Chapter 672

Although it was late at night, the tents of the Chinese Army in Wuhuli were still brightly lit. Many people are sleepless all night.

Shen Hao stood outside the tent, enjoying the cool breeze, looking up at the stars all over the sky, feeling a little restless. According to the deployment of the previous military strategy meeting, the early morning of yesterday was the starting point of Jianchuan's serial offensive, and if everything goes well, we will get definite news tonight or tomorrow morning.

The waiting time was the most difficult, even if Shen Hao didn't have any feelings for Jing Jiuchao's family and country, it didn't prevent him from hoping that Jingjiu Dynasty would win. Because he is relying on the Jingjiu Dynasty for food now, why not flatter the stinky feet of the barbarians if he doesn't face the Guochao?

Jianchuan is now a prominent part of the entire front, if it can tear open the mouth, it will definitely determine the outcome of the entire war process.

With Shen Hao's current experience in military affairs, he can also see that once Jianchuan breaks through, he will be able to double-team Baitou Gorge when he turns back. Or continue to move forward, Bingfeng threatens the hinterland of the barbarian territory.

If it fails. The current situation in Jianchuan will return to the previous situation, and the war of attrition in the Flesh and Flesh Mill will continue. This is definitely not good news for Jing Jiuchao.

Don't look at the high-pitched voices of the whole country, passionate young people are flocking to the south to join the army and kill barbarians.

But the war consumes all young and middle-aged people. Once too many people die in a short period of time, this kind of thing is definitely a big black pot. No one mentions it now, but what about after the war?

When doing liquidation, a label of "disregarding the lives of soldiers" will definitely be buckled up. If you are lucky, someone will protect you. What I am most afraid of is that "the work is not worth it". I will give you a candy first, then turn around and give you a hard slap, maybe your head will be slapped off.

Shen Hao believed that Zuo Yuliang launched this new offensive immediately after Jianchuan had just opened up some situations out of this consideration. Although there is no absolute certainty of success, if it succeeds, how many lives can it save?

In the early morning of February 25th, at the time of Chouzheng, a piece of internal news from the inspector reached Li Jiang through the Thousand Miles Note, and Li Jiang immediately reported it to Shen Hao.

If there is one, there will be two, and after one after another, there will be new news coming back from the front lines of the "Shimen", "Menqian", "Central" and "Lower" military villages.

Li Jiang and Zhang Ye, who came to inquire, quickly sorted out several pieces of news and unfolded them in front of Shen Hao.

"The whole army in the Qianmen Army Village attacked at night, and then Zeng Zhou's troops set up an ambush on the way and intercepted and killed more than 10,000 enemy troops who had been reinforced from the central part of Jianchuan.

Then Li Zhongzheng, who came from Shenwanlinhui, the central military village, and sent additional troops, launched a fierce attack on the barbarians in central Jianchuan at dawn with superior forces.

Zeng Zhou's troops rushed again to intercept and kill the barbarian reinforcements from the lower part of Jianchuan.

In the end, the entire army in the Shimen Military Village put pressure on the upper part of Jianchuan together with Cheng Jinhou from the Menqian Military Village. In the lower part, a fierce attack was also launched to contain it.

After that, break through the enemy camp in the middle first, and then break through the enemy camp in the upper part.

An estimated 40,000 enemies were wiped out in the central area, and the remaining few thousand fled. The upper part wiped out more than 20,000 enemies, and the rest retreated to the hinterland behind the barbarians. In addition, nearly 30,000 enemy troops were intercepted and killed halfway. Now the enemy in the lower part has also begun to withdraw from the army camp and move closer to Baektou Gorge.

As above, from the twenty-three nights to now, the battles in Jianchuan have ended one after another.

grown ups! Victory on the front line! "

Although there is no specific number of battle casualties, it is definitely much less than the barbarians. With such a wild victory, the bad news in the battle report will naturally be "reported later".

"Okay! Immediately report the good news to Mr. Jiang. He should be anxious if he thinks about it."

"yes!"

Li Jiang and Zhang Ye were also very excited, and they were discussing how the battle would unfold in the future while reporting to the higher authorities.

"Victorious now! Naturally, we will pursue the victory, kill him a hundred miles first, and then move south, breaking through the Baitou Gorge all the way, and then we will be able to point directly at Sangbiqiu!"

"I think we can fight steadily. The distance from Jianchuan to Baitou Gorge is not short. Although this is a fierce victory, the number of casualties will definitely not be small. If you go south rashly, you will be self-defeating and suffer a big loss."

"Disadvantaged? Now that the pincers are in full swing, how can the barbarians have the power to resist?"

Zhang Ye is more confident, and believes that he can quickly expand the results of the victory by pursuing the victory, and can directly join the pincer attack from the direction of Baitou Gorge, and open up the main road to Sangbiqiu one after another.

Li Jiang appeared to be more mature. He felt that although he won violently, he should calmly consume the results of the battle, instead of sending troops south, worrying that he would be intercepted and killed by the barbarians in Baitouxia.

"Baitou Gorge is no better than Jianchuan. The terrain over there is open and flat, with few rocks and low-lying areas. It is very suitable for cavalry operations. Do you think the infantry in Jianchuan rushed to the open area of ​​​​Baitou Gorge on two legs and then encountered large-scale soldiers? What will happen to the wolf cavalry?"

"this"

Zhang Ye couldn't answer. Because although infantry also has ways to deal with cavalry, it is recognized that infantry will suffer a lot if they encounter a large number of cavalry in the wilderness. Escaping, unable to escape; chasing, unable to catch up, life and death will be grinded to death.

Shen Hao didn't care about Zhang Ye's ugly face, he also agreed with Li Jiang's judgment. Li Jiang is obviously better at military affairs than Zhang Ye.

"Then there will be a quiet period after Jianchuan?"

"My lord, this subordinate thinks so. Because if Jianchuan moves forward again, the battle line will be lengthened again, and the advantages of the Shimen Military Village and the Wanli Bamboo Sea Secret Road will be diluted again. This will face the danger of a single army going deep. Therefore, Jianchuan In a short period of time, Chuan should overcome the existing achievements rather than continue to advance or go south to help the war."

Zhang Ye shut his mouth, he also wanted to show his face in front of Mr. Shen, but he was indeed inferior to Li Jiang in terms of military affairs, he said something wrong just now, now he can only stare but dare not intervene anymore.

Shen Hao also looked at the topographic map hanging on the board. Indeed, after Jianchuan took off the two nails in the middle, he was completely on his feet. And in terms of position, it has actually formed a two-sided attack on Baitou Gorge.

"Is this already an advantage?"

"Yes, my lord. Now Shuai Zuo has completely opened up the situation."

He waved his hand and asked Li Jiang and Zhang Ye to go to work. The inspectors of each army will definitely send back relevant detailed information later. These need to be sorted out carefully, and the two of them will not be free these days.

Shen Hao didn't go to sleep either, but stood in front of the topographic map and lost his mind. He was very curious, the current situation is unfavorable for the barbarians, will the internal stalemate about the establishment of the royal court be intensified?

On the contrary, according to the news from Heishui all the time, the interior of the Jingjiu Dynasty is also not at peace, and even several princes have thrown off their arms and are about to shake their fists at each other. This Jianchuan victory may give the government and the public a reassurance that they will not be panicked by the intensified royal "big test".
