By the way, if Zhao Xin were here, the position would definitely be brightly lit at night, drones would be used, and generators would have to be set up. It didn’t matter how much diesel it burned, the searchlights would love to take care of every inch of land at the foot of the mountain. Turn the hill under your feet into a giant hedgehog, making it impossible for your opponents to bite you.
The problem is, isn't Zhao Wangdian not here? The supplies carried by the "Southbound Detachment" cannot be whatever they want and have everything. The biggest problem with drones is charging, as are thermal imaging infrared night vision devices and large flashlights with 18 beads. The generator is easy to install, but the key is that carrying oil is troublesome.
Take a small diesel generator of a domestic brand from another time and space as an example. It weighs 154 kilograms, has a rated power of 7.5~10kw, and a fuel consumption of 1.1~1.5 liters per hour. It consumes at least 26 liters of diesel in a day.
Although it doesn’t seem like much, each barrel of diesel weighs 170 kilograms, and it takes up a lot of space. If a horse is carrying it, it will only hold two barrels, so we can only rely on crawler transport vehicles; the problem is that even if we bring a crawler transport vehicle, we must first ensure that Have enough fuel to replenish yourself.
But even so, Hu Ji learned the lesson of being attacked by the Qing army in Xiaobai Mountain. Before leaving, he still applied to Zhao Xin for two small generators (one set as a spare), two drones, and dozens of sets of thermal imaging infrared. Night vision goggles, and the kind of large 18-bead flashlight that can stun people to death when turned on, shine for miles, and can only be used for a short period of time.
As mentioned before, the Northern Navy currently has a madness from top to bottom that "I am the best in the world", and neither the Qing army nor Tsarist Russia takes it seriously. Soldiers now have a popular saying in private: Cannons and machine guns teach you how to behave. Liu Sheng was the first to say this, and then it gradually spread.
Even if Zhao Xin was alert and called military officers to meetings many times and repeatedly emphasized the principle that "a proud soldier will be defeated", it is completely impossible to say that there is no mentality of underestimating the enemy in the army!
Well, that's the side effect of using modern weapon systems and tactical systems.
It's not easy to get started at first, because modern weapons and tactics require a soldier's personal initiative and a corresponding level of knowledge; but once you get started, you'll beat all opponents! What followed was a general feeling of underestimating the enemy.
For the Eight Banners troops in an era of mixed hot and cold weapons, especially those strong soldiers stationed in the northwest, it is common to touch sentries and steal camps at night, and the opponents who often fight them complain endlessly. For example, in the 20th year of Qianlong's reign, Ayuxi led more than 20 people in a night attack, disrupting the 30,000-strong Junggar army. The Qing army took the opportunity to launch an all-out attack, and Dawaqi was defeated overnight.
So you think Fu Bao’s behavior of taking 20 people to explore the Bei Navy’s positions at night is considered arrogant? This Wuharian Mongolian man just wanted to imitate his predecessors, earn great military exploits, and honor his ancestors. All it takes is courage, you have to be crazy!
Of course, being crazy alone is not enough, you also need luck, and it is precisely this luck that Fu Bao lacks.
From the moment the Bei Haijun on the position heard the first gunshot, they became alert. Fu Bao and the others' fate was already doomed. Dozens of bullets crackled on the gravel around him, and his companions behind him were shot to death one after another. Fu Bao, who was lying on the ground to hide, knew that he had no way out.
surrender? That is absolutely impossible! The most important thing right now is that someone has to go back and report to Marshal Bao.
With the light that seemed like daylight, Fu Bao observed a sunken earth pit two steps away on the right. His heart skipped a beat, and he used strength on his waist to roll close to the ground. He dodged a few bullets and kept steady. fell into the pit. He took a few breaths with his mouth wide open, calmed down, leaned up and shouted loudly in Mongolian to his living companions behind him:
"Come on! There are only eight hundred of them!"
