This Qing is wrong

Chapter 232 European Version of Bali Bridge (addition for 300 monthly tickets)

"Report to the general, a large number of enemy troops have appeared on our left flank, and the number is estimated to be at least 2."

"Report to the general, a large number of enemy troops have appeared on our right wing, and the number is estimated to be at least 2."

"Report to the general, a large number of enemy troops have appeared on our rear flank, and the number is estimated to be at least 3."

As soon as General Patton opened the array, he received news that the enemy was attacking from other directions one after another.

Obviously, he was surrounded.

From a tactical point of view, it was wrong for Barton to choose a decisive battle in the field with a wide field of vision, and to attack more with less.

Because in a decisive battle on this kind of venue, the party with a large number of people can easily encircle from all sides and give full play to its own strength.

That's what the generals of the coalition of French nobles thought.

Of course, this premise is that there is no modern difference in the weapons and equipment of the two sides.

The reason why General Patton chose to fight in the wilderness is very simple. He has a general-purpose machine gun under his command, and the best tactic is to defend and counterattack.

We all know that machine guns are more effective in defensive warfare than in offensive warfare!

However, the enemy does not listen to him, how to make the enemy take the initiative to attack?

Simple, pick a terrain that the enemy thinks is good for them.

The wilderness is suitable for enemy troops to deploy, so why not deploy machine guns for defense?

The two sides are in an encounter battle, and the main force will start preparing for the battle as soon as the encounter, so naturally there will be no civil engineering work.

The soldiers of the New French Guard were split into four parts and arranged in four directions.

In fact, for the current Patton, there is no main battlefield at all, and the enemy forces that need to be faced on each battlefield have absolute superiority in strength!
This time the aristocratic coalition forces came out in full force, but Patton was not. He left thousands of allied soldiers in Paris.

If at this time the coalition forces of the nobles divide their troops to attack Paris and try to rescue Louis XIV, they will definitely experience the power of machine gun fire.

Of course, Patton is more willing to believe that the native generals on the opposite side want to annihilate themselves here, and then concentrate their main force to attack Paris and push them all the way.

For war, if it is not necessary, who would not want to concentrate their forces to attack a little bit?
Luther was a civilian soldier in the New France Guard. He was originally a haircut in Paris...

Barbers in this era often work part-time as doctors, so they are quite courageous. At least killing people will not cause too much psychological barriers, so Luther was recruited!

This is the first time in Luther's life that he regrets being a barber.

When Barton learned that the barbers in the city were part-time doctors of bloodletting therapy, he was quite novel, and then ordered all the barbers in the city to be recruited into the army.

In Barton's eyes, this group of people who bleed people all day should adapt very quickly to the battlefield environment of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

The New France Guard didn't have much time for training, so Patton naturally wanted to recruit young men who were 'good at killing' as much as possible.

Luther looked at the endless distance, the army carrying the banners of various nobles, striding towards here with muskets on their shoulders, the cold sweat on his forehead never stopped.

Luther glanced left and right at the queue he was in. There were only two thin horizontal rows, and they hadn't stood together yet. There would be an open space every other distance, which was erected by the soldiers who claimed to be allies. Machine gun positions.

The so-called machine gun position is actually a tripod supporting a general-purpose machine gun.

This can well counteract the recoil when the machine gun shoots, allowing the machine gunner to shoot more stably.

Each machine gun position is equipped with two Allied soldiers, one is responsible for loading and the other is responsible for shooting and firing.

Of course, there was a group of unarmed military followers behind the machine gun position, helping to carry the ammunition boxes.

These soldiers and civilians are all "good people" in the city outside Paris.

That is, in Barton's eyes, ordinary people who are engaged in relatively 'safe' industries.

The soldiers of the New French Guards did not have uniform uniforms at all. Even if Patton had money, he still had no time to order more than 1 sets of military uniforms!

Therefore, Luther was still wearing the barber's casual clothes, but a white cloth strip was tied on his forehead.

Well, Patton learned from the experience of the Japanese soldiers in World War II. Wearing cloth strips on his head not only saves the cost of military caps, but is also very conspicuous, so he can tell who is his own at a glance.

On the other hand, the soldiers of the aristocratic coalition army on the opposite side were either wearing iron helmets on their heads or wearing three-cornered hats that were very popular in the Europa continent in this era.

