Chapter 475 Weekly offensive, magnet tactics!Who taught this? (ask for subscription, ask for monthly pass)

"It's not that easy?"

Zhuge Weidao looked at Mu Zhongjun suspiciously. This Mu Zhongjun looks a bit timid!It seems that it was a mistake to let him be the admiral of the Southern Continent Army Corps!
Mu Zhongjun's appointment as Admiral of the Southern Continental Army is related to Zhuge Weidao, because Mu Zhongjun and Zheng Guoxian are both "rear party members", and Zhuge Weidao is also very close to Queen Mother Zheng.Therefore, when selecting the admiral of the Nanda Army, Zhuge Weidao recommended Mu Zhongjun to the Army Division.Since the members of Zhuge's family have been deeply involved in the navy these years, there are no suitable candidates in the army.Therefore, the military advisers in the military division also nodded. After all, Mu Zhongjun is also the leader of the Eight Great Aristocratic Families, the current His Royal Highness King Qian!

The Zheng family also supported Mu Zhongjun under the operation of Zheng Yuhuan and Zheng Guoxian.

Coupled with the Mu family's own support, three of the eight great families supported Mu Zhongjun in commanding the Southern Continent.

And the remaining five aristocratic families couldn't recommend a more powerful candidate, so the matter was settled like this.

Unexpectedly, this Mu Zhongjun looked brave, but he was a coward when he actually went to the battlefield!
Mu Zhongjun's reaction to Zhuge Weidao is not surprising at all. Because Zhuge Weidao, the "Zhuge military adviser", has been relatively "reckless" in recent years, so he got the nickname of "Bravely crowned three armies and fierce Zhuge".

Among those with the surname Zhuge, except for the Zhuge Wuzhong King who has gone out from generals to ministers and conquered east and west for fifty years, Zhuge is the most brave for Taoism.

If this Zhuge came to the time of the Three Kingdoms, he must be a fierce general who "fights Cao Cao with a white horse and a silver gun, and fights Zhou Lang with Linjiang water"!

Thinking of this, Mu Zhongjun stood up with a smile, walked to a map hanging on a bulkhead, then pointed to the map and said to Zhuge Weidao: "Daozi, look here. This is Tabletop Mountain. It is part of the Great Dividing Range. After passing this mountain range, the terrain gradually lowered and became relatively flat. Now Hugh Gough's army is marching along the western foot of the Great Dividing Range, and it is estimated that it will reach Mount Tabletop in 7 days At your feet, I will use these 7 days to build a 'Great Wall' along Table Top Mountain to stop Hugh Goff's cavalry."

"Repair the Great Wall?"

Zhuge Weidao was a little dumbfounded.

Using the "Great Wall" to deal with "Mongolian cavalry" is an old method handed down by the Ming Dynasty. But now the Ming Dynasty has armored vehicles and bombers!
Mu Zhongjun went on to say: "Daozi, your fleet moved south in 6 days, near Sydney Cove, and then began to bomb Jackson Naval Harbor and downtown Sydney. At the same time, you sent minesweepers to the beaches on the north and south sides of Sydney Cove. , Pretend to clear mines."

"Is this a trick to confuse Hugh Goff?"

Zhuge said for Dao Xin: "You Mu Zhongjun, you are flying a dragon and riding on your face, and you still have to use tricks. You are too cunning!"

Mu Zhongjun nodded and said: "You never tire of deceit. Although I have the advantage, I still have to use the strategy that should be used. If Hugh Gough finds that our fleet has gone to Sydney Cove, and we are here in Brisbane The siege has been unsuccessful for many days. You must think that we have transferred the main force to launch a surprise attack near Sydney Cove, and the attack on Brisbane is a feint.