The shout attracted the attention of the Beihai navy, which was more than two hundred meters away. The bullets roared in instantly, causing countless smoke and dust to be stirred up in front and on both sides of the pit. The pit where Fu Bao is located is almost half a meter deep and about a meter long. There used to be a few stones here. When the Beihai Navy cleared the firing area, they pried out the stones and moved them away, leaving only one pit.
Fu Bao hugged his head and huddled up at the bottom of the pit. When he felt that the bludgeoning attack had weakened, he slowly stood up, knelt on one knee in the pit, and took out the bow and arrow from the bag behind his back.
Fortunately, the bow was not broken and the arrows were not dropped.
With the mentality of killing one and making a profit, Fu Bao didn't even look around. He just relied on his instincts gained from years of fighting on the battlefield and threw two arrows toward the outside. Before he heard it, he fired two arrows. There was a scream from the opposite side, and a machine gun bullet that flew from nowhere hit his right hand, and the severed finger flew several meters away with a cloud of blood.
After being shot, Fu Bao felt that his right hand had lost all feeling in an instant, followed by scorching heat and severe pain. It felt like a red-hot iron had been stuffed into his flesh and blood, tearing at his nerves and will. He threw away the bow in his left hand, lay down on the ground, tore off a piece of cloth from his coat under the chain mail, and used his teeth and left hand to tighten the severed part of his right hand tightly. After doing all this, he felt a little exhausted and breathed heavily.
After more than ten seconds, Fu Bao calmed down, took out the dagger from his waist with his left hand, stood up with all his strength, and rushed towards the sun-like light without hesitation.
A small-scale sneak attack by the Qing army left the Beihai Navy on the position as if they were facing a formidable enemy. After cleaning the battlefield and counting the bodies, it was found that a total of 19 Qing troops were killed and wounded. One of our own troops was killed and two were injured, but the weapons and ammunition were not lost. . Several wounded soldiers of the Qing army were seriously injured. After all, machine gun bullets were no joke. Although after some treatment, one of them survived in the end; however, that one was still alive and could not be interrogated at all.
Based on the clothes and weapons carried by these Qing troops, Mi Shilang concluded that these guys came to check the sentry, and the purpose was nothing more than to find out the deployment of their own troops.
At daybreak, Mislang sent a squad of the reconnaissance company down the mountain to take a look. Nineteen war horses were found behind a hill five miles away to the north; judging from the horse hoof prints left at the scene, there should be two missing. match. Afterwards, the squad followed the horseshoe footprints and chased westward to the Tesi River. However, at this time, many Mongolian cavalry appeared on the other side of the river, so they had to return.
Although the Qing army's night reconnaissance operation caused heavy losses to Baoning's personal troops, the results were huge. When Baoning and others learned that the North Korean navy on the other side only had 800 people, they were overjoyed.
"No wonder we called a detachment. Not even one battalion of the Eight Banners has enough troops! Such a small number of people want to stop my tens of thousands of troops. They really overestimate their capabilities!" Baoning couldn't help but sneered when he thought of this, and then began to think about how to eliminate them at the minimum cost. The North Navy on the other side.
The Qing court had many battles with the Beihai Navy over the years. The only time the Beihai Navy suffered a big loss was the night attack on Xiaobai Mountain. After that, those Sauron soldiers who had the chance to escape were promoted by Qianlong to the second-class guards of the Qianqing Palace. Ba Tulu was given the title of "Yong" and was rewarded with wearing a yellow mantle.
Considering that the North Navy's artillery was really fierce, Baoning thought about it and discussed it repeatedly with Counselor Ai Longa and others, and finally proposed to change the human sea tactical strategy of "the army crosses the river in three ways and gathers to surround it" to night time attack.
Although attacking at night will cause many command and coordination problems such as the inability to use flags and poor communication of orders, the power of the opponent's firearms will also be greatly weakened. At the very least, the aiming of the cannon will be a problem. But what Boryeong and the others didn't expect was that the North Navy not only had long-range cannons, but also close-combat grenades...
