Chapter 15 Offensive route planning

Li Shijing was born during the reign of the first emperor.

His parents were not from aristocratic families, nor were they officials in the court. They were just one of the most ordinary people in Daxia.If there is any difference, it is that my father is a low-level scholar who has participated in the literary examination many times but failed to make the list.

For Li Shijing, his birth brought infinite hope to the family.

His father named him "Li Shijing", which means "peace from generation to generation".The family hopes that he can become a talent for governing the country-even though as a scholar who did not make the list, the life of his father and his mother can only be regarded as barely passable.

And Li Shijing did not live up to the name.

Today, he has been promoted by two captains and has become one of the best "young generals" in Daxia. Of course, his youth is compared to the current officers of the same level in Daxia.

But today, Li Shijing received the order from the Taiwei, and he rushed to Qin Ji's tent almost non-stop, and then informed the guards outside.

The soldiers walked into the tent, and after a while, they came out again:

"General, please."

Li Shijing stepped into the tent.

The tents are basically the same as those of ordinary soldiers.The only difference is that in Qin Ji's tent, there are more simple wooden tables and chairs, some temporary map brackets, and shelves for placing armor.Outside of the first time, there is a bed in the innermost part of the tent, which is separated from the office area by a curtain.

Compared with ordinary soldiers, the biggest difference is that Qin Ji's tent is a single room, with more tools for staff and command, other than that, there is no difference.

"General Li, please sit down."

Qin Ji was in front of that table at this time, and beside him, Satellite was drawing a map with a ruler.

"Thank you, Captain."

Li Shijing was not polite either, he found a chair and sat down.His eyes flicked across the map in the satellite's hand, and his rich command experience allowed him to tell at a glance that it was a topographic map.

However, Li Shijing discovered that the topographic map drawn by the satellite is obviously more complicated, and there are quite a lot of marks on it.

"Oh, General Wei is helping me draw part of the topographic map of Samanjiang." Qin Ji looked at him suspiciously and explained, "General Wei learned a lot about drawing military maps in the Weixi Empire. I am asking him to help me refine our existing maps. In the future, the officers below will also learn this skill."

In the Weixi Empire, this kind of mapping technology has actually been around for a long time, but due to certain requirements for personal knowledge and foundation, even in the Weixi enemy country, only a few officers can master this kind of map drawing.Still an immature technology.

And in the final analysis, this is just a technique for refining the map. The whole map mainly depends on specialized personnel and soldiers to measure and map bit by bit.

However, satellites have combined the mapping experience of those who are engaged in water conservancy facilities in China to form a relatively accurate map surveying and mapping method, which is detailed in many places where traditional maps are lacking, which makes the situation on the battlefield clear at a glance.

"It's really fine..."

Li Shijing looked at it for a while and exclaimed.

With this kind of map, the marching and ambush of troops will be more efficient, and this technology should indeed be promoted as soon as possible.

"I called you here today to discuss the direction of the next battle. At present, after discussing with the generals, I have drawn up four main offensive routes. You can take a look."

Having said that, Qin Ji spread out another ordinary map, on which four main attack directions were drawn with a pencil.

After chatting with Qin Siyue, Qin Ji later removed a main attack direction, because although the terrain in that direction was flat and easy for light cavalry to play, there were stretches of desert everywhere.This kind of place is a nightmare for logistics, and it is not conducive to the march of the Great Xia army.

"They are all relatively feasible offensive plans." Li Shijing looked at the above offensive route, and then said.

"If it was you, General Li, which one would you choose?"

"That depends on whether you want to fight quickly or slowly, Lieutenant."

"Oh?" Qin Ji became interested in his question, "Tell me, what is a quick fight and what is a slow fight? I often hear about quick fights, but slow fights are really rare."

"The so-called quick battle is to quickly force the opponent to surrender and achieve one's own goals. The fast battle is about being fast and unexpected. In a short period of time, it can quickly provide confidence for the country's diplomacy."

"The slow war is a term I often use. The slow war refers to the combat strategy of destroying the enemy's vital forces by consuming the enemy's national strength, dragging down the enemy's order and economy. The emphasis is on flexible attack or contraction. , Annihilating and destroying the enemy army point by point. Most of the battles before the Great Xia were quick battles."

