And after those poor artillerymen abandoned their artillery.Quickly ran to the shore.
The artillery platoon leader lost his gun.Knowing that he will be punished by the military.The sergeant watched as chunks of ice carried the cannon with it.My heart hurts like hell.
"It doesn't matter." Shang Wen immediately came to check the situation of several people.
"My lord, punish me." The artillery platoon leader knelt down and begged.
"Get up. Get up." Shang Wen couldn't pull the platoon leader up with all his strength.
"My lord, I lost the cannon. This is a great crime." The platoon leader cried anxiously.
"Get up, get up. Equipment is a trivial matter, and people are a big thing. As long as people are alive, is there any lack of equipment? It means that the equipment of a regiment is lost. I don't care, as long as people are still there." Shangwen patted the platoon leader on the shoulder and said. .
The platoon leader looked at Shang Wen in surprise.He didn't believe Shang Wen's words.
"It's nothing. Qin State can produce weapons and equipment on a large scale. It's even more advanced than the lost artillery. But people, people are gone. Qin State produces so much equipment, how to arm the army." Shang Wen looked at said the platoon leader.
"Get up first." Shangwen then pulled up the platoon leader and said.
"In the future, everyone should not blame themselves for losing weapons. Qin can produce more weapons, so everyone can rest assured. But there is a premise. People must come back alive for me. People are more important than weapons. Do you understand?" Shang Wen said loudly.
Everyone is silent. "Understood?" Shang Wen asked again loudly.
"Understood." Everyone replied loudly.
337 Heavenly Army Comes to Help
In the face of such a sudden disaster.Shang Wen felt very troubled.In the first place he did not understand why there was so much ice attacking the crossing.Could it be that the Yuezhi people had already taken precautions? If so, the situation of the Qin army who had already crossed the river would be very bad.
Shangwen returned to his tent to search for information.Finally he found what he wanted to understand.
This is Ling Xun.The timing for the Qin army to send troops has already arrived.Just in time for Ling Xun.
Ice flood, commonly known as ice flood, is a hydrological phenomenon in which the water level of rivers rises significantly due to the resistance of ice to water flow.Ice can sometimes gather into ice plugs or ice dams, causing the water level to rise substantially, eventually flooding or bursting dikes, known as Linghong.Ice floods may occur during both the river closure period in winter and the river opening period in season.In layman's terms, there is an ice layer on the water surface, and it breaks into blocks, and there is water flow under the ice, which drives the ice blocks to move downstream.
In fact, the opening period of the Yellow River has not yet arrived, but this time the weather is more abnormal and the weather is abnormally warm.As a result, the Yellow River at a lower latitude arrived first during the opening period.This is also the reason why the Mengwu Department delayed crossing the river.After several days of trekking, Ling Xun finally arrived at the Qin army on the middle line just crossing the river.Disaster today.Just in time for Qin Jun to meet him.
Shangwen felt that something was wrong.From the very beginning, he felt that Qin Jun's progress was too smooth.He needs to discuss with Wang Jian.The sudden arrival of Ling Xun split the Qin army into two parts.If you can't resume supply and other contacts as soon as possible.The situation will be very bad.
"It's Ling Xun." Shang Wen said straight to the point.
"We encountered ice floods. The upstream ice melted and hit our position downstream. The situation is very bad. I don't know how long this situation will happen. Anyway, the situation is very bad now." Shang Wen said with a headache.
"Well, the most urgent thing is to immediately restore the contact with the other side. Shouting out doesn't work at all," Wang Jian said.
"Is there no other way?" Shangwen asked.
"It's too far away, the arrow can't reach it." Wang Jian said.
"Use cannons, or flying pigeons. In short, we must restore the supply line as soon as possible. Let the army on the other side enter a defensive state." Shang Wen said.
"Cannon?" Wang Jian said.
"I'll solve this problem." As he said, Shang Wen took out his notebook.Let's draw a blank shell shape.Have someone put communication strips inside.
After Shangwen finished drawing, he immediately asked people to do it.
"How many people are there on the other side?" Shang Wen asked calmly for the time being.
"The latest situation is that there is probably a cavalry brigade, a reorganized division, an infantry regiment and an artillery battalion on the other side. The total number is about 3 people." Wang Jian replied.
"Oh my God." Shang Wen said with a headache.With so many people, the food alone is busy enough.
"I want to know, where is the spaceship's airship?" Shang Wen immediately thought of the Air Force.At present, only airships can restore this situation.
"They happen to be near us." Wang Jian said.The airship has nothing to do now.Therefore, they always follow the army very leisurely.
"Let them restore the supply line." Shang Wen said.
"That's the only way to go. I'll give the order." Wang Jian said proactively.
Said Wang Jian began to give orders.
There is simply no way to get through the ground supply channel.
