Chapter 1387

A few days later, the most prosperous areas in the central and northern part of the base area were filled with white smoke!

It was officers and soldiers burning down the summer food of the common people in the base area!

After the officers and soldiers were frustrated in attacking the defensive support point of Tianbing, they focused on destroying the houses of the people in the base area and destroying the grain in the base area.

They will rush to collect the ripe summer grain, but those that can't will be burned down.

When officers and soldiers first adopted this strategy, they all used small teams as their units of action, with about 120 people in each team.

From the point of view of the leaders in the military headquarters, there should not be much resistance to burning crops and houses. It is enough to take a small team as a unit.

However, after these teams started their operations, they were met with tenacious resistance from the common people! Many teams even fell into the encirclement of the common people, and were completely destroyed by the common people!

The military command immediately made a quick response, forbidding all departments to act alone with teams, instead of battalions!

There are only three ranks of officers and men. Below the supreme headquarters are divisions, and the commanders are Deputy generals. There is no uniform rule on the number of officers and men. There are hundreds of thousands, and there are more than 10000.

Below the division are the battalions, but the number of battalions is basically fixed, ranging from 2000 to 3000. There will not be much difference.

The common people in the base areas can still win against more than 100 officers and men by gathering together and relying on the large number of people and their familiarity with the terrain, but there is no possibility of victory against more than 2000 or 3000 people.

After the enemy changed his strategy, the field immediately informed the grass-roots militia and made it clear to the people that they should not act rashly. However, many people regard their homes and crops as more important than their lives!

When they saw that their homes were destroyed and their crops burned, they did not care about the persuasion of the militiamen. Even some militiamen who hated the officers and soldiers also worked with the people to fight against the enemy!

As a result, many people lost their lives!

Later, the militia headquarters issued death orders and made many promises that no one of the common people would starve to death. In fact, the common people knew that the heavenly soldiers were for their good, and finally no more common people came out to die in vain.

Now Liu Jiayi and others have changed again, dividing the four elite regiments of the reserve and Tianbing into two units, each of which has 4000 people. One is led by Deng Yuqi, and the other is under the direct command of Gu Tianxing, launching a Blitzkrieg against the destructive enemy!

If they get the information that the officers and soldiers are burning crops again, they will attack the officers and soldiers immediately!

The ordinary militia and ordinary people are not the opponents of officers and soldiers, but the elite regiment can kill each other with superior forces, and then retreat into the nearest market town or city as soon as possible to make a defensive posture. If the enemy can't get angry and starts to attack the city, the heavenly soldiers will rely on the fortifications that have been built for a long time and attack the officers and soldiers head on!

If the enemy dare not attack them, they will rest in the stronghold and prepare for the next attack. If the enemy besieges this stronghold, and then constantly mobilizes troops to increase the number of soldiers here, the heavenly soldiers can organize troops to fight and help along the way, and they can eat a little bit of food.

However, the officers and soldiers' headquarters responded very quickly. They found that their troops suffered losses everywhere, and they began to be led by the nose by the heavenly soldiers, so they changed their tactics again.

Their response is very simple, very rough, just one, once again!

Originally, two or three thousand officers and soldiers acted together. Now, seven or eight thousand officers and soldiers acted together! When one unit is attacked, other units will respond quickly and support with the fastest speed!

The elite regiments led by Deng Yuqi and Gu Tianxing only have more than 4000 people, and they can certainly win against more than 7000 officers and soldiers. However, it will take them a long time to eliminate the enemy, and the time to withdraw from the battle will also be extended. Often, before they leave the battle, the enemy's reinforcements arrive and beat them to the ground.

Tianbing also carefully selected the ambush sites many times to ambush officers and soldiers, but eight times out of ten the enemy was not fooled. Liu Jiayi and others can only lament why the officers and soldiers are so cunning.

In the past five days, both sides have paid a great price. More than 30000 officers and soldiers were killed and more than 15000 civilians were lost!

Later, Li Qingyu and Zhou Xianguang also learned about the situation in the rear area.

At this time, the front of the battle has also come to the most critical moment, the enemy's reinforcements have gradually come, the front-line forces are under increasing pressure, Li Qingyu this firefighter is busy every day!

Some fiery Li Qingyu directly contacted the joint headquarters of the reserve and the militia by radio and reprimanded Liu Jia and four people on the radio: "don't feel wronged. It's true that you are facing so many people now because you didn't guard the door well. But Lao Deng, Tianxing, what did you say at the mobilization meeting? Lao Deng, did you say that it's not too much to put in 800000, but you can put in 800000 again? Brag, brag, brag, brag! Now the people in the base areas have been killed in pieces. How can you explain to them? We agreed that we could protect them... "

Deng Yuqi and others did not feel aggrieved when they listened to Li Qingyu's rebuke in the radio.

They know Li Qingyu.

Although Li Qingyu is now the chief of staff of Tianbing, he has always regarded them as brothers. Now Li Qingyu even scolds them as if they are out of control, which just shows the cruelty of the external war!

It's said that sometimes when a battle comes down, a division will be lost!

Tianbing's organizational system is modern. The number of each division is not as large as that of a single division, but there are also 5000 or 6000 people! How many celestial soldiers are there? How long can it take to consume it like this?

Originally, after the establishment of the reserve service, it was for the purpose of replenishing the front-line field corps, but now the reserve service is not only unable to provide external support, but it is also in a mess!

If they can quickly kill these officers and soldiers who have entered the base area, they can let a little more people come in from the periphery, and the periphery will not fight so hard.

After the end of the call with Li Qingyu, although the four did not complain about Li Qingyu, nor did they complain about the field corps, they always felt a sense of suffocation in their hearts!

In particular, Deng Yuqi, the restless guy, would like to incarnate the ancient god and crush all the officers and soldiers!

At this time, someone came to the headquarters to report. Seventy miles away from them, they found that some officers and soldiers were snatching wheat from the common people. There were about 8000 people!

"Damn it Deng Yuqi scolded and walked outside the headquarters!

"Old Deng! What are you going to do? " Liu Jia roared.

"I'll get rid of all the rats who stole the food!" Deng Yuqi roared, and suddenly turned back to Danggu Tianxing and said, "don't move with me, old Gu. I'll clean up the other party myself. If things are not good, I can run right away! But together, we can't get off the road. We may be trapped by the enemy's reinforcements! Don't worry, I'll be fine! You wait for my good news

Deng Yuqi put down a word, no matter what other people say, running out!

"Old Deng! Wait a minute! Don't be impulsive The field gets up to chase, but is stopped by Liu Jiayi.

"Forget it, don't stop him. His head is clear. He should be OK. Let's take a look at the map and get ready to meet you! " Liu Jiayi said.
