"What's the situation on the right wing? Why haven't they been informed yet?"
As the army marched towards the Xilamulun River, Dorgon remained frowning.
The march these days has been very unsatisfactory.
The casualties of spies every day are really a headache.
The actual manifestation of a large-army battle on the battlefield is often only a short period of time, and the various responses before the war are even more cumbersome.
Just to compete for the initiative on the battlefield, both sides have to rack their brains and use all their strength.
In the reconnaissance confrontation, the Qing army was still at a disadvantage.
If we talk about a battle between large armies and the Qing army was suppressed by the guns and artillery of the National Defense Forces, it is fair to say. However, reconnaissance operations tested the quality of individual soldiers. As a result, the Qing army's spies were still at a disadvantage.
Dorgon is really curious, how do the National Defense Forces train?
However, the Manchu Qing Dynasty used countless methods, but could not get the relevant information.
"The right wing is far away, and it is impossible to report at the moment, or there may be something wrong. I have sent troops there, and I believe there will be news soon."
Faced with his subordinates' answers, Dorgon had no choice but to accept them.
At this time, he did not know that Badali and his remaining defeated soldiers had already walked down the hillside and formally surrendered to the National Defense Forces.
He was still imagining that the three-pronged army would complete its deployment and lay siege to the National Defense Forces in front of him.
Not only is Badali from the right wing unable to come, but Manzhu Xili from the left wing is also in trouble.
The left wing was a recognized weakness on the Wehrmacht side.
Lou Fu only deployed one Security Division 99 here.
We don't expect the 99th Division to achieve any breakthrough. As long as it protects the left wing of the army, the mission will be completed.
Wang Yaowen, the commander of the 99th Division, is also an officer with a steady temperament.
After receiving the order, he executed it meticulously.
He deployed the entire division in a mysterious and critical position.
This place is about thirty miles away from the army in the middle.
Although invisible to the naked eye, the sound of gunfire from the middle can still be faintly heard.
The reason why this distance is mysterious and critical is that for their infantry, they can effectively protect the flanks of the army.
If Horqin's left wing, which is full of beads and practicing rituals, wants to bypass the 99th Division and attack the center, it must worry about being cut off by them and being surrounded instead.
Manzhu Xili also knew that Wang Yaowen had bad intentions, so he did not dare to advance rashly.
He first dispersed the army and surrounded the 99th Division. Then keep moving, looking for the 99th Division's defensive weaknesses.
The 99th Division has already established solid defenses on the Great Plains, with four infantry regiments holding on to one side. Artillery, mortars, and rocket launchers are all deployed in the center. Just turn the muzzle to support in all directions.
Facing the Mongolian cavalry that covered the sky with dust and smoke, Wang Yaowen didn't care.
The 99th Division was as steady as a clock, motionless. All the charming eyes full of beading and beading were thrown to the blind man.
"I'm nailed right here. He's so busy practicing etiquette that he doesn't dare to do anything else. He can't go anywhere without deciding the winner with me."
Seeing the Mongolian cavalry becoming more and more anxious, Wang Yaowen felt extremely smooth.
Go around, go around, it depends on how strong your Mongolian cavalry is?
Anyway, the 99th Division stayed safely within the camp without moving an inch, just waiting for the Mongolian cavalry to attack.
"Your Majesty, the enemy is just standing firm and unable to find any loopholes. If it continues like this, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to me."
"Nonsense, this is our Horqin's territory, what's the disadvantage?"
Manzhu Xili was very angry at this judgment.
This area is surrounded by their Horqin's pastures, and their tribesmen also live nearby, and they can receive supplies of food, grass, and weapons at any time.
Manzhu Xili did not think that the National Defense Force would be exhausted.
As for being unable to support Dorgon's battle because of his delay here, he didn't care.
Originally, every time we fought,
The Mongols were just helping the Qing army.
If the Qing army couldn't win, what could the Mongols do?
Now he has contained tens of thousands of defense troops on the left wing and has played his due role.
Dorgon is a world-famous general and the regent of the Qing Dynasty. He should penetrate the middle of the National Defense Force and lead them to a great victory.
Anyway, looking at the tight defense line of the 99th Division, Manzhu Xili would never use the little money he had on hand to attack it.
Wu Keshan took away most of the troops on Horqin's left wing and has not returned yet, fearing that the situation is in danger.
If he were to bury these remaining soldiers and horses, Horqin's left wing would become a big fat piece of meat, and sooner or later it would be eaten up by the wolves on the grassland.
Under the hint of Manzhu Xili, Horqin started paddling on the left wing.
Unable to find a way to attack, they simply retreated and set up camp. They just send rangers to move around the 99th Division from time to time, trying to show off.
Man Zhu Xi etiquette is waiting.
Waiting for news about Dorgon in the middle.
If Dorgon wins, he will fight with all his strength.
If Dorgon loses, he will retreat with all his troops to preserve the vitality of Horqin's left wing.
Holding the information brought back by the scouts in his hands, Wang Yaowen smiled in his heart.
In his eyes, Manzhu Xili opposite him was simply the biggest fool in the world.
Obviously the situation was particularly unfavorable to the Manchus, but he still wanted to preserve his strength. Could it be that if the Manchu Qing Dynasty were destroyed, would he be able to survive alone?
Not to mention.
I'm here waiting for my teammates, what are you waiting for?
"Order the entire army to leave camp early tomorrow morning and line up to fight the enemy to the death."
The order to stick to it was abandoned, and the 99th Division quickly became busy.
The long night passed, and in the morning light from the east, the 99th Division opened the gate of the camp and swarmed out, setting up a posture on the grassland.
The Mongols, who originally thought there would be no war on the left line, couldn't help but rub their eyes when they saw that the 99th Division actually wanted to take the initiative to attack.
Could it be that I saw it wrong?
It's impossible. Even a blind man can clearly see the formation of tens of thousands of people.
The Mongolian scouts rushed back and reported the news to Manzhu Xili.
"The Chinese army on the opposite side actually wants to take the initiative to attack?"
Manzhu Xili was surprised and happy, thinking that Wang Yaowen couldn't hold his temper and finally showed his flaws.
"Tell all the troops to mount their horses. Use our sabers to tell these Han people who is the master of the grassland."
The passionate horns sounded, and the Mongolians on Horqin's left led their beloved horses and strolled in the morning dew.
Fighting the enemy in their hometown, on the land they are most familiar with, always doubles their confidence.
Since the Han people opposite have committed stupidity, they must pay the price for their stupidity.
The Mongolians on Horqin's left wing did not notice that on the ridge of a large mountain in the distance, several National Defense Force officers were observing the battlefield situation with the highest magnification telescope.
At the foot of the mountain behind these officers, nearly 50,000 cavalrymen were already lurking here.
