Rebirth of South America as King

Thank you for your support when Tianjiao comes

I looked at the map sent by Adolph for a while, and Li Mingyuan had a rough siege strategy in his heart.

The north wall of La Paz is facing the Chinese independent army's offensive position, while El Alto occupies the hillside of the wall and provides fire support to the north wall's defensive forces, which can pinch the frontal siege forces.

Judging from the construction of the fortifications and the configuration of the weapons in the two cities, the Bolivians also placed the main firepower on the north wall, and eight fixed heavy artillery were evenly distributed on the eight muzzles of the north wall, while the east and west were just separate Equipped with two heavy artillery and several light artillery.

I did not know the specific firepower distribution of the Bolivian people before. Li Mingyuan was afraid to easily send troops to attack La Paz, but the situation is much clearer now.

The north wall is a key area for Bolivian defense. The offensive is difficult, and the towering west is not suitable for the Chinese independent army to attack. Only the east side is far from the range of El Alto's fire deterrence, and the **** of the mountain is small, which is the most suitable main target at present.

明 Li Mingyuan observed the terrain outside the eastern city wall a few days ago. There is a flat mountain area 200 meters away from the foot of the city wall. At that time, because Li Mingyuan was not clear about the reality of the Bolivian army in the city, he did not plan to choose the main attack position here.

But now it ’s different. The troops on the opposite wall are clearly distributed. Raising this flat for another seven meters can just attack the heavy artillery on the eastern wall. Just destroy the two defending heavy artillery and use your own artillery to kill them. The garrison on the opposite side can remove the siege obstacles in advance for the siege forces below, and provide a favorable advantage for the final capture of La Paz.

With a clear direction for the siege, Li Mingyuan also brought in Liu Pu and a dozen staff members to refine the details of the attack, and then convened high-ranking Chinese Independent Army officers and Indian leaders of various ethnic groups participating in the siege to the temporary meeting tent to announce the latest combat plan. .

Among the military accounts, Liu Pu, Wang Dashan, Luo Linshan, Li Dawei, Zhao Yongzeng and other Chinese independent army generals sat on the left side of the large account, while a dozen Indian leaders sat on the other side, waiting for Li Mingyuan to speak.

Among the sitting people, Wang Dashan, Zhao Yongzeng, Wang Xiaoshan, and Luo Linshan are not more than 30 years old, but they each have an elite army. The older generation of Chen Guozhu, Li Sandou, and Zhang Ansong are all forty. Many years of age, rich experience in combat, is in the golden age of a general.

Big waves and sands, from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement to the South American riots, both the young generals and the older generations of Taiping veterans have keen opinions on war.

The three days of the Leighton Army in La Paz, excavating tunnels, night raids, and blasting down the city. The methods used to attack the city before can be thought of by the Chinese Independent Army generals who are sitting there.

The city of La Paz was built on a hill with criss-crossed mountains and stones underneath the city wall. It was very difficult to dig an tunnel. The Chinese independent army also tried methods such as blasting below the city and attacking the city at night, but all failed.

According to the understanding of most people, special forces are omnipotent. It should be a matter of grabbing a wall and breaking the city. However, the problem of conquering a strong city with hundreds of special forces can only happen on TV because special forces are also human. Long-form combat capabilities are much stronger than ordinary soldiers, and can play an important role in specific battlefield situations. However, for a sturdy defense city, sending hundreds of special forces to attack at night is equivalent to sending them to death. There is no possibility of success.

The siege was frustrated and the Chinese independent army could not stay too long under the city of La Paz. Most of the Chinese generals speculated that Li Mingyuan had summoned everyone to issue a command to attack.

The attack on the fortified city is bound to be a **** battle, but the Chinese Independent Army who grew up after major and minor wars is not afraid of the **** battle. They are convinced that Li Mingyuan will lead them to the ultimate victory. Thinking of the coming of the war, a row of Chinese independent army generals have a stable look. Waiting for Li Mingyuan to issue a combat order.

"Let me tell you the good news before the meeting officially begins: Sucre's coup against Melgarejo, coup leader General Adolfo captured Sucree yesterday, and Melgarejo learns that Sucre was out of control After the news, the leader had left La Paz last night. Now the defense force of La Paz is at its weakest time, so now is the best time to attack La Paz. "

As soon as Li Mingyuan finished speaking, the following generals and Indian chiefs began to discuss in a low voice.

"Seiko, is the intelligence true? It will not be fake news released by the La Paz defenders, deliberately seduced us?"

安 Zhang Ansong led the rear of the palace and the troops just met with Li Mingyuan. They did n’t know much about the situation in Bolivia, so they asked this question.

情报 "The information is no doubt. These two are the messengers of General Adolfo. They passed the information of Sucre." Li Mingyuan pointed at the two Bolivians standing behind him.

After being sent by Adolfo as a messenger, the two of them naturally had evidence of trusting the Chinese Independence Army. After Li Mingyuan introduced them to the Chinese general and Indian chief, they looked at each other, then one step forward and spoke. "My general promised your army that as long as your army helps us defeat Melgarejo, Bolivia will not only allow your army to cross the border, but will also provide food guides on the way to your army, so as to protect your army in Bolivia. March safety. "

"There are 20,000 troops under Melgarejo. If you want the Chinese Independent Army to help you defeat his troops, just providing food guidance along the way, the price is too low."

"Yes, although Melgarejo took some soldiers, there are at least more than 10,000 garrisons in the city of La Paz. How many casualties will it take to attack the Chinese troops in La Paz? Have your generals considered a batch of food to make the Chinese? The Independence Army fought chestnuts for you. Did you send the hankers? "

As soon as the Bolivian messenger's words fell, two Chinese officers retorted immediately.