The generals of the aristocratic allied forces dubbed each other the 'Hatless Army' after they learned of the costumes on the heads of the New French Guards.

Not wearing a hat was considered very indecent behavior in Europe in this era.

"There are too many of them, we must not be able to fight..."

Luther murmured with a mournful face.

The colleague next to him kept his eyes closed, drawing a cross on his chest, and chanting prayers that only he could hear.

Luther's colleague on the other side whispered close to his ear and said: "When there is a fight, get down first, and then find a chance to slip away.

The Allied forces are small in number, and they will ignore us after the fight. "

Luther replied with a pale face: "If you lie down, you will be shot by the officer..."

"Cum a fart!

At that time, there will be gunpowder smoke and gunshots everywhere, who will care about us. "

Obviously, this colleague wanted to get a few more people to get down together, otherwise he would be the one to get down when so many people were standing, and he always felt that he would be easily regarded as a typical collapse...

After persuading Luther, the man persuaded the person next to him.

"Don't make noise, prepare to fight!"

The allied non-commissioned officer with a cold poker face walked up to this group of New French Guard soldiers and shouted.

The queue suddenly became quiet.

The reason why the words of the officers and soldiers of the New French Guards who served as officers and soldiers of the Allied Forces is so good is that the officers and soldiers of the Allied Forces who served as officers have been educating the soldiers of the New French Guards with sticks during this period of time.

There was even a special case of being beaten to death during the training!

The soldiers of the New France Guard were very afraid of the Allied forces and dared not speak out.

The sound of the artillery stopped. The number of artillery of the noble coalition army was not large, and the quality was worrying. After firing a few shots, they found that they could not hit anyone at all, so they ceased fire.

As for shooting at close range, the generals of the noble coalition army heard that the "guns" in the hands of the alien army in Paris had an extremely long effective range, and they did not dare to let the artillery get too close.

The predecessors of the aristocratic allied forces were the French regular army, and the tactics they adopted were naturally the linear phalanxes that had just become popular in this era.

All those striding forward in front were elite musketeers with flintlock guns on their backs.

Those who are not elite are behind, holding matchlock guns.

However, today's French army has a high ratio of flintlock guns, and the ratio exceeds that of matchlock guns.

And, bayonets have already appeared.

The spearmen walked with the arquebus, so in Luther's field of vision, there were all bayonets and flintlocks on the opposite side.

Every infantryman wears a breastplate.

In this era, hand-to-hand combat is still the mainstream, so armor has not been eliminated. Generally, elite musketeers will wear a chest armor.

Of course, this is the treatment of the elite of the regular army, and the arquebus soldiers behind will have no armor to wear.

The aristocratic coalition forces put all the elite in front, intending to smash the enemy's battle line in one go.

Soon, the heads of the dense coalition of nobles approached a hundred strides away, and the French Musketeers were still advancing.

At this moment, all the machine guns distributed on the entire front suddenly roared.

The experienced Allied soldiers used cross-shooting tactics at the beginning. Luther's eyeballs suddenly swelled, and his jaw almost fell to the ground.

I saw that the soldiers on the opposite side fell down in rows like cutting wheat, and the bodies of many soldiers were even broken into two pieces on the spot. No matter what kind of armor they were, they were all as fragile as paper!
And this group of French elite soldiers had extremely high military quality. They insisted on cross-firing machine guns and marched forward dozens of steps. Thousands of people were killed before their morale collapsed.

Then, while turning to run away, another large area was shot.

The layers of corpses made Luther in a trance. He could no longer see a speck of dirt, and he couldn't even count how many layers of corpses were stacked...

A thought flashed in Luther's mind - this is not a war, but a massacre!

The battlefield conditions in the four directions are similar, and it is nothing more than the reason for more deaths and fewer deaths.

Not surprisingly, the elite French army at the forefront completely lost their combat effectiveness.

Just when Luther was in a trance, he suddenly heard the charge whistle.

The drumbeat sounded just right, and Luther had no choice but to walk forward with the flintlock on his shoulder.

Compared with the formation and pace of the aristocratic coalition forces on the opposite side, the formation of these New French Guards was obviously much crooked, but none of them dared to retreat, because the Allied soldiers who had just slaughtered an unknown number of enemies were following them with general-purpose machine guns.

