Chapter 1748 The Cunning Taoist Priest

The news of the encirclement and suppression by the Central Asian coalition forces made everyone very nervous.

In this foreign land, one can imagine the pressure of fighting against an army far larger than oneself.

"This battle cannot be fought, we will lose but not win."

Maoshan Taoist Qingchenzi is firm.

He thought it would take a lot of talking, but he didn't expect everyone to agree.

Although Taoist priests are fanatical, they are not fools.

Zhang Yinghuai said: "Our strength, at full count, is only [-] people, and the rest can only be regarded as mobs. It is really unwise to fight the enemy here."

Now that everyone agrees, the Taoist Volunteer Army will not be in danger.

Anyway, the biggest purpose of their coming here is to support Wang Changyue and others.

Having already attracted the Central Asian coalition forces, Wang Changyue and others should be out of danger, so there is no need to fight hard against the Central Asian coalition forces.

With Zhang Yinghuai's order, the Taoist volunteers spread their legs and retreated eastward.

This time the Central Asian coalition forces were furious.

Come all come, hit and don't fight, why?

But they also know that the Taoist Volunteer Army is like brown sugar, if it is not completely wiped out, there will be no peace in the future.

Forced to do nothing, the Central Asian coalition forces had no choice but to pursue.

"There are so many enemy cavalry, it is absolutely impossible to run like this. My suggestion is to divide the troops on the spot, fight guerrillas everywhere, and delay the time as much as possible."

Everyone knows that the National Defense Forces are right behind, and they might arrive when they arrive.

And when the Wehrmacht arrived, the situation turned around.

Although the Taoist volunteer army is not strong in combat effectiveness, they can still make trouble.

After careful consideration, Zhang Yinghuai divided the army into several groups, and each withdrew in one direction.

But he kept an eye out, the core Taoist priests did not separate.

These are all trained and capable forces, and they can control advanced weapons, which is the most powerful force.

With such a powerful force in hand, it can give the Central Asian coalition forces a ruthless blow from time to time.

The pattern of warfare has completely changed.

The Taoist volunteer army began to blossom and bear fruit in every corner of Central Asia, attacking pagans while preaching and winning believers.

The Central Asian Allied Forces saw the flames of war everywhere, so they had no choice but to divide their troops and search for Taoist volunteers everywhere.

However, in this complex area of ​​Central Asia, guerrilla warfare is a headache for everyone.

Although several troops were wiped out by the Central Asian coalition forces, the teachings of Taoism still spread to a wider range of people.

The struggle among believers is like this, if you have more, others will have less.In the end, when they are superimposed together, it is a qualitative change.

Compared with Islam, which has a strong feudal color, Taoism has undergone a complete transformation of the empire, and there is no doubt that its content and ideas are more advanced.

Supplemented by practical benefits, it is easier to be accepted.

Although blood flowed in rivers due to the brutal suppression by the Central Asian coalition forces, where there is oppression, there is resistance.

In July, spontaneous rebels began to appear in various places, causing great trouble to the Central Asian coalition forces.

Their logistical supply lines are often attacked, causing the troops in front to be hungry and full, and the wounded cannot receive effective treatment, which greatly affects the combat effectiveness.

The guerrilla warfare and delaying warfare of the Taoists achieved great success and bought time for the National Defense Forces.

In early August, a national defense force suddenly appeared in Srinagar in the southern Himalayas. The entire South Asian continent was completely shaken, and the Mughal Empire was in panic.

This is the tenth division of the Southwest Strategic Cluster.

While spending the winter after completing the Highland War, they discovered a hidden road near Ladakh.

After exploring, it was discovered that this continent can lead directly to Tianzhu.

After the Tenth Division reported, they began to cooperate with the Northwest Strategic Cluster with the approval of the Southwest Strategic Cluster Command.

The actions of the Tenth Division were stealthy and deadly. When they walked out of the snow-capped mountains, they saw an endless plain with no danger to defend.

Going west from here, Rawalpindi is not far away.Once this place is occupied by the Tenth Division, the Mughal army that encircled and suppressed the Taoist Volunteer Army in Central Asia will lose contact with the country.

Going south is Lahore Fort.

It used to be the capital of the Mughal Empire, and it is also very important today. It can be called the western gateway of Delhi.

If it is occupied by the Tenth Division, Derry will no longer be safe.

After careful consideration, Cui Zhanying did not attack Lahore for greed, but sent the 37th regiment to capture Jammu, blocked the road from Lahore to attack Srinagar, and ensured the logistics channel on the plateau.

Then he led the main force of the Tenth Division straight to Rawalpindi.

Originally, heavy troops were stationed here by the Mughal Empire to guard against the Safavid Dynasty.

However, as the Taoist priests made troubles in Central Asia, the original conflict between the Mughal Empire and the Safavid Dynasty weakened, and the two sides agreed to send troops to Central Asia, leaving this place empty.

How can the defense of only [-] indigenous soldiers stop the fierce attack of the Tenth Division?
Rawalpindi successfully fell into the hands of the Defense Forces.

This was a disaster, and the entire northwestern part of the Mughal Empire was immediately precarious and turbulent.

Desperate messengers rushed to Delhi, asking for help.

But the Mughal army, which was fighting in Central Asia, was dumbfounded.

Their supplies are all provided by Rawalpindi. Now that the food and grass are cut off, how can they fight?
The cheating side of the Tianzhu people is reflected.

They didn't inform their allies and ran away alone.

The troops of the Safavid Dynasty and the Bukhara Khanate were still in a state of ignorance, unaware that the danger had come.

Zhang Yinghuai found that the army of the Mughal Empire had fled, and there was a huge gap in the south, and he was keenly aware that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

At this time, it is reflected that the core of the Taoist Volunteer Army does not have the benefit of dividing troops.

Fully mobilized by Zhang Yinghuai, this powerful force crossed the foot of Tiri Jamil Peak at a great cost, and suddenly appeared behind the Safavid army.

The Safavid army is only more than 4 people, but its weapons and equipment are far inferior to the Taoist volunteer army.In the absence of assistance from friendly forces, the outcome of the battle was no surprise.

The Taoist priests in peacetime are very indifferent, but how crazy the Taoist priests are in troubled times, the Central Asians have finally seen.

The Taoist Volunteer Army, which gave full play to the advantages of the hail of bullets, completely defeated the Safavid army in World War I, taking more than 3000 prisoners alone.

Only more than 300 remnants of the Safavid army escaped, and it is not yet known whether they will be able to return to the country.

The Mughal army withdrew, the Safavid army was defeated, and the remaining Bukhara Khanate army seemed to be alone.

It can even be said that there is no need for the National Defense Forces to take action. The situation here in Central Asia has been completely controlled by the Taoist Volunteer Army.
