In this era, there is still a certain market for cutting people with a saber, but the tactical scenarios where the saber can play a role have become more and more demanding.

In the words of Europa Universalis, after 1813, impact was far less important than firepower.

Even more so in 1866.

……

The excellent military horses improved for several generations, following the afterglow of the cavalry era, the highest sprint speed of the French cavalry division can reach 30 km/h.

This speed is not too slow, and the speed of the Da Ming Old Man Le series tanks is not much faster. Of course, Old Man Le Sheng is lasting.

However, as a test, the commander of the 2nd Cavalry Division, Lamidell, remained rational and did not have the idea of ​​directly attacking the Ming army's position with the cavalry.

Instead, they advanced slowly under the coordinated protection of the Mexican Infantry Regiment. They reined in and stopped three kilometers away from the Ming Army's fortifications.

Then, the military band began to play music.

The dragoons got off their horses, sang the Marseillaise loudly, picked up their Chasepeaux rifles, and continued marching to the beat of the drums.

The Berbers, who were servants of the knights, helped the French army masters lead the horses and followed closely behind.

After all, the Ming army on the opposite side has 4 people, while the French army has only 1 people. Lamidre is ready to run away at any time.

Originally, digging soil and building walls was a happy time for soldiers next to growing vegetables, but they were disappointed by these Gallic chickens.

The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, who were buried in the soil, felt very unlucky when they heard the French playing elegant music.

The Marseille march is not as good as the gag music in the Roman barbecue restaurant.

……

Bao Tie'an is 47 years old.

Compared with when Sinji was bombarded two years ago, he is old again.

He never thought that his old bones could go all the way south with the army to recover several cities on the west coast, and he could go to the ocean to pacify Fusang with the army. Southern barbarians.

Fifteen to join the army, eighty to return.

Daofeng villagers: Who is there in the family?

Bao Tie'an still remembers that when he was recruited into the Wusong Green Camp, he happened to be 15 years old.

In a blink of an eye, the blue hair has turned into white hair, and now he has become the commander of the artillery battalion of the Ding Guojun of the Ming Dynasty.

In fact, Bao Tie'an wanted to apply to the Ministry of War for retirement after taking over Xinlu.

He still remembered how excited he was when Daming's artillery was finally able to hit the enemy's position in that battle.

Bao Tie'an wants to write a memoir to record these things.

Not only does it tell the story of future generations of Ming Dynasty martyrs who won revival for the nation, but it also wants to pay homage to General Chen Huacheng's spirit in heaven.

However, as Ming continued to expand its army, the shortage of grassroots officers became larger and larger. Bao Tie'an, who wanted to submit a discharge report every time, couldn't help staying.

Although his mathematics level is still not as good as that of young people, his more than 20 years of gunner career has also given him valuable experience and keen intuition.

Coupled with pairing up with the boys from the Imperial Academy, as schoolmates, Bao Tie'an's math level has also improved a lot.

With his outstanding performance in several battles, he became the battalion commander of the artillery battalion.

"Battlefield Commander Bao, command from the military department, Commander Mo told us to find a way to fuck the fuck!" Mo Bai's order came from the messenger in a hurry.

……

"Whoosh! Boom!"

Accompanied by the sound of a sharp shell falling, a [Eagle 005] howitzer shell hit the target accurately.

A large column of the French army fell down immediately, and the iconic red trousers were blown into the sky by the air waves from the shells.

Perhaps it was the blessing of General Chen Huacheng's spirit in heaven, or perhaps the French's marching phalanx was the best target, and the artillery battalion hit the enemy with its first move.

The French did not expect that Ming's artillery could have a range of more than 3000 meters, let alone such accuracy.

Their 12-pound guns have an effective range of less than 2000 meters. If you don’t count the artillery that Prussia secretly developed at this time and can hit more than 3500 meters, the French cannons should be invincible in the world!

It's a pity that if Prussia can have a secret weapon, so can I, Ming Dynasty.

My Daming is truly invincible!

"Damn it, this must be a stray bullet, it's a stray bullet, keep going!"

Ramidel took the reins and yelled.

The French soldiers showed the military literacy of the world's first army. After a slight confusion, they immediately recovered their morale.They believe that as long as they get within 1 kilometer, victory will belong to France.

The self-confidence of the French army is capitalized.

Capital is the rifle in their hands.

The French Chasepeaux was one of the finest rifles of the era.

If the Prussian artillery shined brilliantly in the Franco-Prussian War, then the French rifles were obviously better.

The French Chasebol rifle has a range of 800 meters, 1.5 times that of the Prussian Desailey rifle, and it is even more accurate than the rifles of later generations. It is now well-deserved the strongest rifle in Europe.

Moreover, due to feedback from the Japanese battlefield, the Chasaipo rifle has also used brass bullets in advance instead of paper-packed fixed bullets, making its power even further.

In fact, just like skirmish tactics, the processing technology of brass bullets has matured as early as the Napoleonic era.

It is just because of the stereotyped thinking that they have not been popularized for a long time.

The copper-shelled bullets, like barbed wire, were considered by the French military advisers who had escaped from Scallop Island to be Ming’s strange tricks, and they reported it to the Ministry of War in detail.

So the chasaipo rifles of this era have brass bullets, which are stronger than the chasaipo rifles in history.

It's a pity that before the appearance of tanks, the king of land warfare was no longer a rifle, but an artillery!

Just like North Korea's war against the Japanese in the Bingchen year, Daming was good at cannons, and the Japanese pirates were good at matchlock guns. In the end, the balance of victory was tilted towards Daming.

The same is true in the Franco-Prussian War.

Same as the Milky Way joke "French rifle, brand new, never used and only thrown to the ground once".

