The last thing I want to say is the principle of concentration of troops. The biggest mistake of the Qi army is that it did not concentrate its troops to the maximum extent. On the contrary, it used multi-point attacks to greatly disperse its troops. At this point, its advantage in troops disappeared, while Qin Because the army has the advantage of long-range shooting of weapons, they use this advantage to turn it into their superiority in strength to block it very well. This is something that the Qi army should not have. From these points, the Qi army's defeat is not wronged at all.
The battle is over, the guns that have been fighting all night have finally calmed down
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" a group of crows flew over the battlefield and they began to peck at the rotten flesh of the corpses on the battlefield. All kinds of organs and limbs were blown to pieces, they became a food for crows, the battlefield was a mess, corpses, guns, and all kinds of defensive equipment
"Oh, soldiers of the Qi army came back one after another
The general looked at everything silently, he couldn't say anything about the loss, he was counting the figures he got later, he felt worried and blamed himself, he lost more than 800 people in just one night, and now the Qi army only has more than 100 people, and this Most of the more than 100 people were injured, such a loss is too great
The Qi army's first attack ended like this, but everything is not over yet
"Victory, victory, victory!" Qin Jun cheered loudly after winning the victory. They felt that they had done a very beautiful thing, but soon they couldn't be happy.
Because the combat planes sent out quickly brought back a piece of news that none of them wanted to see
"About fifty miles away, we saw a large number of Qi army troops. We can't estimate that there are about tens of thousands of them. We also found cannons and cavalry troops." The pilot of the Qin army reported this to lieutenant colonel
"What cannon cavalry?" the lieutenant colonel said in surprise
"Yes" the pilot nodded
"Oh damn." The lieutenant colonel was very speechless, he couldn't say anything, when he heard the news, his heart almost jumped out, so it may have just repelled an attack by the Qi army, and the Qi army appeared soon a large army
"I think we should apply. We must retreat. We must retreat anyway," the lieutenant colonel said nervously.
Immediately, the lieutenant colonel began to draw up a telegram to send a telegram to Xianyang, Qin State
But in Xianyang, Wang Jian looked at the sand table silently, and there was another person who also looked at the sand table silently. That person was Li Mu, but the sand table they saw was different. What I see is a big "world" map. The world used in this map is all known regions of Qin State and some regions that have not yet been known. However, what Li Mu is interested in is not the above geographical environment, but the railway network and railway transportation. The soldiers are fast and the reaction speed is also fast. He was wondering how fast this kind of speed can be.
And Wang Jian has already learned that the front line has finally repelled the enemy's attack, but he is not happy. On the contrary, he is a little worried, because this repelling of the Qi army can only be regarded as repelling an outpost army of the Qi army.
And is there no army behind the Qi army? The answer is yes and there are many
"General, look at this." A staff officer carefully handed over a folder
"What did you say?" Wang Jian asked
"It is said that our people used aerial reconnaissance to discover a large number of Qi army troops. The initial estimate is that the number of troops is tens of thousands. The most important thing is that they also found artillery," Qin Army Staff Officer
"Those who should come will definitely come back, but none of them should have come," said Wang Jian.
"What else?" Wang Jian asked
"There is also the base commander asking if you want to retreat now," the staff officer asked.
"It's impossible to retreat now. The enemy will catch up immediately when they get the situation, and our men must be exhausted after fighting all night. We won't be able to retreat very far."
"It's better to let them stand by and let me think about whether I can mobilize troops from other directions," Wang Jian said.
"Yes sir" staff leave
Then Wang Jian re-entered the state of contemplation. The current situation is still very serious for the Qin army. Although the Qin army has won the battle, the Qin army will still face big problems in the future. For example, there is a huge difference in troop strength. Although the Qi army has an advantage in numbers, the most important thing is that the Qi army now has artillery. Although these artillery are old-fashioned artillery, their power is enough to affect the defense of the garrisoned Qin army.
The Qin army was not equipped with large-caliber artillery, not even small-caliber flat-firing artillery, and all they had was a three-inch mortar that could travel two miles. Designed for infantry, the situation of the Qin army became worse and worse
And Shangwen was very happy when he heard the report from the front line, but Ying Yu told Shangwen very bluntly after reading the telegram
"This is impossible, the Qi army can't underestimate you, let's think of a way to mobilize troops." Ying Yu said coldly
"We have won the battle now," Shang Wen said.
"It's just a temporary victory. You need to know that wars are not fought for a day and a half. It's normal to fight for several months, and the Qi army is advancing rapidly. They may increase their troops at any time, and we only have 300 people. The closest ones are all in Yandu, but there are not many of our people. In this way, the winner can be determined immediately in the following war. The most important thing is that you have to rescue those people, the weapons, ammunition and various supplies used by those people. Goods are consumed day by day and it’s not like doing nothing and fighting, do you understand?” Ying Yu looked at Shang Wen with the eyes of an insider looking at an outsider
"Oh" Shangwen nodded. If Yingyu didn't say it, he really wouldn't know that there are so many things to pay attention to in war.
