Black Iron’s Glory

The twenty-sixth chapter of the parade

Claude slowly poked his head out of the mud pit and observed it all over the place. He found that there was no movement in the distance, and he was relieved. He turned and said to the young Mai Keke and the big man Gemei who followed him: “Just here. Let’s take a break, put the gun, and hide it yourself, don’t expose it. Mai Jack, go to the back and tell Merd and Baker, let them hide on our left and right sides, the ambush point is here… ”

Two months ago, Claude received another order and asked him to report to the battalion with a squadron. Unlike the captain of the battalion battalion, Captain Wardlov, imagined that Claude was not favored by the Hansback Prince, but was sent to the newly formed experimental temporary combat unit of the Hansback Prince. , the battalion camp.

The experimental battalion battalion formed by the Great Prince of Hansback was to use the aiming accuracy of the Obash three-type arquebus to achieve the purpose of shielding the battlefield. To put it bluntly, it is to deal with the scouting and reconnaissance fighting squads sent by the anti-aueran five-nation coalition coalition. The information that has been mobilized by the troops and the arrangement of the artillery is no longer known to the enemy.

At most, the battlefield reconnaissance of both sides of the war was sent by the two sides as a scout, spying on the enemy’s troops, and arranging the firepower configuration of the defensive positions. The enemy reconnaissance cavalry was sent to the side of the combat reconnaissance squad to hunt down. Sometimes the scouts of both sides would also kill, but these methods are not very effective. The most common situation is that the enemy’s reconnaissance cavalry is running in front, and the already-fighting reconnaissance squad is chasing after it. Then, after a while, the reconnaissance cavalry of the party is at large, and the enemy’s reconnaissance squad is chasing behind.

Therefore, in the war, the two sides concentrated their forces to set up their positions. The entire battlefield was a stage for reconnaissance cavalry. Generally speaking, the reconnaissance cavalry is a group of three or four, and a small team is divided into three to four groups for reconnaissance. Cooperate with each other, and often follow up with a combat reconnaissance squad to cover or respond.

There is no good way to protect the enemy from scouting the cavalry to come to the reconnaissance position. The main reason is very simple. The other side is a light ride, and the maneuverability is strong. As long as it is not close to the position, the artillery is useless. The bullet is not enough distance, and the live ammunition needs to be very good luck. The concentrated soldiers are arranged in a queue and fire, and there is no shooting accuracy and a wide coverage area. The other party only has three or four rides. It is a waste of gunpowder and guns when the fire is fired several times. So the best way is to Scouting the cavalry to deal with the enemy’s detective.

But compared to the reconnaissance cavalry of the Kingdom of Aueras, the anti-aueran five-nation coalition’s detective rides are highly skilled, the battlefield is rich in experience, and the lure and guerrilla and immediate killings have a great advantage. A group of reconnaissance cavalry meets and fights immediately. The victory is often the detection of the anti-aueran five-nation alliance. For nearly five months, the Kingdom of Aueras lost more than 500 reconnaissance cavalry, equivalent to half. The strength of the battalion.

After the arrival of the great Prince Hansback in the city of Emis, this ineffective reconnaissance was stopped. At present, the battlefield between the two sides has become the world of the anti-aueran five-nation alliance. They often daringly interspersed behind the defensive positions of Kingdom on the side of the defensive position. Encourage or tease Kingdom’s reconnaissance cavalry to attack. If there are more people, they will run. If there are few people, they will immediately kill them. After winning, they will sway and leave Wu Yangwei’s departure…

“From the personal Wu Yong and the immediate skills, we can’t compare with Cannes Dukedom’s light ride. They are born cavalry. The first king Sterling IX once said, one to one, or ten to ten, Our cavalry is not the opponent of the Cannes Dukedom, but one hundred to one hundred, we can tie them with them. If it is a thousand to one thousand, we can crush them and kill them. Falling flowers and water.” The great Hansback prince said this to his officers.

