Chapter 148: Collective Command
Under the leadership of Commander Cheng Wenfeng, the Thousand Marines marched towards Monkey Stone Mountain while it was dark, and they were on guard all the way. While advancing, they were careful to prevent them, fearing that they would be ambushed. However, the Qing army was not sure about night battles, so the Marines were in danger. After more than an hour, they finally met with the miscellaneous team of Tong Meishan.
After the meeting, this miscellaneous team became even more mixed. The teams here originally had special forces, Wu Sangui's personal army, Ming army new army, and North Korean army, and now there was another marine. The people in this marine were originally the sailors of Zheng Zhilong's navy, and their best skills were fire attacks and jump gangs. After years of pirates, after the Battle of the Taiwan Strait, these people officially became members of the Ming army navy. Zheng Zhibao felt that these marines had been trained for three months, regardless of each
New firearms can be used freely, and they seem to be able to compete with the new army. When it comes to amphibious combat, the Marines are unique. Zheng Zhibao treasures his own broom and treats his Marines as treasures. However, in Wu Sangui's opinion, these pirates are reliable in fighting and killing in the water. As for fighting on land, Wu Sangui doesn't look down on Zheng Zhibao's Marines at all. Not to mention that Wu Sangui doesn't look down on him, Tong Meishan doesn't look down on him, so the mission of sneak attack is not as good as the Marines.
Tong Meishan didn't expect that he would eventually have to rescue the Marines. At the foot of Monkey Stone Mountain, facing the miscellaneous teams from various camps, Tong Meishan felt very funny. However, with such a team that was too miscellaneous to be more miscellaneous, he had to fight with the Tartars. The reinforcements of the Korean army finally barely accepted Tong Meishan's command, but now another Marine commander came, and the command problem was highlighted again. Fortunately, the Tartars did not attack now, so a few people from several teams had to sit down and figure out what to do next.
In terms of military strength, of course, the number of Marines as the regiment commander was the largest, with a total of 1,000 soldiers and horses. The second was the Korean New Army, with more than 370 people. The Ming New Army would not make trouble, and they all obeyed Tong Meishan. However, Tong Meishan's men, even the special forces members, Wu Sangui's personal soldiers, and the Korean New Army had only 200 people, which could not match the Chengwenfeng Marine Corps.
The first year of high school is a Jinyiwei, and he does not lead troops, so he has a detached identity and is difficult for others to talk to. The first year of high school has no scruples, so the first year of high school has become the meeting host. The first year of high school has seen Tong Meishan's command ability, and of course he is biased towards Tong Meishan, but he has to be better said:
"Sir, Company Commander Tong led 300 troops to fight. It can be said that he got his wish and burned the Tartars' warships with fire. It has made a lot of contributions. However, the sneak attack on Monkey Stone Mountain was not good. The abominable Japanese pirates buried many landmines on Monkey Stone Mountain. The Japanese pirates had tight defense and our army failed to attack. The Tartars came with a large number of reinforcements. The men and horses led by Leng Xuhai are now trapped on the hillside and cannot go up and down. The Tartars have more and more reinforcements. Fortunately, Commander Park came to help in time and rescue them urgently! Now that the Marine Corps, who became the regiment commander, is reinforced, the battle is much easier. However, the team is a bit complicated. Regarding the issue of unified command, several people discussed and decided to solve the problem of unified command as soon as possible. Before this, they were all commanders of Company Commander Tong. I didn't know how to fight, but I admired him very much when I see that Company Commander Tong was determined."
After Park Dazhi was defeated, he saw that Tong Meishan was commanding with a scrupulous command, so he naturally had nothing to say at this time. But when Cheng Wenfeng heard this, a small company commander wanted to command his own thousand elite soldiers. Cheng Wenfeng was just like Park Dazhi once did not take Tong Meishan seriously, just because no one told him that Park Dazhi was defeated miserably, and Cheng Wenfeng is now a virtue. Cheng Wenfeng said:
"Captain Park and Company Commander Tong have made great contributions, but the losses are also great. I said, I should leave some of this contribution to our Marines. It is better for the two teams to rest first. Next, let our Marines play the lead. Just leave these two or three thousand Tartars to our Marines. What? When it comes to the credit, Cheng will never take it exclusively."
