Viscount Alan will never forget such a scene as today. It was obviously a classic infantry assault battle that was talked about in military academies. How come it turned into a smelly muddy pond after being beaten back and forth?
At the beginning, even if there were more than 200 enemies in the foxholes, their firepower was intense and fierce. However, after that round of conflict, the first regiment actually lost less than 200 men. It's not a stretch at all. At that time, the closest distance between the charging corps and the trenches was less than 80 meters.
Eighty meters. Not 800 meters, not even 8,000 meters. For the running legions, it was only a dozen seconds. Viscount Alan had even imagined the legion breaking into the enemy's position in advance. The scene of Chinese people fleeing in embarrassment.
There were only two battalions on the high ground. And he has enough of a group. Even if the number of troops is reduced by 200, they will still have the upper hand in terms of strength. Please come to more and faster chapters. But no one thought of it. At the most critical moment, the enemy dared to counterattack.
"Madmen. They are all madmen. Since they decided to counterattack, why are they still digging trenches? Are you going to all this trouble just to trick me?"
All right. Now Viscount Alan has fallen into a state of paranoia. He couldn't think of any other reason to explain the current situation. In fact, there is really no good reason to explain. Even Xiao Letian couldn't give him an accurate answer. It cannot be said that my soldiers lost control of their emotions. Just charge without a military order.
All right. Countercharge means countercharge. Viscount Alan still believed that he would win. The advantage of numbers is obvious. It is obvious that the proportion of veterans in the Thorn Flower Master updated as soon as possible is high. If there are more people than there are fewer people. Veterans can still lose against new recruits. Alan might not be able to face the shame of being in the military for the rest of his life.
Alan was wrong. This mistake was more serious than his initial choice to charge blindly. He really overestimated the strength of his side. At the same time, they also underestimated the combat effectiveness of Xiao Letian's two mixed battalions.
No one would have thought of it. All the mixed battalions under Xiao Letian were equipped with new Mauser rifles. People never expected that there was a group of warriors from the medieval era hidden in this army.
Despicable. Shameless. In the melee, the rifles in the hands of the Austrian soldiers could only be used as bayonet holders. In a face-to-face fight, no one can load ammunition from the muzzle.
But the Mauser rifle does. The soldier held the rifle flat, pulled the bolt, and loaded the gun. A single bullet fired at close range might kill two or three Austrian soldiers like a candied haws on a stick.
This despicable tactic was used vividly in the hands of Steven, Daniel and Grant. These three were the first to break out of the trenches. It’s not a fanatical and reckless act. The three of them worked together very well.
Steven and Daniel held off the enemy's attack with two bayonets. The bayonet in Grant's hand flashed with cold light and pierced the enemy's chest at the most tricky angle. Or simply pull the bolt and pull the trigger. One bullet can definitely hit an enemy and pierce through it.
At this time, the Austrian army finally tasted the consequences of attaching great importance to artillery and despising muskets. Muzzle-loading guns and breech-loading guns seem to be just one word apart, but they are two different epoch-making weapons. One word of difference can completely change the way the army fights. Such a huge technical gap. It would be surprising if the Austrians did not suffer.
The time it takes for a muzzle-loading gun to fire once is enough for someone to fire a breech-loading gun three or four times in a row. Moreover, the muzzle of a muzzle-loading gun must be ensured before loading ammunition. This inefficient and backward shooting method made this group of Austrian troops complain endlessly.
It’s not just the disparity in weapons that’s painful. When the foreign legion came over with a knife. All the Austrian troops were stunned. This is the middle of the nineteenth century. Muskets have been common in armies for two hundred years. Nowadays, apart from the barbarian peoples, there is no other European country that can play this kind of cold weapon battle formation.
But even the most backward tactics have their place. The current chaotic battlefield creates the best opportunity for the Ba Dao team to fight. After the musket has become ineffective. The tachi is much easier to use than the bayonet.
"Stabilize the formation. Press forward slowly...disperse them. Let them collapse..." This group of Japanese samurai pressed towards the south step by step with a pool of blood. During this period, three waves of Austrian troops tried to launch a surprise attack but failed. Fifteen minutes later, the Austrian troops on the west side of the battlefield couldn't stand such brutal killing anymore. The battle formation collapsed instantly.
"Assholes. Are you all pigs? Don't you claim to be veterans? Hold on. Rush back..." Viscount Alan was crying now. It had only been more than half an hour into the battle. His own soldiers actually retreated like an avalanche.
Morale is really subtle sometimes. When everyone fights to the death and refuses to retreat. It seems that everyone has forgotten that you can save your life by running away. But only one person around him chose to escape. The persistence in other people's hearts may not last even half a second.
"Damn it. What kind of bullshit war is this? I won't serve you anymore..." Countless Austrian troops followed the footsteps of the escapees and turned away. No matter how many officers shouted around him, no one looked back.
