The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 90 I'm OK

Robin said that he would be responsible for this battle, and put forward new demands!
Robin only asked the Pampanga and Iglots to surround the valley, and did not continue to force them to pay great sacrifices and storm the fortifications of the Restoration Army.

Presumably they would not refuse!
As Robin expected, Lone Wolf and other leaders of the Pampanga tribe nodded in agreement.

Naturally, the Black Lizard would not refuse either!
For fear of being retaliated by the Liberation Army, the Black Lizard is now more eager than the Spaniards to eliminate the Liberation Army.

Hei Li is like a red-eyed gambler. As long as the Spaniards still have the determination to destroy the Liberation Army, Hei Li will follow even if they bring their own dry food!

Robin explained.

"Don't worry, everyone, the food and supplies consumed during the siege will be borne by the Governor's Mansion."

"The rebel fortifications are indeed tricky and almost impossible to attack head-on."

"But we can think differently."

"Why do we have to attack the fortifications of the rebels head-on, can't we just besiege them?"

"The rebels are trapped in a corner of the river valley. How long can they hold on to the food and supplies?"

"When the food and materials in their hands are exhausted, no matter how strong the fortification is, it is just a stronger tomb."

If it weren't for the fact that there was no way to conquer the fortifications of the Liberation Army, Colonel Robin would not have used such an offensive method of killing a hundred enemies and damaging himself a thousand.

The food supplies of the Restoration Army are indeed limited, but it is not easy for the Spaniards to transport the food needed to maintain an army of thousands of people into the mountains for a long time.

The traffic conditions in the mountains are really bad!
And if you go by water, because the water flow is relatively fast, it is particularly prone to accidents.

Of course, the more important reason is that if the tactics of siege are adopted, it is easy to turn the battle into a grinding battle.

If it lasts too long, how do the various forces on Luzon think of the Spaniards?
Do you feel that the force of the Spaniards has declined, and then you have a bold idea of ​​"a man should be like this" and "I can do it myself".

If this happened, would the order of the Spaniards in Manila be maintained?

However, the fortifications of the Liberation Army are really difficult to attack!

He couldn't overcome it head-on, so he could only use such a stupid method.

siege!

In the present age, when Vauban's siege method has not yet been invented, the whole world is helpless against bastions.

Either fill in with human lives regardless of casualties, or besiege the city!

Now it has been proved that a strong attack is useless, no matter how many lives are thrown into it, it will not be able to break through the bastion of the Liberation Army.

Robin had to choose to besiege the city!

In order to strengthen the determination of the Pampanga people and Iglott to besiege the city, Robin even promised that during the siege period, the food and logistics they needed would be taken care of by the governor's office.

……

On the second day, the Spaniards, Pampanga people, and Iglot people began to act according to the agreed plan, preparing to besiege the entire river valley.

After three unsuccessful attacks on the fortifications of the Restoration Army, all of which suffered heavy losses, the Spaniards now have about 8000 troops if the Pampanga and Iguerot are counted.

Among them, there are more than seven hundred Spanish musketeers, nearly four thousand people from Pampanga, and about three thousand people from Iglot.

Robin calmly mobilized troops!

Three hundred Spanish musketeers and nearly [-] natives of Pampanga camped outside the lower bastion, surrounded by an artillery formation composed of ten artillery pieces, large and small, in the middle of the camp.

The other two hundred Spanish musketeers and almost two thousand natives of Pampanga, under the guidance of the Iglots such as the black lizard, climbed over the dense forest with steep terrain.

Arrived in the middle of the river valley, on the gentler side, camped not far from the city wall of the Liberation Army camp.

The remaining two hundred Spanish musketeers, together with the Iglots, headed towards the upper reaches of the river valley.

They are going to besiege the sources of supplies of the Liberation Army on three sides!

It is impossible for the Liberation Army to know nothing about the enemy's actions.

As Robin's three-sided encirclement plan was gradually realized, the Liberation Army also realized the seriousness of the matter.

Zhu Hongyu urgently called a meeting of the generals of the recovery army.

Zhu Hongyu sat upright at the top, with a serious expression on his face.

After everyone arrived, Zhu Hongyu spoke.

"Now Hong Mao's plan is very clear!"

"The red hair, the Pampanga people, and the Iglot people surrounded on three sides. They want to cut off the source of supplies for our recovery army and trap our recovery army in the river valley."

Zhu Hongyu glanced around and saw that everyone had serious expressions on their faces. He cleared his throat, laughed loudly, and said.

"Haha, there is no need for everyone to be so nervous!"

"Although the current situation is critical, it is not the time for life and death."

"Although our army is besieged on three sides, it is not impossible to break the situation!"

Everyone got up from their seats, cupped their fists, and said in unison.

"Please show me the general!"

Zhu Hongyu got up from his seat, holding a stick in his hand, pointed at the simulated sand table in the meeting room and spoke confidently.

"As far as this general is concerned, the red-haired general opposite is really stupid!"

"He even split the Musketeers in his hands into three parts, which were used to encircle the three directions of our recovery army."

"Hehehe, this operation is quite similar to the stupid move that Yang Gao's supervisor Saarhu made back then."

"If we want to fight head-on with seven or eight hundred red-haired musketeers, even if we can win, our recovery army will suffer a lot of casualties. To be on the safe side, this general will continue to take a defensive position and wait for opportunities."

"But now, Hongmao actually took the initiative to divide the troops!"

"Then my chance to revive the army has come!"

"Our army only needs to learn from the old slave's tactics in the defeat of Sarhu, gather the main force, let you come a few ways, and I will only go all the way."

"Defeat the three groups of soldiers and horses separately, and the red hair's siege of our recovery army will naturally be broken!"

The defeat of Saerhu back then was all due to Yang Gao's coquettish manipulation.

In the Battle of Saerhu, although the Ming army claimed to be 47, in terms of real strength, there were not that many at all.

The Liaodong Army, the Shanshan-Shanxi Frontier Army, the Xuanda Frontier Army, the Sichuan Army, the Zhejiang Army, the Southwest Army, and the North Korean vassal soldiers, the total number is no more than [-].

Coupled with Yang Gao's coquettish operation of dividing into joint attacks, the Ming army had no more than 3 or [-] troops along the way.

The four armies were defeated by the old slave at a very small cost by relying on the concentration of superior forces!

In turn, the situation in Huangming Liaodong was completely corrupted, Jiannu gradually became bigger, and even eventually led to the overthrow of China and the discoloration of the country.

In fact, if Yang Hao hadn't engaged in some coquettish maneuvers, it would be almost impossible for the Ming army to lose in the Saarhu battle!

The Ming army didn't need to show off at all, just a [-] army marched steadily towards Hetuala.

They don't even need to care about Nurhachi's harassment. As long as they don't divide their troops, Nurhachi can't take down the [-] Ming army.

Even if the [-] Ming army could be eaten, at least half of the [-] Jiannu Eight Banners soldiers would die.

Half of the soldiers of the Eight Banners were dead, Jianu, would there still be such a big threat?
