On other fronts, although most of the infantry of the 6th Division was still not equipped with breech-loading rifles, each battalion would be equipped with a small number of breech-loading rifles, and the only mission of these soldiers with breech-loading rifles on the battlefield was to hunt down the opposing officer!

On the right flank, when the 2nd Infantry Regiment attacked, the accompanying more than 100 soldiers with rear-loading guns continued to hunt down the officers in the line of the opposite county guard, so that by the time the 2nd Infantry Regiment advanced the line to a distance of about 100 meters from the other side, the officers on the opposite side had already suffered a large number of casualties.

Without the command of an officer, ordinary soldiers would not be able to organize effectively and fight effectively.

The result is still a crash!

Looking at the fleeing army of the county guards in front of him, Wu Guanlin shouted excitedly: "We won!" ”

Lin Ziran on the side nodded slightly, looking calm.

Wu Guanlin, who was originally very excited, saw Lin Ziran's appearance, and secretly said in his heart: In the face of such a big victory, he can be so calm and calm, and he is worthy of the adult that my Wu Guanlin chose to be loyal to!

Wu Guanlin didn't see it, Lin Ziran, who was calm and calm, had quietly clenched the command knife on his waist with his left hand!

At this moment, none of the people on the battlefield were more mobile than him Lin Ziran.

Because from this battle, Lin Ziran saw the hope of sweeping the entire Luo'an County and even unifying Nanhai Prefecture!

When breez-loading rifled guns and breech-loading rifles were combined, combined with new light infantry tactics and infantry artillery coordination tactics, the army was at least one era ahead of the other feudal forces.

And in today's first large-scale actual battle, such an army has achieved a success far beyond Lin Ziran's own expectations.

For today's victory in the decisive battle in the south, Lin Ziran is sure, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to come over for a decisive battle.

It is precisely because of certainty that I will come.

But he didn't expect it to be so easy!

With just one breech-loading rifled gun, it almost completely suppressed the long-range strength of at least one entire artillery regiment of the enemy, creating a huge advantageous opportunity for one's own front-loading artillery units to come forward and shell the enemy's infantry.

Before the opponent could adjust, their own forward-loading artillery units had already launched a devastating blow to the enemy's infantry line.

At the same time, the 1st Corps on the left flank, under the cover of artillery, launched a fierce attack, cleanly broke the enemy's right flank defense, and then launched a detour to march towards the enemy's center.

The frontal front, as well as the right flank, was also fought extremely smoothly.

The whole battle, not counting the previous deployment of troops, and a large amount of time for the troops to maneuver, only began with the artillery bombardment after the experiment, and it was only about half an hour before and after.

However, in just this half hour, the 6th Division had completely defeated at least 12,000 enemy troops in front of it.

And this kind of defeat is very interesting, not to say how badly the 6th Division inflicted on them, in fact, by the end of the battle, the casualties of the opposing side will not exceed 2,000 people.

However, these two thousand people contained a large number of officers!

The loss of a large number of officers led to a leaderless enemy army, and some of them fled for their lives in chaos, but many more chose to surrender on the spot.

Although a detailed report may be available in a short period of time, it is conservatively estimated that at least 8,000 prisoners of war will be accepted in this battle!

In a way, this kind of defeat is more severe than the traditional defeat of the county guard.

After being defeated under normal circumstances, it is possible to gather the rout and fight again.

But after most of the soldiers were captured, then they couldn't continue to fight, and they had to worry that it wouldn't be long before the army of 8,000 people could instantly become the soldiers of the Sixth Division, and turn around to fight the county guards.

Don't think it's ridiculous, it's actually normal.

Otherwise, how do you think Jian Minggang's army of 60,000 or 70,000 came from, he didn't personally recruit recruits and train such an army, and most of them were actually soldiers from other feudal towns.

Jian Minggang's starting army was only more than 10,000 people, the first to accept Cheng Lingfeng's 10,000 or 20,000 people, then to accept more than 20,000 people after Shao Bing's defeat, and then to accept more than 10,000 people after Feng Haozhong's defeat, and then to accept several thousand people after Li Kun's defeat.

These accepted soldiers constitute the current army of 60,000 or 70,000 in the county guard.

Just like Lin Ziran, there are many prisoners of war in the headquarters of his Sixth Division, but the number was not many before, at most a few thousand.

And now, it is directly more than tens of thousands of Li Kun's original people.

There's no way around it, you can't just recruit new recruits for training, not to mention that it takes too long, even if you want to recruit so many new recruits, it's very difficult.

Basically, the qualified soldiers in many places have already been recruited, and you can't recruit a large number of qualified soldiers if you have money and guns.

For the vast majority of contemporary feudal towns, defeating other feudal towns and accepting prisoners of war is the fastest and most realistic way to expand their army.

Of the 8,000 prisoners of war accepted today, most of them will become part of the Sixth Division, if nothing else.

Thinking of this, Lin Ziran was even more happy.

After this battle, who dares to say that he Lin Ziran can't unify Luo'an County and Nanhai Prefecture?

Others don't know, but it turns out that the rebel general under Li Kun, and now the brigade commander of the Fifth Mixed Brigade under the command of the Sixth Division, Xiao Xiangyu Shaoqing, is watching the groups of prisoners of war being pressed back in frustration.

Thinking of the battle in the morning, he once thought that he would be used as cannon fodder, but he didn't expect that after the Fifth Mixed Brigade led by him rushed up, the process of the battle was extremely smooth, and basically it didn't take much effort to defeat the defenders on the opposite side.

This made Xiao Xiangyu Shaoqing sigh even more!

The boss I followed this time seems to be quite reliable!

Not to mention that it was not as short-sighted and absurd as Li Kun before, and the sixth division that Lin Ziran tossed out was too strong in combat.

According to such a trend, it is only a matter of time before Lin Ziran becomes the county warden of Luo'an County, and when the time comes, he will probably be able to mix with a division commander!

The thought of this possibility made him smile even more.

As long as you continue to mix under Lin Ziran, glory and wealth are at your fingertips!

And glory and wealth, isn't it what I have pursued all my life!

The more he thought about it, the happier he became, and the more he was concerned about the work of containing these prisoners of war, if nothing else, these prisoners of war would be part of the Sixth Division in the future, so the work of containing prisoners of war could not be relaxed.

The battle on the outskirts of Pingdan City seemed to be tense before the war, but no one thought that the real fight would be a matter of one morning, and the army of more than 10,000 county guards outside the city could not hold out even one morning, and then completely collapsed.

This incident even made many gentry in Pingdan City feel incredible when they heard it.

Regardless of the outcome of the victory or defeat, it is normal.

The key thing is that the more than 10,000 troops of the county guard mansion can not hold up for a morning.

After the amazement, a possibility began to appear in the minds of many people!

Looking at this posture, can Lin Ziran really be able to unify Luo'an County?

How long has Lin Ziran been in business, even ordinary people know that when Lin Ziran was in Yongchang for forty-eight years, he was just an ordinary militia battalion officer.

Now you have the strength to unify Luo'an County?

The world is changing so fast!