"Collapsed. The enemy collapsed...Long live." The morale of the brothers in the special mixed camp suddenly soared. The combat effectiveness doubled out of thin air. Update as soon as possible
All the Hamburg recruits never expected that the battle would go so smoothly. An integrated regiment of the arrogant Austrian army was defeated within half an hour.
"Hahaha. These rabbits run pretty fast. I should have known they were so easy to fight. What kind of bullshit trenches are we digging..." Daniel wiped the blood from his face. He almost died from laughter. At this moment, Tian Da's firecrackers came out from behind him. It was a big slap to the back of the head.
"Raw melon and eggs. You dare to laugh at military orders when you first enter the battlefield. Do you know that it's called 'fighting with danger'? Forget it. This is Chinese military art and you don't understand it... Damn it. Look to the south. What is that? .”
Tian Da PaoZhan points his hand into the distance. Please come to more and faster chapters. At this time, people suddenly found some shadowy black figures hidden among the debris at the end of their sight. Not waiting for people to argue. I heard a muffled thunder in the distance.
Boom boom boom... amidst the muffled thunder there was a bright and dim fire.
"It's the artillery battery. Our artillery battery has finally arrived..." The Austrian army, struggling to escape, was filled with joy. I saw several black dots flying past with white tracks in the sky. A cloud of smoke and dust suddenly rose from the Shiqiao Highlands.
At this time, Xiao Hexin and Sima Yun were behind the charging team, holding down the formation for everyone. They were standing on the south side of the trench. This time the artillery battery salvo attacked the position behind the trench.
Boom boom boom. First update: Explosive bombs exploded behind them. Large chunks of dirt mixed with debris flew everywhere. Xiao Hexin was closest to the explosion point. The air wave directly knocked him and the soldiers to the ground.
"Old Xiao..." Sima Yun rushed over as soon as he saw him. He dragged Xiao Hexin like a dog to death and hid in a foxhole.
"Old Xiao... Xiao Hexin. Don't scare me. Don't scare me."
In his desperate shaking. Xiao Hexin shook his head and woke up. "What are you crying for? I'm fine. Hurry up and let the brothers continue to charge. Stick with the enemy. Only artillerymen who fight in melee with the enemy dare not bomb..." After saying this, Xiao Hexin pushed Kai Sima Yun. Pick up your rifle and jump out of the foxhole.
"Charge. Everyone charges... The battalion commander has given the order. Continue to charge and fight with the enemy..." Countless messengers quickly weaved in and out of the melee. Give orders to every corner.
Let’s talk about these high-quality soldiers. It's easy to command. Orders drilled into their ears. In less than two seconds, they already knew the intention of this military order. Facing long-range fire strikes from artillery. The only solution for now is to hang with the enemy. Only by forming a situation where you and I can avoid casualties.
"Kill... charge... stick to the enemy..." At this time, ordinary soldiers in the mixed battalion. and Eastern officers. Plus the foreign legion of the Ba Dao team. Everyone abandoned their formation. He rushed into the crowd like crazy and continued the most brutal hand-to-hand combat.
Viscount Alan was completely crazy at this time. He didn't expect that a salvo from the artillery battery would anger these madmen even more. Far from retreating. On the contrary, the more they killed, the crazier they became.
"Hold it. You pigs... turn around. Fight them. You deserters... go to hell. Viscount Alan even shot and killed a deserter who was running at the front.
"Guard company... shoot. Anyone who escapes again will be shot." Under Alan's strong order. The guard company raised their rifles. He opened fire on his own robe mercilessly.
Bang bang bang... the gunfire formed a line and was drawn like a braid among the running crowd. Perhaps it was the soldiers in the guard company who felt grateful for their comrades. This intensive shooting killed only three people. More than ten people were injured. Most of the remaining bullets hit the soil and the sky.
Not much damage but very shocking. The deserters behind suddenly stopped. Looking back and forth hesitantly. At this time, the noble Viscount Alan raised his white gloves. He shouted angrily, "You bunch of pigs. See if you still look like imperial people. Turn around and fight for me. Do you want to go to court-martial?"
Killings plus threats from nobles. The Austrian soldiers had no choice. They could only hold on to their weapons and form a thin linear queue and turn towards the Prussian army. But before this wave of counterattack, the Austrian army gathered 200 people. The group of madmen wielding swords and licking blood with their tongues rushed over.
"Duck... charge, charge, charge..."
Looking at this group of East Asian perverted murderers who are like gourds of blood. The Austrian army, whose morale had already collapsed, turned around and dispersed without saying a word. Ignore the threat of the security company any more.
"Run. Expect to be killed by bullets. I don't want to be broken into pieces. These are demons that eat human flesh..." The crowd rushed back crazily. The guard company hadn't even had time to open fire yet. He was beaten to pieces by the defeated troops.
Alan burst into tears now. "There is no way to fight like this. It's not mentioned in the textbooks. Isn't this bullying? How can you not follow the routine..."
At that moment, Viscount Alan's two sides were fighting. Even the war horse under his crotch felt the master's uneasiness. Xi Lulu became restless.
