Warlords: Conquer the world from the county magistrate
Chapter 79 Pursuit
At the Pingrong County Command Center, Tao Yunong hurried in: "Commander, the battle reports of each unit have been compiled."
"What are the casualties of the troops?" Fang Jian stood up and asked anxiously.
Tao Yunong reported: "The 4192st and 4765nd Divisions attacked Wang Rong's troops, killing enemies and capturing ."
"The 452st Regiment of the 216nd Division had 317 killed, the 985nd Regiment of the nd Division had killed, and the nd Regiment of the st Division had killed, for a total of killed."
"In this battle, we captured 8152 Daxin XI-type guns, 25 box guns, 57 2-caliber guns, 12 damaged guns, 54 damaged heavy machine guns, and 12 intact heavy machine guns."
"The Third Guard Regiment blocked Cao Bingshen in a battle, killing 1125 enemies, capturing 3117, and 18 people from the Third Guard Regiment were killed. 4152 old sleeves and 5 box guns were seized."
"The Guard Division attacked Liu Minggong and killed 2611 enemies and captured 4534. In this battle, 335 people were killed in the 15st Regiment of the 17st Division, people were killed in the st Guard Regiment, and people were killed in the rd Guard Regiment."
"In this battle, we captured 4514 Daxin XI-type guns, 2425 old sleeve guns, 18 box guns, and 14 damaged heavy machine guns."
"Zhang Guilin's troops who attacked the Second Guard Regiment have retreated. In this blocking battle, 514 people from the Second Guard Regiment were killed."
"The troops' training is still not enough." After listening to Tao Yunong's introduction, Fang Jian sighed.
Fang Jian understood that the troops of the 1st and 2nd Divisions had only undergone three months of training, so it was considered quite good to have such combat capability.
As for the loss of 500 people in the Second Guard Regiment, not to mention that the other side blocked the siege of 13,000 people with only 3,000 people and held their positions tightly without retreating, a large number of soldiers killed and wounded Zhang Guilin.
According to Tao Yunong's investigation, Zhang Guilin killed at least 3,000 people in this battle, and no less than 3,000 people were injured, both seriously and slightly.
Then, Fang Jian thought of something and instructed Tao Yunong: "We must urge the field hospital to do its best to treat the injured soldiers."
"Commander, the medicines collected before the war are not enough." Tao Yunong said cautiously with hesitation.
"Don't worry about the medicines. I'll take care of it. But you have to assign someone to supervise the field hospital and make sure the medicines are used on our soldiers."
Fang Jian was preparing to exchange a batch of medicines from the system. He was very generous to his wounded soldiers.
Fang Jian also asked about the whereabouts of Zhang Guilin and Cao Bingshen. Tao Yunong introduced: "Zhang Guilin has retreated to Nanyun, and Cao Bingshen has returned to Huaichong."
Fang Jian was somewhat surprised that the two men retreated to their own bases. Of course, Fang Jian was still very happy that these two troops did not participate in the battle of Nanling.
Although Cao Bingshen's troops were not very strong in combat, they still had more than 4,000 people.
Zhang Guilin's troops were different. They were very elite. If it was not the Second Guard Regiment defending their troops, but a regiment from the First or Second Division, their positions would have been breached by the enemy long ago.
After Tao Yunong left, Fang Jian communicated with the system and said, "System, exchange 10 points for various medicines to treat the wounded."
"Ding, the exchange is successful, 10 points will be deducted, and the item will be delivered in one day."
The items for exchange include gauze, cotton swabs, alcohol, analgesics, anti-inflammatory drugs, etc., a full range of medical supplies.
At the junction of Fengxian and Nanling, most of Ma Jincen's new military divisions were conscripted men, and they had not received much training, so their marching speed was very slow.
When the troops just entered Nanling, a soldier rode up to Ma Jincen and reported in a panic: "General, the enemy is chasing us."
"What?" Ma Jincen, who was riding on a horse, was startled when he heard this.
Now, besides a guard regiment dedicated to protecting his own safety, there was only a new military division left by Ma Jincen, as well as the remnants of Wang Rong and Liu Minggong. The soldier who was reporting on horseback also belonged to the guard regiment.
Xu Yunhua, who was beside Ma Jincen, rode closer on horseback and said, "General, don't hesitate, and return to Nanling as soon as possible."
"What about the troops?" Ma Jincen pretended to be hesitant.
Xu Yunhua sighed and said, "General, give the new military division to Wang Rong to lead, and have him stop the enemy. The rest of the people should retreat quickly."
"Alas, this is the only way. You go and make the arrangements. Tell Wang Rong that when he returns to Nanling, I will replenish his troops for him." Ma Jincen sighed in a fake manner.
Xu Yunhua rolled his eyes silently. You were the good guy, but you asked me to be the bad guy.
Wang Rong watched Xu Yunhua, who had delivered the mission, leave with a grim look on his face, and ordered the remaining troops, "Immediately take over the command of the new army and organize the defense."
"Division Commander, can we stop the enemy with just these few people?" A regiment commander under Wang Rong hesitated.
In this battle, the enemy had strong firepower and a large number of people, and our side was very frustrated. Now there are less than 2,000 elite soldiers left, how can we stop the enemy troops?
As for the more than 8,000 people in the new division, the regiment commander did not take them seriously at all.
Wang Rong waved his hand helplessly: "Go ahead and do it. You have to hold on here for at least one day."
Seeing Wang Rong's insistence, the regiment commander had no choice but to organize the troops.
While Wang Rong's troops were deploying their defenses, Ma Jincen, with his direct guard regiment and several hundred remnant troops of Liu Minggong, quickly fled to Nanling.
"Messenger, send the special forces battalion out to supervise the troops in building fortifications. Anyone who slacks off will be punished by military law." Wang Rong was furious when he saw the lazy way the new army troops were building fortifications.
"Da da da……"
Just as the messenger was about to turn around to deliver the message, gunshots were heard not far away.
An officer came over and reported: "Division Commander, a large enemy force is coming."
"Let our brothers be ready to provide support at any time." Wang Rong was helpless about the rapid march of Fang Jian'an's troops.
Wang Rong divided the four regiments of the new division and the division's direct troops into four parts. The first regiment with 1,500 people guarded the central position, and the second and third regiments each had 1,500 people guarding the two wings.
The remaining nearly 4,000 people and Wang Rong's 2,000 people formed the reserve team.
The first to arrive at the battlefield were Fang Weian's troops from the 1st Guard Regiment. After arriving, Fang Weian decisively launched an attack on Wang Rong's position.
He arranged a company on each wing to contain Wang Rong's wings, placed a battalion in the middle as the main attack, and the rest of the troops were also ready to attack at any time.
Originally, Fang Weian thought that the enemy had more people and would have a hard fight. However, soon after the troops launched the attack, the position in the middle was shaky and the cavalry on the opposite side was on the verge of collapse.
Seeing that the new army was ineffective, Wang Rong immediately sent his remaining elite troops to hold the central position.
Although the central position was held, the positions on both wings of Wang Rong's troops were defeated one after another. A regiment of 1,500 people was defeated when facing the enemy's 200 men.
"Okay, all troops, attack." Fang Weian shouted, and immediately ordered the remaining troops to launch a charge towards the enemy position.
Because of the rush of time, Wang Rong's troops had little cover. Under the charge of Fang Jian'an's 3,000 men, the new troops retreated in fear, causing Wang Rong's elite troops in the center to retreat as well.
The chief of staff came up to Wang Rong and said sadly, "Commander, retreat."
"Retreat." Seeing that the army's defeat was inevitable, Wang Rong had no choice but to order a retreat.
