"After attacking so many times, we still haven't captured that high ground?" At this time, a brigadier general asked.

"Sir, you've seen it too. That 223 Hill is particularly difficult to defeat. The Qi army is extremely well-defended. They fight us with all their might. Such a battle can only be won by losing one's life. We simply can't believe it.

They will do this." A lieutenant colonel explained bitterly at this time.

All the officers present were silent at this time. They may have understood what kind of war they would face. Although the Qi army was in a tired state, the Zhao army was not much better. However, the battle of the Qi army

The will is still there. This may be the so-called morale. The Qi people's fighting spirit to dare to die makes Zhao Jun feel very troublesome. Facing such an opponent, they themselves don't know what to do?

Just when Zhao Jun didn't know how to deal with the enemy in front of him, Qi Jun was seizing the time to assemble their troops.

"These are the private soldiers of our Tian family. Although the number is only more than 500." At this time, Tian Heng stood on a high platform and looked at the assembled private guards. These guards were all elite troops. They were equipped with the latest equipment.

Advanced weapons. Rifles without magazines, pistols capable of firing continuously, and grenades imported from Qin's secret channels. As well as their own made explosive packets. These explosive packets use detonator ignition. This method is safer and more reliable.

This is a truly elite force with a very tenacious will to fight. The Qi Army has the habit of establishing small units for assault operations. Tian Heng’s elite force is equivalent to the Qi Army’s organic special operations force. Compared with other armies

.This point is considered advanced. Although

The Qin State has elite soldiers, but it does not have an organized special operations unit. Not only that, it does not have special weapons and equipment for an elite unit. In terms of use, the Qin Army does not have such special combat cases. In short,

The Qin army lags behind the Qi army in this aspect.

"These five hundred people, plus two thousand-man troops, are enough." A counselor on the side said.

"That's enough." Tian Heng said at this time.

The more than 500 people immediately marched to a flat land twenty miles east of Yantou. The terrain there was flat. Both the Qi army and the Zhao army built a certain number of trenches for defense. But strangely, both sides

There was no attack from there. The Qi army was unable to launch an attack at first.

However, the Zhao army was thinking inertia. They believed that they should occupy the commanding heights first. Because the existence of the commanding heights was very important for the use of their artillery. Therefore, they believed that they should first occupy the 223 heights, which they called Yan in the Qi army.

The high ground of the mountain.

Therefore, they simply ignored the strategy of bypassing this mountain from the beginning.

However, Qi Jun noticed this first. Tian Heng believed that if he wanted to resolve the current pressure, he must take action. He could not defend this high ground. The pressure on Zhao Jun was very high. If he just defended it, sooner or later he would not be able to hold it.

Therefore, he advocated launching an attack. But the location of the attack was chosen. He took a fancy to the place 20 miles east of Yantou Mountain. This place was a weak defense place for both sides, because it was basically out of the war zone. And

Neither side has many troops hoarded here.

The most important thing is that this is flat ground. As long as you break through and quickly move back along the flat ground, you can attack Zhao Jun's rear. Zhao Jun's rear is tight and will inevitably retreat. At this time, Qi Jun is taking advantage of the situation to propose peace talks, and both sides will inevitably

can reach agreement.

This is what Tian Heng thinks. It is also the goal that Qi Jun wants to achieve most at present. Whether this goal can be achieved depends on whether he can be in a favorable position in the next battle, because with a favorable bargaining chip, this

If you take the initiative to initiate peace talks, you will obviously have a higher chance of success.

However, Tian Heng's idea was also taken into consideration by Zhao Jun's generals at this time.

"Since we can't take Hill 223, why don't we choose another direction to attack?" the major general asked after checking all the battle reports.

At this time, all the staff officers were so surprised by this amazing proposal that they looked at each other. Obviously, they themselves had not thought about it this way.

The effect of capturing the commanding heights is really too strong. However, with the application of some new technologies, such as hot air balloons, and the increase in the power of artillery, especially the use of fixed artillery shells, the commanding heights are no longer as powerful as before.

dependence, but now, they have not broken this thinking pattern. Instead, they are thinking along their pattern.

