The Struggle of the Reborn Prince
Chapter 65 Operation Winter Thunder
The Yinshan Mountain area starts from north of the Houtao Plain of the Yellow River in the west and ends at Duolun in the east. It consists of Yinshan, Daqingshan and Chahar low hills, including some areas in the north of Xijing Road and the south of Shangjing Road. This east-west mountain terrain is
Such as barriers, an important natural dividing line is formed in climate and agricultural and animal husbandry production.
During the Liao Dynasty, the White Tatars were nomadic in the Yinshan Great Wall. Some of them claimed to be descendants of Shatuo, and they regarded Li Keyong, the King of Jin in the late Tang and Five Dynasties as their ancestors, so they claimed to be King of Jin, Shatuo Yanmen.
The descendants of the Jiedushi regarded the Yinshan area as their hometown.
The White Tatars mainly operated animal husbandry, and a few were engaged in farming. Liao set up post stations in their territory, opened up post roads to the north of the Mo, and set up courts, civic offices and official warehouses. Because they were on the main transportation route.
, the government and the people have developed trade, and some towns and villages have formed, and some simple handicrafts for smelting and casting of copper and iron. Because they are located among different ethnic groups in different cultures, many people are well-versed in multiple languages and scripts, and have a high cultural level, and some specialize in
Act as a general translator for his career.
They first belonged to Liao, after Jin destroyed Liao, and then belonged to Jin. During these chaotic years, they absorbed some Uighurs who moved from the Western Regions, Khitans who destroyed Liao, as well as neighboring Han and Xixia people.
The first step of Zhao Qiong's plan was to restore the old boundaries of Xijing, use Yinshan as a barrier to avoid invasion from the north, and also serve as a base for the expansion of the west and north. Therefore, the strategy he formulated would inevitably be as good as the White Tatars
Collision occurs in the active area, and conflict is inevitable.
After several battles, Zhao Qi was not satisfied, and the generals felt frustrated. The feeling of being able to hit mosquitoes with cannons was so strong that the Tatars were swaying and guerrillas all the time made it difficult for the Xijing Army to capture.
The enemy can only passively pursue, or place the army in key areas to defend, making it difficult to give the enemy a heavy blow.
Zhao Qiong understood that the enemy used guerrilla tactics to deal with him when he was in a weak situation. It showed that the Tatars knew very well that they had encountered a powerful enemy and the tactical choice was also correct. This was the only feasible way for the weak to fight against the strong and subvert the order.
As the strong, although they have obvious advantages, it is not easy to win the anti-guerrilla warfare, and it is very difficult to wipe them out in a short period of time.
Learning from the pain and facing a new enemy. Zhao Qiong knew that he wanted to change his tactics. As a special force soldier in his previous life, guerrilla warfare and anti-guerrilla warfare were compulsory courses for everyone. Now the Tatar's guerrilla tactics are still in the initial primitive stage, relying on life and production
The instinct in the battle is still far from the rich tactics and theories of guerrilla warfare that have been carried forward in later generations.
However, the principle of change remains the same. According to the theory of guerrilla warfare, the basis for survival of guerrillas is the base, that is, the support of local people is needed. The key to success lies in eliminating, weakening the support of the people to the guerrillas, causing the guerrillas to lose intelligence support, and living
Guarantee and manpower sources. In order to win the guerrilla war, we must not only defeat the guerrillas in the military, but also use all means to prevent the contact between the people and the guerrillas. It is difficult to achieve great results without the support of the people, nor can we achieve the ultimate goal.
.
The winning mechanism of anti-guerrilla warfare lies in the asymmetry of tactical use. A major feature of guerrilla warfare is to make up for the disadvantages of weapons with the advantage of numerical power. Having sufficient military strength advantages also becomes an inevitable requirement for the success of anti-guerrilla warfare. That is, to focus on all our own advantages,
Attacking the weak links of guerrillas often organize operations by fighting regular warfare. Lacking sufficient strength advantage will only make the troops passively beaten.
After careful consideration, Zhao Qi decided to mobilize the loyal and brave army and concentrate all units of the Xijing Imperial Army in Dezhou and Dongsheng area. Two brigades of the Kru Army and 5,000 imperial guards on the front line moved into defense, with the first priority of protecting Qiu.
The important task is to no longer take the initiative to attack the enemy. Build a base on the main road to defend the troops, and draw two battalions of the Kru Army as mobile troops to support the forts attacked by the enemy at any time. After the autumn harvest is completed, the army will fully move into a counterattack after the arrival of the army.
…
In the northwest, there is only a short month in autumn. In September, the weather suddenly becomes cold and the rivers are frozen. The tall Yinshan Mountains block the cold air going south. This place is much warmer than the northern foot. The Tatar tribes have turned to the southern foot.
After winter, the battle called "Dong Lei" formulated by Zhao Qiong also began.
The battle is divided into two stages. The first stage is to use lightning speed to send troops to quickly capture the prefectures and counties on the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain and control various key points; the second stage is to enter the clearing and consolidation stage,
The Tatar tribes recruited surrenders, cracked down on the remaining tribes that refused to surrender, completely controlled the area, established grassroots regimes, and were reintroduced into the scope of Xijing.
In this battle, a total of 60,000 troops and 20,000 imperial troops and 30,000 tribal troops were dispatched in this battle, with a total of 110,000 troops, known as 200,000 troops. The entire army was divided into two routes.
Zhao Meng was recruiting envoys from the West Road, leading the loyal and brave army Lion generals, tiger generals, leopard generals, wolf generals, 10,000 brigades, and the second brigade and their subordinate tribal troops. He strengthened the first artillery brigade and was responsible for capturing Fengzhou, Yunneizhou and Tian.
