"Going south, crossing the Mo River, using the river to stop the enemy's armored forces, then bypassing Durgapur and retreating westward."
Although Ranchi has no hope for this war, as the coach, he is still doing his essential work.
By now, he had no hope of counterattack or something, he just wanted to take these troops out.
He was satisfied to be able to bring out a hundred thousand people. He brought a hundred thousand troops back to Delhi, and he was able to hold a little bit of capital in the next negotiations.
In Ranchi's view, the Mughal Empire has no other way out except for the negotiation of surrender to Dahua.
If you continue to fight, you won't be able to win. The Mughal Empire's backwardness is all-round.
Even if a certain battle is won, the gap in strength between the two sides cannot be changed.
What's more, they are now unable to win even a battle.
Although, among the top Mughal strategists, a strategist proposed the concept of protracted warfare, suggesting that all regular troops should be dispersed to rural areas and mountainous areas throughout the country for guerrilla warfare.
Mainly harassing the Chinese army, intercepting taxes, and destroying infrastructure.
The use of guerrilla warfare to contain a large number of Dahua troops stationed in India increased the cost of Dahua's rule in India.
As long as it lasts for a few years, UOB's income in India will be far lower than its expenditure.
At that time, the Chinese army might abandon this place because of this.
If the Chinese army does not give up, they will choose to negotiate with Dahua, and they will have more negotiation capital. Maybe you only need to cut some places and add some indemnities to preserve the independence of the Mughal Empire.
This kind of strategic thinking is theoretically feasible.
After all, the Mughal Empire is huge, covering more than four to five million square kilometers. Dahua wants to stabilize every place and needs a massive army.
As far as Dahua’s 200,000 troops are currently in India, it is far from enough.
Not to mention two hundred thousand, even if it is a million army, it is almost like a pile of sand on the beach when it is scattered on this piece of land.
The money needed to feed one million troops overseas is incalculable.
If Dahua relies on cruel exploitation of the Indian people to feed those troops, it is in their arms.
It has aroused public grievances, and Dahua's rule in India has become more difficult.
Moreover, with too many troops deployed in India, the commander-in-chief may choose to be independent.
In short, as long as they carry out guerrilla warfare and protracted warfare, there are still many opportunities for them to turn defeat into victory.
However, in Ranchi's view, this kind of strategy is actually not feasible at all. It is completely divorced from reality. It is a kind of utopianism and the wishful thinking of the top Mughal leaders.
Because of this tactic, it is actually very dependent on ordinary people across the country.
Whether it's supplies, wounded, intelligence, and even concealment.
All these need the help of the people, so that the guerrillas can continue to fight the Chinese army.
But why do people help Indian soldiers?
Although Ranchi was not born at the bottom, he has worked at the grassroots level and also worked in society. He knows what kind of birds the soldiers of the Indian army look like, and he also knows the impression of the soldiers of the Indian people.
To describe it in two words, soldiers and bandits.
For the common people, Chinese soldiers are as scary as Indian soldiers, and even Chinese soldiers are slightly better, at least they have better discipline.
As long as the Indian army loses the powerful deterrence of the central government, these soldiers can immediately become demons and show their most terrifying scene.
When the time comes, the people will not report the whereabouts of the Indian army to the Chinese army, it is all thank God.
Counting on the people for help is a dream.
Ranchi felt that if this strategy were to be implemented, it would be highly likely that soldiers would go down to the countryside to burn, kill, and looting, and then find a place to fall into the grass and endanger one party.
Under the background of these corrupt and inhuman soldiers, the Chinese army will be more like a righteous division. Those people will definitely stand on the side of the Chinese army and welcome the king.
There are ordinary people who give the Chinese army an eyeliner, and guerrilla warfare is just a joke and it doesn't work.
What the Mughal Empire got at this time was not one disease, but many diseases at the same time. If you want to get back to health, it is so easy.
"It's not easy on Mohe. The enemy has a regiment stationed on the west bank, blocking the Mohe Bridge."
A subordinate reminded.
Blowing up the bridge can indeed effectively slow down the advance speed of the Chinese armored forces, but only if they can cross the Mo River.
The Chinese Army had long noticed the importance of the Mohe Bridge and deployed a regiment of troops on the west bank.
"Collect the ships, send a force to cross the river downstream, and then go around behind them. The frontal attack attracts their attention, and then the troops go around the back to launch a surprise attack to try to keep the bridge."
Ranchi was a little worried that the Chinese army would blow up the bridge when it couldn't keep it.
Mo River is not wide, only a dozen meters.
However, this width is enough to discourage the Indian army's heavy troops.
Only by relying on this bridge can the baggage be transported over.
"What if the Chinese army blows up the bridge?"
Someone asked this question.
"Then give up everything, and now that there is no sure way, it would be nice if people can go out."
Ranchi said.
There was a moment of silence when everyone heard the words. Those artillery and materials were their last property.
If it is lost, I don't know how long it will take to regain its vitality.
It can be said that if those weapons and equipment are lost, most of this unit will be abolished.
But what can we do if we don't discard it?
Anyway, they couldn't think of a better way.
Then, a sigh broke the silence.
Everyone no longer questioned, but chose to obey Ranchi's plan and arranged the attack on Mohe Bridge.
At the same time, the Chinese army is attacking the enemy in the encirclement.
Although the Indian Army was on the defensive side, it did not have any advantage, and it was losing ground.
At this time, the two sides began to compete for speed again. If the Indian army captured the Mohe Bridge before the Chinese army broke through their lines of defense and fled to the west of the Mohe River, there would be a greater chance to escape the encirclement.
However, if the Chinese army catches up with their main force, they have not won the Mohe Bridge, I am afraid that the entire army will be wiped out.
Fighting with the Chinese army is a very painful thing, and many generals feel this way.
When fighting the Chinese army, they must consider very well, not make mistakes, and do their best to barely maintain a balance of power. And once they make a little mistake, they will be wiped out.
But things on the battlefield are unpredictable, so how can it be possible that no accidents happen at all.
Sometimes, the emergence of a new weapon can catch them by surprise.
Other troops lost to the Chinese Army. The equipment gap was one reason. Another important reason was that they did not know enough about the Chinese Army, so they often misjudged them.
