Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 683 Battle Situation Analysis
In the command headquarters of the Far East Uprising Army in the Elbe Province, an emergency military meeting was being held. 26 banner chiefs and chiefs of staff wearing iron sword badges were sitting on their chairs with serious faces.

Their eyes were fixed on the huge sand table placed in the center of the room, and the chief of staff, Mu Xue, was analyzing the battle situation with an iron and wooden baton in his hand.

Now after a series of reorganizations, the Far East Uprising Army has thirteen reorganized flag regiments under its command, and has seized a large amount of weapons and equipment from the Hanhai Army. The fleeing stragglers are gone.

In the Battle of the Elbe River, only two Hanhai brigades were destroyed, and only a few dozen people fled back. The senior officials of the Hanhai army were furious, realizing that the Far East uprising army had grown to the point of being uncontrollable, so they mobilized a full 20 elite soldiers overnight. Come to the Elbe Province to encircle and suppress.

Although the strength of the Far East Uprising Army has been greatly improved compared to before, facing the 80 elite Hanhai Army in the Far East is still like a gap between an infant child and an adult. With the arrival of 20 Hanhai troops, the headquarters of the rebel army had to hold a military meeting to discuss countermeasures.

"According to the latest report, the Hanhai people came to attack us this time with the Hanhai No.13 Army and No.20 Army, with a total strength of 21. Now they have divided into five groups from the southeast, northwest, east, north, and south. Approaching our Elbe Province, the nearest to us now is the 20rd Brigade of the No.[-] Army in the west, and it is only a short three-day journey from our Elbe Province.”

The chief of staff, Mu Xue, held the baton in his hand, pointed to the sand table in the center of the room, and first introduced the latest battle situation to the banner chiefs and chiefs of staff of the rebel army.

The heads of the flag regiments looked at the flag representing the blue enemy army on the sand table, which had rushed towards the province of the Elbe from several directions. Of the banner regiments, only six banner regiments had battle armor weapons, and the rest of the banner regiments even held sharpened wooden sticks as weapons.

Facing the menacing enemy army of more than 20, the current Far East uprising army cannot defeat or repel the enemy army head-on. There are too many enemies, and their strength is still too weak.

The atmosphere in the headquarters was a bit dignified, and everyone was frowning. Now that they had finally defeated the Hanhai army once, they did not expect to attract more Hanhai troops. For them, this was the last result they wanted to see.

But Mu Xue had expected such a result. He knew at the beginning of the battle of the Elbe River that stabbing the hornet's nest would definitely lead to crazy revenge from the people of Hanhai, but he just didn't expect it to come so soon.

Mu Xue also knew that this was a test for the Far East rebel army. They chose to fight against the brutal rule of the Hanhai people with arms, and they would eventually face such a situation one day.

Now he misses the Nanchuan Army a little bit. If the current Far East Uprising Army has the same strength as the Nanchuan Army, the mere 20 enemy troops will not be taken seriously at all.

Generally speaking, the Far East Uprising Army has just started now. Whether they can really gain a foothold in the Far East depends on whether they can withstand the revenge of the huge force of the Hanhai Army this time.

"Everyone, don't be silent. If you have any good strategies to help us fight the enemy, you can talk freely." Mu Xue sat down again, picked up his teacup and took a sip.

After discussing with each other among the chiefs of the banner and the chiefs of staff, one of the banner chiefs stood up and cupped his hands at Mu Xue and the commander, Zhao Yungong: "The 20 people in Hanhai are menacing, we now only have thirteen banner groups, many The flag group is even more dissatisfied, and the weapons are even more rudimentary, so it is impossible to confront them head-on. According to my suggestion, we retreat into the mountains as before, and we will come out after they leave."

As soon as the leader of the banner said the words, he immediately got the support of many leaders of the banner. After all, they used to play this way. When the enemy comes, I hide. If I don't meet you, you can do nothing.

But Mu Xue knew very well in his heart that it is no longer the same now. Back then, the weak and weak could hide as much as they wanted, and the people of Hanhai could not keep exhausting you. At most, let the local garrison continue to encircle and suppress.

The situation is different now. Now the Far East Uprising Army has grown to the point where Hanhai people attach great importance to it. Their strength can annihilate 20 elite Hanhai soldiers. They will definitely not return empty-handed when [-] people come this time. If they really hid in the mountains, they would block the mountains, and so many people in the Far East rebel army would starve to death in the mountains, that would be their own death.

However, Mu Xue will not criticize the head of the banner face to face. After all, the other party is really thinking of a way. He asked: "We now have thirteen banner groups, and there are countless people. Why do hundreds of thousands of people hide in the mountains? ? What if the Hanhai people don’t evacuate us in a short time?”

As soon as Mu Xue's words came out of his mouth, the head of the banner who stood up suddenly realized that his thoughts were a bit out of the ordinary, scratched his head and sat down again.

"Master Chief of Staff, since we can't hide, let's fight head-on. Anyway, we have thirteen flag regiments. If they want to swallow us in one bite, we have to break a few of their teeth." Someone stood up and suggested.

"But there are 20 people in Hanhai, and they are divided into five groups. How should we fight? Which route should we fight first?"

When the question of Muxue was brought up, the heads of these banner leaders suddenly became dizzy. They used to habitually obey the command and fight, but they did not expect that there would be so many tricks involved in the war, and Muxue also deliberately wanted to fight. Cultivate these banner heads to think independently, otherwise they will never be able to stand alone.

"The chief of staff, how do you say to fight?" Seeing that their two consecutive suggestions were rejected, they turned their attention to Mu Xue who was sitting there. After all, Mu Xue is the chief of staff, and his method is sure. many.

Mu Xue led the Far East Uprising Army from weak to strong, they are obvious to all, respecting Mu Xue is like respecting the great commander Zhao Yun.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Mu Xue shook his head with a wry smile. There is still a long way to go to cultivate such generals.

He coughed and stood up, everyone's expressions were serious, ready to listen to Mu Xue's style of play, after all, Mu Xue used to command the battle every time after analysis.

"The No.20 Army and the No.13 Army attacked us this time. First of all, the No.20 Army is not Hanhai people, but composed of surrendered dynasty people. Many of them are soldiers of the Far East Army who were captured at the beginning. As far as I know, their status in the Han Hai Navy is low, and they have to work for the Han Hai people because of their livelihood."

"This time, the No.20 Army is divided into three groups, including two groups of infantry and one group of cavalry. I mean it is enough to send a small number of troops to contain them. They are not difficult to deal with."

"The main target of our battle is the Hanhai No.13 army. They are the field army in the Hanhai army. They are powerful. There are cavalry and infantry all the way. My suggestion is that we concentrate our superior forces and destroy one of them. Eat them all, forcing the other side to retreat."

As soon as Mu Xue finished speaking, the head of the banner asked puzzledly: "Master Chief of Staff, it stands to reason that the No. 20 army is weak, and the No. 13 army of the Hanhai people is strong. Why don't we fight the weaker ones?" Instead, go fight the stronger one?"

"You said you wiped out the strong ones? What would the weak ones think? Conversely, if we fight the weak ones all the way, the strong ones will speed up the march instead, and we will be even more dangerous."

After Mu Xue made such a point, the banner leaders suddenly realized that this is called the deterrent effect. If they wipe out their strongest road, the weaker ones will naturally retreat in fright, because they will think that they are better than me. The strong ones are all destroyed, so I'm going to seek death. If the weak ones are eliminated all the way, there will be no such effect.