The number of Qing troops dispatched was finally set at 13,000, with two hills and four thousand on each side. To deal with the Northern Navy, it was useless to use the "Ten Sieges" passed down from ancient times. They had to attack ten times. At the same time, Baoning would personally lead 5,000 troops to lurk on the other side of the Tes River. Once the troops responsible for night attacks on both sides succeeded, he would lead his troops to rush across the river and kill the fleeing Northern Navy.
Marshal Bao's idea was unanimously approved by everyone who participated in the military meeting, and even Eyiduob Dorzi of Tushetu Khan's Department also agreed; what this man thought was that the Beihai Navy would not raise flags at night anyway, It's impossible to figure out which Zasak's men the opponent comes from, so it's not like fishing in troubled waters.
After explaining in detail the offensive routes and tasks of each ministry, Baoning finally said: "The launch time of each ministry is tonight at Haizheng. Shen Zheng is eating, Youmo is dispatched, and Xu Zheng is in attack position."
...
Michelang had a bad feeling. He learned from the report from the reconnaissance company that the Qing army on the other side of the river had divided into two groups. One group went north to the lower reaches of the Tesi River sixty miles away; the other group went southeast and was stationed twenty miles away. On the river bank inside and outside.
He had a set of drones on hand that were being used by the reconnaissance company. The farthest control distance of this thing without interference is 7 kilometers, and the flight time is 27 minutes; the Qing army camp is 15 kilometers away from the Beihai Navy position, stretching for dozens of miles. It is impossible to completely see clearly, and you can't stand at the opponent's camp Are you doing some reconnaissance at the door? Besides, you really treat other people’s sentries as fools!
Mi Shilang thought to himself, is this his plan to divide his troops into three groups to cross the river? Although the Qing army did not fight, after all, the number of people on our side was so small, and the equipment and supplies were limited. If the enemy surrounded them like a tide and launched a desperate attack, the ammunition on hand would not be enough to support such a large-scale defensive battle. Once the position is breached and falls into melee combat, let alone the casualty rate, it is certain that the position cannot be defended.
It's not that he hasn't thought about the idea of fighting mobile warfare, but this is a river valley prairie, and no matter how hard the infantry's feet are, they can't outrun the horses. Facing a large-scale cavalry charge, it is impossible for a small number of people without a solid position. Moreover, this Qing army is obviously going to take the retreat of the eastern front troops. If he goes into the mountains to circle with the enemy, the Qing army can leave part of its troops to consume with him. The large group of troops should continue to move east along the station line.
He is a veteran when he started his business in Beihai Town. He started out as an illiterate peasant who shivered when he heard the sound of cannons. He followed Zhao Xinnan in the northern expedition for eight years and fought countless big and small battles. It was just a course in the officer training class. I have been promoted five times, and each time I have been promoted to a level, from deputy company commander to regiment commander, my sense of smell on the battlefield is very sensitive. It was precisely because of his calmness and carefulness that Zhao Xin made him the deputy captain of the "Southern Detachment" to make up for Hu Ji's shortcomings.
At noon, he expressed his thoughts to Hu Ji behind him through the radio. Huji also felt that there was a lot of pressure on Chahantuoluohai, so he thought about it again and again, and finally told Mishilang that a reinforcement company would be transferred from Bayanbulak early tomorrow morning.
With four more platoons of troops about to be in hand, Mishilang felt a lot more relieved, but the uneasy feeling never subsided. So in the afternoon, he inspected the position fortifications on the north and south hills one by one in the order of the company and battalion, held a meeting with the officers, and requested that the vigilance of night sentry be strengthened. Two bonfires were set up and the number of outposts on duty in each shift was increased from two to three to avoid being exploited by the Qing army again.
