Chapter 145: Wisdom and bravery

Is Ling Yunxiao a "strong general" who is brave but not smart? At least for most of the time, the first impression he gave is that he was too brave and lacked in intelligence. Even if he occasionally had such an wise and courageous performance, it made people feel that it was a flash of inspiration and could not be copied. For example, in the Peninsula War, Ling Yunxiao, who was a young sword army that was younger than him, took the lead and fought several beautiful battles, especially when he rushed to Qingzhou, which made people feel that he was a rare young general, a rising star. As a result, his serious mistakes in the placement of prisoners of war almost ruined his bright future.

Throughout his life, Ling Yunxiao was a controversial soldier.

Like Xiang Yinghui's steady and generous attitude, Pei Chengyi's resourcefulness, and Yuan Chenhao's inspiration. Ling Yunxiao used his courage and fearlessness to interpret another kind of military temperament and wrote a glorious history of the Republic's soldiers.

The Peninsula War made Ling Yunxiao famous in one battle, and the Indian War pushed him to the top.

When Luo was young, for most office workers, it was just a time from the time they woke up this time to the next time.

Short, not much novelty.

When Ling Yunxiao and the Thunder Knife were thugs when they were under the assault mission.

After arriving at the Dizhou Armored Assault Brigade, the first thing Ling Yunxiao did was to hold a vow

There is no need to let all officers and soldiers gather in a large enough square. Using individual soldiers and on-board communication equipment, officers and soldiers can meet the commander on their respective positions through screens and headphones and hear the exciting battle declaration.

In terms of the ability to boost morale, no one in the entire army can do better than Ling Yunxiao.

Among so many commanders of the Republic Army, only Ling Yunxiao can pat his chest and guarantee that as long as he gives orders, from the brigade commander to the private, the soldiers of the entire army will rush to the most tragic battlefield without hesitation even when facing death. This is not prestige, but the role of example, because every time he faces a strong enemy, Ling Yunxiao will definitely rush to the front and face the threat of death with the soldiers.

It makes sense for Pei Chengyi to say that Ling Yunxiao is "good and blessed". The sword army experienced dozens of battles of all sizes, with more than 10,000 casualties and soldiers. Ling Yunxiao not only did not get a gun, but even had a hair. You should know that after entering the Indian battle, the guards who protected his personal safety sacrificed their men, making the military guard battalion the most casualty rate in the entire army.

The commander took the lead in his death, so how could the soldiers refuse to obey?

Before the oath-taking meeting ended, Ling Yunxiao arranged a special task for officers at all levels, which was to urge each soldier to leave suicide notes and send them to the military department for management. Like charging forward, Ling Yunxiao took the lead in handing over the suicide notes and set an example for the officers and soldiers of the brigade. Although Ling Yunxiao did not explain, the officers and soldiers all knew that this was called "the determination to make up for death" or "to put it to death and live."

How can one live without forgetting death?

Within 2 hours, the military headquarters received seven suicide notes from nephews, four of which were guarded from the Armored Assault Brigade. "The war unit was strengthened to strengthen the combat troops to the 7th Armored Assault Brigade. Because time was tight, the suicide notes of all the officers and soldiers of the brigade were electronic documents. Besides, few officers and soldiers would hold a pen, a few pages of paper and an envelope on their bodies.

After doing this, the officers and soldiers of the brigade immediately began to prepare for the battle.

The job of preparing for battle is very simple and everyone can do it, that is to sleep.

For many officers and soldiers from Dan'ao who participated in the assault, what they need and lack the most is sleep.

The battle to annihilate the Fatehpur Army had just ended, and some officers and soldiers even participated in the oath-taking meeting while cleaning the battlefield. No one knew when the troops would have a good sleep after they set off from Zhanxi. Although soldiers could not meet their eyes for a week in the extreme state, no one was willing to give up the opportunity to have a good sleep before departure.

The sword thug: When the officers and soldiers of the Armored Assault Brigade went to bed, the other soldiers of the sword army did not stop.

According to Ling Yunxiao's instructions before going to bed, in addition to the Armored Assault Brigade in the south and the combat troops strengthening the Armored Assault Brigade, all combat units, including the Armored Assault Brigade who retreated to Manigpur to rest, must complete all preparations before the officers and soldiers of the Armored Assault Brigade get up. In other words, most of the preparations for the assault operation are responsible for other troops.

