The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 2258: Went the wrong way

"The purpose of our main exercise is large-scale circuitous interspersion, which is mainly aimed at what happened on the battlefield of Liaodong. The intention of the General Staff is to allow our troops to successfully intersect behind the Goguryeo people." Bai Xi, Chief of Staff of the Cavalry Division, introduced.

"Yeah. It's just that, I don't know if our newly formed cavalry division can take on such a task all at once." Division Commander Meng Le said worriedly. His division was just established, and most of his men were recruits. Except for some backbone officers and non-commissioned officers who were transferred from the old army, most of them had no combat experience. For such a newly established combat unit, they were very good at fighting. Worry, because any mistake in the war will lead to unpredictable consequences.

"Sir, we shouldn't worry. This exercise will expose most of our problems so that we can solve these problems before the war comes." Lieutenant Colonel Mengwan said confidently.

"Yeah. Well, I hope to do what you said." Meng nodded. His 7th Fast Cavalry Division has three cavalry regiments under its jurisdiction, and each cavalry regiment has three battalions under its jurisdiction, using a three-three system. Each regiment only has a number ranging from 1,500 to 1,800. As a result, his division will have about 5,000 people, and with various auxiliary arms, there will be only about 7,000 people. The size of this organization is much smaller than that of the main division of the Qin Army. The standard strength of the main division of the Qin Army ranges from 15,000 to 17,000, and the size of a regiment exceeds 3,000. . Compared with the main force of the Qin Army, their organization is still a bit small. But Meng Liao also knew very well that this was the result of the intentional reduction of the establishment. The upper ranks of the Qin army did not want to see too many Huns, Hu people, and mountain people gather. After all, there were too many of them.

"How is the situation of our troops now?" Meng Li asked.

"Reporter, the temporary telegraph line has not been established, and the progress of our troops is not very clear." Meng Wan replied.

"Oh." Meng yelled, and then looked at the temporarily assembled sand table. The sand table looked very rough, which made me a little unpleasant, but his reconnaissance troops had already spent the most energy to get the results.

The purpose of the exercise is to see how well the newly formed cavalry units can intersperse. They need to advance one hundred and fifty to two hundred miles in one day. This advancing speed is very fast, and when the General Staff made its plan, it was required to be at this speed. For this, Meng Liao had a lot of criticism, because one hundred and fifty li to two hundred li, even though they are cavalry units, one day So much advancement inside can be considered very powerful. But such a long distance is prone to problems. Moreover, they were newly formed troops, and Meng Liao had no illusions about this result.

"Forget it. Let's wait and see, anyway, it's noon, and there is another afternoon. Maybe the temporary telegram will pass in the afternoon." Meng Li said while looking at the sand table.

In the mountainous area entering Liaodong, Newton's 34th Regiment also quickly passed through the area. The 34th Regiment is subordinate to the 7th Fast Cavalry Division. The 7th Fast Cavalry Division consists of the 33rd, 34th, and 35th Regiments. Their task is very simple, that is to move forward, move forward.

"Stop." Newton reined his horse to stop his command temporarily.

"It's the sir." The staff officers dismounted one after another, and the peripheral guard company quickly dispersed to take charge of its security work.

"How far have we advanced?" Newton asked his staff.

"Sir, we have already advanced a hundred miles. If we calculate at this speed, we can achieve the goal of interspersing one hundred and fifty miles before dark." The staff officer replied easily.

"Our goal is two hundred miles, not one hundred and fifty miles." Newton looked at the staff officer and said.

"Yes, sir." The staff officer saluted.

"Damn it. This is a battlefield, no salute is allowed." Newton said angrily.

"If the opponent has a sharpshooter, your regimental leader will be killed." Newton scolded angrily.

The staff officer was at a loss.

"Da da da da." A team of cavalry passed quickly. Newton was satisfied as he watched the team of cavalry pass quickly.

But at this moment, Newton saw a group of cavalry staying in place at a loss.

"Damn it. Go, call me the cavalry." Newton waved.

"Yes, sir." A corporal ran quickly.

Soon several cavalrymen were brought over.

"Which unit are you from?" Newton immediately asked such a question, but he soon discovered the result he wanted to know. The soldier's collar clearly read the Arabic numerals, thirty-six regiment. In order to effectively control the soldiers and let the soldiers find their own troops, the Qin army usually marked the numbers of their regiments on the soldiers' collars. In order to let them know where their group is.

"Thirty-Six Regiment. Officer." A second-class soldier replied blankly.

"Damn, according to the organization, you should belong to the 8th Cavalry Division. Your position should be in front of our Cavalry Division. You have to arrive half a day earlier than us. You actually fell behind us." Newton looked at the soldiers. Speaking of. The soldiers lowered their heads in fear.

"Sir, we don't know it ourselves, but we are looking for our troops. Sir." The second-class soldier continued.

"Okay. Your chief will teach you well, and you will follow our 34th regiment." Newton waved helplessly.

"Go eat," Newton said.

"Sir." A lieutenant came over, holding two boxes of cans in his hands.

"Go and check, send a platoon to contain our troops in the back, and see if any of our people are behind." Newton said.

"It's the sir." The lieutenant nodded and said.

"Damn it." Newton took the can.

And the first battalion of the 34th regiment at the front. They are the forefront troops of the whole regiment. They need to open the way for the whole group to advance.

"Damn, where did we go?" Bai Chen stopped and looked at the map in his hand. He constantly looked for reference objects on the map.

"Sir, it's not good." At this time, a lieutenant officer quickly ran over and said.

"What's the matter?" Bai Chen asked.

"Sir, we, maybe, maybe we went wrong," the lieutenant officer said.

"What?" Bai Chen looked at the lieutenant in surprise.

"The landmarks here do not match all the landmarks on the map. We may have entered another area." The lieutenant said immediately.
