However, Zhang Kai spoke at an inappropriate time.
"Brother Zhao, I don't deny this plan, but even if we can get around it, can we really win?
I mean, it's just too risky.
Whether it was the night attack tactics I mentioned before or this kind of bypassing tactics, in fact, no matter how you think about it, it is a bit too natural!
After all, we haven't discovered the specific location of their artillery battalion yet. Even if it is detected, the artillery battalion will quickly move its position. It may be in this position one hour and in another position the next moment.
If these artillery are not dealt with, no matter which plan we use, we will suffer extremely heavy losses! "
Zhang Kai's words made everyone fall into silence.
In fact, many people present did not understand the meaning of Zhang Kai's words. For example, Zhang He and Lao Suntou did not understand at all.
Monkey and Wang Er are also half-informed. Even if they have been on the battlefield, they don't know much about how to respond quickly to artillery fire and targeted bombing.
But Zhao Ming understands it very well.
Because in later generations he watched a documentary about the Battle of Songhu.
It is said that our artillery battalion was just a minute late in moving its position. The entire artillery battalion was washed out and the artillery stopped collectively.
This is still the reaction speed of artillery during World War II. It is said that in modern warfare, our heavy-armed composite brigade of US digital mechanics can organize a counterattack within one minute. If the transfer time of the opposite side is about one and a half minutes, it will be defeated by the regiment. destroy.
If it is a second-tier country, it will generally be safe within two to three minutes. After this time, it will also be covered by artillery fire.
If it were Asan's rotten troops, they might be safe within half an hour, and they could bomb with confidence.
The situation in World War II was slightly better. There were elites but also those who didn't know how to do it at all.
It's as powerful as the European battlefield, where the artillery reaction speed is basically quite fast. The Japanese are worse at this, after all, the opponent is here.
The artillery response of the domestic army during this period was relatively inefficient. Firstly, the mechanization was not high. Secondly, the instructions were issued in a chaotic manner. Thirdly, the superiors took chances.
But these are not what Zhao Ming needs to consider.
"These are not important. This is the only way now, isn't it?"
Zhao Ming shook his head and looked at Zhang Kai and sighed,
"If that road is feasible tonight, let's take action. We can only bet that the opponent's artillery battalion is still in Pingqiantun area!
With the help of horsepower, we still have a chance to survive.
If not, just try to rush into the crowd. "
"Of course, we need to do the proper investigation. We will send out some more brothers to investigate this afternoon.
Even if you sacrifice a few brothers, you still have to figure out their general troop deployment! "
Zhao Ming could only be glad now that he was not facing the elite troops of the national army or other warlords.
Otherwise, if you step forward to investigate so openly, you are seeking death.
Time passed little by little, and soon it was nightfall.
Standing in the square, Zhao Ming took a deep breath as he looked at the brothers who were already prepared.
"I won't say much more, Wang Er is out!"
"Master Zhao!"
Wang Er strode forward and gave Zhao Ming a military salute, his expression serious and his back straight.
Looking at Wang Er, Zhao Ming patted Wang Er on the shoulder and said in a deep voice,
"I've told you the plan, it's up to you whether it can come true this time!"
"Haha, don't worry, Mr. Zhao, just leave it to me!"
Wang Er grinned. His task this time was very difficult.
That is to go around to the rear of the Outer Mongols and conduct a surprise attack.
Zhao Ming should have led his men to carry out this task, but considering that he needed to stabilize the hearts of the people on the frontal battlefield, he could only arrange it this way.
Wang Er and two hundred brothers from the Song Suppressing Army wearing cotton armor.
Whether this battle can be successful depends on how big the storm they stir up in the rear.
While arrangements are being made here, preparations are also being made intensively on the other side.
"Leader Geer and Banner Heyan, you two have a very difficult task this time. Lord Qiyan will entrust you with such weapons. I believe you two will not let Lord Qiyan down, right?"
An Tuo, the adjutant from the Begging Department, looked at the two flag masters in front of him with a smile.
"Of course! We have been fully prepared for a long time. Now we are just making final preparations. We can kill these southerners by surprise tomorrow!"
The leader of the Heyan banner clapped his chest and let out a hearty laugh.
"Not bad! Don't worry, we have so much sophisticated equipment. If we still can't defeat this small group of Southern regular troops, then we will have no choice but to die as an apology!"
The leader of the Geer flag also smiled and stroked his beard.
Seeing that both of them were so confident, Adjutant Anto had a bad feeling for some reason.
"That's naturally the best, and you two don't think I'm verbose.
The two reinforcements this time are the few new weapons of our Qiyan Department, and the artillery leader is a top priority. If there is any mistake, you will know the consequences! "
"Of course! This is natural!"
"Yes, the two of us will definitely live up to Lord Qiyan's expectations, and we will deal with these southerners severely!"
Both of them patted their chests and promised that there were so many good jokes, but if they couldn't take down these rats in the ditch, then their lives would be in vain.
After seeing off the adjutant and inspector of the Qiyan Banner Leader, both of them heaved a sigh of relief.
In fact, the two of them took this battle very seriously. After all, they had suffered defeats under Zhao Ming one after another, and this time they came here with the intention of avenging their previous shame.
Because of this, the two seemed a little too nervous.
It was already the second day after the weapons were delivered, but as a result, they still focused on various deductions, supplemented by reconnaissance and intelligence collection.
They even argued for a long time about the deployment of the artillery camp, and they couldn't be more concerned.
But if some regular troops in the south knew about it, they would definitely be laughed to death.
To deal with such a local organization without heavy firepower, it still requires such perseverance.
It's a pity that they haven't read the art of war, and they don't understand the principle of late change.
"Leader Geer, our Balhu tribe are all real warriors, and we will definitely march forward bravely. I just hope that you will not hold us back tomorrow!"
"Hmph! I should be the one telling you this! That heavy machine gun is in your Ba'alhu Department. Since you have such a good thing, make good use of it, otherwise the results will not be as great as those of our Ba'aling Department. , that’s a joke!”
The two flag masters, Geer and Heyan, actually faced each other tit for tat in the camp.
The two people didn't like each other, but when they were brought together and they didn't form a supreme commander, it was obvious that the leader of Qiyan Banner was not really good at fighting.
As the saying goes, there are no two orders in the army. Those who have two orders will be punished, those who retain the order will be punished, and those who fail to order will be punished.
"Now that I don't have to worry about it, Master Geer, you should think about what else you haven't done, right? Don't let others take advantage of you!"
"What's the meaning?"
Hearing what the leader of the Heyan flag said, the leader of the Geer flag couldn't help but be suspicious.
"What do you mean? Didn't you notice there's a path here?"
The leader of the Heyan banner smiled coldly and pointed at a sheepskin map hanging behind him that had been compiled and reported by the scouts.
"You mean here, haha! Don't worry, I asked the previous prisoners about this road.
The end can indeed reach the vicinity of Huozhongtun, but it is not a problem. Near the end is a mountain stream with rapid water flow. It is not a road at all, so how can we reach it by touching it? "
The flag owner of Geer chuckled indifferently.
