Forty-eight years of Qianlong

Chapter 552 Night attack, night attack!
By the way, if Zhao Xin was here, the camp would definitely be brightly lit at night, the drones would be used, and the generators would have to be greeted, and you wouldn’t worry about how much diesel you burn. Turn the hill under your feet into a big hedgehog, making it impossible for opponents to bite.

The question is, isn’t Zhao Wangdian not here? The materials carried by the “Southern Detachment” cannot be whatever they want, and they can match everything.The biggest problem with drones is charging, as are thermal imaging infrared night vision devices and eighteen-bead flashlights.The generator is easy to match, but the key is that it is troublesome to carry the fuel.

Take a small diesel generator of a domestic brand in another space-time as an example, with a self-weight of 154 kg, a rated power of 7.5~10kw, and a fuel consumption of 1.1~1.5 liters per hour, at least 26 liters of diesel per day.

Although it doesn’t look like a lot, each barrel of diesel oil is 170 kilograms, and it still takes up volume. If you let a horse carry it, it will be two barrels, so you can only rely on the tracked transport vehicle; the problem is that even if the tracked transport vehicle is carried, it must be guaranteed first I have enough fuel to replenish myself.

But even so, Hu Ji learned the lesson of being attacked by the Qing army in Xiaobai Mountain, and before leaving, he applied to Zhao Xin for two small generators (one spare), two drones, dozens of sets of thermal imaging infrared Night vision devices, and the eighteen-bead flashlight that can shake people to death when turned on, take a picture for miles, and can only be used for a short time.

As I said before, the North Navy currently has a kind of madness of "I am the best in the world" from top to bottom. Whether it is the Qing army or Tsarist Russia, they are all ignored.Soldiers are now circulating a mantra in private, cannons and machine guns teach life.This was what Liu Sheng said first, and then it gradually spread.

Even if Zhao Xin was vigilant and called several meetings with military officers, repeatedly emphasizing the truth that "a proud soldier must be defeated", it is completely impossible to say that there is no mentality of underestimating the enemy in the army!

Well, that's the hangover that comes with using modern weapon systems and tactical systems.

It is not easy to learn at the beginning, because modern weapons and tactics require the individual initiative of the soldiers and a corresponding level of education; but as long as you get started, you will beat all opponents violently!What followed was a general feeling of underestimating the enemy.

For the Eight Banners troops in the era of mixed cold and hot weapons, especially those strong soldiers stationed in the northwest, it is common for them to steal a post at night and steal a battalion, and the opponents who often fight are complaining.For example, in the 20th year of Qianlong, Ayuxi led a night attack with more than 20 people, disrupting the [-] Junggar army. The Qing army took the opportunity to launch a full-scale attack, and Dawaqi was defeated overnight.

So you say that Fu Bao's behavior of bringing twenty people to visit the Beihai Navy's position at night is considered arrogant?This Wuliang Ha Mongolian man just wanted to imitate his predecessors, earn a lot of military exploits, and glorify his ancestors.It's all about courage, it's crazy enough!

Of course, just being crazy is not enough, you also need luck, and it is precisely this luck that Fu Baoque has.

The Beihai Navy on the position began to wake up when they heard the first gunshot, and Fu Bao's fate was already doomed.Dozens of bullets crackled and burst into flames on the gravel around him, and the companions behind him were shot to death one after another. Fu Bao, who was lying on the ground to hide, knew in his heart that he had no way out.

surrender?That is absolutely impossible!The most important thing right now is that someone has to go back and report to Boryeong.

Fu Bao observed a sunken earth pit two steps away to the right by the light that seemed to be daylight. With his heart bent and his waist exerting force, he rolled against the ground, dodging a few bullets, and stabilized himself. fell into the pit.He took a few breaths with his mouth wide open, collected himself, leaned up and shouted loudly in Mongolian to his living companions behind him:
"Let's go! There are only 800 of them!"

The shout attracted the attention of the Beihai Navy more than 200 meters away, and the bullets roared in an instant, causing countless smoke and dust to be stirred up in front of and on both sides of the pit.The pit where Fu Bao is located is about half a meter deep and about one meter long. There were a few stones here before, but when the Beihai Navy cleaned up the shooting area, they pried out the stones and moved them away, leaving behind a pit.

Fu Bao hugged his head against the bottom of the pit and curled up into a ball. After he felt that the incoming blunderbuss had weakened a bit, he slowly got up, knelt down in the pit on one knee, and took out the bow and arrow from the throwing bag behind his back.

Fortunately, the bow was not broken and the arrow was not dropped.

With the mentality of killing one for money and killing two for profit, Fu Bao didn't probe, relying only on the instincts he had gained from fighting on the battlefield for many years, he threw two arrows at the outside with a "boom boom" before he heard it. There was a scream from the opposite side, and a machine gun bullet that flew from nowhere hit his right hand, and the severed finger flew several meters away with a cloud of blood.

