Gao Wu: Starting from Awakening the Bloodline of the Demon King
Chapter 140 Father and Son Soldiers
This guy is Guo Huai'an's political enemy, and he usually has the worst relationship with Guo Huai'an. After Guo Huai'an was suspended due to illness, he succeeded him as the division commander as he wished, and he has been really prestigious for a long time.
Guo Zhiyuan, the captain of the Thunder Brigade, was demoted to the squadron leader for some reason.
If the Thunder Brigade had not been the sword that Du Si had built his career in, often going to dangerous places to put out fires and fight life-or-death battles with demons, and all the superiors and subordinates of Du Si needed their military exploits to show their face, this army founded by Guo Huai'an would have been disbanded by Du Si long ago.
If it is not disbanded, the military positions will be taken over by the children of official families.
A few days ago, the various departments of the Du Division were not in a good position to fight, and the front line retreated again and again, which aroused the anger of the provincial council and issued documents to question the commander. The Du Division Commander was under great pressure, so he passed the pressure on to the division commanders below, and ordered Division Commander Huang to go to the front line. Take command and stop the army from retreating.
When he received the order, Mr. Huang was so frightened that his legs trembled.
He came to visit the capital commander with generous gifts. As a result, the capital commander, who was usually extremely kind and dependent on him and often had fun with him, suddenly became selfless and ruthless.
The commander-in-chief not only threw his generous gift out of the house, but also threatened him viciously, saying that if he failed in battle again, he would be court-martialed!
Commander Huang didn't dare to really sit on the front line and command, but he also didn't dare to disobey the commander's military orders. He could only go to the front line to inspect, to show his presence, and then come back after a walk around, so that he could fool the superiors.
In order to ensure his own safety, Master Huang not only brought a large group of strong guards to protect him, but also spent a lot of money to hire warrior-level strong men in Jizhou City for personal protection.
He thought everything was safe, but as soon as he reached the front line with his front foot, the notorious and elusive "Sword of Dawn" came to kill him with his rear foot!
After just a few encounters, Mr. Huang's guards were killed and his head was taken away.
From the time the "Sword of Dawn" appeared until the opponent left with the heads of Master Huang and the warrior-level warrior, it only took a few minutes, and many people didn't react.
Then the demon troops launched a large-scale attack, and the local defenders collapsed at the first touch.
"Teacher, what should we do next?" Guo Zhiyuan put away his thoughts.
The first military order issued by Officer Guo Huai'an after taking office was for him to return to the position of captain, which showed that the other party would use him soon.
Guo Huaian did not answer immediately. He seemed to be still thinking about what unsolved problems he had. He pointed at the three-dimensional holographic image and said:
"Up to now, the troops of both sides have been fully deployed, and there are people and horses confronting and fighting everywhere. There are not so many loopholes for us to exploit on the frontier battlefield.
“If we want to stabilize the situation, we can only rebuild the defense lines on the left and right wings.
"The troops I have are stretched thin and I cannot launch a strong counterattack. The only weapon I can still use is the Thunder Brigade."
Hearing this, Guo Zhiyuan puffed up his chest.
The Thunder Brigade is a sharp knife, and good steel should be used on the blade. When the main force needs them, they go deep into the most dangerous areas, perform the most difficult tasks, and defeat the strongest enemies!
Guo Huaian continued: "The problem now is that I don't have much time.
"If we can't make a breakthrough before noon tomorrow, once the demons know that I'm back, they will definitely adjust their tactics and be on strict guard. It will be difficult to build anything by then.
"So, you only have one chance to attack."
Guo Zhiyuan understood what Guo Huaian meant.
The other party has been fighting demons in the Land of Chaos for more than ten years, and they are old acquaintances. Guo Huaian knows the other party, and the other party also knows him. He knows his strength and style, and is familiar with his tactics. When facing him, , tactics and tactics will be adjusted accordingly.
In short, if Guo Huai'an had not been suspended, then the demon's tactics in this battle would never have been the same as before. With Guo Huaian leading a division in front, the demon was so frustrated that he dared to advance wildly.
It was precisely because of Guo Huaian's absence that the demon knew that the other generals were mediocre and could not stop him or cause him big trouble in a hurry, so he dared to adopt a full-scale attack strategy.
What they seek is to defeat the capital in a short period of time and push the battle line right under Jizhou City's nose, thereby triggering chaos among the Lingdong provincial authorities and forcing the latter to reveal even greater flaws.
The demons knew that Guo Huaian would definitely take over the task at the critical moment, and what they wanted was to achieve as great a result as possible before then.
