Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2467: Jiujo Gongbei replays!

Although Kujo Miyakita was eager to find Danwu and show off his strength, he was very interested in the defeat of General Takeda.

So he made a sand table with Takeda.

This sand table is very simple to make, because Inner Mongolia is mostly grassland area with flat terrain. Even if there are a few mountains, they are not very high.

So the two of them completed the sand table in less than an hour.

Takeda used a small flag to stick on the east side of the sand table and said, "This is Tongliao. I entered the grassland under the guidance of the reconnaissance plane. Everything went smoothly at first, but everything changed the night I entered the grassland."

At this point, General Takeda sighed, and after calming down for a long time, he continued: "That night, everything changed. The Wugan tribe that I had targeted mysteriously disappeared, and that night, I encountered serious harassment.

The enemy first attacked the tank squadron and the camp with mortars, causing at least five tanks to be completely scrapped.

I discovered this loophole and immediately ordered the cavalry to expand their patrol range.

But my enemies targeted my patrolling cavalry. They attacked the patrol team in a very short time, and the imperial army in the camp had no time to rescue them.

I thought for a moment and decided to send the puppet army to build four fortifications outside the camp. This would not only prevent enemy artillery attacks, but also support the cavalry outside.

However, I was wrong again. The cavalry of the Wugan tribe was divided into four columns, and they flattened my four outer guard camps like armored chariots. "Alas!"

At this point, Takeda sighed.

Jiujo Miyakita thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Takeda, our enemy is indeed a cunning guy. Of course, this is also due to your lack of preparation."

Takeda was not angry, because if someone else said such words, he would definitely slap the other person in the face. He was General Takeda and had fought wars for half his life, but you said that he was not well prepared before the battle?

But Kujo Miyakita is different. He is a noble, and a great noble.

What's more, General Takeda still needs help from the other party.

So he patiently asked, "What do you think, nephew?"

Jiujo Miyakita said slowly: "Uncle Takeda, since you knew that the grassland was flat and there were few mountains when you entered it, you should have prepared a lot of sacks in advance, and when you camped at night, you could use the sacks to fill with soil to build a lot of fortifications.

If we carry some more wood to the grassland and make some chevaux de frise, the enemy's cavalry will be useless."

"・・・"

Takeda was speechless. Let's not talk about how big the entire camp was. Is it feasible to use sacks to carry soil? How many trucks would be needed to transport wood? Are all the trucks in the empire Chinese cabbages?
And even if they are all cabbages, how many troops do you need to protect these transport vehicles?
Moreover, such a large number of baggage vehicles will greatly slow down the marching speed of the troops. If the enemy adopts guerrilla tactics, they can also drag you to death on the grassland.

Of course, Takeda could not say so on the surface, but said: "My dear nephew, what you said is very true, but when I left Tongliao, the number of trucks was too small, and the vehicles were already full with some supplies, and there was nothing I could do.

Moreover, at that time, no one expected the enemy to be so courageous. Not only were they not afraid of the Imperial Japanese Army, but they also launched a night attack.

Also, the intelligence insider was very incompetent and could not even stop the migration of the Wugan tribe. If the migration of the Wugan tribe was just a little slower, I would have surrounded the Wugan tribe and forced them to fight me. "

At this point, Takeda still felt a little regretful, but at this time, Kujo Miyakita had already understood the general situation. He was no longer a war rookie, although he was still very naive at times. This might be related to his identity. He could do anything to win a war. So he didn't care whether there were so many trucks transporting wood, or anything else.

But it is undeniable that he is much more mature than before and has also seen some problems.

He looked at the sand table and said, "Uncle Takeda, have you ever thought that when you entered the grassland this time, you did not look for a place to station troops in advance?"

Takeda said: "I have thought about it, but I calculated the time. I originally planned to capture the Wugan tribe in two days, and then fight a decisive battle with the Wugan cavalry to end the war. But you have seen the result."

Jiujo Gongbei said: "That's not what I meant."

Takeda nodded and said, "I know what you mean. You mean to build the base on the mountain to prevent the enemy's night attack. But we have to walk one to two more days. This is not conducive to fighting on the grassland.

Because we don't have enough troops to encircle the enemy. Moreover, the enemy is a nomadic people, and their cavalry is very fast.

They can suddenly appear in front of us and attack us, or they can suddenly move away from us, making it impossible for us to find them. Facing such enemies on the grassland is very difficult. "

Kujo Miyakita also fell into deep thought because the terrain on the grassland made it difficult for other types of troops to play their roles except for cavalry.

The horses ran so fast that even the mechanized corps could not catch up. Moreover, when there was a thunderstorm and the grassland was muddy, the mechanized infantry corps' marching speed was even slower.

That is to say, on the grassland, only cavalry can defeat cavalry.

Thinking of this, Kujo Miyakita said, "I will think of a way to get more cavalry. This way we can catch up with our enemies and we won't have to worry about them running away."

At this point, Kujo Miyamoto paused, then asked, "Is Ye Xiuwen still on the grassland?"

Takeda thought for a moment and said, "He should not be on the grassland. Because when I first entered the grassland, a cavalry squadron on reconnaissance encountered a very strong opponent and was completely wiped out.

The other party was using a Mauser pistol, so I guessed that this person might be Ye Xuwen.

And the following battle was enough to prove this point, that person was Ye Xuwen.

Because if it wasn't him, I can't think of anyone else who could have come up with such a cunning tactic in such a short time."

Jiujiao Gongbei nodded and said, "You mean, as long as we attack the Wugan tribe, Ye Xuwen will appear? That would be a bit simple."

Takeda asked in return: "My dear nephew, what do you think?"

Kujo Miyakita said with a smile: "I will ask for the cavalry. Next time, we will use the cavalry to defeat the cavalry and let those nomadic peoples on the grassland see how powerful the Imperial Japanese Army is. Hahaha!"

"Hahaha!"

Takeda laughed along.

Although in his heart, Jiujiao Gongbei is a trouble, but it is undeniable that Jiujiao Gongbei's resources are what he dreams of! .