The commander wants to lead the A assault brigade to the front line in person, who dares to neglect?

At 8 o'clock on the day of the sword, amid the loud wake-up call, many officers and soldiers began to prepare before the battle with full energy.

For infantry, what needs to be done is to check the guns and ammunition they carry with them. According to the officer's instructions, each soldier brought an extra barrel. Because the ammunition is transported by vehicles, there is no need to consider too much. For armored soldiers, what needs to be done is to conduct a comprehensive inspection of armored vehicles. According to the basic requirements of long-distance raids, all tanks have changed tracks and gun barrels, check each group of ammunition one by one, replace lubricant oil, test the fire control system, and charge the battery discharge because infantry warfare

The vehicle is an armored platform for the battle of the pointed-supported infantry, so the driver of the infantry fighting vehicle must also prepare additional infantry ammunition. For logistics personnel, what they need to do is prepare spare parts and maintenance equipment according to the equipment status report submitted by the combat troops, and carry more ammunition for the combat troops. Because the front-line promises to provide supplies through airdrops, there is no need to carry too much daily necessities, or even cooking equipment, it is enough to bring about 10,000 servings of rations that last 3 days.

I saw that all the troops were preparing for the battle. The officers and soldiers who had no chance to participate in the assault were quit.

The artillery battalion of the Armored Assault Brigade was excluded by Ling Yunxiao. It was not important to have any muscles, but the Dan method made the artillery follow the assault troops to talk to the second. The power supply equipment in the electromagnetic gun system was too bulky and could not fight off-road. Although the front-line agreed to airdrop combined power supply equipment, the artillery's requirements for power far exceed that of the armored troops. The electricity consumed by the electromagnetic gun fire at one time was equivalent to that of the main battle tank. The combined power supply equipment could not meet the needs of the artillery. It was not that the artillery did not participate in the war, but that it was just staying in the west and using electromagnetic guns with a range of strong kilometers to support the assault troops.

No one dared to go to Ling Yunxiao to reason, because it was impossible to reason in front of Ling Yunxiao.

In order to prove that he was part of the Armored Assault Brigade and a strong backing for the assault troops, when the officers and soldiers of the assault troops were preparing for combat, the officers and soldiers of the artillery battalion also spontaneously prepared for combat and conducted comprehensive inspections of the electromagnetic gun system from the inside out.

The performance of the artillery battalion is worthy of recognition and commendation.

Their actions show that no matter when, the sword army is a whole, an indivisible whole.

As the sky gradually darkened, Ling Yunxiao came to the starting position located in the suburbs of west and northeast. In order to reduce the pressure of logistics support, Ling Yunxiao only brought a guard platoon. Although it was a reinforced platoon with an organization equivalent to a company, the commander took the initiative to reduce his own security guarantee, which still made the officers and soldiers of the brigade admire him.

Leading by example is definitely not a good example, but an action that implements details.

The sword sunrises and points the blade. The reconnaissance company of the Armored Assault Brigade was strengthened by the reconnaissance battalion directly under the brigade headquarters. The scale was equivalent to the reconnaissance battalion taking the lead and opening the way for the main force.

The thugs, the armored battalion left the starting position.

Like every attack in the past, no one except the vanguard was able to rush to Ling Yunxiao.

In the night, this torrent of the troops consisted of about the concave sword officers and soldiers, including the guard platoon brought by Ling Yunxiao and the military staff officers who assisted in command. The total force of the assault troops was two people, the main battle tank, the Zhaokou infantry fighting vehicle, and other types of tracked armored vehicles were injured and quietly left Zhanxi. Following the marks left by the reconnaissance force, they rushed to Gwalior to the north at a speed of nearly a thousand meters per hour.

From the perspective of armored forces alone, the size of the assault troops exceeded that of any main armored division of the Indian army.

If calculated based on the combat effectiveness of the armored troops, the assault troops can defeat at least three Indian army's main equipment early divisions in frontal battles.

There is no doubt that this is an extremely powerful armored assault force.

No wonder Pei Chengyi, after receiving the assault troops, gave the rest of his work to Yuan Chenhao with confidence.