At dusk, the reconnaissance teams sent to the north and south lines to monitor the movements of the Qing troops reported that there was no movement from the Qing troops on the north line, while a large number of Mongolian militiamen on the south line were building wooden frames on the other side, seemingly preparing to build a pontoon bridge. After hearing this, Mishilang did not let them come back, but ordered the northern and southern platoons to continue to stay on the other side of the river to monitor the enemy's movements.
The sun finally set, and a crescent moon rose. The wind was cold and clear on the grassland at night. Whether it was Tangnu Mountain behind him or the Qing army camp in the distance, they were all shrouded in a vast and deep night.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, that is, at the end of the Youyuan period, the Qing troops from the North, South, and Middle Roads took advantage of the darkness and took advantage of the darkness. The Qing army on the northern front was led by Ai Long'a, the counselor and minister of Uliasutai, and his deputies were Xingfu, the deputy commander of Uliasutai, and Taijimani Bazaerhe from the Zasak Tuhan tribe. The chief and deputy generals leading the troops on the southern front were Aktong'a, the deputy capital commander, and Jipunchukdash, the second-ranking officer of the Saiyinnoyan tribe.
In order to avoid the noise caused by the vibration of the horses' hooves, no one in the Qing army rode a horse, and everyone walked silently.
The moon in the sky sometimes appears in the clouds, and sometimes disappears behind the high mountains. The troops of the Northern and Southern Qing troops marched in double rows, dragging out for more than five miles from beginning to end, like a giant snake meandering on the grassland. In the middle, the Qing army led by Baoning himself quietly left the camp in a group of 500 people. They opened a huge fan on the grassland and slowly approached the west bank of the Tesi River under the cover of grass and darkness.
"Something's wrong!" The Beihai Navy platoon leader squatting in the grass suddenly shuddered. He immediately picked up the night vision device and observed it for a while. Except for the sound of the wind blowing the weeds and the sound of water flowing in front, there was nothing else. .
"Platoon commander, what's wrong?"
"Stubborn donkey, do you realize why it's so quiet across the street tonight?"
The scout nicknamed "Stubborn Donkey" also frowned when he heard this. After listening for a while, he was stunned and said: "Why doesn't the wild wolf howl anymore? The old bird doesn't howl either!"
"The situation is not right! Let everyone be more vigilant!"
At the same time, on the river bank two miles east of where the scouts were, hundreds of naked Qing troops stepped into the chest-deep river with armor on their heads containing bows, arrows and daggers. . Two miles behind them were four thousand Mongolian archers lying in the grass, ready to attack.
Time passed minute by minute, and there was still no movement on the river bank. Thirty Beihai navy squatting in the grass nervously paid attention to all the movements around them.
"Oops!" the reconnaissance platoon leader cursed secretly, and a red dot suddenly lit up in the upper right corner of the night vision field of view, which was a signal to him that the battery was out of power. He hurriedly turned off the power, opened the cover, took out the battery from his pocket and prepared to replace it.
At this moment, a dense "boom boom" sound suddenly came from the dark night dozens of meters away. The scout, who was called "Stubborn Donkey", knew something was wrong and yelled "Concealed", holding the rifle in his hand. Then opened fire. However, as soon as he finished speaking, a hail of arrows arrived. With a clanking sound, the arrows hit the helmet and made small dots.
Fortunately, the Northern Navy learned from past lessons and made all the scouts wear stab-proof clothing and neck braces. The problem is that although the arrows fired by the Qing army were not fatal, some people were still injured.
In a flash of lightning, Ye Chu, the co-leader of the team, pulled out a short knife from his waist and rushed forward from the left wing of the Beihai Navy with more than twenty of his men.
Intense gunshots rang out instantly on the river bank, followed by a booming explosion, which was a grenade thrown by a North Korean navy scout. In the brief flash of light and shadow, the faces of the Qing soldiers who had entered within twenty meters were all fierce and ferocious.