"So, let me ask the lieutenant if you want to fight quickly or slowly. Different combat strategies will naturally lead to different routes."

Li Shijing explained methodically.

"Based on quick battles."

Qin Ji said.

It is true that Samanjiang and Daxia are at odds, but Qin Ji doesn't want to beat Samanjiang too badly, otherwise, sooner or later there will be trouble.

"For a quick battle, I suggest that the Taiwei choose this attack route."

Li Shijing put his finger on an offensive line.

This is the hills of Samanjan. According to Qin Ji's understanding of Samanjan, the hills and forests here make it unnecessary for Samanjan to deploy too many border guards here.Moreover, it is not suitable for troops to move around here, and it seems that there is no room for maneuvering.

"This route is indeed not bad. In fact, only the hills and forests are a great obstacle to the attack, but...if you can successfully break through the hills, you will be followed by a large plain gone."

Qin Ji knew that the Samanjan army did not put too many soldiers here.After all, this hill is really not suitable for a large army to deploy. If something goes wrong, they can still rely on the complexity of the terrain to survive for a period of time. However, given the current stretch of the Samanjan army, they will certainly not be able to fight in such a difficult situation. Put too many soldiers in places that may be attacked.

No way, the army commander in Samanjan did not know the painful lesson of the Arden Forest.Besides, it is still difficult for a group of troops without modern technology to pass through the hills and forests. If one is not paying attention, it is easy to lose their way.

Even if there are "mysterious people" escorting the troops, it still takes a lot of twists and turns to get out of it.

But what they may not know is that the map in Qin Ji's hand has almost shrunk their terrain to a piece of paper the size of a table, relying on the madness of the satellite.

"This road, I think we still need to rely on light cavalry and infantry to attack, and the heavy cavalry will be placed in the plain area after crossing the river, and the other direction will confuse the enemy."

In fact, in the eyes of countries like Samanjan, there is often a very serious misunderstanding:

They often believe that heavily armed heavy cavalry is often the combat force equipped by the main force of an army.

Maybe it's because of the Western church countries that they have come into contact with. They probably think that heavily armed troops are generally the main force.But here in Daxia, it's not necessarily the case.

Therefore, what was hit was a surprise.

Chapter No.16 Trouble from teammates

When Daxia's army was gearing up, Daxi Kingdom did not sit idle.

As the commander of this war, the revision of the Daxia army at this time made Dani feel a little anxious.

Although her Majesty once told her to try her best to leave a good impression on the other party, but after watching Daxia's troops hit the border, they stopped advancing and stopped near the border instead. A troop has entered the enemy's territory, and this young officer...or, from the looks of it, the young officer is already in a hurry.

She is well aware of the combat capabilities of the group of people in Samanjan. These guys are basically in a state of semi-madness. If they don't take advantage of the victory to expand the results of the battle, Samanjan will recover completely in a short time, and then what? ?

She doesn't know whether Da Xia will fight now or not.Although Daxia's attitude has always been relatively friendly, and he has also said that he will help Daxiguo.But to what extent this gang helped, Da Xia didn't say anything.

Moreover, their command system is in charge of their own, and they don't communicate frequently with Daxi Kingdom. Diane doesn't have enough information to guess what their emperor wants to do.What if people want to let Daxi Kingdom, Samanjan, and the church confront each other in the west, and reap the benefits of fishing for themselves?

It's not entirely impossible, and Diane is well aware of what humans can do between these countries.Atlantis had been rich before, but the Hedea Empire, which Atlantis had befriended when it was rich, chose to sit idly by when Atlantis faced the enemy in the north.

Although Daxi Kingdom managed to carry it down with difficulty, the former prosperity is no longer there. This is the lesson from the past, and Diani must consider this issue.

What's more, in Daxia's eyes, a country as large as Daxi Kingdom might be nothing more than a more usable pawn.

She originally wanted to write a letter to urge her a little more tactfully, but after His Majesty the King learned about it, he rejected her idea without any hesitation.

In this case...

Dai Ni looked at a road on the map in her hand.