This would make it possible for him to storm our 'Great Wall' defenses on Tabletop Hill. We could use this opportunity to drain his morale, supplies and lives.Hugh Goff came from a long distance this time, so it is unlikely that he brought too many supplies and ammunition.It is estimated that his attack will be exhausted after 5-7 days, and it will not exceed 8 days at most.I have led the cavalry, and I know the logistics of the cavalry best.Even with one man and two horses, accompanied by a large number of carriages, and pasture to feed the horses along the way, the troops can maintain an offensive for 5-7 days.

Therefore, I will dispatch tank troops to quickly intersperse behind the British on the sixth or seventh day depending on the situation, and cooperate with the frontal infantry to outflank the British army, forcing them to break through and retreat. The army chased and fought all the way. At the same time, they dispatched planes to bomb the British army's logistics line and the retreating single British army, preventing Hugh Gough's army from getting supplies and respite! "

Now Zhuge Weidao was stunned, isn't this "worship offensive and magnet tactics"?How did Mu Zhongjun do it?Is he too
"My lord," Zhuge Weidao finally provoked a thumbs-up, "You are so clever, this time Hugh Goff will probably die without a place to bury him!"

But Mu Zhongjun waved his hand and said: "Daozi, you tell me these words. I learned this set of magnetic tactics designed to break the enemy's short offensive from your ancestor!"

correct!

Zhuge Weidao finally remembered that Mu Zhongjun's style of attack was the one used by King Zhuge Wuzhong. After King Zhuge Wuzhong completed the southern governance and land reform, the Ming army's logistics has always been very secure, and its firepower is also relatively strong. At an advantage, but still less maneuverable.Therefore, his usual tactics are "to lure the enemy to attack, to show weakness in defense, to counterattack with exhaustion, and to stick to the enemy with magnets".

Don't look at such a simple set of tactics, but it has been tried and tested, and it is rarely missed because King Zhuge Wuzhong has never met an opponent who can fight him for firepower and supplies after he has rectified the affluent land in the south.Even if the heavy cavalry assaults, King Wuzhong's Xinming army will not lose the wind in the slightest.

The only shortcoming is that the mobility of the troops is slightly worse.

Since this set of tactics is so easy to use, it has naturally been passed down from generation to generation by the education system of the Ming Army.

As for Mu Zhongjun, who has been in the army for 20 years and has been promoted to the rank of general, but with almost zero actual combat experience, the admiral of the army can only fight according to the textbook.

However, this old ancestral method seems to be suitable for dealing with Hugh Goff.

Now Hugh Goff's firepower, supplies, and assault capabilities are all far behind the opponent.And the only thing that can be used is the mobility of the cavalry... In fact, his mobility is no match for the armored vehicles of the Ming army, but not everyone of the Ming army who landed in Australia now has a car to sit in.

If everyone is a wheeled armored vehicle, wouldn't it be a mechanized army?The current Ming army is not that rich. After all, the automobile has not been invented for many years.

Therefore, there are only a small number of troops equipped with wheeled armored vehicles, and large troops cannot catch up with Hugh Gough's cavalry on the grassland.

However, Hugh Goff could not win by running alone.

He still has to look for opportunities in sports.

And this opportunity... within a few days after Hugh Goff left Sydney, it seemed to have gradually emerged, and it was getting bigger and bigger.

Because, the Brisbane Fortress, which is not well-guarded, was temporarily held under the "onset" of the Ming army's landing force!
The reason why the fortress can be defended, according to the report sent by the defenders of the fortress using the long-wave radio station, is obviously that the heavy artillery of the landing Ming army is insufficient, and the strength of the troops seems to be limited.

Although these Ming troops performed very well in the landing battle and the subsequent fierce pursuit battle.But after entering the siege stage, their stamina is not enough.

Although the Brisbane Fortress is old, the site selection of this fortress is very particular. It is more than 20 kilometers away from the coastline, which can avoid attacks from the sea.

If the Ming army hadn't pulled a large number of heavy artillery ashore, then they could really have smashed the cannons on the city wall of the Brisbane Fortress... Without the cannons, it would be very difficult to fight fortresses and field battles on land.
