Chapter 475 Advance to Fifty Villages
Qu Mao stayed in Zhongdao until the evening of June 5th in the third year of Tianxuan before returning to the five-story building in Jidao. At around 12 noon that day, the fifth captive operation initiated by the Yi Village Territory Army officially came to an end.
The fifth capture operation lasted for three days and three nights. Not only did the army of Yicun Territory harvest 30,000 prisoners of war, but it also allowed Xuande to build 30 brand new villages south of the Jihai emergency line of defense.
It’s just that these 30 newly built new villages, like the 10 villages around the Zhongdao Prisoner of War Camp, have not many residents, but the number of army soldiers will be more.
Hearing the news that Qu Mao had returned to Ji Island, Zhao Pan and Chafidel rushed to the fifth-floor building in Ji Village overnight regardless of the time, and found Qu Mao who was about to go upstairs to rest.
Qu Mao asked in astonishment: "Zhao Pan, Chafidel, you are so anxious to find me, is there any problem in the fifth prisoner capture operation? Or is there any major result in this three-day battle?" ?”
Zhao Pan scratched his head, but did not speak.
Chafidel laughed and said: "My lord, not at all!
The fifth prisoner capture operation was mainly aimed at capturing prisoners of war. Killing and injuring the enemy was not our first priority in operations. In order to cover Master Xuande, we built 30 brand new villages south of the Jihai emergency line of defense. Our army did not Massively killed the vital force of the third batch of invasion fleet landing troops of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance. "
Qu Mao didn't quite understand what Chafidel meant when he said that, and asked suspiciously: "So... what do you two mean by coming to me?"
Zhao Pan scratched his head again, and said: "My lord, what this subordinate means is that our army will strike while the iron is hot and continue to attack the third batch of invasion fleet landing troops of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance..."
Qu Mao glared at Zhao Pan, and said, "Damn it! Zhao Pan, is your head a little hot? Did the 8,000 reinforcements go to your head?
The fifth prisoner capture operation lasted three days and three nights, has your army rested yet? Is your army still capable of fighting? "
Zhao Pan said: "My lord, this subordinate is not overheated.
Just imagine, this time we killed 10,000 enemy troops, captured 30,000 prisoners, and we haven't counted the number of enemy troops who were injured or partially lost combat power.
The third batch of invasion fleet landing troops of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance has only 140,000 to 160,000 troops left on Jidao, and the actual combat capable troops are only 130,000 to 150,000.
After we obtained 8,000 self-trained reinforcements from outlying islands, the available troops on Jidao have reached more than 35,000. Now we are not 30,000 vs. 180,000 in combat power compared with the third batch of invasion fleet landing troops of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance, but 35,000 vs. 130,000.
My lord, the disparity in strength between us and the landing force of the third invasion fleet of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance is getting smaller and smaller, and my subordinates feel that we can strike while the iron is hot and continue to take the initiative to launch attacks. The third batch of invasion fleet landing troops of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance will surely Being beaten without temper by us, our chances of winning are great. "
Now the time has come to the night of June 5th in the third year of Tianxuan. Whether the Yi Village Territory can end the war before June 30th depends on whether the army fights fiercely enough.
The 99,900 self-owned resident recruitment coupons that Lai Diema sold to the territory of Yi Village in June are now lying quietly in Qu Mao's backpack, waiting for Su Yan to come to pick them up or Qu Mao to find someone to deliver to Su Yan.
Originally, Qu Mao wanted Su Yan to trade by herself, but in the end, Su Yan was busy with other things, Su Qiaoer and others didn't have time, and the other heroes who had time didn't have enough gold coins, so Qu Mao had to trade first. When it's over, find someone to deliver it or Su Yan can come and pick it up.
After thinking about these factors, Qu Maochang exhaled and said: "How about this, Zhao Pan, Chafidel, you two have just finished the fifth prisoner capture operation, and take a good rest for the army soldiers.
With the current strength of the third batch of invasion fleet landing troops of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance on Jidao Island, I estimate that after the fifth prisoner capture operation, they will not be able to launch a decent counterattack.
Just take advantage of this time, our army soldiers have a good rest, I personally do not recommend launching an offensive immediately, after all, although our army soldiers are much higher in rank than the third batch of invasion fleet landing troops of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance, the number of them is small after all , Continuous combat can easily make our soldiers exhausted and unable to exert their due combat power.
My suggestion is to wait for the temporary break, or when new reinforcements arrive, you can freely choose the opportunity to launch the Jidao offensive to attack the third batch of invasion fleet landing troops of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance.
It’s fine if you don’t fight, but if you want to fight, you have to fight the third batch of invasion fleet landing troops of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance.
And I hope you can discuss it with Xuande. If the Jidao offensive is launched, I don’t want it to be just an army operation. I hope that Xuande will cooperate with your offensive and continue to push our territory southward, at least on the Jihai emergency line of defense. Rebuild 50 brand new villages further south of the
Not only to cooperate with the more than 100,000 self-owned residents that our Yicun territory will soon acquire, but also to continue to expand the area we actually control in Jidao to the south, creating conditions for us to launch a general offensive.
If both the Jidao Offensive and the Xuande Village Advance strategy can be successfully implemented, it means that our territory will have a total of 996 villages on the 5 islands, and the upper limit of resettlement of the Yi Village territory has been greatly expanded. . "
Zhao Pan immediately said: "My lord, my subordinates feel that your suggestion is feasible.
There is another piece of news that I haven’t told you. Lord Sunan sent a remote communication, telling his subordinates that the next wave of reinforcements sent by the Liuwang Principality will total 3,000 people and will arrive at Beigang, Jidao at the latest around 6:00 tomorrow night.
Not only that, our Yi Village Territory also has 7,000 self-trained elite soldiers on Yi Island and outlying islands, and they will arrive at Beigang of Ji Island at around 9 am the day after tomorrow.
Ji Island has about 2,000 fighters who can be put into battle in the last two days. "
Qu Mao’s heart moved, he thought about it, and said, “Damn it! Zhao Pan, Chafidel, since your army has 12,000 newly recruited combatable soldiers, why did you talk nonsense before!
I allow you to launch the Jidao offensive at any time on June 8th. The reason why I gave you two days and two nights is mainly to facilitate your army and Xuande to discuss tactics in order to realize my request. The Haikyu line of defense was successfully built further south. "
Zhao Pan and Chafidel stood up happily, and said in unison: "Yes, my lord, I will not disgrace my life!"
