Vol 2 Chapter 1350: unwilling navy

After these materials are transported here, it is basically difficult to use heavy-duty carriages to quickly transport them to the front line on a large scale, because after arriving here, there are basically no good roads such as official roads for heavy-duty carriages to pass.

Although these heavy-duty four-wheeled carriages have a heavy load, they have relatively high requirements on the road. Although it does not require a cement-hardened road, it must also be a smooth, solid gravel and soil road.

If you continue to use horse-drawn carriages to transport materials on this road, you must reduce the load, or simply use a two-wheeled horse-drawn carriage.

In the eyes of the military, this is not worth the loss, because it will consume a lot of horses. It is better to free up the horses for the front-line troops and the heavy and fast transportation in the rear.

Horses are very valuable materials, and although the army has used a lot of horses, it has to be mentioned that most of the military horses are concentrated in the front-line troops. Concentrated in the troop's baggage unit, they need horses to take on the last leg of transportation in the most dangerous, frontline places.

At the same time, from the port to the strategic material reserve station, because the road is good, the heavy four-wheeled carriage can play a role, so this section of the road is also equipped with a lot of horses.

As for the strategic material reserve station, and the distance to the front-line material transfer station, a lot of manpower and wheelbarrows were used.

The horse-drawn carriage will not be the main means of transportation for this part of the journey, the wheelbarrow is!

Although the unicycle is a waste of manpower, it basically has no requirements on the road, and the transportation volume is not small, so it can be used as the main transportation for this road section.

But after arriving at the front-line material transfer station, the next transportation became mainly carriages, because the front-line material transfer station went further, that is, it was transported to various troops.

This section of the journey is often within 50 kilometers. However, because this section is already in the combat range, the possibility of enemies appearing is extremely high. For safety, using a carriage is the best choice.

Based on years of experience, the Datang Army has summed up a set of tactics for field defense relying on four-wheeled carriages. The most basic tactic is to encounter the enemy, especially when the enemy's cavalry is attacked. The four carriages are directly connected end to end to form The hollow carriage formation, the soldiers rely on the carriage to defend.

This method of defense is quite effective. Although there are only four carriages and there are only a dozen or twenty soldiers, even if dozens of cavalry encounter this kind of carriage, their scalps will be numb. A car formation like a small fortress often needs to pay a heavy price to conquer it.

What's more, the formation of four carriages is only the most basic tactics. In actual combat, dozens of vehicles are often dispatched together, and even large-scale operations are dozens or hundreds of vehicles. Such a huge estimate. Even if there are hundreds or even thousands of enemy cavalry, it will be very difficult for the formation of vehicles. Although it is sometimes possible to break through this type of vehicle formation, it often results in heavy casualties.

The good defense of the vehicle array is also an important reason for the large-scale application of the Datang Army, and it is very fond of using four-wheeled carriages.

From the factory to the port, from the port to the strategic reserve station, to the front-line transfer station, and then to the front-line troops, the ammunition and other logistical supplies are continuously transported to the front-line and used by the troops.

Of course, if you just want to transport temporarily, it is naturally impossible. In fact, in order to launch the Northeast campaign, the empire transported materials more than half a year in advance, and a large amount of materials have been transported to major strategic reserves in advance. In the warehouse, it was also a transit station that transported a part of it to the front line in advance, and even the troops carried a large amount of materials with the army.

Even if the rear is not producing and transporting materials, the strategic materials stored in the Northeast region alone are enough to sustain the army for more than half a year of operations.

However, it is clear that the battle in the Northeast cannot be over in half a year. It is only the maneuvering time in the early stage. Even if the Chahar, Duoyan and other tribes are finished, there are still many messy indigenous needs. fight.

The Army estimates that there is hope to end the main battle within half a year. When winter comes, the main battle is over, and then the troops begin to enter the stage of rest and recuperation. At the same time, a small-scale clearing operation will be launched. Massive sweep attack.

The duration of the entire Northeast campaign may last more than two years.

Of course, in the past two years, it does not mean that there are wars every day. In fact, the time before and after the outbreak of large-scale battles in the war is estimated to be only a few months. Most of the remaining time is to adjust the troops and rest, Replenish supplies and conduct small-scale clearing operations.

This is the estimate of the army's top management, but Fang Xitong has other ideas. He hopes to advance the front line to Heilongjiang before this winter. As for the purge operation, he hopes that when the main force is fighting at the front, the rear The reserve division troops were deployed at the same time.