After being shot, Fu Bao felt that his right hand lost consciousness in an instant, followed by scorching heat and severe pain. It felt like a piece of red-hot iron was stuffed into the flesh and blood, tearing his nerves and will.He threw away the bow in his left hand, lay down on the ground, tore a piece of cloth from the inner garment under the chain mail, and strangled the severed part of his right hand with his teeth and his left hand.After doing all this, he felt a little exhausted, and gasped heavily.

After more than ten seconds, Fu Bao regained his composure, pulled out the dagger from his waist with his left hand, stood up with all his strength, and rushed forward to the sun-like light without hesitation.

A small-scale sneak attack by the Qing army made the Beihai Navy on the front line like a big enemy. After cleaning the battlefield and counting the corpses, a total of [-] Qing soldiers were killed or injured. .Several wounded soldiers of the Qing army were seriously injured. After all, machine gun bullets are not a joke. Although after some medical treatment, one survived in the end;

According to the clothes and weapons carried by these Qing troops, Michelang concluded that these guys came to feel the sentry, and the purpose was nothing more than to find out the deployment of their own troops.

When it was dawn, Michelang sent a squad from the reconnaissance company down the mountain to have a look, and found [-] horses behind a small hill five miles to the north; match.After that, the squad followed the horseshoe footprints and chased westward to the Tesi River, but at this time there were many Mongolian cavalry on the other side of the river, so they had to return.

Although the Qing army's night reconnaissance operations caused heavy losses to Boryeong's personal troops, the results were huge.When Bao Ning and others learned that the North Navy on the other side had only 800 people, they were immediately overjoyed.

"No wonder it's called a detachment, even a battalion of the Eight Banners is not enough! Such a small number of people want to block my tens of thousands of troops, it's really beyond our control!" Bao Ning couldn't help sneering when he thought of this, and then began to think about how to eliminate them with the least cost. The Northern Navy on the other side.

The Qing court fought against the Beihai Navy many times in these years. The only time that the Beihai Navy suffered a big loss was the night attack on Xiaobai Mountain. After that, those Sauron soldiers who escaped by chance were promoted by Qianlong to the second-class guards of Qianqing Palace. Give Batulu the number of bravery, and reward him with a yellow jacket.

Considering the fierceness of the cannons of the Beihai Navy, Bao Ning thought about it, and repeatedly discussed with the Minister of Counselor Ai Longa and others, and finally proposed to change the tactical strategy of "the army crosses the river in three ways, gather and surround them" to night attack.

Although attacking at night will cause many command and coordination problems such as unusable semaphore and poor transmission of orders, the power of the opponent's firearms will also be greatly weakened. At least the aiming of the cannon is a problem.But what Baoning and the others did not expect was that the North Navy not only had long-range cannons, but also hand grenades for close combat.
The number of Qing troops dispatched was finally set at [-], with two hills and [-] on each side; it was useless to use the "ten rounds" that has been passed down since ancient times to deal with the Northern Navy, and it had to be attacked tenfold.At the same time, Bao Ning would personally lead [-] soldiers into the opposite bank of the Tesi River to lurk. Once the troops in charge of night attacks on both sides succeeded, he would lead his troops across the river and kill the fleeing North Navy.

Marshal Bao's idea was unanimously approved by everyone participating in the military meeting, even Eyidobudorji of the Tushetu Khan Department also agreed; It's impossible to figure out which Zasak's team the opponent is from, so it's just fishing in troubled waters.

After explaining the offensive routes and missions of each department in detail, Baoning finally said: "The time for each department to launch is set at Haizheng tonight. Shenzheng eats, dispatches at the end of the year, and Xuzheng enters the attack position."

Michelang had a bad feeling.He learned from the report of the reconnaissance company that the Qing army on the other side of the river split into two groups, one went north and went to the lower reaches of the Tess River [-] miles away; On the banks of the river inside and out.

He has a set of drones on hand, which has been used by the scout company.The farthest non-interference control distance of this thing is 7 kilometers, and the flight time is 27 minutes; the Qing army's camp is [-] kilometers away from the Beihai Navy's position, stretching for dozens of miles. It is impossible to see clearly, and you can't stand in the opponent's camp Are you doing reconnaissance at the door?Besides, I really treat other people's sentinels as fools!

Mishiran thought to himself, is this a plan to divide the army into three groups to cross the river?Although the Qing army did not fight, after all, the number of people on our side was so small, and the equipment and supplies were limited. If the enemy surrounded them like a tide and attacked desperately, the ammunition on hand was completely insufficient to support such a large-scale defensive battle.Once the position is broken through and plunged into melee combat, let alone the casualty rate, it is certain that the position cannot be kept.

It's not that he hasn't thought about the idea of ​​fighting mobile warfare, but this is a river valley and prairie, and no matter how hard an infantry's feet are, they can't run a war horse.In the face of the charge of large-scale cavalry, it is impossible for me to have a solid position.Besides, this Qing army was obviously going to copy the back route of the troops on the eastern front. If he went into the mountains to go around in circles with the enemy, the Qing army could leave some troops to spend with him, and the brigade continued to walk east along the station line.