Canas Dukedom is located on the only Cannes prairie in the eastern part of Freia Continent, where young people are born riders. The Kingdom of Aueras’ cavalry is a breastplate cavalry. The assault squad team is well-disciplined and well-known for its wall-mounted assault and sacrifice. It enjoys a high reputation in the eastern part of the mainland. However, in terms of immediate killing skills, it is not as good as the light cavalry of Canas Dukedom.

The establishment of the battalion battalion was an idea of ​​the Hansback prince as the Red Dragon Army and the Griffin Army in the Western Front. He was very keen to note that although the Obash three-type arquebus was attacked by many soldiers, There are still many hunters who like to use this gun.

According to them, this gun has its own unique advantages in aiming and precise shooting. Once a hunter of the Red Dragon Legion used this gun to attack and knock off an artillery firing group above the enemy city. The artillery was lost, and the attacking forces took advantage of the firepower left by the artillery to capture the castle, leaving the hunter of Hansback, who was watching the battle, very impressed.

So on the first day of his arrival in the city of Eames, the great prince heard that he could not unfold the enemy’s reconnaissance at the military conference. The enemy’s detective rides out and dominated the battlefield between the two sides. His Royal Highness remembered the precise shooting exercise of the guard squadron that he saw at the entrance to the mountain road on the way to the road. It was decided to set up a pilot combat unit battalion and let the attendant pick up Captain Wardlov from the bed in the middle of the night. Let him turn over the file of the guard squadron guarding the entrance to the mountain road.

Claude came to the temporary experimental combat unit of the squadron. If there is a regrettable drug to buy, Claude will definitely buy a lot to swallow. He is full of support, train his own garrison when he crosses the mountain, and watch the excitement well. He has to train there, and the result is seen by the big prince. Captain Wardlov thought that Will you be able to fly to the sky and fly to the battlefield?

On the first day of entering the battalion battalion, Claude learned from the mouth of the splayed squad, Lieutenant Colonel, that the mission of the battalion battalion was to ambush the enemy’s reconnaissance cavalry on the battlefield, obscuring the defensive positions of the enemy and not being attacked by the enemy. Entering, making your position here an enemy’s intelligence black spot, whether it is the movement of the troops or the allocation of firepower, must allow the enemy to detect it…

Speaking lightly, is the infantry dealt with the cavalry so good, although the Obas three-type arquebus in hand is the only one that Kings can accurately aim and shoot, but this sure shooting range is only one. One hundred meters. For the light cavalry, it takes only a dozen seconds for a hundred meters to reach you. You only have a chance to shoot a shot…

Claude is very skeptical that the Hansback Grand Prince formed this battalion battalion to take a squatting strategy against the captain and use the infantry to exchange the enemy’s gliding scouts. Even if an infantry fired a shot and killed a detective, and then was hacked to death by another detective, then from the exchange, King is still making a profit. After all, mastering the precise shooting aim of the Obash three-type arquebus is very simple. Three points and one line, sinking and hiding, and so on, find that the enemy is aiming to shoot, and the enemy has to train a good scout but needs a lot of money. .

It’s just that there’s no way to go to the cruise camp Claude. Fortunately, the rainy season in March is coming soon. Claude still has time to do some preparatory work, increase the training intensity of this guard squadron, and tell his team members on some battlefields. The key points to be aware of when concealing and retreating. The responsible officer of the battalion battalion, the Lieutenant Colonel Rosler, who has been slap-faced with a singular character, has been tested by a second-line corps, and the soldiers who have scored good grades are transferred to the battalion camp, ready to wait for the weather. Let them go to the battlefield to find the enemy’s detectives and fight hard…

From the perspective of the effectiveness of the battlefield, the purpose of the establishment and establishment of this battalion battalion by the Great Hansback Prince has been achieved. The scope of the enemy’s detective action is limited to the side of their own position, and they can no longer rush to the back of the position on the Kingdom side for reconnaissance. They are very afraid of the sudden sound of fire guns, which means that there are enemies aiming at themselves with muskets. It is likely that this gunshot will represent one side and lose one brother.