If you want to describe Fang Xitong's strategic plan, then the main force is the fist, ruthlessly annihilating the large-scale enemy and defeating the large-scale enemy, and the reserve force in the rear is the Shuzi, following up in the rear to eliminate the remaining small-scale enemies.

This way you don't have to go back and re-comb.

According to Fang Xitong's strategic plan, the requirements for the cavalry troops are even higher. He asked the cavalry troops led by Kang Changning to be able to maneuver in place within half a month, cut off the contact between the enemy's ministries, and then attack the enemy's troops. Each of the divisions will be destroyed individually.

Kang Changning, who had already started the attack with his troops, also knew that the core of his operation this time was to be fast.

It's so close that the alien tribes can't react. Before they can react, they will be divided and surrounded, not giving them time to mobilize their troops, and preventing them from fleeing north.

Because Fang Xitong was unwilling to simply repel them, and after these aliens reacted and assembled, they would need to face counterattacks from these people.

On April 26, the 1st Cavalry Regiment led by Kang Changning, the 2nd Cavalry Regiment and the 3rd Cavalry Regiment, which cooperated with him in the battle, ran for more than 200 kilometers in one go after several days of raids.

At this time, in fact, Kang Changning had already surrounded several small tribes of Chahar people behind him, but he did not waste time attacking them on the road, but did not stop at all and ran wildly.

After several days of rushing, the tens of thousands of cavalrymen continued to run north after resting for two days!

This time, they ran more than 200 kilometers north again in one breath!

By May 2, the three cavalry regiments led by Kang Changning had already appeared in the core area of ​​several major tribes in Chahar!

Next, there will inevitably be a large-scale war with the local aliens!

When Kang Changning led more than 40,000 cavalry troops to fight with the Chahar Department, the infantry and other Chinese troops led by Fang Xitong in the rear were still more than 200 kilometers away!

However, the connection between the two parties has not been broken!

Through the constant notification of the messenger, Fang Xitong has always been aware of the movements of Kang Changning's subordinates. Although it was usually two or three days after he learned the news, at least he knew the news and would not be confused.

When Fang Xitong and Kang Changning and other generals were fighting in the northeast, the navy also launched its own operations, that is, the landing of Vladivostok and the estuary of Heilongjiang.

In this operation, although the navy did not communicate with the army, it still reported to Li Xuan. Li Xuan also felt that if the navy could control Vladivostok and gain access to the estuary of Suifenhe, it would be able to cooperate with the army to attack Shuangcheng in the future. .

On the other side of Heilongjiang, there are no large-scale alien enemies, but it is located in the far north, and supplies are difficult. If the navy can get through Heilongjiang and control Heilongjiang, then it can rely on Heilongjiang to establish a river supply line, which will give Great convenience for the Army to operate in the aforementioned areas.

Therefore, Li Xuan also approved the action of the navy.

As for the Army, although there are some doubts about the Suifenhe and Heilongjiang plans that the Navy suddenly did at this time, but since the Navy did it on its own, the Army was too lazy to take care of it.

Today, the focus of the army is on the Northeast Campaign. The core task is to annihilate the left-wing Mongolian tribes such as Chahar and Duoyan Sanwei, followed by the annihilation of the various messy indigenous tribes entrenched in the eastern part of the Northeast and the Northeast.

If the navy can establish a river supply line, it will also bring great benefits to the army, so the army is also happy to see it.

Of course, in the early stage of all this, the navy should not expect the army to help them, let alone occupy the supplies in the northeast region. If the navy wants to do it, the navy has to do it by itself.

In this regard, the Navy has no opinion at all!

Anyway, the navy is not an army~www.wuxiaspot.com~ There is no need to dispatch too many troops in the above-mentioned combat areas, at most it is only a few thousand marines.

As for supplies, the navy is preparing to transport them from Busan Port. In addition, they can also obtain certain supplies from the Fusang area.

At present, the Datang Empire has established a colony in Fushan City on Ezo Island, and from this colony can also obtain certain supplies nearby.

After obtaining permission from Li Xuan, the navy quickly started the operation. The naval fleet stationed in Busan set sail and carried a battalion of marines to Vladivostok.

According to the information previously detected by the navy, Vladivostok is still a wilderness, only a few indigenous people live here, and there is not even a small-scale town.