He was a veteran in Beihai Town when he started his business. He started as an illiterate farmer who trembled when he heard the sound of cannons. He followed Zhao Xin to the north and south for eight years, and fought countless battles. I went up five times, and every time I went up a level, I was promoted from the deputy company commander to the regiment commander, and my sense of the battlefield was very keen.It is precisely because of his calmness and carefulness that Zhao Xin appointed him as the deputy captain of the "Southern Detachment" to make up for Huji's shortcomings.

At noon, he expressed his thoughts to Huji behind him via the radio.Huji also felt that there was a lot of pressure on Chahantuoluohai, so he thought twice, and finally told Mishilang that he would transfer a reinforcement company from Bayanbulak tomorrow morning.

With four more platoons of soldiers in his hands, Mishilang felt a lot more relieved, but the unreliable feeling never faded away.So in the afternoon, he checked the fortifications of the positions on the two hills in the north and the south one by one in the order of the company and battalion. He held a meeting with the officers and asked to strengthen the vigilance of night guards. To make a bonfire, increase the number of sentries on duty in each shift from two to three, so as to avoid being taken advantage of by the Qing army again.

At dusk, the reconnaissance team sent to the north and south lines to monitor the movement of the Qing army reported that the Qing army on the north line had not moved, while on the south line, a large number of Mongolian militiamen were building wooden frames on the opposite bank, as if they were preparing to build a pontoon bridge.After hearing this, Michelang did not let them come back, but ordered the northern and southern platoons to stay on the other side of the river to monitor the enemy's movements.

The sun finally set and a crescent moon rose.It was cold and windy on the grassland at night, whether it was Tangnu Mountain behind or the Qing army camp in the distance, they were all shrouded in a deep and dark night.

At 7 o'clock in the evening—that is, at the end of the unitary era, the Qing army on the South, North and Middle Third Roads took advantage of the night to dispatch.The Qing army on the northern front was led by Ailonga, the counselor of Uliasutai, and his deputy was Xingfu, the deputy capital of Uliasutai, and Taijimani Bazaerhe of the Zasaktu Khan tribe.The chief and deputy generals leading the troops on the southern front are the deputy capital, Akdong'a, and the second-class Taiji Pengchukdash of Saiyinnuoyan.

In order to avoid the sound caused by the vibration of horseshoes, none of the Qing troops from all walks of life rode horses, and everyone walked with their horses in their mouths, walking silently.

The moon in the sky sometimes shows its head in the clouds, and sometimes hides behind the high mountains.The troops of the Qing army from the north and the south marched in double file, which was more than five miles long from head to tail, like a giant snake meandering on the grassland.In the middle, the Qing army led by Baoning himself also quietly left the camp with a team of 500 people, opened a huge fan on the grassland, and slowly approached the west bank of the Tesi River under the cover of weeds and darkness.

"It's not right!" The platoon leader of the Beihai Navy who was squatting in the grass suddenly shuddered. He picked up the night vision goggles and observed for a while, except for the rustling of the weeds being blown by the wind and the sound of water flowing in front, there was nothing else. .

"Platoon leader, what's the matter?"

"Stubborn donkey, do you feel why the other side is so quiet tonight?"

The scout nicknamed "Stubborn Donkey" also frowned when he heard the words, listened for a while, and said in astonishment: "Why don't the wild wolves bark anymore? The old raven doesn't bark either!"

"The situation is wrong! Let everyone strengthen their vigilance!"

At the same time, on the river bank two miles east of where the scouts were located, a hundred stripped-down Qing soldiers, wearing armor with bows and arrows and short knives on their heads, stepped into the chest-deep river. .Two miles away behind them, there are [-] Mongolian arrows crouching in the grass, ready to go.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and there was still no movement on the river bank. Thirty Bei Haijun squatting in the grass watched all the movements around them nervously.

"It's bad!" The reconnaissance platoon leader cursed secretly, and a red dot suddenly lit up in the upper right corner of the night vision device's field of vision, which was a signal indicating that he was out of power.He hastily turned off the power, opened the cover, and took out the battery from his pocket to replace it.

At this moment, a dense sound of "boom boom" suddenly came from the dark night tens of meters away. The scout called "Stubborn Donkey" knew something was wrong, and yelled "Hidden", and the rifle in his hand Then fire.However, as soon as he spoke, a rain of arrows arrived.Amidst the tinkling sound, the feather arrows hit the helmet and made small dots one after another.

Thanks to the North Navy's lessons learned from the past, the scouts all wore stab-proof suits and neck guards.The problem is that although the arrows shot by the Qing army were not fatal, one person was still injured.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye, so fast that people were caught off guard.The leader of the team, Ye Chu, drew a dagger from his waist, and led a dozen or so men to pounce on the Beihai Navy's left flank.

Intensive gunshots sounded instantly on the river bank, followed by a booming explosion, which was a grenade thrown by the Northern Navy scouts.In the brief flickering of light and shadow, the faces of the Qing army who had entered within 20 meters were all ferocious and ferocious.