After hearing the words of the leader of the group, Park Dazhi was happy. Why did this say be the same as what he said to Tong Meishan at the time! The arrogance of not taking the Tartars seriously was almost the same. Park Dazhi smiled bitterly in his heart. Although he had reluctantly accepted Tong Meishan's command, he still felt very upset. He sighed and said that according to this situation, the command power might really fall into the leader of the group, but he didn't know if the leader of the group had real talents. If he was commanding blindly, it would be ruined.
Gao Yipeng was very suspicious about whether the Marines could fight on land. It seemed that they had not heard of the Marines' contributions on land. Gao Yipeng certainly heard what Cheng Wenfeng meant. If he could not be the commander-in-chief, no one else could be able to command the Marines. Gao Yipeng was very opposed to Cheng Wenfeng as the commander-in-chief. Of course, this sentence could not be said directly, so he said:
"To become a regiment commander, the situation is not optimistic now. There are 5,000 Taurus soldiers in Lushun alone, including 3,000 cavalry. Also, although the Qing Navy's navy was burned, the navy's personnel did not suffer much loss. You should know that the Qing Navy had more than 2,000 people, and these people were also soldiers, so don't underestimate it. In addition, there are 3,000 Taurus cavalry stationed in Jinzhou Guards, and Gaizhou and Fuzhou Guards are not far from here. Five or six thousand cavalry can also be gathered in the two places. If the Taurus really wants to reinforce with all their strength, 15,600 troops will be able to gather here soon. At that time, it will be a fierce battle. If our army cannot command in a unified manner, its combat power will be greatly reduced. How can it fight against the rushing Tartars! Please think twice as the leader!"
Tong Meishan was anxious. If he had surrounded thousands of Tartars, the battle would have been harder and harder. The situation was already extremely dangerous. However, judging from this situation, Cheng Wenfeng would never obey orders. He was really worried about handing over command to such a guy who had never commanded a new type of firearm to fight. Tong Meishan had no choice but to say:
"Tong took the liberty to say something, let's see how it is. Here, the leader of the regiment is the leader of the regiment, and the leader of the regiment is also the leader of the regiment. I was assigned by the King of Zhenliao to direct this sneak attack, which was also the prince personally appointed. Tong's plan was incompetent, which led to the battle of Monkey Stone Mountain into a melee, but I was entrusted by the prince, so I dare not shirk responsibility. I think this is better. The three of us, the leader of the regiment, the leader of the regiment, and I, as well as the general of the King of Zhenliao, Leng Xuhai, and the new army's company commander Qiu, the five of us, set up a command team. As the saying goes, three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang, and the commander of the five of us. Whenever we discuss, if three people agree, we will do the same according to this idea, how about it?"
When Park Dazhi heard this idea, he immediately applauded, because he had the right to speak, and he was very satisfied, of course he agreed with both hands.
Cheng Wenfeng thought about it and was not as satisfactory as to establish a command team, but Park Dazhi was a regiment commander and he was on the same level as him. He also knew that the special forces were not ordinary people, and he was appointed by the King of Zhenliao, so he could only accept it with a pinch of his nose. He just used the excuse that Leng Xuhai and Company Commander Qiu were trapped on the hillside, so the command team wanted to send Leng Xuhai and Company Commander Qiu aside.
After discussion, we finally formed a "three-person group" command team. The members of the three-person group were Cheng Wenfeng, Park Dazhi and Tong Meishan, and the collective command was working. Tong Meishan shook his head in his heart. What's this all? Seeing that a bloody battle was about to begin, I started this inappropriate "three-person group" at his own suggestion. At that time, the battle would be arguing, and that would be bad!
The first combat plan of the "Three-man Group" was to send troops to touch the mountainside and reinforce Leng Xuhai and the others. The three of them were very consistent in this regard. Of course, the field battle was Director Tong Meishan. Cheng and Park could not argue, so Tong Meishan commanded the night battle.
At the end, Tong Meishan pulled the first year of high school to the side. Tong Meishan and the first year of high school felt the situation was serious, and the command of this "three-man group" with inherent shortcomings was a bit nonsense. The most urgent task was to request reinforcements and clarify unified commands.
As the Jinyiwei, the first year of high school, he naturally had more information. This guy was also very smart. After thinking for a long time, he finally got a solution. After saying it out, Tong Meishan heard it, and it was indeed a solution. Since Tong Meishan agreed, the first year of high school did not hesitate, and immediately took action and arranged it overnight.
(The company has been a little busy recently, and the update will be affected. Let me explain it.)
