Although Fang Hongyi's words were sincere, Feng Zicai still heard the rejection in his tone, and Feng Zicai's face couldn't help but sink, "Does Lord Dutong look down on me, these thousands of Elite Army brothers?" ”

"The boss will be mistaken," Fang Hongyi was not in a hurry, "The Cui army is not well armed, and the training is not lawful, if it charges with the French army again, it must be too many casualties, so it will inevitably hurt morale, not to mention that the Cui army defeated the French army and held on to Langshan City for many days, successfully delaying the pace of the French army's attack, they don't have to dream if they want to enter Zhennan Pass now, if the Cui army continues to kill, we will come over, wouldn't it be too easy, boss, please let the brothers of the Cui army rest for a moment or two, if the new soldiers are not enough, Then ask the army to send the French.

If the army can send the French, why wait until now with such a determination to die? This is to save Feng Zicai's face, hearing this, Feng Zicai nodded, "Then please ask Lord Dutong to command the battle, the old man will come to see the way the new army fights, and the adults will not blame the little old man for stealing the teacher on the side to learn the arts." ”

"Naturally, no," Fang Hongyi smiled, "Please take care of yourself." The herald came to report, "There is already an exchange of fire with the French army ahead!" Feng Hongyi nodded, "How many people did they enter the city?" ”

"About two thousand."

"Within an hour, I want you to settle the battle," he ordered, "annihilate on the spot!" ”

Feng Zicai shook his head slightly in his heart, how could this young Lord Dutong be so naïve? Two thousand well-armed French soldiers, who want to be annihilated on the spot in an hour? Fantasy, right?

Feng Zicai is an old military officer, and he is not very interested in these things of the new army, he thinks that relying on the training method left by Qi Jiguang, over time, it is enough to deal with the army of foreigners, and the army also relies on his own hands to train out, and fights the French A big victory, he stood by Fang Hongyi's side with a skeptical attitude, the fifth town of the new army was very calm and solemn, standing motionless in the square, with the sound of guns and cannons in the distance, one after another, until half an hour later, The news that Feng Zicai's jaw was about to fall was passed back, "Report, the French army has been completely annihilated!" The French army outside the city wanted to enter the city again, but was blocked by the brothers of the fifth battalion on the city wall! ”

"Very good," Fang Hongyi nodded, "Plug the gap, the rest of the battalion will gather at the south city gate, and the whole army will be on alert, don't let the French take advantage of our unstable foothold to bite us." ”

Feng Zicai stammered, "Lord Dutong, why are your soldiers here so strong?" You know, you know, "Just these two thousand people entered the city, and the Cui army couldn't resist it, so they could only delay time with human lives!"

Fang Hongyi smiled and said nothing, several people hurried to the south city gate, the boulder blocking the gate in front of the city gate had been removed, Feng Zicai was shocked when he saw it, "There is no boulder blocking the city gate, how can you resist the legal person?" It only takes a few strokes of their cannon to blast open this wooden gate, and Lang Son Fortress will not be able to hold it! ”

Fang Hongyi and his person, among the twelve capitals of the new army, have the name of "Fang Niu", which means down-to-earth, not arrogant or impatient, and modest, although Feng Zicai is an old official, but most of the people in the new army are proud, and they can't listen to the opinions of these foreign people at all, if it is replaced by Chu Yunfei here, I am afraid that if it is a strange eye, it will be sarcastic, but Fang Hongyi smiled indifferently and did not refute, "Langshan City is small, and it can't put so many soldiers in the new army, since you want to hold Langshan City, then," Fang Hongyi's gentle eyes became sharp, The bull not only has the virtue of diligence, but also the courage of bullfighting, "offense, is the best defense, line up!" He shouted, "Out of the city to meet the enemy!" ”

The two Western drummers struck the mallets in their hands, knock knock, only the new army could understand, this rhythm was the rhythm of the attack, the city gate was babbled open, the new army dispersed in an orderly and rapid manner, in Feng Zicai's view, it was scattered out of the city gate, and it was not lined up in several phalanxes with the French in the open space outside the city, but rushed to the front and rushed to the position of the French army. There was also a detachment of cavalry that split up and charged in a roundabout way towards the two wings, leaving the frontal battlefield to the musketeers on foot.

What kind of tactic is this, Feng Zicai shook his head, no matter how bad it is, he will form a square line like the French army, right? Qi Jiguang's method of training troops also requires formation training, so running up on his own will not send him to death? Before he could say anything, artillery was fired from the city walls, and apparently, the new army had brought the artillery as well.

Mi Le shot the telescope back and forth in horror, and the biggest fear in his heart really came true, "This damn intelligence actually tells us that the regular army of the Chinese will not reach Langshan for another week!" Why are they here now! "It's not surprising that all the pioneers who suffered a secret loss were sacrificed in Langshan City, and in the face of the sneak attack of these regular troops, they must not be able to come back alive!

He ordered the French army to fight back, "If you want to fight us head-on, if you can't ask for it, I will let you taste the anger of France," he gritted his teeth and looked at the front of Langshan City in the telescope, the Chinese army had begun to attack, but his voice seemed to suddenly have a problem, he was hoarse and speechless, and his frightened eyes became great, "What! He spoke silently for a long time before he shouted out a sentence that a layman couldn't understand at all, "Skirmish line tactics!" ”

In the late 19th century, breech-loading rifled guns were widely used, and the lethality of weapons was greatly improved, and the tactics of using dense formations in columns were no longer suitable for combat needs. In the Franco-Prussian War, under the threat of French firepower, the Prussian army fought in a straggler line formation in order to reduce casualties, and the skirmish line tactics were formed. During the battle, the infantry is brought within range of the rifle and dispersed into a skirmish. Arranged in a line, with a gap of 6 to 8 meters between soldiers, while shooting, while using the terrain to leap forward and carry out the impact; Artillery fired before the infantry charged, killing and wounding the enemy; The cavalry carried out a detour, flanking the enemy's flank and expanding the results of the battle.

The soldiers in gray uniforms walked forward with their waists raised, and the muskets were completely different from the muskets that Feng Zicai was equipped with to change ammunition, those muskets of the Cuijun Army, Feng Zicai thought that they were only slightly stronger than the burning sticks, and it was very inconvenient to fight, the French muskets could change ammunition once four rounds, but he was surprised to find that the muskets in the hands of the soldiers of the new army could actually change the ammunition after nine rounds!

Feng Zicai, who was standing on the city tower and watching the battle, was dumbfounded, "What kind of musket is this?" How can it be so powerful? (To be continued.) )
