In Seoul, after the arrival of the Chinese army, they had just put on a siege formation, and the Qing army who was in charge of the garrison broke up and fled directly.
Most of the remaining Eight Banners have fought against the Chinese Army and know how powerful the Chinese Army is.
Even if I have never played against the Chinese Army, at least I have heard of the prestige of the Chinese Army.
The Eight Banners soldiers who can live to the present are all people who combine cleverness and luck.
After seizing Seoul, the staff of the UOB Expeditionary Army was also thinking about the next move against the map.
The map they got was very crude, incomparable to Dahua's military map.
Not to mention detailed contours, some mountainous areas are not even marked with their size, and many places have no place names, not even mountain roads.
Looking at this map, Tang Guozhen and others all looked depressed.
From this map, there is not much useful information at all, and I don't even know how many escape routes the Qing army will have.
They found local North Koreans, but ordinary North Koreans only know the names of the surrounding places at most. As for wanting them to point them out on the map, those people are also at a loss.
For a while, Tang Guozhen and others felt like they had come to a barren zone, a primitive tribe.
"It's not easy, we are blind now, we don't even know where the Qing army is."
Xu Yuxian made a comment.
The goal of their action this time is still to eliminate the vital force of the Qing army. Only when the enemy's strength is eliminated can the enemy's strength be weakened.
As for the gains and losses of one city and one place, it is not important anymore.
Even if they regained all of North Korea, it would not do if they did not destroy the Qing army. The Qing army was too close and could kill again at any time.
It is impossible for them to stay here forever and consume them with the Qing army. It is also not suitable for going deep into the lair of the Qing army, the risk is too great.
"No way, the level of the North Korean map drawing is like this. Next, it is very important for us to explore the surrounding terrain and topography. If we don't know what we know, we can't make tactics."
Qian Sule said.
"I said, will everyone be too cautious. Although we are fighting away from home, we are not familiar with the place. However, the Qing army also fights away from home, and they are not familiar with the terrain.
At this point, we are not at a disadvantage, so there is no need to worry too much. The slightly dispersed forces filled the entire line of defense and did not give the Qing army a chance to slip away.
As long as the Qing army emerges, people from other places can provide support. As for worrying about being divided, surrounded and annihilated by the Qing army, it’s not that I despise them, they really don’t have the guts..."
Duan Qiming directly drew a line on the map, meaning that part of the troops should be deployed at intervals on this line to take care of the entire line of defense.
In this way, the enemy has no chance of slipping away.
However, because of the long battle lines, they will continue to arrange this, and the number of soldiers in charge of garrisoning in each section will not be much.
The forces are too scattered, and it is easy to be broken by each.
In short, this idea has pros and cons.
If the support between each other is fast enough, there is hope that the Qing army will be held back.
"You can give it a try. It just happens that the weapons we currently use are also suitable for small-scale operations. Using the Qing army's ignorance of our new weapons, maybe we can hit the enemy again."
Tang Guozhen thought for a while, and finally finalized the plan.
After detailed argumentation, the Chinese army left 3,000 people to garrison Seoul, and then about 28,000 people were left divided into 60 sections, basically each section was a battalion.
There are two to three battalions in the key areas, and these sixty units are distributed to the defense line of about three hundred miles.
In theory, on average, there will be a battalion of troops stationed every five miles, which seems too sparse.
But in fact, some places cannot pass and do not need defense.
Therefore, there are sixty units, which is almost enough to keep an eye on all the retreat routes of the Qing army.
Before the army set off, they tried their best to bring more than a hundred locals who could communicate with and were familiar with the terrain.
Not familiar with the terrain is indeed a big problem.
They followed the line drawn on the map from southwest to northeast, leaving one or two battalions behind every time they reached a place that needed to be defended.
Then, the others move on.
As we go all the way, the team gets smaller and smaller.
Until the northernmost sea, there was only one battalion left in the team.
At this point, their line of defense was properly arranged, and they waited for the Qing army to return.
They didn't wait long, because the Qing army was always on the way back when they laid the defense line.
At this time, the spies of their forward troops had discovered the position of the Chinese army.
Later, they quickly returned to report the situation.
"What, the Chinese army has also deployed a line of defense on this mountain road? Damn it."
Striker Mondal said bitterly.
"The enemy has only more than 300 people, we simply surround them and destroy them."
A minister said.
"Do you have any brains? Can you guarantee that everyone will be wiped out, and none of them will be let go? As long as one escapes to report the letter, they will know the movements of our army and will gather here. At that time, they want to escape. It’s not that easy."
Mondal scolded.
"Then what shall we do?"
The subordinate continued to ask.
You can't even destroy the enemy, it's really too difficult.
Mondal can be a striker and he still has some brains.
On the one hand, he sent people back to report to Dorgon, and on the other hand, he sent spies to find a way around.
His principle is to avoid contact with the Chinese army as much as possible and not to expose one's whereabouts.
The spies from the Qing army were thrown out, but, as time went by, the intelligence that the spies found out made Mondal's back chill.
An enemy army was found on the hillside at the left intersection, and a Chinese army was stationed on a small road six miles away on the right. Eleven miles away on the right, there is another army...
Mondal had vaguely guessed the plan of the Chinese army.
With more and more information gathered, his conjectures are constantly being confirmed.
"These people are determined to block our way back. They are really vicious."
Mondal scolded.
Nowadays, the generals of the Qing army like to scold that the Chinese army is very vicious, making it the same as the Chinese army should let them.
Coincidentally, Daming's army also commented on the Eight Banners soldiers in the past.
If you can't defeat your opponent in strength, you will find a way to point to the opponent morally.
"Master Belle, what shall we do?"
The subordinate asked.
"I don't know, pass the situation to the top and let them make a decision. I guess that the top may concentrate their forces and then make a breakthrough from a certain place."
This was the only way Mondal could think of.
