Chapter 878 Sports Battle
Nie Ping's plan was a bit risky, but if successful, the payoff would be considerable.
They have the opportunity to use this battle to severely weaken the strength of the Oirat Alliance and leave an indelible impression on them.
With less than 30,000 troops, he took the initiative to attack 150,000 cavalry and defeated them.
This kind of battle is enough for them and their descendants to remember, and then they have a deep fear of Dahua, and honestly obey Dahua's management.
As long as the plan is successful, they have completed the Mongol campaign.
And if you don't implement this plan and choose to retreat, of course, it can also drag down the Oirat Alliance.
However, those people may feel that they are defeated by lack of food and forage, not by defeat on the battlefield.
Once they have food and grass in the future, they may feel that the weather has stopped and the rain has stopped.
Moreover, if the Oirat Alliance is disbanded due to food and grass, the Chinese army will have to defeat them one by one.
Once those people chose to run away, the Chinese army was fortunate in chasing after them.
Zhang Shuhuan thought of this, so he was inclined to support Nie Ping's plan.
Moreover, Nie Ping has always been known as a genius, and Zhang Shuhuan also has confidence in him.
"I think it's ok. When it comes to fighting, how can you not take a little risk. Back then, His Majesty personally led a few hundred people to attack an enemy with thousands of people at night. We can't lose this spirit because we have advanced weapons."
Zhang Shuhuan said that he was politically correct, and he also showed off his qualifications by the way.
His remarks are irrefutable, and when he refutes it, it is a bit like denying the emperor.
Besides, everyone didn't really have any opinion on Nie Ping's plan.
Therefore, everyone quickly agreed to the plan.
The direction is determined, and the next step is the specific layout.
Calculate the speed and route of each enemy army. Determine the attack time and location. Predict combat time, make plans to deal with emergencies, and contact tribes who are unwilling to fight against Dahua......
A battle involving hundreds of thousands of people has a lot of details.
The entire staff of the Hua Army, plus other related personnel, a total of 600 to 700 people worked together, and it took a whole day to formulate a battle plan.
Then, Hua Jun began to act.
The army headed northwest, attacking the Dzungar army first, and then the Heshuote army.
Hit the periphery first, and in the event of an accident, it is easy to get out.
If you don't take the Heshuote team first, you may be surrounded and besieged from all sides.
150,000 troops, if they were to get together, would not take up much space.
But it was impossible for the march to do so, and the 150,000 people were still scattered.
Among them, the Junggar Division and the Heshuote Division were separated by several kilometers. The distance from the easternmost troops was more than ten kilometers in a straight line and twenty or thirty kilometers in a diagonal line.
This is still on a flat grassland. If it is in an area with complex terrain, 150,000 troops will advance and the front will be longer.
With such a long distance, Hua Jun has room to operate.
When Gushi Khan's sentinels discovered the movements of the Hua army, there were not many secrets left between the two sides.
Although Gushi Khan did not understand why Hua Jun took the initiative to attack, he also knew that Hua Jun was indeed coming to attack his side.
This has a lot to do with his plan, he hasn't set up the encirclement yet.
If the Chinese army cannot be attacked from all directions at the same time, it will not be able to play the role of dispersing the Chinese army.
Then, the battle will be extremely difficult.
"Damn it, some coward must have sent the letter. Don't let me know who it is, or I'll never spare him."
Gushi Khan cursed loudly.
Unfortunately, scolding won't solve the problem.
Then, he issued the latest order.
He ordered the Dzungar troops to defend and restrain them on the spot, and he would lead troops to attack from the flanks of the Chinese army.
At the same time, he also ordered other tribes to attack the rear of the Chinese army, and also ordered some tribes to circle to the west of the Chinese army to encircle.
Why go around it, because the space is limited.
Gushi Khan's Heshuo Special Division occupied the attacking position of the Hua Jun's right flank, and other troops had no place in this direction.
If you insist on inserting it, it might even mess up the Heshuo Special Department.
Furthermore, even if they were inserted, they would only increase the density of the soldiers and would not have the effect of dividing the Chinese army.
The increased density has some effect on the cold weapon army. To deal with the machine guns of the Chinese army, it is only to increase the casualties of one's own side.
Gushi Khan's adjustment is quite satisfactory. As for the effect, this will only be known after playing.
The cavalry and the heavy armored divisions of the Hua Army are both fast mobile units. When the sentries of the two pairs find each other, the main force will come into contact sooner.
Saiyide, the leader of the Dzungar clan, was heartbroken at this time. He never imagined that the Huajun would take the initiative to attack.
This means that the plan of siege failed. If you want to defeat the Huajun, you have to pay a very heavy price, maybe a generation will die.
Even worse, the first target Hua Jun looked for was himself.
Saiyide could only order his subordinates to rush over, because he had also read the battle report between the Huajun and the Tueryi Special Branch, and knew that the escape would be even worse, and the Huajun would chase the horse to death.
Rush over, hold on, and wait for friendly troops to arrive.
The Heshuote Department next to it is only a few kilometers away from here. For the cavalry
, it's only a matter of ten minutes.
Even if you add the rest time of the horses, the preparation time will not exceed half an hour.
At that time, they will be able to attack the Chinese army.
Said's calculation was not too wrong, but Hua Jun also calculated this time.
All they have to do is to defeat Said within this time.
Therefore, the Huajun had no reservations, and directly let the artillery fire rapidly, regardless of the service life of the gun barrel, and fired the most shells at the fastest speed.
Cannonballs rained down into Said's army, followed by the sound of their own explosions and the neighing of horses.
As for the screams of people, they were drowned out by these two voices and could not be heard at all.
A large number of horses and soldiers fell on the way to charge, but the cavalry at the back was still rushing forward desperately, making it impossible for those in front to stop.
Afterwards, they entered the range of the Huajun machine gun. At this distance, they only needed dozens of seconds to rush to the Huajun.
However, the gun went off.
That kind of da da da sound is like a life-threatening song.
As soon as the song rang, there were countless casualties.
More people and horses fell on the way to charge, just like the battle some time ago.
It's not that these cavalry are stupid and don't know how to change tactics. They really have no other better way.
The only difference from the last time was that this time, the people from the Zhungar Department did not turn to escape, but continued to rush towards the Huajun.
They all knew that their tens of thousands of reinforcements would arrive soon.
As long as they rush to the front of Hua Jun, the situation will be reversed immediately.
At that time, it was their massacre of the Chinese army.