German army; Zhao Yong was appointed as the Eastern Road recruitment envoy, leading all the Kruel Army, Long General of the Loyal and Yong Army, 20,000 imperial guards, and 20,000 tribal troops, strengthening the Second Artillery Brigade, responsible for capturing Fengshengzhou.
The Central Army camp was set up in Dezhou, and Zhao Xiao led the Guard Brigade, the Teaching Brigade and the Bailout Brigade, the Dezhou Garrison Brigade 1, and the Second Brigade were dispatched in the middle to coordinate the two armies' operations, and the Wolf General's Third Brigade and Fourth Brigade were transferred to Xijing Prefecture
The guards of the capital in case of the Jurchens taking advantage of the situation and sneak attacks, and also preventing someone from causing trouble and taking over his own nest.
On the tenth day of September, Zhao Yong took the lead in launching an attack. He concentrated all the troops to suddenly enter Fengshengzhou from Baishui to attack Xinghe County. There were only a thousand Jin troops guarding the city. Seeing that the Xijing army was powerful, how could they dare to fight?
Unable to stand, Zhao Yong mobilized artillery troops to attack the city.
This kind of small county town is mostly made of rammed earth, with a small place and a low city wall. How can it withstand the bombardment of artillery fire? Only two rounds of artillery fire were blown up a thirty-step wide hole, and the Xinghe guards did not dare to
After fighting again, he abandoned the city and broke through, but he could not escape. He was beheaded after leaving the city for less than three miles.
Zhao Yong left a thousand tribal troops to defend the city, and the army Shangyi attacked and advanced. This was a pastoral area, with countless tribes scattered. Their strength was not enough to resist the advance of the army. Zhao Yong commanded his own command with the brigade.
The parts are made of six roads, each road is separated by thirty miles apart, forming a wide front of 200 miles, so that the departments can be connected, and once there is danger, they can be supported nearby, and it is also convenient to grazing, solving the problem of horse grazing.
The Jin army went south to attack Song, and they all used Fengshengzhou as the base for advancement. Therefore, the Jurchens had a strong power here, but the small-scale Jin army in the field did not dare to line up and fight, even if they held the strongholds, they would face the iron mill.
They could not resist the Xijing army that was rolling in. Zhao Yong's army was unstoppable. It took only eight days to march a thousand miles, break through five county towns, defeat the interception of tribal armed forces, conquered tens of thousands of foreign people along the way, and seized two horses.
More than 100,000 cattle and sheep are worth 100,000.
In twenty days, the Eastern Route Army had arrived in Doron and completed the goal of the first phase of the battle. The Jurchens fled to Shangjing, which was farther north, or crossed Tanshan to retreat to Zhongjing. Zhao Yong left his troops to turn south.
After several days of fierce battles over Tianling, crossed the ancient Great Wall, entered the hinterland of Fengsheng Prefecture, and captured Wangyun. At this time, the Jurchens mobilized 30,000 Jin troops stationed in Khan Prefecture, Yongxing and Guihua Prefecture to station in Longshan
It blocked Zhao Yong's troops from continuing to move forward...
Zhao's troops of the Western Route Army launched an attack three days later than East Route Army, but adopted another way of fighting. He used the Lion General to strengthen the Wolf General's Second Brigade to attack the Tiande Army from Heqing Army in Dongshengzhou;
One unit of artillery was strengthened and attacked Yunneizhou from Zhenwu, Dongshengzhou; one brigade of Leopard General and the one of the strengthened wolf generals, and one unit of artillery was launched from Dezhou to attack Fengzhou.
Zhao's motive dared to attack in three groups, because he had meticulous reconnaissance and understanding of the enemy situation. The Tiande Army and Yunneizhou were successively captured by the Western Xia and Jurchens. At that time, Zong Han wanted to let the Dangxiang people restrain the Western Army of the Song Dynasty for him,
He once granted the two states to them, but later he repented and personally led his troops to retake the two states. In order to continue to attack Song, he did not leave his troops to garrison, but gave them to the White Tatars who surrendered to the Jin Kingdom for protection. The Jin Kingdom only
Established a remote leader in Fengzhou.
The White Tatar troops are weaker than the Jurchens, and the population is scattered and mostly nomadic. There are not too many troops stationed in the city. If large corps fight in field battles, it is even more of a matter that the loyal and brave army cannot afford, so it will not be necessary.
We are going to deal with them one by one. Now Zhao Yong's Eastern Corps has launched the first attack, so we will isolate these three states and will no longer get reinforcements. When we go to Beijing to mobilize troops, we are isolated from the vast desert, waiting for them to come.
It's all cold.
Zhang Yue was ordered to lead the Second Wolf Brigade to cooperate with the Lion General. His mission was to cross the Wuliangsuhai Desert and cut off the passage of Tiande Army's enemies to escape to Xixia. This desert was very familiar to him, because the desert was Dasong Hezhong Road.
Their second brigade was a desert combat brigade and often trained in this area. In order to bring the alliance to Xixia, the prince had prepared to use troops to Xixia. They used the Tiande Army as the imaginary enemy to conduct combat exercises, and later the Jurchens snatched it.
Hands, this matter will be abandoned!
This time, the deputy commander asked the Second Brigade to cooperate with the Lion General to fight, and only undertake the task of cutting off the enemy's retreat and collecting the remaining soldiers, which made Zhang Yue very unwilling to accept. Although their Second Brigade had been included in the infantry army, it was actually not as good as the horse.
Military officers, each of them also has a double rider, a horse, a camel, and equipped with a rapid-fire cannon. The firepower does not require any travel officers, and they are even stronger than them.
But it is precisely because the Second Brigade has special equipment and rarely has corresponding tasks, so as soon as he set off this time, Zhang Yue made up his mind to show off his hand... (To be continued. Please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and more