In this way, even if Guo Huai'an succeeds the former enemy commander and has the maimed Dusi army in his hands, he will not be able to take away the results they have achieved if the demon adjusts his tactics in time and switches from offense to defense.
As long as the results of the battle can be maintained, it will be much easier to attack the nearby Jizhou City when the main army crosses the Changling Mountains and rushes in.
In other words, when Guo Huai'an comes back, the demon will start to guard against it.
Guo Zhiyuan knew very well that the demon's intelligence work had always been very good, otherwise it would not have achieved a complete victory as soon as the war started.
Previous battles have shown that the demons are well aware of the military strength in various cities and places, and their formations are very targeted, and they can always defeat their own side with just the right amount of troops.
The opponent can always use tactics such as vertical and horizontal penetration, roundabout outflanking, etc. to quickly expand the results of the battle in a certain area, divide, surround, and gather together to destroy the capital's army.
Sometimes they accurately block the attack, sometimes they encircle a point to bring reinforcements, sometimes they cooperate with the inside and outside, and sometimes they pretend to be broken troops to deceive the defense line.
When the garrison of the capital somewhere thought they were surrounded by the main force and requested support from their superiors, the actual demon attack was just a feint attack;
But when they thought they had encountered a small group of demon troops, they started to pursue them with great interest, but they were lured in by the enemy.
Field artillery that is urgently transported to towns is always robbed halfway, and some extraordinary people who convey urgent military information often disappear halfway.
The demons' tricks emerged one after another, and the war was in full swing. The garrison troops in various places were exhausted and were teased and dizzy.
Troops were lost one after another, towns and military camps were lost one after another.
Guo Zhiyuan had to admit that both the overall arrangement and the detailed arrangements of the Demon Commander this time were ingenious and ingenious, making people dizzy and unpredictable.
It is not that there are no smart people among the officers at the regiment headquarters, brigade headquarters, and division headquarters of Dusi. It is just that there are too few smart people or they are not smart enough to be able to influence the entire situation.
The higher-ups are good at taking bribes and bending the law, intrigues, and promotions. Their fighting skills are not lacking, but they are just average. They can handle ordinary battle situations, but they are very unsatisfactory when encountering an opponent like the Demon Commander.
According to the latest intelligence from the authorities, the commander of the demon army this time is a holy envoy who came specially from the north!
That person was stunningly talented and knowledgeable, and it was she who brought the Sword of Dawn.
At this moment, only Guo Huai'an in the entire Dusi can compete with the opponent.
Since the demon's intelligence work is so good and Guo Huaian is a crucial figure, his movements must be closely monitored.
Even if Guo Huaian set up a trap when he left Jizhou City and paid special attention to hiding his whereabouts along the way, the news of his return to the front line could not be hidden for long.
Guo Zhiyuan heard Guo Huai'an's words clearly and understood what the other party meant: The Thunder team only had one chance to take action, but the defense lines that needed to be rebuilt were on the left and right wings.
There are not enough troops.
"Let's just choose a target. As long as the operation is successful, at least one side of the defense line can be rebuilt and part of the situation reversed." Guo Zhiyuan gave advice.
Guo Huai'an shook his head: "The Thunder Brigade is a battle force on the surface. It is impossible for the demon troops to be on guard. No matter which side you go to fight, the other side will respond in time and dispatch troops to deal with it.
"Originally, in this situation, the other side would not have enough strength to defend and fight, but my men do not have such strength."
Guo Zhiyuan was speechless for a moment.
He thought for a while: "Why not let the social sects help? We will fight on one side and let them fight on the other side."
Guo Huai'an looked at him with complicated meaning: "Did you forget that the other party still has the 'Sword of Dawn' in his hand?
"The social sects that are qualified for this task must be four-star at least, and the sects that can become four-stars have considerable backgrounds and good channels in the government, and they must be aware of the existence of the 'Sword of Dawn'.
"The 'Sword of Dawn' has just killed Master Huang, showing its strong combat power, and its intention to intimidate us is obvious. At this time, which master from a large sect dares to go out and get into trouble?"
Guo Zhiyuan was speechless.
The Sword of Dawn and the masters of the social sect have reached a vague balance. The latter dare not move at all, for fear of being killed by these elusive guys.
Even Guo Huaian himself had to be prepared for the sudden attack of the Sword of Dawn.
If he doesn't want to make the same mistake as Mr. Huang, he must either keep changing his position to avoid being targeted by the opponent, or he must provide strong protection from the Jizhou City authorities.