When the Franco-Prussian War ended, Prussia seized a mountain of supplies, including more than 60 brand-new Chassepo rifles, which made people dumbfounded.

……

Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—

Since the first gunshot, the sound of low-speed piercing air on the battlefield has not shown any signs of stopping.

The shells fell one after another with terrifying accuracy.

Digested gunpowder combined with shrapnel has become a terrifying killing machine.

After hitting more than a dozen shots in a row, Lamidell didn't dare to say what kind of stray bullet it was. This is the Bowling Ball of Death God!

Mingren's artillery is much more ferocious than imagined!

Can't go on anymore!

Must immediately attack backwards!

Although advancing hundreds of meters and receiving more than a dozen shots in vain, it is a bit embarrassing to turn to attack without letting go, but this is already the best choice!

Ramidere was very decisive. He pulled the rein and raised the horse's hooves, ready to convey the order for all the troops to mount and retreat.

However, at this moment, he suddenly felt something passing through his body.

Then, the strength quickly drained from the body.

He could see the lieutenants rushing towards him, yelling, and he wanted to know what they were shouting, but he couldn't make out what they were shouting.

Then, he lost consciousness.

In the era of rifled guns, the commander still dared to dress colorfully, ride a horse and perform riotous moves in front of the battle. It can only be said that he still thinks that he died not fast enough.

The Daming [Dewu Two Years System] rifle was born out of the Japanese [-]-style infantry gun.

Although this kind of gun has been used by the People's Liberation Army and the Volunteer Army all the way to the Korean battlefield, in fact, its background color is the same as that of the Hanyang 88-style rifle. They are both rifles from the end of the [-]th century, and the craftsmanship does not surpass this era too much.

The main reason is that the design concept is relatively advanced, which makes it more reliable and accurate, and can even be used as a sniper rifle.

It's a pity that the scout who hit Lamidell was still too far away from his position, a full 1000 meters away.

At this distance, the penetrating injuries caused by [Dewu Two Years System] are hardly fatal.

In the anti-Japanese drama, the source of the inspiration for being shot several times in the body is probably the poor performance of the [-]-style infantry gun in terms of lethality.

There was even a scene where the Japanese invaders and the Eighth Route Commander were shot at the same time, and the two led the troops to continue shooting at each other a week later.

But in any case, this shot successfully paralyzed the enemy's command system.

The French army, which did not receive an order to retreat, still chose to advance.

By the time the adjutant took over the command and ordered the entire army to retreat, it was already too late.

Although the combat goal of the Dingguo Army is to encircle and fight for aid, is there any reason not to eat the meat that is brought to the mouth?

Seeing that the enemy was about to get on their horses and flee, two cavalry teams rushed out like the wind behind the Da Ming formation.

In order to support the Wumu army to complete the blitz, the Dingguo army allocated some vehicles and supplied a group of cavalry at the same time.

These cavalry were naturally the Sioux Foreign Legion.

"Yu-"

One by one, the Yin cavalrymen, whose faces were painted red, intercepted the enemy's rear like a gust of wind.

The Yin cavalry is not a dragoon, but a relatively rare carbine cavalry, which also uses a saber.

The first ones standing in front of the Yin cavalry were the two Mexican infantry regiments.

They had also been shot several times, and their will to fight was very low, and they fired around with inferior rifles. Only a few unlucky Yin people of the Sioux tribe were hit.

In fact, in the Mexican infantry regiment, there are quite a few people with Yin faces.

However, the Yin cavalry's saber did not hesitate at all.

Chapter 371 Correct Surrender Posture

"The emperor's imperial decree said that in this battle, the military merits will be doubled, and those who kill the head of the true law will be rewarded with three Zhukas, and they can seal their wives and sons!"

"Whoever kills the head of the fake method will be rewarded with a Zhuka, and the fire wire will be naturalized, and he will be a citizen of the Heavenly Kingdom in this life!"

"Those who cut off the head of a Mexican savage will be rewarded with 30 naturalization points!"

"Daming's Zhuka is just ahead!"

"Those guys don't deserve the surname Yin at all. They are not from Yin, they are savages. Please don't show mercy!"

In fact, even without the call of the cavalry captain, the people of Yin would not show mercy.

Originally, the Yin people were not united.

Speaking earlier, in order to compete for survival resources, as early as the arrival of the white people, the various native civilizations in the Americas, like all regions of the world, vendetta each other.

Later on, the intelligence of the Yin people far surpassed that of the blacks, and their martial virtues were undeniably insufficient. They even formed several large tribal alliances that could fight back and forth with the whites, but they were still instigated and bought by the whites. Fall apart.

Unity is not an innate gift. The idea of ​​unity must be understood, who is your problem and who is our problem.

The appearance of the white people made the Yin people understand a little bit.

But only with the appearance of Daming and Emperor Zhu Fugui, did the Yin people fully understand who is you and who is us.

Those who are close to China are us, the descendants of the Xia, who can be educated.

Those who are close to the white-skinned people are you, you are the barbarians who help the evildoers, so it doesn't matter if you kill them.

The Yin cavalry pierced through the flanks of the Mexicans like a thorn and blocked the retreat of the French.

They don't like fighting either.

The improved Spencer carbine in their hands is no match for the French long rifle.

If the French cavalry dismounted and shot at each other, they would suffer extremely.

But being able to force the French to dismount is already the greatest success.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the two infantry divisions of the Dingguo Army completed the encirclement of the French army.

At this time, the Santa Ana Fortress had also discovered that the situation was not good.

McMahon originally thought that the cavalry division plus two cannon fodder infantry regiments would be safe anyway to harass.
