Chapter 377: The auxiliaries rebelled

After being busy for a while, Sun Wang looked at the corpses on the centralized destruction point, piling up more and more corpses, and couldn't help but secretly swallow a mouthful of saliva.

He looked at the fact that there were no injured cavalry comrades around, so he stopped and asked He Ming, "Platoon commander, tell me, if a team with this style of fighting from the second cavalry battalion comes to fight us, can we withstand it?" ”

He Ming pursed his lips disdainfully, "You kid, can it be the same?" A few of our rows of men stood in the dense array, at least a few dozen rifles with bayonets on them.

Not to mention the dense rain of bullets, how great a deterrent it would be to the enemy's cavalry in the time it took for the enemy to fire several salvos in the time that the enemy rushed in front of him from the effective range.

Let's just talk about the previous exercises and joint exercises, didn't the cavalry try all of them, and the war horses were all smart, and when they saw that there was a bayonet array in front of them, they didn't go forward.

Infantry vs. cavalry, and cavalry vs. cavalry, the two sides fought fundamentally differently.

When the cavalry fights, no matter how dense the formation is, there is a limit, and in any case, there are gaps to pass. ”

"Then you said that if the Houjin Tartars dismounted, engaged in foot combat, and shot them with their bows, then what should they do?"

He Ming smiled at his recruit fellow and explained, "There is no accuracy at all when the infantry bow is thrown, the range of flat shooting is more than 70 meters, at most two rounds, and the cavalry array can rush in a blink of an eye, at that time they still have a bow in their hands, isn't it just looking for death?" ”

Sun Wang nodded as if he didn't understand, and then asked suspiciously, "Platoon commander, then our cavalry is so powerful, the battle is over, what else do you want our infantry battalion to do?" Cleaning up the battlefield? ”

He Ming glared at him, "You kid, when will it be the turn of the cavalry to finish the battle?"

You joined the army a little late, and you haven't fought with the Suke Saha group of people the year before last, so I don't know, not counting those cannon fodder such as Baoyi, aha, etc., only counting the Eight Banners and horses, when the Houjin Eight Banners soldiers were fighting, they either relied on the cavalry to hedge more, or dismounted with swords and spears.

The cavalry is too mobile, and our infantry is too passive to go up, but once the Houjin army uses the infantry array, at that time, it will be the turn of our infantry battalion to play.

In the face of the powerful firepower of our infantry battalion, Houjin's infantry bows are a bird's egg, can they be as powerful as our 40mm caliber infantry guns and flintlock rifles? And that's not even counting the artifact-like pump-action rifle that fires continuously.

The cavalry of the Houjin Army will not directly rush the dense formation listed by our infantry, and similarly, our cavalry will not rush the spear and spear formation listed by the Houjin infantry like fools.

If, as you said, their cavalry battalion is all over, where will our infantry go to eat? ”

"What a big mouth, what are you talking about there? Keep your dog's mouth shut. There's a new mission. ”

He Ming looked back and saw that it was Zheng Laosan, the commander of his own battalion who came over on horseback, who was also an old veteran in the army, and He Ming had worked under him for several years.

Originally, He Mingdu had already become a company-level commander, but because of a big mouth, he committed a taboo and was punished, if it weren't for the help of him, the old battalion commander, he wouldn't even be able to sit down as a platoon commander.

When He Ming saw that it was the old chief who arrived, he hurriedly beat his chest and saluted, "Yes!" Ask the battalion commander for the order. ”

Zheng Laosan arrived at the front of the horse, returned the salute, and did not dismount, but ordered loudly: "After transporting the wounded, the officers and soldiers of the whole battalion immediately assembled, set off towards the north, and rushed to camp under the city of Jinzhou as soon as possible." ”

He Ming looked at the so many materials left around, frowned and asked, "Battalion commander, let's go, what should we do here?" They haven't been cleaned yet. ”

"Don't want it, don't want it all, leave all the scene to those auxiliaries, let's go to Jinzhou City, and if we win Jinzhou City, it's indispensable to be able to eat a good meal, it's not better than making a fortune here!"

After Zheng Laosan finished speaking, he was about to leave, but at this time, He Ming suddenly asked again, "Battalion commander, why did you run over and run over by yourself?" Where's your pond horse? ”

Zheng Laosan glared at him angrily, "Except for a few battalion and company-level commanders, all those who can ride horses have all been transferred to pursue the fleeing Houjin army, if I don't give the order, who will give the order?" Don't talk about any more fucking nonsense, after transporting the wounded, the whole team will set off, hurry up, don't delay the meritorious service. ”

When Zheng Laosan drove away, He Ming immediately asked the herald of the platoon headquarters to convey the order.

While waiting for the soldiers to return to the formation, the 1st Infantry Battalion of the 3rd Infantry Regiment, which had been assembled in the south as a reserve and a vigilance, had already lined up in a neat queue and passed through the battlefield from the flank of their 2nd Battalion. The warriors shouted "1, 2, 3, 4" and marched to the north, with the banner of Zakdan's commander-in-chief following them, flying high.

Sun Wang looked at the fluttering red flag and said happily, "Platoon commander, the command has finally unfurled our military flag." ”

Then, he looked at the first infantry battalion running past him and said enviously, "It really deserves to be one of the first infantry battalions formed in the whole army. ”

He Ming glanced at the dead corpses and dead horses of the Houjin Army all over the ground, glanced at his mouth and said, "The first battalion is just the number ahead, what's there, it's still angry, on the compilation table, isn't our second battalion also formed by the first echelon!"

If you want to talk about bad luck, you still have to count the cavalry troops, they are called a fierce ah, just now this cavalry hedge battle, that look at Lao Tzu is a rabbit in his heart like a burst of jumping, than the political commissar to help match the blind date more than the jump. ”

The two were chatting and waiting for the team to assemble, when they heard a fierce howl coming from the top of the mountain.

The two had never heard such a frightening sound, and at first glance, they were frightened, and hurriedly grabbed their rifles and prepared for battle.

However, when they turned their eyes to look, they found that it was the group of ragged former Dongjiang soldiers, which is now the Lushun Dispatch Army Auxiliary Corps, that is, the group of former Dongjiang soldiers who made that terrible howling sound.

These auxiliaries, they hold the rudimentary and primitive weapons in their hands, such as hoes, shovels, salute sticks, ropes to tie supplies, crowbars to open ammunition boxes, saws and axes for logging, etc., all kinds of things, it is simply amazing how there are so many tools in this logistics.

When the auxiliaries ran closer, He Ming found that almost all of these people had seriously distorted faces, rushing through the gaps in the ranks of the second infantry battalion that had not yet completed the formation like a tide.

He Ming couldn't help but clench the rifle in his hand and muttered, "What do these guys want to do?" It can't be a rebellion, right? ”