The deployment of the noble coalition forces in charge of the attack has been completely abolished. Among the people who escaped, few even held weapons, and there were many soldiers who had mental breakdowns like lunatics.

Not to mention fighting, this kind of lunatic has even become difficult to take care of himself.

snap~
Luther 'pulled' his ankle out of the corpse and moved forward with difficulty.

The yelling from the Allied soldiers at the back never stopped. If anyone was slow, he would immediately kick him over. If he dared to turn around, he wouldn't mind sending a bullet from behind.

It was obvious that our side was the attacker, but when we were advancing, we were shot and killed more than a dozen people by the Allied Supervising Team behind us!

Human life is really too cheap at this moment.

Fortunately, Luther didn't walk for long before he saw the defensive formation listed by the noble coalition reserve team in front of him.

At this moment, most of the Allied soldiers in the rear suddenly split up, laying down on the ground with their machine guns in hand, and started shooting at the enemy crowd.

Luther and his party took advantage of this opportunity to regroup.

No way, when they crossed the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood, the already distorted queue had completely dispersed.

Everyone's trouser legs were dyed red, and even a few unlucky ones fell down, and their whole people were bright red.

Those who didn't know thought it was a devil crawling out of hell.

The front of the noble allied forces was like a torn rag, swept by machine gun bullets.

The resistance will of these reserves is obviously not as good as the first French army responsible for the offensive, and it didn't take long for the entire front to avalanche.

Immediately afterwards, Luther heard the command to charge.

Luther, who had not fired a single shot, held up a bayonet-mounted flintlock, with a white strip tied around his head, and dressed in a barber's casual attire, and numbly shouted: "Long live New France..."

There is no way, the superiors have requested this, and when charging, you must shout slogans to strengthen your courage.

But Luther didn't panic at all now, the array on the opposite side had already collapsed in the Allied machine gun fire.

He was just charging behind a group of rout soldiers who were frantically fleeing, so what's there to be nervous about?
It turned out that the war was nothing more than that.

The New French Guards were charging, and the Allied soldiers were not idle, holding machine guns and following the New French Guards to charge.

If encountering an organic enemy who is still resisting, these allied soldiers immediately stop and start shooting.

In less than 10 minutes, the opposite side will definitely collapse!
After all, this era is full of dense phalanxes.

If it is not dense, even the bayonet charge of the half-baked army of the New French Guards cannot stop...

Collapsed, completely collapsed.

None of the battlefields in the four directions could resist, no matter how many reserves were sent up, they could not withstand the machine gun fire of the Allies.

More than [-] people, except for the cavalry who did not even dare to charge, ran away ahead of time, the rest were reduced to ants running all over the mountains and plains.

Luther said that he was very tired, he did not kill alone, but ran a 'marathon'...

As long as the rout throws away their weapons or kneels or lies down or crouches on the ground and raises their hands to surrender, Luther will let them go.

It's not that he is kind, but that the officer asked for it.

The aristocratic generals of the aristocratic coalition army, relying on their own horses to stay in the rear, ran faster and faster one by one, and all the middle and lower rank officers died.

Patton, who was holding military binoculars in the distance, was not at all surprised by the results achieved by his army.

If the opponent gathers the knights in the army and engages in special assault warfare like the Knights Templar, the Allied soldiers will probably suffer a lot of casualties.

Those New French Guards were actually used by Patton to guard against this situation.

However, Patton's defense was useless at all. The noble coalition army still followed the traditional tactics, using those knights as middle and lower-level officers to control the army to fight.

How could the scattered knights be able to stop the machine gun fire?
And here is the wilderness plain, there are not many obstacles for the knights to dodge.

Therefore, the losses of Barton's side in this battle were minimal, comparable to the European version of the Battle of Baliqiao!
Although the New French Guards did not fire a round of volleys throughout the process, they were still very useful and provided sufficient manpower to take prisoners of war.

These prisoners of war are precious cannon fodder in the eyes of Patton, and they are the source of superior soldiers for the expansion of the New French Guards.

"After this battle, the New French Guards should have more confidence in the Allied Forces, and they can properly promote a group of battlefield veterans to serve as grassroots officers, so as to quickly expand the army.

Those nobles from the French provinces, after experiencing this fiasco, hope they can recognize the reality.

This time, I will send an envoy to each province to recruit them.

I'd like to see who else is unwilling to surrender! "
