The front line of the Neba River, the headquarters of the Far East Army.
Candlelight flickered, Imperial Marshal Li Lang and all the generals sat around the crackling and burning brazier.
"Master Marshal, the casualties and captures of the battle during the day have been counted."
The combat staff spread out the notebook in their hands and reported the situation to Li Lang and others.
"The battle lasted from early morning to evening. Our army captured seventy-two camps of the Patriarch Army, defeated the first Patriarch Army, and the main force of the Third Army."
"According to statistics, our army beheaded 43,000 people from the teaching guards and captured 21,000 people. Among them, 31 generals in black and 5 generals in red were killed and captured, and eleven regiment flags were captured. .¡±
Hearing that they killed and captured so many enemies in a single battle during the day, all the generals also had smiles on their faces.
The Far Eastern Army suddenly crossed the Neiba River and launched an attack on the first-line troops of the Skitarii, which greatly exceeded the expectations of the Skitarii.
The Skitarii have been ordered, and they will launch a large-scale attack on the Far East Empire in five days.
They are taking the time to prepare for the attack in a few days, and some people are taking the time to gamble and have fun. After all, once the war starts, no one knows whether they will survive.
However, the Far Eastern Army took the initiative to attack at this time, and the Skitarii was not prepared at all, either defensively or psychologically, so the loss was huge.
If it weren't for the troops behind the Skitarii to stabilize the front line in time, the Far East Army might be able to defeat them in this battle.
Fortunately, Caesar, Marshal of the Skitarii, was not a vegetarian. He sent a large number of troops to block the frontal attack, and the two armies counterattacked from the left and right wings.
The offensive troops of the Far Eastern Army were worried that they would penetrate too deep and be surrounded, so they stopped the attack and turned to defense on the spot.
However, even so, the one-day offensive operation still made the Far Eastern Army gain a lot and dealt heavy losses to the Skitarii.
"Our army seized 35,000 war horses, about 250,000 bags of grain, fodder"
In addition to causing a lot of damage to the cataracts, the Far East Army also seized a large amount of weapons, equipment and food supplies.
In order to attack the Far Eastern Empire, the Skitarii assembled a large number of troops and supplies on the front line.
This time the Far Eastern Army's raid defeated them, and a large amount of supplies stored in the camp also fell into the hands of the Far Eastern Army.
Especially those cavalry units deployed on the front line. Before they could react, the cavalry of the Far Eastern Army rushed to them.
Before they even had time to saddle their horses, they were chopped down in a pool of blood by the cavalry of the Far Eastern Army.
The cavalry unit of the First Army of the Skitarii was annihilated without playing any role, and a large number of horses, fodder, etc. were also cheaper for the Far Eastern Army.
"Our army killed 5,700 people and injured 13,000 people. Among them, Yang Shun, deputy head of the 54th Banner Regiment of the 12th Cavalry Corps, was killed in battle, and two banner battalion commanders of the White Tiger Banner Regiment were killed. A banner battalion commander of the Second Army Corps was killed."
The Far Eastern Army gained a lot, and they also suffered a lot of casualties, among which the highest rank was the death of a deputy banner commander.
The deputy head of the banner named Yang Shun led the cavalry on a rampage all the way, and was tripped by a horse pit, and was picked up by the cataracts.
"In this battle, all regiments and banner regiments fought bravely and executed orders resolutely. I hope to make persistent efforts and make new achievements!"
After Marshal Li Lang listened to the staff's casualty statistics report, he also fully affirmed the daytime battles of the troops.
"The Skitarii is a hard bone. We took advantage of the surprise attack. They will never let it go. The next step is the tough battle. I hope you go back and tell the brothers to prepare for the bloody battle."
Seeing the relaxed generals, Li Lang also reminded them to prevent them from being dazzled by the victory.
"In the next battle, we will rely on the camp and fortress to carry out defensive operations to wear down, exhaust, and consume the enemy."
"In defensive operations, we must actively display our subjective initiative, don't blindly defend tenaciously, and have appropriate counter-attacks!"
"At the same time, we must give full play to our equipment advantages. We have a large number of trebuchets and arrows, which can effectively kill the enemy."
"All ministries must strengthen the construction of fortifications, and at the same time strengthen coordinated operations, and cannot fight alone."
Marshal Li Lang made some arrangements for the next battle and put forward specific requirements.
"Brother Yuan, the main force of our infantry will consume and?Attract them, but whether you can defeat them depends on your Twelfth Legion. "
After Li Lang completed the frontal battle deployment, he then turned his attention to Yuan Jie, the commander of the 12th Army who was sitting there.
Yuan Jie was one of the commanders-in-chief of the three main forces of the Qinghe Army at the beginning. Later, because of lax control, corruption continued in his troops, and he was ignored by the emperor Chen Ziang.
Afterwards, Yuan Jie was reactivated and replaced Fatty Lu as the commander of the 12th Cavalry Army. Because of his meritorious service in combat, he was promoted to the deputy commander of the First Army.
This time he led the Twelfth Cavalry Corps to break away from the First Army and put it under the command of Li Lang in the Northeast Theater.
During the day, the Twelfth Army of the Combat Cavalry played a key role. They rushed through the camps of the Skitarii with lightning speed, causing great panic and confusion to the Skitarii.
The passage was opened for the main force of the infantry to attack, which allowed them to defeat the skitarii of the two armies.
"Don't worry, Marshal, the Twelfth Army Corps will resolutely carry out the order and display the country's prestige and military prestige!"
Yuan Jie, the former commander-in-chief of the main force, is now a few levels lower than Li Lang, and even one level lower than a rising star like Li Changqing. He is also depressed, so he wants to make more military exploits and catch up again. .
"The task of your twelfth cavalry regiment is to go around behind them, aim at their seventh, eighth, and ninth armies, and look for opportunities to divide and annihilate them."
"At the same time, cut off their logistics and supply transportation lines, and let their hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line of the Neba River run out of food."
"As long as they run out of food, they will have to retreat. As long as they move, the tatters will be exposed. Then we can look for opportunities to annihilate them!" Li Lang pointed to the map.
Now the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Skitarii are gathered together in a battalion, ready to support each other at any time, so that the Far Eastern Army can't even eat it.
?Because if you take a bite, you may not eat the meat, but you will take a bite instead.
If it weren't for the sudden attack this time, it would not be easy for them to wipe out tens of thousands of skitaris abruptly.
The Twelfth Cavalry Corps has a high degree of maneuverability. As long as they penetrate the enemy's rear, they are a great threat to the enemy's rear, and they can also cut off their logistical supply lines.
As long as the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Skitarii have nothing to eat and drink, no matter how brave they are, they won't be able to last long.
This is the ultimate strategy for defeating the enemy discussed by Chief of Staff Li Qiye and Marshal Li Lang. It is not to destroy the enemy by fighting hard, but to defeat the enemy from a strategic height! (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