This road leads directly to a large city on the border of Samanjan, which is the transportation hub connecting the south of Samanjan and the prosperous east. If this city can be captured, the supply of the frontline of Samanjan will be seriously frustrated.

The enemy is also very aware of this. In the early days, Samanjan's troops deployed heavy troops here.And since the Daxia troops severely damaged the offensive troops in Samanjan, there have been many fewer defenders here.

With the strength of the current Atlantis army, it is really difficult to complete the task of fighting against the entire Samanjan alone, but it is not a problem to concentrate on destroying a city.

Thinking of this, she made a suggestion to His Majesty the King.

After discussing at the internal meeting of the Atlantis State, everyone agreed that such a strategy is very feasible. After all, once the city is captured, it can prove to Daxia that the army of the Atlantis State is not just for nothing, but also has enough fighting power; on the other hand On the one hand, it was also to force Daxia to join in the next offensive.

Don't you end up?I directly seized a city first, whether it is in terms of benefits, or from the point of stimulating the enemy to attack the enemy at that time, there is no reason for Daxia not to help.

The abacus worked out well.

And to be honest, strictly speaking, the current military cooperation between Daxia and Daxi Kingdom is actually relatively independent of each other. In other words, the two sides cooperate with each other in a coordinated operation.

Therefore, it will not be implemented.

But, it's not that everyone is so stupid that they don't distinguish anything. Since they are going to make a move, they naturally have to fulfill their responsibilities among allies. Before the Daxi Kingdom's corps attacked, they still decided to inform Daxia.

That's right, it's a notification, not a discussion.

.......................

"It's bullshit!"

Looking at the letter in front of him, Qin Ji was so angry that he almost tore up the letter.But considering that this was a letter sent by the other party's military commander, and the person who sent the letter was right in front of him, he couldn't be completely rude, so he could only endure his impulse.

And the messenger sent by the other party to deliver the letter was also so frightened that he lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word, for fear that the captain in front of him would cut himself off if he disagreed with him.

Qin Ji took a deep breath, and then calmed down his expression:

"I'm sorry, please don't mind, please wait a moment, I hope you can send a letter back to your Miss Diane for me."

After speaking, Qin Ji sat at his desk and started writing quickly.

"I heard that your country's army is about to launch an attack. I admire this kind of activeness and courage to fight. However, our army is still resting, food, grass and military equipment are urgently needed to be replenished, and the transfer of camps is also in progress. If something goes wrong, it may be difficult to provide timely support. Huang Tiecheng said The hub near the border of Samanjan, although the enemy is few, there must be a good army waiting here."

"Besides, if your army encounters the Church's Holy See army, it may be flanked. At that time, I and my troops may not be able to reinforce in time. It is understandable that your army is eager to win, but you must not be too impatient on the battlefield. I hope your army will think twice. "

After writing this, Qin Ji folded the letter, sealed it, and handed it to the courier. The courier who got the letter didn't even dare to stay, and hurriedly bowed and left.

Otherwise, if he didn't resign, he always felt that the other party would really not be able to resist killing him.

After sending off the messenger, the social smile on Qin Ji's face disappeared without a trace.

"These guys... are simply unreasonable."

Seeing the contents of the letter, Satellite couldn't help but said.

To be honest, the most fearful thing in a war is not the teammate who is not strong enough. If he is not strong enough, let him fight a little bit to block and drag people, or simply let him be responsible for defending the areas that have been defeated.

What I am most afraid of is actually the teammate who has average combat ability and likes to operate by himself.

Strategic command on the battlefield is not a joke, every command is a game with the enemy.

But if his teammates run around randomly, even if he is willing to take the initiative to attack certain cities, it will still affect the decision-making of the entire battlefield.

That's why Qin Ji was angry. He knew why the other party was in such a hurry to fight, but even if you were in a hurry, you couldn't decide to start the fight so quickly?

Daxia's troops are not iron men who don't eat, drink, or rest. They have been raiding for so long, and they have to repair weapons and replenish supplies. The logistics supply line also needs to keep up, so that the follow-up attack on Samanjan's local logistics will not be broken. , How could it be possible to chase after the enemy in one breath?
