Chapter 307 Jiang Wei’s defense of Hanzhong, will the Southern Song Dynasty also use the support point tactics?

Outside the sky.

For the first time, the ancients understood the point defense tactics of later generations.

Then they used the ancient defensive tactics they had mastered.

comparing.

In fact, it can be seen that the principle of this defense mode is not complicated.

That is to disperse the soldiers into several small defensive strongholds, so as to expand the defense area.

Limit the enemy's large forces' space for movement.

And make it impossible for the enemy to achieve success in a single offensive battle.

Every offensive step must be paid for with blood.

Three Kingdoms.

Jiang Wei saw the tactical diagram of the support points given on the sky curtain.

I couldn't help but think of the Hanzhong area where I run my business.

According to the current defense plan of Shu Han.

In the Hanzhong area that defended against the attacks of Cao Wei, there were important defense strongholds such as Hancheng, Lecheng, Huangjin, Xingshi and Yangpingguan.

These defensive strongholds are guarded by solid city defenses and elite veteran soldiers.

To a certain extent, it can also be regarded as a support point for Hanzhong's defense.

As long as these support points are there.

Hanzhong would not have fallen.

And the Cao Wei army was unable to threaten the heartland of Shu Han.

But Jiang Wei also saw it very clearly.

Hanzhong has these support points based on cities.

It is fundamentally different from the support points of the German army during World War II.

Jiang Wei shook his head, wondering what he could learn from the support point tactics?
……

And the Southern Song Dynasty.

At this time, Meng Gong was also looking at the sky seriously.

With the help of the schematic diagram provided by Tianmu, he thought about the application mode of the support point tactics in the Song Dynasty, which was in urgent need of defensive capabilities.

Meng Gong was still thinking.

Liu Zheng, a subordinate standing by, said excitedly:
"Great! This support point tactic is really great!"

"And I think that our Song Dynasty can completely emulate the support point tactics."

"The Mongolian Tartars only knew how to plunder, not how to produce economics. They relied entirely on robbing after winning the battle."

"And facing the iron-blooded defense of the Song Dynasty, they simply cannot win."

"The Mongolian army marched south with heavy troops, and the daily expenditure was huge."

"Plus, I know that there are many warlords in the Mongolian grasslands."

"No one dares to fight the Song Dynasty to the death and exhaust all its military forces."

"We just need to follow the example of Model of later German times."

"In our Song Dynasty, we will also build at least 100 defense support points."

"In this way, even if the Mongolian army really puts all its efforts into attacking the Song Dynasty's defense line, it will pay a heavy price."

"They spent several years trying to defeat themselves."

"Indeed, a large number of small strongholds have been built with strong defensive fortresses."

“It may cost a lot of money.”

"These defense support points alone will require tens of thousands of soldiers."

“But as long as these support points can be formed.”

"No matter how strong the Mongolian army is, they will be beaten to a pulp by the iron-blooded defense of the Song Dynasty!"

As Liu Zheng, who led his troops from the northern region to defect to the Southern Song Dynasty, he always wanted to make his presence felt and achieve some merits.

So Liu Zheng actively put forward suggestions.

I want to enhance my presence.

If in the future, the Song Dynasty really uses the support point tactics for defense.

It can also be said that it was Liu Zheng who first proposed it.

The suggestion proposed by Liu Zheng sounds very good.

If it is really implemented.

It can indeed effectively prevent the invasion of the Mongolian army.

If we really follow Liu Zheng’s suggestion and create 100 or even thousands of field defense support points.

If Mongolia really wanted to conquer the Song Dynasty, it would be impossible without paying the price of more than hundreds of thousands of people.

Even an empire as powerful as the Mongol Empire.

Do we really want to let it harm 200,000 or 300,000 people?
Can't bear it!

But Liu Zheng's boss Meng Gong just smiled after hearing Liu Zheng's suggestion.

Then he sighed helplessly and said:

"If we can really achieve a defensive support point, that would be really great."

"But unfortunately the Song Dynasty cannot do that now."

"Not only the current Song Dynasty cannot do it."

"I can be sure that any country, even the extremely powerful Mongolian army."

“I can’t do that.”

Meng Gong pointed at the image of the German army that appeared on the sky and asked Liu Zheng:
"In your opinion, what is the military discipline and fighting spirit of the German troops on the sky?"

"What is the control that the German Fuhrer has over the army?"

Liu Zheng has been looking at the sky curtain since it appeared.

Watched a lot of WWII content.

Naturally, I can give a basic answer.

Liu Zheng replied: "The German army of later generations had a very strong fighting spirit."

"I don't know what their external military discipline is like, but at least their internal military discipline is very strict."

“The compliance with the orders was also very good.”

"Commanders at the front will complain and resist orders from the rear."

"But they will do everything they can to get the job done."

"Don't look at the Soviet army on the other side. In order to defend their country, they seem to be able to fight to the last drop of blood."

"But in Stalingrad, the German army fought the Soviet army to the death."

"The madness of their will to fight."

"It should be no less than the Soviet soldiers who defended their country."

"And the fighting capacity of the German soldiers is also very strong."

“Let alone the blitzkrieg on Poland, the blitzkrieg on France and the first few months of Operation Barbarossa, which was a huge success.”

"Just look at the Battle of Crimea and the Battle of Stalingrad that Tianmu talked about before, these were tough battles."

"The Germans often inflicted casualties of more than 5 to 1."

"These are not something that can be achieved simply by the excellent commanders of the German army."

"It also has to be their grassroots soldiers. The overall combat effectiveness of the grassroots combat units is very outstanding."

"Only then can we achieve a high casualty ratio."

“Although I don’t like later generations of Germany very much.”

"But we have to admit that Germany during World War II was really strong."

"It is certain that the combat effectiveness of the German army of equal strength is far greater than that of the Soviet army."

Liu Zheng's understanding is also the common understanding of most ancient generals who watched the content of World War II through the sky screen.

Including Meng Gong himself.

In fact, I think so too.

Then Meng Gong said:

“Those are the support points on the front lines.”

"If the enemy attacks, they will be surrounded and lose contact with the outside world."

"The German army of later generations could communicate with the outside world even if they were surrounded."

"But we in the Song Dynasty can't do that."

"The German army of later generations had an extremely strong fighting spirit."

"Even in a disadvantageous situation, the integrity of the system can be maintained."

"The German army suffered a crushing defeat in Stalingrad, but they continued to fight even when they ran out of ammunition and reinforcements."

"Half a cake a day, but we can hold the city's defense line."

"The soldiers of the Song Dynasty were able to do this."

"Not many, I'm afraid."

"Besides, as the saying goes, there is courage in numbers."

"Many soldiers can fight to the death until the last moment if you ask them to follow the main force."

"But if you let them form a small force to fight and hold those places that seem impossible to hold."

"Once the enemy's large forces surround us, their morale will quickly collapse."

"But later armies, especially the German army, were different in that they had a strong fighting spirit."

"Even if they are split into several small units."

“Even if there are only a few people in a group, they can still hold on to a dilapidated building.”

"Thus completing the mission of serving as a defensive support point."

"The soldiers of our time are not on the same level as the soldiers of later generations."

"Do you think the soldiers of the Song Dynasty can do this?"
