Chapter 1009 Harassment plan
After getting the intelligence personnel's information about the Mughal Empire's invasion force, Qu Mao waved the intelligence personnel away. After all, he is a front-line intelligence personnel of the Ministry of Intelligence. Qu Mao didn't want him to be delayed for too long at the Yancheng construction site. To increase the risk of exposure, the best arrangement for front-line intelligence personnel is to continue to collect local intelligence.
Since he already knew that the Mughal Empire’s invading troops were going to build the city on the one hand and increase troops on the other hand, Qu Mao naturally couldn’t just sit back and watch the Mughal Empire go ahead so smoothly, so he asked Su Yan to call the frontline heroes to come to a meeting as soon as possible.
At 7:00 p.m. on May 2nd in the fifth year of Tianxuan, almost all the heroes of the border confrontation forces between the Marquis of Moner and the Mughal Empire had arrived at the zero-level residential building on the construction site of Yancheng where Qu Mao was located. The first-class houses were packed to the brim.
A group of people ate a simple military dinner in the zero-level residence, while listening to Qu Mao introduce the information given by the intelligence personnel and Qu Mao's own thoughts.
Mo Yangqiao cheered up in an instant, and said, "My lord, you are not worried that we will break up the Mughal Empire's invasion force? If we want to attack the Mughal Empire's invasion force, the subordinates think that they will be wiped out at once. Let's wait for their reinforcements." After arriving, we will eliminate their reinforcements once again, at most we will not attack the territory of the Mughal Empire."
Su Buqing said: "My lord, what your lord means is to harass the fortress over there and eliminate as many soldiers there as possible. If you mean a complete defeat, we must have paid a lot for the soldiers here."
Qu Mao asked: "Mo Yangqiao, the Mughal Empire is now recruiting fighters from affiliated forces. How many reinforcements do you think they can gather?"
Mo Yangqiao said: "My lord, the Mughal Empire has 3 subordinate kingdoms, 3 directly subordinate principalities and 5 directly subordinate princes. Under the 3 subordinate kingdoms, there are subordinate principalities. Under the subordinate principalities, there are subordinate princes. I think that if the emperor of the Mughal Empire ordered the call-up, I am afraid that 2 million troops can be called up to the front line."
Su Yan said: "If the Mughal Empire's invading troops receive 2 million reinforcements, then our military advantage will no longer be there."
Jia Kui smiled and said: "Master Su Yan, we still have an advantage in military strength. The Mughal Empire recruited reinforcements from subordinate forces. I am afraid that the troops are mainly second-tier fighters and third-tier fighters. Our fighters are relatively high-ranking. be taller."
Qu Mao nodded and said, "Before Mo Yangqiao suggested that we defeat the Mughal Empire's invading forces, but we were worried that after defeating the Mughal Empire's invading forces, it would put pressure on our 1,200-kilometer border defense. .
If the Mughal Empire reinforces 2 million troops, then we will also face defensive pressure on the 1,200-kilometer border. "
Mo Yangqiao said excitedly: "My lord, it is still necessary to resolutely eliminate their current invading troops and not give them a chance to gather with reinforcements."
Qu Mao waved his hand and said, "My idea is, before the reinforcements from the Mughal Empire's invasion force arrive, at least the walls of the 12 towns on the border will be built, even if the first-order walls are built, no matter how slow You can also upgrade slowly.
In addition, there are 12 towns with city walls, all of which are guarded by our second-tier archers and third-tier swordsmen troops.
Furthermore, without sacrificing our soldiers, we cannot always be passively harassed by the Mughal Empire's invading troops, which is not in line with our current force size and our combat intention here.
Yan Liang frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Sir, to complete your low-loss or no-loss raid operations, we must dispatch high-mobility troops.
All in all, the fourth-tier light cavalry unit is more suitable, and the harassing fourth-tier light cavalry unit cannot be surrounded by the enemy's fifth-tier heavy cavalry within the territory of the Mughal Empire. It can only be gradually eaten away by the enemy. "
Zhang He echoed: "Master Yan Liang's views are the same as those of his subordinates, but his subordinates do not agree that the fourth-tier light cavalry troops will be easily blocked by the Mughal Empire within the territory of the Mughal Empire.
At present, in our confrontation area, there is at least 100 kilometers of open grassland between the mountains and the lake. Any position is enough for our fourth-tier light cavalry troops to withdraw safely.
Even if the Mughal Empire invaded troops dispatched a large number of fifth-tier heavy cavalry, our fourth-tier light cavalry could even run a little further. I believe that the existing forces of the Mughal Empire are not enough to block the 1,200-kilometer-long border Wire. "
Lu Bu asked cautiously: "My lord, what if we can dispatch some troops to contain the fifth-tier heavy cavalry in the camp of the Mughal Empire's invading troops?
Although we are going to attack and harass, our total force far exceeds the Mughal Empire's invasion force. "
Su Buqing's eyes lit up, and he said: "My lord, dispatch multiple fourth-tier light cavalry troops to harass the construction site of the Mughal Empire at multiple points, and our heavy cavalry troops knocked on the camp.
If the invading troops of the Mughal Empire dare to go back to defend the construction site, we will smash their camp; if they defend the camp, our fourth-tier light cavalry troops will retreat directly after the harassment.
After all, there are still a large number of infantry soldiers in the guarding base and the Mughal Empire invasion force camp. As long as their cavalry troops leave, the infantry is nothing. "
A group of heroes chattered and discussed.
After everyone had a clear discussion, Qu Mao said: "In this way, Su Buqing led 30,000 fifth-tier imperial guards, Yan Liang led 30,000 fifth-tier heavy cavalry, and I and the two of them will attack the camp head-on.
Wen Qiu, Mo Yangqiao, and Wei Qubing each led a team of 5,000 fourth-tier light cavalry troops to attack Jiancheng from different directions. What do you think? "
Su Buqing said: "My lord, Master Jia Kui stays at the garrison camp, Sandroulie and others lead the fourth-level guards to guard the construction sites of Maocheng and Yancheng, so as to prevent the enemy from changing cities with us."
Jia Kui said disdainfully: "My lord, we have 1.8 million troops here, and your lord can only dispatch 200,000 troops. If you dare, the Mughal Empire invasion troops will come, and you can leave as many subordinates as you want.
It is the heavy cavalry who knocked on the battalion. There must be fourth-tier crusaders and fourth-tier guards in the formation, otherwise it will be difficult to retreat. "
A group of heroes continued to discuss the details of the attack, and finally decided to dispatch a total of 30,000 Tier 4 light cavalry, 30,000 Tier 5 palace guards, 30,000 Tier 5 heavy cavalry, and a large number of Tier 4 crusaders and Tier 4 guards the next day , Carried out retaliatory raids and harassment operations against the Mughal Empire.
