in Guba's mind at this time was who this group of enemies was.
In the following hours, some of the thousands of French troops guarded high places, some began to advance, and some tried their best to move away the boulders blocking the main road in the Beiqi Valley. At this time, Li Ningyu had already
I ordered the second, third and fourth platoons to gather all the boats at the Red River Ferry. Looking at the more than 90 large and small wooden boats in front of me, I thought for a while and said: "Wang Hu, leave 11 large boats for the French army and 30 small boats."
Give it to us for our own use, and scuttle the rest on the spot.”
"Yes!" After Li Ningyu finished speaking, Wang Hu immediately agreed, but then Li Ningyu remembered something and asked: "All the ships we requisitioned and scuttled ships will be given to the shipowners according to their value, and will be forcibly requisitioned by the French army."
It’s a big boat, tell the boatman first and give them some silver when we come back!”.