"By the way, let someone check the upstream situation. See if there is a suitable channel. We need to get through the supply line as soon as possible. The sooner the better." Shang Wen said weakly.
"The sooner the better. The sooner the better." Shang Wen sat down and took a rest.
Qin Jun moved very quickly, and they began to clean up the river crossing.The ice is expanding, and the ice that cannot be squeezed is expanding on both sides.Qin Jun had to start moving a large amount of supplies.
The airship soon flew over the river crossing.First of all, they have to convey Wang Jian's order to the troops on the other side, and they must first restore the command connection of the troops on the other side.
The artillery also fired.It's a pity that the other side doesn't understand what is going on here.They cursed and accused each other of taking the wrong medicine.After they received Wang Jian's order to restore communication, they began to enter the defensive state.The cavalry began to retreat.The infantry began to move to occupy the pass of Helan Mountain, and then dispatched elite troops to occupy the commanding heights.
At this time, the airship troops are very busy. First, they have to unload all the weapons and equipment, then load a large amount of food, and transport the ammunition to the opposite shore.But this mode of transportation is really limited.
Faced with such a dilemma.The Army on the ground finally agreed to cooperate.They began to ask the airship to carry the cable to the other side of the river.They need to use cables to transport supplies.In order to expedite the transportation of supplies.
Airship units are cooperative.Because they see that their value has finally come out.They kept carrying a large amount of supplies and then dragged a long cable and flew over.Throw the rope to the opponent.The opponent tried to find a way to set up on a high platform.You can use wood or a mound of soil.Anyway, it's their own business.
The airship quickly unloaded the supplies, and then quickly flew back to the other side.In this way, the five airships shuttled back and forth.These are not the most important.Space Force ground support personnel began to carry out various tasks, opening up temporary takeoff and landing sites, and conducting weather tests, although only the barometer was the most useful.And also very precious.It takes a lot of work to make.But they still have to provide the most basic ground support.
This time the Celestial Army finally came in handy.But generally speaking, the supplies of the Qin Army still cannot meet the needs of more than 3 people.Supplies are still scarce.If you exchange fire with the other party at this time.The situation is very bad.
Sometimes, what is really afraid of, what to come.Qin Jun made such a big move, but the Yuezhi people didn't make any movement for more than 20 days.In addition to the communication situation, they need to ride the transmission situation.There is also the problem of the reaction of the Yuezhi people. They think it is the disturbance of the Qin army.Harassment against the Qin army.King Yuezhi just issued an order to send troops to harass Qin.
Yueshi didn't pay much attention to Qin Jun's operation from the beginning.But as bad situations spread to the ears of King Yuezhi one after another.Only then did King Yuezhi realize that something was wrong.
He immediately began to order the returning army to go out immediately.His reason was that Qin Jun was likely to come after him this time.He didn't want the Qin army to attack the Yuezhi hinterland from this direction.
When the Qin army was crossing the river, this large army had already begun to dispatch, with a number of about 15.In the battle with Mengtian, they suffered heavy losses, plus a blizzard.Their numbers have dropped dramatically.Now, they are about to move out again.
338 Defensive battle
The main force of the Qin army crossing the river began to build fortifications along the Helan Mountain line.Their fortification model is arranged according to the defense in depth of Mengtian in the north.
A large number of soldiers began to use bayonets, shovels, and picks to dig on the spot.At the same time, some soldiers began to lay out barbed wire, and the artillerymen dragged the cannon up desperately.There are also some engineers crossing the river.Most of these engineers went to re-establish logistical supplies.Therefore, the first batch of mines rationed to the engineers was not laid.
The defense line of the Qin army was 35 miles long, and the defense in depth was [-] miles.In this long and narrow defense, the Qin army entered a defensive state.The other side is trying every means to restore normal supplies.But facing Ling Xun, they were also helpless.
Just when the Qin army was halfway building the fortifications.A [-]-member Yuezhi team entered the Qin army's defensive circle by mistake.At first they just thought it was a small group of Qin troops.But when they climbed up and saw Qin Jun*'s people building fortifications.Immediately realized something was wrong.So they began to send a large number of liaison personnel to report to their generals.
Just when the Yuezhi thousand-man team accidentally discovered Qin Jun.Qin Jun's scouts and lookout posts also spotted each other.The cavalry of the Qin Army immediately dispatched to destroy this face-to-face enemy.
The opponent didn't seem to be eager to fight, and when they saw the cavalry of the Qin army dispatched, they took the initiative to retreat.Qin Jun withdrew.The Yuezhi cavalry stepped forward to harass.But he didn't dare to get too close.Because the opponent has artillery.In this way, the two sides pulled back and forth without fighting.Qin Jun had no choice but to withdraw from his position on his own initiative.
The Yuezhi cavalry is considered elite, they also know how to fight.Instead of blindly adopting the tactics of slamming and dashing.