The attack on La Paz was a spontaneous act of the Chinese Independence Army. Even if Adolph did not send people to contact Li Mingyuan, he would force La Paz. However, since Adolph took the initiative to seek cooperation, the Chinese Independence Army naturally had to seek more benefits.

The two Chinese Independent Army fronts opened their mouths, and the other Chinese Independent Army generals quickly came to understand, one after another arguing that Adolph had no sincerity in cooperation.

The gnat mosquito is no matter how small it is. It is not polite for Adolfo to take him to slaughter Li Mingyuan, but the issue of compensation needs to wait until after defeating Melgarejo, the problem now is to capture La Paz as soon as possible.

"Well, please be quiet," Li Mingyuan said as soon as the Chinese general underneath stopped arguing. Instead, more than a dozen Indian chiefs relented and rebuked at the messenger sent by Adolph, to see that fierce appearance, if not In the camp of the Chinese Independent Army, two messengers were about to be swallowed and stripped by Indian life.

The contradiction between the indigenous Indians and European descendants is what Li Mingyuan would like to see, and these Indians are also his means of balancing Adolph. As long as Adolph is not a fool, after defeating Melgarejo, he dare not speak out. Er, because then, Li Mingyuan can also cooperate with the Indians to deal with white descendants. Perhaps Adolfo really doesn't care about the seat of the Bolivian president, but he will not risk the white descendants' loss of Bolivian sovereignty and turn over the Chinese Independence Army.

Speaking to appease the angry Indian leader, Li Mingyuan continued: "Last night, I and the Chief of Staff of the United States worked out a plan of battle overnight, and now come up with it, let's see if there is anything to add."

Li Mingyuan said, picking up a small wooden stick, pointing at the sand table among the crowd: "The two cities in the east and west of La Paz are weak in defense, and the east city is relatively well-formed, which is suitable as a breakthrough for the siege. Therefore, the main attack location is Laba East Town. "

"Shizi, the enemy's firepower configuration is unknown, and it is not appropriate to rush to use Dongcheng as the main attack location."

At present, the generals of the Chinese Independent Army will not question Li Mingyuan's decision. Only the older generation of Taiping Army veterans such as Chen Guozhu watched Li Mingyuan grow up, and they will speak out against them when they disagree.

Li Mingyuan led the Chinese Independence Army to victory in every battle, and the belief brought by religion led to the Chinese Independent Army generals to have a blind self-confidence in him. This situation has been recognized since Li Mingyuan and Liu Pu had a long talk, but for this kind of The best solution to the situation is to give the generals more opportunities to lead soldiers alone, so that they will not be affected by Li Mingyuan and make their own judgments.

Prior to this, Li Mingyuan divided the Chinese Independent Army into three units: the maritime, field, and logistical forces. They were based on the consideration of the overall situation and the exercise of their own side. Of course, as for the effect, only three units will join Brazil. Only in the south can we see the results.

"Oh, Uncle Chen is more concerned. I have obtained the layout map of the fortifications of La Paz. The combat plan was also made after actually inspecting the terrain outside the East City." Li Mingyuan laughed.

"Shizi said so, my old Chen was relieved." Chen Guozhu laughed.

After the explanation, Li Mingyuan continued: "Dongcheng as the main attack direction, I am going to put in a brigade's troops to attack, Dashan, I will give you the main task."

"Yes, humble duty leads."

"In order to confuse the enemy and prevent the enemy from realizing our true intentions, I decided to launch an attack on West City, North City and El Alto at the same time. We want to create an illusion for the enemy: La Paz North City is the focus of our attack. And the other three points are nothing but offensive.

Plutonium drove the enemy's enemy forces to create favorable conditions for the capture of Dongcheng. "

The Chinese generals and Indians in the puppet army account followed Li Mingyuan's wooden stick, and they also focused on Beicheng. UU Reading Books www.uukanshu.com

The north wall has the largest offensive surface, and it also suffers the most damage from both sides. The Chinese generals who are sitting here do not want their soldiers to suffer heavy casualties. Therefore, no general will take the initiative to undertake the task of attacking the north city.

Li Mingyuan was about to appoint a candidate. At this time, the old chief of the Aymara people who had been standing behind said, "General, the task of attacking the North City will be left to us, Aymara. I promise to hold the enemy and cover the general. Capture La Paz. "

Li Mingyuan gave the old patriarch Aimara an admiration glance, and smiled, "The old patriarch takes care of the whole situation, and I can say nothing. So, after attacking Krabas, I gave the Aymara five hundred muskets, Rabbah. Seymour's seizure was also part of the Aymara people. "

The Aymara village was the first Indian tribe to cooperate with the Chinese Independent Army. From the Chinese Independent Army, it has received nearly two hundred muskets. With the rifle in its hand, the Aymara village has attracted many Indian tribe of the same ethnic group. Now The village of Aymara not only restored its vitality, but also expanded the size of the village by one generation. The number of young people in the tribe can reach 1,500. This time, in order to assist the Chinese independent army to break through La Paz, the old chief brought 1,000 Young and strong.

Thousands of people attacking North City is certainly not enough. Li Mingyuan set his sights on other Indian leaders.

"There is no free lunch in the world. If you are willing to send troops to attack the North City, you can get a copy of the musket and the post-war seizure distribution. There is only one chance. Think about it."

The Indians did not value the food and other materials seized by the puppets, but the muskets strictly controlled by the Bolivian army were what they desperately wanted. Li Mingyuan said quite well that it would not be possible to obtain muskets without doing anything. A dozen Indian leaders whispered to each other for a while, and made the same decision as the Aymara people.
