Chapter 141
For the "Chinese Army", they did not have so many concerns. (After completing the previous battle, Wei Zhen planned to march forward.
The last time the captives, including the "Mu Tuyi" people and Zhao Xu's subordinates, have been confirmed at this moment that they will surrender to Zhao Fubo's subordinates. Especially Zhao Xu's subordinates, they actually said that they had long yearned for life in Huangsha City, but unfortunately they have never been able to escape from the sea of suffering.
As for the soldiers of "Lisuyi", they had no more ideas. When they saw Amina and Lu Kengding, they had already decided who they wanted to follow. Then Amina first organized all the prisoners who were willing to "invest" into multiple 10-person teams. Then they replaced all the officers with "Chinese Army". Especially those who were brought by themselves, those under the "Variety Saint" Ejitane came to serve as the squad officers, and Wei Zhen drew some experienced lower-level officers from his army to serve as the 100 officers.
With them, the fortress behind is not so easy to capture. The prisoners and "Muziyi" soldiers who were sent to Zhao Xu were about 2,000, plus 500 infantry and 3 cannons, which is enough for the fortress to defend.
"With this fortress guarding the main road, I think we don't need to arrange more troops later. Mrs. Amina, we can start the next battle!"
Wei Zhen had a preference for attack. As a general, waiting for the enemy to make moves is not his favorite choice. Especially his "Chinese Army" under his command has high combat strength, so he really doesn't like it when he keeps stopping like this.
Amina's subordinates used the past few days to collect some information nearby, and she had already made new plans.
"Well, Uncle Wei, that's it. You plan to march, and I plan to leave with my subordinates. You know, there are many roads nearby that the enemy can detour. Although there is this fortress, I think when the two sides meet, they will naturally take advantage of the familiar terrain, so I have to lead the team to leave!"
This is a strategy that had been arranged as early as the beginning of the march, that is, to use detour to detour, and sneak attacks to attack. The combat methods of the "Mu Tuyi" army are not difficult to understand for Amina and Lu Kengding, or many of the fighting styles were thought out by Zhao Weinan and taught the generals.
"But Uncle Wei, can you give me the team of Lu Kengding? Maybe we can also recruit some troops of the Muzhaiyi people. After all, it is all in our hands!"
There is no meaning to Wei Zhen. After all, Lu Kengding has put in a lot of effort to take down the fortress that was 3,000 people this time. If they recruit thousands of soldiers after they go out, it would be too easy to fight this battle.
"Of course there is no problem, but Mrs. Amina, it is best to be careful about everything. If you cannot surrender, you don't need to force it. Anyway, we will be able to reach the vulture's nest in less than a month."
Amina knew that Wei Zhen did not exaggerate these words, and he had full confidence in the ability of the "Huaxia Army". Amina was considering that in the future, he might be able to defend the fortresses with the help of the "Mu Tuyi" army and the surrendered soldiers in Zhao Xu's army and a few "Huaxia Army" soldiers. In addition, what he was worried about was that Wei Zhen had only 30 artillery pieces in his hand, which might not be enough by then.
"Don't worry, I hope that in the next camp we have established, there will be so many soldiers to guard us! Uncle Wei, I think in those fortresses, should we just fire a field cannon of Hell Messenger, and if it is there, we can control a large area. As long as the opponent's fire is suppressed, the reincarnation cannons in the fortress will be enough to deal with the opponent's infantry."
Wei Zhen knew that Amina was worried that the number of artillery soldiers she had was too small, and it was indeed the case. The grenadiers in the "Chinese Army" had only 2,500 people, and they controlled 25 artillery pieces. This time, the artillery fire brought by Wei Zhen gave the 5 "Hell Messenger II-type field cannons" defended by Pearl Sprite Xie Jielai Duer, and gave Zhao Fubo 10 artillery pieces of the same type. The reason is that this cannon with a larger range is far less flexible than the curved cannon in mountain combat.
According to the organization of the "Huaxia Army", these armies were actually established according to the division-level standards. The artillery teams originally prepared a 5,000-person artillery team. Unfortunately, China's production capacity has been put into production of "basic export firearms". The artillery required by the "Huaxia Army" is complex and the production speed is quite slow, so it cannot be fully organized for the time being.
"Okay, things are decided so. I think if we fight this battle well, we can then build the entire logistics route. I think they have sufficient ammunition in these fortresses for defense. Mrs. Amina, please rest assured, everything will go as planned!"
Amina was inconvenient to say more about Wei Zhen's command. After all, her mission was to command the anti-sneak attacks between 1,000 "ghost army" and 500 subordinates from her mother-in-law "The ever-changing Saint" Ejitane. The entire army's actions were still decided by Wei Zhen.
As everything was discussed, Amina led her subordinates out of the camp that night. She rode a two-year-old horse from the "Chinese Horse" horse tribe, and the soldiers under her were riding the "most war horses". After entering the mountains, everyone discovered that these war horses were very sensitive and balanced, whether they charge or walk on the mountain road.
When he was acting with Amina, Lu Kengding knew that it was purely a choice for himself to make contributions. After all, after the battle began, their anti-sneak attack troops were of great use. And the important thing was that if they were lucky, they could intercept a large number of sneak attack soldiers. Maybe they could persuade them to surrender like the army in the fortress. If they succeed, their combat achievements would be good.
Sure enough, they had just been dispatched for less than a day, and the sent people brought back the news to them. It was still done by the "Mu Tu Yi" soldiers under the "Mu Tu Yi" of the mother-in-law "The Variety Saint" Ejitani. The method was still to sneak into the enemy's army and directly find out the news from the soldiers. They didn't even have to put on makeup, because they were originally "Mu Tu Yi" people.
"Madam Amina, this time the enemy sent an army of 10,000 from two groups, intending to sneak attack our fortress from behind and then cut off our way back. I heard that there will be up to 35,000 troops to attack us together!"
