Chapter 1251 Chapter 1252 The sudden change in the battle situation

The good news is not that there is no such thing. After several days of experiments and repeated confirmations, the commanders of the Qin State found a good way to temporarily crack the electronic interference of the Tang Army.

This method is to set up a wired communication network: yes, use the most traditional telephone lines to replace radio communications, so that a certain degree of communication can be maintained under the strong electronic interference of the Tang Empire.

It’s just that this method is more troublesome, requires a lot of wires, and takes time. But no matter what, at least the Qin army now has a way to restore its command and dispatch.

"The 3rd Armored Army is finished." The chief of staff who came back from the front line brought very bad news to Wang Luo.

 He took a sip of water, moistened his dry lips, and then continued: "The troops have suffered too many losses, too many commanders have been killed, and the entire army has lost its combat effectiveness."

"The situation of the 1st Armored Corps is not very optimistic either. They suffered heavy losses from air attacks, and many tanks were abandoned on the road due to lack of parts and fuel." When the chief of staff who personally went to the front line said these words, Wang Luo's face became very ugly.

The 1st and 3rd Armored Corps are the elite of the Qin State. The commanders and tank crews are all veterans of many battles. They are precious resources for the empire.

 But now, we don't even understand how the enemy surrounded us. These elite troops who were supposed to be the spearhead of the attack were lost inexplicably.

In fact, what Wang Luo didn't know was that many tank crew members on the front line were scared out of their wits by those ghost-like attacks.

 They refused to continue driving the tanks, so a large number of tanks were abandoned on the road. Later, the commanders discovered the problem and began to force the tank crews not to leave the tanks easily.

As a result, there are policies and countermeasures. These tank crews will abandon the vehicle as long as they encounter a slight malfunction. Later, it will directly develop to the point where they destroy the tank themselves to achieve the purpose of abandoning the vehicle.

There is no other way, who makes those terrifying planes of the Tang Empire only focus on tanks and armored vehicles? As long as they escape on foot, there is a high probability that they will not be attacked...

 After all, there are too many targets on the ground, and the Tang Empire cannot attack all the targets discovered even with all its strength. Therefore, the low-value infantry was let go, or most of them could only be let go.

The armored forces that abandoned their tanks had almost no combat effectiveness. Hundreds of tanks and armored vehicles of various types were abandoned on the battlefield. The scene was absolutely spectacular.

The infantry of the Tang Empire following the defeated Qin army would sometimes even be blocked by these equipment, and many times they even needed tow trucks to clear the way and move these **** debris to both sides of the roadbed.

Before the Qin army could recover from the chaos, Bolton, a famous general from the Tang Empire, entered Xiajuan City. Xiajuan City, which had become ruins in the battle against the Qin Army, had been bombed several times by the Tang Army, and it had long lost its former prosperity.

 When the tanks of the Tang Army arrived on the street of Xiajuan, the local Dahua people cheered warmly. Some people even took the initiative to send garlands to Tang Jun. The civilians here really regarded Tang Jun as their liberator.

And the Tang army was indeed much kinder than the Qin army. They entered the city with almost no resistance. This kind of occupation was obviously more acceptable than the Qin army's fierce attack. The troops commanded by General Burton on the southern line entered Xiajuan was just the beginning. The troops of the Tang Army in the north, commanded by General Strauss, cut off the Qin Army's railway line and fired a carbine eastward.

This almost swept away the Qin army's baggage that was behind the army. Strauss burned, killed and looted all the way, destroying all the Qin army's precious fuel, food, weapons and ammunition.

At this point, the Qin State's 750,000 North Road army, which was preparing to attack the Tang army's border city Hezhe along Xiajuan, was surrounded by the wilderness between Xiajuan and Hezhe, except for a few tens of thousands of people who retreated early.

 The 750,000-strong army was short of food, almost out of ammunition supplies, and had very little fuel left. The total strength of the Tang army around them exceeded 1 million!

Theoretically, the Qin Army in the encirclement has completely lost the possibility of breaking out, and their only hope is the Qin Army's Middle Route Army Reserve assembled near Dongqing City.

After learning the news that Wang Luo's army was surrounded, Ying Duo was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He shook himself. Prime Minister Ying Ke quickly helped Ying Duo with his hands and eyes, so that His Majesty the Emperor of Qin did not fall.

Yingduo, who was eager to rescue his main force, immediately mobilized his troops and generals after recovering slightly, and ordered the Ying'an army close to the front line to quickly formulate a plan to recapture the reins and rescue the more than 700,000 Qin troops in the encirclement.

Ying'an did not dare to neglect, and began to assemble troops on the second day after Xiajuan was unexpectedly lost. In fact, he no longer dared to expect to take back the reins and repel the Tang army. The plan he drew up was very realistic.

According to his plan, the main force of the Qin Army's Middle Route Army quickly maneuvered to the wild areas south of Xiajuan. While the Tang Army's foothold was not stable, it cooperated with the Qin Army inside and outside the encirclement circle to open a gap, allowing the Qin Army to break out and retreat back to Dongqing.

This plan seems to be very conservative. After all, the Qin Army has not yet had a good response to the Tang Army's set of strange tactics.

While gathering armored troops and some troops with high mobility and strong field capabilities, Ying'an also ordered traditional infantry who could not keep up with the assault force to build strong defenses in Dongqing.

 He knew that if he remained as careless as Xia Hao, Dongqing City would also be caught off guard. Only by following the most traditional methods and building a line of defense to stabilize the position can the Tang army, which has powerful weapons and equipment, be dragged into a slow offensive and defensive rhythm, and then find its flaws and win.

It's a pity that Ying'an here is still preparing to rescue Wang Luo, and another news over there is like a basin of cold water that suddenly woke up all the generals of the Qin State.

The army led by Field Marshal Tiger of the Tang Dynasty suddenly appeared on the outskirts of Shanchong, a strategic area of ​​​​the Qin Army. With a salvo of thousands of artillery pieces, he directly defeated the remaining Qin Army troops and occupied this key transportation hub in the mountains.

At this time, both Dongqing City in the north and Jutian in the south were directly exposed to the Tang army's front. The Qin army had to quickly invest more troops in the direction of Jutian in order to stabilize the situation. There has been a gap in the defense line.

 But no one expected that Marshal Tiger, who had always been steady, made a quick assault in Jutian! The Paratroopers of the Tang Dynasty were dispatched again, and it took two days and one night to cooperate with the Tang Army's armored troops to occupy Jutian!