With Ling Yunxiao's bravery and the strong combat power of the sword army, even if he can't beat nearly a hundred times the enemy, he can stab the Indian army several times the belly.

Of course, assault operations are definitely not easy.

According to the requirements of the previous instructions, the assault troops arrived in Gwalior before the Wushu army attacked Edavao, that is, before the Feiri 2:00 p.m., torture the three Indian second-line infantry divisions stationed there, and then rushed through Gwalior before dawn and marched towards Agra about a thousand meters south of New Delhi. Although Pei Chengyi did not ask that Agra must be defeated or to destroy Agra's garrison. However, the assault troops were clearly required to arrive in Agra, and they had to break through Agra's Indian defense line. They could not turn at the right time until the southern gate of New Delhi, that is, Mathura.

This is definitely not a simple assault mission.

Mathura is only three main divisions, including a thug and an armored division, away from New Delhi. More importantly, whether the assault troops can reach Mathura is a question, because more than 10,000 Indian troops stationed in Agra, even if they are all second-line troops and reserve troops, the defensive positions that have been built for nearly a month are already strong enough, and it is not difficult to block the assault troops. There is another problem that must be considered, that is, after the assault troops arrive in Gwalior, the Indian army in front will receive news and actively organize resistance. Although the troops that Ling Yunxiao fears have not yet been released, they must make a concerted effort to break through the two strategic defense lines of the Indian army. Promoting 300 kilometers in battle is a arduous test for any unit.

It seems that he has full confidence in Ling Yunxiao. Pei Chengyi did not ask about the specific tactics.

Only Ling Yunxiao knew how to fight.

There is only one thing that can be confirmed, that is, courage cannot solve the problem. The first round of assault must rely on wisdom.

Is Ling Yunxiao wise?

Pei Chengyi was not worried, but Yuan Wuhao was worried.

After the assault troops set off, Yuan Chenhao focused on assault operations and asked many consecutive questions about whether the artillery soldiers who were in support missions were ready. Although air support could support the assault troops more effectively during long-distance raids, the Wu army was about to attack Edavao, and the tactical aviation and the Army aviation were fully preparing to support the Nu army. Pei Chengyi also ordered the tactical aviation and the Army aviation to only take care of the Wu army and could not bomb the Indian army on the assault troops' march route in advance. Therefore, Yuan Chenhao could not provide air support to Ling Yunxiao.

Pei Chengyi's arrangement is also understandable. If the Indian army is bombed in advance, it is very likely to expose the assault operation. The choice to set out at night is to delay the exposure time of the assault troops and try to create opportunities for sudden attacks for Ling Yunxiao. More importantly, the state of the tactical aviation and the army aviation team plummeted, and the fighter jets that were scrapped due to failures in time only have exceeded the blade frame. There are dozens of combat-damaged fighters suspected to be related to mechanical failures. The situation of the land aviation is not much better, and the two aerial forces are

If the assault forces are supported, it is very likely that Zhang Jun will not receive air support when attacking Bhopal.

No matter what, the assault troops are assisting, and the summoning army is the main attack, and the main and secondary cannot be reversed.

With only artillery fire support, can the assault troops break through the first line of defense of the Indian army?

What made Yuan Chenhao even more uneasy was that artillery support was requested by the assault troops, that is to say, artillery can only be used after the assault troops issued a request. This was not Pei Chengyi's arrangement, but Ling Yunxiao's request. Although Pei Chengyi agreed, it still made Yuan Chenhao feel a little unstable. With Ling Yunxiao's personality, if he was addicted to it, whether he would call for artillery support was a problem.

In the next few hours, Yuan Chenhao stayed at the tactical command center and trotted forward when he went to the toilet.

The longer the time passes, the more worried Yuan Chenhao is.

Several hours passed, and the assault troops were like stones thrown into the sea, without even a pound of echo!

Not normal, very abnormal.

Feiri was 2:00 a.m., just when Yuan Chenhao was about to take the initiative to contact Ling Yunxiao, the communications officer finally received a message from the assault troops.

Request for artillery support!

Yuan Chenhao did not dare to hesitate and immediately asked the artillery brigade and several artillery battalions of the brigade to open fire according to the coordinates sent back by the assault troops.

