Chapter 319

"The war is still going on in the Middle East? I heard that Baghdad was beaten to pieces! Those Swiss people are so pissed off, and even the Arabs were beaten like this." Mr. Ao felt that he could not continue talking like this.

If we keep talking about the topic just now, Master Man might lead his troops to massacre Jinling University after returning to China.

After all, it was also a university of the Ming Dynasty. It was massacred by a group of soldiers. The impact on public opinion would be too great.

Moreover, Master Ao knows Li Xiao well. Even if Master Man does such a thing, Li Xiao will never embarrass him.

He will not even be removed from his position as commander of the 1st Cavalry Division.

Brothers are brothers and will tolerate all the mistakes made by the other party. Even if the crime is heinous, they will never attack a brother.

If that really happens, Li Xiao will be flooded with saliva from the whole country. Those rotten literati who have nothing to do, they don't care so much.

It must be a series of articles attacking the imperial court, attacking Man Ye, and asking the court to deal with Man Ye.

How big a crisis this matter will cause, only God knows in the end.

"The Swiss are just like that. They fight with one muscle and don't know how to use their brains. They were like this when they fought with me. The Italians on both wings surrendered, but they still stubbornly refused to retreat.

As a result, I had to fucking storm their position. I lost more than ten tanks and dozens of people died."

Mr. Ao took a sip of wine and said viciously.

Due to the gap in equipment, the Ming army lost more than ten tanks and dozens of casualties. Such a battle was a heavy casualty for the Ming army.

However, it must be noted that although the Ming army suffered casualties, in that battle, only 50,000 Swiss soldiers were captured.

This does not include the number of people who stormed the Swiss positions and annihilated them.

Sometimes, Ming Dynasty's requirements for victory were a little harsh.

Ming Dynasty didn't care how many shells were fired in this battle, but it did care about the casualties of even one person.

After the war, the staff officer will investigate the cause of each casualty. Then, make a report based on these causes of casualties.

Then he improved the Ming army's tactics and combat habits.

Most of these cases will be included in the teaching materials of the Army Officer School, so that trainees who have never been on the battlefield will know some knowledge about how to avoid casualties on the battlefield.

Since the European War, the Ming army's combat style has improved little by little.

From the very beginning, tanks rushed and attacked, to now, tanks rely on gestures to coordinate with each other. Planes in the sky attack the ground in an orderly manner.

It can be said that the well-trained Ming army already possesses strong qualities of infantry-tank coordination and air-ground coordination.

The outstanding ones among them are naturally the First Expeditionary Force and the First Cavalry Division.

Although the First Corps of the Expeditionary Force was a hodgepodge, every field division except the Second Division had personnel deployed to participate.

But the main force is still Ao Ye’s former Army First Division!

As for the First Cavalry Division, when this unit was still riding horses, Mr. Man was the division commander.

As the largest troop of Mongolians, there is now no war horse, not even a pack horse.

The only Mongolian battalion in the entire army was not part of the First Cavalry Division, but was organized under the name of the little-known Jiujiu Division.

In the early days of the war, the Ming army suffered heavy casualties.

Many of the casualties were caused either by improper command or the troops' lack of combat experience.

Some casualties even came from accidental bombings by our own artillery.

Fortunately, the Ming army had a very good system of replenishing troops. All of these replenishing troops went to the battlefield after completing three months of infantry training at home.

The Ming army was not like other countries. Yesterday they were farmers with hoes, but today they have become soldiers with guns.

Li Xiao has always emphasized that sending untrained people to the battlefield is an act of murder.

The supplementary force system effectively guaranteed the combat effectiveness of the Ming army. Even during the Battle of Tsaritsyn, where the combat attrition was the most serious, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army was not significantly weakened after a large number of casualties.

On the other hand, the French army was different. A large number of experienced officers and soldiers on the front line died in battle. The troops that came up later were almost useless.

Especially in the later period, the Italians, Spanish, and Austro-Hungarian soldiers were sent by the French.

These people were simply here to kill people. A fully loaded division was sent to the battlefield. It collapsed within three days, and the people were either captured or killed.

Even the commanders of several divisions were captured by the Ming army.

Only the most elite veterans of the French army could confront the Ming army head-on without falling behind.

“Although Baghdad was occupied, the security war never stopped.

The Arabs are very mean in their fight. I will touch you today and give you a black shot tomorrow!

When troops go out, they must always be aware of bombs on the streets.

These bombs may be disguised as a pile of garbage, or they may be disguised as something contained in a small car.

The most immoral thing is that some bombs are tied to children and women.

Arab women all wear long robes. Some women are so thin that they can't even see clearly when holding explosives.

But when they pass by you, these people will set off bombs.

After a bang, you and the bomb are finished together.

There are many such things, even too many to count.

Therefore, I try my best to prevent our people from fighting this kind of security war.

This kind of battle is too cruel and not suitable for us.

It is very difficult for the Swiss to still hold Baghdad under such circumstances."

Li Xiao rectified the name of the Swiss!

It is not without reason that the Papal Guards chose Swiss people.

Although these people are stuck in one position, they are not very good at making changes.

But one thing is good, and that is to keep their promises. As long as it is something they promised, they must do it even if they risk their lives.

This is also where Li Xiao admires the Swiss!

After Baghdad, the next target for the Swiss is Mosul.

It was already so difficult to attack Baghdad. It can be said that like Warsaw, Baghdad was almost razed to the ground.

Many ancient buildings were destroyed in the war.

Then Mosul, the home base of the Kurds, will be even more difficult to shake. Now there is information coming out about how many fortifications and bunkers there are on the ground in Mosul.

The most amazing thing about Mosul is that huge underground fortifications have been built there since last year.

This kind of underground fortification is definitely a nightmare for siege troops.

They can use tunnels to effectively avoid artillery strikes. They can also use tunnels to send soldiers to the other side of the city at any time.

During this process, no one will be shelled or killed or injured by landmines.

The Swiss are fighting hard at the back. They already had almost 20,000 people to attack Baghdad. Now they are going to attack Mosul, and they are estimated to have 30,000 to 50,000 people.