But to some extent, the formation of the battalion battalion also failed, because the Hansback prince appointed an unqualified officer as the head of the battalion battalion, did not dig and develop the greater operational effectiveness of the battalion. Even in the end, the battalion battalion was turned into a disciplinary battalion, and the officers and men who had made mistakes were joined. The purpose of entering the battalion battalion was to take the Obash three-type arquebus on the battlefield, kill three enemies and retrieve them. The enemy’s identity nameplate can be removed from the battalion and returned to its original unit.

The result of this is that the casualty rate of the camp is too high, as Claude is worried. Without any training and planning, after the end of the rainy season in April, Lieutenant Colonel Rosler, who had a slap in the face, couldn’t wait to drive the soldiers of the camp to the battlefield to ambush the enemy’s reconnaissance cavalry. In April, the battalion battalion killed and killed one-third of the soldiers. Although the treatment was good, there were no soldiers who subsequently requested to join, and even Lieutenant Colonel Rosler recruited the erring soldiers in order to supplement the manpower.

Claude’s garrison squadron also lost nearly half of the people in April. The original 60-strong squadron now has only 27 left, and eight in the treatment center of the city of Emis. Three of them have been crippled. They have been cut off by the enemy cavalry and it is very lucky to be able to save them.

Fortunately, the four nobility children are in good condition. First, they listen to Claude’s words, and second, they are more intelligent. Claude has become the biggest ace shooter in the battalion battalion. He is also the best in the camp. No matter who asks him what to do on the battlefield, Claude will bother to tell them what to pay attention to and what to do. Many soldiers can safely return to the camp to obey Claude’s warnings, and Claude is very popular in the troop camp, and is also the most prestigious Sergeant Chief in the troop camp.

But at the same time Claude also became the eye of Lieutenant Colonel Rosler, because Claude and his three conflicts, if not Claude killing the enemy in the most battalion in the battalion, Lieutenant Colonel Rosler may actually order the soldiers on the spot Claude Arrest and conduct military trials, maybe there will be a killing of chickens and monkeys.

The first conflict was about military uniforms. Claude thought that the big red shirt and the red straight military cap worn by the soldiers are not conducive to ambush on the battlefield, and will be discovered and dangerous by the enemy’s reconnaissance cavalry. It is best to change it to grass green or camouflage, and suggested that Colonel Rost, the great prince of Hansback, rectify the color of the uniform of the battalion.

This is a very reasonable suggestion for Claude, and he is also thinking about the safety of the soldiers in the camp. But I didn’t expect Lieutenant Colonel Rosler to be furious. He said that the color of the military uniform of the Kingdom of Aueras was fixed from the beginning of the country. The big red means brave and fearless, the invincible army spirit, you Claude a little Sergeant Chief has What power is proposed to rectify the color of the military uniform, do you want to betray Kingdom?

The second conflict was that Claude suggested that the soldiers who went out to ambush should preferably act together in small groups, and it would be better for each person to bring a more gun so that they could shoot twice in a row. However, Lieutenant Colonel Rosler has already had a prejudice against Claude. He believes that Claude’s proposal is simply an enemy. The enemy can seize two muskets by destroying a soldier in a battalion.

The third conflict was that Lieutenant Colonel Rosler believed that many soldiers were lazy, went to the battlefield and did not ambush the enemy but hid it until the evening. Therefore, he asked the soldiers on the battlefield to bring an enemy’s identity plate every time they came back, in order to get the rest of the next two days, otherwise continue to ambush the enemy on the battlefield.

Claude thinks that this proposal is not practical. If you want to get the enemy’s identity nameplate, it will add more danger to the ambush soldiers. Sometimes it needs to be evacuated immediately after the attack. It is very impractical to obtain the enemy’s identity nameplate.

As a result, Lieutenant Colonel Rosler was furious and screamed and asked Claude to obtain at least ten enemy nameplates in the next week, otherwise he would not want to have the right to rest…