After issuing this order, Yuan Chenhao discovered the problem.

The shelling area is not the Indian army's defensive position south of Gwalior, but the Indian army's defensive position north of Gwalior!

Don’t fight the enemy in front, but the enemy in the distance. Ling Yunxiao really wants to use armored troops to fight position assault war?

Yuan Chenhao was puzzled, but Pei Chengyi looked very clear.

It was not until the unmanned reconnaissance plane sent back the image of Gwalior. Yuan Chenhao suddenly understood. The assault troops had quietly broken through the Indian defense line and reached the north of Gwalior.

Not right!

Since the assault troops have passed Gwalior, why do you still have to shell Guahouer? Does Ling Yunxiao feel that the artillery behind is idle and have nothing to do, so he finds some Zhuo for the artillery?

Pei Chengyi still looked as stable as Mount Tai, and seemed to have no concern for the battle in the north.

Yuan Chenhao didn't bother Pei Chengyi, because the battle to attack Edavao was about to begin.

The shelling lasted for half an hour until the artillery battalions had all shots on the artillery positions.

After enduring it, Yuan Chenhao still didn't contact Ling Yunxiao in the end.

In any case, the assault troops have broken through Gwalior and are exactly the same as the plan.

Yuan Chenhao did not understand what the Assault Department believed that it would request shelling the Indian Army positions of Gwalior. First, he was not on the front line, and second, he did not understand Ling Yunxiao's tactical intentions.

The focus of shelling Gwalior was not Ling Yunxiao who was preparing for retreat. Although according to the plan, if the assault was not smooth, you could withdraw Gwalior along the original path. Then choose another assault direction, from the beginning, Ling Yunxiao only considered the attack and never thought about retreating.

At this point, it is definitely wrong to say that Ling Yunxiao has no brains.

The assault troops were able to bypass Gwalior quietly. It was not that the electric combat vehicles were low noise, but that the assault troops did not march on the highway at all. Instead, they marched across the De River by swimming across the river and avoided the Indian defensive positions from the east of Gwalior. This is why when the assault troops arrived in the north of Gwalior, the Indian army still knew nothing.

The shelling of Gwalior is not to warm up the artillery, nor is it necessary.

Ling Yunxiao is only one pound. Purpose: to create panic.

During the shelling, Ling Yunxiao left an armored force equivalent to the battalion-level size north of Gwalior and launched several inconsistencies on the Indian positions.

This trick is very clever and effective.

The armored troops suddenly appeared in the north of Gwalior. The Indian army guarding Gwalior immediately believed that Gwalior had been surrounded by the Republic's army. The opponent launched an attack in the rear first, and must have wanted to lead the defenders to the north and make the southern positions have no troops to defend. Create conditions for a frontal attack. If the Republic's army attacked Gwalior in large quantities, it would be difficult to defend with the old ten thousand Indian army alone, so the Indian commander immediately requested support and demanded that the enemy Lu in the north of Gwalior be wiped out as soon as possible and the logistics supply channel from Gwalior to Agra is opened. The only Indian army stationed in Agra is able to support Gwalior. Because Gwalior's defenders mentioned the armored troops in the report, Agra's defenders also sent thugs to a main division.

This is what Ling Yunxiao wants to achieve. He asked Agra's defenders to rescue Gwalior.

Because Agra is on the periphery of the "Greater New Delhi Defense Zone", the position that needs to be guarded, Kuanda thugs. A main division headed south to Gwalior, and loopholes would also appear on the Indian defense line. Ling Yunxiao has sent the reconnaissance troops to the front and can discover loopholes on the Indian defense line in time. At the speed of the assault force, even if it only takes 2 hours, it can pass through the Indian defense position.

After all, Ling Yunxiao did not plan to fight the Indian army for the first time.

The battle behind is still very long. If you are exhausted after fighting for one night, how can you fight later?

Letting the shelling last for a minute can also be seen as Ling Yunxiao taking advantage of his mistakes. Pei Chengyi clearly asked to fight the Gwalior defenders, but did not make any specific explanation. In other words, whether it is an assault force or a support force, as long as it can scare the Gwalior defenders, it will be completed. The silent breakthrough of the Indian defense line and the fierce shelling of the blade minutes will definitely make the Gwalior defenders urinate.