In order for the Thunder Brigade to be able to dispatch, they must rely on the experts and strongmen from the Lingdong Provincial Government to check and balance the Sword of Dawn, otherwise they may fall into death as soon as they arrive on the battlefield.
The strength of small sects below four stars is limited. Without real masters, even several sects combined cannot be qualified for this task.
Moreover, several sects are gathered together, and there is a lot of movement. It takes time to organize it. With the demon's all-pervasive intelligence capabilities, it is likely to be detected in time, so as to deduce more information and respond.
"According to what the teacher said, wouldn't there be no way for us to break the situation?" Guo Zhiyuan was at his wits' end.
If Guo Huai'an wants to break the situation, he must rebuild the defense lines on the left and right wings, and cannot allow the demon troops to switch from offense to defense in an orderly manner in their current state.
Only by breaking the opponent's existing order in the war zone, rebuilding the defense line at the gap in the war zone, and reproducing the threat of a two-wing pincer offensive, can Guo Huaian force the demon troops to become unstable, seize the initiative back in his hands, and create conditions and opportunities for future actions. .
"It's very difficult, so I asked you to come and discuss it." Guo Huaian's eyes were meaningful.
When Guo Zhiyuan came into contact with the other party's gaze, his heart moved.
He had already understood what the other party meant.
Normally they wouldn't be able to break through.
If you want to break the situation, you can only take risks, risk your life, and fight to the death.
There are three squadrons in the Thunder Brigade. The first squadron is composed of low-level soldiers, basically young people. They belong to the reserve force and are in the training period. They have the largest number;
The second squadron is an intermediate combatant and is the main force in all previous operations, with the second largest number;
The third squadron is a high-level soldier and the backbone of the team. Each one is extremely valuable, and there are not many people in total.
The Thunder Brigade has been established for more than ten years. It has been able to achieve repeated military exploits and has not been seriously damaged in various dangers because they never go out in full force.
The difficulty is low, and the school officers will lead the first squadron to practice in battle;
For moderate difficulty, go to the second squadron;
For difficult tasks, the Third Squadron will send part of the force to lead the Second Squadron based on the actual situation. The upper limit is half of the dispatch for a single mission.
There is always a risk of failure in a mission, and the worst case scenario is the complete annihilation of the entire army. If the Thunder Brigade wants to continue to exist and eliminate demons for a long time, it cannot cut off its mainstay.
But this time is different.
"Before the demon knows that I'm here, I will go out personally this time. The Thunder Brigade will come out in full force. You and I will each lead half of the troops and attack both sides at the same time!" Guo Huaian's eyes were firm and there was no room for doubt.
Guo Zhiyuan only felt that his hands and feet were stiff and his whole body was cold:
"Division...Commander, even if our whole team attacks, divided into two parts, our combat power will be limited. Moreover, this operation is already an arduous task, with almost a narrow escape. The first squadron is just a group of children. You let them all go out." .......
"Division... Commander, you can't go, and all the brigade can't participate in the battle!
"For more than ten years, we have experienced countless swords, mountains and seas of fire. We always go wherever the danger is most. Many brothers can't even find their bodies, but we have never complained...
"Teacher, you have to leave some seeds for us!"
At the end of the speech, Guo Zhiyuan's shoulders were shaking, his eyes were red, tears were gathering in his eyes, and his voice became trembling.
Guo Huaian closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He was unwilling and did not dare to face this iron-blooded subordinate who crawled out from the pile of dead people.
But soon, he opened his eyes again, looked directly at the other person resolutely, and said every word:
"It is the bounden duty of soldiers to protect our country and our country. The situation is extremely dangerous. If you and I don't die, should we let the ordinary citizens behind us die?"
"The Thunder Brigade is a sharp weapon, and sharp weapons should be used at times like this. Death on the battlefield is your duty, how can you look forward and backward!"
"dad!"
"Guo Zhiyuan! Execute the order!"
Guo Zhiyuan, the captain of the Thunder Brigade, was demoted to the squadron leader for some reason.
If the Thunder Brigade had not been the sword that Du Si had built his career in, often going to dangerous places to put out fires and fight life-or-death battles with demons, and all the superiors and subordinates of Du Si needed their military exploits to show their face, this army founded by Guo Huai'an would have been disbanded by Du Si long ago.
If it is not disbanded, the military positions will be taken over by the children of official families.

Take command and stop the army from retreating.

The commander-in-chief not only threw his generous gift out of the house, but also threatened him viciously, saying that if he failed in battle again, he would be court-martialed!