"Sir, without artillery cover, I think it will be very difficult for the infantry to attack on flat ground." At this time, a lieutenant colonel expressed his opinion.

"Besides, we don't have extra troops." Another major put forward his opinion in time.

After many attacks, the Zhao army suffered a very large loss of personnel. The offensive operations during this period were very unfavorable, because with the upgrade of weapons, it became increasingly unfavorable to the offensive side. As long as the defensive side uses a favorable offensive,

In the case of equal weapons, it is difficult for the attacking side to gain a big advantage. Moreover, the organization of this period also presents a very big problem. Infantry occupies a considerable proportion of the entire army. This proportion is

Later data research put it at 75%.

The proportion of infantry is very serious. On the contrary, artillery, engineers, and communications troops occupy a smaller number in the entire proportion. The proportion of cavalry is also relatively high. And the cavalry will be more important in future battles.

, increasingly inferior to infantry. Just like in World War I, they will be reduced to artillery cooking.

It is precisely for this reason that the over-single type of arms has resulted in high casualties. Moreover, the advancement of weapons, especially the construction of trenches, is beneficial to the defensive side, while the offensive side is difficult to occupy without the support of other arms.

The opponent has a favorable base.

"I thought about this. However, we have to consider another factor. This factor is that we want to end the war as soon as possible, so time, time becomes very important. We did not consider it. And the other party did not consider it either.

." The major general said this time.

"The enemy's preparations are also insufficient, which causes us to be very sudden in the battle. With the help of suddenness, we can directly catch the opponent by surprise." The major general continued.

"The entire defensive front of the Qi Army is very large. As long as we concentrate our forces to attack the opponent at one point, we can have an absolute advantage, and then use this advantage to expand the results. Then, we can put the Qi Army in a disadvantageous position

, This is very beneficial to our next step in peace talks. In this way, we can gain the initiative." The major general said confidently.

"So, general, where do you think our attack point should be? Where are our troops?" At this time, an injured lieutenant colonel asked. He led his army through several attacks, but was defeated by the Qi army.

retreated. He was eager to attack his opponent.

"This, direction, I think we should attack here." At this time, the major general pointed the target in the direction of Tian Heng's attack. Both families chose this place that was easy to attack. But at this time, they did not expect that their

The armies will collide together.

"As for the strength of the troops, we will draw two infantry regiments from China, or one infantry regiment and one infantry battalion from other places to participate. I believe these troops are enough." The major general said at this time.

"I have already sent a telegram to the country. I believe that the train will transport these personnel. Moreover, we still have a battalion of reserve troops that are not used. At this time, I think it is time to use it." The major general said at this time.

At this time, all the officers present did not know what to say. They themselves did not know what to say. They believed that this plan was feasible. But they themselves did not know what the result would be.

"General, do we really want to negotiate peace with Qi?" At this time, Li Zuoche asked Li Mu.

"Yes. Peace talks are necessary. The war can no longer be fought. The Qin family has affected Zhao, South Korea, and Yan. The situation is not that bad now. Our military expenditures come from Qin, and Qin's loans stop, our war will

It has to stop. There is internal chaos in the Qin State, which will naturally affect our Zhao State. The war must stop." Li Mu said firmly.

"But, we still have hope of winning." At this time, Li said from the car.

"War is not about winning. It is about survival." Li Mu said at this time.

"Qi State has been fighting a war for more than two years. They can no longer continue. And the same is true for our Zhao State. The situation is even worse than Qi State. If this continues, both families will be defeated miserably. The current biggest enemy is Qin

There is civil strife in the Qin State. It is a great opportunity for us to take this opportunity to recuperate. A long-term war will bring down any powerful country." Li Mu said at this time.

"Well." Li Zuoche seemed to understand something at this time. War is a continuation of politics. Now the war has brought the two countries to the point of depletion. Neither country can afford the huge war expenses. Therefore, war

It's time to stop.

It’s not just the Zhao State. The same is true for the Yan State. At this time, South Korea has quietly withdrawn all their troops, and they have no interest in this war. The Yan State’s army has also been consumed too much.

And proactively stopped the pace of advancement. For them, recovering the country is a huge loss-making business that consumes strength.