"It's really strange in this world, that is, it's strange that you people who don't know how to fight can command those who know how to fight and can control the situation of the war." Ying Yu said grumblingly. Ying Yu had to complain and came to Zhao for several days. I feel very uncomfortable with the lack of everything here.
There is no such a big bathroom for bathing. The bed is okay, but the bed is smaller. You know, the spring bed in Zhao country is used by noble families, but Yingyu doesn’t have that kind of thing, so I can’t sleep.
What annoyed her even more was that she wanted to go to the street, but she canceled that plan as soon as she was about to get off the car, because the streets of Zhao country were not clean at all. The country is a mistake Handan is not as interesting as Xianyang
Faced with such a country, Yingyu naturally doesn't want to stay longer. She wants to go to the grassland to see the snowy scenery on the grassland and let the idiot make something called skiing.
The more you don't want to stay, the more you can't stay. Yingyu urges Shangwen every day, but Shangwen can't escape because of the encirclement of the Qin army, especially because he keeps approaching the representatives of all parties to think about the attitudes of all parties.
Foreign Affairs is annoying enough and now it's getting annoying
"The Prime Minister just sent a new message." A clerk handed Shang Wen a telegram and Shang Wen opened it to see what Ying Yu said.
"Just like what you said, I found that the Qi army has more than 300 people and cannon cavalry. Now trouble is coming. 1 people are going to fight [-] people, and there are cannon cavalry. What do you think we will lose in this battle?" Shangwen feels that there is no hope at all. The difference in troop strength is too great.
"We have to urge Zhao Guo to send troops to support them as soon as possible, otherwise we will really go back," Shang Wen said
Regarding the support, there is no Shangwen’s urging. All parties are working hard. A battalion of the Yan Army finally got on the train and set off, and there are more troops on the train. A large amount of weapons and equipment are also quickly loaded onto the train.
Cannons, armored chariots, machine guns, horses, and all kinds of weapons and ammunition were nervously loaded onto the train under the loading and unloading arrangements of the Qin State engineers, and the Qin State could only send out an infantry regiment and an armored chariot company of the Yan State Prince's Army within one day. Others can't do anything because it's beyond their transport capacity and being able to transport a regiment of infantry and a company of armored fighting vehicles is a best effort
Qin's domestic practice of dispatching other troops was directly rejected because the King of Qin would not agree to use ground troops. As for the air troops, due to the weather conditions, it will be delayed for at least three days. In the next few days, Qin will usher in a large-scale snowfall weather. It is very difficult for the aircraft to take off and transfer. For the transfer of the sky army, Qin had to disassemble the aircraft and transport it by rail to complete the transfer task. Qin faced the difficulty of being surrounded by his own army and called the army to make a rescue.
However, the newspapers of the state of Qin used it and they began to participate in the war of words
The media finally learned from an unknown military officer that a 300-man Marine Corps unit of Qin State and related air combat units of the Space Army were besieged at the airport. After the news was published by newspaper reports, Qin State was in an uproar
"Our army was besieged in the country of Yan. When did this happen? When was our army in the country of Yan?" The people of Qin were very confused about the news reported in the newspapers. They didn't know a lot, and the reporter seemed to want to answer it. They surrounded the news platform of the Qin State Staff Department, Guowei's Mansion, and the Prime Minister's Mansion. They wanted to know what was going on in the first place.
"How should we answer reporters' questions?" Wang Jian asked.
"These reporters are really messing us up, do we have to explain everything? Now Qin is almost in chaos here," Wang Jian said.
So the staff members of the staff department began to think of ways to solve the problems of the reporters.
"May I ask why our army appeared in Yan State?" a reporter asked
"The question is this." The spokesman didn't know what to say, but he had a manuscript, so he found the prepared manuscript and began to read it.
"The problem is that our airport in Yan is not protected. Because there is no protection, our airport is often stolen. In order to keep the secret of the plane, we send troops to garrison outside. This kind of garrison is normal and normal. You must know that we also have troops stationed in South Korea. These troops defend our concessions and protect the interests of our businessmen. I don’t think I need to explain too much about this. Is it wrong for the army to defend the people of their own country? I think there is nothing wrong with it. "Qin State spokesman said
"Then why did Qi suddenly attack us and I heard that there was a fierce gun battle, both sides exchanged fire, did we lose?" the reporter asked
"Here it is!" said the spokesman
"How do you say that the relationship between Qin and Qi is not good, and the prime minister of the country insulted our prime minister before? We can't understand this, and we asked the other party to apologize sincerely, but the other party ignored it, so the relationship between the two countries was broken. Our country All the diplomats have rushed back and everyone knows about it," said the speech.
"Not only that, they also bully our ally Yan, our Qin and Yan are friendly countries, and Yan has always had business and trade relations with us, Qin. We all know that now they are blatantly invading Yan regardless of the business of our Qin people, and they will soon Can we ignore things like hitting the country of Yan?"
"Obviously we can't just ignore it," said the Qin spokesman.
"As for the situation on the battlefield, I can clearly tell you that our soldiers fought very bravely. In yesterday's fierce battle, our soldiers killed more than 700 people on the other side. You should know that the number of people besieging us exceeds 2000, which shows that our Qin army's combat effectiveness is very strong. We are all confident in this," the spokesman said.
