Chapter 145 The Guards Corps, Turned Out!(2/2)
After Yue Fei saluted again, he stopped being polite and began to make combat arrangements: "In the daytime battle, the coalition forces once again lost more than 180,000 people, and the total strength has been reduced sharply to less than 670,000 people."
This is undoubtedly good news for Chang'an's upcoming major counterattack.
Logically speaking, it is very time-consuming to count casualty data like this, not to mention the enemy's, but also our own, and the enemy's casualties are even more difficult to evaluate.
But Tang Jing couldn't stand it. There were new kill value and glory value data, which could be easily deduced in reverse.
From this, we can grasp the enemy's first-hand casualty data.
Of course, what Tang Jing has is only the total daily casualty data of the coalition forces, specifically which army has how many people were killed, how many were seriously injured, and how many were lightly injured.
This is unknown.
We can only make a simple prediction based on the intensity of the attack.
Average it down.
The enemy's Central Route Army, East Route Army, South Route Army and West Route Army each suffered about 45,000 casualties.
Among them.
Because the Central Route Army was responsible for attacking Jingyaomen, the total casualties would be greater.
Compared with the sharp decrease in the combat strength of the coalition forces, Chang'an's side has added more than 12,500 wild warriors overnight, and the overall combat strength has actually experienced a wave of improvement.
A new batch of infantry armor and Mingguang armor were also deployed.
If you are a little more adventurous, you can even give up the previous strategy of surrounding three and missing one and attack directly from all sides.
After discussion.
To be on the safe side, we should continue to implement the strategy of surrounding three and missing one.
The difference is that the fourth division under the Tiance Army will not participate in the attacks on the East Route Army, South Route Army, and West Route Army, but will be mainly responsible for pursuing the enemy's Middle Route Army.
Even if the Central Army cannot be completely wiped out, it can still be severely damaged.
Acting with the Fourth Division was the newly formed Second Cavalry Division of the Guards Corps.
Yue Fei started to order generals.
"The Longxiang Army is responsible for attacking the enemy's Western Route Army and South Route Army. The specific deployment is-"
"The 1st, 7th, and 8th divisions are responsible for attacking the enemy's Western Route Army."
"General Lian Po will serve as the commander-in-chief."
"The Third and Sixth Divisions, together with the First Guards Infantry Division, are responsible for attacking the enemy's Southern Route Army."
"General Xue Rengui will serve as the commander-in-chief."
"The Tiance Army is responsible for attacking the enemy's East Route Army and Middle Route Army. The specific deployment is-"
"The fifth, ninth, and tenth divisions are responsible for attacking the enemy's Eastern Route Army."
"General Guo Ziyi will serve as the commander-in-chief."
"The Second Division is responsible for attacking the approximately 50,000 enemy troops deployed by the Central Route Army on the south bank of the Mero River."
"General Chang Yuchun will serve as the commander-in-chief."
"The fourth division, together with the second division of the Guards Cavalry, is responsible for crossing the Mero River and attacking the enemy's center route."
"General Shirakawa will serve as the commander-in-chief."
The chief general of the five armies is either the commander of the legion or the deputy commander.
The lineup is luxurious!
When the military order is given, the generals will happily accept the order.
There was only one person who was not happy, but it was Zhang Liao, the commander of the Chang'an garrison division. He stood up, clasped his fists and said, "May I ask, general, what is the combat mission of the Chang'an garrison division in this major counterattack?"
"The Chang'an garrison has been guarding the city for half a month and is very tired. It is time to rest in the city." Yue Fei replied.
This is not a shirk.
The 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th divisions that were also responsible for defending the city, including their predecessors' four-way garrison, took turns during the process. Only the Chang'an garrison division remained at its position.
It is true that a rest is needed.
Zhang Liao did not appreciate it and said loudly: "General, the Chang'an garrison division belongs to the city guard corps and is also a member of the Chang'an army. In this major counterattack, the Chang'an army came out in full force, so the participation of the garrison division cannot be avoided."
"The garrison division can not only defend, but also participate in the attack!!!"
"We are not tired, we will finally fight!"
As soon as these words came out, all the generals present, including Tang Jing, could not help but be moved by it.
Yue Fei looked at Tang Jing, saw Tang Jing nodded slightly, and then said: "Okay, then ask the Chang'an garrison to be responsible for the interception mission on the Gray Water River. Be sure to stop the enemy's West Route Army and South Route Army from escaping to Monroe County.
.”
"yes!"
Zhang Liao accepted the order happily and immediately grinned.
Chapter completed!
